It's hard to be a stepmother, my disabled husband takes care of my child

This so-called happy mood disappeared when I saw a group of men in the yard.

Forget it, there are more important things that have not been resolved!

Old Man Fan was not in the yard, so Su Man asked how many people there were.

"Where's my uncle?"

"Madam, the uncle is in the room, and the two young masters are also in the room. Is there anything you can help with?"

"No."

After she knew that Old Man Fan was in the room, she prepared to go look for him, but before she took two steps, Fu Yi, who came out of another room, called out to her.

"Madam, the master said he has something to discuss with you, so please come to the master's room."

Su Man frowned, somewhat reluctantly, and finally had to go over with a stern face.

After seeing Su Man's expression change, the people in the yard were afraid to speak.

How to put it, it seems that their lady doesn’t like the master very much and is so unhappy.

Of course, Fu Yi noticed Su Man's expression and couldn't help but sigh for his master.

This was probably the first time that their master was interested in a woman, and this woman was their wife.

Logically speaking, it should be natural for them to have several little kids together in the end.

But the lady is to the master...

Fu Yi closed the door considerately.

Su Man and Fu Xiu were speechless in the room.

Su Man frowned and looked at Fu Xiu who remained silent, feeling a little angry.

"What do you want me to do? Just say whatever you want to say. I still have a lot of things to do."

Fu Xiu had long thought that Su Man would not speak to him nicely when she came in, but he did not expect that she would start by scolding him like this in the first sentence.

He had a headache.

"Do you dislike me so much? Do you need to talk to me like this right from the start?"

"Yes, isn't it obvious enough? I really don't like you." Su Man answered without hesitation.

Fu Xiu's face was gloomy.

"why?"

"Why else? Of course it's because I don't like you. Your waking up has disrupted my peaceful life. Do you think I can be nice to you?"

"What do you mean? You don't want me to wake up? But haven't you been looking for someone to heal me?"

Su Man curled her lips and admitted it directly.

"Because you are the father of the two children, I don't want to make them sad so I can only take care of you, but the premise is that I don't want you to wake up so soon, unless you are willing to give me the two children to raise."

Fu Xiu was silent for a while, but he was not angry at all. Instead, he felt more admiration for Su Man.

If it were anyone else, even if they really had this idea, they would not dare to say it so bluntly and obviously. However, Su Man in front of him admitted it directly. He admired and appreciated Su Man for this very much.

He felt that Su Man was really making him want to explore further.

"These two children are my life too. I can't let you raise them, but..."

"But what?" Su Man heard the concession in Fu Xiu's words and asked directly.

"But you can always maintain the relationship and the way you spend time with your children, and even stay with them for the rest of their lives."

"What are you talking about?" Su Man narrowed her eyes and suddenly felt that there was something wrong with what Fu Xiu said, or rather, she didn't immediately understand what Fu Xiu meant.

Fu Xiu looked at her. Originally, he should have calmly said what he should have said a long time ago. However, when he looked at Su Man, the words that were originally on the tip of his tongue felt a little hot for some reason, and he was unable to say them for a while.

This was the first time in all his years that he didn't know how to start a conversation.

Su Man looked at him irritably.

"Why are you hesitating so much? If there's something you want to say, why don't you just say it quickly? It's annoying to see you dithering."

Fu Xiu paused, and finally spoke. He felt that if he didn't speak out, Su Man in front of him would really leave.

"I mean, we can maintain our current relationship and identity. I can't give you two children, but I need someone to take care of them. You may be a little angry when I say this, but... you should understand what I mean, right?"

Su Man really understood now.

"You mean we can pretend to be a couple? A superficial couple? Just to get what we need?"

"That's right, but..."

"Okay! I promise you, we will each get what we need and not disturb each other!" Su Man interrupted Fu Xiu directly.

Fu Xiu paused again, he hadn't finished saying the word "but" yet.

Unfortunately, Su Man didn't give him a chance to speak and just turned around and left.

Fu Xiu looked at Su Man turning around and leaving, and just remained silent. He really didn't know what to say at this time.

In fact, Su Man felt a little complicated after coming out, but she still felt relieved.

She walked through the yard and returned to the room with an expressionless face. The two children knew she was back, but because they listened to Su Man's words not to leave the room casually, they did not dare to come out until now.

Old Man Fan was also in the room. He also knew that Su Man had returned. He was just about to go out to talk to Su Man when he heard that Su Man was going to look for Fu Xiu, so he waited in the room.

The two children and one old man were so excited to see Su Man come in.

"You're finally back." Old Man Fan looked at Su Man with tears in his eyes. If you didn't know, you would think they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Su Man twitched her lips, "It's just that we haven't seen each other for a while, is it necessary to be like this?"

"You really are such a kid! Aren't you happy at all that I'm waiting for you to come back so excitedly? Don't you think about us at all?" Old Man Fan felt hurt.

Su Man hummed, "Of course I want to see the two children. If I wasn't anxious to see you, there's no way I would have come back. I would have left by myself a long time ago."

Old Man Fan snorted, "In the final analysis, you just can't bear to part with your two children. You don't have an uncle like me at all!"

Su Man was helpless. "You are already in your forties, why are you still arguing with two children? You said you are my uncle, how could I not have you in my heart? Uncle!"

Old man Fan snorted again, but he was actually very happy in his heart, with the corners of his mouth raised.

Oh, I finally heard this girl call him uncle again!

The two children were frightened. They did not miss what their mother said just now. If it were not for them, their mother would not have come back.

So mother doesn’t like their father at all?

"Mom, what did you buy today? When will my hand get better? What did you say to Dad just now?" Xiaobao asked.

He had to ask his mother what she had done just now, and he had to get it clearly!

Although Daddy is very good, Mommy is better, so they must make Daddy better so that Mommy will slowly like Daddy.

"Mother didn't go anywhere. She just went out to buy some things and do some things. I'll give you a surprise after the New Year and let you know what she did today, okay?"

The two children were a little curious, but at this moment they had no time to be curious because they were only thinking about their mother and father.

"Mom, did you tell Dad what happened just now?" Dabao also asked, "We wanted to go out to look for you just now, but we heard you go into Dad's room so we didn't go."

After hearing this, Su Man basically knew what the two children were going to do and what they were going to ask.

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she just gently pinched the cheeks of the two children.

"You two are brats. This is a matter between us adults. You don't need to worry so much."

Xiaobao wanted to speak more, but Dabao spoke first.

"Okay mother, we got it."

Xiaobao, who had telepathy, also understood that his brother seemed to have something else to say to him, so he didn't say anything.

"By the way, girl Man, when will the couple at the door leave? Are they really going to live here long term? I can't do anything with them living here. I feel uncomfortable all over." Old man Fan asked irritably.

Su Man looked at him and said,

"I know you don't like or are not happy about the sudden addition of so many people to your home, but this is the reality and there is nothing we can do about it.

Because this house belongs to the child's father anyway, and he is the child's father's brother. This is the same as the relationship between you and me, do you understand?"

Old Man Fan sighed.

"I understand, but I'm a little uncomfortable with so many people at home all of a sudden."

"Be patient, they won't be able to stay for long."

"Can't stay long? Then when will they leave?" Old Man Fan asked excitedly.

"I don't know the exact time." Su Man shook her head, "But after the Chinese New Year, they will definitely not stay for long. They are still here now because the child's father is unable to get out of bed, otherwise..."

She was very clear that Fu Xiu's identity was not ordinary. If it weren't for his health reasons, he would have passed away long ago.

She also understood that Fu Xiu would take the two children with him when he left, but she already had an idea of ​​what to do.

Not only did she want to open a unique restaurant, she also wanted to open a clothing store. After all, she came from the modern era and had all kinds of clothing styles in her mind. How could she possibly waste them?

The world is big, but making money to eat is the most important thing.

Old Man Fan's eyes immediately lit up after hearing Su Man's words.

"So what you mean is that as long as I get him well soon, he will leave sooner?"

Of course Su Man knew what Old Man Fan meant, but now that the two children were here, she couldn't answer him in person.

"Alright, alright, let's go, we can talk about it later. Let's go to the kitchen first to see what to eat for dinner."

She glanced at the two children, and Old Man Fan understood all at once, and a look of guilt and remorse appeared on his face.

Just now I almost said something bad about my father in front of the two children. That would not be a good thing. The two children are still so young. It is better for them not to know these things for now, so as not to make them feel sad.

"Yes, yes, you are right. It is better to go to the kitchen to see what to eat at this time. I also have to prepare medicine for them."

Old Man Fan said this cheerfully and walked out of the room.

Su Man watched him leave helplessly, and then looked at the two children who seemed a little lost.

"Don't let your imagination run wild, what Uncle and Mother said just now was just a joke, understand?"

She knew that although she had not said it too directly just now, with the two children's intelligence, they must have noticed something.

Dabao: "Mom, we know. We know that uncle has no other intentions."

Xiao Bao also nodded, "Mother, it is enough for us to know that you and father will always be our fathers. You and father will always be our mother and father, right? You will always be by our side, right?"

There was also hope in Dabao's eyes. He wanted to ask these questions, but he didn't dare to.

Su Man looked at the two children with a smile on her face and nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, mother will always be your mother."

As for whether she would stay with the two of them, she had no way of guaranteeing it. She knew Fu Xiu would take the two children away, but she would not follow him.

It's true that she couldn't bear to leave her two children, but she couldn't let herself be tied to a man she didn't like for the rest of her life just for the sake of her two children.

The two children did not notice the hidden meaning of her words, and the heavy stone in their hearts was finally put down a little.

Su Man asked the two children what they had done today before going out to the kitchen.

Old Man Fan was indeed in the kitchen sorting out the medicinal materials he was going to boil. When he saw Su Man coming over, he glanced behind her and was relieved to find that the two children did not follow him.

"The two kids didn't think much of it, did they?"

"I don't think too much, but you must never say these things in front of the children again. They will think too much. Even though they are young, they understand what they should understand."

Old Man Fan nodded guiltily.

"I know, of course I know. I just forgot about it because I spoke too quickly. Don't worry, I will never say anything nonsense in front of the two children. I also feel sorry for the two children. How can I bear to make them sad?"

Su Man shook her head helplessly, but she also knew that what Old Man Fan said was true. After all, she knew how much Old Man Fan loved his two children.

Old Man Fan glanced at the door again, then lowered his voice and asked,

"Then does what I just said make sense? If we cure the child's father sooner, can he leave sooner?"

"You are right to think so, but he will not leave until after the Chinese New Year. So as long as you can make him feel better in the next few days, he can leave a few days earlier. Otherwise, he may have to stay a little longer after the Chinese New Year."

Old man Fan then touched his chin and laughed happily.

"Okay, okay, I got it, I know what to do. Next, I will make sure he gets better soon."

Su Man ignored him and planned to go to the backyard to check on the peppers and sesame seeds she had planted.

Although she didn't have time to take care of it these days, Aunt Mei and the others came to help her whenever they were free, so the peppers and sesame seeds were growing well.
