I became a stepmother and got rich with my cute baby.

Chapter 9: Good boy, call me mom and I'll give you food

"Okay, let's split up." The village chief made the final decision.

He patted Cheng Size's shoulder lovingly, looked at Old Cheng and the other man, and said, "Qian and the two children each have two acres of land. Come with me to get a notarization."

"No! We only have nine acres of land in total. How are we going to live if six acres are taken away at once?" Cheng's mother objected loudly, her face full of reluctance.

"Humph!" The village chief snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "For several years, Qi'an has been working hard and cultivating the land for the Cheng family. He deserves these two acres of land."

"As for the two children, as the bloodline of your Cheng family, it is only natural that they should each get two acres of land. Since you don't want to raise any offspring, then give the land to them. That's the only way to make sense!"

The Cheng family couple was unwilling: "But, but..."

Village Chief: “That’s it!”

Song Wanqing's eyes sparkled and she couldn't help but give the village chief a thumbs up.

Seeing the village chief's firm attitude, Ye Qian was so angry that her teeth were itching. She didn't expect that not only did he fail to get rid of Song Wanqing, but he made things difficult for her. It was really abominable.

Afterwards, the village chief went to comfort Cheng Qian'an. He was frightened when he saw his blood-stained clothes. He scolded the Cheng family and allocated an acre of land to him. The old Cheng family dared not say anything and could only swallow this loss.

After all, the crime of harming offspring is not a light one!

After this incident, Dabao's attitude towards Song Wanqing changed slightly. Although he was still not close to her, he would occasionally call her mother in a shy manner, which made Song Wanqing laugh.

The sky is vast and the Milky Way is far away.

Inside the house, the young man lying on the shabby wooden bed had his black eyelashes trembling and slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at the moonlight outside the window, then raised his hand as if to touch the moon, his dark eyes clear.

"Qian, are you awake?" A figure appeared outside the door, standing against the light, with a soft halo falling on her. The girl's voice was soft, as clear as water sliding over moss, which made Cheng Qian'an's mind swayed.

"Song, Wan, Qing?" He murmured softly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing that Cheng Qian'an looked strange, Song Wanqing quickly stepped forward to check him.

But her feet were wet, and she was caught off guard and fell on Cheng Qian'an.

"boom!"

Cheng Qian was pressed down by her and hit the back of his head again.

Injury upon injury.

"..." Song Wanqing was stunned for a moment.

Does anyone believe her when she says she really didn't mean it?

Cheng Qian'an covered the back of his head, his dark eyes looked at Song Wanqing in confusion, and said, "My wife, it hurts!"

He lowered his eyebrows, and his eyelashes cast a faint shadow on his eyelids. As his eyes moved, there seemed to be a little watery light in the depths of his pupils, making him look very pitiful.

"I'm sorry." Song Wanqing apologized decisively.

She hugged his body tenderly, gently stroked his head like coaxing a child, and said softly, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt. I'll apply some medicine to you later and it won't hurt."

As he said that, Song Wanqing guiltily asked Naituanzi to exchange the medicine for his wounds.

Cheng Qian'an's cheeks flushed with shame when she suddenly embraced him. He stammered, "Mom, Madam?" The fragrance from her body lingered around his nose, making him at a loss.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I'll find some medicine." Thinking that he was in great pain, Song Wanqing loosened his hand, pretended to rummage in the cabinet, and took out the medicine to apply it to Cheng Qian'an.

The warmth dissipated and came back again, but it only took a moment for Cheng Qian'an's mood to fluctuate.

He unconsciously covered his chest and thought distressedly, his heart seemed a little strange, was he sick?

"Come, lower your head." The gentle voice made Cheng Qian'an lower his head obediently and let Song Wanqing fiddle with him. He had no idea that his family was so poor that they couldn't even afford to cook, so where did she get the medicine from?

……

The moon is on the branches, and I can’t sleep all night.

The next day, Song Wanqing took the copper coins she got from the black doctor to go to the city to buy some groceries. When Erbao found out, he followed her coquettishly. Although Dabao also wanted to go, he stayed at home to take care of Cheng Qian'an who was injured.

Before leaving, Song Wanqing touched Cheng Size's little head and coaxed him, "Take good care of daddy at home, and we will bring you candied haws when we come back."

"Really?" Cheng Size is a child after all. His eyes lit up when he heard that, and his tone was full of anticipation.

Suddenly she realized what was happening and said proudly, "I don't want your candied haws."

But after he said this, he pursed his lips in annoyance, and it was obvious that he was very conflicted.

"Okay, forget it if you don't want it." Song Wanqing teased him deliberately, turned around and went out with Erbao in her arms.

"Hey!" Looking at her disappearing back, Cheng Size said angrily, "Don't ask me again...bad woman!"

But this time, there was no disgust or hatred, only grievance.

When I arrived at the market, it was not as lively as I had imagined.

Refugees gathered on the streets, and there were very few vendors calling out, and if you were not careful you would have to worry about your goods being stolen.

"Boss, please be merciful. My mother and I have finally escaped here and we just want to survive." The pale-faced woman, holding a thin little boy, begged the owner of the rice shop.

"Get out! In this world, who isn't running for their life? Who doesn't want to live? If I give it to you for free, others will also scramble for it. I will not be able to continue my business anymore!" The boss drove them away impatiently.

He glanced at the refugees around him who were eyeing him covetously, and his expression became even colder.

Seeing this scene, Song Wanqing frowned slightly. There was still half a year before the princes rebelled and the bandits rose up. If she wanted to resolve her worries, she had to speed up.

She weighed the money in her hand, bought four strings of candied haws, and used the rest to buy vegetables and a few chickens.

Nowadays, prices are gradually rising and many people can no longer afford to eat, let alone meat with a long breeding period.

After returning home, seeing Cheng Size's frequent peeking, Song Wanqing couldn't help laughing at his expectant look. Holding a candied haws, she came to Cheng Size, with a hint of temptation in her voice.

"Good boy, just call me mom and I'll give you food~"

"I don't..." Cheng Size lowered his brows and was about to refuse, but he saw Song Wanqing eating a candied haws in front of him.

"Hmm, delicious." Song Wanqing's face showed undisguised joy.

Cheng Size was like a kitten with its fur standing on end. He stared at her angrily for a moment, then compromised and said, "Mother."

"Speak louder, I can't hear you." Song Wanqing curled his lips, his eyes full of interest.

"Mom!" Cheng Size shouted with his eyes closed.

A real man can bend and stretch. He doesn't really agree with this woman! Humph!

"Hey, so good~" Song Wanqing gave him a new candied haws. She blinked her clear and beautiful eyes and said jokingly, "Eat it, this one is yours."

Cheng Size held the new candied haws and looked at Song Wanqing's obviously teasing smile, with two blushes on his cheeks.

"Hahahahahahahahaha!" Erbao, who had been watching the whole process, fell into Song Wanqing's arms while eating a candied haws, laughing.

"Hmph!" Cheng Size took a big bite of the candied haws. The sweetness in his mouth made him excited.

Well, it would be nice if bad women weren't bad.

Inside the house, Naituanzi's excited voice rang out.

[Mother, I have gained a lot of merit now. I have good news to tell you~]
