Don't worry, I have food, money and space.

Chapter 23 Mother, You Are This

"Aunts, we will make less today so that you can get familiar with it. Once my new stove is built, we will start making more."

Naturally, Qian and Bai had no objections, so they studied very hard.

Before the two of them left, Xia Yanxin said to them, "Aunt Qian, Aunt Bai, before you leave, I have something to tell you. This tomato sauce is an exclusive secret recipe and cannot be leaked. If it is leaked, you will have to pay 10,000 taels of silver as compensation."

"If you two aunts have no objection, please sign this contract. This contract clearly states the responsibilities and obligations of both parties."

This was the first time that Aunt Qian and Aunt Bai had encountered such a situation. They didn't understand why Xia Yanxin did this. Aunt Qian had a closer relationship with the Ye family: "Xin girl, what is this contract for? We have never done anything like this before."

Xia Yanxin picked up the contract and patiently explained: "Aunts, to put it bluntly, this contract is a guarantee for you and me. As long as you sign this contract, your job will be guaranteed, and I can't fire you casually. If I fire you without reason, I will have to compensate you."

"I think the two aunts know that my secret recipe is very rare, so I also need such a guarantee. Besides, I believe that the two aunts will definitely not leak the secret recipe."

Aunt Bai was a very clear-minded person. She stepped forward and pressed her fingerprints without saying a word: "Xin girl, don't worry, I didn't come to your house to work to steal the secret recipe, so I signed this contract."

Aunt Qian finally reacted at this time, and she also pressed her fingerprints readily: "I'm not afraid either. We are all honest people, and we will never do such a thing."

Xia Yanxin was very satisfied with the reactions of the two aunts. Before Aunt Qian and Aunt Bai left, she stuffed a few tomatoes into their arms: "Aunt, this scrambled egg with tomatoes is delicious. It's delicious even if you just wash it and eat it like this."

"Xin, how can you do this? We are eating and taking at the same time." Aunt Qian said embarrassedly.

Xia Yanxin waved her hand and said, "Here, just take it. This is also a special treat I'm giving you."

Aunt Qian and Aunt Bai each went home happily with a few tomatoes.

After seeing the two leave, Xia Yanxin pulled Ye to her room and said softly, "Mother, Xia Baolin is not dead yet. Doctor Wang saved him, but when he gets better, he will become a cripple, and his life will be worse than death."

Ye was shocked at first but then calmed down and said, "What's the harm if we saved him? If he says we made him like that, who would believe him? It's good for him to become a cripple."

Xia Yanxin sighed that Ye's psychological endurance was so strong. She had a vague feeling that such a mother was a real mother. She couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Mom, you are really this, awesome!"

Ye chuckled: "Well done to you, you actually dare to tease your mother, you are really brave."

Seeing that Ye Shi was not affected by Xia Baolin being rescued, Xia Yanxin turned to talk about business: "Mom, someone should come to our house tomorrow to discuss cooperation, and the old Xia family should wake up tomorrow. Mom, we may have trouble tomorrow."

Ye's reaction was quite calm: "Is someone coming to discuss cooperation with you tomorrow? Do you want to take these things to Baiweilou to discuss? Mother doesn't want you to be disturbed while you are discussing."

"Besides, according to what you said, there will be someone coming to reinforce the house tomorrow. Wouldn't that be inconvenient?"

Xia Yanxin comforted Ye: "Mother, there is no other way. We have to come tomorrow so that we can have less trouble in the future. Besides, the things we take out are things that others don't have, so there is no guarantee that others won't miss them."

"If the owner of Baiweilou comes over tomorrow, we can say that those things belong to Baiweilou, and we can save ourselves a lot of trouble."

Ye thought about it for a moment and then figured it out: "Mother knows what's going on, just go ahead and do it."

Xia Yanxin looked at Ye and said, "Mom, I think you have changed. I think you are the real you now."

Ye paused and said, "Xin'er, mother is not from here. I married your father because he saved me. And mother doesn't think your father was born by your grandmother."

Xia Yanxin immediately said seriously: "Mom, where are you from? Why do you suspect that Dad is not from the Xia family?"

Ye shook her head: "Mother no longer has any memory of the past, but recently some images have been flashing through her mind for unknown reasons."

"As for why mother suspects your father, it's entirely because he doesn't look like anyone from the Xia family at all."

"Everyone in the Xia family has single eyelids, but your father has double eyelids. Everyone in the Xia family is mean and selfish, but your father is loyal and smart."

"What you don't know is that your father is very good at reading. Even when it comes to hunting in the mountains, your father learns faster than others. Everyone says that if your father lived in an official family, he would definitely be a man of both civil and military talents."

It was the first time that Xia Yanxin heard about Xia Dajiang from Ye's mouth. For a moment, Xia Yanxin's gossip fire was burning: "Mom, please tell me more about you and Dad."

Ye patted Xia Yanxin's shoulder gently and said, "I'll tell you about mother and father when I have time later, but now, you teach An'er to read first, and mother will go to prepare dinner."

"Oh, by the way, mother, the village chief will come to our house soon to measure the land. I plan to buy all the land near our house, and we will start building the house when the snow melts in the spring."

Ye nodded: "Xin'er, mother has thought about it. From now on, you will be the head of our family. I just need some pocket money. I'm afraid I can't bear it."

Xia Yanxin nodded: "Alright, if you run out of money in the future, just ask me for it."

After the two finished talking, they left Xia Yanxin's room. Xia Yanxin found Xia Chengan and handed him a copy of the Three Character Classic. "An'er, let's start with the Three Character Classic. I'll teach you these few sentences first."

Xia Cheng'an finally waited for Xia Yanxin to come and teach him how to read, so he cherished the time he could spend reading and followed Xia Yanxin's instructions very seriously.

When Ye heard the sound of reading aloud coming from the room, she smiled happily.

"Ms. Ye, Xin, are you home?" Mrs. Ye was cooking lunch in the kitchen when she suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
