When I opened my eyes, I went back to the night when I forced my husband to give birth to a son.

"Xiao Wan, I." Xiao Beiguo tried to explain, but didn't know how to explain.

"So you only believe what you see, right?"

Su Xiaowan's eyes were sore and swollen. She thought that even if Xiao Beiguo didn't like her, he could at least recognize that she really wanted to live with him.

"I know I shouldn't think of you like this. I'm sorry. I apologize."

Xiao Beiguo spoke sincerely, but Su Xiaowan's heart felt like it had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Go to bed. I'm tired."

Su Xiaowan lay down again, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

She could accept that Xiao Beiguo disliked her, or even abused her, but she could not accept being questioned.

She couldn't accept it, either in her past life or in this life.

Having been with him for two lifetimes, Su Xiaowan had never thought about divorce, let alone finding another man.

Xiao Beiguo pursed his lips and looked at Su Xiaowan who had her back to her, feeling very uncomfortable for a moment.

He realized that what he had just said not only hurt Su Xiaowan's heart, but also affected the relationship between the couple.

But the words were out, and for a moment he didn't know what to do to ease the situation.

Su Xiaowan was extremely tired, but she couldn't sleep at all. She felt aggrieved and uncomfortable, and even more confused about the relationship between her and Xiao Beiguo.

For more than an hour, she kept her eyes open and looked at Xixi, and finally she figured it out.

She and Xiao Beiguo were living together, and as long as he had this family and children in his heart, why should she bother with him.

Once you figure things out, you won’t be depressed anymore.

At three o'clock, she stood up and looked at Xiao Beiguo who was working under the eaves. "I will go to the mountain with Sister Ting to work later. Xixi, you stay and watch over me. I won't take you with me."

"I'll go with you." Xiao Beiguo spoke without thinking.

"Xixi is still sleeping. She was frightened at noon. You stay with her."

Su Xiaowan carried a basket, a big bag, and a sickle and walked out.

Before leaving, he reminded her, "Cook rice in the evening. If I come back late, you can braise the meat and cut some lean meat for soup."

Xiao Beiguo agreed and watched her go out as usual, but he felt a little annoyed in his heart.

One afternoon, Su Xiaowan was chatting with Su Ting as usual while picking grass agar-agar.

The two of them collected all the agar-agar grass on the mountain these days, but as time went by, the amount of this thing became less and less.

"Sister Ting, I'm afraid there's nothing here. We have to go look for it later, otherwise it will delay the delivery."

Su Ting raised her hand to wipe the sweat off her face, looked at the places they had been to, and sighed.

"This money is not easy to earn. Boss Song wants a large quantity and the time is tight. It's still a bit difficult for the two of us."

Su Xiaowan nodded, looked at the endless mountains, and came up with an idea.

"Sister Ting, if we find someone to get some jelly grass, will anyone be able to do it?"

"Of course. At this time of year, everyone is idle at home with nothing to do. There are plenty of people who can make money."

Su Ting paused, "But we need to find someone reliable for this matter."

"Indeed, if this is fake, there will be big trouble."

Su Xiaowan frowned. This was really a difficult matter to handle.

"Beiguo is back, how about this? You and him go deliver the goods tomorrow, and I'll go pick them first. It will be better if we have more time in the morning."

Su Xiaowan thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask him when I get back. Sister Ting, can you also help me look around and see if we can find a suitable one?"

"Okay, I'll go back and see if my sister-in-law is willing. She's reliable."

"Row."

The two of them didn't get down the mountain until almost half past six. Su Xiaowan was carrying a backpack, a sack on her shoulder, and holding Houttuynia cordata in her other hand. She was sweating profusely.

Xiao Beiguo had prepared dinner, but Su Xiaowan had not come back yet. He carried Xixi and went along the road to the mountain to look for her.

After crossing the bridge, he saw this scene. He strode forward, put Xixi down and took the bag from her shoulder.

"You hold Xixi's hand, and I'll come."

As he said this, he took her backpack and everything in her hands.

Su Xiaowan said nothing and took Xixi to help Su Ting carry the Houttuynia cordata.

"It's okay, you can hold Xixi, it's not very heavy." Su Ting said with a smile. She was very happy to see that Xiao Beiguo knew how to care for Su Xiaowan.

Xiao Beiguo put the basket on his back and said, "I'll carry it back first and come back soon."

"It's okay, Beiguo, I can do it myself." Su Ting shouted at his quickly walking back.

Xixi looked at Su Xiaowan, who was sweating profusely, and asked in a baby voice, "Mom, are you tired?"

"Not tired, mom makes money, buys delicious food for Xixi and builds a new house."

"Although Xixi wants to live in a new house, she doesn't want her mother to work so hard."

"My daughter knows how much you love your mother, and it's not in vain." Su Ting was very pleased.

Along the way, Xixi asked Su Xiaowan all kinds of strange questions from time to time, and she answered them patiently.

When Xiao Beiguo came back, they had just crossed the bridge. She took the backpack and the bag of grass jelly from Su Ting.

"Xiaowan, you and Beiguo go back first. I'll go back to check on my family and come over later." Su Ting wanted to give the couple some space.

"Sister Ting, come over for dinner. We're having braised pork tonight." I've worked so hard for so long, but I haven't had a good meal yet.

"It's okay, I'll eat the same next time. I'll go back to see the kids. I've been busy these past few days and I've been talking about it."

Su Xiaowan did not force her to stay. She said goodbye and went home separately.

After returning home, Xiao Beiguo put down his things and went to serve the food. As soon as Su Xiaowan washed her face, he shouted, "Eat first, I'll help you later."

Su Xiaowan nodded, carried Xixi into the house, and looked at the braised pork on the table with a strange color, and frowned slightly.

"I'm not very good at cooking this, so I'll follow your method from last time. You can try it."

Xiao Beiguo felt a little embarrassed, and he wanted to do something to make Su Xiaowan happy.

"It's okay, as long as it's cooked." Su Xiaowan was tired and hungry. She served Xixi some rice and started eating.

"How come you got so much jelly grass? Can you sell it all?"

"More than 200 kilograms are delivered to Boss Song's canteen every day. Tomorrow morning, you can help me deliver it. Sister Ting is going to pick some jelly grass. We need a lot of goods every day, and we have almost picked all the jelly grass nearby."

"Okay." Xiao Beiguo looked at Su Xiaowan's face and saw that in less than ten days, she had become thinner.

He picked up a piece of meat and put it in her bowl. "Eat more meat. You've lost weight recently."

Su Xiaowan nodded and ate in silence.

In the evening, the three of us worked on it together, and when we finished, it was almost eleven o'clock.

After taking a shower, Su Xiaowan sorted out the accounts of the past few days before going to bed.

Just after she lay down for a while, Xiao Beiguo came in after taking a shower. Seeing that she was asleep, he turned off the lights and went to bed.

In the dark night, moonlight shines in and falls on Su Xiaowan's profile.

Xiao Beiguo leaned over to her and called softly, "Xiao Wan, can we talk?"
