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

Xiao Beiguo didn't come back until the late night, and Su Xiaowan fell asleep while waiting.

He didn't wake her up, but went to Old Man Xiao's room to spend the night.

The next morning, Su Xiaowan saw him working in the kitchen and was surprised. "You didn't come back last night?"

"I came back late at night. I didn't want to wake you up, so I stayed at my dad's place for the night."

Xiao Beiguo had already cut the houttuynia cordata. "You can prepare these first. I have also prepared breakfast."

"Okay, let's go early today. We'll have killed the other chicken when we get back. The wounds on Dad's head have all scabbed over. We need to take good care of them. I'll buy a few more later."

Xiao Beiguo hummed, took out five hundred yuan from his pocket and gave it to her, "Keep this, buy whatever you want, don't save."

"Did you earn that in one night?" Su Xiaowan was very surprised.

"Well, Zhiwei and I have discussed that we will not look for work anymore. I will help you at home during the day and make some things to sell at night so you don't have to be so tired."

"But it will be even harder for you. You will have to work day and night, and your body won't be able to handle it."

Thinking that Xiao Beiguo died suddenly in his previous life because he was too tired, there was no way she would agree to it in this life.

"I'm a grown man, so why should I be afraid of being a little tired? Just do your job. I'll only go out every night for the next few days. After being busy for a few days, I need to take a few days off and rest."

Compared to her, Xiao Beiguo felt that all his tiredness was worth it.

"Then you decide. My income is not bad for now. After a while, when the jar of hot and sour beans and peppers are ready, I can continue to sell them. Even if I don't make a lot, it can still cover the family expenses."

Su Xiaowan is very confident in herself. After all, eating is the top priority no matter what time it is.

"Just take care of this, just don't get too tired."

The sun was hot today, so Xiao Beiguo asked Old Man Xiao to look after Xixi and went to the market with Su Xiaowan.

The two of them returned after more than an hour.

Su Xiaowan drank a sip of water, asked Xiao Beiguo to kill the chicken, and she went to clean the buckets.

Just after washing two, Xiao Beiguo's voice came, "Xiao Wan, where did you keep that chicken?"

"I've got the rope tied to it in the chicken coop behind the kitchen. Can't you see it?"

As Su Xiaowan spoke, she stood up and walked over.

"Just a rope, and the chicken is gone."

Xiao Beiguo looked around but didn't see any trace of the chicken.

"Could it be that a weasel stole it?"

Su Xiaowan was a little puzzled. She watched Xiao Beiguo check the rope and moved forward.

"The rope was cut and the chicken was stolen."

"Steal? Who is so brave as to come here?" Su Xiaowan was shocked.

If you want to come in and steal, you have to go into her kitchen, or you can only come from Granny Li's house next door.

But Granny Li and her family are all honest people in the village and they take extra care of them. They would never do such a thing.

"It's hard to say." Xiao Beiguo began to look for clues around him.

Although it has been very hot these days, it is humid here. The water that Su Xiaowan uses for cooking and washing pots would spill out from the kitchen.

After walking for a while, he stopped and saw a few footprints on the wall, which didn't look very big.

"These are children's footprints." Su Xiaowan said, almost guessing it.

"Beiguo, what are you looking for?" Granny Li came out with a cane and asked when she saw him.

"Granny Li, my chickens were stolen. Let's go see if you can find anything." Su Xiaowan responded.

"Is it a yellow hen?"

"Well, did Granny Li see it?"

Granny Li pointed at the firewood pile and said, "I went out to relieve myself last night and saw your family crawling in from here. Not long after, I heard a rooster crowing. I'm afraid those two guys must have taken him away."

Su Xiaowan's expression suddenly changed. She thanked Granny Li and said to Xiao Beiguo, "Let's go to Xiao's house."

How could this be fair? He actually stole things from her house!

Xiao Beiguo's face didn't look very good either, and he went to Xiao's house with Su Xiaowan.

Before entering the yard, I could smell the rich aroma of chicken. When I walked in, I saw some chicken feathers on the ground that had not been cleaned up yet.

Su Xiaowan could hardly suppress her anger, as the chicken feathers looked exactly like the one she bought.

Without any hesitation, she rushed into the kitchen and saw Liu Xianglian standing in front of the stove, with Erdan urging her all the time.

"Grandma, hurry up, if Auntie finds out, there will be nothing to eat."

"Why are you in such a hurry? It's only ten o'clock now. They usually come back around eleven o'clock. By the time she comes back, there won't be any chicken feathers left."

Liu Xianglian was totally unaware of the two people behind her and was praising with a smug look on her face.

"Erdan, you did a good job this time. You have to do this in the future. If she doesn't give us the food, we will go get it and eat it all. See what she can do to us. Then we will have meat to eat every day."

"Then Goudan and I will often go to Aunt San to steal it secretly. This way, we don't have to work and can still eat meat every day." Erdan looked proud and full of fighting spirit.

"No need to take it secretly, it would be better if I just put it all into your mouth!" Xiao Beiguo roared in intolerance.

Liu Xianglian stood up suddenly and saw Su Xiaowan's murderous eyes.

"What are you looking at? I just took your chicken. It's fine to honor your father, but why can't I do the same?"

"Mom, you and my dad have already divorced, and we have already signed a written agreement. You are under the care of my eldest brother!"

Xiao Beiguo didn't want to tell her at all and resisted the urge to beat her up.

"I'm not talking to you about signing a contract. I just know that you are my child, so if you have something delicious, I can eat it!"

Liu Xianglian said in a nonchalant tone, arrogant and proud, "Anyway, you all heard it. We cooked the chicken. It's impossible to get it back!"

"Mom, you guys are going too far!" Xiao Beiguo's face turned blue with anger.

Dealing with such an unreasonable and immoral old man, he couldn't beat or scold him.

"Uncle San, it's just a chicken. You and Aunt San can earn money, so just buy more. We haven't eaten meat for a long time."

Erdan didn't think that his behavior was wrong at all, he just felt that they deserved all of this.

"It seems like you haven't learned your lesson from my last lesson!"

Su Xiaowan said coldly, glanced at Liu Xianglian, and said to Xiao Beiguo, "Go call the police, I lost thirty yuan!"

"I didn't steal the money!" Erdan immediately retorted. He really didn't steal it.

Liu Xianglian didn't believe it and asked quickly, "Erdan, where did you hide the money?" Thirty yuan, all of it was hers!

Looking at his mother's greedy look, Xiao Beiguo said nothing and turned around to call the police.

Su Xiaowan ignored him and just stood there waiting.

In less than half an hour, someone from the police station arrived, dressed in police uniforms, and shouted in a serious manner, "Who is Liu Xianglian?"

"I am, what's the matter, police comrade?"

"Your son called the police and said you beat your husband and instigated your grandson to steal. Please come with us."

Liu Xianglian burst into tears immediately, "Oh my god, how dare this bastard frame his mother? I don't want to live anymore."

As she was about to bang her head against the wall, the policeman grabbed her and said sternly, "Stop making trouble! If you do it again, I'll handcuff you!"
