Transformed into a vicious stepmother, invincible

Ye Lingche and Lin Che...

The two names are similar, but according to the original body's memory, the seventh prince has no children.

Bai Sui'an did not suspect the man in her family. Now her family was living a stable life, so she did not need to be suspicious.

"We'll see later. I want to rest at home and spend time with my children these days. After the new county magistrate takes office in a few days, I should come out again to accept bounty orders and earn money." Bai Sui'an said.

"What if the young master of the Wan family comes looking for you?"

"Tell him to wait. Maybe I'll go find him in a few days with some rare medicinal herbs."

Baili Mo raised his eyebrows: "Why do you have so many treasures?"

Bai Sui'an spread his hands and said, "There are indeed many good things hidden in our village."

"Haha." Baili Mo didn't delve into it any further. After all, she had already noticed that Bai Sui'an was a prominent figure, and everyone had some secrets that had to be told.

Bai Sui'an took a lot of money with him today, and wanted to buy a set of clothes for every child in the family, so he asked Baili Mo to give Lin Rongle a morning off.

Baili Mo also changed into men's clothes to go out with Bai Sui'an.

When Ji Wei first saw Baili Mo, he thought he was Bai Sui'an's husband and greeted him with a bow, "Hello, Master."

Lin Rongle raised his head sharply, quickly squeezed in between his stepmother and his master, and said, "This is my master!"

"Ah!" Ji Wei shrank back.

Bai Sui'an patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "It's okay, let's go. Go shopping with me today and I'll pay you."

"No, no need. Madam has already found a job for me. You don't need to pay me."

Ji Wei refused repeatedly, but Bai Sui'an insisted, and the others did not object, so they accepted the wages given by Bai Sui'an.

I could earn fifty cents in the morning just by accompanying you shopping and helping you carry things.

At first, Ji Wei thought it was too much, after all, he could have a bowl of vegetarian noodles for only two cents.

But Bai Sui'an really didn't bother to be polite with him. He bought a lot of things along the way and let Ji Weiti take care of them all.

At first, they were all simple things. Bai Sui'an wanted to buy new clothes for the children, so he went directly to the clothing store.

But Baili Mo told her that ready-made clothes were expensive, so if she wanted them, she could just buy cloth. She could save some money by making them herself or paying someone to make them for her.

Bai Sui'an thought it made sense.

The linen cost 50 wen per foot, and she picked two colors, one dark blue and one red.

Make dark blue clothes for the men and boys in the family, and then make a set of red clothes for the little girl.

Bai Sui'an felt that his little girl was straightforward and the color red suited her very well.

She used the cloth to paint on several children and asked, "What do you think of this color?"

The little girl was a little embarrassed: "Is it too red?"

"No, Mom thinks this suits you very well. From now on, you can see our beautiful little girl in the crowd at a glance."

Lin Yashu rubbed her hands and said softly, "Okay then, Mom, can you wear the same clothes as me?"

Originally, Bai Sui'an hadn't planned to buy any for herself, after all, she already had a lot of dresses at home. But when she heard the little girl say that she wanted to wear the same dress as her, her heart felt as sweet as if it were filled with honey.

"Okay."

It was time for the blue cloth again. Lin Rongle didn't choose. When his mother asked him to buy it for them, he nodded.

Seeing that his brother nodded, Lin Rongkang had no objection.

"What about Ji Wei? Do you like the color of this fabric?" Bai Sui'an asked.

Ji Wei was stunned and couldn't believe it: "Is there still one for me?"

"Of course."

While Ji Wei was moved, Baili Mo asked, "What about mine?"

"You." Bai Sui'an glanced back and pointed at a piece of crescent-white cloth behind him and asked, "How about this? It suits you very well. I'll make you two sets."

One set for men and one set for women.

As long as Bai Sui'an is willing, it's fine. Baili Mo put his arm around her shoulders and said with a smile, "You're just kidding. You don't have to prepare anything for me. I don't lack clothes."

The two of them looked very intimate. Lin Rongle knew that her master was a woman, so she didn't say anything.

But Lin Yashu didn't know that the little girl clenched her hands tightly and walked over to pull her stepmother's hand: "Mom, who are we going to find to make this cloth after we buy it?"

There is a tailor in the shop. You can buy something and ask them to make it for you. Maybe you can even bargain for a lower price.

Thinking of this, Bai Sui'an asked his servant to help him get out sixteen feet of blue cloth and eight feet of red cloth.

A total of one tael and two hundred wen.

When he was about to ask the shopkeeper about the price of ready-made clothes, a familiar figure came into Bai Sui'an's sight.

Li Xi came in carrying a small bamboo basket and spoke to the shopkeeper, "Aunt Qiu, I've finished the handkerchiefs you asked me to add patterns on. Please take stock of them."

"okay."

The shopkeeper took the bamboo basket and carefully examined the handkerchief inside.

Li Xi looked around and met Bai Sui'an's gaze.

The former smiled, glanced at the pile of cloth in front of Bai Sui'an and the children around him, and said, "Little sister, are you making new clothes for the children at home?"

Before, Bai Sui'an called her sister, but now she just called Bai Sui'an little sister.

We don’t communicate much, but I can tell that she is a good sister.

Bai Sui'an nodded: "Yes, I want to ask the shopkeeper how much silver it costs to make the clothes."

The shopkeeper looked up and was about to answer when Li Xi answered first: "Just make it for me. We're from the same village. It'll be convenient for me to give it to you after I'm done. You can also see if it looks good or needs any modification."

Aunt Qiu glanced at Li Xi unhappily and said, "Are you trying to steal my business right under my nose?"

"What are you fighting for? This is my sister. If she knew I could help her, it wouldn't be your turn." Li Xi smiled and winked at Bai Sui'an.

"My fee is the same as Aunt Qiu's, but I can help you embroider more patterns. After all, it's children's clothes, so they look better."

"Thank you, sister!" Bai Sui'an thanked her and pulled Ji Wei to his side. "This little guy is going to stay in town to work. Can you help measure his size first?"

It was the first time Li Xi met Ji Wei and she had no idea where the child came from, but since Bai Sui'an had asked, she didn't ask any more questions.

Li Xi borrowed a tape measure from the store and helped Ji Wei measure his size.

She was going back to the village after paying the money, so she took back the fabrics that Bai Sui'an had bought and let Bai Sui'an and others continue shopping.

The two older children had no idea how much money their stepmother had, so they didn't dare say anything when they saw something on the street. Only Lin Rongkang was so innocent that he would point and buy something as soon as he smelled something fragrant.

This time, Lin Rongkang saw the malt candy and specifically asked for it: "Mom! I've never had curly candy before! I want some!"

Lin Rongle said helplessly: "Rong Kang, you just ate the roast chicken."

A roast chicken was not small. Although it was shared by four people, the three big ones intentionally ate less, and most of the meat went into Lin Rongkang's stomach.

"It's okay, candy doesn't take up space. Mom will buy some and you can eat it together."

Bai Sui'an dotes on his children very much. Although the price of sugar in this country is not cheap, it is okay to buy some candy for the children for a few dozen cents. They are just daily snacks and are not eaten often.

After buying it, Bai Sui'an fed one into Baili Mo's mouth.

The latter put it in his mouth and asked with a smile: "You have reserved my share of this child's stuff."

"We've already bought it, let's eat it together." Bai Sui'an said.

Whenever there was something delicious on the roadside, Bai Sui'an would buy some for the child to share. She was not greedy, so she basically didn't eat much, but Lin Yashu would always share some with her, so she also ate a little.

In addition to buying food, Bai Sui'an also bought a pair of new shoes for each of the four children. He bought them for the children if he liked them without blinking an eye.

The three older children couldn't stop them no matter what. The most flattered one was Ji Wei. He came out to help carry things. Not only did he get a lot of food, but he also got new clothes and new shoes.

After accepting the new shoes Bai Sui'an bought for him, he looked at the pair of straw sandals on his feet, his eyes reddened, and he knelt down in front of Bai Sui'an again.

"Madam, you have been so good to me. I will definitely repay you when I become successful!" He spoke with tears in his eyes.

Maybe he was thinking of his mother, or maybe it had been a long time since he met such a generous person.

Only after struggling in the slums for a long time will you realize that you can survive without fighting.

"Don't kneel before me." Bai Sui'an pulled him up again. "If you really want to repay me, please help me take care of Rong Le in the town. He's studying alone in town and doesn't have many friends. Just play with him more."

These words left both children stunned.

Ji Wei knew Rong Le, but Rong Le was always serious and only gentle with her younger brothers and sisters.

So he didn't go up to her.

Now hearing what Bai Sui'an said, Ji Wei looked at Lin Rongle cautiously.

Lin Rongle looked at his stepmother helplessly: "I'm studying with my master, how can I have time to play?"

Baili Mo flicked his forehead and said, "You're out here to play, aren't you? Don't make me sound so cruel. As long as you meet the academic standards, you can play as much as you want."

"Then I will too..." Lin Rongle glanced at Ji Wei secretly.

Seeing the other person staring at him, he turned his head away uncomfortably and said, "I will help mother take good care of Ji Wei."

Only then did Bai Sui'an realize that Lin Rongle's personality was very similar to Lin Yashu's, and he was also a child who was not good at expressing himself.

In the eyes of adults, it can be seen that Ji Wei is honest and kind-hearted.

Bai Sui'an just wanted to help find some close playmates for the children while they were still young. After all, everything would be different when they got older.

Ji Wei is filial and has a strong character. Although he almost did something wrong, he was able to turn back in time and knew how to be grateful.

"What's the point of helping or not? I'm letting you play together, not asking you to raise a child." Bai Sui'an joked.

"Yeah, I'm in town, I'll take care of the kids." Baili Mo echoed.

Her eyes fell on Bai Sui'an. As they traveled together, she had a better understanding of Bai Sui'an's character.

She has good skills, a good temper, and is beautiful. She has good conditions and does not look like an ordinary country peasant woman.

In addition, considering how lavishly Bai Sui'an spent money on this purchase, Baili Mo could basically conclude that Bai Sui'an must be from a wealthy family.

It’s interesting. Both of this couple have prominent identities, and their children must be from prominent families as well.
