Transformed into a vicious stepmother, invincible

Just now, Li Niu Er wanted to help Niu San find Bai Sui'an to ask about the wood issue, but after walking a few steps, he heard the two of them talking about Li Xiaomiao.

Recalling what he had said before, he hurried back to the yard to admit his mistake.

"It's over, big brother! I just heard Bai Meizi and Lin Che talking about Li Xiaomiao. They must have been arguing!"

Li Niu Er grabbed Niu Da's arm and shook his head repeatedly: "We thought everything was fine at that time, but now they are quarreling. What should we do if something happens?"

"Don't panic!" General Li Niu calmed the men down. "When Sister Bai comes out later, we'll quickly persuade her. We'll definitely be able to make amends!"

Qi Decheng stopped what he was doing, looked at the two silly brothers, and said with a smile: "What couple doesn't quarrel? They quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. After the quarrel, the relationship will be better!"

Li Niusan looked up and asked, "Have you ever had a quarrel with your husband?"

"Of course not! My wife is beautiful, kind-hearted, well-educated and well-mannered..."

"Come on, come on. Only your soft temper can withstand Li Xi's bad temper. We grew up together in this village. Who hasn't been beaten by her before?" Li Niu Er interrupted.

"That's because she fought well!" Qi Decheng looked up, feeling very proud.

Although he didn't know about his daughter-in-law's childhood, he would never admit that she had done anything wrong.

Li Niu burst into laughter: "It's true that he was right to beat him. When Niu Er was a kid, he saw Li Xi was always alone, so he had to go up to talk to him. He must have said something wrong, so he got beaten. We were never beaten by Li Xi when we were kids."

Li Niu'er didn't remember everything about his childhood. He only remembered that since then he was particularly afraid of seeing Li Xi. He thought she was a shrew and would be beaten to the ground if he said one more word.

He waved his hand, not wanting to talk about the past anymore. "Let's talk about Bai Meizi and Lin Che first. I heard her words were cold, I'm afraid she must be very angry!"

Li Niusan: "That was caused by you and big brother talking nonsense. If I were you, I would have gone in and apologized."

"Wouldn't they know I was eavesdropping? That wouldn't work!"

Qi Decheng said, "It's better than that couple quarreling over what you said, right?"

Li Niuda pulled Niu Er's arm and said, "They are right. We are both responsible for our own actions. Come on, I will accompany you to confess your crime!"

Li Niu Er struggled all the way, what confession? It was just that he said the wrong thing accidentally!

The two of them walked quickly to Ye Lingche's door, and just as they were about to push it open, the door opened from the inside.

Bai Sui'an hugged Ye Lingche horizontally, and the arm supporting Ye Lingche's back was able to open the door.

He held the person firmly in his arms, without his hands shaking at all.

Unexpectedly, there was someone outside the door. Being seen, Ye Lingche's shame, which he had just suppressed, emerged again. He tilted his head slightly into Bai Sui'an's arms, not daring to show it to anyone.

Bai Sui'an raised his eyes, saw the two of them, and smiled politely: "Is there anything I can help you with, brothers?"

The way she held Ye Lingche didn't look like a couple who had a quarrel.

"Oh, we are here to admit our mistake..." Li Niuer was about to admit his mistake.

Li Niuda hit him with his elbow, knocking the words he hadn't finished speaking into his stomach.

"Lin Che shaved his beard? Not bad, hahaha, he's back to the handsome guy he was when he was in our village." Li Niu laughed.

"Just now, Niu San said that the size of a component was not right, so he asked us to ask you."

Bai Sui'an nodded: "Okay, then I'll come over and take a look."

She put Ye Lingche on a chair and prepared a cup of tea within his reach before going to Li Niusan.

Li Niu Er quietly asked Niu Da: "Why did you hit me? It hurts so much."

"The couple are fine now, why are you admitting your mistake?"

Seeing Bai Sui'an being so caring towards Ye Lingche, Li Niu shook his head. "My wife has never treated me like this before. Do I really have to listen to Qi Decheng and have a fight when I get home?"

Li Niu Er said: "No, brother, if you can get rid of your leg disease, your sister-in-law will be able to take care of you like this."

Then Niu Er harvested another elbow of Niu Da.

"With your sister-in-law's temper, if I dare to get sick or in pain, I'm afraid she'll scold me to death!"

After comparing the sizes with Li Niusan, Bai Sui'an ran to the kitchen and took out some more pears from the space. After washing them, he went out and stuffed one for Ye Lingche, and gave the rest to Niu Da and the others.

Qi Decheng wiped his hands, took it and started eating.

"Sister, your fruit is really good, so sweet. Where did you buy it in town? It's not cheap, is it?"

Hearing Qi Decheng say this, the three Niu brothers withdrew their hands that had just reached out for the pear.

"We've already been paid for your work, and you're treating us with such expensive fruit, Bai Mei! That's not right!"

Bai Sui'an blinked. She just felt that everyone was tired after being here for so long, so she wanted to treat everyone to some fruit.

But she forgot that the fruits here are very expensive, and the delicious ones are even more expensive.

"I picked these outside, and they're free." Bai Sui'an said.

After hearing what she said, Li Niuda and the others dared to take the fruit and eat it.

It was a rare opportunity to eat fresh and delicious fruits, which were sweet and tasty, and everyone was in a much happier mood.

"Where did you pick this? I'll get some home for Goudan and his mother to try." Li Niu said.

"There weren't many left when I picked them earlier, so I picked all the good ones. If you want, I'll pack some for you to take home later."

We are not all bad people. Giving gifts to neighbors in the same village can also bring them closer together, so that others will be more willing to help when something happens in the future.

This is all human nature.

Qi Decheng was just as impolite now because he had tried the pigtail soup before: "Okay, I'll ask your sister to make you some purse sachets or something like that."

When Li Niuda heard this, he immediately said, "Qi Decheng, are you still doing favors for your wife?"

"What's the big deal? My wife said she's always liked Bai Meizi and treats her like her own sister!"

"Then I'll talk to my wife about it later. She can also do me a favor!" Li Niu said.

Only Li Niu Er felt something was wrong when he heard the words "sister".

"I remember Li Xi has a younger sister, right?" Li Niu Er said.

Qi Decheng was puzzled: "Really? I haven't heard her say that."

Li Niu thought about it and it seemed to be true. "You came to the village late, so it's normal that you don't know. Li Xi did have a sister before, and it seems he also had an older brother? What was his name, Li Zhiwen? Later I heard that his father took his older brother and sister away, leaving her alone in the village."

"Why would they let Sister Xi stay in the village alone? How old was she at that time?" Bai Sui'an felt something was wrong.

Either you take only the older children with you, or you take them all with you, or you leave the two girls at home. Why would you take the son and the younger one with you, but not the one in the middle?

Li Niu Er did have some impression of this incident.

"Li Xi was fourteen at the time, and she seemed to have found a good family to marry. But for some reason her father ran off with someone, and the matchmaker who came to talk to her about marriage was beaten away. She's really old and fierce."

"Didn't her father explain the reason when he left?"

Li Niusan was learning a skill in the town at that time and was not aware of this matter.

Li Niuda often worked outside with his father at the time and heard a lot of gossip. He told everything he knew:

"The main thing is that no one saw Li Xi's father leave. When they found out, Liu Xi was crying. When others asked her what was wrong, she said her father had taken people away and didn't want her anymore."

Qi Decheng said nothing. As he listened to everyone talking, his face became darker and darker.

Li Niu Er added: "Everyone wants to know why, but Li Xi doesn't know. No one has seen her family outside, so no one can ask."

This is mysterious.

But Qi Decheng looked unhappy, so Bai Sui'an didn't ask any more questions. She just tried to smooth things over and asked everyone to continue sawing wood. She went in to pack the pears for everyone.

There was not much time left, and everyone wanted to help Bai Sui'an finish the work as soon as possible, so they stopped chatting and worked hard.

Occasionally, Li Niu Da would sigh to Ye Lingche about Bai Sui'an's good qualities and praise Ye Lingche for his good taste in choosing a wife, which made Ye Lingche blush.

"If you ask me, Lin Che is still young. He has been married to Bai Meizi for two years, but he still gets embarrassed so easily." Li Niu joked.

Li Niusan said, "It's obvious that Lin Che is fair-skinned, but turns red when exposed to the sun."

After taking a look, the others realized that Ye Lingche was indeed white.

Qi Decheng had already calmed down and was back to his usual talkative self. "Is it possible to look this white after growing a beard longer? I see Lin Che goes out hunting every day, and he doesn't look any darker."

Being praised by a group of grown men, Ye Lingche felt a little embarrassed. He put his fist to his nose and coughed softly, saying, "No, it's all white after I got sick. It was dark before."

Bai Sui'an prepared four portions of pears and brought them out. He packed eight for Qi Decheng and four more in each box for the three Niu brothers. They all had families and children, so there were more people.

After putting everything in place in advance, Bai Sui'an also went to saw the wood blocks.

Ye Lingche originally thought that Bai Sui'an was paying people to do the work and he was just watching from the side, but he didn't expect that Bai Sui'an would also get involved.

She even did a lot of it. She sawed and polished the important parts herself and then put them together.

It seems that Bai Sui'an is very concerned about the wheelchair issue.

Ye Lingche's heart was moved. Bai Sui'an was really good now, and he was nice to everyone...

He lowered his head and sighed. He didn't dare to ask for anything in his current situation. He just wanted his family to live in harmony and happiness.

After a long time, the two children were sent back by Li Xi. Lin Rongkang shook his head and ran to hug Bai Sui'an's thighs when he came back, and shouted crisply: "Mom~"

Bai Sui'an was covered in sawdust and his hands were dirty. He could only smile and say, "Mom is dirty, don't carry me up."

The little kid finally let go, then pointed at Lin Yashu who was walking towards them, and said excitedly: "Auntie Xi just boiled eggs for us~ and helped my sister tie her braids, my sister looks pretty~"

Bai Sui'an looked up and saw the little girl standing shyly not far away.

It was the first time for her to use such a whip and she was worried that it would not look good.

The stepmother's eyebrows curved and she smiled: "Why is my little girl so pretty? She is so lovable."

Lin Yashu lowered her head, blinked, and said embarrassedly, "Then I'll show it to Dad too."

Li Xi stood beside Qi Decheng and wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief.

Qi Decheng smiled, but for some reason it was a little bitter. He leaned closer to Li Xi and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Why don't we have a child too?"

Yes, Qi Decheng has always wanted a child, but Li Xi didn't want to.

After hearing what Qi Decheng said, her expression changed and she asked, "Why did you suddenly think of this?"
