Transformed into a vicious stepmother, invincible

"Nothing." Qi Decheng's eyes flashed with an elusive light, and he pretended nothing happened and continued to work.

The atmosphere wasn't strange enough to be noticed by others.

Bai Sui'an stepped forward and thanked Li Xi: "The children only came to your place to be measured. Why did I boil eggs for them? It's too expensive."

"The chickens I raise at home lay a lot of eggs, and I brought some to your family."

Li Xi was indeed holding a small bamboo basket in his hand, with six eggs in it. It wasn't a lot, but it showed his thoughtfulness.

This was just right, Bai Sui'an asked Li Xi to take the pears he had packed first.

After getting the size, Li Xi went back to start sewing the clothes. Before leaving, she glanced at Qi Decheng lightly.

In the past, Qi Decheng was like a funny guy in front of his wife, and he always wanted to be conspicuous in what he said and did.

He didn't even notice Li Xi leaving this time, and wondered what he was thinking.

Bai Sui'an didn't ask everyone to help make many parts, but because they had to be delicate, it took a lot of time. The wood was only processed when the sun set on the mountainside.

There is still a lot of material left.

Li Niusan left his tools at the Lin family just in case.

Each person was paid twenty-five cents a day, and everyone who received the wages was very happy, except Qi Decheng.

After everyone left, Bai Sui'an concentrated on piecing together a wheelchair with a hammer in the yard.

There were no screws in this era, only ordinary nails, but Bai Sui'an still reduced the use of nails.

When she made weapons for herself in the past, she had read some ancient books about mechanical engineering. This time, when making a wheelchair, she deliberately made various grooves on the parts. Once they were locked in place, it would be difficult to take them apart.

Ye Lingche just sat in the shade and watched, not feeling his eyes sore, taking in everything about Bai Sui'an.

Her hesitation, serious expression, and earnest look were all imprinted in Ye Lingche's mind.

He never thought that Bai Sui'an would have such a side to him.

I never imagined that one day I would be looking at Bai Sui'an all day long without getting tired of it.

After Lin Yashu prepared the meal, the family ate together and took turns bathing. The Lin family's activities for the day ended.

But tonight was a torment for Qi Decheng.

He was silent all night, before falling asleep

Li Xi finally couldn't help but speak: "I told you before that if you marry me, you won't have children."

"I know." Qi Decheng's voice was low. "I thought you just didn't like children, but weren't you very nice to the two children from the Lin family today?"

"You like children, right?" There was some expectation in his tone, which contrasted with his gloomy expression.

Unfortunately, Li Xi was sleeping with her back to him and didn't care about his expression at the moment.

"If you really want a child, then divorce me. The bloodline of your Qi family cannot be cut off with me."

Li Xi's tone was flat, and Qi Decheng sat up immediately after hearing it.

"I don't mean to separate from you! I just want to know why you don't want children."

"If you don't want it, you don't want it."

After being married for a long time and being accustomed to treating each other with respect, Qi Decheng could no longer get used to Li Xi's indifference.

"I just want to know what you've been through before. You've never told me about this, and I really want to know."

"What's there to know about the past?"

"But you know everything about me. We are each other's only family. Are you still unwilling to accept me?"

In Qi Decheng's opinion, Li Xi was unwilling to tell him about the past because she didn't care about him.

He had been pestering Li Xi for years and finally married her, thinking that Li Xi accepted him.

Li Xi's attitude now was like pouring a basin of cold water on his head, waking him up completely.

There was no movement behind him. Li Xi couldn't help but look back, but he didn't dare to turn around to look at Qi Decheng's expression.

"Did you hear Niu Da and the others talking about the past while working today?" Li Xi said in a slow tone.

"That's all I have to say about my past. I'm afraid you've already heard it all. There's nothing more to say."

"I'd rather hear you say it yourself." Qi Decheng moved closer to Li Xi and naturally lay on top of her.

As a couple of many years, they are already very close to each other. Even if there is a gap between them, he can't help but get close to each other.

A gentle breath sprayed on Li Xi's earlobe. Qi Decheng raised his voice slightly, feeling very aggrieved: "If you don't tell me, I will let you do it, but can you please stop saying angry words? You know clearly that I will not leave you."

"You were the one who turned your face away first." Li Xi raised her hand and gently pushed his face away. "It's hot and humid, don't stick to me."

Qi Decheng, who was pushed away, did not give up and moved closer to hold the person in his arms: "A Xi..."

"Stop it." Li Xi's body stiffened, with his hands in front of him.

Qi Decheng didn't force it, he breathed softly and said, "Go to sleep."

That's it for tonight.

No matter how much he cared about Li Xi's past, he could not ignore her current emotions.

Li Xi closed his eyes, the sound of Qi Decheng's steady breathing behind his head.

It turns out that men are carefree. He was in a bad mood just now, but now he is sleeping as if nothing happened.

Li Xi has become numb over the years, but she always feels palpitations when people ask about her past again.

No matter how much time has passed, she can never forget her act of sacrificing her own relatives for the sake of justice...

Just recalling the original scene, Li Xi's hands couldn't help but tremble.

Today is the day that Ning Heyuan comes to give Ye Lingche acupuncture. After getting up early, Bai Sui'an picked a fruit of a medicinal herb from the space while the children were away.

According to pharmacology books, this herb is called Qizhe Miao. Its upper part looks like a weed and is difficult to be found in the wild. However, its lower part has seven fruits on one vine. The fruiting cycle is long, and the first fruits to be produced have the strongest medicinal properties.

The herb that Bai Sui'an dug already had three fruits. She picked the first one and left the others in the soil.

The fruit of the seven-sting seedling is mostly used to nourish the tendons and veins, but its medicinal properties can also promote the growth of tendons and bones.

It is a medicinal herb that is very effective on Ye Lingche.

It was A Yan who drove the carriage to bring Ning Heyuan over. They arrived very early. Just as Bai Sui'an finished delivering breakfast to Ye Lingche and came out, there was a knock on the gate.

When I opened the door and welcomed the person in, I found that there was another person here - Ji Wei.

The young man helped Ning Heyuan carry the medicine box. After entering the house, he bowed to Bai Sui'an and said, "Madam."

He was wearing the same style of waiter's clothes as A Yan, neatly dressed and serious in attitude. He didn't look like a newcomer to the job, but rather like a veteran.

"Why are you here?" Bai Sui'an went to take the medicine box from his hand.

A Yan stepped forward and took the medicine box in his hand first: "The shopkeeper asked me to help him with the work, so I asked him to bring one with him."

Chang An was eating noodles with Lin Yashu and Lin Rongkang at the table. Lin Rongkang couldn't hold the chopsticks steadily and kept dropping noodles on the ground. Seeing this, Chang An stuck out his tongue and ate all the noodles on the ground in one gulp.

Lin Rongkang stamped his feet: "Bad Chang'an, you stole my food!"

Chang An wagged his tail and used his nose to push his big bowl towards Lin Rongkang, as if he wanted to compensate Lin Rongkang with the bones in his bowl.

Lin Yashu coaxed her brother: "You can't eat it if it falls on the ground. You dropped it yourself, so it doesn't count as stealing."

Lin Rongkang didn't like what he heard. He pouted his lips and said aggrievedly, "I can't have it!"

Ning Heyuan went to look for the children as soon as he entered the house. He walked over to the little kid and took his chopsticks. "Which good kid can't eat noodles? Grandpa is here to teach you."
