I became a vicious stepmother and I went to the sea to feed my three children.

After staying on the island for a while, they went back.

After all, there are three little ones at home. They originally planned to go to the island to take a look, but they didn't expect to waste a lot of time.

After returning, Bai Qingyao saw three little ones waiting at the door. There was a furry tail behind them, and it was obviously Xiaobai.

Bai Qingyao didn't let it show its face, so it simply showed its tail, swaying it back and forth, looking very leisurely.

As soon as she reached the door, the three little ones saw her. Their sleepy eyes instantly brightened and they ran towards her.

"Auntie——"

When Xiaobai heard the voices of the three little ones, he was so scared that his tail twitched, and then the tail was retracted from outside the door with a "whoosh". Not long after, he saw an eye slowly appearing from behind the door, with a full sense of stealth.

When Xiaobai met Bai Qingyao's gaze, he was so scared that his tail almost stood up.

'Ouch~'

Bai Qingyao: ...

I don't know why, but this wolf seems to be very afraid of people.

noob:……

Woo woo woo, it's not afraid of people, it's just afraid of the big devil beside Bai Qingyao. The big devil trains it all day long. Thinking about those days, the wolf's life is hopeless.

However, Bai Qingyao didn't say much, she looked down at the three little ones and asked, "Why aren't you playing in the yard?"

"Wait for mother."

In the past, Bai Qingyao always took them with her when she went out to set up the stall. Today was the longest time they had been away from Bai Qingyao, so they couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Come on, I've picked some fruit for you. Come inside and I'll wash them for you."

The three little ones followed Bai Qingyao like little tails, but Gu Yichen was alone.

Seeing this, Gu Zexuan, who was originally following Bai Qingyao, subconsciously slowed down his pace and walked to Gu Yichen's side.

"Ah Xuan, what's wrong?"

"Father..."

Gu Zexuan raised his little head and looked at Gu Yichen with a complicated expression, "Dad, does Mommy not like you anymore?"

Hearing this, Gu Yichen's steps suddenly stopped, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed across his face.

"Ah Xuan, why do you think so? How could it be possible?"

Unfortunately, these words did not comfort Gu Zexuan at all, but instead made him frown.

"Dad, when you were still at home, Mom was really attached to you."

Although my mother didn't treat them very well at that time, she would still put in some superficial effort for my father's sake. But now, my mother doesn't even get close to my father.

You must not like it anymore.

"Dad, is it because you've become ugly that Mom doesn't like you anymore?"

"Dad, why don't you think of a way to remove the scars on your face? Then Mom will like your face again."

In the past, Bai Qingyao often talked about how pretty Gu Yichen's face was. Gu Zexuan had already started to remember it at that time and has kept it until now.

"If this continues, will my mother leave us? We don't want her to leave."

Listening to Gu Zexuan's analysis, Gu Yichen really fell into silence. After a while, he lowered his eyes to look at Gu Zexuan and spoke tentatively.

"Ah Xuan, who told you this? ...Did your mother tell you?"

Gu Zexuan shook his head, not mother.

"I saw it myself."

Gu Yichen:?

What did he see? How come he didn't see anything?

"Tie Niu's parents in the village were like this. Tie Niu even told me that his mother married him because he was good-looking. But later on, Tie Niu's mother disliked his father because he was old and ugly, and she no longer liked him."

"Father, do you think you are old and ugly?"

Gu Yichen:?!

What an old and ugly person!

What a mess this is.

Tie Niu knew that the situation of Tie Niu's family was indeed special. Tie Niu's mother was the only bloodline of their family. Tie Niu's mother's father wanted to find a live-in son-in-law, but at that time Tie Niu's mother fell in love with Tie Niu's father, and the two of them got together.

As for what happened later, he had no idea.

Now after hearing what Gu Zexuan said, he was completely confused. What a mess! His situation was completely different from Bai Qingyao's.

"Ah Xuan, do you want to go to school?"

Gu Zexuan slowly raised his little head, and a question mark appeared on his head. He didn’t say this?

Gu Yichen glanced at him. Axuan was already seven years old and had reached the age for enlightenment. Moreover, if he returned later... it would be time to find a school for him to be enlightened, otherwise, he would not even be able to use idioms.

"think."

Although he didn't know why Gu Yichen suddenly changed the subject, he nodded without hesitation.

"My mother told me before, but I haven't found a suitable husband for me yet."

They live in the village, and there is no good teacher at all. The father and son in the town... Bai Qingyao doesn't know their character, so she has to investigate it clearly before making a decision.

Gu Yichen glanced at Bai Qingyao's figure in the yard and nodded, "I'll take care of this matter. Let's go in too."

Gu Zexuan's little face was full of seriousness. He nodded and followed Gu Yichen in.

As for what happened just now, Gu Yichen interrupted him and temporarily fooled him.

"Ouch—"

"Sister, what kind of fruit is this? Why is it so sour?"

As soon as Bai Qingjiang arrived in the kitchen, he saw a plate of yellow slices in front of Bai Qingyao. He reached out and took a piece, and stuffed it into his mouth without waiting for Bai Qingyao to speak.

He spat it out right after chewing it, and sour water kept coming out of his mouth.

Seeing his expression, Bai Qingyao couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Second brother, this is a pineapple. I haven't processed it yet, so of course it's sour. Can't you see the three little ones are still eagerly waiting?"

Bai Qingjiang then turned around and saw the three little ones looking up at him in unison. He scratched his head in embarrassment.

The food has been so good these past two days that he subconsciously thinks that everything his sister has is delicious.

"Second uncle, you are so impatient~"

'Crack--'

Bai Qingjiang felt that his majestic image had been completely shattered in the hearts of the three little ones.

His image...

……

Peach Blossom Town

Hongshi Wharf is close to Dayuan Village and can be said to be an important transportation center.

At this moment, the crowd was bustling, and many workers were carrying large bags of sandbags and hurriedly unloading things from the dock. Some big men had dense beads of sweat on their foreheads, but they didn't care. They just picked up the sweat towel hanging around their necks and wiped it casually twice, then turned around and started to move the goods again.

“Delicious and fragrant seafood noodles~”

On the road closest to the pier, there are many vendors along the street, and one of them, a small cart with wheels, is particularly eye-catching.

I saw steam coming out of the noodles, and one or two customers stopped in front from time to time. Not long after, the young lady in front of the stall scooped up a big bowl full of noodles and poured rich soup on it. The noodles exuded a rich aroma that spread throughout the entire pier.
