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

Xu Zisheng muttered something, then his eyes lit up. "Eatable?"

"uh-huh--"

Bai Qingyao nodded and changed the subject, "Brother Xu, I came here today to discuss with you. Now that the bridge on the island has been built, we can start building the workshop."

"You are a major shareholder, what are your thoughts?"

"I think so……"

When Xu Zisheng heard the serious matter, he became slightly serious and continued speaking.

Listening to his words, Bai Qingyao nodded and said, "I have another idea. Brother Xu can find someone who is good at management to go to the workshop so that he can supervise it."

Xu Zisheng frowned, and Bai Qingyao continued speaking.

"I'm not good at management, so Brother Xu, just consider this as helping me."

He said he was helping, but in fact it was also to comfort Xu Zisheng's heart.

After all, he is a major shareholder. If he wants to invest, he naturally needs to place people he trusts in the company. Now that she has said it, Xu Zisheng doesn't have to worry anymore.

Moreover, she originally thought so too. Since they were collaborating, they should supervise each other.

"Okay, I'll send someone to the island later. Also, if you need anything, just let me know."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely ask if you need me."

Building a workshop is not a small project, and Xu Zisheng's help will definitely be needed.

"Now, can you tell me what pig offal can be used for?"

In contrast, he was more interested in this.

After all, Bai Qingyao said it was a good thing, although... well, the taste of those pig offal was really horrible, but Bai Qingyao said it was edible, so he was still very curious.

"In fact, pig offal can be eaten. As long as you clean it and braise it, it goes well with rice. The taste is definitely not inferior to braised pork."

He had eaten Bai Qingyao's braised pork before. The taste was so good that after eating it once, he would never be able to eat any other braised pork again.

"If Brother Xu is interested, why not come to my house for dinner tonight? It's a good opportunity to visit the island."

He has not seen the bridge since it was built. As a major shareholder, he has to inspect it in person to feel at ease.

"Then I would be disrespectful."

He was very busy during this period and did not go to Bai Qingyao's house. After Master Cheng came back, he boasted to him that Bai Qingyao had made a lot of delicious food during this period, and he must go to taste them.

"Then I'll take my leave first. I still have some things to catch up on."

"it is good."

Xu Zisheng nodded and stood up to see her off.

After Bai Qingyao left, he also went to prepare gifts. After all, he couldn't go to Bai Qingyao's house empty-handed.

After buying the spices needed for stewing, Bai Qingyao took the things and walked towards Dayuan Village.

When they were halfway there, Bai Qingyao looked around and saw that there was no one around. Then she found a place with dense weeds, temporarily sheltered herself, and took all the things out of the space.

She couldn't finish eating two sets of pig offal tonight, so she planned to take them with her when she opened her stall tomorrow.

If you only sell seafood noodles, you will get tired of it one day, so you need to change it up a bit.

Halfway through her walk, she suddenly stopped.

Not far away, there was a sound of fighting. She put down what she was holding, hid in a secluded place, and looked over.

I saw about three people surrounding a masked man, but the masked man clearly had the upper hand.

"Who are you? How dare you break into my Zhang family!"

The three people who surrounded the masked man looked at each other fiercely.

They tracked him all the way, but they didn't expect that this man was so cunning. He had already escaped from Zhang's house dozens of miles away.

"laugh--"

The masked man sneered when he heard this, but his hands did not slow down at all.

'puff--'

One of them was hit and spat out a mouthful of blood. The other two looked at each other, surrounded him from both sides, took a step forward, and attacked the masked man's weak point.

"Boy, we will let you know that trespassing into the Zhang Mansion was the worst decision you ever made!"

Zhang family?

Bai Qingyao frowned slightly. Was it the Zhang family in town? The Zhang family that broke off the engagement with Sun Yunyun?

But how could a merchant family have someone with such great skills?

By the way, Sun Yunyun said that there seemed to be a big man behind the Zhang family, and there was a girl in the family who was a queen in the palace.

In this way, the Zhang family's arrogance... Zhang Qiaoer's constant talk of killing people... everything has a traceable path.

Just as he was thinking, suddenly, a sharp arrow came from not far away, and Bai Qingyao's pupils suddenly shrank.

The arrow shot straight towards the masked man.

The masked man obviously realized this and dodged the arrow by turning sideways. The other two seized the opportunity and attacked the masked man directly.

Bai Qingyao frowned. She didn't want to be affected, so she left quietly and turned around, ready to leave. Unexpectedly, a strange noise suddenly came from behind her.

Her pupils suddenly contracted, and before she could turn her head, a hard object suddenly pressed against her.

"Don't move, or I'll kill you."

"Okay, I won't move."

She lowered her eyes and turned her head rapidly, thinking of ways to escape.

Furthermore, why did this masked man suddenly leave? With his skills, it wouldn't be difficult for him to deal with those people, unless he did it on purpose...

Thinking of this, Bai Qingyao frowned even deeper. What did he mean now?

"If we stay here, we will be discovered by those people soon."

After hearing her voice, the masked man was stunned, then nodded and said, "Let's go!"

There happened to be weeds blocking their view. Even if they wanted to search, they would have to cross the weeds, which would take some time.

"I'll take you to the back mountain."

Hearing her words, the masked man's eyes flickered slightly, but he also followed her.

Bai Qingyao turned around and took the backpack out from the bushes. The masked man frowned when he saw this. "What is this?"

It stinks. Is she carrying a pile of shit?

Just thinking about it made him vomit.

Bai Qingyao rolled her eyes.

"Are you going to leave now? If you don't leave now, those people will catch up with us."

Masked Man: ...

"Are you sure you won't attract those people with these things?"

The masked man's face darkened, and Bai Qingyao's expression was even uglier.

This person suddenly ran out and took me hostage without saying a word. He still dares to do this now.

However, she could also sense that this person had no intention of killing, otherwise, she would have died a hundred or eighty times already.

"This is what I'm going to make tonight. Hurry up, they won't notice you because of the smell."

Wha...what?

rice?

The masked man staggered and his eyes fell on the messy things in Bai Qingyao's backpack with suspicion.

Although there is some pork in it, how can it be eaten if it is put together with those filthy things?

"You...what did you say? I didn't hear you clearly."
