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

At this moment, a small group of people gathered in the center of Dayuan Village, where the women in the village often gossip.

"You don't know, I saw Bai Qingyao coming out of Wangyueju in town with my own eyes."

"Wangyueju, that's Wangyueju. How can a poor family like us possibly afford to eat the food there?"

"But Bai Qingyao actually came out of Wangyueju..."

The woman in the center was talking vividly, spitting non-stop from her mouth.

"Really?"

After hearing her words, some people present asked questions.

"But hasn't Bai Qingyao been going to town frequently lately to sell something?"

Everyone actually knew that Bai Qingyao had been going out early and coming back late recently, all in order to pry open those oysters, saying that they could be sold.

But they didn't care. How much could those things growing on stones be sold for?

Moreover, those things are not easy to pry off. They seem to be growing on the rocks. It is impossible to pry them off. After working hard for a whole day, you can only earn a few cents. It is better to just grow crops honestly!

"Ugh!" The woman rolled her eyes in disdain. "You just believe whatever she says. Who knows what she's doing in town?"

"But doesn't she have three children? What else can she do..."

The last sentence was spoken quietly, but many people still heard it.

"Anyway, I didn't see those three little ones. Everyone knows what Bai Qingyao was like in the past. Maybe she's already sold those three little ones!"

"What--"

There was a sound of gasps all around.

He looked at the woman in disbelief.

"Why are you looking at me? I'm telling the truth! It's not like she hasn't done this before!"

"Ah... If that's the case, then the three little ones from the Gu family are..."

As they spoke, many people showed regret on their faces.

A middle-aged woman in the crowd frowned after hearing this, then left quietly and went straight home.

After returning home, he didn't stop and went straight to the main room.

As soon as I entered, I saw a man sitting on a wooden bed with his head down, wondering what he was thinking about.

When he heard the voice, he raised his head and said, "You're back?"

"You can actually still do this at home! Do you know that something big has happened?"

"what happened?"

Gu Zhengde frowned and looked up at his wife.

Xue Ningxiang looked anxious, "Bai Qingyao sold out Axuan and the others! How can you still do this?"

"Who did you listen to?"

Gu Zhengde frowned. He had seen Axuan and the others two days ago, and they looked much better than before.

Moreover, Bai Qingyao has changed a lot.

Now where did this rumor come from?

"Just now, when I passed by the lake, I heard Old Lady Ge vividly describing how she saw Bai Qingyao sell out Axuan and the others!"

"What? That makes no sense!"

When Gu Zhengde heard this, he slammed the table in front of him, stood up angrily and walked out.

Xue Ningxiang put down what she was holding and quickly followed him out.

Gu family

Bai Qingyao looked at the silver in her hand, a total of two hundred and thirty-two taels of silver, with a lot of change beside it, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

Two hundred and thirty taels of it is the price of selling the formula. If you are not in urgent need of money, cooperation is actually the best way.

But it doesn't matter. After she has the money and builds a new house, she will be able to buy a lot of things. There will be plenty of opportunities for cooperation then.

She has far more than just one or two recipes in her head.

"Mother, so much money——"

Gu Zehuai looked at the silver in front of him, his eyes shining.

Two hundred taels of silver notes, and the rest is silver.

"Yes, now that our family has money, we can build a new house and no one can break in."

Now the wall of their small, shabby thatched house collapses easily with a push and has long been broken. If there is no new house, she will be worried every time she goes out.

It’s not because of the money, she can keep these things in the space, but she is worried about the three little ones. She doesn’t dare to leave them alone in a house like this.

"Build a big house?"

"Yes, build a big house, so that Ah Huai and his brothers will never go hungry again."

"I'm not hungry anymore, okay—"

Gu Zehuai shouted excitedly, but Gu Zexuan walked forward with a frown.

"Auntie."

"Ah Xuan, what's wrong?"

Gu Zexuan is the oldest of the three and also the most thoughtful, so Bai Qingyao pays more attention to his emotions.

"Mother, when we make some money, let's pay back grandma first."

Although the original body was not good to them in the past, she was still their mother in name only.

She often went back to her parents' home to get things, and once she brought back a lot of money. He saw it and scolded her.

At that time, he remembered that although the money was taken by his original body, he had already married into the Gu family, so from the perspective of outsiders, the money also belonged to the Gu family.

Bai Qingyao: It’s so awkward.

If Gu Zexuan hadn't spoken up, she wouldn't have remembered this at all.

Thinking of this, Bai Qingyao sighed. Her original self was really selfish.

In her memory, her original family also doted on her. Even though their family situation was not good, they still cared about Bai Qingyao.

But the last time the original body went back, she took the money her mother had saved for a long time to marry her brother, and she acted as if it was her right.

Bai Qingyao: ...

It’s really hard to comment on this original body.

She is so selfish, she only has herself in her eyes and heart, without any family affection.

"Okay, Mom will remember it."

No matter what, she still has to pay back the debt owed by her original body.

I have to find a chance to go back, otherwise the misunderstanding will get deeper and deeper.

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a noise in the yard.

"Bai Qingyao, come out!"

"You vicious woman, why can't you tolerate three children!"

"Bai Qingyao, come out..."

Bai Qingyao frowned and picked up the silver and money on the bed.

Gu Zejing, who had heard the sound, ran out and bumped into Gu Zhengde who was rushing over.

"Ajing? Why are you at home?"

Gu Zejing was a little confused when he heard Gu Zhengde's words. "Uncle Village Chief, where am I if I'm not at home?"

"What about your eldest brother?"

"They are in the house with my mother."

They were counting money just now, and he ran out when he heard the noise.

"Uncle village chief, are you looking for my mother?" Gu Zejing looked at Gu Zhengde and then turned his head.

"Mother, the village chief is looking for you."

"A Jing——"

Before Gu Zhengde could speak, Gu Zejing's voice had already spread. Gu Zhengde couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. When he looked up, he saw Bai Qingyao walking out of the house.

"Village chief? You're looking for me?"

She was just about to go to the village chief's house, but unexpectedly Gu Zhengde arrived at her house before her, and...

Bai Qingyao frowned when she saw a lot of people gathered in front of her house. What happened?

Following her out were Gu Zexuan and Gu Zehuai. Gu Zhengde couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

What is going on? Aren’t Axuan and Ajing home well?

"Ahem, they're all at home..."
