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

"No... no need."

Jiang Dahu spoke quickly and said that he was the one who should thank Bai Qingyao.

If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to satisfy my idea of ​​learning hunting. Even though it was just digging traps, it was already very close to hunting.

"I should be the one thanking Mrs. Gu."

Bai Qingyao burst out laughing.

"Well, then, neither of us needs to say thank you."

As he was speaking, a strong fragrance suddenly emerged from the yard, and Jiang Dahu's stomach growled at the right moment.

When Bai Qingyao looked over, his face turned red.

"Da Hu, put away what you are doing and make it after dinner. It's a good time for you to go back and call Aunt Jiang and the others over so we can eat together."

"I'll finish what I'm doing first, and the stove will be ready this afternoon."

"it is good."

Bai Qingyao nodded. The meat in the pot was ready, but they couldn't just eat meat at noon. The fungus hadn't dried yet, so they could stir-fry some at noon and add some fresh and tender wild vegetables.

"Qingyao, I see you don't grow any vegetables. These are the ones I just picked from the field. Have a try."

Coincidentally, at this time, Aunt Jiang came in from outside with a basket of vegetables.

Seeing that Jiang Dahu hadn't repaired the door yet, he couldn't help but frown.

"Why is it so slow? It hasn't been repaired yet?"

Hearing Aunt Jiang's disdainful words, Jiang Dahu's face turned red and he said, "It will be soon."

"Then hurry up!"

Aunt Jiang glanced at him, ignored him, and walked into the yard.

Jiang Dahu curled his lips, he really didn't know if he was a biological child or not, as he was actually despised by his mother so much.

"Okay, I'll stir-fry some vegetables for lunch today, and we can all eat together later."

"No need, Qingyao, just eat. Dahu and I will go back."

"That won't do, Auntie. You and Dahu have helped me so much today. I have to keep you for dinner. What's more, I've already prepared it. Don't refuse!"

"I……"

Aunt Jiang wanted to speak again but was stopped by Bai Qingyao.

"Auntie, if you don't agree, I'd be embarrassed to ask you to come and help me."

Aunt Jiang had no choice but to nod.

After Bai Qingyao finished frying the vegetables, she heard some noises coming from the house. When she looked up, she saw the three little ones walking out of the house.

"Auntie."

After seeing Bai Qingyao, the three little ones immediately rushed up to her, ran to her side, and spoke softly.

"Awake?" Bai Qingyao put down the plate in her hand, her eyes gentle.

"Does your body still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

The three little ones shook their heads.

Gu Zexuan also felt it was magical. He was clearly kicked by Yang Chunhua, but now he didn't feel any pain at all.

The medicine his mother gave him was very effective.

Even the slap marks on Gu Zejing's face faded away.

"Ah Xuan, A Jing, if anyone comes to our house again, you must hide well and don't confront them. Wait for A Niang to come back and deal with it. Understand?"

The three little ones are too young and will only suffer if they fight against them.

"We understand, Mother."

Gu Zexuan nodded and said, "In the future, I will protect my brother."

"Ah Xuan, while protecting your brother, you must also protect yourself, understand?"

"Ok!"

Aunt Jiang heard their entire conversation and now her impression of Bai Qingyao has completely changed. Bai Qingyao is now sincere to her three children.

This way, Ah Chen can rest assured.

Bai Qingyao stewed the roe deer meat until it was soft and tender, and the three little ones could chew it easily. Moreover, the taste also retained its original freshness and flavor.

"Mother, this is delicious too!"

"If you like it, eat more. There's more in the pot."

As she spoke, she picked up some more vegetables for the three little ones and said, "Eat some too. Otherwise, it's easy to get irritated if you only eat meat."

"it is good."

Just when they were halfway through their meal, there was a sudden noise at the door and everyone subconsciously looked up.

Gu Zhengde was standing at the door, neither going in nor going back.

The smell in the Gu family's yard was so fragrant that he felt like he was just trying to get a free meal and felt a little embarrassed to go in.

But the fragrance kept lingering around his nose, preventing him from moving.

"Village chief? Why are you here?"

Seeing him, Bai Qingyao stood up from the dining table and hurried to the door.

"Well, I thought your front door was broken, so I came to ask if you needed any help."

Hearing this, Bai Qingyao smiled and said, "Auntie Jiang asked Dahu to come over to help, and it's almost done."

"That's fine, you guys eat, then I'll be leaving first."

After saying that, Gu Zhengde turned around and left.

Seeing this, Bai Qingyao quickly spoke again.

"Hey, village chief, you haven't had lunch yet, right? We just had lunch, so why don't you stay and have some too?"

"No need, I'll just go back and eat."

Although the taste was very fragrant, Gu Zhengde still controlled his strong inner desire and rejected Bai Qingyao.

"Stay and have some food. I have something to ask you."

She had originally planned to go see the village chief in the afternoon, but unexpectedly Gu Zhengde came to her house himself, saving her the trouble of making another trip.

Gu Zhengde was stunned. What did he want to talk to him about?

Before I could react, the person was already sitting at the dinner table.

"Grandpa, the village chief."

The three little ones saw Gu Zhengde and spoke obediently.

"Hey."

Seeing them, a smile appeared on Gu Zhengde's serious face.

"Does it still hurt?"

"Mom applied some medicine to us, and it doesn't hurt anymore."

Gu Zexuan shook his head.

"That's good."

At this time, Bai Qingyao came back with a bowl and placed it in front of Gu Zhengde.

"Village chief, I went to the mountains this morning and picked up some things. I made some soup. Please try it."

Looking at the meat in the bowl and then glancing at the yard, shock flashed in his eyes. "Is this... roe deer meat?"

"Well, I was lucky. I picked up a robe."

Gu Zhengde: ...

This is really good luck.

However, he would not believe that this was pure luck. Thinking of Yang Chunhua's appearance and then looking at Bai Qingyao's smiling face, for some reason, Gu Zhengde always felt that Bai Qingyao was not as simple as she seemed.

But she is nice to Sanxiao, so there is no problem.

After eating and drinking his fill, Gu Zhengde touched his belly. It had been a long time since he had eaten so freely. Thinking of Bai Qingyao's words, he frowned.

"What did you say? You want to buy that island?"

No one has ever lived on the island, and it is not known whether there are any wild animals. If she goes to the island, wouldn’t it be very dangerous?

Besides, she has three children.

"Yes, I want to ask the village chief, how much is the island sold for?"

Gu Zhengde frowned. "I don't know if there are any wild animals on the island. If you live there, you will inevitably encounter danger. Besides, the title deed to the island is not in the village, but in the county government office."

If you want to buy the island, you still have to go to the county government office.

"However, as far as I know, if you want to buy that island, you will have to spend thousands of taels of silver."

As soon as Gu Zhengde finished speaking, Aunt Jiang and Jiang Dahu took a breath.

"So expensive?"
