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

It was a sunny day, but Bai Qingyao felt a faint thunder coming from the sky, falling directly on her head.

Before she could react, Gu Zexuan pulled her towards the door.

As soon as he walked over, he saw Gu Zhengde with a smile on his face. He looked just like his son was getting married.

After seeing Bai Qingyao, Gu Zhengde quickly waved towards her, "Qingyao, over here, look, who's back!"

Gu Yichen heard Gu Zhengde's voice, looked up at him, with some surprise in his eyes.

Uncle Gu's attitude towards her...seems to have improved a lot.

He had just returned to Dayuan Village not long ago and knew very little about their current situation.

At this time, he just looked at Bai Qingyao opposite him in silence.

This woman looked a little different from the one I saw some time ago. She... seemed to have lost some weight, and the spots on her face were not as numerous as before. Her eyes were brighter, and her whole temperament was completely different from before.

At the same time, Bai Qingyao was also quietly looking at Gu Yichen, the husband who was said to have died long ago.

Looks... well, Bai Qingyao was a little stunned for a moment.

No wonder the original body liked Gu Yichen so much. Who wouldn’t like him with such an infuriating face?

Well, the long scar on his left cheek is unsightly, but it makes him look murderous and particularly tough to mess with.

I originally thought that as a widow, I could become a mother painlessly, raise the three little ones, and then I could enjoy my retirement life in advance. Unexpectedly, my dead husband suddenly came back?

This is becoming a bit...difficult.

"you……"

Bai Qingyao had just said a word when she heard Bai Dahai suddenly exclaim behind her.

"son in law!"

"You're not dead?"

After Bai Dahai finished shouting, Fang Jue felt something was wrong with what he said, so he quickly added, "That's great, as long as I'm alive!"

This...still seems a little wrong.

However, he didn't care about that now and ran to Gu Yichen.

"father in law."

Gu Yichen naturally knew Bai Dahai, Bai Qingyao's father. He had been quite nice to him before. His impression of the Bai family was pretty good, except for Bai Qingyao.

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."

There was excitement in Bai Dahai's eyes. Bai Qingjiang and Bai Qingshan also ran out. When they saw Gu Yichen, there was obvious excitement in their eyes.

"Dad, village chief, please go in first."

They're all at the door, it doesn't seem like a big deal.

As soon as Bai Qingyao finished speaking, a group of people walked into the yard.

At this time, there was an oil lamp lit in the yard. Although it looked a little dim, it was much brighter than outside.

Looking at the food on the table, Gu Zhengde and Gu Yichen, who had just entered, were stunned. Is this... just in time for dinner?

"Village Chief, and... you... the rice is almost done, we can eat it soon."

"it is good."

Gu Yichen said calmly, his eyes slightly lowered, a faint light flashing in his eyes.

A group of people sat down. Bai Qingyao glanced at Gu Yichen, then turned and went back to the kitchen, not noticing that Gu Zexuan followed her into the kitchen.

"Mother, are you unhappy that Daddy is back?"

Bai Qingyao was thinking about something when a voice suddenly came from the side. She lowered her head and saw Gu Zexuan blinking and asking her with a hint of uneasiness on his face.

"how come?"

Seeing him like this, Bai Qingyao's eyebrows jumped, and she quickly squatted down and spoke to him while looking into his eyes.

"Your father is back, how could mother not be happy?"

Forget it. At worst, I can just make three rules with Gu Yichen and live our own lives. Or, I can talk to him and take over the custody of the three little ones.

Thinking of this, Bai Qingyao's depression immediately dissipated a lot.

She raised her hand and touched Gu Zexuan's head, "Don't think too much, kid. Otherwise, you will look like an old man if you frown." As she said that, Bai Qingyao's hand fell on the center of his eyebrows and slowly smoothed his tightly furrowed brows.

"Aniang~"

Gu Zexuan blushed for a rare time, and he also heard the teasing in Bai Qingyao's words, and his face turned red.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Bai Qingyao stood up and said, "Dinner is almost ready. Xuan, you should eat more later."

"Ok!"

After all, he was still a child, and Bai Qingyao easily smoothed over the issue with a few words and changed the subject.

Remove some of the meat from the crab legs. The crab is not actually the fattest at this time, but the king crab is big enough, and perhaps it lives in the sea and eats well, so the meat on its body is also very firm.

Now it looks like there is a lot of meat.

After the steamed fish was ready, Bai Qingyao brought the dish out. As soon as she left, everyone who was talking looked up at her.

Gu Zhengde turned his head and looked at Gu Yichen on the side, and said in a deep voice, "Ah Chen, now that you are back, live a good life."

"During the years you were away... Qingyao... had a hard time raising three children."

"Uncle Gu, I understand."

Gu Yichen lowered his eyes and nodded.

"Qingyao, you had a hard time before Ah Chen was away. Now that Ah Chen is back, you should live a good life and raise the three children well."

"Village Chief, I understand."

"Look at me, seeing Ah Chen come back, I unconsciously became more talkative."

"Okay, the food is here. We caught a few fish today, so come and have a taste."

After Bai Qingyao finished speaking, everyone at the table looked at the food on the table.

At this moment, the rich aroma on the table made them feel empty in their stomachs instantly, and they even cried out.

Even Bai Dahai and the others didn't expect that Bai Qingyao would cook such a large table of dishes.

"Daughter, did you do all this?"

"Yes, my mother is amazing!"

Hearing Bai Dahai's voice, Gu Zehuai opened his mouth without waiting for Bai Qingyao to speak, "My mother's cooking is delicious! It's the best meal I've ever had!"

When Gu Yichen heard the voice, his eyes fell on Gu Zehuai. This little guy has grown up in the blink of an eye. When he left home, he was just a little over two years old. Unexpectedly, he can speak so fluently now.

Moreover, looking at the current appearance of the three little ones, they are white and plump, and you can tell at a glance that they are well taken care of by Bai Qingyao.

"Okay, Grandpa, try it now!"

Of course he had to taste the food cooked by his own daughter.

But, as he thought about it, he felt sad. His good daughter was suffering so much now. This table full of dishes looked so delicious. To achieve this, his daughter must have suffered a lot.

Thinking of this, he picked up the fish in front of him with chopsticks with a serious expression, put it in his mouth, and chewed it gently twice.

Then his eyes lit up.

This fish has no fishy smell at all! It tastes fresh and tender, but it has a few more bones, but it is extremely delicious!
