I eat wife cake on the fifteenth of every month

There was a bundle of firewood in the yard, Yue Ji watched the woman roll up her sleeves as if she was about to carry them, and stopped her with a serious face.

"What are you doing? Are you using this hand to carry firewood? Do you want to become a yellow-faced woman at a young age?"

Yuan Nai thought that something was wrong with this statement, why does it feel like this poor child is her housekeeper?

"If we don't carry it to the kitchen, we don't have firewood to cook water."

Yuan Nai pulled her aside amusedly, "My sister won't let you work, you're still so young."

"Tell the servant to do it."

Somebody Yue raised her chin and put her hands behind her back, acting as if it was a matter of course, never remembering that all her belongings were burned down in a fire, and now she is still a poor little girl being bullied by her "adoptive parents".

Yuan Nai looked at her strangely for a while, then frowned, knelt down and said earnestly, "Xixi, you must know that my sister is very poor and cannot afford servants, you must be sensible."

"I'm ignorant?" Yue Ji asked back in disbelief. She was called ignorant for the first time, which was unheard of. "Didn't you—didn't you take a wad of banknotes when you escaped?"

Suddenly there was a sound of a trumpet and suona outside the door, it should be someone having a wedding.

Yuan Nai froze for a moment, only heard "a stack of banknotes" at the back, and realized that Xixi must have seen it when she took out the money just now, making her mistakenly think that she was rich

"Xixi, we really don't have much money. We still have to eat, drink and pay the rent. We can't spend it on trivial things like hiring servants to carry firewood."

"...Wait, how much money do we have, really can't hire servants?"

"It's about 5 pounds at home, and it won't last long. Well, don't worry about the money, I will find a way."

After Yuan Nai finished speaking, she stopped caring about her, and dragged the bundle of firewood to the kitchen with great difficulty, leaving behind Yue Ji who was struck by a bolt from the blue.

5 lbs...

Is this woman a fool...

How many jewels and silks and satins she gave her back then, was she pretending to be blind?

Just take out any one and it won't weigh more than 5 pounds? !

Oh, she's not blind, she's stupid.

She had never seen such a stupid woman.

Well, I am willing to bring her this oil bottle even if I have no money. This IQ is so good that I can count money for others!

Suddenly there was a cry of pain in front, Yue Ji came back to her senses, her face was tense, and she ran in quickly.

Yuan Nai squatted on the ground, pinching the index finger of his left hand, the originally milky white finger pulp was covered with a few drops of scarlet, which looked extremely eye-catching.

Apparently, she was stabbed by the protruding spikes.

"Are you stupid?" Yue Ji grabbed her hand and put it in her mouth without thinking.

"Uh?"

Looking at Yue Ji's movements, Yuan Nai was stunned for a moment, and a very familiar feeling flashed by for a moment.

"Okay, no more bleeding."

Yue Ji interrupted her consciousness, returned her finger to him, and angrily pulled her up, "Don't touch that firewood again, I'll light the fire."

In fact, she would rather hire someone to do it, but who knows that the family is poor and white now.

Yuan Nai touched the finger that was sucked clean in surprise, and asked, "Can you make a fire?"

Yue Ji is very sincere: "No."

"Then you will?" She then asked back.

Yuan Nai was more sincere than her, "Me neither."

Yue Ji: "..."

So who gave you the courage to think you could start a fire?

"But you can learn from it, Xixi. When I was young, I saw how other people made fire."

Yue Ji looked at the woman with bent eyes, and the disbelief in her heart just turned around abruptly.

Just trust you once.

The fire was lit, and the water was boiled, which made Yue Ji a little impressed.

I didn't expect her to figure it out.

The two took a shower with hot water and went out dry.

They have to buy a lot of things.

Yuan Nai first went to the tailor shop to tear two pieces of clothes for Yue Ji, and Yue Ji was depressed for a long time when she looked at the two miniature robes full of childishness.

There are many small shops open in the streets of Haicheng, even if it is not a meal time, there is an endless stream of shouts on the road, and various aromas waft in the air.

In a fairly clean noodle shop, Yuan Nai looked at Yue Ji, who only ate two bites and refused to eat, "Xixi, why don't you eat it? Are you not used to it?"

It's possible if you think about it, after all, most of what they eat there is bread, maybe they are not used to noodles.

"How about I buy you buns?"

Yue Ji asked, "What is a bun?"

Yuan Nai pondered for a while, "It's a kind of bread with stuffing inside."

Yue Ji raised her head and asked her, "Is it delicious?"

Yuan Nai nodded, and was about to explain how delicious it was when Yue Ji said, "Then let's go."

The owner of the noodle shop was a kind middle-aged man who came to pay them the bill. The two left the noodle shop and went straight to a nearby steamed stuffed bun stand with bags of various sizes.

It was already evening outside, and the sun shrouded the bustling town, and there were more drivers on the road. Not far away, neon lights were flickering, revealing extravagance.

A cage of steamed buns is freshly baked, with meat fillings, mung bean fillings, red bean fillings, etc.

"Just meat stuffed buns." Yue Ji replied to her. She didn't have a strong appetite for food. The main reason was that this woman had eaten it before and said it was delicious. What is the taste like.

"Come on, little girl, take it!"

The steamed stuffed bun owner wrapped her in butter paper and handed it to her. Yue Ji took it and before she took a bite, Yuan Nai who was standing next to her was hit hard and fell to the ground.

A wretched Xiaoxiao passed by with something like a money bag, and disappeared in the crowd in an instant.

The bag in Yuan Nai's hand fell to the ground, and he lay on the ground in embarrassment, his face was obviously frightened, but he reacted the fastest and shouted, "Someone robbed—"

Before the sound fell, the arm on the ground hurt so much that she took a deep breath.

"Nana!"

Yue Ji threw away the steamed stuffed bun and the new clothes in her hand, and nervously stepped forward to help her up, "Are you okay? How are you hurt?"

With such a big battle, many people watching the show gathered in front of the steamed stuffed bun stall, talking about it.

Yuan Nai's face turned pale, and he shook his head at her, "Xixi, I'm fine, the money was stolen, we have to get it back."

"What do you take? You are injured, why are you doing this for such a little money?"

Yue Ji grabbed her elbow, blood was faintly oozing from her plain long sleeves, she looked at Yuan Nai with a forbearing face, suppressed her anger, "I'll help you up."

Because of her small body, it was difficult for Yue Ji to support her, but she still tried her best.

He helped her up, patted the dust off her body, tidied it up roughly, picked up all the bags on the ground with his hands and feet, and dragged her to the house, who knew that these theatergoers were still watching the theater .

"This little girl has a lot of strength despite her small size."

"It should be a mother and daughter, it's really pitiful, these old rascals are really damned!"

"They deserve it for being robbed. It's unlucky to go out and meet a robber."

These people who were cradling their chests and commenting on the parties wanted to say something, but the next moment they felt a gloomy, poppy-like gaze falling on them, and their backs suddenly felt cold.

Turning his head slowly, he saw a pair of deep eyes facing him. They were obviously so beautiful and delicate, but at this moment, they gave off a gloomy and bloodthirsty arrogance. Suddenly, there was a flash of red light from the black pupils. It flashed by, making one of the men tremble in fright.

The man rubbed his eyes, wanting to take a closer look at the little girl, but when he looked over again, he found that she had already led someone away.

"Let's go, there's nothing to see."

Most of the onlookers dispersed. Someone called the man. The man responded and touched his neck unconsciously, only to find that his hands were covered with sweat.

The man was startled and suspicious, but his friend urged him so hard that he had no choice but to wipe off his sweat, "Here we come!"
