Sanbao hurriedly responded, "Okay."

Then, he took the candy and broke into the house with a smile.

Seeing Sanbao leave, Xu Yizhi looked at Erbao, and said in a deep voice, "It's the same with you, you can't lie, and you can't help Sanbao lie."

Why didn't she realize that this little guy is quite loyal, and he can even lie when he helps out.

Er Bao rubbed his nose uncomfortably before nodding, "Understood, I won't do it in the future."

Seeing the promise from the other party, Xu Yizhi didn't say anything more, and each got busy, cleaning the house and moving things.

After cleaning the kitchen, she started cooking.

It's almost noon now, they haven't had breakfast yet, and they rely on pastries to fill their stomachs, and they are already so hungry that their chests are stuck to their backs.

She was not ambiguous, and directly baked a few egg pancakes, made a pot of meat and sweet and sour pork, and cooked a fish soup before letting a few people come to eat.

Xu Shi had been hungry for a long time, and the children devoured their food hungrily. They didn't stop their chopsticks until they had bottomed out a few dishes.

Sanbao rubbed his swollen belly, pouted and said, "Baby is so full!"

If it wasn't for those bad guys who came to make trouble this morning, she would definitely not have to go hungry. The bad guys are indeed the most annoying.

Seeing this, Xu Yizhi was afraid that she would accumulate food, so he asked Er Bao to take her to the yard to digest food, and feed the lamb and a few rabbits along the way.

She herself planned to go to the kitchen with Lu Wan'er, but Lu Rang stopped her, "Wait a minute."

Xu Yizhi stopped and looked at the other party.

The young boy's fair face was a little nervous, and his brows were deeply wrinkled together, as if he was struggling with something.

Xu Yizhi thought for a while before asking, "Do you have something to say to me?"

This was the first time that Lu Rang called her to stop so calmly, without any dissatisfaction or hatred, which only surprised her.

Lu Rang was taken aback, clenched his fists unconsciously, but didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Ever since his little aunt was taken away by those people in front of his eyes last time, he had a thought - to stand up again.

He didn't want to be powerless the next time something like this happened to him, he wanted to protect those who cared about him.

This idea has been lingering in his mind all the time, and he will finally muster up the courage to call out to the other party, but he doesn't know how to speak.

After a moment of silence, that incident suddenly appeared in his mind, and the courage he mustered disappeared in an instant.

After a while, he shook his head, "It's okay."

With that said, he turned the wheelchair out of the main room by himself.

Xu Yizhi sighed helplessly, she thought that Lu Rang would be able to speak well this time.

Just as he was thinking, a familiar voice sounded outside the door.

"Yizhi, I heard that you have moved, so I came here to see you."

Zhang Qing'e said with a smile, still holding a basket of eggs in her hand.

She went to the town this morning and didn't come back until noon. She just heard about the Lu family and came here immediately.

Seeing this, Xu Yizhi quickly welcomed the other party in, "Aunt Zhang, come in and sit down."

As he said that, he went to get candies and pastries to entertain the other party.

"Yizhi, don't be busy, I'll come to see you. I really didn't expect Mrs. Lu to be so cruel, and it's lucky that Wan'er has a sister-in-law like you." Zhang Qing'e said with righteous indignation, obviously really angry.

After staying in Baiyun Village for so long, this was the first time she saw such a cruel mother who actually wanted to sell her own daughter to be a wife. How could she not be angry.

After Xu Yizhi told the other party the whole story, Zhang Qing'e became even more angry and took a while to calm down.

The two chatted for a few more words before Xu Yizhi asked, "Aunt Zhang, do you know that there are masons in the village? I want to build a house."

She was thinking of going to Zhang Qing'e's house tomorrow to ask questions, but she didn't expect that the other party would come to her house today, which would save her from having to look again.

Zhang Qing'e ate the pastries, thought for a while, and said, "We haven't heard of any masons in Baiyun Village, but you, Uncle Chen, seem to know a few people from the next village. You can ask for help. I'll ask him to ask about it when the time comes."

Her husband is a carpenter, and he usually has contacts with these masons. He knows quite a few, but most of them are from the town.

In the nearby village, she only vaguely remembered it.

Seeing this, Xu Yizhi also breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Auntie. How is Uncle Chen's hand?"

"It's all right now, so don't worry, I'm here today mainly to see you, and I'll go back when I see that you and Wan'er are all right."

Zhang Qing'e said that she was about to leave, but suddenly remembered what Xu Yizhi said last time, and hurriedly said: "Yizhi, I have time to come to work with you tomorrow, your Uncle Chen is ready, and he has already continued to go to the carpenter's shop. It's nothing to do with my daughter-in-law at home."

Xu Yizhi quickly responded: "Okay, Auntie will come to help directly when she has time. It's still the same as what I said last time, [-] cents a day."

There are so many things going on these few days, if the other party didn't mention it, she would have almost forgotten about it.

Zhang Qing'e quickly responded, confirmed the time to come tomorrow, and was about to leave.

But Xu Yizhi stopped her, packed a lot of pastries and candies for her, and then said with a smile: "Auntie, you can bring some snacks for Gousheng to eat, the taste is not bad, Sanbao loves it, Gousheng should also would like it."

Zhang Qing'e paused, and quickly waved her hands, "How can there be such a reason, my aunt is too embarrassed to take it, you can save it for the children to eat."

She tasted a few pastries just now, and she could clearly feel that they were much more delicious than the ordinary pastries, so it must not be a cheap meal.

Originally, she would come to work tomorrow, and the wages of [-] Wen a day were already high enough, so there was no reason for her to bring food home.

Seeing this, Xu Yizhi said helplessly, "If my aunt doesn't want it, I'm too embarrassed to accept the eggs."

Zhang Qing'e quickly explained, "I know, these eggs are laid by my old hen, and they are not worth much, so you don't have to worry about them."

A basket of eggs sold in the town can only be sold for twenty yuan at most, and it will take several months to save. Every time she is too lazy to sell it in the town, she eats it herself.

This time, I was thinking that Xu Yizhi had just been separated from the Lu family, and was sent to the children to satisfy their greed.

Xu Yi felt helpless, and directly stuffed the cakes and candies into the opponent's hand, "Don't worry, Auntie, these are not expensive things. If you don't accept them, I'm embarrassed to take your things."

Seeing this, Zhang Qing'e had no choice but to accept it.

The two chatted for a while before she left.

After dinner in the evening, Xu Yizhi took Sanbao to wash and went to bed early together.

The same goes for the others, who fell asleep almost as soon as they touched the bed after a busy day.

On the contrary, Lu Rang was tossing and turning on the bed, unable to fall asleep, and the sound of Erbao's steady breathing next to his ears only made him more irritable.

There are so many thoughts in my mind, some don't know how to talk to Xu Yizhi.

It wasn't until late at night that he fell asleep in a daze.
