A ragged cub at the beginning

"What's going on? Can anyone tell me?" Tang Xu asked while calling Tang Qing, asking him to get the helpers on the carriage and go back to find Banxia.

"She cut it herself with a knife. Wang Zhuzi couldn't find his daughter, so he said he would sell his wife to pay off his debts. Zhao Xinhua was so cruel that she cut her face directly and even smiled, saying she couldn't sell it." Someone nearby frowned as they spoke, not knowing whether it was because of Zhao Xinhua's cruelty or Wang Zhuzi's beastly behavior.

Zhao Xinhua looked so scary that Tang Xu didn't dare to take her home, fearing that she would scare the elderly and children at home. She took her back to the Tang family, because no one in the Tang family was afraid of her anyway. "Xiao Qing, go and call Banxia."

Knowing that the matter was urgent, Tang Qing did not complain and quickly brought Banxia.

"Oh my god! How did this happen? Wash her and stop the bleeding first!" Banxia was seldom seen such a situation and was shocked. Her hand holding the needle was shaking a little. The wound was too long, so she used a silver needle to pierce the acupoint to stop the bleeding.

"Sorry to trouble you again, Miss Tang." Zhao Xinhua even had the mind to smile.

"My husband's last name is Du. You can also call me the principal. You can help out in the kindergarten in the future." Tang Xu's nose was full of the smell of blood and he couldn't stand it.

Zhao Xinhua was stunned for a moment, then slowly turned her head, "Really?"

"Yes, it won't be easy then. It's dinner for two people, so don't be lazy." Tang Xu joked to comfort her.

Another person was picked up, blood was sticky and smelled bad. Tang Ling turned around and went back to his room.

"You should stay here and take care of your wound first." Tang Xu sighed, looking at her face with a line on each side, like a parenthesis, "You are so cruel to yourself. How could you have the heart to do that to yourself? Why didn't you come to me? I was only one day late."

Zhao Xinhua smiled nonchalantly, "How can I rely on others for everything? I am shameless enough to entrust Ah Xue to you."

Tang Xu said angrily: "Why are you so cruel to yourself? Why don't you just chop that man with a knife?"

Zhao Xinhua looked at her and said seriously, "Director, Axue can have an ugly mother, but she can't have a mother who killed her father."

These words stunned Tang Xu. She was speechless for a long time. She wanted to refute and scold her for not taking care of herself.

But she is just a mother. Even if she tries her best, she only has one wish, that her child can grow up well.

Banxia looked at Zhao Xinhua, who had no mother. She was an orphan picked up by her master and raised by her senior brother. She didn't know what other people's mothers looked like, but Wang Xue's words deeply touched her heart. So, this was her mother. Even if she was injured and bleeding, she didn't want her daughter to suffer from rumors.

Zhao Xinhua temporarily lived in Tang Xu's room, but she didn't sleep on the bed at night. She cleaned the floor, spread the mattress on the floor and slept.

When Tang Xu brought Wang Xue here, she was burning with fever all over.

"Mom! Mom! What's wrong with your face? Mom..." Wang Xue rushed over and cried.

Banxia was called over again. She put on a stern face and lectured him, "How can you sleep on the floor when you have lost so much blood and are still so weak? You will suffer more if you have a fever! Why are you so disobedient!"

Zhao Xinhua was delirious with fever and only knew that she had gotten into trouble again. She kept apologizing in a hoarse voice.

"Forget it, Wang Xue, you stay here and take care of your mother. I'll ask the sister next door to bring us meals. Don't make trouble anymore." Tang Xu gave instructions and left.

The plan to sell lunch to the public was temporarily shelved, and Tang Xu asked Tang Qing to make another trip to talk to Wang Xiaoyu about delivering the food.

Tang Qing snorted, "You really treat me as an errand boy!"

It was June, and the dog days soon arrived. The children had less time for outdoor activities. When the Great Heat arrived, the kindergarten officially closed for the holidays. Selling meals to the neighbors was put on the agenda, and everyone was free. Originally, there were only about 80 people, but the number increased again when the children were on holiday.

The wound on Zhao Xinhua's face has healed, but the knife was too blunt and the wound was long, leaving two ugly scars. But she didn't seem to care much, and she always wore a face towel to cover it for fear of scaring the children.

Wang Xiaoyu brought her son to deliver vegetables in a cart early in the morning. With the income, her life became better. She no longer had to worry about buying food and daily necessities for her children. Her mother-in-law was about to get angry again, after all, Tang Xu had not been to the village for a long time. She thought that she was busy and might have forgotten Wang Xiaoyu. But not only did she not forget, she also introduced business to her.

Some people in the village who were ready to make some moves put their thoughts aside.

It was too hot this summer. Tang Xu lay on the couch and felt like he was going to melt. The ice basin next to him was better than nothing.

July Jiarui didn't want to move anymore because he felt hot.

Worried about the child getting heat stroke, Tang Xu prepared a cooling smoothie. Watermelon was available, but it was not very tasty, with a strong fiber content and not sweet enough. To make a smoothie, you need to add honey, which is even more extravagant. Fortunately, after eating some cool food, I felt better.

Although he was in better spirits, his appetite was still poor. He didn't like to eat and felt hot. Even Jiarui didn't like to eat anymore, and he ate less of the snacks he used to like.

Tang Xu ate a bowl of mung bean smoothie and thought: This won’t work, I have to prepare some summer food.

She went into the kitchen, where the cook was packing up. When she saw her, she bowed and asked, "Madam, what would you like to eat?"

"Can you make cold noodles?" Tang Xu asked.

"Cold noodles? Noodles will clump together when they're cold. Can they still be eaten?" The kitchen was confused.

"It doesn't come with soup. So, you knead the dough for me and I'll use it later." Tang Xu asked her to knead the dough, and he mixed a small bowl of batter to make cold skin.

Unable to find a stainless steel plate, the cook gave her a round silver plate to cook the cold noodles.

The two of them spent almost half an hour in the kitchen, making a bowl of cold noodles and a bowl of cold skin. Tang Xu made spicy and non-spicy dishes. "Butler Qi, can you help me find my sister so you can come and try this too?"

"Okay, I'll go right away." Butler Qi looked at the colorful bowl and went to invite Tang Ling in person.

Tang Ling and Tang Qing also had poor appetites and neither of them knew how to cook, so Tang Yao ate most of the food he bought by himself.

Hearing that Tang Xu had prepared food, Tang Ling stood up immediately.

After taking a mouthful of the spicy and fragrant cold noodles, Tang Ling's eyes lit up.

"Delicious! Not too hot!" Jiarui took a bite of the cold noodles. He ate the non-spicy one, which was filled with crispy cucumber and kelp shreds, as well as fried peanuts.

There was also a small bowl of sugar-pickled tomatoes on the table. They were all cold, and eating them seemed to cool you down.

"Well, I have to eat this every day." July said.

"How can I eat cold food every day? It's not good for my health..." Banxia was eating cold noodles and couldn't bring herself to eat hot food. "Then I'll have some porridge in the morning."
