127 Same Bed

After rolling a few times, the three little ones would rub their little heads on Su Xiaoxiao’s body. Their actions were very light and wouldn’t disturb her writing.

Su Xiaoxiao wanted to laugh. She inexplicably felt like a charging station that was sustaining them.

By the time Su Xiaoxiao finished practicing the last word an hour later, Su Ergou had long fallen asleep. The three little ones had also exhausted their energy and fallen asleep.

Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her sore wrist and looked at the thick stack of her hard work on the table. She felt a sense of achievement.

She quietly got out of bed, put away the table, and tucked the three little ones into the blanket.

After that, she returned to the east room.

She thought that Wei Ting had already rested at this hour. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the house, she saw Wei Ting sitting in the room wiping his dagger.

Su Xiaoxiao drooled.

Ah, she really coveted this dagger!

She seriously suspected that this guy did it on purpose!

The goal was to lure her to hand over the token in exchange!

It was a pity that she could not retrieve the token at all. She could only stare enviously.

Su Xiaoxiao swallowed her saliva and walked over unhurriedly. “Why aren’t you sleeping in the middle of the night? Why are you sharpening your knife in the room? Are you trying to kill me?”

Wei Ting said calmly, “Do you know that it is late? Yet you are sewing clothes in the middle of the night?”

Su Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. “I… like to sew for so long!”

Wei Ting: “Heh.”

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “Anyway, I wasn’t practicing calligraphy!”

Wei Ting was speechless.

After turning off the lights, the two of them lay on the soft bed. Although they had slept together for many days, the two of them did not cross the line.

Su Xiaoxiao blinked and asked, “Wei Ting, why did you say that it took so long for me to sew clothes just now? Do you think I’ve been gone for too long and you can’t sleep if I leave you alone in the room?”

Wei Ting said calmly, “No.”

Su Xiaoxiao: “Oh.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Then why did you wait for me to come before sleeping?”

Wei Ting said, “Who’s waiting for you? Don’t flatter yourself.”

“Hmph.” Su Xiaoxiao snorted weakly and turned around with her back facing him.

After thinking for a moment, she turned around and stared at his perfect side profile.

With a handsome man beside her, it was good to take a look!

Not long after, Su Xiaoxiao’s eyelids started to flutter. She couldn’t open them again.

In the dead of night, Wei Ting’s heart calmed down bit by bit as he heard the even breathing beside him.

The hatred and distracting thoughts in his mind gradually faded. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Su Xiaoxiao had to do business and woke up early. Unexpectedly, Madam Wu and Liu Ping were even earlier.

Su Xiaoxiao opened the door for the two of them. “Have you waited long?”

“No, I just arrived,” Madam Wu said.

The two of them entered the house.

Su Xiaoxiao said to Liu Ping, “Brother Liu, you don’t have to come so early.”

Liu Ping was mainly in charge of carpentry and transportation. He could come after the snacks were finished.

Liu Ping smiled honestly. “I came over to see if I could help. I can chop firewood, carry water, and start a fire!”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Ergou can do these jobs.”

Liu Ping said, “Let Ergou sleep a little longer!”

There was a reason why Su Xiaoxiao changed the shift between the two of them. Not only was there a difference in the division of labor, but she was also concerned about the sisters.

“The two children are still young. As it is, it’s not like there were so many adults watching before the separation.”

Their current residence was by the fish pond. It was very quiet and there were no neighbors. If a bandit really came, the two children would be in danger.

Liu Ping felt that it shouldn’t be. The village was quite safe. Moreover, he had locked the door when he came out. No one could enter.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Brother Liu, you should go back. Come back at dawn.”

Madam Wu said, “Listen to Daya.”

“Aye… sure!”

Liu Ping scratched his head and went back.

As it turned out, it was fortunate that he complied. As soon as he reached the house, he realized that the lock had been broken. The copper lock used in the countryside was not very complicated. It could be opened with a twist.

Liu Ping’s eyebrows twitched as he hurriedly entered the house.

“Meizi!”

“Woo… ”

From inside the house came Mei Zi’s suppressed cry.

Liu Ping kicked open the sisters’ door. Mei Zi was pressed onto the bed and had her mouth covered. Liu Ping rushed over without a word, grabbed that person’s collar, and threw him to the ground!

“Meizi, are you alright?”

He rushed over to support his trembling daughter.

Mei Zi cried in fear. “Dad! There’s a thief!”

Halfway through her sleep, Meizi sensed that someone had entered the house. She called out for her father, but the person did not answer. She sensed that something was wrong and wanted to shout for help, but just as she called out twice, the person covered her mouth tightly.

The man panicked and covered her mouth and nose. If Liu Ping had arrived a little later, Mei Zi would have suffocated to death.

The man got up and tried to flee but could Liu Ping let him succeed? He ran up and kicked that person to the ground!

Liu Ping taught the other party a lesson. He knew this person. It was Zhang Xiaoshi from the village. He looked honest, but who would have thought that he would do such a thing?

Liu Ping beat him up until he heaved more air than he breathed. He only stopped when the village head rushed over.

He was extremely glad that he had been chased back by his eldest daughter. Otherwise, something would have really happened to Big Meizi.

Little Meizi did not wake up. What if she had woken up when Big Meizi was being attacked? Was she going to be smothered by Zhang Xiaoshi? Liu Ping felt a lingering fear and kicked Zhang Xiaoshi again!

This matter was indeed too evil. The village head did not cover up and reported it to the officials after dawn.

Zhang Xiaoshi was taken away by the officials.

After this incident, Liu Ping and Little Wu’s working hours were staggered. Madam Wu came to work first. After dawn, she went back to see the children and Liu Ping came to work.

If the children woke up early, they would come with Liu Ping.

In the morning, Madam Wu and the children would be at the Su family’s house. She had to prepare the salted duck eggs and do some processing work until noon.

Liu Ping was more flexible and was on call. He might have to shop at night or do some woodwork in the afternoon.

… .

Su Xiaoxiao still set up a stall in the alley near Jin Ji, but it was not the shabby stall from before.

She had her own stall and a banner sign written by Wei Ting—Su Ji.

The publicity at the birthday banquet brought great popularity to Su Ji. Now, they did not have to ride on the popularity of Jin Ji at all. Instead, Jin Ji became the “high-end substitute” for Su Ji because it sold the same type of wife cake and chestnut cake.

The so-called high-end substitute was a term to describe spending money to buy from Jin Ji to satisfy one’s cravings because one could not eat Su Ji.

Without Su Xiaoxiao’s egg yolk, Jin Ji could not make the egg yolk pastry at unless they imported it from the capital. However, in that case, the cost would not be able to be maintained.

Moreover, because of Old Madam Qi’s disdain, Jin Ji lost several high-end clients! They wanted to accept orders from high-end families, but they could not!

In stark contrast to Jin Ji, Su Ji was rapidly on the rise.

How popular were Su Ji’s snacks?

As long as Su Ji opened the stall, there was no one at the entrance of Jin Ji!

No one expected that after 30 years of popularity, the entity that defeated Jin Ji was actually a roadside stall from the countryside!

What could be good to eat at the roadside stalls?

Sorry, Old Madam Qi was eating that! So was Dean Shen!

Was there a person who was so noble that he wouldn’t eat it? It turned out there wasn’t.

“Aiyaya! Brother in front, show mercy! I’ve been waiting for a long time! Leave two for me!”

“You’ve only been queuing for half a day! I’ve been queuing for three days and I haven’t bought anything once!”

“Miss, make more next time. It’s not enough!”

“That’s right! If there’s business, you have to do it! Who are you saving money for!”

Manager He sat in the room upstairs. Each time he heard these words, he would vomit blood!
