Five cubs at the beginning: the vicious stepmother turns over and becomes a group favorite

Chapter 70 Yao Niang
"It's okay, just a little itchy eyes."

Mu Daiyao rubbed her eyes, and Ji Zhixu heard her pretending to be innocent.

He thought for a while, and guessed: "It's what Xiao Kai and Xiao Yun said just now that made you sad."

While tidying up the dishes, Mu Daiyao said aggrievedly: "Don't blame the children, you are often not at home, and I don't like the five of them by myself. It's good to have sister Tong to take care of them together."

"I rejected Miss Ruan in the morning, as you can see."

Ji Zhixu thought that his wife had misunderstood his relationship with Miss Ruan, so he quickly explained.

However, Mu Daiyao didn't need this man to show his loyalty. She rolled her eyes in her heart, and then said: "I know, but Xiaokai and Xiaoyun obviously like sister Tong more. Every time I don't like them, they disappeared without a trace, like at night..."

Having said that, Mu Daiyao deliberately paused, and then said cautiously: "It's fine if Xiaokai is a boy, but it's not the same thing for a girl like Xiaoyun to go to other people's house all the time. I think it might be arranged by my husband." They have less homework, so they always have nothing to do at night."

"Sir, what do you think?"

Ji Zhixu really thought about it seriously. In fact, he didn't interfere too much with the children's education. On the one hand, the man's mind is not so meticulous, and on the other hand, he has been hunting outside all year round to earn money. There is no time to support a family.

So when Mu Daiyao raised this question, Ji Zhixu looked at her for help with some distress, with an expression of letting her make the decision.

It's rare to see this kind of expression on this man's face. Mu Daiyao is still a little unaccustomed to it, as if she was a little bit coaxing a child. After a moment of hesitation, she finally said confidently: "I want Xiaokai and Xiaoyun Learn to do housework, what do you think, my husband?"

"Just the two of them?"

"Xiao Ping is the eldest son of the family after all, and he needs to take care of many things. Xiao Jing and Tong Tong are still young, so they can help if they can. If they can't, I, the mother, will do it together."

Mu Daiyao looked at Shangji Zhixu's eyes that looked extremely deep even with doubts, coughed lightly, looked away, and said pretending to be virtuous: "If Xianggong finds it difficult, then forget it."

"Xiao Kai and Xiao Yun often give you trouble, don't they?"

Ji Zhixu did not directly refuse, but turned to ask seriously, he wanted to get an answer from his wife.

Originally, Mu Daiyao wanted to confuse the past, just like in the past, but when the words came to her lips, she looked at Ji Zhixu's deep eyes, she pursed her lips, and finally said lightly with lowered eyes: "Sir, it's not easy being a stepmother. I don't want to speak ill of the children behind their backs."

"I see."

Ji Zhixu didn't say anything, just shook off his wet hands after washing the dishes, nodded and said: "I often don't take care of the family, the children depend on you, Yaoniang, let them do whatever they want, I don't interfere."

This is the first time that Ji Zhixu has called her this way. The word "Yao Niang" in his mouth is as gentle as playing a fine musical instrument, which makes people's ears move slightly.

Mu Daiyao actually turned her face away a little unaccustomed, she had never had such an intimate address with Ji Zhixu before, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

"By the way, Yaoniang, I'm going to hunt in the back mountain again in a few days. Is there anything you want me to bring back for you?"

Once a stranger and second acquaintance, after Ji Zhixu called "Yao Niang" a few times, his face already had a calm expression.

On the contrary, it was Mu Daiyao who was uncomfortable listening to her, she secretly moved back a few steps, and distanced the relationship between herself and Ji Zhixu, only then did she feel that the oppressive feeling was slightly reduced.

"No," Mu Daiyao shook her head, and refused decisively, "Sir, you don't need to worry about it."

"Do you still need inulae? Or other herbs?"

Seeing that Mu Daiyao was about to step out of the kitchen, Ji Zhixu raised his mouth slowly.

Sure enough, Mu Daiyao hesitated.

She asked tentatively, "Is it difficult?"

Shouldn't she need to pay anything to get it?

"It's difficult for others, but not difficult for you."

Ji Zhixu is still very confident about this point, he looked at Mu Daiyao's expression of longing and hesitation, and added another sentence: "Besides, it's a matter of course for my wife to bring something, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Mu Daiyao would not refuse, she just nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, Mr. Xiang, you are the best!"

This is much more reliable than the system that needs to complete tasks to get rewards!

Unexpectedly, after solving the difficult problem in one night, she could get the herbal medicine Ji Zhixu picked for herself a few days later. Before that, Mu Daiyao didn't even dare to dream that it would be so smooth.

Mu Daiyao, who came out of the kitchen humming a ditty, now sees everything very pleasing to the eye, even if she saw Ji Xiuping standing there outside the room, she would happily go forward and rub his head.

"What are you doing here?"

On the contrary, it was Ji Xiuping who was taken aback by her move, knocked off her hand with a look of disgust, and said angrily: "Would you like to kiss each other, as my stepmother, can you speak and act?" Pay attention to your behavior?"

Hearing this, Mu Daiyao was taken aback for a moment, and then felt that Ji Xiuping who said this seemed a little cute, she was not annoyed, and asked directly: "Okay, then ask my good son, you What are you doing to find your stepmother?"

"Thick-skinned."

After Ji Xiuping muttered, he reluctantly took out a purse from his bosom.

The purse looked like it had been used for a long time, and there were already signs of yellowing, and the flowers embroidered on it had long since lost their original bright colors.

But it can be seen that the owner cherishes it very much, and the damaged parts are mended with less-skilled needles and threads.

Mu Daiyao's eyes fell on the purse for a while, and her eyes were a little complicated. If she remembered correctly, the deceased wife of the Ji family should have embroidered it for Ji Xiuping herself.

"Look at what!"

As if feeling Mu Daiyao's eyes, Ji Xiu covered his purse so that she wouldn't continue to look at it, and quickly poured out some pieces of money inside his palm, hesitating for a while before making up his mind to reach out to Mu Daiyao Yao.

"Give you."

Mu Daiyao wasn't surprised either, but she didn't expect Ji Xiuping to change his mind so quickly.

"That's not all. Daddy still has some money that I won't give you to an outsider. It's reserved for the Ji family."

Since these words can be said, Ji Xiuping is not afraid of Mu Daiyao's anger, he looks directly into Mu Daiyao's eyes and tells the truth.
