Chapter 9

She only does cooking, washing and cleaning at home. If it weren’t for the monthly allowance given by Shen Beiyuan to Li Chunling and Li Chunling’s additional subsidies, Sun Yanhong would just stay at home waiting for food. Shen’s second sister-in-law Liu Cuiying would be the first one to disagree.

It was also because Sun Yanhong was cooking at home, so as soon as Li Chunling delivered the food to her, Sun Yanhong came over to ask for it.

After hearing Xu Yi’s words, Sun Yanhong was not affected at all.

She was born with a thick skin. Even though her children were so grown up, she still didn’t go to the fields to work and earn work points. She was often discussed by villagers.

But Sun Yanhong was not afraid of being discussed, so Xu Yi’s words now were like tickling to her, not hurting at all.

“You only have two children, and your third brother sends you so much money every month. Isn’t that enough for you? And you’re still counting on the old house for food,” Sun Yanhong said with disdain. “There are so many people in the old house, so many mouths to feed, and they all give the good food to you. What do we in the old house eat?”

“I can use the household allowance Beiyuan gave me however I want, you have no right to interfere,” Xu Yi sneered coldly, “These things were given to me by my mother, you have no right to ask about it. Even if you starve to death, it has nothing to do with me. If you have the ability, you can also earn money to feed yourself. It’s a pity that you can’t do it, you’re lazy.”

“You!” Sun Yanhong was furious. “You’re the only one who’s good at talking, right? If the eldest brother doesn’t say anything bad about the second brother, how much better can you be? You’re even lazier than me, you…”

It was only then that Sun Yanhong realized that Xu Yi’s house, which used to be like a pigsty, was so clean today.

In the past, garbage and useless things were piled everywhere, and the ground was covered with dust and small stones. Now there is not even a dirty place to be seen.

At this time, Shen Muguang and Shen Qiutong heard the noise and ran over from the backyard.

Shen Qiutong raised her little face to look at Xu Yi: “Mom, what is Auntie doing here?”

Xu Yi smiled, and said in a gentle tone without being polite: “Auntie came to our house to ask for food.”

The three-year-old child didn’t know what begging for food meant, and blinked his big eyes in confusion.

But Sun Yanhong could understand. Especially when he said it in front of the child, it was like stepping on her face.

Sun Yanhong’s face twisted as she pointed at the bacon, flour, and other things. “Xu Yi, do you have to be so harsh? Do you dare to say that those things weren’t taken from my house?”

Xu Yi: “My mother-in-law sent them to me. I have money and time. Is there any need for me to steal yours? Besides, these are not yours, they belong to my mother-in-law. How can you question me?”

Having said that, Xu Yi prepared to close the door with an impatient look on his face, regardless of what Sun Yanhong wanted to say.

“Hurry up and leave. Don’t block my door.”

As the door was about to close, Sun Yanhong watched the piece of bacon leave, feeling very unwilling.

“no!”

Sun Yanhong suddenly pushed against the door: “You must return the food I had today!”

Xu Yi said impatiently: “Don’t you understand what I’m saying? I’m telling you it’s absolutely impossible!”

“If you don’t give it to me, I’ll take it back myself.”

Sun Yanhong shouted.

When Xu Yi heard this, he immediately laughed out of anger.

She simply opened the door completely and made a gesture of invitation: “Come here, dare you to take something from me and try.”

Sun Yanhong tried her best to block the door when it was closing, but now that the door was open, Sun Yanhong was a little timid and didn’t dare to go forward.

Xu Yi is really scary.

Although she was thin and weak, she was very imposing, as if she would be beaten to death if she stepped into her house.

After struggling for a while, the piece of bacon finally overcame the fear.

Sun Yanhong had just taken a step when she felt like she was flying.

Then he fell to the ground with a “bang” and couldn’t get up for a long time.

Xu Yi retracted his foot and looked coldly at Sun Yanhong who was lying on the ground screaming in pain.

In modern times, she learned martial arts and won trophies. Otherwise, she would not have lived peacefully for so many years with so much wealth.

“You…how dare you kick me?!” Sun Yanhong finally got up and rubbed her waist.

Xu Yi said coldly: “I warned you, but you didn’t listen.”

Sun Yanhong opened her mouth but didn’t dare to say anything else. Finally, she took another reluctant look at the small piece of bacon over there, glared at Xu Yi hatefully, then turned around and limped away.

When Xu Yi closed the door, she saw two children in the yard imitating her.

Shen Qiutong kicked her short legs and said in a clear childish voice: “Ha! I’ll kick you away!”

Shen Muguang fell back cooperatively: “I don’t dare anymore! I won’t dare anymore!”

Xu Yi felt a little ashamed.

After seeing what happened just now, wouldn’t the children think of her as a tigress?

Seeing her come back, Shen Qiutong ran over and hugged her thighs: “Mom, you were so awesome just now!”

Shen Muguang also looked at her with admiration in his eyes: “Mom, I want to learn from you too! I will beat all the bad guys away in the future!”

Xu Yi was amused by them: “Okay, okay, mom will teach you when she has time. Guangguang wants to be a hero in the future and catch the bad guys in the world, right?”

Shen Muguang nodded vigorously: “Yes!”

“Okay,” Xu Yi said, “Before we learn such powerful skills and become heroes, we must first grow up. And before we grow up, we must first have enough food to eat.”

“I know.” Speaking of food, Shen Qiutong became more interested. “Mom, I will eat a lot of food.”

Xu Yi nodded: “But there is one thing, after learning martial arts, you can’t bully others casually, understand?”

Shen Muguang was curious: “Mom, is this martial arts?”

“Yes,” Xu Yi thought for a moment and said, “But Mom has one request, which is that you must never tell anyone about learning martial arts.”

“Why?” Shen Qiutong didn’t understand.

“If you tell anyone, you won’t be a hero anymore,” Xu Yi began to lie, “Also, we ate lollipops and other delicious food at home, you can’t tell anyone about it either.”

Although the two children didn’t quite understand, they still agreed obediently.

“Let’s make a promise that we won’t change for a hundred years!”

One big and two small little fingers hooked together.

I forgot to give instructions today, luckily the two children didn’t say much today.

In the evening, Xu Yi still didn’t plan to light the fire. He just boiled a pot of water and used it for taking a bath later.

Then he took out three steamed buns, a stack of green vegetables, a plate of fried meat with dried tofu and celery, and a bowl of tofu and egg soup from the space, and that was about it.

At the dinner table, the two children were eating happily.

The bok choy is fried with lard, and it tastes very good without any astringency.

Most of the meat slices went into the stomachs of the two children. Xu Yi picked up two poached eggs and put one in each child’s bowl.
