Chapter 176 Pulling the mule cart out
Before going out, Shen Su'e thought that since she was going to pretend to go back to Baihe Village to get food, she might have to stay outside for a while and not come back too soon.

A little worried about Tugen, she gently pushed the little boy on the bed, "Tugen, Lingbao and I are going out. You continue to sleep. If you wake up and don't see us, go find your uncle and uncle." Grandma wants to eat, you know?”

Tugen was drowsily asleep. When he heard grandma's words, he didn't open his eyes and responded vaguely, "I know, you guys come back early."

"Okay." Shen Su'e twisted the corner of the quilt for Tu Gen.

After that, she walked to the backyard with flour in one hand and a large basket of eggplants in the other. Because the eggplants were too full, several of them fell on the road. Lingbao picked them up and put them back into the bamboo basket. .

After making sure nothing was left behind, Shen Su'e covered a large basket of eggplants and white noodles with linen cloth, then carried Lingbao onto the cart and pulled the mule to get ready to go out.

As soon as the mule cart left the yard, Zhao Cuilan's voice came from behind, "Is it Su'e? Where are you taking Lingbao this early in the morning?"

"There's nothing to eat. I'll go back to Baihe Village to get something to eat..."

When asking questions before, Zhao Cuilan only heard the sound of wheels and saw no one. Now after hearing her sister-in-law's words, she quickly walked to the backyard and saw Su'e pulling the mule cart ready to leave. She hurriedly asked: "Are there any pumpkins available?" Do you want to eat?”

Shen Su'e pulled the mule cart out of the backyard and before closing the door, she said to her sister-in-law: "Those pumpkins are easy to spoil, so I have to go back to order some white flour. There is no food around me. I feel uneasy and always worry that Lingbao will not be full."

At this point, she seemed to have thought of something, and immediately said: "By the way, sister-in-law, if you like to eat pumpkin, steam some more today..."

I'm going home. I don't know when I'll be back. Maybe I won't be back until the afternoon. Please remember to help me take care of Tu Gen and don't let him go hungry. "

Hearing that Su'e agreed to eat pumpkin, Zhao Cuilan's face was filled with smiles. She waved and said happily: "Okay, don't worry."

Seeing that the backyard door was closed, Zhao Cuilan happily walked to her sister-in-law's room and carried one of the pumpkins to the kitchen. "Oh, this pumpkin is really heavy. This piece must weigh more than ten kilograms, right?"

She cut the pumpkin in half, scooped the middle pulp and seeds into a basin, and cut the rest into a dozen portions and steamed them in a pot.

When her two daughters-in-law arrived in the kitchen, she had already put the lid on the pot and started to light the fire. "Have you two slept until now? I'm too lazy to call you, so you just procrastinated until now before you came out to cook. ?”

"Mom, I didn't sleep well yesterday because of Dexi, so I got up a little late." Wang Chunmiao didn't get enough sleep, so she yawned as she explained.

"Me too," Liao Guifen complained, "I was already asleep, but Deshun woke me up..."

She squinted her eyes and yawned, with tears in her eyes, "I don't sleep well, I sleep lightly, and I keep having nightmares in the middle of the night... Didn't Lingbao say I was lacking in calcium or something? Oops, yesterday I don’t know what time I fell asleep at night, it was so frustrating.”

"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this?" Wang Chunmiao frowned and asked, "It seems that you are blaming my family for being successful."

Liao Guifen immediately replied: "Who is to blame? Did I mean that? I just wanted to explain to my mother why I got up so late..."

"I heard you were blaming Deshun. Deshun found out that Dexi was not in the house at night, so he came to me to discuss with his father. What's the problem? He didn't mean to wake you up. You Why are you so stingy as an aunt?"

"Am I stingy?" Liao Guifen asked angrily, and then asked her mother-in-law, "Mom, please give us a good review. Is it because she was unreasonable to make trouble today? She is really funny. I said it smoothly, didn't I?" "

Zhao Cuilan glanced at the eldest daughter-in-law, then at the second daughter-in-law, "Second daughter-in-law, you really ignored this matter. What did they say when they recruited Ping Niang? Did you take gunpowder early in the morning? So aggressive." Wang Chunmiao clenched her fists, "I understand, Dexi is no longer the blessing of our family, mother, you must be partial to your sister-in-law now."

"What do you mean by favoring your sister-in-law?"

Zhao Cuilan put down the iron tongs in her hand and said angrily: "It's a shame that I went to your aunt's house to get the pumpkin. I was thinking that you and Dexi didn't eat it yesterday, so I cut a few pieces for you, so you just give it to me. Are you showing off?"

Liao Guifen's eyes widened in surprise, "What? Mom, you secretly went to my aunt's house to get the pumpkin? If your eldest aunt knew about it, wouldn't she be mad to death?"

"Why are you so angry? She asked me to go to her house to get some steamed pumpkin to eat."

Afterwards, Zhao Cuilan talked about their eldest aunt taking Lingbao home to get food, "Don't look at her usually having a bad temper, but she is actually very soft-hearted and quite generous..."

Liao Guifen nodded, "My eldest aunt is indeed a nice person."

After a "pop", Wang Chunmiao muttered, "She probably knows that the pumpkin will go bad if left uneaten for a long time, right? She might as well take it out as a favor."

Zhao Cuilan said displeased: "What are you talking about? If you don't like to eat, don't eat it, and stop saying sour and sarcastic words, it makes me uncomfortable!"

Her eldest daughter-in-law echoed: "Well, what kind of favor does my eldest aunt do? Her Lingbao is a little lucky star. Does she need to do favors? I did a favor for you, what can you repay her?"

"What little lucky star? Don't be some kind of monster..."

As soon as Wang Chunmiao said this, her mother-in-law frowned and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? I know you feel uncomfortable because Lingbao said that the birthmark on Dexi's forehead does not mean wealth. , but you can eat randomly, and you can't talk nonsense. People's spiritual treasures just tell the truth, you..."

"It has nothing to do with the birthmark. I'm suspicious of Dexi!" Wang Chunmiao interrupted her mother-in-law. "I chatted with Dexi for a while yesterday and felt that she was weird. If you don't believe it, I'll tell you later. See for yourselves.”

Zhao Cuilan and Liao Guifen were stunned almost at the same time.

"What?" After a long while, Zhao Cuilan came back to her senses, "What did you just say? Are you overjoyed?"

"I feel like I'm possessed by evil spirits. Didn't Dexi not eat all day yesterday? I said I would steam a sweet potato for her to eat so that she wouldn't be too hungry to sleep. But she said she was full and not hungry at all. It was strange. Bar?"

Liao Guifen listened to her younger siblings and wondered, "Even if Dexi said it was a bit strange for her to say she wasn't hungry, what does this have to do with Lingbao?"

"Have you forgotten? Yesterday, Dexi went out with Lingbao, but when she came back, she acted strangely. She said a lot of good things about Lingbao, as if she was a different person. Dexi's father and I were both suspicious. Is Dexi possessed by a ghost?"

"What? Why is he possessed by a ghost? Don't be so evil..."

Wang Chunmiao said with determination: "Anyway, Dexi will get up later. You can see for yourselves. Lingbao must have secretly done something to her."
