The wife of a powerful minister?Don't worry, I'll take back my destiny first

Chapter 10 New Water Tank

Ye Xi thought: Maybe the Ni family saw that their water tank was too old and sent them a new water tank?
Following the kid who came to deliver the water tank, it was normal for him to playfully take away a nice-looking little stone.

Thinking of this, Ye Xi smiled.She felt that the truth was what she thought now.

She stood up and looked into the water tank again, but was so frightened that she shouted: "Oh, my mother! It's so ugly."

Ye Xi's face reflected in the water was so ugly: the woman she looked at reflected in the water had withered yellow hair, sallow skin, and was so thin that her cheekbones protruded. Because she was too thin, her deep-set eyes looked particularly big.

This appearance is simply too different from her original appearance.

No wonder Ding Zhongwen couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes when he saw her. It turned out that he looked so ugly!
It was a miracle that the original owner was not divorced by Ni Ge.

Damn it, the original owner’s ghostly appearance won’t affect Ni Chen’s appearance, right?Ye Xi thought worriedly, after all, the male protagonist Ding Zhongwen had learned from the past, and Ye Xi was really afraid that Ni Chen wouldn't look that good after washing his face.

Forget it, we'll talk about this later. Let's have a full meal first. She was already so hungry that her chest was touching her back.

Ye Xi walked towards the house with a bowl and a knife. When Ni Chen saw her holding two bowls and a kitchen knife, he knew that she was really preparing to kill him, a sick man.

For the sake of his son, he just killed the chicken.

As long as the chicken soup she stewed was no longer given to Ding Zhongwen, he could stop worrying about the past with her.

Ye Xi handed the kitchen knife to Ni Ge and walked to the cabinet. There was a small wooden shelf with some bottles and cans on it.

Ye Xi opened the lid and looked over. There were salt, pepper, sugar, and a can of soy sauce. Although it was simple, the basic seasonings were quite complete.

Ye Xi suddenly remembered that she could see what else she could exchange for wild eggs in the mall.If the seasonings were not expensive, she would like to change them to sesame oil, chicken essence, chili pepper, thirteen spices and the like.

Ye Xi felt happy, reached out and grabbed a handful of salt and threw it into the bowl, then handed the bowl with salt to Ni Ge.

Ni Ge had already grabbed the two chicken wings and the head of the pheasant with one hand, and plucked a bunch of feathers from the chicken's neck with the other hand. He picked up a kitchen knife and cut the area where the chicken feathers were gone, and then lifted the pheasant's head. His legs were shaking, and chicken blood flowed into the bowl from the edge of the knife.

Ni Chen stood far away, watching the scene of division of labor and cooperation between his father and mother, and had the illusion that the two of them were a loving couple.

How wonderful it would be if father and mother really loved each other!Ni Chen sighed secretly, hiding the regret and sadness in his heart.

Ye Xi asked casually, "When Chen'er and I went out to dig leeks just now, did anyone come to the house?"

Ni Ge looked at her puzzled and said, "No. But there is something missing in the kitchen?"

Ye Xi was surprised and quickly shook his head: "No, there is nothing missing."

Ni Ge's expression suddenly became serious, and his eyes staring at Ye Xi became much sharper. He asked suspiciously: "Is there really nothing missing?"

Ni Chen turned around and ran out. Neither Ye Xi nor Ni Ge spoke. They only heard Ni Chen's "ta-da-da" footsteps.

Ni Chen ran back quickly and said to Ni Ge in surprise: "Dad, is it true that no one has been to our house? I saw that all the water tanks in our house have been replaced with new ones and they are still filled with water."

"The water tank has been replaced with a new one? No way?" Ni Ge didn't quite understand what Ni Chen said, but his eyes fell on Ye Xi: "If someone has really been here, there is no way I wouldn't know about it."

Ni Chen looked at the bleeding pheasant and said, "Dad, are you asleep? Didn't you hear anyone coming to the house?" Ni Ge shook his head and said with certainty: "I was always awake and didn't sleep. Chen'er , tell daddy, how big is the water tank?"

Ni Chen gestured up and down: "Dad, the new water tank is as tall as me and as big as me."

Ni Ge nodded: "It's impossible for such a big water tank to arrive at home without any movement. And to fill it with water, you have to carry at least two loads of water."

As Ni Ge spoke, his eyes fell on Ye Xi.

"The strangest thing is that the load of water I brought back was left intact at the door of the kitchen." Ye Xi could only pretend to be stupid and said: "I just saw that the broken water tank turned into a brand new water tank. I thought it was Big Brother and the others who came to the house and gave us new things.”

Ni Ge was also very strange and said doubtfully: "Absolutely no one will come to our house during the time you are out. I can be sure of this."

There was a look of horror on Ni Chen's face: "Father, mother, they all say that the house we live in now is a haunted house. Could it be that the new water tank was given by a kid?"

"You don't want to talk about the strange power!" Ni Ge looked at Ni Chen reproachfully: "Where do ghosts and gods come from in this world? It's just the world that deceives itself."

Ni Chen pursed his lips unhappily and muttered in a low voice: "No one came to the house, and the broken water tank turned into a good water tank. Did the good water tank grow back on its own?"

Ye Xi looked up at the sky: Don't tell me, it's really possible that the water tank grew on its own.

It was only now that Ye Xi figured out that if it was really Ni Ge's eldest brother and the others who came to the house, it would be impossible for them to leave the good luck stone in the new water tank after changing the water tank.

A broken water tank can only be left in front of the house.Just now she looked around the house specifically and did not see the abandoned broken water tank.

Ni Ge fell into deep thought. After Ye Xi poured half a bowl of vegetable oil, he carried the killed pheasant and walked towards the kitchen.

Ni Chen wanted to help, but Ye Xi called out to him: "Chen'er, wait until I come back to get the chicken blood and kitchen knife. You are too young, so you are not allowed to use the kitchen knife, do you understand?"

Ni Ge came back to his senses and gave Ni Chen a look. Ni Chen then stood obediently in front of the bed and told Ni Ge carefully what he had seen.

"Dad, the water tank in our house is so new and clean. I like it when I look at it."

Ni Ge looked at his unconscious feet and took a deep breath: If he couldn't move now, would he really want to see what was going on with that water tank?

Ye Xi hung the pheasant on the wall of the kitchen, put the vegetable oil away, and carefully looked at the good luck stone in the water tank again.

She actually wanted to know if she put the good luck stone into her food bag, would there be endless food?

How about giving it a try tomorrow when you get the food?Yes, give it a try, you won’t lose anything anyway.Ye Xi secretly made up his mind.

She let out a long breath, then walked back into the house, picked up the chicken blood and kitchen knife, and returned to the kitchen.

Ni Chen followed her and ran to the kitchen, looking at the water vat with gleaming eyes, feeling extremely excited.

He felt that since such incredible things as rebirth had happened, it wouldn't be a big deal if the water tank could grow on its own.
