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

Chapter 5

"These are the wild eggs that Chen'er picked up. You should eat some to fill your stomach first." Ye Xi looked around and asked, "Does our family have food?"

Ni Ge said nothing, took the bowl, took out a wild egg, knocked it on the edge of the bowl, peeled off the egg shell, and handed the egg to Ni Chen.

"Chen'er, are you hungry? Come and eat some eggs."

Ni Chen took the peeled eggs and handed them to Ye Xi: "Mother, eat the eggs."

Ye Xi shook his head: "Chen'er, you eat. When mother boiled the eggs, she already ate one."

Ni Chen didn't seem to believe Ye Xi's words. He leaned over to the bowl and looked at it for a while, seemingly counting the eggs.After a while, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It turns out that mother has already eaten one, so I'm not welcome."

"Yeah, let's eat." Ye Xi nodded. Now that she was poisoned, she had no interest in eating.

Ni Ge peeled another wild egg and threw it into his mouth.His movements were elegant and dignified, and he didn't look like a mountain villager at all.

Only then did Ye Xi have time to look at the second male character in his painting. He saw sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, delicate facial features, and fair skin without any flaws. At first glance, he looked like a banished immortal who had fallen into the mortal world.

Ye Xi boasted that he had seen many beautiful men, but he was still dazzled by Ni Ge's appearance at this moment.

With this handsome and flawless appearance, he is definitely the male protagonist in her novel!

Ye Xi couldn't help but have a little expectation for the appearance of the male protagonist Ding Xiucai.

Ni Ge and Ni Chen shared six wild eggs, then looked up at Ye Xi, pointed to the cabinet in the house and said, "When we separated, our parents gave us thirty kilograms of brown rice and thirty kilograms of wheat flour. Thirty kilograms of corn flour are all packed in the cabinet."

"With these ninety kilograms of grain, our family will live frugally and we will have no problem living for three or four months. After three months, I should be able to go out and set up a stall on crutches, and there will be no problem writing letters home to people."

"Before that, I don't ask you to do well, as long as you can prepare two meals a day for us, father and son, in a good manner."

He raised his hand, and a bunch of keys appeared in his palm: "I will keep the keys. The cabinet will be locked after taking out the food for our family every day."

"I'm not at ease with a woman like you who cheats and cheats!"

After Ni Ge finished speaking, he stared at Ye Xi with a pair of sharp eyes.

In the past, if Ni Ge targeted the original owner like this, the original owner would have cursed him loudly.

Today, Ye Xi not only showed no displeasure, but also answered him with a smile: "Okay! No problem. Now, take out today's food."

Ni Ge nodded and threw the key to Ye Xi: "Just make three bowls of wheat flour today!"

Ye Xi took the key and opened the cabinet.

There were three coarse cloth pockets inside, each of them bulging.It seems that although the Ni family kicked out the three of them, they did not treat them badly.

"The first one on the left is wheat flour." Ye Xi was about to check the three bags, and Ni Ge reminded him: "The bag in the middle is brown rice, and the bag on the right is corn flour."

"Yeah. Got it." Ye Xi opened his left pocket and took a wooden bowl for measuring rice from the cabinet.Ye Xi looked at the size of the wooden bowl and estimated that a bowl of grain was about half a catty.

Ni Ge already picked up a wooden basin from nowhere and stayed by her side.

"Chen'er is so good." Ye Xi sincerely praised Ni Chen, beat three bowls of wheat flour, tied up his pockets, locked the cabinet, and returned the key to Ni Ge.

Ye Xi held the wooden basin and glanced around the room, seeing an oily clay pot next to the cabinet.

Ni Ge followed her gaze, coughed and explained, "That's the three kilograms of vegetable oil my mother gave us when we separated."

Ye Xi looked at the oil can with bright eyes: "Um, can I use a little vegetable oil?"

Ni Ge's words of rejection came to his lips. When he saw his son's wet and expectant eyes, he turned around and said, "Yes! Bring a bowl and pour some."

Seeing that Ni Ge agreed, Ye Xi finally let go of his worries.With oil, the baked cake will be much more delicious.

Ni Chen also cheered: "Wow, are you going to make something delicious?"

Ye Xi thought about the foods that could be made from wheat flour: "Let's make leek cakes, okay?"

"Leeks?" Ni Chen's eyes lit up: "Mother, I know where there are leeks."

Ye Xi smiled and took Ni Chen's hand: "Let's go dig leeks first, and then come back and pour the vegetable oil."

"Okay!" Ni Chen was so happy that he could walk with his hands and feet: his mother held his hand again, dug leeks with him, and made leek cakes for him to eat. He was so happy!

Ni Ge frowned as he watched the mother and son leave. For some reason, he felt that the Ye Xi in front of him was completely different from the poisonous woman in his memory.

Could it be that she was also reborn?This thought flashed through Ni Ge's mind, making him unable to calm down for a long time.

"Ye Xi, you'd better be sincerely good to Chen'er! If you dare to hurt Chen'er again in this life, I won't mind breaking your neck."

Ni Ge clenched his hands, with anger surging in his eyes.

Ye Xi walked to the kitchen and staggered.She has been sensitive since she was a child, and she can feel the malice no matter how deeply hidden it is.

At this moment, she felt the murderous intention from the future powerful minister.

Ye Xi looked confused: She didn't do anything to anger the powerful officials just now, right?Why did he suddenly want to kill her?

Ye Xi finally realized the moodiness of powerful ministers. It seemed that her future journey would be like walking on thin ice, and she would have to be careful every step she took.

She didn't want to be killed by the powerful minister before she could collect enough money to buy Qianxiang's antidote.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Ni Chen looked at her worriedly, holding her hand with an anxious look on his face.

"Chen'er, mother is fine, she just sprained her foot just now." Ye Xi looked at Ni Chen's little face, which was a little dirty, but very cute.She put down the wooden basin and couldn't help but pick up Ni Chen and kissed his little face a few times.

"Mother." Ni Chen murmured, his face flushed.

"Son." Ye Xi replied with a smile.

Ni Chen looked at Ye Xi shyly and called out again: "Mother."

Ye Xi smiled and responded to him: "Good son."

The mother and son laughed together, and the powerful minister, who was sitting alone on the bed, fell into deep contemplation when he heard the laughter.

In the kitchen, Ni Chen quickly put his mouth on Ye Xi's right cheek, gave it a kiss, then lowered his head and laughed so hard that his shoulders twitched.

Ye Xi just looked at him quietly, feeling that the child's whole body was filled with happiness and satisfaction.

It turns out that children’s happiness comes so easily?Ye Xi felt even more guilty about Ni Chen: How could she think of such a good child, so that he would not have the love of his own mother and grow up with his parents hating each other?
"Chen'er, let's go. Let's dig wild vegetables." Ye Xi shouted and picked up the missing machete.

Ni Chen ran away happily, carrying a small backpack on his back and ran to Ye Xi. Mother and son walked towards the mountain behind the house.

At a glance, half of the mountain is withered and yellow, and the other half is green. It's autumn.

Ye Xi estimated the season and thought no wonder the Ni family gave Ni Ge ninety kilograms of grain. This was their food for one winter.

The reason why Ni Ge kept the key close to his body was probably because he was afraid that the original owner would give all the food to Ding Xiucai.

"Ye'er, Ye'er." A frivolous voice suddenly sounded, making Ye Xi feel a chill in his heart: Couldn't this voice be calling her?
