I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 266: Concealing the truth

Hearing Li’s tone, Bai Yunxi nodded appreciatively.

“Your second sister-in-law is right. It’s useless for you to argue with them. They don’t have to admit it and accuse you of bullying. What can you do to them?”

"As for the scoundrels, the more you confront them, the more you get what they want. They are worried that they won't have a chance to come over. Besides, people are walking in the woods opposite and haven't come to our house. How can you argue with them?"

Xiao Wu took the handkerchief and wiped his hands while looking outside.

“We’re not going out today anyway, so don’t worry about it.”

Bai Anyi looked at Xiaowu, then looked outside, and retorted unconvinced, "If we don't go out today, what about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? Can't we just keep it at home?"

"If we can't finish grinding the kudzu in the backyard today, we will have to waste another half day tomorrow. As long as we are not idle, they can keep an eye on them as much as they like. Tomorrow afternoon, we will go into the mountain through the back door to chop firewood with my second brother, and strive to Prepare enough firewood for the winter in two days."

Xiao Wu said, a cold look flashed in his eyes,

“My mother and sister-in-law wander around the yard from time to time. They are willing to waste time. Can we stop them?”

 Even a three-year-old child understands how important it is to prepare firewood before winter.

Bai Yunxi looked at Xiao Wu, thought for a moment, and couldn't help but curl his lips. This kid wanted to confuse the other person.

"Xiaowu wants to hide the truth from them?"

“Yes, if they really think they can take advantage by keeping an eye on our movements, then they are stupid.”

Xiao Wu had a cold face and a look of disdain. Those people took the initiative to provoke them, so don't blame him for being naughty.

Everyone looked at Xiao Wu's indifferent eyes and looked at each other. Sure enough, you shouldn't offend anyone who is a scholar. The bad ones are bad.

 After lunch, the family went to the backyard again and continued filtering kudzu powder. During this period, I took advantage of the moment when I drank water and went to the hut to take a walk in the front yard, and then continued working in the backyard.

By the time the sun went down, there was still a small portion of kudzu left to finish. As Xiao Wu had estimated, he would still be busy all morning tomorrow.

Baiyunxi looked at the two grates of kudzu powder that had been dried out, and there were still two tanks of kudzu water on the ground that needed to settle.

“Okay, it’s been a tiring day today. Let’s take a shower after dinner and go to rest. Tomorrow morning, we’ll dig out the starch from the tank and dry it. The rest of the kudzu will be done in the morning.”

Baiyunxi rubbed his waist and looked at the results of a day's work. He estimated that there were more than 20 kilograms of kudzu powder.

 After a tiring day, everyone was exhausted. After dinner, they went to rest.

The next day, they continued their work, crushing and filtering the remaining kudzu root, and taking out the precipitated kudzu root powder to dry.

 After processing the kudzu, we started to cut firewood as planned and store firewood for the winter.

Just as Xiao Wu guessed, there were people pretending to be passing by their house all the time. When they saw someone in the yard, they kept leaving.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Baiyunxi sat under the eaves and used her own underwear to change Yaya into a small nightgown. It was soft and comfortable to wear when sleeping.

 After bowing for a long time, he got up and walked around the yard.

 Baiyun Xi looked through the fence and looked at the forest on the other side of the road. The fallen leaves in the poplar trees had long been swept away, and they were so bare that they could be seen as far as the eye could see.

In such a forest, not to mention Tibetan people, even a mouse passing by can clearly see whether it has lost its hair.
