After escaping from famine, the evil stepmother was pampered by the villain Zaizai Tuan

Hongdoubao lay on Xiao Miaomiao's back, tremblingly sticking his head out, his eyes timid.

Looks very pitiful.

Jiang Xiaohua sighed, "Are you hiding outside the door and eavesdropping again?"

Although he said this, his tone was not reproachful.

Jiang Xiaohua stretched out her hand towards Xiao Miaomiao, "Come here."

Xiao Miaomiao came closer, raised her hand and patted the red bean bun.

Hong Bean Bao got off his little master and squatted on the ground, looking at Jiang Xiaohua eagerly as well.

Xiao Miaomiao said, "Mother, I didn't mean to eavesdrop."

"Brother said that all that was left was to clean the stove and sweep the floor, so he asked me to come back first."

Jiang Xiaohua said pleasantly, "Well, didn't you meet those two people not long ago?"

"Didn't the red bean buns and oolongs make people run away after beating them?"

"It's no secret that they are in the capital."

"Now that everyone lives in the capital, we are likely to meet sooner or later."

"We are not afraid of slanting shadows when we are upright, so why should we be afraid of them?"

Every time Jiang Xiaohua said something, Xiao Miaomiao nodded.

At the end, Xiao Miaomiao patted her heart and said, "Mother is right, it should be like this."

She turned to look at Hong Bean Bao and said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, Hong Bean Bao."

"It's the bad guys who did the wrong thing, not us!"

Hongdoubao raised his head and squeaked, his eyes flashing.

Oolong has been hiding away and sleeping since he finished eating.

It may have overheard the conversation between a few people, but it suddenly stood up and walked slowly over.

Oolong walked back and forth beside Hong Doubao twice, his big fluffy tail brushing against Oolong intentionally or unintentionally.

Xiao Miaomiao clapped her hands and smiled, "Look at Hongdou Bao! Even Oolong said he would protect you!"

Hong Beanbao was obviously happy. He danced and jumped towards Oolong and made squeaking sounds from his mouth.

It's like talking.

Wulong stared at it for a while, seemingly impatient, and then raised his head and howled.

Then he turned his head to the side arrogantly.

Jiang Xiaohua smiled and said, "You two, one is lively and outgoing, the other is introverted and proud."

"What an interesting pair of friends."

Late at night, Jiang Yuanheng sat up from the bed, "Oh no!"

Jiang Mo slept on the smoke cage outside the screen.

Hearing the noise, he came over rubbing his eyes and asked, "Master, are you thirsty?"

Jiang Yuanheng suddenly looked at Jiang Mo, his eyes as wide as bells.

Jiang Mo was so frightened that he woke up completely, "Young master, you want to vomit? Hold it for a while! I'll get the basin right now!"

Jiang Yuanheng frowned and said, "I don't want to vomit."

"I just suddenly remembered that I forgot to tell Madam Jiang what gift my mother was going to give her!"

Jiang Mo breathed a sigh of relief, "Young Master forgot to mention it this time, so we'll talk about it next time we meet."

"It's just a set of clothes anyway."

Jiang Yuanheng said seriously, "But what if Madam Jiang is like me?"

“What should I do if I have a midnight dream and remember that I didn’t ask clearly about something, so I can’t sleep?”

Jiang Mo has followed Jiang Yuanheng since he was a child, and has long been accustomed to his surprises and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

So she yawned and comforted, "No, Madam Jiang is not such a picky person."

Jiang Yuanheng glared, "You mean I am nitpicking?"

"No, no." Jiang Mo apologized hastily.

"Didn't the young master also say that Madam Jiang is a person who does great things?"

"She is busy doing big things all day long, how can she have time to stay up at night because of this?"

Jiang Yuanheng grinned and nodded, "That's right."

"It's a gift that I can't give away anyway, so just leave it alone."

Jiang Mo quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

For two consecutive days, the four little beans ran out after lunch every day.

The reason was that we had made an appointment to go to a classmate's house and do homework together.

Li Yuanzhi was busy decorating the shop, and Jiang Xiaohua was busy making contacts to purchase raw materials and prepare for the opening of the workshop.

The two were too busy to pay close attention to what the children were doing.

Fortunately, I checked their homework at night and found that they were doing well.

Over at the school, Old Master Ouyang did not receive any bad feedback.

Chai Fei, small study room.

Four little cubs gathered around the long desk, staring intently at a length of bamboo.

Bamboo already has the prototype of a pen.

Liu Ming was sharpening the tip of his pen little by little against the light.

Liu Guang said, "This is the last bit of material,"

"If we can't do it again, we'll have to wait until next time."

Liu Ming immediately rolled his eyes, "Can you shut up and stop disturbing me?"

Liu Yong also patted Liu Guang to signal him to be quiet.

Liu Ming calmed down and continued working.

He is under a lot of pressure, okay!

This is already the third day, and they have already scrapped four pens.

He had all the bamboo he had bought.

If it fails, the New Year gift prepared for my mother will be declared bankrupt.

Liu Guang sat down again, picked up the brush and dipped it in ink, "Anyway, it won't be my turn until later."

"Instead of watching in fear, it's better to do your homework first."

The three boys took turns cutting, shaping and drilling.

The grinding work had the lowest risk factor, so it was left to Xiao Miaomiao.

While one person works, the other three do their homework.

This way there won't be any delay.

They are busy at their original pace.

Chen Sheng suddenly strode in. He looked at the paper in his hand and said:

"Four little friends, please wait!"

Liu Ming stopped the carving knife and looked at Chen Sheng with the other three people.

Chen Sheng's usually gentle and calm face turned red, and his eyes showed unprecedented fanaticism.

"I may have found the right way to make pen nibs!"

He walked quickly to the long desk and put down a drawing.

This is the result of his studying day and night behind closed doors for the past two days.

Chen Sheng pointed to the drawings and explained to the children:

"Look, this way, this way of opening, piercing."

"Before cooking, slightly heat the outer skin of the bamboo, so it won't crack."

The four little ones of the Liu family have been thinking and discussing for the past three days, and have come up with dozens of plans.

So when Chen Sheng proposed a new method, they understood it immediately.

Liu Yong's eyes were filled with ecstasy, "That's great! It should be no problem to make the pen tip like this!"

Liu Guang said thankfully, "Fortunately, we moved slowly and didn't have time to make a move."

Chen Sheng smiled and said, "This time, can I do it with you?"

"Of course you can!" the four little ones welcomed in unison.

Jiang Xiaohua went to the Chengxi Workshop again in the afternoon.

She just negotiated a batch of medicinal materials for skin care products yesterday, and they will be delivered this afternoon according to the agreed time.

Wu Gang is looking through the color palette from last year in the color palette room.

Seeing Jiang Xiaohua come in, he hurriedly put down what he was holding and said, "My boss is here."

Jiang Xiaohua hummed and said, "I met Master Zhou when I first came in."

"He said that all the original craftsmen in our workshop have decided to stay, and no one is missing."

Wu Gang smiled and said, "Yes, they are all old people. It will be difficult to find work elsewhere for a while."

"Besides, the conditions offered by the owner are so favorable."
