Oh my god, I became the vicious stepmother of four villains

"Brother, is our stepmother possessed by a ghost?" Lu Haojie asked curiously while cleaning up the dishes.

It's not a ghost. It's a soul change, Xia Yingying muttered to herself.

Lu Haoran shook his head. He was puzzled by Xia Yingying's transformation. Thinking of her saying that they would divorce after his father came back, was she really going to reform? But even if she reformed, she would not change so thoroughly all of a sudden.

Lu Yuwei's eyes darkened and she paused as she wiped the table.

"If the stepmother is possessed by a ghost, I also like the current stepmother who is possessed by a ghost."

Lu Haojie also nodded in agreement. This stepmother not only didn't beat him, but also gave them meat to eat. The previous stepmother not only didn't give them meat to eat, but also made them watch her eat, which was simply abominable.

"We can get close to her, but don't trust her too much. What if she's up to something bad and wants to sell us out?" Lu Haoran was still on guard. Although he didn't know what Xia Yingying's purpose was, he still told his younger brothers and sisters not to trust her too much.

Lu Yuwei and Lu Haojie nodded.

When Xia Yingying heard the conversation inside, she couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand. Is her image so bad in the children's minds?

She deliberately stamped her feet outside and coughed. The three children became stiff and silent.

Xia Yingying walked in slowly. The children didn't dare to make a sound. If Xia Yingying hadn't just heard their discussion with her own ears, they would have suspected that they were dreaming.

"I'm going to the market tomorrow. Who of you wants to go with me?"

The three children looked at each other and shook their heads. Lu Haojie wanted to go, but seeing that his brothers and sisters were not going, he wanted to eat the noodles with soybean paste from Qiao Noodle House.

"Xiao Wei, why don't you come with me? I'll give you the money from selling ginseng. Then I'll show you your face." Seeing that no one wanted to go with her, Xia Yingying invited Lu Yuwei.

First, she wanted to sell the ginseng. Lu Yuwei knew how much it was sold for. Second, she wanted to take Lu Yuwei to the clinic to see if the scar on her face could be healed. Third, she could improve her favorability in front of Lu Yuwei and get more system access rights. After she divorced Lu Ziren, she would not have the opportunity to improve her favorability. She had to seize the opportunity.

Lu Yuwei looked at Lu Haoran and asked what to do. Lu Haoran shook his head slightly.

When Xia Yingying saw Lu Yuwei's hesitation, she knew that it was because the original owner had a criminal record and the children were worried about her.

He raised his finger and swore a poisonous oath: "Don't worry, I won't sell anyone out. If I sell any of you out, I will let you die from poison."

Lu Yuwei hesitated and looked at her toes timidly: "No, I won't go, stepmother, just take the money from selling ginseng. It's not easy for stepmother to raise the four of us when dad is not around."

Xia Yingying felt a little disappointed after being rejected, but she also felt that she was very sensible and well-behaved, and had nothing to do with the perverted villain that later appeared.

"Okay, I'll save the money for you and pay your tuition when you go to school."

Hearing that Xia Yingying was going to send Lu Yuwei to school, Lu Haojie's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Stepmother, stepmother, did you just say you were going to send my sister to school?"

Xia Yingying nodded, saying that only by reading can one understand reason and know right from wrong.

How can you understand medical books and become a poison doctor without going to school?

Besides, they are at school age now, what else can they do if they don’t go to school?

"Then can my eldest brother go with me?" His second sister had ginseng as a tuition, but he and his eldest brother didn't. However, he also wanted to go to school, and his father had planned to send him to school next year.

Xia Yingying nodded again and promised solemnly: "Well, from now on, all three of you will go to school."

"Really? Really?" Lu Haojie asked excitedly, grabbing Xia Yingying's hand.

Seeing how much Lu Haojie was looking forward to going to school, Xia Yingying felt so soft-hearted: "Yes, it's true."

Just as she was about to touch Lu Haojie's head, Lu Haojie ran away like a cannonball, let go of Xia Yingying's hand, and shrank his head like a turtle in fear.

Lu Haoran was washing the dishes while Lu Yuwei was rinsing them. They were both indifferent to what Xia Yingying was talking about at school.

They knew that even if the ginseng could be sold for a lot of money, it would not be enough to support three people to study. One month's tuition was enough for an ordinary family to spend for a year or two. It would be a huge expense for three people to go to school together. Xia Yingying was lucky to hunt the wild boar today. Such good luck would not come all the time. The family had no other income and no money, so going to school was just a castle in the air.

Seeing that no one wanted to go, Xia Yingying did not force them. The kitchen had already been cleaned by them. She knew that she was not welcomed by the children, so she took a walk in the yard for a while.

Thinking about going to the market tomorrow, he returned to his room.

When Lu Haojie came in to bring foot washing water, he saw Xia Yingying sitting there counting money.

"Stepmother, the foot washing water is here." Lu Haojie reminded in a low voice for fear of disturbing Xia Yingying.

"Just leave it there. I'll wash it myself later." Xia Yingying counted.

Lu Haojie put down the foot washing water and did not leave. Instead, he stood by and waited to help Xia Yingying pour the foot washing water.

Xia Yingying had been keeping her head down, and her shoulders were so sore that she couldn't stand it anymore, so she stretched and rubbed her shoulders. Seeing that Lu Haojie was still there, she asked, "Can you count money?"

Lu Haojie nodded in surprise: "Yes."

"Come here and help me string the coins." Xia Yingying moved to another position, patted her hands, and motioned for him to sit over there.

Lu Haojie walked to the bed, shrank his neck, and shook his head: "Stepmother, I'll just stand."

Xia Yingying pointed at the dark shadow in front of Lu Haojie: "But you will block my light if you stand there."

Only then did Lu Haojie sit down obediently, staring at Xia Yingying stringing money without blinking.

Xia Yingying quickly passed the money through the rope and asked, "One string for every twenty cities, do you want to try it?"

Lu Haojie nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. Xia Yingying placed the basket of copper coins between them, taught Lu Haojie once, and handed him the rope. Lu Haojie then strung the copper coins in a very professional manner. As soon as he put down the copper coins, Xia Yingying picked up the string and counted them. There was nothing wrong with them, so she gave Lu Haojie a thumbs up and encouraged him, "Ajie, you are great."

Lu Haojie's tense body finally relaxed, a blush appeared on the tips of his ears, and he lowered his head and stringed the copper coins with a grunt. This time, he did it more seriously.

With Lu Haojie's help, the copper coins were counted quickly. Xia Yingying counted them and found that she did not earn 2,680 coins from buying meat this time.

After stringing the money, Xia Yingying washed her feet and poured the water for herself.

"Stepmother, I'll go back first." Lu Haojie said proactively, seeing that he had nothing to do with it.

Xia Yingying then looked at Lu Haojie: "Well, go to bed early, good night."

The stepmother is so gentle. Lu Haojie's heart beat faster and a blush crept up his skinny cheeks.

"Yeah. Good night, stepmother too." After saying that, he walked back with his short legs.

Xia Yingying has never been immune to cute and obedient children. She smiled and suddenly remembered something in her mind, so she called out to Lu Haojie who was at the door.

"You wait first."
