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

The lady boss's heart almost melted when she saw this, and she asked back, "Are you really her son?"

"Yes!" Lu Haojie nodded.

"Who are you to her?" The proprietress looked at Qin Qingfeng warily.

Qin Qingfeng frowned and paused his hand that was stroking his beard.

This woman is stupid.

What can an old man like him and a tiny kid like Lu Haojie do? Is it necessary to interrogate them so carefully, as if they were interrogating a criminal?

"I'm her uncle, can you take us there?"

Seeing that the lady boss was about to ask more questions, Qin Qingfeng interrupted her directly: "Whether it is true or not, go directly to Xia Yingying and tell her Lu Haojie's name, and then you will know whether we are bad guys or not."

After hearing Qin Qingfeng say this, the proprietress was convinced that the two people in front of her were good people, and she took Qin Qingfeng and Lu Haojie to the house rented by Xia Yingying.

But unfortunately, the gate of the courtyard was locked and no one was there.

"Your mother should be out doing business. Do you want to sit and wait in my store?"

Lu Haojie shook his head and sat in front of the door, occasionally peeking inside through the crack. Qin Qingfeng naturally accompanied him.

After a while, the proprietress brought them a pot of water from home and left.

After lunch, Xia Yingying and Song Ruyi went to a village on the edge of the town.

Xia Yingying was not familiar with the situation in the village, so she made fewer cakes than before. However, there were few people in the village, so they went to two villages before they sold all the cakes for the day.

But I felt more comfortable today as I did not meet Li Cuihua.

It was already evening when the two returned home.

Lu Haojie watched as it was getting darker and darker, and he became extremely anxious, fearing that he had found the wrong place.

After confirming with the proprietress several times, he walked back and forth in front of the door and waited.

As soon as Xia Yingying and Song Ruyi came back, they saw a small figure in front of their door with its back to them, peeking inside through the crack of the door from time to time.

When Lu Haojie turned around, Xia Yingying's heart tightened and she asked uncertainly, "Ajie?"

Lu Haojie trembled when he heard the voice, and then he rushed over like a little rocket, choking with tears in his eyes and said, "Mom, you are finally back."

The soft little body arched back and forth in her arms, and Xia Yingying was also stunned.

The town is still far from the village, so how did a little kid like Lu Haojie get here?

When Song Ruyi saw this scene, she couldn't help but wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Xia Yingying squatted down and touched Lu Haojie's head: "Tell me, how did you get here?"

"I came here with Grandpa Qin. He went to the bathroom. Mom, I'm going to live with you from now on. I don't want Daddy anymore and I won't go back. Okay?"

Lu Haojie had always called her stepmother before, but now that he had changed the name, she didn't feel uncomfortable and quickly accepted it.

He felt uncomfortable when he heard Lu Haojie say that he wanted to live with him.

At best, she is a stepmother, and Lu Ziren is his biological father. If Lu Ziren is an irresponsible, drunk, gambler, and social scum, it is still possible for her to bring Lu Haojie with her.

But Lu Ziren is not such a person.

The original book describes Lu Ziren as an expert in military strategy, scheming, cautious in planning everything, and vindictive.

He treats his children with great pampering.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have stirred up trouble after the death of the four minor villains and avenged them.

Xia Yingying is self-aware. In terms of blood relationship, she and Lu Haojie have no relationship at all. They are only relatives on a legal level, and now this relationship is severed.

Compared with Lu Ziren, Zhimou is just an insignificant shrimp and is not enough to compete with Lu Ziren.

She was not capable of competing with Lu Ziren for the custody of Lu Haojie.

But seeing Lu Haojie looking as pitiful as a puppy, I couldn't bring myself to ask him to go back.

Just when Xia Yingying was in trouble, Song Ruyi came forward and asked, "Ajie, are you hungry?"

"I'm hungry. I didn't eat breakfast and my daddy didn't give me any food." As he said that, he pouted his lips, carried a small bag, and moved pitifully towards Song Ruyi.

"Daddy doesn't love you, but grandma and mom do. Come on, let's go in and cook some food." Song Ruyi touched Lu Haojie's head and led Lu Haojie into the yard.

Xia Yingying originally wanted to ask him whether he had told Lu Ziren that he came to see her, but when she thought that Lu Haojie hadn't eaten all day, she decided to ask after dinner.

Xia Yingying put down the backpack and took out fresh vegetables and eggs from it, which she bought in the village.

The vegetables in the village are freshly picked and are just right for making soup.

The fresh meat that Xia Yingying bought yesterday has not been cooked yet, and there are also some tender peas, the two can be stir-fried together.

She also made tofu with egg in tomato sauce, fried yam with black fungus, and cured pork ribs with radish.

There were two more people at home today, so Xia Yingying made one more dish.

When cooking, Lu Haojie sat on a small stool and helped to light the fire and add firewood.

Xia Yingying was sweating from the heat.

Lu Haojie added a few more pieces of firewood to the stove, and ran to the table with his short legs. He poured a bowl of cold boiled water from the kettle and placed it on the stove for Xia Yingying: "Mom, drink some water to moisten your throat."

"Thank you, Ajie." Xia Yingying couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips and smile.

Xia Yingying lifted the bowl of water and drank it all in one breath.

I have to say that my dry throat felt much better after drinking the water.

A cool feeling spread throughout her body, and the heat dissipated. Xia Yingying felt a sweetness in her throat.

"You're welcome. Mom, do you want some water? I'll pour it for you." Lu Haojie raised his rosy little face and asked in a baby voice.

"No, I'm not thirsty anymore. Do you want to drink?" Xia Yingying saw that Lu Haojie's face was also red, and couldn't help but ask.

"I don't want it." Lu Haojie shook his head and refused.

After a while, the dishes were ready and the four people sat around the table.

Xia Yingying added food to everyone's plate one by one. Qin Qingfeng couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and so did Lu Haojie.

As soon as I gave the rice to Lu Haojie, he took a bite and it was so hot that he screamed. He spat the rice on the table, scratched his tongue, and said incoherently: "It's so hot, so hot."

"Slow down, are you okay? Drink some cold water to cool it down?" Xia Yingying put down her bowl and chopsticks, poured a bowl of cold boiled water for Lu Haojie and asked anxiously.

Lu Haojie took the cold water and drank it. His tongue didn't feel as hot as before. With tears in his eyes, he shook his head embarrassedly.

He didn't want to eat so quickly. He didn't eat well last night and didn't eat this morning. He was so hungry. The food his mother cooked was so delicious that he couldn't help himself and forgot that the hot food would burn his mouth.

Only little Arou would make such a low-level mistake. He was already a big brother. He felt very embarrassed that he would make such a fool of himself. His cheeks were red.

He blew on the rice and started eating slowly.

Seeing that Lu Haojie was fine, Xia Yingying felt relieved and picked up the meal to eat, but she heard a rhythmic knock on the door. Xia Yingying put down her bowl and chopsticks and went out to open the door.
