179 Splitting the Money

Aunt Wang stopped refusing.

She turned back to look at Liu Shi and said, “you’re so…”

Lin Xiaoyue was amused by this scene.

“Aunt Wang, don’t treat us as an outsider in the future. You’re the closest to my mother in this village. You and uncle are the elders I respect the most. Although we are not related by blood, we are closer than relatives.”

Seeing that Liu Shi was also smiling at her, Aunt Wang was touched.

“Yes…”

“I’ll help you start the fire!” She then said.

Then, she walked towards the kitchen.

The Liu family treated her family sincerely, so she could only do more to repay them.

Then, Lin Xiaoyue brought Liu Shi and Aunt Wang to the kitchen and started to get busy.

The three of them chatted and soon, lunch was ready.

When Aunt Wang saw that the Liu family’s dining table not only had a lot of meat and vegetables, but also had polished rice, she was really amazed and envious.

The Liu family’s life is really good now.

“Mom, go and get Li Xiao and the two children. I’ll bring the food to Erya.” After packing the food for Wang Erya, Lin Xiaoyue took off her apron and said to Liu Shi.

“There’s no need for you to make a trip, I’ll do it!” Aunt Wang quickly said.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled and did not stop her.

“I’ll go with you.”

However, Aunt Wang was already walking towards the door.

“No, you rest for a while. I’ll be back after I deliver the food. You don’t have to wait for me.” After saying that, Aunt Wang hurriedly walked out.

Liu Shi smiled and looked back at her daughter.

“Aunt Wang doesn’t like to trouble others.”

Lin Xiaoyue smiled and nodded.

“This is why others like her and treat her well.”

“Yes,” Liu Shi agreed.

Then, she asked Lin Xiaoyue to call Li Xiao and the others back, and she went to set the table.

When she arrived, she saw the two children with Li Xiao.

At this time, Li Xiao was no longer digging more ponds. Instead, he was adjusting the wooden boards covering the ponds.

“Let’s eat first!” Lin Xiaoyue said.

Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue. “I’ll come after I’m done.”

He continued to work on the things at hand and told the two children to go back first.

Lin Xiaozhi immediately ran to his sister happily.

“Time to eat!” He was shouting happily.

Xiao Qing was worried that Lin Xiaozhi would fall, so he quickly chased after him and told him to slow down.

Lin Xiaoyue looked at them and smiled.

Back in the kitchen, Lin Xiaoyue went to help Liu Shi set the table.

Then, she and Liu Shi brought the two children to the big tree in the courtyard to wait for Li Xiao.

Lin Xiaoyue looked at the big tree, saying that maybe she could make a swing.

When Lin Xiaozhi heard that, he immediately pestered his sister.

“I’ll ask Li Xiao to do it in the afternoon. I’ll pay you two first.” Lin Xiaoyue said.

She then walked to the small table and took out two strings of copper coins.

“I said that I’ll pay you 1 wen for every bowl sold. There are 6 bowls of cold cakes left, so that’s a total of 150 bowls.”

“How much can each of you get?” Lin Xiaoyue smiled and looked at Xiao Qing. At the same time, he was given a math problem.

Xiao Qing thought for a moment.

“75 wen,” he answered.

Liu Shi, who was at the side, was shocked.

“So much?”

She didn’t want to stop her daughter from giving the two children money, since they also helped her to sell cold cakes in the field.
