Jin Xiaolou had always known that for mothers that didn't have milk, the best way was for babies to eat rice soup. It was just that this man-eating Jin Family wasn't even willing to give Jin Xiaolou a bowl of rice, much less give Jin Xiaolou's child a mouthful.

They wanted to use this child in exchange for money, so Jin Xiaolou had to raise the child herself.

As a result, Jin Xiaolou took the risk and looked for Wild Honey.

It was a pity that Lin'er was allergic to honey.

"Hmph, cooking breakfast is slow. Do you want me to serve you?" The Madame Zhou saw that Huang Guizhi did not make a sound, and recalled how Jin Xiaolou and her were laughing at him. The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, "It's quick to light a fire in the middle of the night, how did you manage to pretend to be a young miss?"

Huang Guizhi rarely cooked, although she had been down and out at home, but she had two older sisters, so cooking was not her business. After marrying, it had always been done by Jin Xiaolou, and he had never made a move on her. Last night, for Lin'er's sake, they were in a fluster for a long time. Then, they started a fire and cooked a pot of rice soup.

But this morning, Madame Zhou should have been the one to cook breakfast, it was just that Madame Zhou was already a mother-in-law so she was not willing to do it herself. Naturally, she would wake Huang Guizhi up before dawn and point him into the woodshed.

At the moment, it had already been less than an hour and Huang Guizhi could not even start a fire.

It was dark in the woodshed, and there were oily smudges all over the place. From time to time, they would fall and stick to his clothes, making it impossible to wash them off.

Madame Zhou was wearing new clothes that she had not been wearing for a long time. She was unwilling to enter the house, so she leaned on the door, turned her head, and saw the small pot of rice soup that Lin'er had left after feeding it to him last night.

He seemed to have caught on to something as his expression turned complacent as he turned around and walked out.

Jin Xiaolou naturally noticed the inklings.

A woman like Madame Zhou, a wife who had been married for many years and had suffered under the wrath of Madame Wu for many years, would now have to take back all the dignity and satisfaction she had lost from Huang Guizhi.

As for Lin'er, he was originally someone who had nothing to do with her. Just because she didn't have a grandson of his own, he couldn't bear to see other people giving birth to children.

An innocent child had actually become a thorn in her side.

Jin Xiaolou took out a fire piston and passed it to Huang Guizhi: "Use this. A single blow can ignite a fire, it's very good use, you won't need to waste so much effort to light a fire in the future."

Huang Guizhi was overjoyed. Raising her head, her eyes instantly lit up. "This is a fire piston! When I was young, I saw Aunt Zhang at home use it, but after coming to the Wellhead Village, I didn't see it again.

Huang Guizhi's face was covered in ashes, her little face was as black as a cat's.

Without even thinking about it, Jin Xiaolou naturally raised his hand, held onto Gui Zhi's face and gently wiped it.

Huang Guizhi had a pampered life when she was young, and she had the backing of a rich miss. Although she had already fallen and married into a married woman, her skin was much whiter and more tender than an ordinary peasant woman's.

He stretched out his hand and touched it, like a smooth and tender tofu.

After wiping away the firewood, his face that was as white as the moon was revealed.

"Alright." Jin Xiaolou wiped her dirty hands off her clothes. Her clothes were already wet, so she didn't need any ash or firewood. This was more like it! It's even more beautiful than a pomegranate flower blossoming in the ravine at the back! "

"Nonsense …" Huang Guizhi lowered her head in embarrassment and her dimples appeared on her smile.

Mmm, a glowing pomegranate flower. The people of Jin Family did not see such beautiful flowers in their eyes, they only hoped for the flowers to wither and produce those huge pomegranates.

"Gui Qi, you don't belong here." Jin Xiaolou suddenly said, "I do not belong here either, we will definitely leave!"

"Nonsense again!" Huang Guizhi reprimanded her, treating her as a little sister talking nonsense.

Seeing that Jin Xiaolou's clothes were wet, she took off her own clothes and helped Jin Xiaolou to wrap him up inside. "Girl, don't get cold, it's not good for your health.

As he finished speaking, he lowered his eyes, but his heart skipped a beat.

If only he could leave this place. It was like the clouds in the sky, flowing freely as they gathered together with the sunset.

It was just that these thoughts were fleeting. Huang Guizhi smiled bitterly, where could she go if she left this place?

Then, he raised his eyes and saw Jin Xiaolou actually holding the remaining half a pot of rice soup from last night and gulping it down.

"What are you doing!" Huang Guizhi was surprised.

Yesterday, after feeding Lin'er up to him in the middle of the night, she had forgotten about the half pot of rice soup.

Even if you're hungry, you shouldn't drink this sour rice soup.

Before Jin Xiaolou could explain, she heard the voice of the Madame Wu from the courtyard.

She grabbed a handful of firewood from the ground and scattered it into the wok. In the next moment, Madame Zhou was already standing in front of the door with Madame Wu in her arms.

With a darkened face, the Madame Wu looked around the room with her eyes. In the end, she stared straight at Huang Guizhi and said word by word, "You stole some rice and fed it to that little bastard?"
