Chapter 297: Chapter 298 There’s Someone in the House

As soon as the twins saw Dabai and Piqiu, they completely forgot about their favorite Sister Guibao and started playing with Dabai.

Helian Qiao didn’t mind and boldly declared, "Auntie, I’ll catch you some meat to eat!"

The Little Princess, who had lived in the human world for four years, knew that when guests came over, one should serve them some tasty food.

And meat was the tastiest!

Chen Honghong didn’t take her seriously and merely laughed, nodding, "Okay."

Even though she knew her niece often went out to catch wild rabbits and chickens, she wasn’t aware that when she mentioned catching, she meant right away.

The next second, Helian Qiao wriggled out of her lap, and shouted to Ma Xiulian, "Nanny! We’re going out to catch some meat!"

Then holding Gu Tingyun’s hand, they hurried off, disappearing before Chen Honghong had time to react.

Ma Xiulian couldn’t stop them, she just cautioned them, "Be back in time for lunch, ask Tingyun to come back as well."

Then, she turned towards the packages Chen Honghong brought, "Why did you buy so much?"

Inside was a big bag of milk candies and several cans of malted milk, which must have cost a good deal.

Even though her daughter was earning her own wages, it still felt a tad uncomfortable for her parents-in-law.

Chen Honghong smiled and reassured her, "Mom, don’t worry, it didn’t cost much. As employees of the department store, we get a nice discount on these items during the New Year!"

Thanks to the inside news from her mother last time, she was able to get a job at the department store.

The job was not only easy, but it also paid well.

With weekends off, she had more time to spend with the children.

After this incident, her mother-in-law has been admiring her mother a lot, and the things she brought back this time were actually the ones her mother-in-law asked for.

Lin Xiuwen softly laughed as well, "Mom, we hardly visit home, and this is how we fulfill our filial duties."

Now, his wife earned more monthly than he did, and they often got to purchase good items at cheaper rates from the department store.

His wife was becoming more and more capable, and his mother is starting to like his wife even more than her own son!

However, "Where’s Dad?"

He’d also bought a bottle of sorghum wine especially for his father-in-law.

Ma Xiulian replied, "He’s gone to check on the wheat in the fields."

As a lifetime farmer, the crop in the field is what the farmer cares for most meticulously.

Sanni also came over to greet, "Happy New Year, Auntie and Uncle."

Lin Xiuwen responded warmly while Chen Honghong directly gave her a piece of date cake, "Here, have a taste."

"Thank you, Auntie."

In the room, Erni, who had been lying on the bed, heard Sanni receiving a treat and was desperate to get one as well, but she didn’t want to lose face by going out to beg.

So, she deliberately knocked a tea mug from the cabinet to the floor, making a loud noise.

She wanted her aunt to see how pitiful she was, and feel sorry for her.

Upon hearing the noise, Chen Honghong asked, "Is there someone else in the room?"

The smile on Ma Xiulian’s face faded, "It’s Erni, just ignore her."

Seeing her change her expression, Chen Honghong knew that Erni must have done something to upset her, so she decided, indeed, to ignore her.

However, she thought to herself that she would quietly inquire later about what had happened.

After all, her mother was such a tolerant and reasonable person, she wouldn’t hold such small mistakes against anyone.

When Erni in the room didn’t see her aunt come in to see her after a while, she felt wronged and angry, almost grinding her teeth in frustration.

On the back hillside, having not found even a single rabbit or chicken feather, an exasperated Helian Qiao stood with hands on her hips.
