"Hey! Mrs. Zhou, give me some money!" Li Ji came back from playing wildly outside and ran to Zhou Shichu, asking her for money rudely.

Zhou Shichu squinted his eyes and asked, "Why do you want so much money?"

"You don't have to worry about so much! Just give me the money." Li Ji said impatiently.

"Dream that I give you a lot of money? What a good idea you have. Your father only gives me a lot of money for my whole family in a month. It's better for you. You want a lot of money as soon as you ask. You are so powerful, why don't you earn this money yourself?

Always money?" Zhou Shichu couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard his lion's mouth open.

"Don't you always have a lot of money? Didn't you make a lot of money selling steamed buns? In addition, my father gave it to you, so why can't you come up with a mere amount of money? You just refused to give it to me, right? After all, my second mother didn't have a good one.

, he is well fed and clothed, but he abuses his stepson..." Li Ji stared at his bull's eyes and said angrily to Zhou Shichu.

"Yes, my stepmother is not a good person. Since you all know that I am not a good person, how can you have the nerve to ask me for money? You even pay attention to the money I get from selling buns. Who gave you the courage?

?The money I earn, I would rather give it to a beggar on the street than give you a penny!" Zhou Shichu snorted coldly.

Li Ji was so angry that his chest kept heaving, and his eyes looked as if he wanted to eat Zhou Shichu. He was so fierce. He pointed at Zhou Shichu and said: "You are my stepmother, so the money you earn should be given to me! If you don't give it,

I have money, so when I grow up, I will definitely not care about you and leave you alone, with no one to collect the corpses for you..."

"Are you kidding me? You and I might die first! Also, you don't need to care about me after I die, and I don't expect you to take care of my body in old age. I'm worried that you will contaminate my body." Zhou Shichu

He said in a very angry way.

To be honest, she is indeed likely to die later than Li Ji. After all, women are born to live longer than men, not to mention that in this era of war and chaos, men are more likely to have accidents. Although Li Ji is Li Wei's son, if Zicheng

Father's business, then Li Ji, a reckless and brainless person, will definitely die on the battlefield.

"You, you vicious and cruel woman! If you don't give me money, don't blame me for being rude..." Li Ji was so angry that he couldn't scold Zhou Shichu, let alone beat him, so he could only be so ruthless.

words.

"Oh? How can you be rude to me?" Zhou Shichu glanced at Li Ji with undisguised contempt. Li Ji glared at her fiercely, turned around and left.

Zhou Shichu thought about it and realized that if Li Ji couldn't gain the upper hand with her, he would probably seek revenge on his sister, so she found Zhou Shiwan who was playing with mud in the vegetable garden and said, "Don't go to Li Ji recently."

Go ahead and stay away from him. If he bullies you, just tell me and ignore him."

Zhou Shiwan nodded quickly. She had nothing to do with Li Ji, and their relationship was unfamiliar and distant. Li Ji had always looked down on her, a cheap aunt who was dull and younger than him, and didn't bother to look at her more, so Zhou Shiwan

Shi Wan naturally listened to her sister and did whatever her sister asked her to do.

"Sister, look at the puppy I made." Zhou Shiwan enthusiastically handed the small clay thing in his hand to Zhou Shichu to take a look at.

Zhou Shichu took a look and saw that the little ball of mud didn't look like a puppy at all, but if she said it was a puppy, then it was a puppy. Zhou Shichu was very tolerant towards children, so he nodded and said, "Good job, continue."

Let’s play.”

So Zhou Shiwan happily lowered his head to squeeze the clay ball again, and said while doing so: "Now I want to squeeze a sister."

Zhou Shichu:...it’s better to stop pinching, right?

Zhou Shichu looked at the black ball of mud on her little hand. With her skill at pinching a puppy, she really didn't know what the "sister" she pinched would look like in the end.

Out of sight and out of mind, Zhou Shichu turned around and left.

Because Li Ji asked her for money but failed, Zhou Shichu changed his mind and put all the money he earned into the space as a precaution, leaving only the two coins that Li Wei gave her for household use.<

/p>

Zhou Shichu did not lie to Li Ji. Li Wei indeed only left two quid of money, which would last two months, so she said it was true that Li Wei gave her family a month's worth of money.

In this era, the usual money is one thousand penny, which is a thousand copper plates. When converted into silver, it is only one tael of silver, but one penny can buy a steamed bun. The various delicious steamed buns with thin skin and rich fillings made by Zhou Shichu only cost 2 taels.

We only have a small amount of money, so you can imagine how excessive it would be for Li Jicai's child, who is only a few years old, to ask Zhou Shichu for money.

Ordinary people would probably not be able to use enough money in a month. In addition to household expenses, the money Li Wei gave actually included Zhou Shichu's squandered pocket money. After all, the original owner used to make a fuss and ask him for money.<

/p>

Of course, if it had been Zhou Shichu, he would not have squandered his money.

Li Ji's temper has gone awry now, and if he can't get money from her, he will probably think of some evil ways to deal with her, so it's impossible for her not to be on guard, after all, she has a cheap sister.

Li Ji came back during dinner. He had a cold war with Zhou Shichu because of money. Of course, the two of them usually had nothing to say. It was the most plastic step-mother relationship. But at that time, they at most pretended that the other person did not exist, but now, Li Ji

Ji still didn't talk to Zhou Shichu, but he looked at Zhou Shichu with a nose that was not a nose, and eyes that were not eyes. He would also snort at her from time to time and roll his eyes, making it clear that he had fallen out with Zhou Shichu.

Zhou Shichu didn't pay attention to his little actions at all and turned a blind eye to him. Li Ji became even more angry when he saw that he couldn't anger her. His opponent didn't care about his provocation at all. It would be strange if he didn't die of anger!

Zhou Shichu, as usual, went to bed with Zhou Shiwan after washing up.

Just when she was drowsily asleep, and her consciousness was about to fall into a sweet dream, she suddenly heard the door of her room being gently pushed open. She was suddenly shaken and woke up instantly, her sleepiness disappearing without a trace.

There was moonlight shining in from the window, so the room was not actually dark, and people could be seen dimly. In addition, after Zhou Shichu came, she had developed her internal strength and her five senses were sharper, so she saw it at a glance and secretly opened the door and came in.

The person is none other than Li Ji.

Li Ji's movements were very light. If Zhou Shichu hadn't been alert, he wouldn't have known what he was doing. He was obviously prepared. As soon as he came in, he walked towards the locker at the end of the bed that served as Zhou Shichu's dressing cabinet.

The locker actually contained the sisters' clothes and a small amount of cheap jewelry. The money was not stored there at all, but Li Ji didn't know that, so he rummaged there.
