Chapter 581: Chapter 581: Taking the Kids and Going Back First
"Bai Xiao, aren’t we going to make dumplings? Let’s give you a hand, you do your cooking, and we’ll make dumplings over here, working separately so we can finish quickly. When they come back, we can eat right away," Liu Yun started to take charge, and here she was definitely Bai Xiao’s close sister in arms.
The others also nodded eagerly, "Yes! Yes, we’ll make dumplings."
Wei looked at everyone finding aprons and cutting boards, already bustling about. She didn’t want to get involved, sitting comfortably here, cracking sunflower seeds, eating apples—how nice it was! She could only relax like this at home during holidays.
Doctor Bai and Chief An really are rich.
It seemed having such a boss—and neighbor—would mean no shortage of perks in the future. Doctor Bai didn’t really get angry just now; it was only about not letting her take away a whole pack of biscuits. She seemed to care about her face, which meant things would be easier to handle.
Dealing with the shameless made her fear for her husband’s reputation; after all, she was well aware that away from here, her man was good for nothing, and the whole family was depending on him. Her probing was to see if she could possibly snag some benefits. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝔬𝔪
It seemed promising.
Holding Huzi, she said to Bai Xiao, "Doctor Bai, I’m really sorry, my Huzi is at that age where he’s bound to be troublesome. My job is to keep an eye on him so he doesn’t bother you." And yet, she said this with a straight face.
Even the people who came with her were disgusted by her shameless words.
Doing nothing but showing up for a free meal.
People began to feel sorry for Hu Biao. Hu Biao was popular in the team, but it was such a wife who tirelessly ruined everything.
Bai Xiao didn’t speak, while Liu Yun snorted, "Wei, Huzi is indeed at a mischievous age. Why don’t you take Huzi home to avoid causing trouble? We have a lot of people and things going on here; what if the child gets hurt by accident?"
Wei’s face darkened. She thought to herself that despite being new, Liu Yun sure didn’t hold back, always ready to show her displeasure. She hadn’t eaten at her house, so why was she in such a rush!
"Doctor Liu, that’s not right of you. This is Chief An and Doctor Bai’s home. The hosts haven’t spoken yet, and you are taking charge like this? If someone didn’t know better, they might think you could take Chief An’s place in this house!" The words came out rather unpleasant.
Liu Yun’s face darkened instantly. "Wei Jianling, how can you have such nasty thoughts? I should find your husband Hu Biao and ask him what the crime of slander is?"
Wei sneered, "Go ahead and ask. I’m not a guest in your house. How dare you speak to me so rudely? Who started the trouble if not you, who thinks you can bully a country woman like me just because you are an educated person? Doctor Bai, you should judge this! You haven’t said a word, and Doctor Liu is already accusing us, almost pointing at our noses and calling us freeloaders. But my child is young, am I not supposed to take care of him?"
She wasn’t afraid; she just worried that Bai Xiao wouldn’t step in. Could Chief An’s wife really bully people?
She was like a roof tile, not afraid of these sophisticated folks.
"Wei, what Doctor Liu said makes sense. It’s indeed not convenient for you to be here with a child. It’s my thought too. You should take the child home first and come back with his father for dinner, so we can avoid any accidents with the child."
Bai Xiao was not going to indulge Wei; she had realized that Wei was shameless. If you were too concerned about your own face, she would just walk all over you.
