Chapter 42: Eat Whatever is Available
"What can she do?" Bai Xue muttered.
"Of course she can! Just tell Old An that you're not feeling well. If you do that, the responsibility will naturally fall on An Hao." Bai Yanjiao said confidently.
Bai Xue was half-convinced, but since her daughter had suggested an idea, she might as well try it. Who knows, it might work.
When An Shuchao came back from playing chess under the stage at the village entrance, Bai Xue told him she wasn't feeling well and probably wouldn't be able to cook that day.
"No worries! You just rest up. I'll go tell An Hao to make a meal," he said. Lately, Bai Xue had been taking such good care of him that he was completely comfortable.
So, he turned a blind eye to things at home.
After all, Bai Xue's ex-husband had died trying to save him. He felt guilty towards Bai Xue, and it was because of this that when she came to him with tears in her eyes, leading Bai Yanjiao, he agreed to marry her again despite knowing the family was in a difficult situation.
