On the other side of the main house, Madame Gao was just about to go for a stroll in the second room when the third house suddenly made its move.

"Mom, I just saw that stinking brat Si Lang sneaking around. He was at the back of Second Aunt's house peeking through the window. And I could hear him swallowing at a distance. I'm guessing that Second Aunt's family must have cooked something delicious. "

The person who spoke was Erlang Tian, Yu Gui. He had been in a messy and slovenly state all day, and his mucus had always hung below his nose. He was too lazy to wipe it off.

The sleeves of his clothes were shiny with oil. Who knew how many times he had smeared snot on them to save them from being starched.

He was already fourteen years old this year, but he was still greedy for food. Madame Jiang was very worried about her second son's future marriage.

Tian Dahu wasn't home today. He couldn't afford to be idle, so other than not working and doing good things, he would do anything else.

They were like stealing chickens and dogs, fighting each other. Recently, they were even tricked into the gambling den, but they became uncontrollable, as if they were possessed.

"Sigh, your dad has nothing to do all day. This has truly caused you all to suffer. It's all your fault, if only she hadn't given you and Second Aunt's family away. Now that her family is free, Mother and you, Eldest Aunt, are pitiful. Especially you lazy bastards, all sorts of things like work and so on. "

Madame Jiang began to complain to the children, a pained expression on her face. She had just returned from a trip home. Not only did she not borrow any silver coins, she even got a nose full of dust.

The old tutor was a man who valued his son more than his daughter. In his eyes, a married daughter was like pouring out water. How could he still care about borrowing silver from his mother? Having a girl was originally a matter of losing money. If he were to give money to his wife, he wouldn't even think about it.

This time when she returned, her family didn't even leave her a single meal and directly chased her out.

"Mom, now is not the time to talk about this. That brat Si Lang is being sneaky, there must be something going on." Jiro reminded him again.

"Mother knows, if there's really something delicious in your second uncle's house, based on Si Lang's temper, he will definitely go back and tell his mother." Once Eldest Aunt finds out, she'll definitely go to the second room and cause trouble. We'll just keep an eye on you, Eldest Aunt. "If you see her take something out from Second Aunt's house, then we'll have to bite off more than we can chew."

When Erlang Shen heard this, his eyes immediately lit up. Tian Yufang, who was standing to the side, did not think much of it and pouted her lips.

"Mom, let me say it. Let's just go straight to Second Aunt's house." If we just openly ask them for it, would they dare to not give it to us? "

She was the third wife's only daughter, Tian Yufang. She was ten years old this year, but Madame Jiang was already worrying about her marriage.

With her personality, ordinary people wouldn't dare to marry her into their family. Tian Yufang was already used to bullying the two siblings. This time, when he heard that the second room was secretly making food, he immediately became angry.

"Yufang, you have to change your personality. You can't just stick your head out and be a gun. If this happens, the things that we get might not belong to us. When the time comes, we might even get into trouble. "Listen to mom. We'll just keep an eye on you, Eldest Aunt."

The older the better, Tian Yufang calmed down, and felt that her mother's words made sense. Thus, she and Erlang and the two of them stayed by the window, staring fixedly at the movements of the West Side Room in front of them.

"Achoo, choo!" Tian Yuqiao sneezed a few times and rubbed her nose speechlessly.

"Sis, did you catch a cold?" Tian Yutang asked with concern.

Tian Yuqiao comforted her. "Don't worry, your sister's in good shape. I think the crow was calling out to you just now. Hur Hur."

Tian Yutang seemed to understand a little, but he still nodded his head. That little look was as cute as it could be.

The dumplings in the pot were turning flowers, and the water in the pot was boiling. The fragrance of the wheat that was unique to the white noodle constantly emanated from the wok, causing one to be unable to help but salivate.

"Shh, there's movement outside. It seems like someone came out from uncle's house." Tian Yuqiao said in a low voice.

When Madame Wang heard this, the wooden spoon in her hand fell into the pot. Her expression changed instantly.

There were still some dumplings in the kitchen that didn't get to go in. Tian Yuqiao gestured to Yutang and quickly hid the dumplings. The dumplings that had already been cooked were waiting to be scooped out of the pot.

Who would have thought that the person in this old residence had such a sharp nose. Even though they were being this careful, they were still able to sniff it out. Could it be that those people had a dog's nose? Tian Yuqiao silently cursed in her heart.

As expected, there was a knock on the door. Seeing that there was no activity from inside the house, the person said, "Sister Second Brother, I'm your sister-in-law. Open the door, I have something to talk to you about."

Madame Wang placed the cooked dumplings into a large wooden basin and hid it inside a large wooden box inside the house. It was as if she had become a thief. Her face was somewhat pale.

"Mother, I'm going to open the door." Tian Yuqiao said.

Madame Wang nodded. "Mm, go on. Don't make Eldest Aunt wait too long." She purposely said this out loud.

Tian Yuqiao had just pulled the bolt when Madame Gao, who was outside, couldn't wait to squeeze her fat body in.

As soon as she entered, her rodent-like eyes began to sow all over the place.

"Oh? What is Eldest Aunt looking for?" Could they be here to catch the thief? " Tian Yuqiao hugged her shoulders and looked at Madame Gao with a smile.

When Madame Gao heard this, the expression on her face twitched. Qiao Er, you little girl. I haven't seen you in the past few days, but you seem to have become more sharp-tongued now, hur hur. "

Madame Gao saw that there was nothing special in the kitchen. After all, it was only a small space. It could be said that it could be seen at a glance. Thus, she held Madame Wang's hand and entered the house as if they were on good terms.

After entering the room, she scanned through it a few more times, but still couldn't find anything. She was somewhat unresigned. After all, when she first entered the room, the smell was very familiar. It was definitely white.

There was indeed a small amount of white flour on the edge of the brick bed. When Madame Gao saw it, she was overjoyed.

Just now, when she came in, she did not open the pot in the second room. The pot was still steaming hot, probably because the dumplings were still being cooked.

Thinking up to here, Madame Gao couldn't help but suck in a mouthful of saliva. She chatted nonchalantly with Madame Wang about some irrelevant topics, but her eyes kept glancing in the direction of the kitchen.
