Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

Another sleepless night.

Before dawn, the sky was still dark.

Xia Bai'an had already got up early, looked at the sleeping children worriedly, kissed their foreheads before reluctantly leaving, went to the back kitchen to make breakfast with the cooks, and finished eating with the children.

Mo Yu was still a little puzzled: "Mother, were you unhappy last night?"

"A little bit, your father always provokes me, and I can't beat him, so I want to hug you when I come to you." Xia Bai'an said bluntly.

Mo Yu was dumbfounded for a moment.

Lin Miaomiao opened her eyes slightly, and her suspicious gaze quickly turned to Mo Che.

Mo Che, who came late, did not expect to be splashed with dirty water as soon as he arrived in the front hall, and looked at him coldly: "It's because you have a bad temper."

"Whatever you say is whatever you say. Anyway, everyone is mine. Even if you go outside to find other people every night, you still can't escape my clutches." Xia Bai'an snorted coldly, and the slightly uptight fox's eyes were full of winning cards in the grip.

Mo Che shook his head slightly, pressed the corner of his mouth that was about to rise, and Shi Shiran sat down to eat.

Mo Xue thought that the two of them started to quarrel again, and was thinking about whether to help, Xia Bai'an had already put down the bowl and chopsticks.

"I'm stuffed."

"Is there anything else to do today?" Mo Che asked directly.

Of course there is a lot to do.

Xia Baian thought that it would be fine if the twins' identities had to be concealed, and he had previously dealt with Yunxue severely through the Tongjitang and Chenxiang Pavilion incidents.

But she tossed and turned last night, still worried that Mo Qian would stay by Yun Xue's side in the prime minister's residence.

You still have to find a way to get Mo Qian back.

Moreover, she thought of Mo Che's previous position, and thought he would not help her.

"You take care of me. I can do whatever I want. You can take care of yourself before you talk."

Xia Bai'an got up and left, returned to the room, and took out the sapphire hairpin that was found in the tunnel of Chizhuang earlier.

She wanted to go to the prime minister's mansion to see Qian'er, but she had to find a reason.

It's a good reason to go for Chizhuang's affairs.

She asked Ah Yuan to prepare a car for her.

A Yuan said: "The wheel axle of the carriage was frozen and cracked in winter, and it has been replaced these two days. If Madam wants to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, why don't I go outside and rent one..."

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome. I'll just go for a while. The medicinal materials that Tongjitang talked about before have almost arrived. I'll go over and check."

Xia Bai'an waved his hand, added a warm cloak for himself, took a few small wooden carvings made by the twins for Qian'er, and some books and Luban locks that she had prepared long ago, and walked out on his own .

There are many fewer people on the long street.

Instead, a few women who came to buy vegetables muttered in their mouths.

"Everyone hold on to your wallets, there will be a lot of thieves at the end of the year."

"Two days ago, people were killed by stealing things on the poor street. Let's go back later and take a detour."

"They are also idiots. No matter how much you rob the poor street, how can there be rich and powerful people on the street."

"At this time of the year, you still speak for the thief! If your husband finds out, I won't break your mouth!"

Several women left noisily.

Hearing this, Xia Bai'an also tightened his purse, and even put part of the money directly into the space.

Money can't be lost.

But now there are not many plants growing in winter, and the space energy is seriously insufficient, so she has to find a way to save it.

Thinking of this, Xia Bai'an felt like crying.

How could someone through time travel wear such a pitiful appearance like hers!

Just as she was sighing, a cry suddenly came from behind: "Catch him! Thief!"

From the corner of Xia Bai'an's eyes, she only caught a glimpse of an afterimage passing by, and her brain accurately grasped the word "thief". Her body was even one step faster than her brain's reaction, and she rushed forward, grabbing the fleeing black shadow, and using all her strength to catch the black shadow. He pulled, and fell to the ground because of the huge momentum.

The thief snorted, tilted his body, and fell heavily on the ground.

Xia Bai'an got up quickly, upholding the instinct of a good citizen, and wanted to grab him, but felt a sticky scarlet, she took a closer look, half of the thief's face was covered with blood, and he was only wearing a single shirt in winter, There are bruises all over the arms.

Obviously just hit it.

The man also slowly opened his eyes and glanced at her, clutching the money bag in his arms, he was about to get up and run away.

But the people chasing from behind swarmed up, and the leader was a rich man who surrounded him with a dozen thugs: "Beat him to death! Dare to steal my purse, it's terrible!"

Several thugs rushed up in an instant.

The thief's eyes shrank, but he didn't let go of the money bag in his arms, but covered his head and prepared to be beaten.

The expected pain did not come.

Instead, a hand reached directly into his arms.

The thief suddenly opened his eyes wide.

And Xia Bai'an grabbed out the money bag he was clutching tightly with a dark face, threw it into the arms of several thugs, and said loudly.

"People have also been beaten, and the money will be returned to you, let's call it a day."

"my money……"

The thief was shocked and wanted to crawl over to pick up the purse.

Xia Bai'an hurriedly carried the man back, seeing that the wound on his forehead was still bleeding, he was afraid that he would faint immediately when he got up, so he quickly pinned the man to the ground.

The rich young man and the thugs were stunned for a moment.

The rich man scolded angrily: "You count that onion! I'm going to kill this short-sighted guy today, but my money bag is..."

"His head was covered in blood after being beaten by you, and he was still thinking about asking for money. He is obviously a desperado. Do you believe that once I let go, he can desperately bite off a piece of your flesh?"

Xia Bai'an turned his head coldly, with the other hand still pressing the back of the thief's neck to ensure that his head would not move around, and then looked at the thug, "A few steps ahead is the Chengtian Mansion, if the newly appointed Master Sun sees you in the street If you kill someone, you will lose your head!"

The thugs retreated one after another.

The rich young man was obviously stunned for a moment, thinking of Chengtian Mansion's aggressive appearance these past few months, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and go back home.

Xia Bai'an breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to help the thief look at the wound on his head when he suddenly met a pair of ferocious eyes like a beast.

The thief roared hoarsely: "My money... Mother-in-law, I can't hold on anymore! Return my money!"

"Money is more important than life!"

Xia Bai'an yelled at him hating iron and steel, while looking at his age, he was probably only a few years older than Yun Jing, and one or two years younger than himself.

And if it wasn't for the fact that he was born in poverty to steal money, Xia Bai'an would not have helped, and would have been directly escorted to the government.

The thief was yelled at, but struggled with red eyes: "What's the use of this life! As long as it can save my mother-in-law! You can throw away my life!"

"..."

Xia Bai'an was shocked by his roar.

This child looks like a cornered beast.

Xia Bai'an was a little soft-hearted, and slowly let go of him. Unexpectedly, the next moment, he stretched out his hand towards his purse, pulled it off and ran away.

Xia Bai'an was startled, and hurriedly got up to follow: "How ungrateful are you, child!"
