Chapter 162 The three of them were punished together.

However, she also knew that it was useless to say such things. As long as her stinky old man went to this brat or her daughter to complain, she would probably have those two girls go to the county to help buy cigarettes without saying a word.
That's why those old men didn't dare to hide too much money; they only had enough to buy a pack of cigarettes for a few cents. Otherwise, they would have had to ask those two brats to bring back alcohol for them.
Don't think she doesn't know. A few days ago, the little girl secretly gave her uncle a bottle of wine and hid it under the kang (heated brick bed) in her father-in-law's room. She thought she hid it well and that no one knew.
Little did she know, her father-in-law discovered it that very night, and the bottle of wine is now in her locked cabinet.
Want a drink? No way!
She planned to open that bottle of wine when Xiaobai and Xiaomeng came to her house for dinner during the Chinese New Year, so that the children could have a good New Year.
"Alright, now that you've finished your work, go back. You two go eat at your aunt's. You've been working hard all afternoon, why bother cooking?" Li Cuier looked at the little girl's rosy cheeks and couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
Normally fair-skinned and clean-cut, this child hasn't done any strenuous work since joining the animal husbandry team. Even when moving heavy objects in the stable, Black Wind and Jujube are there to help. If it weren't for the fact that this little girl was really too idle in the afternoon and started running around aimlessly, lest those gossipy people in the brigade start spouting nonsense again, she wouldn't have confined this little girl to the field and made her behave for an afternoon.
"No need, Auntie. I'm at the educated youth compound. There's no need for her to cook. She already prepared the dishes for dinner at noon. I'll just stir-fry them when I get back." Fang Meng raised her hand and patted the little girl's head, smiling as she looked at Li Cuie.
Li Cuie was genuinely startled this time. She looked at Fang Meng, the child, seriously, and then at Bai Nuo.
Seeing that the two of them looked used to it, I knew that it was true, and that it was their usual behavior.
This was something she really hadn't expected. Although Fang Meng wasn't often in the brigade, she knew him quite well because he was close to her husband, and she also really liked this young man.
Although this young man has a bit of a temper, if a woman angers him, he might even kick her. He doesn't care what others say, and he's all for the sake of saying whatever they want, as long as they don't expect him to put up with it.
His family must be quite well-off, and he himself is very hard-working. I wonder how many girls in his brigade and the surrounding brigades have their eyes on this young man.
It's a pity that Fang Meng is indifferent to everyone, whether male or female. He seems to look down on everyone and keeps a distance from them. In their brigade, you can only hear a few words from his husband.
As a result, he was in charge of cooking for his childhood sweetheart, while Bai Nuo seemed to have no chores to do.
That's really strange!
Li Cuie knew that the two children had something on their minds, and they were really reluctant to eat her food. Although she didn't think it was a big deal, besides, she had been sending pheasants and rabbits these past two days. Although there was something fishy going on, it was still meat, and every family needed it.
As a result, the two children were sent over just like that, and she didn't know what to say!
"Alright then, your aunt won't argue with you two. But after a few days of rest, you must come over for dinner tonight. Your Grandpa Wei has been nagging you about this several times. Don't let him go to the educated youth compound to catch you personally, understand?" Li Cuie smiled and pointed at the two of them, her tone threatening, but her eyes were full of gentleness.
Bai Nuo glanced at Fang Meng, and seeing that the other nodded, she nodded as well: "Okay!"
Afterwards, Bai Nuo and Fang Meng led Hei Feng towards the animal husbandry team; they still had to take this guy back.
"Why are we going to Auntie's house for dinner on Sunday?" Bai Nuo asked Fang Meng curiously.
"That day was Grandpa Wei's birthday, but it looks like there won't be a banquet. It'll just be a few members of the Wei family and the two of us having a meal together." Fang Meng took out a handkerchief from his pocket, unfolded it, placed it in his palm, and then slapped it directly onto the little girl's face. The movement was so big that he almost pushed the little girl to the ground.
Bai Nuo: "..."
Fang Meng: "..."
"Hui!" Black Wind stepped forward and slammed his head into Fang Meng's head.
"Hey, Uncle, I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it!" Fang Meng shrank back and ran forward hastily, followed by a big black horse that was cursing loudly.
"Uncle, calm down. I really didn't mean it. Look at that brat's face, it looks like a little kitten's face. I just wanted to wipe it with a handkerchief!"
