Chapter 533 Scan, Scan All

Too many things have happened to Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao recently. Chu Yaoyao was one thing, and the accidental fire was another. The sisters-in-law in the compound all heard about it and were extremely worried. They wanted to go directly to the hospital a few days ago.

Later, they were stopped by Song Hongmei. They said that if so many people went, it would only cause more trouble. They gave Chu Yue some time to handle it herself. If she had anything to say, she could ask her after returning to the compound.

They waited for a long time and finally waited for Chu Yue to come back safely. They also heard that Chu Yaoyao and Li A'mei had been arrested and all the problems were settled. So they came to take a look.

So the person who came in at this time was not only Chen Fengying. Behind Chen Fengying followed Xia Xiaolan, Wang Chunling, Wang Xiulan, Li Dahua... many other people came.

Among them, Wang Xiulan is the most conspicuous. She is almost five months pregnant, her belly is already round and protruding, and she walks with her feet apart and swaying.

The yard, which had been silent for a long time, became as lively as the weather.

Chu Yue knew that Chen Fengying and the others would definitely come, and they were the guests she was waiting for. After eating a can of plums, she felt much more energetic and immediately got up to greet them.

Chen Fengying was the first to walk in. As soon as she entered the door, she was so excited to see Chu Yue.

She reminded Xia Xiaolan who was standing beside her, "Give it to me, give me the leaves quickly."

Xia Xiaolan handed over a handful of green pomelo leaves. After Chen Fengying took it, she quickly swept the pomelo leaves over Chu Yue.

Chu Yue smiled helplessly, "Sister Chen, I'm fine, nothing happened."

"No, no, it's better to believe it than not to believe it. Pomelo leaves can dispel bad luck. You and Yuanbao should sweep them up. After sweeping them up, you will feel at ease, and so will we."

Wang Chunling, a scholar, nodded and said, "I think Sister Chen is right."

Xia Xiaolan said, "Just bear with it. The smell of grapefruit leaves is refreshing and actually quite pleasant."

Then, Chu Yue just stood there, and Chen Fengying took the pomelo leaves and swept them all over her body, from head to toe, from front to back, leaving no place untouched.

Chen Dazhuang behind him also had a handful of pomelo leaves in his hand, and was sweeping them over Lu Yuanbao in a very professional manner.

Chen Fengying stopped only when she felt that it was enough. She did not forget to put the pomelo leaves aside and reminded Chu Yue to find a bottle to put them in. They could be kept for several days.

After completing the mysterious ceremony, the group sat down to talk.

Chen Fengying looked around Chu Yue's house. "Were those two ungrateful people in your family really arrested? Did they miss anything at home? I've never seen such shameless people. Bah! Even so, they have the nerve to call themselves your mother and sister. They just can't stand seeing you doing well and want to suck your blood."

"Those captured by the soldiers have been sent to the police station. We caught them red-handed. They can't deny it even if they have three mouths." Chu Yue looked at Chen Fengying. "Sister-in-law Chen, I have to thank you for making this go so smoothly."

"What's the point of thanking them? I hate ungrateful people like that. I just asked them to do more work." Chen Fengying said with great emotion, "Sister Chu, I can't believe you had such a hard life before. They didn't even consider you as family."

"It doesn't matter. Those things are in the past. Now Lu Zhanlin and Yuanbao are my family." Chu Yue said indifferently.

Chen Fengying nodded vigorously, "Yes! It doesn't matter if you don't have those relatives! Don't be afraid, all of us can be your relatives."

Xia Xiaolan echoed, "Yes, we are all your relatives, you are not alone."

Wang Chunling said with a worried look on her face, "Sister Chu, did you...did your store really go down in a fire?"

"Yes, yes, there's also this matter. The fire was so big that day, I even saw black smoke."

"The house burned down, and all the things in your store burned down too? This...how much money is lost? Sister Chu, if you have any difficulties, you can tell us. Although we don't have much money, it's definitely no problem to give us a token of our appreciation."

"How is Yuanbao? I heard from Xiuli that you stayed in the hospital for several days. Are you all checked out?"

Chu Yue said, "Sisters-in-law, thank you for your concern. Yuanbao and I are fine. The fire didn't burn us. As for the money, it's really unnecessary. Although there are some financial losses, it's not much. I can handle it."

The part about Fu Yanchen's compensation involved too complicated relationships, and Chu Yue didn't want to get involved, so she didn't mention it at all.

She then said, "The new store is about to open, you must go then."

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"New...new store?"

Chu Yue said, "Yes, it's still the same location, just opposite."

"Opposite...?" The sisters-in-law opened their mouths in shock, and now they opened them even wider. "Opposite... isn't that... He..."

As soon as someone mentioned the word "what", another person pulled her and told her not to say it in front of Chu Yue.

Rumors spread quickly. Lu Zhanlin and Tan Siqi both took leave, and when they came back, the military vehicle had an accident. All kinds of things added up and spread from the army to the compound, and then from the compound to the army.

Because it involved Lu Zhanlin and He Meijiao's family background, everyone was cautious in discussing it privately and did not dare to bring it up in public.

Too many details cannot be made public.

Chu Yue pretended not to hear anything and continued smiling, "The original store was too small, so I rented a bigger one. Sisters-in-law, don't worry about me. This can be considered a blessing in disguise."

Chen Fengying said, "You haven't received such a blessing after such a great disaster. I just hope you are well. First, Captain Lu was injured, and then something happened in your family, and it almost burned you and Yuanbao..."

Wang Chunling interrupted, "Sister-in-law Chen, let's not talk about the past. Good times will surely come in the future."

Chen Fengying realized that she had lost her composure and immediately said a few words, "I'm not good at talking! Ugh! Let's not talk about the past anymore. Sister Chu, you're such a good person. Good fortune must be waiting for you in the future."

As soon as the words fell, a groan was heard from the other side.

"Good news—Sister Chu—good news—"

A voice came out hurriedly from outside, and everyone turned around to look, and saw that it was Song Hongmei.
