"What business are you doing? Hide the small yellow croaker first!"

Jiang Yue originally wanted to find a small box to put all the gold bars in, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find a suitable one. So she simply took a piece of cloth, wrapped the gold bars, and then stuffed it into the innermost part of the closet.

"I have to go to the scrap yard tomorrow to take another look. Maybe I can find something good here!" Jiang Yue strongly suspected that Pei Xueyun had given the scrap yard owner a hidden treasure hunting buff when writing the book. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain how so many good things could be found in the scrap yard in this small county town.

"As long as you are happy!" Gu Ye did not object to his money-loving wife's treasure hunt, although the treasures she found seemed very ordinary to him, as he had seen too many of them since he was a child.

Jiang Yue was about to lie down when Gu Ye picked her up.

"Huh? What?" Jiang Yue asked Gu Ye with her eyes. Wasn't he supposed to be doing business, or was he trying to play some tricks again?

"Ningning is here, let's go to another place, otherwise you won't dare to hum or scream!"

Jiang Yue: “…”

In the past, she thought she was thick-skinned and she was the one who took the initiative towards Gu Ye. But now she realized that after this old cadre was unlocked, he said some dirty words, and now every time she is the one who gets her face flushed and her heart beats fast.

Gu Ye directly carried Jiang Yue to the east room and locked the door. Soon, a blushing and heart-pounding sound came from inside...

Early in the morning, Jiang Yue was tired after a night of sleep and was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly woken up by Gu Ye.

"Well, don't disturb me! I want to sleep!" Jiang Yue pulled up the quilt to cover her head.

They say that a long separation is better than a new marriage. She finally experienced it last night. Gu Ye was too crazy, and as a result, she couldn't get up in the morning.

So Jiang Yue was particularly dissatisfied with Gu Ye for coming to bother her so early in the morning, thinking that everyone had the same physical strength as him!

"Jiang Yue, Yang Cuiling came over and said someone set fire outside the store last night—"

"What?" Jiang Yue's sleepiness disappeared completely. He didn't care about the pain in his body and sat up from the bed.

"Who set the fire? Has anyone been caught?"

"Get up first and listen to what Yang Cuiling has to say!" Gu Ye took clothes for Jiang Yue. The weather was cold now, so Jiang Yue had already put on a woolen sweater. She would also wear a thin padded jacket at home.

"Sister Jiang Yue!" Yang Cuiling was in the yard, feeling a little embarrassed.

This was not her first time to come to Jiang Yue's house. Jiang Yue had brought her here twice before, but Gu Ye was not at home at that time, so Yang Cuiling was more comfortable.

When she came here early this morning, she was stopped at the gate and couldn't get in. She said she wanted to find Captain Gu's family, so the soldier on guard came to ask Gu Ye for permission before bringing her in.

But when Yang Cuiling saw Gu Ye, she didn't even dare to raise her head and her face blushed when she spoke. Gu Ye only heard Yang Cuiling say that someone set fire outside the clothing store. This was a serious matter, so he risked making Jiang Yue angry and came in to wake her up.

Jiang Yue saw Yang Cuiling standing in the yard and waved to her, "Silly girl, come in, isn't it cold outside?"

Yang Cuiling glanced at Gu Ye secretly, but for some reason, she didn't dare to look at Gu Ye.

Although she had worked with Lian Rongrong in the clothing store for a long time, and there were many young men coming into the store to buy clothes, Yang Cuiling felt that Gu Ye was different from those men. He was too handsome and tall, and he had a very strong aura whenever he stood there.

Gu Ye would occasionally come to the store. She had secretly observed that when Jiang Yue was with Gu Ye, she would either laugh or scold him, or act coquettishly and cute. Well, cute, these two words were taught to her by Jiang Yue, and she felt that they were particularly vivid when used to describe Jiang Yue.

Whenever Jiang Yue was unhappy, she would get angry at Gu Ye, and every time Gu Ye had to coax her.

Sometimes Yang Cuiling secretly admired Jiang Yue in her heart. Gu Ye was the team leader, and only Jiang Yue dared to speak to Gu Ye like that.

In fact, Yang Cuiling knew that every time Gu Ye came to the store, many girls nearby would come specially just to see Gu Ye. She thought Jiang Yue knew it too, so every time there were a lot of girls around, Jiang Yue would show her affection with Gu Ye.

Well, show affection, these three words were also taught to her by Jiang Yue -

"Cui Ling, what's going on?" Jiang Yue was getting anxious, but saw Yang Cui Ling standing there in a daze. Isn't this girl usually very smart?

Yang Cuiling was startled and came to her senses. She realized that she was thinking too much and her face turned red with embarrassment.

"Sister Jiang Yue, my grandma heard a noise outside the door in the middle of the night yesterday, and thought it was just someone passing by, so she ignored it. But when we got up in the morning and opened the shop, we found a pile of matches and some cotton wool at the door. It looked like they were trying to stuff it in through the crack in the door, but for some reason they didn't light up!" Yang Cuiling calmed herself down and told her the situation.

Jiang Yue frowned and looked at Gu Ye, "It does sound like someone deliberately set the fire!"

Gu Ye asked Yang Cuiling, "Are those things still there?"

Yang Cuiling shook her head, "We swept it away when we opened the store."

Gu Ye hesitated for a moment and said, "If it was intentional arson, then it would definitely happen again if it didn't succeed last night! You better be alert these few nights!"

"Okay!" Yang Cuiling agreed, "Then Sister Jiang Yue, I'll go back first!"

Yang Cuiling discussed the matter with Aunt Yang and felt that it was a bit serious, so she had to tell Jiang Yue, so she rode the shop's bicycle over early in the morning.

"Drive slowly!" After seeing Yang Cuiling off, Jiang Yue felt a little worried. Aunt Yang and Yang Cuiling are one old and one young. If someone really set the fire maliciously, they would both be in danger.

"Don't worry! I'm here!" Gu Ye comforted Jiang Yue, "If not, I'll take everyone to stay in the store!"

"That's not appropriate. You can't stay there all night!" Jiang Yue frowned. "Could it be that someone saw that my store was doing well and had a pink eye attack, so they came here to cause trouble on purpose?"

"It's possible!" Gu Ye narrowed his eyes. No matter who it is, if they dare to cause trouble, he will not let them go!

Today is Sunday and Ningning doesn't have to go to kindergarten. Jiang Yue originally planned to take Ningning to the city zoo and inspect the city branch. But now that the arson incident has happened, she is not in the mood to go.

I explained it to Ningning, and Ningning was very sensible and said she would go next time.

After Jiang Yue washed up and had breakfast, she went to the county town. Gu Ye wanted to accompany her, but there was only one women's bicycle at home and Gu Ye couldn't ride it. If he went with her, Jiang Yue would have to walk. So Jiang Yue asked him to stay at home to take care of Ningning while she went to take a look first.

The main reason was that Jiang Yue felt that the situation was not serious, otherwise Yang Cuiling would not be so calm.

After arriving, Jiang Yue found that everything in the clothing store was normal. Except for a few burn marks from matches falling on the ground at the door, there was nothing unusual.

However, since this happened, Jiang Yue did not dare to take it lightly and explained it solemnly to Aunt Yang and Yang Cuiling.

"Auntie, Cuiling, if there is a fire, don't rush in. The first thing to do is to ensure your own safety! We can get our property back if we lose it, but we only have one life! You must remember what I said, those are external things, life is the most important!"

Jiang Yue was worried about something, so she stayed in the clothing store for a while and then went back to the courtyard. When she got home, she didn't see Gu Ye, and Ning Ning was not there either. When she went out to ask, she was told that Gu Ye was called by the teacher to go fishing.
