Chapter 210 I'm in Charge Now!

Luo and his companions didn't want to cause any trouble on their ordinary bus ride.

But I was still speechless by this old lady's bizarre actions!

He'd seen plenty of ruthless people...

But it's really rare to see such a ruthless shrew who treats others without any reason!

He subtly gave a wink to his subordinates...

Several people quickly surrounded the old woman...

She sensed something was wrong and, trembling, pointed in Zhou Ye's direction, saying, "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

The person is over there!

You bullied her in the past, and she definitely wouldn't dare to fight back!

But the thugs she thought were there were grinning wickedly, seemingly uninterested in Zhou.

Anyway, they surrounded her.

The elderly woman panicked: "What are you going to do? I'm so old, what do you want to do?"

That's outrageous!

My son is an official, so get out of my way!

Upon hearing this, Zhou glanced at the object and couldn't help but wonder if those people had unusual tastes.

This flavor is a bit strong!

The thugs chuckled and said, "Auntie, since you're so interested in us, wouldn't it be a shame if we didn't satisfy you?"

Zhou, who was listening nearby, grinned slightly.

Brother Luo saw it... Brother Luo's expression changed, and he coughed!

After that, the thugs stopped talking nonsense!

They surrounded her and, under the terrified gaze of the old woman, began to beat her mercilessly.

The driver in front was so scared that his hands were trembling a little!

I thought to myself, "Please don't cause me any trouble!"

They actually pulled in this bunch of thugs!

But it was that woman who brought trouble upon herself; no one provoked her, yet she deliberately stirred up trouble!

You can't blame anyone else!

Serves you right!

But... I'm just the driver! If you hit her, you can't hit me back!

After the old woman was beaten, she squatted on the ground and couldn't even cry.

She couldn't understand it either...

Why? These guys aren't interested in that little girl; instead, they've come to beat me up.

They call themselves thugs, but they have absolutely no professional ethics as thugs.

He was plotting revenge in his heart! Once they got off the bus, he'd have his son arrest all these people and give them a good beating!

We must get revenge!

But unexpectedly!

Brother Luo told the driver to stop the car and threw the woman out!

She sat down on a stone by the roadside and cried out in pain!

He shouted in a panic, "What are you doing? I paid for this! What are you doing? You hit me and threw me around?"

Let me up here!

I want to go home!

There are no tickets left for today's train!

But no matter how much they shouted, the car door still closed...

She was only in her forties or fifties, not very old, but her face was full of meanness and wrinkles!

She looks exactly like a woman in her sixties or seventies!

Luo Ge patted the driver on the shoulder and said, "Master, nobody saw what happened today."

You didn't pull her, and I haven't seen her either, understand?

The driver quickly nodded.

Yeah, who wants to cause trouble?

He had never seen her before; apart from this group of people, he had never seen this old woman before.

Seeing that the driver was sensible, Brother Luo even gave him a five-yuan tip!

This was a truly unexpected and delightful surprise for the driver.

He quickly stuffed the five yuan into his pocket. When did these thugs become so ethical? Had he finally encountered some thugs with good morals?

They taught the troublemaking shrew a lesson.

He'll give himself a kickback?

If I could run into a few like that every time I wanted to, wouldn't I be making a fortune?

With a wide grin, I became even more steady while driving.

Chaoyang looked at the old woman under the car and said angrily to Zhou Ye, "Xiao Ye, you're a bad person, I haven't hit you yet."

Zhou couldn't help but laugh.

"Aren't you satisfied yet? Look at how badly he was beaten; there's not a single patch of good skin on his body! I doubt it'll heal in a month!"

Chaoyang raised his chin slightly, took Zhou Ye's hand, and said, "Xiao Ye, don't be angry. You're the best girl!"

I like you the most!

Next time we meet, we'll fight you every time we see you!

Keep hitting!

Keep hitting!

These words made Zhou laugh heartily.

The old woman never expected that she would be thrown off the bus.

She was visiting her daughter, who had married and moved to the provincial capital, while her son worked at the county police station.

She has always been proud, and the people around her have always treated her with deference and fawning!

For so many years, who has ever dared to treat me like this?

Who would have thought that at my age, I would encounter such bastards!

This is something she cannot accept!

Looking at the road ahead, she wondered how long it would take to walk back.

However, the place where he was abandoned was in the middle of nowhere. He had no choice but to sigh and carry his bundle on his back and continue walking.

I just hope to get to a populated area before dark!

What if there are wolves?

In his heart, he was cursing Zhou Ye and the others to death!

As for those thugs, in the old lady's heart, they had already died many times over!

They cursed everyone from their ancestors for 18 generations to their descendants for 18 generations to come.

But what good does cursing do? No one can hear it, no one cares. In the end, you'll be hoarse, hungry, and tired, but you still have to keep going, right?

This time, we learned our lesson.

Zhou Ye and Brother Luo arrived in the county town quickly, and Zhou Ye immediately arranged for Brother Luo to gather information from all directions.

The county town is their base, so there's no concern about where they live.

Next, we'll go back to Hongqi Village.

I wonder if Xie Jianshe has told Wang Guihua and Xie Youfu about his return! He probably has, after all, Xie Jianshe is always very prudent in his actions!

I bought some meat and candy at the supply and marketing cooperative, and then rode back home in a creaking oxcart!

Hearing the sound of an oxcart on the road, Wang Guihua and Xie Youfu ran out to see if Zhou Ye had returned!

They rushed out in a hurry!

"Oh, it really is Xiaoye!"

Miao Zhaodi sat under the big tree outside the door, chatting with people from the same village.

They were startled to see Zhou Ye return! Zhou Ye, upon seeing them, simply nodded without calling out.

Miao Zhaodi has finally found an excuse!

"Hey, what brings you back?"

Zhou glanced at her, not liking her anyway, so he didn't force himself to greet her. He just gave a casual "hmm" and was about to go back!

Miao Zhaodi wouldn't stand for it!

That's why some people just don't learn their lesson!

They've already learned their lesson from Zhou Ye, but they still don't learn!

She shouted loudly, "Xiao Ye, I'm still your aunt. You've gone to the provincial capital, don't you even have the most basic manners?"

Don't you know how to call for help?

Zhou didn't have time to argue with her, and rolled his eyes at her: "Just because I didn't go to the provincial capital doesn't mean I'll pay attention to you!"

Since you're supposed to be my elder, I've come all this way back, and you haven't even poured me a glass of water? Hmm?

My own aunt?

Then he rolled his eyes and said directly to Wang Guihua, "Mom and Dad, let's go back."

They simply left Miao Zhaodi standing there at the door.

Miao Zhaodi pointed at Zhou Ye in disbelief: "Look at this, look at this! How can this child be so impolite!"

And now they're lecturing me?

ah?

You saw that, didn't you?"

The villagers burst into laughter...

"Yes, dear aunt, what kind of food are you bringing for the child? Aren't you an elder?"

"That's right, Xiaoye's back. Shouldn't you, her dear aunt, prepare some food and drink for her? Where are you?"

"Hurry back and get ready! How rude of you!"

"Yes, let's not even talk about the kids, what about you?"

"You...you..." Miao Zhaodi was furious...

Pointing at them, he asked, "Whose group are you with?"

Everyone laughed and joked, saying, "We're on your side, so why don't you give us some water?"

"Hahaha, yeah, I'm thirsty too."

Faced with everyone's teasing, Miao Zhaodi couldn't argue and simply turned and left!

He kept muttering and cursing under his breath!

The news quickly spread to the educated youth settlement and other parts of the village!

During Zhou Ye's trip to the provincial capital, a major event occurred in the village!

Huang Ying, who lived in the educated youth settlement, married Song Chengxue, the third son of the Song family!

Huang Ying originally had a good relationship with Zhou Ye, but she was afraid of interfering with Zhou Ye's holiday, so she didn't notify him!

Meanwhile, Huang Ying and Chen Lan were gathering firewood at the foot of the mountain. There was not much farm work to do, so they chatted as they gathered firewood.

The two of them are getting better and better.

Huang Ying also intended to introduce Chen Lan to Song Chengqian, the fourth son of the Song family.

As the two were talking, they overheard someone from the same village saying that Zhou had returned. They immediately exchanged a glance and took off running.

They didn't forget to bring firewood either, so when they arrived at the village chief's house, each of them was carrying a large basket of firewood.

Zhou also heard loud laughter coming from the doorway; it was a familiar voice!

Looking at them in surprise, she said, "Why did you all come here? I just got back and haven't even sat down for long."

Chen Lan said with a grin, "It's Huang Ying again. She ran even faster than me, carrying so much firewood."

How are you? Why did you come back this time? How long are you staying?

No sooner had he finished speaking than Huang Ying pushed him away!

"I haven't even said anything yet, and you've already asked me all the questions I wanted to know."

Zhou also found it somewhat amusing and said, "Okay, okay!"

"Please come in first, don't stand at the door."

Then Huang Ying and Chen Lan dusted themselves off, put the firewood at the door, and followed Zhou Ye into the house.

The three chatted for a while. Zhou saw the happiness on Huang Ying's face and felt very at ease!

He said with a smile, "Wait a minute! I need to get something!"

A moment later, he took out a small cloth bag!

He handed it to Huang Ying: "You should have called me back when you got married! Open it and take a look!"

When Huang Ying opened it, she found a pair of red pillowcases and a pair of pink towels inside!

There was also a bright red wool scarf!

Huang Ying looked at the object in her hand with surprise: "This, this is for me?"

Zhou also smiled and said, "Of course it's for you. It's a wedding gift, of course I have to give you one."

Huang Ying was overjoyed and hugged all the gifts to her chest.

"This is brand new; I've never seen anything like it before."

Although the Song family treated her well and gave her some betrothal gifts, he was unwilling to spend money on these things!

You know, these red pillowcases, pink towels, and bright red scarves... even if you had money and tickets, you might not be able to buy them!

The color is so perfect, so beautiful, and the quality is so good too!

It feels soft and fluffy to the touch.

You can't buy it in the county town!

She touched it all over with great interest, and finally put it in the cloth bag, which she then carried on your back with great fondness.

Chen Lan looked on with envy, and Zhou Ye smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll give it to you when you get married."

Chen Lan happily hugged Zhou Ye's arm and said coquettishly, "Oh, Xiao Ye, you're so wonderful!"

I like you so much!

You are my best friend!

If you ever need anything in the future, just tell me! I'll agree to anything!

I just like you...

That coquettish voice really annoyed Huang Ying!

Huang Ying pushed her friend away, as if they were enemies.

"Hmph! I'm the one who's closest to Xiaoye right now, and I like Xiaoye the most."

The three of them cuddled for a while, and then Huang Ying said, "Why don't you come to my house for dinner tonight?"

Zhou hesitated for a moment, then said, "With so many people in your family, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to have dinner at your house, would it?"

Unexpectedly, Huang Ying patted her chest and said, "It's alright, I'm in charge of the Song family now."

Zhou Ye raised an eyebrow: "You're so capable? You've only just married into the family and you're already making decisions?"

Huang Ying chuckled: "Didn't expect that, did you? I made the decision on the very first day! Hahaha..."

Everyone thinks the Song family has a lot of members!

When I married into the family, there were already two sisters-in-law!

It's definitely not my turn!

I thought there was going to be a big battle!

Haha... You never would have guessed! Not a single person in the Song family wants to be in charge!

Even my mother-in-law doesn't want to do it!

Then, she mysteriously approached Zhou Ye and said, "Do you know what? My mother-in-law handed over the reins of the household to me on the very first night I married into the family. She also gave me all the money in the house, saying that I would be in charge of the Song family from now on."

Do you know what's even more shocking?

Zhou Ye and Chen Lan both shook their heads.

"Why?"

Why?

Huang Ying burst into hearty laughter!

“You never expected that my two sisters-in-law—my eldest sister-in-law and my second sister-in-law—would be like this.”

They don't want to get involved either!

But they had one request.

What are the requirements?

What are the requirements?

The two asked at the same time!

Huang Ying said, "Their demand is—the family cannot split up!"

I was shocked. I stared at them in astonishment. I couldn't believe that the idea of ​​not allowing the family to separate was proposed by my sister-in-law.

Ha ha……

My sister-in-law held my hand and said, "Third sister-in-law, you're in charge of the family! I can rest assured! There's just one thing: you can't divide us up!"

From now on, all the work points we earn will be yours! You'll be in charge of them!

My second sister-in-law was even more amusing. She looked at me pitifully and said, "I'm not separating from the family! I can cook, I can do chores. If we don't separate, I'll listen to you!"

I looked at my mother-in-law, but to my surprise, she had a big smile on her face.

Then you ask me if I agree?

If you agree, then get the housekeeper ready immediately!

Of course I agree!

Ha ha……

My mother-in-law immediately gave me all the money and keys to the house! Haha... I couldn't even refuse!

Zhou Ye had a general idea of ​​what the Song family was like, but he never expected it to be like this!

The mother-in-law didn't want to be in charge, the sisters-in-law didn't want to be in charge, and they actually let the newlywed daughter-in-law take charge.

Moreover, the first demand from the sisters-in-law was that the family not be separated.

In other people's homes, they would be eager to separate the family as soon as possible and manage the household themselves.

Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!

Then Huang Ying generously said, "You can come to my house for dinner. There are people to cook, people to do chores, people to wash dishes, and people to chop wood. We don't need to worry about anything, we can just eat."

Looking at Huang Ying's arrogant demeanor, it felt like a daughter-in-law who had endured for a thousand years had finally become a mother-in-law.

This made Zhou laugh heartily.

What's even more outrageous is the attitude of the Song family when Zhou Ye visited them.

Zhou told Wang Guihua and Xie Yongfu in advance that evening that he would bring several cans of food and candy to visit the Song family.

I ran into Chen Lan on the way; she also brought some vegetables.

When visiting someone's home, no matter how good the relationship is, you should never go empty-handed.

When they arrived at the Song family's residence, they were surprised to find the gate wide open.

Looking at the bright and spacious stone house, Zhou couldn't help but admire it, saying that there is strength in numbers!

Even if my son isn't particularly capable, he's a great worker, making this house so bright and sturdy.

It wasn't destroyed by the floods back then.

"Xiao Ye, Xiao Lan, you're here? Come in quickly!"

Huang Ying's cheerful voice could be heard in the courtyard.

In the past, Huang Ying spoke with a sarcastic tone, finding fault with everyone.

And they're also a bit petty and have a short temper!

But look at Huang Ying's cheerful appearance now. It's clear how well he's living his life.

"Xiaoying, I'm planning to make sweet and sour pork ribs, is that okay?"

As soon as Zhou Ye entered the room, he heard a soft and gentle voice.

Huang Ying introduced with a smile: "This is my sister-in-law, she's so gentle! And she has such a lovely voice!"

As soon as she finished praising her, Sister-in-law Song blushed with embarrassment!

Sister-in-law Song nodded, which was her way of greeting her.

Zhou also said, "Hello, sister-in-law!"

"Why……"

Just as I was about to step forward, my sister-in-law unexpectedly took a few steps back! I was so startled I shuddered...

Huang Ying patted her sister-in-law on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, sister-in-law, this is my best friend, Xiao Ye!"

You know, although he's a bit capable, he's a very good person. And Xiaolan, you've met her a few times too!

Sister-in-law Song nodded...

Huang Ying instructed, "Sister-in-law, do as you say! Don't put in too much sugar, the little one doesn't like it!"

Sister-in-law Song nodded slightly and obediently said, "Okay!"

Then she obediently went into the kitchen.

Then Sister-in-law Song brought out several bowls of tea.

He said, "Xiaoying, we only have some black tea left at home. It's the kind Dad bought before. Can you smell it and see if it's okay?"

Huang Ying glanced at it and said, "Okay, Second Sister-in-law, just put it on the table. Go do your work."

Sister-in-law Song said obediently, "Okay, then I'll go first."

After giving her instructions, Huang Ying arranged for Zhou Ye and Chen Lan to sit at the table in the main room.

"Please don't be shy, there are candies and pastries on the table, please help yourselves."

The tea is quite good, you should all drink it quickly. It was all cooled beforehand and is still warm.

At this moment, Zhao Dalan came out; she was Huang Ying's mother-in-law.

Zhou Ye thought that Huang Ying's instructions and arrangements might make her, as the mother-in-law, slightly dissatisfied, but to her surprise, Zhao Dalan nodded in satisfaction.

Then he said to Zhou Ye, "Xiao Ye, you're back? Come visit us more often when you have time! Ever since Xiao Ying came, our family's life has been getting better and better, and we're becoming more and more organized!"

I no longer need a housekeeper, and the burden on my shoulders has been greatly reduced!

Look at our home, isn't it wonderful!

Our Xiaoying is so capable!

Zhou Ye's eyes widened instantly. Could this really be possible?

Then I saw that Song Lao Da and Song Lao Er were working on the side, and the two brothers nodded without any objection!

Well, one monkey, one way to tie it up!

One family, one rule.

That makes sense!

Once the meal was ready, Huang Ying carried several plates and said, "Mom, sisters-in-law, I'm taking my sisters inside to eat so we can chat!"

You guys eat it yourselves!

Zhao Dalan nodded: "Okay, you guys eat. If you want anything else, just let me know!"

"Okay, Mom!"

Then, the three of them went back to their little house!

Once inside the house, Huang Ying didn't eat. Instead, she pulled Zhou Ye and Chen Lan to the bedside table.

"Haha...hehe..."

"Look...look..."

As he spoke, he took out an account book and a small cloth bag!

"Look, this is all the work points and money for the whole family! It's all mine... Haha... Haha..."

"I, Huang Ying, have finally achieved this! I'm in charge now! Hahaha..."

Zhou Ye looked at the frenzied Huang Ying and said, "You've finally achieved the life you wanted! But the Song family's sons will gradually grow up and get married too!"

The other sisters-in-law might not be so easy to get along with!

Huang Ying chuckled and said, "I know, I'll fully meet their needs! If they want to separate in the future, they can!"

Those who don't want to separate from the family, like the eldest and second sons' families, can live with me!

I, Huang Ying, am too lazy to do housework, but I love having a housekeeper!

I promise I'll assign them tasks properly!

"Besides, isn't this to introduce the fourth son to Chen Lan? The Song family has many sons, and they are all very capable at doing chores!"

But I'm just timid!

The truth is, there's no one in charge! Chen Lan and I are good friends!

"If Chen Lan can marry into the Song family, we'll be companions!"

"If Chen Lan wants to separate from the family, then let's separate and live separately! But... hehe... do you want to separate from the family?"

Chen Lan smirked: "I'm not going to separate the family! You take charge, and I'll slack off! What if we have children in the future, or if we have our own opportunities!"

We'll see!

But if you dare to mistreat me, hmph…

Seeing Chen Lan's threat, Huang Ying hugged her tightly: "Just because you'll have to call me sister-in-law from now on, I'll protect you!"

Let's share the money and the happiness!

Ha ha……"

The two burst into laughter!

Actually, the Song family doesn't have a capable person in charge! Zhao Dalan's eldest daughter is still living at home!

Because Zhao Dalan was afraid that Huang Ying wouldn't like it, she let her eldest daughter live in the same room as her!

Next, Huang Ying is about to do something big! But she hasn't had a chance yet!

Huang Ying was happy to see her best friend off!

Then I heard suppressed sobbing coming from the kitchen!

"Waaaaah...waaaah..."

this……

Huang Ying looked through the window and saw her sister-in-law!

The mother-in-law was currently comforting her husband's older sister!

"What's the use of crying? We need to figure something out! Don't you want your daughter anymore?"

The Li family is humiliating people! Are you just going to let them humiliate you like that?

"Waaah... But, Mom, if I don't go back, they won't feed the children!"

Mom, what should I do?

The three children are still young!

They don't value it at all! What if the child really goes hungry?!

"Waaah..."

Zhao Dalan was also worried!

She...she doesn't dare go to the Li family either!

She couldn't out-argue that old shrew from the Li family!

"Cry...Why are you crying? You're crying away all your good fortune!"

Huang Ying said unhappily at the door!
