Chapter 50 Stealing a Chicken, a Little Bastard No One Wants
Song Hongmei nodded in satisfaction at Chu Yue's answer.
Although she is not often in the compound, her sisters-in-law like to tell her everything that happens. No matter if there is a quarrel or a conflict in the compound, nothing can escape her eyes.
What happened between Chu Yue and Zheng Yue'e before, no matter how big or small, still reached Song Hongmei's ears.
Song Hongmei knows a lot of things, but due to her status, there are some things she cannot deal with personally. Otherwise, small things will become big things, which will easily make the atmosphere in the compound tense and everyone will feel insecure.
The best way is for everyone to take a step back and live in harmony in one compound.
This is probably what Chu Yue did before.
Song Hongmei was originally worried that Chu Yue, a young girl, would be too delicate and arrogant to endure such hardship. However, she did not expect that not only was she broad-minded and not concerned, but she was also able to go up the mountain and establish herself so quickly, which was beyond her expectation.
"Chu Yue, everyone in our compound comes from all over the world. Since we live together, we are a family. It is inevitable that there will be some conflicts among family members, but no one has bad intentions. If you encounter any injustice, just tell me and I will help you get justice."
"Sister Song, I have nothing to complain about. But a few days ago when I came down the mountain, I met a strange person, and I wanted to ask you about him."
Chu Yue took over Song Hongmei's words and stated the purpose of her special visit today.
Song Hongmei took off her reading glasses and looked at Chu Yue, her tone filled with the worry of an elder, "Who? Did you meet a bad guy?"
Chu Yue shook her head. "He's not a bad guy. I just ran into a young man driving a black car with a child. He said his last name was Pei. Sister Song, you know I'm from the countryside. This was my first time running into someone driving a car, so I took a few extra glances. He's not someone special, is he?"
Chu Yue has a tender face, big watery eyes, and speaks innocently. There is nothing out of place in her words, and instead, she is as kind as her own daughter.
When Song Hongmei heard the words "car" and "surname Pei", she guessed the young man's identity and Chu Yue's worries.
She explained, "You are meeting the Pei family. Don't be afraid. The Pei family is a red capitalist..."
Song Hongmei spoke eloquently and briefly described the close relationship between the Pei family and the country's changes under the tide of the times over the past century.
During the turbulent times, the Pei family donated money and materials to support the troops fighting on the front line. They used the textile factory to make military uniforms, shoes and blankets, and used the machinery factory to secretly manufacture weapons and ammunition. The head of the Pei family, who is now the old man of the Pei family, also purchased medical supplies from abroad and secretly sent them to the troops, saving the lives of many soldiers.
After the country stabilized, the Pei family took the initiative to hand over their property, devoted themselves to the development of the national economy, and provided a large number of jobs.
Today, the Pei family’s industries include not only cotton mills and machinery factories, but also steel mills and department stores.
Over the years, the Pei family has maintained a good relationship with the military district troops and has continued to donate money and materials.
Song Hongmei said, "The old man of the Pei family is old now, and the head of the Pei family is his granddaughter, Miss Pei. The young man you met should be Miss Pei's younger brother. His name seems to be..."
"Pei Hanchuan." Chu Yue took the initiative to speak from the side.
Song Hongmei nodded, "Yes, it's Pei Hanchuan, that's the name."
After listening to what Song Hongmei said, Chu Yue had a very detailed understanding of Pei Hanchuan's family background. Moreover, what she heard from Song Hongmei was much more credible than what she had inquired around, and it was also more powerful than she had originally thought.
With such political awareness, the Pei family will continue to prosper in the next hundred years, not to mention a hundred years. They are a giant dragon that will never collapse.
It is even more unexpected that the person in charge of the Pei family is actually a young lady. The old man of the Pei family has an extraordinary mind.
No wonder the child Pei Hanchuan brought that day called him "Uncle", but his surname was also Pei.
Chu Yue had a plan to make money, and it would be best if she could borrow the help of the Pei family.
Seeing Chu Yue lost in thought, Song Hongmei wanted to ask her more about how she met Pei Hanchuan and whether she had encountered any problems. When she was about to speak, Chu Yue's expression suddenly changed and she stood up from the chair.
The little girl who was gentle and obedient the previous second, had a sharp gleam in her eyes the next second.
"Sister Song, something happened at home, so I'm leaving now. You can keep these pine nuts and eat them slowly."
Chu Yue didn't wait for Song Hongmei to speak. She turned around quickly and left in big strides, unable to hide her anxiety.
All this happened just because she heard the noise coming from the next yard, which was the house, mixed with some of Lu Yuanbao's anxious shouts.
"This is my property! It's not yours! You are not allowed to steal it!"
In the yard, Lu Yuanbao held a pheasant tightly in his hands, staring at Li Jinhua who rushed into the yard.
The story goes back three minutes ago.
Lu Yuanbao was cracking pine nuts in the house, the sound of the small hammer clicking, immersed in the fragrant smell, when suddenly there was a sound outside the house, it was the call of wild pheasants in the yard.
"Chuck, chuck, chuck."
The pheasants crowed quickly and urgently.
When Lu Yuanbao came out, he saw Li Jinhua catching pheasants in the yard.
Li Jinhua initially wanted to catch the chicken without anyone noticing. She had raised chickens in the countryside for so many years, and she was always sure of catching one. But for some reason, the chickens in Chu Yue's family were very alert, and they started clucking as soon as she approached.
Li Jinhua was afraid that the chicken's crow would attract the attention of people around her, so she involuntarily quickened her movements, wishing she could catch it.
But when she tried to catch the chicken, it ran away; when the chicken ran away, she chased it; when she chased it, the chicken ran even faster.
There were the urgent crowing sounds of chickens in the yard. Lu Yuanbao walked out and saw Li Jinhua and the pheasant circling in the yard. Li Jinhua had a ferocious look on her face and was about to catch the chicken.
If this isn’t stealing, then what is?
Lu Yuanbao naturally would not allow anything in his house to be stolen. When Li Jinhua was about to catch the pheasant, he rushed forward and pushed Li Jinhua.
"You are not allowed to steal my chicken!"
This chicken was caught by Chu Yue from the mountain. It belongs to their family!
Before Chu Yue left, she reminded him to take good care of the house!
The pheasant seemed to know what was going on and stopped running. Instead, it circled around Lu Yuanbao. Lu Yuanbao picked up the pheasant and held it tightly in his arms.
Li Jinhua was pushed and finally stood up from the ground. Not only did she not catch the chicken, but her hands were covered with chicken shit. She was so angry that she stared at Lu Yuanbao with her cloudy eyes, wishing she could slap such a young child twice.
Li Jinhua's words were full of sarcasm. "You little bastard, you're an unwanted child! How dare you push me? I think you don't want to live anymore! Don't think we don't know that you're just adopted. Do you really think you're Captain Lu's son?"
