Chen Lijuan happened to walk over and asked, "Grandpa and Grandma, have you cooked all of this big bag of vegetables?"
The elderly couple from the Chang family were unusually silent. "Child, we don't want you to leave either. This family has a week's worth of food, and you're going to eat it all today!"
We can't afford to raise them, we simply can't afford it!
Chang Lanhua is usually very smart, but she gets confused when she's anxious.
Chang Lanhua pointed at Chen Lijuan: "Last time I saw her she was so fair and clean, how come she's turned into a black charcoal today!"
Grandma Chang mumbled, "It must have been sun-dried!"
Old Man Chang: "..."
You don't even feel guilty saying such things to your daughter, old woman? You've become almost unrecognizable.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. There's still work to do at home. Come back with me!"
Chang Lanhua temporarily ignored the slight unease, waved her hand, and was about to take Chen Lijuan home to resolve the trouble.
Chen Lijuan looked at the Chang family elders for their opinion.
The two elderly people in the Chang family silently looked away, one looking at the sky and the other at the ground, in perfect sync.
Chen Lijuan smiled and agreed, then turned around to get her bag.
Old Man Chang couldn't bear to cheat his daughter, so he reminded her, "This child has a pretty big appetite!"
Chang Lanhua frowned and changed the subject: "How's the work going?"
Granny Chang immediately gave a thumbs up: "Excellent!"
Eating is also top-notch.
Chang Lanhua was very satisfied: "As long as she can do the work, that's fine. My family is just missing someone to do the work. It's not hard to make sure she gets enough to eat. I guarantee she'll have enough to eat every day!"
Chen Lijuan came out with her bundle and overheard this. Her eyes lit up and she immediately pledged her loyalty.
"Auntie, even if you try to kick me out, I won't leave—"
Chang Lanhua chuckled to herself, thinking to herself that young people are just too easily swayed.
I would rather die than kick you out. There's still a ton of work waiting for someone to do at home. I'm just afraid you'll work yourself to death.
As for being full, Chang Lanhua's in-laws have relatives who manage the school cafeteria. If this girl has a big belly and eats a lot, then they'll give her some good food. Even swill can be eaten, and she'll still have plenty.
The two left Shuangdong Hutong arm in arm, affectionately.
The elderly couple watched them disappear into the alleyway, then exchanged a glance and ran home in a flash. One closed the door, and the other locked it, their movements perfectly synchronized.
Old Man Chang said smugly, "Look at you! How could you do this to your own daughter! I reminded Lan Hua, but you didn't say a word. Don't wait until later to complain to me that your daughter isn't close to you!"
"Then I'll go to Lan Hua's house and explain things clearly!"
Granny Chang's expression didn't seem fake, which frightened Old Man Chang so much that he grabbed her clothes and pushed her back.
"Stop messing around—"
He didn't want to embarrass himself in Shuangdong Hutong, where the employer had to go out and do odd jobs to feed the nanny!

Sun Yanxia waited at Ning's house for several days but did not receive any notification from Liu Yujie.
Is Liu Yujie unwilling to pay?
Although living in the Ning family's house was nice, Ning's father was too annoying. Whenever Sun Yanxia wasn't paying attention, he would make Sun Yanxia's manhood do chores.
For example, she couldn't resist washing her own socks, underwear, and other personal items; she would wash her own dishes after meals; and she would help her mother prepare vegetables while cooking.
Her precious son was born into wealth; his grandfather and his ancestors for three generations were all wealthy families.
That day, Sun Yanxia still hadn't received Liu Yujie's message, and she became increasingly agitated.
When she went downstairs, she saw Chang Jizong happily helping with the work. She was furious. Without saying a word, she pulled her son back to the room in front of Ning's parents, packed her luggage, and left the Ning family with her son.
"Who would want to live in this dilapidated house!"
Director Ning almost had a heart attack from those words.
Ning's mother hurriedly went to get the nitroglycerin pills, accidentally injuring her hand in the process.
The Ning family was thrown into chaos by her antics.
Sun Yanxia, carrying her son and luggage, went straight to the Song family.
In front of the Song family, Liu Yujie shouldn't even think about reneging on her debt, unless she didn't want to be the eldest daughter-in-law of the Song family anymore—
The Song family's nanny opened the door and saw Liu's relatives standing behind it. Like their owner, the dog immediately put on the same sour face as Mrs. Song.
"Who should I look for?"
"Liu Yujie!"
Sun Yanxia was already angry and had never been treated like this before. She immediately dropped her pretense and her friendly expression vanished.
Who's making a fuss at the door?
"Madam, they are relatives of the Liu family!"
Madam Song said disdainfully, "Quickly ask her what she's here for, so she can leave right away!"
The Song family's nanny hurriedly nodded, then turned around and immediately dropped her ingratiating smile: "Madam, I'm asking what you've come here for!"
They didn't intend to hide their conversation from anyone, and Sun Yanxia heard everything clearly, feeling extremely humiliated.
The eldest daughter-in-law has reached the limit in her role as Liu Yujie!
"I've come to find Liu Yujie!"
Mrs. Song heard this in the living room, but she insisted on waiting for the nanny standing at the door to repeat it.
Sun Yanxia gritted her teeth. If she had known the Song family was in this situation, she shouldn't have acted impulsively and broken ties with the Ning family. If she couldn't get the money from Liu Yujie today, she would probably have to worry about where to live again.
After a while, Madam Song finally spoke: "Take her upstairs, then call Liu Yujie. I don't want to see anyone from the Liu family for the time being!"
With a cold expression, the Song family's nanny led the person to the small living room next to the bedroom on the second floor.
"You all better sit here and wait, and behave yourselves!"
As the Song family's nanny turned and went downstairs, Sun Yanxia immediately spat at her retreating figure.
After spitting, Sun Yanxia went to the bedroom.
She had to be careful that Liu Yujie might not actually pay in the end, otherwise she would be in big trouble. So she collected some money in advance, the more expensive the better.
She was fearless, since she only touched Liu Yujie's things, while Liu Yujie was hesitant to act rashly and could only suffer in silence.
Haha, it's Liu Yujie's fault for making a slip of the tongue first!
Chang Jizong sat in the living room and saw his mother's furtive behavior, his face turning slightly red.
Grandpa Ning said that one should be upright and honest, and this kind of behavior is not acceptable!
Chang Jizong was so ashamed that he wanted to crawl into a hole, so he hid in the gap between the sofa and the sofa.
When Liu Yujie received a call from her housekeeper, she thought there was a chance for remarriage and rushed home immediately.
In the past few days, she has come to realize that she should never have gotten a divorce in the first place!
As long as she's not divorced, she'll still be the eldest daughter-in-law of the Song family, retaining her status and position!
But in a moment of confusion, she actually got the divorce certificate, and Liu Yujie regretted it to the core.
Back at the Song family home, the nanny pointed to the second floor. Before she could even speak, Liu Yujie had already run upstairs.
The second floor must be where Qingyun called her back.
Qingyun has changed her mind—
Hearing the sudden, rapid approach of footsteps, Sun Yanxia felt guilty and immediately grabbed her belongings and crawled under the bed.
Liu Yujie opened the bedroom door and was stunned to see the empty room. Where was everyone?
"Liu Yujie, who let you come back?"
Song Qingyun had just returned from outside and stood on the stairs, frowning as he looked at Liu Yujie.
Liu Yujie!
She used to be called Yu Jie, but after getting the divorce certificate, she became Liu Yu Jie!
Liu Yujie was extremely unwilling, and she strode over in a fit of rage.
Song Qingyun pressed down on her shoulder and pushed her into the bedroom.
