Chapter 520: Still in Shock



Jiang Yue was surprised when she heard this, "Sister-in-law has officially started selling roasted sweet potatoes?"

Mrs. Zhao was a little embarrassed. "Yes, I saw the sweet potato oven you ordered for me was ready when I went to the blacksmith a few days ago. I wanted to try it out when I got it back. I accidentally baked too much, so I went to the county town for a walk. It was cold these days, so it was really good to sell. It was all sold out in less than two hours!"

Jiang Yue smiled and praised, "Very good!"

Sister Zhao wanted to hold Jiang Yue's hand, but she realized that her hands were covered in black dust, so she hurriedly said, "You two sit down first, I'll go wash my hands!"

After coming back from washing her hands, Mrs. Zhao saw that Zhao Yuanqi was still wearing new clothes and immediately pulled them off. Zhao Yuanqi was unwilling and held on to the clothes and refused to take them off.

"This is what your aunt gave you to wear for the New Year. If you dirty it, you won't have anything to wear for the New Year!"

After hearing what his mother said, Zhao Yuanqi took off his clothes, grabbed the candy on the table and ran away.

"You naughty monkey, come back here and put on your clothes!" Mrs. Zhao was so angry that she wanted to chase him, but then she remembered that Jiang Yue and Gu Ye were still there, so she stuffed Zhao Yuanqi's clothes to Zhao Cui and said, "Go, catch that naughty monkey!"

Turning around, Mrs. Zhao asked Zhao Jianguo to pour tea.

"No, sister-in-law, I just had dinner, I don't want to drink!" Jiang Yue looked at Zhao's sister-in-law busying around and asked, "Brother Zhao didn't come back today?"

Mrs. Zhao immediately curled her lips and said, "Don't mention that person. He's been having a tiff and has been living in the office for the past few days!"

Gu Ye raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "What's wrong with Lao Zhao?"

Mrs. Zhao hesitated for a moment, and asked Zhao Jianguo and Zhao Jianjun to go to the room, then she said: "He thinks it's shameful for me to sell roasted sweet potatoes, and he quarreled with me at home and didn't allow me to go out, saying that he is a regimental-level cadre after all, and it's shameful for him to have his wife show up in public to sell roasted sweet potatoes!"

Jiang Yue and Gu Ye looked at each other. This was a family affair between Captain Zhao and Sister Zhao. They were outsiders and it was not appropriate for them to comment at this time.

Gu Ye said: "I'll come and persuade Lao Zhao!"

Jiang Yue said to Zhao's sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, please talk to Brother Zhao. Times have changed. There is nothing shameful about doing business. We all make money honestly with our own hands, right?"

Sister Zhao likes chatting with Jiang Yue. Every time Jiang Yue speaks, it soothes her heart and makes her feel comfortable.

"But sister-in-law, you still have to be careful recently. I heard someone say today that it's the end of the year and the joint defense team will crack down on speculative activities in order to achieve good results!" Jiang Yue reminded.

It's a good thing that Sister Zhao runs her business with her own hands, but Jiang Yue doesn't want her to be caught by the joint defense team because of this. Captain Zhao was originally against it. If Sister Zhao was really caught and locked up by the joint defense team, then their family would probably be in great trouble.

Jiang Yue decided to take some time to go to the joint defense team to say hello. By then, even if Mrs. Zhao encountered the joint defense team while setting up a stall, the people in the joint defense team would turn a blind eye and let it go.

"Sister-in-law, I have something to ask you." Gu Ye was about to ask Sister-in-law Zhao how to treat morning sickness and loss of appetite when he heard a wailing sound coming from outside.

It was Zhao Yuanqi who was caught by Zhao Cui, but Zhao Yuanqi refused to go home. Somehow he twisted himself and became as slippery as a fish. Zhao Cui was not paying attention and he ran away again.

"You naughty monkey, get back here!" Seeing this, Mrs. Zhao rushed out immediately.

Jiang Yue and Gu Ye both stood up. Sister Zhao was anxious to catch Zhao Yuanqi, but Gu Ye had just asked her a question, so she turned around and asked, "Gu Ye, what do you want to ask?"

Seeing that Mrs. Zhao was sweating profusely due to anxiety, Gu Ye asked her about morning sickness at this time, but he was afraid that Mrs. Zhao would not be in the mood to answer.

"Sister-in-law, let's go tonight..." Before Gu Ye could finish his sentence, he saw Zhao Yuanqi, who was being chased by Zhao Cui, suddenly rushing towards Jiang Yue who was standing at the door.

Zhao Yuanqi has a chubby build and is as strong as a calf. Not to mention how much impact he could cause when he charged in, his father was often knocked off balance by him. Jiang Yue is pregnant, and still in the early stages of pregnancy. If she were to be knocked by Zhao Yuanqi, it would be hard to say whether she would still be pregnant.

Jiang Yue was so scared that her face turned pale, and she subconsciously wanted to hide, but there was a door behind her.

Fortunately, Gu Ye reacted quickly and immediately stood in front of Jiang Yue, blocking her with his body.

Zhao Yuanqi bumped his head against Gu Ye's legs. Gu Ye didn't move at all. Zhao Yuanqi covered his head and cried out, "Uncle Gu, are your legs made of iron pillars?"

Mrs. Zhao and Zhao Cui grabbed Zhao Yuanqi from the left and right and spanked him on the buttocks. "You naughty monkey, I told you to run! As a punishment, you are not allowed to eat candy today!"

"Sister-in-law, you train the kid first, we'll come over in the evening!" Jiang Yue had just been frightened, so she took Gu Ye's arm and quickly walked a few steps to avoid Zhao Yuanqi who was being beaten.

"Oh, okay!"

Jiang Yue and Gu Ye walked to the door of their house, still in shock. Gu Ye was even more nervous than her, "Are you okay just now?"

Jiang Yue shook her head. "Fortunately, you reacted quickly, otherwise you would have been hit by Zhao Yuanqi and died unjustly!"

Gu Ye held Jiang Yue's hand, and when he thought of the eight more months of fear he had to endure, he regretted bringing Jiang Yue back. If Jiang Yue stayed in Beijing and was taken care of by her parents, it would definitely be much safer than in this chaotic family compound.

But Gu Ye would definitely not say this out loud. He was afraid that Jiang Yue would get angry after hearing this and think that he was being irresponsible and wanted to be a hands-off boss.

"You should be more careful in daily life and avoid those kids who run around recklessly!" Gu Ye was thinking about how to ensure Jiang Yue's safety.

"Ningning, don't go after school this afternoon. I'll get someone to pick you up!"

"good!"

After Gu Ye went to the group, Jiang Yue took a nap. She was not woken up until Gu Ye brought Ningning back.

"Why have you slept until now? You won't be able to sleep at night like this!" Gu Ye touched Jiang Yue's forehead and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his body temperature was normal.
