Chapter 106 Zhao Xiulan is looking for trouble
Ever since Ye Rou and Jiang Chen had a fight, Jiang Chen disappeared from the village.
Ye Rou continued her life, working at the clinic during the day and going back to teach Zhou Nian how to sew clothes and Aunt Zhou how to cook at night.
Life is quite fulfilling.
An unexpected person came to the clinic this morning.
The original biased grandma Zhao Xiulan walked in with a swagger. She was much thinner than the last time Ye Rou saw her, and her face looked like dried orange peel.
The first thing she said when she saw Ye Rou was to complain: "You moved out from Jiang Chen's place, why don't you go home?"
Ye Rou didn't respond to her words and asked coldly, "What disease?"
"I'm not here to see a doctor." Zhao Xiulan sat down opposite Ye Rou and asked directly, "What's going on between you and Jiang Chen?"
Zhang Lan was pregnant and Ye Rou left again. There was no one to do the housework, so she was busy all day long. She only relaxed for two days after her daughter came back. When she heard from the villagers that Ye Rou and Jiang Chen had broken up and Ye Rou had moved to Zhou's house, she immediately couldn't sit still and came to find her.
Ye Rou was not her original self. She had no feelings for this family and was in no mood to chat with her. She said coldly, "If you are not sick, get out."
"You're so brave! You actually dare to chase me away!" Zhao Xiulan refused to leave and shouted loudly with the power of an elder.
After Ye Rou's five senses were enhanced, her hearing became particularly sharp. Zhao Xiulan's sudden shout made her eardrums hurt.
She covered her ears in a daze and didn't speak for a while.
Zhao Xiulan was very proud and continued, "I heard that Wang Po is helping you find a blind date?"
Ye Rou rubbed her tortured ears and ignored her.
Zhao Xiulan insisted, "Don't let Mrs. Wang meddle in your affairs. You still have to listen to me about your marriage. The day before yesterday, I found a young man for you in Qianjia Village. He's good-looking and has a wealthy family."
Ye Rou looked at her with a half-smile, waiting to hear what shameless words she would say next.
Zhao Xiulan felt a little guilty and looked away before saying, "We have already accepted the betrothal money from that family. We raised you to this age, so this should be considered as a little compensation to the family."
"Then I would like to congratulate Ye Wen in advance on his happy marriage." Ye Rou smiled sincerely.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhao Xiulan said unhappily, "It's you who's going to get married."
Ye Rou smiled slightly: "It's not me, it's Ye Wen."
Zhao Xiulan thought she hadn't understood yet, so she reiterated, "It's you. The young man is interested in you."
"If I say it's Ye Wen, it can only be Ye Wen." Ye Rou took off her gloves, looked into Zhao Xiulan's eyes, and said in a very cold voice: "If you don't return the betrothal money, then I promise you that the person who marries her will definitely be Ye Wen."
Zhao Xiulan was frightened by her. After a moment's silence, she began to curse, "You little bastard, you've grown wings and dared not listen to me, right? Go ask around in the surrounding villages. You're living with a man without being married. Your reputation has been ruined long ago. I went to such great lengths to find you a young man like this!"
She kept talking and yelling, and in the end she really felt that she had worked hard and made great contributions. The more she spoke, the more wronged she felt, and her last sentence even had a tearful tone.
The aunt who was waiting to see the doctor was moved by Zhao Xiulan and also advised: "Ye Rou, your grandma has had a hard time too. You can't be too selfish."
Ye Rou smiled slightly and said, "Aunt, you are right. I am just too selfish."
Seeing Ye Rou's attitude soften, the aunt wanted to persuade her again, but then she heard Ye Rou say, "Aunt, you are selfless. Just marry your daughter to him."
The aunt said blankly: "I don't have a daughter."
Ye Rou smiled and said, "It's okay. Auntie, you can marry me off."
Zhao Xiulan immediately said, "You little girl, you have such a vicious tongue. Why are you saying such harsh words?"
"Because I'm selfish." Ye Rou blinked her fox eyes and said it as a matter of course.
The aunt wanted to say something more, but Ye Rou suddenly turned cold and said to her, "It's none of your business."
My aunt widened her eyes in disbelief: "What did you say?"
Ye Rou said sarcastically, "Auntie, eat less salt. You're so idle."
My aunt was so choked by these words that her face looked extremely ugly. She muttered something like "good intentions don't get rewarded" and walked away with heavy steps.
Zhao Xiulan, without help, thought for a moment and said, "If you don't want to get married, forget it. I heard that you get eight work points a day in this clinic."
Ye Rou saw through her thoughts and said directly: "Not only do I get work points, I also charge consultation fees. Why do you want it?"
Zhao Xiulan's eyes lit up immediately. "What's the use of a little girl like you asking for so much money? I'll just give the work points to the Ye family. I only want half of your consultation fee."
Ye Rou sneered, "I treat you as a human being, but you really don't speak human language."
Zhao Xiulan's face burned at the criticism, but Zhang Lan was about to give birth, and Ye Wen and Ye Yaozu were both unemployed, so the family was really struggling to make ends meet. So she was shameless and said directly, "Give me the money, and I'll let you go home and live."
"Is the Ye family a nest of gold or silver? I have to pay money to live there again." Ye Rou was speechless.
Zhao Xiulan said coldly, "This is all for your own good. If you don't go back home and live in the Zhou family, your reputation will be even worse if it gets out. Don't you want to get married?"
She changed the subject and said, "Besides, I'm holding it for you, and I'll return it to you when you really get married."
Ye Rou heard Zhao Xiulan's shameless remarks and looked at her coldly.
Zhao Xiulan felt uncomfortable being looked at by her, and said, "You can't write two Ye families with one stroke of the pen. Even if we are not related by blood, your last name is Ye. How can I lie to you? This is all for your own good."
Ye Rou lowered her head and looked around for something.
Zhao Xiulan was bewildered: "What are you looking for?"
Ye Rou picked up a wooden stick from the corner of the wall: "If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave."
For people like Zhao Xiulan, if you can't win the argument or talk them through, the most direct way is to threaten them with force.
"You still want to hit me?" Zhao Xiulan's pupils trembled.
Ye Rou smiled slightly: "I won't hit you, I'll hit Ye Yaozu. If you say a few words, I'll knock out a few of Ye Yaozu's teeth."
She stood still, leaning on the stick, and said coldly, "Go ahead and talk. No one is stopping you."
Ye Rou would really do it. After all, the news that she had broken Jiang Yu's leg bones and cut off Scar Man's testicles had spread throughout the village.
Zhao Xiulan shut up completely and left in a hurry. Her hair was gray and she walked tremblingly, looking quite pitiful.
Ye Rou's mood did not fluctuate at all when she saw this scene.
It would be best for Zhao Xiulan to cancel the engagement. If not, she could only wish Ye Wen good luck.
What's funny is that Zhao Xiulan's shameless words didn't even reach the malicious detection level of mind reading. She felt from the bottom of her heart that everything she did was for Ye Rou's good. It was quite rare for a person to be so shameless.

"Brother Jiang, Li Si and Li Kangping already know about the gold."
After Meng Guan finished speaking, Brother Jiang didn't say anything. He raised his head and glanced at Brother Jiang secretly, only to see that Brother Jiang was distracted while holding the radio parts.
He was surprised when he first saw this scene, but after seeing it so many times these days, he has become accustomed to it.
Normally he would leave quietly, but he had something to say, so he had to speak up to wake up Brother Jiang.
Jiang Chen came back to his senses: "Anything else?"
Meng Guan said in a deep voice, "I know what Yu Chengping's handle is."
"Tell me about it." Jiang Chen became interested.
