Chapter 361: Complaining and Cheating
Ye Rou put down the phone, turned around to meet Jiang Chen's gaze, and smiled slyly.
Jiang Chen's eyes seemed to be smiling, "Have you finished filing the complaint?"
"Hmm." Ye Rou nodded frankly.
Question: How would you respond when faced with a colleague who wants to make things difficult for you?
A: Be patient and wait for the other party to make the first move.
B: Take the initiative and tell her to get out!
Ye Rou decisively chose the second option. She first complained to Liang Yushan and asked Ji Gefei to get out.
Jiang Chen extended his hand towards her, "Come here."
Ye Rou walked over, held his hand, snuggled into his arms, and found a comfortable position to lie in.
Jiang Chen thought she was well behaved, so he kissed her between the eyebrows with a smile and said slowly, "Aren't you afraid of driving Ji Yan crazy?"
"I was afraid she wouldn't get angry." Ye Rou bent his fingers and answered casually.
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
He pinched Ye Rou's chin, lifted her little face, and forced her to look at him, "Little sweetheart, you are hiding something from me."
Jiang Chen understands Ye Rou.
She is actually a bit Buddhist in nature, or to put it more bluntly, she is lazy.
She is too lazy to hold grudges or scheme, and all troubles cannot stay with her.
It is very wrong for a person with such a temper to suddenly start forcing someone.
Ye Rou had never thought of hiding it from Jiang Chen, but since the matter had not made any progress before, telling him about it would only cause another person trouble.
But now it's different.
According to Ye Rou's understanding, Ji Yan pretended to be indifferent, but in fact she had a domineering personality and would never allow anyone to get past her.
Now that they are forced into a corner, the measures they take will only become more violent.
Tell Jiang Chen so that he can be mentally prepared.
"I targeted her because I knew some of the things that happened to my mother."
Ye Rou briefly recounted how Ji Yan had plotted against Zheng Lili, accusing her of adultery and driving her out of the military compound, leading to her being abducted by human traffickers while pregnant and sold to Dahe Village.
Jiang Chen listened in silence, "What do you want to do?"
Ye Rou: "I want to know two things. First, what role did Tian Zihui, Liang Yushan's mother, play in this? Second, I want to know how Zheng Lili was targeted and abducted by human traffickers. Was it a coincidence or was it premeditated?"
Jiang Chen indulges Ye Rou without any bottom line and has only one request for Ye Rou.
"Promise me you won't get hurt."
Ye Rou patted her chest and assured, "Don't worry, this is a literary fight, I won't get hurt."
She raised her face and spoke with an extremely confident tone.
Jiang Chen was attracted by her cute appearance and leaned over to kiss her.
Ye Rou noticed his actions and her cheeks flushed slightly, but she did not hide. She put her arms around Jiang Chen's neck, implying her consent, which made Jiang Chen chuckle and kiss her without hesitation.
The moment their lips touched, Ye Rou's ears moved slightly, as if she heard something.
"Meow!"
"Meow!"
It's a kitten!
Jiang Chen was about to attack the city, but was suddenly pushed away. The rejection made him look a little helpless, "What's wrong?"
"The kitten is calling me." Ye Rou ran away in a hurry.
“…”
Jiang Chen's face darkened as he thought to himself that it was right not to have children.
A cat can distract his wife, let alone a crying and screaming child.
——
Xiheyuan is peaceful and tranquil in the early morning.
"Hey, hey."
In the garden, Liu Yutang rolled up his trouser legs, wielded a hoe, and was loosening the soil.
Occasionally, he would dig up stones, pick them up and throw them into the bamboo basket at the end of the medicinal field.
He was concentrating on his work when he suddenly heard a loud noise in the inner courtyard.
Little Huihui's howling was getting closer and closer.
Liu Yutang looked up and saw Xiao Huihui running in front with something in his mouth, and Xiao Rou chasing after him with the hem of her dress in her hand.
Ye Rou caught sight of her master and hurriedly greeted him, "Master, good morning."
"Good morning—" Before Liu Yutang could finish a word, he had already disappeared.
He shook his head helplessly, "Young people are really energetic."
Ye Rou didn't want to be so energetic either.
Grandpa Zhou hadn't finished making the kitten's bed yet, so Ye Rou sewed a small cushion and placed it in a small bamboo basket to serve as the kitten's bed.
She got up early in the morning, washed up and went downstairs, just in time to run into Xiao Huihui, who sneaked in. Under Ye Rou's gaze, he grabbed the bamboo basket and ran away with lightning speed.
The more Ye Rou called it, the faster it ran.
After a while, he ran out of the garden.
Ye Rou chased all the way.
Zheng Zhiyuan and Wang Guoping, who were practicing Tai Chi, stopped and watched with a smile.
Tang Panxia, who was hanging clothes, told Ye Rou to run slowly and be careful on the road.
Finally, Ye Rou caught Xiao Huihui at the kitchen door. She looked up and through the wide-open window of the kitchen, saw Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Song stealing food in the kitchen.
Zhou Yuqing and Song Zhishu were in a panic, looking for a place to hide the chicken legs.
Ye Rou: "...Don't hide it, I've already seen it."
She held down the little gray cat that was about to run away and snatched it back into her arms.
Zhou Yuqing and Song Zhishu came out dejected.
Ye Rou glanced at the oil on the two old men's mouths and her mouth twitched.
But this time she couldn't let it go so easily. In this week alone, Ye Rou had already caught him cheating three times.
And only three days have passed this week.
It's too much if he doesn't change despite repeated warnings.
Ye Rou pulled the wolf with her left hand and held the cat with her right hand. She said with a stern face, "I've told you so many times, you have a bad stomach and can't eat spicy and greasy food."
Zhou Yuqing argued, "It's not our fault. It's the Mute Woman who made such delicious food."
Song Zhishu also echoed, "Even though you know we're greedy, Xiaorou, you still always write delicious recipes for Mute Po and ask her to cook them."
The two big pots were firmly thrown on Ye Rou and the mute woman.
"My delicious cooking is not a reason for you to cheat on me." Ye Rou refused to take the blame.
The old man and the old woman looked downcast and listened to the lecture with their heads down.
Ye Rou: "Will you still steal food in the future?"
"I won't eat it secretly."
The answers were in unison, but very reluctant.
Ye Rou was worried. "Since this is the third time I've caught you two cheating, and you promised me twice before that you wouldn't cheat again, but you broke your promise by cheating for the third time, please write me two letters of guarantee."
Zhou Yuqing & Song Zhishu: "Letter of Guarantee?!"
Ye Rou nodded, not giving them a chance to bargain.
"Either you write a letter of guarantee, or you can have the stomach-nourishing soup that my master makes. It's your choice."
Zhou Yuqing and Song Zhishu exchanged a glance and said without hesitation, "Let's write a letter of guarantee."
"I promise I'll write it down. If I catch you guys eating it again, I'll post it on the kitchen wall."
As Ye Rou was speaking, the mute woman came in from outside and gestured: Liang Yushan brought Ji Yan with him and wants to see you.
