Chu Aili made a mistake, and as a family member, he would definitely be implicated, so he pleaded for her for his own sake.
But this was someone else's business, and the two of them didn't say much. Besides, Chu Aili deserved it.
The children went to the river and brought back crabs. Ye Zhaozhao planned to make them crab roe noodles, and Bian Zhaoyue helped her prepare the crabs.
Just then, Wan Ning arrived. Upon seeing her, Ye Zhaozhao went to pour her some water.
"Sister Zhao Zhao."
Wan Ning was about to cry, and Bian Zhaoyue stepped forward to comfort her and gave her a glass of water.
Wan Ning then revealed that Lü Baozhu had taken their family's money and even pushed her mother down.
After Zhu Zi rejected Lü Baozhu, Lü Baozhu was very angry, so she waited until her mother was home alone that night.
She came to steal money from the house because she thought Ye Zhaozhao knew medicine and could help her mother get a checkup.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Ye Zhaozhao asked Bian Zhaoyue to help take care of the children, and she went to Wan Ning's house.
As the two of them walked along, many villagers saw them and knew that Wan Ning's mother had been pushed down, so they asked if they needed help.
A group of people arrived at Wan Ning's house and saw the old lady lying in bed. Ye Zhaozhao examined her.
Hearing Ye Zhaozhao say that her mother had just twisted her back and that a few plasters would do the trick, she was overjoyed.
After learning the truth, many villagers began to curse Lü Zhubao.
"That Lü Baozhu is a heartless person. The Zhu family has been so good to her, and not only is she ungrateful, she even dares to steal money."
"I think she's taken the money to find that man in the city again."
Wan Ning was thinking about how to get the money back. After she and her brother started working, they gave their money to their mother every month for her to keep safe.
"Go find the police."
Since Lu Zhubao was no longer considered family, the old lady and Wan Ning naturally wouldn't let it go so easily, and immediately went to the police station.
Ye Zhaozhao went home after seeing that everything was alright. The children had already started eating; it was noodles and crab roe made by Sister Liu.
Not long after they started eating, He Yaoyao arrived with Meng Xi and Meng Hao.
Upon seeing Tuantuan, Meng Xi quickly ran over to him, having missed her grandmother these past few days.
"Brother Tuantuan, I'm back. Did you miss me these past few days?"
Tuan Tuan remained silent, but served her a bowl of noodles with crab roe. With food, Meng Xi no longer cared about asking him anything.
Meng Hao and He Yaoyao also sat down to eat. Seeing how familiar their daughter was, He Yaoyao silently rubbed her forehead.
Soon, she realized the truth: the crab roe noodles were absolutely delicious; no wonder her daughter insisted on coming over.
When He Yaoyao arrived, she brought many things and prepared gifts for Ye Zhaozhao's five children.
She also gave Ye Zhaozhao twenty catties of pork and ten catties of beef. Ye Zhaozhao felt that she had given too much and wanted to refuse, but He Yaoyao beat her to it.
"If you don't accept it, I'll feel bad letting two people come over for a free meal."
Hearing her say that, Ye Zhaozhao had no choice but to accept it. Seeing her like this, the matter should be resolved.
“I have agreed to take care of my sister. I have enrolled her in a school in Kyoto, but I have also cut off ties with my parents.”
"You did the right thing."
The matter should have been resolved at the beginning, otherwise there will be more trouble later.
Seeing that it was almost time, He Yaoyao took Meng Xi and Meng Hao home.
Meng Xi hadn't had enough time with Tuan Tuan yet, and now it was time to go home, which made her very reluctant to leave.
"See you at school tomorrow, Tuantuan-gege. I'll miss you."
"Um."
Having received a response from Tuantuan, Meng Xi was happy to go home with He Yaoyao.
Seeing her daughter so happy, He Yaoyao thought to herself, "They say daughters are not meant to stay at home once they grow up, but my daughter hasn't even grown up yet, so why is she not meant to stay at home?"
The next day, Ye Zhaozhao went to school, and Zhao Xiaojing felt inexplicably nervous as soon as she saw her.
Ye Zhaozhao ignored her and began to teach the class, only allowing everyone to discuss freely during the break.
When a male classmate approached Zhao Xiaojing and chatted and laughed with her, Zhao Xiaojing did not try to avoid him.
After the discussion ended, she pretended to be disappointed, thinking that the time was too short. This attitude was noticed by the male students.
That was a sign that Zhao Xiaojing had feelings for her; the two of them were exchanging glances during class.
After class finally ended, the male classmate wanted to ask Zhao Xiaojing out, but he saw her leave instead.
Zhao Xiaojing knew she had made a good impression, and that was enough.
She knew how to play hard to get. Zhao Xiaojing went shopping by herself, but as soon as she arrived at the school gate, she saw her sister-in-law with the pockmarked face.
Zhao Xiaojing was getting a little impatient. Hadn't they already given her the room?
Why is this person still coming to find her? How annoying! Zhao Xiaojing didn't want to talk to her and turned to leave.
The woman with the pockmarked face had already seen her and was now catching up quickly, while Zhao Xiaojing pretended to have just seen her.
"Sister-in-law, what brings you here? Is there something you need?"
"Xiao Jing, Mom said your husband is coming home for dinner tonight, and she asked me to come and get you."
Why did he go home?
"It's all your fault! You can't just stay at school all the time."
Zhao Xiaojing didn't expect this man to have this trick up his sleeve. Before she could think about it, the pockmarked man pulled her home.
When they saw her return empty-handed, both her mother and sister-in-law looked displeased.
Only the pockmarked woman was happy, because she got the room. Seeing that Zhao Xiaojing no longer called her "Mom," the woman became even angrier.
"You ungrateful wretch! I've raised you for so long, and you don't even call me 'Mom' when you come back."
"mom."
Seeing her like this, the woman got angry and spoke up directly.
