"Yes, that's what I think too, but if I had a choice, I would rather not have to go through such suffering and force my precious daughter to grow up."
“She used to be spoiled rotten by both our families and never lifted a finger. I want my only daughter to be a little princess, not a career woman.”
“Niannian couldn’t possibly endure this kind of suffering; that’s not her personality…”
Jin Xiangyu spoke with bitterness in her heart.
A lot of things must have happened to force Ye Nian'an to grow up and become the person she is today.
Jin Xiangyu dared not think about what could have happened to force someone to seem like they had a different soul. Every time she asked, Ye Nian'an said that nothing was wrong.
Beneath a seemingly understated exterior may lie turbulent undercurrents.
"At least for now she's under our noses. She'll grow up and protect us, and we'll protect her too. That's a blessing in disguise."
It's much better to keep it under your own control than to leave it to someone you know nothing about, even if you're far away.
Moreover, the Zhang family treated Ye Nian'an very badly.
They looked down on her and despised her status.
Chi Xinyao was filled with rage at the thought that this family had almost stolen her precious wife.
Jin Xiangyu held Chi Xinyao's hand tightly and nodded: "Mm."
At least for now, we're all together; we're not separated.
That's better than anything else!
at the same time.
Su Mingyue was rummaging through all sorts of things in the Chu family home.
On one hand, you have to be careful to explore, and on the other hand, you have to be afraid of being discovered. You also have to put the things you found back in their original places and dare not make too much noise.
Otherwise, it will easily attract the attention of other people.
As time passed, Su Mingyue's forehead was covered in sweat, soaking her entire body.
Every second of delay increases the risk of being discovered.
Moreover, no one knows when the Chu family will return...
If she were caught red-handed here, Su Mingyue would have no way to clear her name no matter how much she talked.
"No... still no..."
"Where did they hide them?"
The Chu family's house wasn't that big, and Su Mingyue searched everywhere she could, except for lifting up the floorboards.
They just couldn't find any trace of that thousand-year-old ginseng.
With such a large ginseng root, Ye Nian'an didn't have many places to hide it.
Could it be that they didn't hide inside the house, but instead hid in a secluded place outside?
Should I stay here any longer?
Just as Su Mingyue was frantically searching, there was a sudden commotion outside.
She thought it was the Chu family returning, and her heart nearly stopped in fright. She quickly hid.
What should I do? If the Chu family really manages to sneak into the house, I won't be able to escape no matter what.
However, the person who came in was not a member of the Chu family, but Jiang Nuan.
After falling out with Leng Zhaodi, Jiang Nuan thought that she would not only be unable to embezzle her money, but also her tickets and melon seeds.
He was even more amazed at how well Leng Zhaodi was getting along with the Chu family, living a life of luxury and comfort.
She was so envious! So jealous!
But now she has no chance to get closer to the Chu family...
If you take the wrong first step, you'll make a series of mistakes.
As she pondered this, Jiang Nuan found herself walking near the Chu family's residence.
She was already starting to regret it.
I was the one who first showed goodwill to the Chu family and made a good impression on them.
If I hadn't viewed the Chu family with prejudice, I would be the one enjoying delicious dumplings with them today, the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Leng Zhaodi is nowhere near her turn!
Suddenly, Jiang Nuan heard some noises coming from inside the Chu family's house.
As Leng Zhaodi just mentioned, the Chu family has left the educated youth settlement.
The specific destination was not mentioned.
It's just impossible for him to come back so soon.
But why would I hear such a noise?
At that moment, Jiang Nuan's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be...?
Did they break in while the Chu family was away?
After all, the Chu family's food was famously good among the educated youth settlement, and Chu Yan even grabbed a brand-new Phoenix brand bicycle.
With their military merits, the two men earned more work points. Not to be outdone, Chi Xinyao and Chu Xin'er joined forces with Ye Nian'an, a barefoot doctor who was also skilled at hunting.
It's not surprising that someone living such a good life would be targeted by thieves.
After all, most people are still living frugally, so if they can steal some meat from the Chu family and eat it, it's a treat.
However, the Chu family was known for their domineering nature. They dragged out themselves, the Wang family, and Su Mingyue, and gave them a severe lesson, which instilled fear in others and made them afraid to provoke them.
Even so, there are still thieves who dare to break into the Chu family's house to steal things.
At this moment, Jiang Nuan had a change of heart.
Isn't this my chance to shine?
If Ye Nian'an can catch the thief who ran into the Chu family, she will thank him.
All past grudges were wiped clean because of this incident.
If I put in more effort to please the Chu family, I can be like Leng Zhaodi, eating with them and living a good life.
Thump thump.
Jiang Nuan knew that her thoughts were dangerous.
But it's worth trying!
So, on a whim, Jiang Nuan mustered up her courage and went into the Chu family's house.
Following the sound I had just heard, I groped my way around.
It seems to be in the inner room...
Su Mingyue heard footsteps getting closer and closer, and her breath almost stopped from coming in.
I instinctively grabbed something nearby.
Judging from the footsteps, it seems like there's only one person.
As the person drew closer and closer, until he leaned into the room...
Su Mingyue closed her eyes tightly and suddenly threw the thing in her hand.
Bang.
With a muffled thud, Jiang Nuan collapsed to the ground before she could even utter a sound.
At that moment, Su Mingyue's mind went blank.
Instinctively, he dropped the weapon on the ground and fled at top speed.
Su Mingyue only stopped after running a very, very long distance away from the educated youth settlement.
Clutching his chest, panting heavily, his entire body soaked in sweat, he sat down leaning against a large tree...
"I……"
"Did I just kill someone?"
"Who was killed? Ye Nian'an? Or..."
