Chapter 124 Greedy Leaves



The last time she beat this guy, she didn't beat him lightly. When she has time next time, she will go to the county town, put him in a sack and beat him up. A few more beatings will make him remember.

"I guess Second Chen still doesn't know that you've severed ties with First Chen, much less that you've been adopted by Grandpa Chen. He still thinks you're still Chen Ye, the starving, uncaring daughter of the first house."

Judging from Chen Laoer's personality, he probably thought the beating he received last time was just a nightmare, and it's possible that he forgot about it the moment he turned around. Such a person is like someone pretending to be asleep, he only believes what he thinks.

"Very likely. What's Old Man Wang trying to achieve by being so proactive?"

Ershuang said meaningfully, "I heard that the boss directly under Old Man Wang's son is retiring."

Chen Ye understood immediately that this was because he was not confident in competing for this position and started to take shortcuts.

"From what you said, Old Man Wang hasn't hooked up with Zhang Fu yet?"

"No, but he was dancing quite happily. I don't know if it will work out yet. Anyway, he hadn't caught up with it when we came here."

Old Man Wang is not a good person, but he doesn't have any great abilities either. He has never had any contact with people like Zhang Fu before, so it would take some effort for him to get in touch with Zhang Fu's family.

Chen Ye's thoughts were much simpler and more crude. It didn't matter whether she could hook up with him or not. Anyone who dared to take advantage of her must be nipped in the bud.

"Don't worry, I'm going with you this time, so we can solve it together. I don't want that idiot to go back to the village and make things difficult for himself."

It would be best if he was beaten so hard that he would never come back to the village in his life.

Chen Lao Er has never been a danger to Chen Ye. He is just like the lice on his head. The feeling of being unable to get rid of them is particularly disgusting.

Knowing that Ye Zi had made up his mind, he didn't say anything. If things didn't work out, he and his brother were still there. He couldn't say anything else, but it wouldn't be a problem to deal with Chen Lao Er and Lao Wang's family.

"Gurgle, gurgle" Chen Ye's stomach rumbled. Only then did she remember that after getting up in the morning to finish work, she came back and started admiring the tricycle. She completely forgot about eating.

Da Shuang and Er Shuang both looked at Chen Ye's stomach: "Are you hungry?"

Chen Ye didn't think there was anything embarrassing about this. His stomach protested because he hadn't eaten. Isn't this a normal physiological reaction?

"Ah, nowadays I go out to work before daybreak and eat when I come back. When I come back, I think about the tricycle and forget about eating."

Ershuang patted Chen Ye's head and said, "You're really good. Wait, I'll make you something delicious. It's almost noon, let's just have lunch together."

Dashuang gave the net bag in his hand to Ershuang. Inside was the cooked food he brought for Ye Zi, including steamed buns, roast chicken, and some rare spices.

The net bag floated past Chen Ye's eyes, and the unique aroma of roast chicken reached Chen Ye's nose. She sniffed hard, and her saliva began to secrete unconsciously.

"Well, let's just have rice for lunch, without any grains mixed in, okay?" She wanted to eat such a delicious roast chicken with plain rice.

"Okay, of course. We brought 20 kilograms of rice, enough for you to eat." The two brothers couldn't just bring nothing and eat leaves, but they both brought rations.

"The vegetables in the backyard are ready to eat. Take a look and see what you need. There's also meat in the cellar. Do you want some?" Chen Ye wished he could eat ten or eight dishes in one meal, especially if someone was better at cooking than him.

"Okay, don't worry about the rest. I'll take care of it. If I make a little more, you can send some to your little grandfather and Shuanzhu." The two brothers still had to stay at Grandpa Chen's house at night, so they had to show their appreciation.

Although Ye Zi is still young, she is still a girl after all. It's okay for two big guys to visit her during the day, but if they really live in the same yard with Ye Zi, who knows what those gossipers will say about her.

Ershuang was really not polite to Ye Zi. Not only did he go to the vegetable garden to pick a lot of vegetables, he also went to the cellar to take a look at what was there. When he saw the empty cellar, he became worried.

This vegetable cellar is old-fashioned and spacious, but there's nothing in it. How long can that little food last? This time, when Ye Zi goes there, she'll see if she can get more food back.

There are a lot of things related to leaves, but most of them are hidden in the lower level of the secret room.

There are only a few things stored outside, which is also to prevent someone from going into her cellar without permission. Seeing so many things can easily make people become concerned.

Ershuang carried the things to the kitchen in the front yard. Dashuang looked at Ershuang and Ershuang shook his head. He went to the cellar on purpose to see how much food Ye Zi had left. He was afraid that the girl would not say anything if she had nothing to eat.

Dashuang sighed, knowing that this girl kept everything to herself, so he decided to bring back more food for Ye Zi when he got back.

"Have you almost finished cleaning up your house?"

Chen Ye glanced at the yard and said, "It's almost done. When autumn comes, we can just build a firewood shed in the front yard." She planned to store more firewood by then to avoid going up the mountain to collect firewood in winter.

"When the time comes, Ershuang and I will come over to help you get firewood. You have to store enough for the whole winter." They were fine in the county and the city. At least they could burn coal in addition to firewood in winter. But in the countryside, they could only rely on firewood for heating.

"Oh! No need. We're so close to the mountain. When I have nothing to do, I can just go up there and pick up some firewood. It won't take long before I have enough for the winter."

In fact, she was thinking that after the autumn harvest, when there would be nothing to do, she would go up the mountain and burn some charcoal herself, which was much more resistant to burning than wood.

But she had never tried to cook it herself, so she didn't know if it would work. She didn't feel comfortable saying it out loud now, as it would be so embarrassing if it didn't work.

Da Shuang nodded but didn't say whether he would come to help or not. He was thinking about whether he could get some coal for Ye Zi to burn.

When Ershuang finished cooking and turned around, he saw Chen Ye sitting at the kitchen door, staring at the pot motionlessly, just like the poor puppy.

Ershuang was also convinced. He knew that Ye Zi liked to eat delicious food, but he didn't expect her to be so greedy.

But it's normal. Nowadays, every family has simple food. Who wouldn't be greedy when seeing delicious food? But this expression on Ye Zi's face is somewhat incongruous.

I remember when I first met Ye Zi, how old was she? Eight, I think? She was so small she never smiled. She had a serious expression all day long, not to mention any other expressions.

At that time, he thought that Ye Zi had a facial disease. He even discussed with his brother whether he should take Ye Zi to a big hospital in the city. However, his brother lectured him, saying that Ye Zi was calm.

No, he just didn't understand. Why would a kid who was less than ten years old need to be calm?
