Having one more person at home and one more mouth to feed is not a big deal, but strangers always make Jiang Qiuyu uncomfortable.

However, Ma Xiu'e was too familiar, so after they agreed, she didn't just rush into the guest room with sacks and fill the entire room with her things.

Not only that, Ma Xiu'e also volunteered to take care of the children for them.

Although Jiang Qiuyu tried to refuse, Ma Xiu'e couldn't help but boast that she had raised all the children of her neighbors and had plenty of experience in raising children.

Xu Suzhen also relaxed her guard, asked Jiang Qiuyu to prepare dinner, and left the child in the care of Ma Xiu'e.

After all, he is a family relative, how could he really harm Xiaobao?

Jiang Qiuyu was skeptical, and would occasionally peek out while cooking to see what they were doing.

At first, Xu Suzhen and Ma Xiu'e were just chatting about the village's harvest this year. When Xu Suzhen asked Ma Xiu'e what her son was doing, Ma Xiu'e suddenly picked up Xue Jiayu.

"Oh, I see your baby has been lying down for a long time. He needs to get up and move around."

Ma Xiu'e held Xue Jiayu in her arms and walked around the Xue family's living room, then went around every corner. She seemed to be amusing the child, but in fact she was trying to find out where the Xue family's big items were hidden.

She just couldn't believe that the Xue family, as big as it was, didn't have many valuable things.

[Who is this auntie? How rude! ]

Xue Jiayu looked around but couldn't remember such a character, or was it because she had too few roles in the original book so she couldn't remember it?

Before she could figure it out, Ma Xiu'e said to herself, "I looked around and there aren't many valuable things. Only these vases are worth a bit of money."

"But how can I steal this vase? I'm very anxious about Biaozi's debt, and I don't know if I can sell it in time."

"It's all Biaozi's fault. He's in debt and I have to help him find the money even at my age."

Xue Jiayu widened her eyes in surprise. Fortunately, Ma Xiu'e was immersed in her own world and had no time to pay attention to her, nor did she notice the surprised expression on her baby's face.

When Jiang Qiuyu finished cooking and called Ma Xiu'e to eat, Xue Jiayu fluttered to ask Jiang Qiuyu to hold her.

Jiang Qiuyi quickly took her baby daughter over and said, "Xiaobao, are you hungry? Mommy will make some milk powder for you..."

[Mom! I don’t want to drink milk powder. This auntie is so weird! ]

Jiang Qiuyu paused and listened carefully to Xiaobao's words.

[This auntie wants to sell our things to pay back the money. Mom, you must be careful and don’t cook for now. ]

Jiang Qiuyu looked at Ma Xiu'e who was eating with relish and felt mixed emotions.

Xu Suzhen also heard Xue Jiayu's thoughts and clutched the spoon helplessly.

She wanted to say something, but this person nodded and stayed. She had no choice but to swallow her anger and planned to keep an eye on Ma Xiu'e in the next few days and never allow her to steal things from the Xue family.

Ma Xiu'e had just taken two bites when Xue Wangjun came back.

Xue Wangjun was very surprised that there was an extra person in the house for no reason.

"Who is this?"

Before Jiang Qiuyu could explain, Ma Xiu'e wiped her mouth and slapped Xue Wangjun's expensive suit without even wiping it with her hands.

"Third brother! You are back! Auntie has been waiting for you for a long time."

"aunt……?"

Xue Wangjun looked confused. There was probably another aunt in their family that he didn't know.

Xu Suzhen gave a brief explanation and coughed lightly.

"Anyway, your aunt will be staying here for the next few days, so you have to be respectful and polite."

These words were apparently spoken to Xue Wangjun, but were actually spoken to Ma Xiu'e, telling her not to do anything weird.

But Ma Xiu'e seemed not to understand and kept asking Xue Wangjun what big business he was doing when he came back so late.

Since he was a relative from his hometown, Xue Wangjun still gave him face. He smiled and said, "It's not a big business. It's just a small factory that can barely make a living."

"Nonsense! I've heard from the villagers that you can make this much in a year!"

Ma Xiu'e quietly made the sign of "five", and Xue Wangjun quickly changed the subject, "What are we having for dinner tonight? I'm starving."

Jiang Qiuyu handed him a bowl of rice and started chatting with him about other topics, such as today's vegetable prices and whether to enroll Xiaobao in an early childhood education class. No one responded to Ma Xiu'e's question anymore.

Ma Xiu'e felt embarrassed and went upstairs in dejection.

[Well done! Mom and Dad, just ignore her and let her go]

[Her son has a lot of gambling debts, and he's counting on you two's money to pay them off.]

[We won’t be the victim of this]

Jiang Qiuyi and Xue Wangjun looked at each other and decided to listen to Xiaobao.

Their Xiaobao is the smartest one, so it’s always right to listen to him.

However, Xue Wangjun was from the village after all. If he drove Ma Xiu'e back without any evidence, the villagers would definitely call him heartless and ungrateful.

We have to find a way to get rid of Ma Xiu'e decently.

Jiang Qiuyi was silent for a while, then suddenly had an idea and said, "Why don't we go ask Mr. Zhan and Mrs. Zhan for advice. They must know more about the ways of the world than we do."

"Good idea. Let's go there early tomorrow morning!"

The next morning, Jiang Qiuyu left Ying Huanyu and Ma Xiu'e to Xu Suzhen to watch over, and she carried Xue Jiayu straight to the Zhan family.

Xue Jiayu hadn't woken up yet, but when Jiang Qiuyu picked her up, he still hugged Jiang Qiuyu's neck obediently. His soft and cute appearance almost melted Jiang Qiuyu's heart.

She became even more certain that she must drive Ma Xiu'e away, otherwise she would get angry and hurt Xiaobao.

Zhan Aoxiang and his wife were having breakfast at the time. When they saw them coming to visit them so early in the morning, they knew they must want help, so they finished their breakfast in a few bites.

"Qiu Yi, what's the matter that makes you so flustered so early in the morning?" Jiang Peirong took her arm and sat down.

Xue Jiayu looked around like a radar, trying to find Zhan Nanqi.

Seeing this, Jiang Peirong smiled and said, "Nanqi hasn't gotten up yet. Xiaobao, do you miss your brother?"

[Yes! Of course I do! I haven’t seen the handsome boy for a whole day! ]

If she could speak, she would have shouted out loud.

Jiang Qiuyu was completely defeated by her love-crazy daughter and could only be thankful that outsiders could not hear Xiaobao's inner thoughts.

But the important matter was important, so Jiang Qiuyu slowed down and briefly recounted Ma Xiu'e's story.

Finally, she added, "Wang Jun is from the village, and his roots are in the village, so it's not good to be too harsh on this matter. I just want to ask if you have any way to solve it?"

Zhan Aoxiang had been listening quietly, and after listening he patted his chest and assured that there was a way to solve the problem.

Jiang Peirong glanced at her husband and said as if issuing a task: "I'll leave this matter to you. We usually ask others to help take care of Nanqi. You must do this."

"No problem, but where's Lao Xue?"

Jiang Qiuyi said Xue Wangjun was at home, and Jiang Peirong slowly made and poured tea, "Since you are here, sit for a while."

"Oh..." Jiang Qiuyu couldn't help but complain about how bad Li Xiu'e's hygiene habits were, such as not flushing the toilet after using it, picking up and eating food that fell on the table, etc.

Just as they were chatting excitedly, Xue Jiayu suddenly pinched Jiang Qiuyu's hand.
