Jiang Chuyue, who was already trying to add fuel to the fire, would never miss such a good opportunity. Noticing He Hua's evasive look, she smiled and deliberately raised her voice to pretend to be surprised, "Could it be that grandma doesn't know yet?"

Seeing He Hua's eyes that looked as if she wanted to tear her apart, she helped explain before He Hua could speak, "Second Aunt may have wanted to give you a surprise, grandma, so she didn't tell you right away. Grandma, please don't take it to heart."

These words seemed to be explaining for He Hua, but Liu Cui's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Mom, this bitch deliberately lied to you. I went to the river to wash clothes yesterday, where can I go to buy meat?" He Hua didn't care about the funny looks from everyone at this time. The most important thing now was not to let Liu Cui really misunderstand her.

"Aunt He didn't go to the river to wash clothes yesterday. She clearly went east." Such a sentence floated out from the crowd, directly exposing He Hua's lie.

To the east of the village entrance is the road to the town.

Liu Cui glared at He Hua with hatred, "How dare you lie to me, you bastard! I'll have to ask Lao Er to teach you a lesson."

After saying that, Liu Cui didn't care why she came here today, she turned around and left. He Hua was so frightened by this sudden change that her face turned pale, and she hurriedly chased after Liu Cui.

Seeing that He Hua and Liu Cui, who were looking for trouble, had left, there was nothing exciting to watch. In addition, with Wu Gang standing at the door of the Xiao family like a door god, which made people feel scared, people soon dispersed.

Aunt Zhang, who had been holding Erniu in the next yard, finally spoke up, "Sister Jiang."

Jiang Chuyue looked over after hearing the voice, and smiled at Aunt Zhang who was hesitant to speak. "Aunt Zhang, I have something I want to discuss with you. Is it convenient for you now?"

"It's convenient, of course it is convenient." Although she didn't know what Jiang Chuyue wanted to talk to them about, but because of the pork head last night, Aunt Zhang quickly agreed.

Jiang Chuyue's smile deepened. She asked Aunt Zhang and Wu Gang to sit down in the yard, and she was not in a hurry to explain what she was looking for them for.

He turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out a few bowls of porridge. Several large bowls full of minced meat porridge were placed in front of Aunt Zhang and Wu Gang.

"Aunt Zhang, please eat quickly!" Jiang Chuyue brought another bowl of medicine and handed it to Xiao Yihao very naturally. Xiao Yihao drank it all in one gulp without even frowning.

Then he took the chopsticks handed to him by Jiang Chuyue and started eating breakfast in silence.

Aunt Zhang and Wu Gang looked at each other, and neither of them was in a hurry to pick up the bowl in front of them.

"Sister Jiang, what's the matter with you calling us over?"

Jiang Chuyue noticed that Erniu was staring at the minced meat in the bowl and swallowed his saliva. She also knew that if she didn't explain clearly, Aunt Zhang and Wu Gang would probably not pick up their chopsticks.

He simply told her what he had figured out last night, "Aunt Zhang, we have moved here for quite some time. I think you know that our family has not had a peaceful life during this period of time."

Jiang Chuyue sighed, "My husband's leg hasn't healed yet, and we have two children at home. I have to go up the mountain to dig herbs every day to make money, so I don't have the time or energy to take care of them all the time. Yesterday I saw that Brother Wu was quite skilled, so I wanted to ask Brother Wu to help take care of the family."

"It's a small matter. He has nothing to do at home anyway, so just let him look after your family." How could Aunt Zhang not understand Jiang Chuyue's meaning?

First, He Hua came to steal things late at night, and then last night, because of the suckling pork, so many people took the risk to steal meat. Why are they so arrogant?

It was only because he saw that Xiao Yihao was half disabled, Jiang Chuyue was a weak woman, and they had two half-grown children who were as skinny as monkeys that he dared to be so arrogant.

But she only knew one part of it, but didn't know Jiang Chuyue's real plan.

"Aunt Zhang, you may have misunderstood what I meant. I want to ask Brother Wu to be a bodyguard to protect the people and things at home." Jiang Chuyue looked at Aunt Zhang who was a little shocked, and spoke before she could open her mouth.

"Also, I have to go up the mountain to collect herbs every day, and I don't have time to cook for the two children, so I would like to ask Aunt Zhang to help me cook every day."

Jiang Chuyue had this idea only yesterday, but after what happened last night, she was sure that Wu Gang was indeed a capable man, and more importantly, he was not a coward, so she made up her mind.

"It's just that we don't have much money now, so we can only provide you with some food. In the future, our two families will eat together. Please don't be disgusted, aunt."

Jiang Chuyue's words directly blocked Aunt Zhang's words. She knew very well that Aunt Zhang would definitely not ask for money, and would even be embarrassed to ask for the food they provided, so she said this so that Aunt Zhang could not refuse.

Nowadays, epidemics and famines are rampant, and it is already very difficult to have something to eat. Even if you earn a little money, you can't afford the food whose price is rising every day.

But when she met Jiang Chuyue's sincere eyes, Aunt Zhang couldn't say the words she wanted to refuse. She just felt a knot in her throat. "Sister Jiang, since you trust us, my husband and I will definitely help you take care of your family."

Jiang Chuyue breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Aunt Zhang's words.

She did this business not because she was soft-hearted, but because her family really needed someone who could protect the family, and Wu Gang was the best choice.

And Aunt Zhang can indeed help take care of Xiao Yihao and the two children when she is not at home. In this way, both sides get what they need.

It's just three more mouths to feed, which is not a difficult task for Jiang Chuyue who has a system.

After arranging everything, Jiang Chuyue realized that she seemed to have never asked Xiao Yihao's opinion on this matter from beginning to end. She saw Aunt Zhang off and turned back to the yard.

Jiang Chuyue coughed lightly, but Xiao Yihao didn't even raise his head, as if he didn't notice Jiang Chuyue's movement at all.

Jiang Chuyue was a little annoyed after being completely ignored. "I didn't have time to discuss this with you because of the urgency of the matter. If you have any dissatisfaction or opinions, you can raise them."

She is not a authoritarian person. More importantly, Jiang Chuyue is very clear about her final outcome based on the plot. When she thought of Xiao Yihao's methods, Jiang Chuyue couldn't help but shudder.

"I have no objection." Xiao Yihao finally looked up and glanced at Jiang Chuyue. After his eyes stayed on her face for a while, he controlled the wheelchair and turned back to the room.

Jiang Chuyue was left alone, still wondering whether Xiao Yihao really had no opinion or was just being sarcastic.
