Sweet Wife in My Arms

Chapter 567: Doing Something Right

The housework agency once again sent a servant on the second day. The servant was quite young this time around. Like Xiao Hong, she was a young girl. The girl looked brute but she seemed simple and honest. Even though she did not speak much, she certainly was no slouch. Of course, most importantly, the girl had quite some strength and she could handle the work of a man.

Of course, Ye Shuyun was never a mean person to begin with. So, she was very kind to the girl. She only realized that hiring Mei Zhi was a mistake. Her constant grumpy face as if someone had owed her a ton of money caused her to not even have a peaceful meal.

Then she remembered that Mei Zhi had greeted all of the past eight generations of Lu family’s ancestors and regretted it. How could she choose such a person in the first place?

Anyway, since she had been driven away, at least she did not have to see her face ever again. When she had this thought, she felt so much more at ease. However, when she was at Madam Lei’s house and saw Little Lei’s return, she met Mei Zhi once again.

“Why are you still here?”

When Ye Shuyun saw Mei Zhi, her whole mood turned bad. If she was uneducated, she would have jumped and shouted at Mei Zhi.

Madam Lu’s words were funny to her. “Why can’t I be here?” Mei Zhi sneered. The expression she made was irritating.

“Get out of my house at once,” Ye Shuyun said while pointing at the door. The more she looked at Mei Zhi’s face, the more irritated she got.

“Get out? Why should I?” Mei Zhi asked Ye Shuyun, “Me staying or leaving is not a choice made by you, Madam Lu.”

“She’s right, this is not a decision that you get to make.” A voice joined in the tense conversation out of nowhere as Qin Xiaoyue came walking in. She was wearing vibrant colors although she was nearly 50 years old. No matter who others looked at it, she was dressed like a goblin.

“You are only in charge of the East Courtyard. When did you get the right to make decisions in my West Courtyard? Mei Zhi is my servant. Whether she stays or leaves, it’s not a decision that you can make.”

When Ye Shuyun heard Qin Xiaoyue mentioning the West Courtyard, she felt uncomfortable as if something was stuck in her heart.

She looked at Qin Xiaoyue and then Mei Zhi who was rolling her dead fish-like eyes. Angered, she took a deep breath, clenched her teeth and stormed back to her house. She had no mood whatsoever right at that moment.

She had seen shameless people, but she had never seen shameless people at this calibur. This was her first.

She only knew how shameless Qin Xiaoyue could really be at that moment. Shameless, she was really shameless.

The house was clearly Ye Shuyun’s property. The old man had divided the house by himself and they each had their own courtyard. The real estate license was still within her grasp. The renovation fee was also paid out from their own pockets every year.

Did Qin Xiaoyue really thought that Ye Shuyun separated the house from the middle and divided it into the East Courtyard and the West Courtyard to give it to her?

Qin Xiaoyue was even speaking to her with that attitude and tone. Was that really the attitude of someone who was borrowing another person’s roof? She did not even have the basic courtesy and understanding of a normal guest.

When Lu Jin returned, he saw Ye Shuyun pulling a gloomy face with Little Bean in her lap.

“What’s wrong? Who offended you again this time?”

Lu Jin would sometimes think that Ye Shuyun’s menopause period has gone on for too long. She would get irritated suddenly even if she was in a good mood a minute ago. Didn’t things get better these past couple days? What happened this time?

He should be looking for a place to hide. He did not forget that Ye Shuyun almost went on a hacking spree with a kitchen knife in her hands the last time her menopause kicked in.

There is really nothing that can be done when there’s a tigress in the family.

Ye Shuyun placed Little Bean down and allowed it to play by itself. She then started complaining about what happened that day.

“What do you think, is her conscience eaten by a dog? She even had the nerve to mention about the East and West Courtyard. Does she really think that our belongings belong to her as well? Regardless of the East or West Courtyard, the real estate license clearly has our names on it.”

Lu Jin let out a faint sigh. This issue again.

And as for Qin Xiaoyue, he was still unsure about what to say to her. She had to start a fight and make Ye Shuyun angry. Maybe, just maybe, there might be a day when Ye Shuyun could not hold it in anymore and kick them out of the house. Would they be satisfied then?

“Forget it.” He walked over, sat down, and patted Ye Shuyun’s shoulder.

“Lu Qin and his mother are not easy to get by since they only have each other. We should just give them the West Courtyard. If anything had to occur, the real estate license is still in your grasp. They have the interest to live in it but they have no right to sell it off. ”

Ye Shuyun resisted the urge to roll her eyes.

In her opinion, some people have no shame at all. She had long regarded that courtyard as her own belonging. Even if there was no real estate license, they would still treat it as their own.

However, what Lu Jin said was right. She was not worried about it anymore now that she was out of her sight. Regardless of how badly Qin Xiaoyue wanted the house, she could only stay in it. They could not initiate any sale or purchase of the house.

She would like to see for herself what kind of tricks Qin Xiaoyue will pull out from her sleeves.

Ever since she joined the Lu family, she had been nothing but a nuisance. She was unlucky to have a woman like her as a beggar. It was fortunate that she listened to Yan Huan’s idea to separate the house into East and West Courtyard or she would need to see Qin Xiaoyue and her servants’ faces everyday. That would be mind boggling to her.

“Aren’t you going to see Little Lei?” Lu Jin shifted the topic in attempting to derive Ye Shuyun’s thoughts about them before her menopause kicked in again.

“I just came back,” Ye Shuyun’s mood improved once she heard Little Lei’s name. “Let me tell you something. The more Little Lei grew up, the more he looks like his mother Qingyi...”

A few days passed, Qin Xiaoyue invited Old Master Lu and Lu Jin’s family to her house. She said that Lu Qin had a new girlfriend who was in the talk of marriage and they should meet up to get to know each other.

“Lu Qin’s girlfriend?” Yan Huan had been in a good mood ever since she kicked Mei Zhi out.

“Yes, that is what Qin Xiaoyue said.” Lu Yi took hold of Yan Huan’s shoulder, keeping her in her seat.

“Who are you guessing?”

Yan Huan was curious. She wondered who Lu Qin found in this life to become his stepping stone.

“I hope we are not guessing the same person.” Lu Yi did not want to mention the name of that person because she was the fuse that led to all the things that happened in their previous lives. She was also the beginning of Yan Huan’s misfortune. The Lu family have to distance themselves from the three words if they wanted to continue to live in peace.

“Su Muran,” Yan Huan murmured to herself.

“Su Muran,” Lu Yi voiced at the same time.

Yan Huan thought that her guess was not really off the chart. Those two hooked up around this time in their previous life, they were partners in crime. Now, no matter what the truth was, the only thing Lu Yi and Yan Huan could do was to wait for them to initiate their next big move.
