Chapter 564: I'll Steal Every Day from Now On!

As soon as Xiao Xiao Churan heard that it was her grandmother who had stolen vegetables from their home garden, she sighed helplessly and said, "Mom, since Grandma picked them, if she wants to pick them, just let her. It's nothing more than some vegetables."

Ma Lan blurted out, "That's not how you say it. What has your grandmother ever given us? Have you forgotten how she treated our family before? And now she has the nerve to come to our house to steal vegetables? I can't tolerate this!"

Xiao Xiao Churan shook her head helplessly, "Don't think so much about it. Grandma just saw that our vegetables were too good, so she wanted to pick some to eat. Let's not be so petty."

Ma Lan said resentfully, "You only know how to turn your elbow outward all day long."

After finishing, she turned and went upstairs.

However, the more Ma Lan thought about it, the more she felt this matter was a huge loss. Such good vegetables, not even a leaf should be let Old Mrs. Xiao take away! Her daughter actually felt it didn't matter! If she indulged the old woman once, she would come to steal twice, three times, a hundred times.

So Ma Lan hurriedly came out of her room, went to the kitchen door, and called out to Ye Chen, saying, "Ye Chen, come here, I have something to tell you."

Ye Chen nodded and came to the door.

Ma Lan hurriedly whispered, "Ye Chen, Mom is kindly reminding you. You prepared such a good vegetable garden for Xiao Churan, you must be careful about theft. I've lived with the old woman for so many years; I know exactly what kind of person she is. If you don't manage her, she'll steal everything you have tomorrow."

Actually, Ye Chen had been in the Xiao family for more than three years and understood everyone in the Xiao family very well.

He knew very clearly what kind of personality each person in the Xiao family had.

In his view, the entire Xiao family, apart from his wife Xiao Xiao Churan who was a naturally good person, only Xiao Xiao Changkun had room for salvation. As for the others, one by one, they were all trash.

This included Ma Lan and Old Mrs. Xiao.

Therefore, he also knew very clearly that if he didn't respond, Old Mrs. Xiao would indeed do as Ma Lan said: steal once, and there would be a second time.

So, he had a plan in his heart.

Afterwards, Ye Chen asked Ma Lan, "Do you know what vegetable the old woman likes to eat most?"

Ma Lan thought for a moment and said, "If you're talking about what she likes most, it should be chives! The old woman never cooks in her life, but if you're talking about dumplings with chives and egg filling, she will definitely cook the filling herself. What she likes most is chives!"

"Good." Ye Chen nodded. She likes chives, huh? That's perfect.

Afterwards, he walked to a place where no one was around and called Wang Zhenggang.

As soon as the call connected, Wang Zhenggang asked him, "Master Ye, is your wife satisfied with the vegetable garden set up last night?"

"Quite satisfied." Ye Chen said, "I'm calling you to help me with another thing."

Wang Zhenggang hurriedly said, "Master Ye, please give your orders."

Ye Chen said, "Go find me dozens of pots of the best daffodils, and they must be the kind that haven't bloomed yet, with emerald green leaves."

Wang Zhenggang thought for a moment and said, "Master Ye, these daffodils are poisonous. If you only want a few, it's probably easy to talk about, but if you want so many, I'm afraid it's not safe."

Ye Chen smiled slightly, "I know they're poisonous, but you don't need to worry. Just prepare them for me and send them over before the afternoon."

As soon as Wang Zhenggang heard this, he immediately agreed, "Alright, Master Ye, I'll go handle it right away."

Old Mrs. Xiao stole a basket of vegetables from Ye Chen's house. After returning, Qian Qian Hongyan happened to arrive as well.

So, she asked Qian Qian Hongyan, "Did you buy the meat I told you to buy?"

Qian Qian Hongyan nodded, "Not only did I buy meat, but I also bought quite a few vegetables."

Qian Qian Hongyan was very guilty now, so she was also prepared to please the old woman and her husband. She happened to have sold the coffee machine and had some money in her hand, so she specifically bought some pork ribs and pork belly, preparing to come back and cook a sumptuous meat dish for the family.

As soon as Old Mrs. Xiao heard that Qian Qian Hongyan had also bought vegetables, she said dissatisfiedly, "Why waste that money buying vegetables?"

Qian Qian Hongyan asked in surprise, "Mom, we can't just eat meat and not vegetables, right? We need to supplement vitamins."

Old Mrs. Xiao took her to the kitchen, pointed to the basket of vegetables she had just stolen, and said, "See? These high-quality vegetables were all stolen from Ye Chen's house. Ye Chen's house has a large vegetable garden, and you can pick them as soon as you reach out outside the fence. From now on, our family doesn't need to spend money to buy vegetables anymore."

Qian Qian Hongyan then remembered that when she left in the morning, she saw Ye Chen's house under hot construction.

At that time, she saw it, and although she was a bit surprised, she didn't take it to heart.

She looked carefully at Old Mrs. Xiao's basket of vegetables and couldn't help but sigh, "Mom, you really can't say otherwise; these vegetables look very good, even better than the organic vegetables I bought."

Old Mrs. Xiao nodded and picked up an emerald green cucumber, "Look at how this cucumber grew, big and long. Look at the little yellow flower at the front; it's incredibly fresh, and it's also very clean, like it was just washed!"

As she spoke, Old Mrs. Xiao took the cucumber, washed and rubbed it under the faucet, and then broke it with a little force. The cucumber made a crisp "crack" sound and broke neatly.

A rich, fresh fragrance instantly hit her nose. Old Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but sigh, "Why does this cucumber smell so fragrant!"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but put it in her mouth and took a crunchy bite.

This bite made Old Mrs. Xiao feel incredibly comfortable.

Old Mrs. Xiao chewed the cucumber in her mouth and said vaguely, "This is really the best cucumber I've ever eaten in my life!"

Xiao Xiao Changqian happened to walk to the kitchen door at this time and smelled the fragrance of the cucumber, blurting out, "Oh my, what a strong cucumber fragrance. Give me half to eat."

The old woman handed him half. After Xiao Xiao Changqian took it and took a bite, he immediately gave Qian Qian Hongyan a thumbs up, "Wife, where did you buy this cucumber? It's really delicious!"

Qian Qian Hongyan hurriedly said, "This wasn't bought by me; this was stolen by Mom, oh no, picked by Mom."

"Picked?" Xiao Xiao Changqian looked at the old woman in surprise and asked, "Mom, where did you pick the cucumber?"

Old Mrs. Xiao said with a smile, "Ye Chen's house has a vegetable patch, all kinds of things, and every one of them grew extremely well. I just passed by the gate and saw it, so I went home, took a basket, and went over to pick a basket."

Xiao Xiao Changqian frowned, "Is Ye Chen's brain not working? Why is he growing vegetables in the yard?"

"Who cares about him?" Old Mrs. Xiao said happily, "Anyway, we don't need to spend money to buy vegetables from now on. We'll go to Ye Chen's house to steal every day. We can pick the best and freshest vegetables as soon as we go out!"

Xiao Xiao Changqian said happily, "Then this is really not bad! Not only is it healthy, but it also saves money!"

For this lunch, Qian Qian Hongyan used the vegetables the old woman stole from Ye Chen's house to make several delicious dishes.

It was also because these vegetables were really too good that the entire Xiao family ate them with endless praise.

Xiao Xiao Hailong usually didn't like eating vegetables, but today he took the initiative to eat a lot.

Because today's vegetables were really too delicious!

Seeing that the dishes on the table were all eaten up, Old Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but sigh, "I really didn't expect that the vegetables Ye Chen's house grew were all so good. Like this, when it's afternoon, I'll go to their house to pick some more back."

Xiao Xiao Hailong hurriedly asked, "Grandma, if Ye Chen finds out we're stealing vegetables from his house, won't he come to cause us trouble?"

Old Mrs. Xiao snorted coldly, "Let him come to cause me trouble. As long as he dares to touch me, I'll blackmail him!"

Xiao Xiao Changqian said with a smile, "Mom, you really have a way!" ===== CHAPTER 565 =====
