Chapter 564: I'll steal every day from now on!

As soon as Xiao Churan heard that it was her grandmother who stole vegetables from the home vegetable garden, she sighed helplessly and said, "Mom, since it was Grandma who picked them, if she wants to pick them, just let her pick them. 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 still has the nerve to come to our house to steal vegetables; I can't tolerate this!"

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

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 that 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 to steal once, she would come to steal twice, three times, a hundred times.

So Ma Lan hurriedly came out of the room, went to the kitchen door, greeted Ye Chen, and said, "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 Churan, you must be careful about anti-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 it all tomorrow."

Actually, Ye Chen had known everyone in the Xiao family very well during his three-plus years in the Xiao family.

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

In his view, the entire Xiao family, except for his wife Xiao Churan who was a natural good person, only had Xiao Changkun who had room for salvation. As for the others, one counts as one, they were all trash.

This included Ma Lan, as well as Old Mrs. Xiao.

So, he also knew very clearly that if he didn't make a response, Old Mrs. Xiao would indeed be like what Ma Lan said, stealing the first time, 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 the most?"

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

"Okay." Ye Chen nodded. She likes to eat chives, 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 you set up last night?"

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

Wang Zhenggang hurriedly said, "Master Ye, please command."

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 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 are 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, "Okay, Master Ye, I'll go do it right away."

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

So, she asked Qian Hongyan, "The meat I told you to buy, did you buy it back?"

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

Qian Hongyan was very guilty now, so she was also prepared to please the old woman and her husband. Just in time, she sold the coffee machine and had some money in her hands, 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 Hongyan also bought vegetables, she immediately said with dissatisfaction, "Why waste that money to buy vegetables?"

Qian Hongyan asked in surprise, "Mom, we can't just eat meat and not vegetables, we have 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 big vegetable garden, and you can reach them from outside the fence. From now on, our family doesn't need to spend money to buy vegetables anymore."

Qian Hongyan then remembered that when she left this morning, she saw Ye Chen's house was in the middle of a heated construction.

At that time, she saw it, 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 don't say, 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 of theirs 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 it under the faucet, rubbed it, 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 of theirs 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 refreshed all over.

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 Changgan just walked to the kitchen door at this time and smelled the fragrance of the cucumber, blurted out, "Oh my, such a strong cucumber fragrance, give me half to eat."

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

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

"Picked?" Xiao Changgan 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 set up a vegetable plot, all kinds of things, everything is there, and everyone grew extremely well. I just passed by the gate and saw it, so I went home, took a basket, and picked a basket."

Xiao Changgan frowned, "Is this Ye Chen's brain not good? Why is he still growing vegetables in the courtyard?"

"Who cares about him?" Old Mrs. Xiao said happily, "Anyway, we don't need to spend money to buy vegetables in the future. 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 Changgan laughed, "Then this is really not bad! Not only healthy but also saves money!"

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

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

Xiao Hailong usually didn't like to eat 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 Hailong hurriedly asked, "Grandma, if Ye Chen finds out we stole his family's vegetables, won't he come to find trouble with us?"

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

Xiao Changgan said with a smile, "Mom, you still have a way!" ===== CHAPTER 565 =====
