Chapter 593: Devil Ma Lan!
Watching Ma Lan walk into the courtyard leaning on a crutch, carrying a massive shoulder bag that was bulging at the seams,
Ye Chen felt that his mother-in-law definitely hadn't been up to any good again.
Xiao Churan looked at her and asked in surprise, "Mom, where did you run off to so early in the morning? I haven't seen you all day."
Ma Lan laughed and said, "I went to the wholesale market and bought a few things!"
Xiao Churan chided, "Mom, your leg isn't healed yet and you're using a crutch, why are you running around?"
"It's fine, it's fine." Ma Lan waved her hand, saying dismissively, "Don't look at me as if using a crutch is inconvenient; I'm already very used to it now. Besides, my leg doesn't hurt; the crutch just makes me a bit tired, it's nothing."
Xiao Churan asked again, "Mom, what did you buy in such a big bag? Aren't you tired? Let me carry it for you!"
Ma Lan smiled, "Not tired, not tired at all. It's all hats inside, not heavy."
"Hats?" Xiao Churan was even more puzzled, "Mom, why did you buy so many hats? This bulging bag must have over a dozen in it, right?"
Ma Lan gave a wicked smile and unzipped the backpack.
Xiao Churan and Ye Chen both leaned in to look, only to discover that the backpack was filled with a vibrant, emerald green color.
Ma Lan reached in and pulled out several hats of various styles; without exception, every single one of them was a genuine green.
Xiao Churan asked, dumbfounded, "Mom... why did you buy so many green hats... who would wear this kind of hat..."
Ma Lan laughed, "I bought 20 green hats of all different styles, not to wear, but to hang on the balcony!"
"You saw the video of your grandmother's family at the hospital, didn't you? That damned Xiao Changgan actually got a green hat from Qian Hongyan. Such a hilarious thing, how could I let him off?"
"It just so happens that their house can see my bedroom terrace. In a while, I'll hang all these hats on the side of the terrace facing their house. I'll make that Xiao Changgan look at these twenty green hats every single day, it'll kill him with pleasure!"
Xiao Churan said, torn between laughter and tears, "Mom, why do you have to be so difficult with Uncle? He's already miserable enough as it is."
"Miserable my foot!" Ma Lan said angrily, "You don't know how arrogant he used to be, and how poorly he treated our family. Now that I've finally caught him in a scandal, I'm going to mock him to death!"
Ye Chen shook his head helplessly.
If nothing else, Ma Lan's ability to torment people was truly rare in this world.
Xiao Changgan was already miserable enough; if he could see 20 green hats hanging on the neighbor's terrace every day, his mood would surely be extremely painful.
This kind of method for tormenting people was probably something only Ma Lan could come up with.
Xiao Churan felt this wasn't appropriate and wanted to persuade Ma Lan, but Ma Lan didn't listen to her at all and went straight into the villa with her crutch.
After returning to her room, the first thing Ma Lan did was walk onto the terrace and hang all 20 green hats of various styles, one after another, on the side facing the Xiao family villa.
The 20 green hats fluttered in the wind; the sight was truly a unique kind of refreshing.
Ever since he came out of the hospital, Xiao Changgan had been living separately from Qian Hongyan.
The reason for the separation, of course, was that he no longer had any feelings for Qian Hongyan in his heart.
Moreover, from the bottom of his heart, he felt that this woman, Qian Hongyan, was too dirty.
If it weren't for Wu Donghai's requirement, he would have divorced Qian Hongyan long ago; even without going through the divorce procedures, he would have kicked her out of the house.
But now that Wu Donghai had already stepped up for Qian Hongyan, Xiao Changgan naturally didn't dare to defy his wishes.
But since they couldn't divorce, living separately was always an option, right?
So he drove Qian Hongyan to a bedroom on the first floor.
Qian Hongyan didn't care about this; although she was a bit angry at Xiao Changgan's heartlessness, deep down, she still felt some guilt.
After all, she had given him such a big green hat, and the child in her belly hadn't been aborted at the hospital yet; he must be very annoyed whenever he saw her.
At this very moment, Xiao Changgan had just opened his eyes.
Ever since he came out of the hospital, his body had been suffering from some aftereffects, mainly manifesting as weakness and drowsiness.
He hadn't really slept enough yet, but in his sleep, he always felt an intense itching in his crotch, so he woke up while scratching.
That itching sensation was very strange; at first, it was just itchy, then he couldn't control it, and scratching it once made it especially itchy. If he scratched it hard a couple more times, it became extremely itchy.
So he scratched himself until the itch reached its peak.
He couldn't help but wonder, what was going on with him?
He had always been quite attentive to personal hygiene; logically speaking, there shouldn't be any source of infection!
While he was lost in thought, he jumped out of bed.
Feeling a wave of dizziness, he walked onto the terrace while scratching, wanting to breathe some fresh air.
That was the good thing about living in a villa; privacy was well-protected, neighbors were relatively far away, and there were no high-rises, so even if he walked onto the terrace wearing only his underwear, he didn't have to worry about being seen by others.
He arrived on the terrace and stretched, then felt that unbearable, strange itching sensation intensify even more.
He scratched hard a few times but saw no improvement, which made him feel agitated. Just as he was planning to go to the bathroom to take a closer look at what was going on, he turned around and caught a glimpse of a pile of green things fluttering in the wind on the edge of Ye Chen's terrace opposite.
So he hurriedly focused his eyes, and at this sight, he was almost angered to death.
Although it was a bit far, he could clearly see that the 20 or so things fluttering in the wind on Ye Chen's terrace were green hats of different styles and shapes!
20 green hats, what the hell is the meaning of this?!
And they were facing his own direction; wasn't this clearly meant for him to see?
Wasn't this clearly mocking him for being given a green hat by Qian Hongyan?
Damn it, this is absolutely outrageous!
Xiao Changgan was gasping for air in anger, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails were almost digging into his flesh.
He didn't need to think to know that the person capable of such a devilish act must be Ma Lan; there couldn't be a second person.
In this instant, he really wanted to grab Ma Lan by the hair and slap her ugly face dozens of times!
Thinking of this, he immediately turned back into the room, put on his pants and jacket, and rushed out of the building.
Old Mrs. Xiao was sitting on a grand armchair in the courtyard, basking in the sun.
While basking in the sun, she was sighing at the wealthy life of living in Tang Chen Yi Pin.
Except for the family living next door who were quite annoying, everything else was perfect to the extreme.
This made the old lady feel very comfortable inside.
Seeing that it was almost time to cook, the old lady even wanted to go steal some vegetables from Ye Chen's garden.
But after thinking about it carefully, that whole family of Ye Chen's was rotten to the core; it was better not to eat their vegetables, otherwise, who knew what tricks they might have used, maybe even pesticides.
Last time, using daffodils to impersonate chives and sending the whole family to the hospital—the taste of the five of them having diarrhea in the house and finally being taken away by an ambulance was truly unforgettable.
Just as she was feeling comfortable, she saw her eldest son, Xiao Changgan, walking out in a huff and hurriedly asked him, "Changgan, where are you going?"
Xiao Changgan said with a dark face, "I'm going to find that dog-bitch Ma Lan!" ===== CHAPTER 594 =====
