Chapter 986: Ma Lan

Old Mrs. Xiao didn't expect that Qian Hongyan, who had always been firmly suppressed by her, would dare to challenge her!

At this moment, she was furious in her heart, but thinking that she had no support at the moment, she immediately deflated like a punctured ball and didn't dare to make a sound.

If she had been a little better to Zhang Guifen at the beginning, the three of them would be her loyal lickspittles now, and Qian Hongyan naturally wouldn't dare to act rashly.

It’s just a pity that she had already become enemies with the three of them, and if she offended Qian Hongyan again at this time, she really couldn't find even half a helper.

So she could only say dejectedly, "I don't want to argue with you, let’s hurry up and send Changqian back to the room, and then move Hailong in!"

Xiao Changqian was about to cry and choked, "Mom, you still remember me, I can't hold on anymore..."

Old Mrs. Xiao hurriedly said, "Weiwei, Hongyan, hurry up and take Changqian back to the room and let him rest well."

The two struggled to lift Xiao Changqian to the elevator. Xiao Weiwei really couldn't exert any strength, so she said to Zhang Guifen, "Can’t you three come over and give a hand? Just watch like this?"

Zhang Guifen said expressionlessly, "When we three came, we really wanted to be a cow and a horse for your family, but your grandma didn't want it. Now, the three of us are in a co-renting relationship with you. Helping you is a favor, not helping you is a duty!"

Xiao Weiwei said angrily, "Then can’t you just reach out and help?"

Zhang Guifen shook her head, "I’m sorry, the favor is gone!"

After saying that, she said to Old Mrs. Xiao, "The biggest room on the third floor belongs to me from now on!"

Old Mrs. Xiao stood where she was, her eyes filled with tears, but she dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.

After all, it was all trouble she had caused herself, so she could only swallow her teeth and swallow them into her stomach.

Otherwise, Zhang Guifen definitely wouldn't let it go!

After warning Old Mrs. Xiao, Zhang Guifen took Li Yueqin and Dong Yuling to the third floor.

The three generations of Xiao women could only use all their strength to move Xiao Changqian and Xiao Hailong to the second floor.

To facilitate taking care of this father and son, Xiao Weiwei and Qian Hongyan moved them both to the master bedroom on the second floor and let them sleep in the same bed.

And Old Mrs. Xiao’s original personal belongings had long been thrown outside the third-floor room door by Zhang Guifen.

The old lady wanted to find another room on the third floor, but she didn't expect that all the other rooms on the third floor were occupied by the other two women.

Helpless, the Xiao family could only draw a line with the three of them. Zhang Guifen and the others lived on the third floor, Xiao Changqian and Xiao Hailong lived in the master bedroom on the second floor, Xiao Weiwei and Qian Hongyan lived in one of the secondary bedrooms on the second floor, and the other secondary bedroom was given to Old Mrs. Xiao.

After finishing the work, the family of five was exhausted and hungry.

Old Mrs. Xiao wanted to eat, so she commanded Qian Hongyan, "Hurry down and make something to eat, I’m starving to death!"

Qian Hongyan retorted, "Make what? The ingredients prepared earlier were all eaten by Zhang Guifen and the others, and now all the pots and pans have been taken away by Wu Donghai’s people. There’s only half a bag of rice in the house, and even the rice cooker is gone. What do you want me to cook with?"

Old Mrs. Xiao asked in despair, "Is there nothing to eat in the fridge? Eating a few sausages is better than being hungry!"

Qian Hongyan said angrily, "Are you senile? Even the fridge was dragged away, where do you want me to get sausages? Or give me money, and I’ll go out and buy some for you?"

Old Mrs. Xiao then remembered that Wu Donghai’s people had moved the whole fridge away just now.

In other words, there wasn't a single thing to eat in this villa now...

Xiao Hailong felt aggrieved and cried, "Mom... I... I’m so hungry... I haven't eaten a single bite since I left the house..."

Seeing her son in such a miserable state, Qian Hongyan couldn't help but shed tears and choked, "Hailong, Mom really can't help it. There’s nothing to eat in the house, and the money I could find was all taken by Wu Donghai’s people. What do you want me to get for you to eat..."

Xiao Weiwei cried and said, "Mom, why don't I go find a job tomorrow!"

Qian Hongyan nodded and said, "Finding a job is fine, but finding a job will take until tomorrow, and the salary will be paid next month. It’s almost Chinese New Year, our family can't starve through the New Year..."

Old Mrs. Xiao said at this time, "If it really doesn't work, find a part-time job! Find a job that pays by the day!"

Xiao Weiwei said, "That’s the only way..."

Meanwhile, Zhang Guifen on the third floor was also holding a meeting for Li Yueqin and Dong Yuling.

The situation the three of them faced was the same as the Xiao family’s, which was that they had no money.

So, Zhang Guifen said to the two, "It’s already a blessing for several lifetimes that we can live in this big villa now. As for eating, I think we have to find a way ourselves."

Dong Yuling hurriedly said, "Sister Guifen, what do you think we should do? It’s almost Chinese New Year in two days, we have to prepare a little, not to mention big fish and meat, at least wrap some dumplings to eat, right?"

Zhang Guifen said, "This is actually simple. I know a few cleaning companies that specialize in going to people’s homes to clean. You can earn 20 or 30 an hour. The three of us together, working eight hours a day, that’s 160 each, which adds up to 500. And now that it’s almost the end of the year, service industry fees have risen. Going to the bathhouse to scrub people’s backs can also earn a lot. As long as the three of us work steadily, the money we earn will definitely be enough for us to live."

Li Yueqin immediately said, "No problem, although I haven't had much education, I still have two arms of strength!"

Dong Yuling also nodded repeatedly, "Then we’ll listen to Sister Guifen’s arrangement!"

Zhang Guifen gave a hum and said, "Go to bed early tonight, and we’ll go out to find work early tomorrow morning!"

The A05 villa next door was a different scene.

Although Ma Lan’s leg was in a cast, her mood was quite good.

Ye Chen and Xiao Churan made dinner together. Ma Lan’s leg in the cast was stretched straight out of the dining table, and while eating, she was browsing Taobao on her phone, her expression very relaxed.

Seeing this, Xiao Changkun couldn't help but mock her, "I say Ma Lan, you really are becoming more and more heartless. Your leg just broke, and instead of acting shamelessly or cursing, you’re acting like nothing happened and browsing Taobao! This isn't your Ma Lan personality!"

Ma Lan glared at him and said with disdain, "What do you know? I’m different from before. I’ve learned how to do psychological counseling for myself!"

Ye Chen asked curiously, "Mom, can you tell me how you do psychological counseling?"

Ma Lan waved her hand, "Hey! Isn't that simple? Think about it, my good son-in-law, if I sit here and keep thinking about my leg, then I’ll definitely feel more and more uncomfortable, and in the end, I’ll be so angry that I’m miserable, and this leg won't recover naturally, don't you think?"

Ye Chen nodded, "That’s indeed the logic."

Ma Lan grinned and said, "So, I don't think about this matter anymore, and I don't think about my leg, I just think about that Li Cuihua!"

Ye Chen was stunned, Li Cuihua? Isn't that his aunt Ye Zhangmin?

Ma Lan said proudly at this time, "I just think in my heart, I’m truly lucky! I was deliberately retaliated against by that fraudster Li Cuihua, not only was I not killed by her, but I also had a fight with her!"

"Not only did I have a fight, but I also beat her until she was bruised and swollen, how awesome is that?"

Speaking of this, Ma Lan continued refreshed, "Now, this Li Cuihua has been arrested, and I don't have to worry about anyone retaliating against me in the future. Don't you think I’m happy?"

Xiao Churan asked in surprise, "Mom, who is Li Cuihua? Is she from the pyramid scheme?"

Ma Lan realized she had let something slip and hurriedly nodded, "That’s right, that’s right, Li Cuihua is the boss of that pyramid scheme! An unforgivable bastard!"
