Chapter 199: It’s not just the Liu family that has wild ideas, there’s also the Jia and Zhang family
Lin Chen didn't take the Liu family's whims to heart and could reject them with just one sentence.
If that kid Liu Guangqi dares to keep pestering me, then I have no choice but to teach him a lesson...Shazhu and Shamao are examples of this.
This kid’s wife is not on the list of people who get stolen, and her appearance is average, so the system probably doesn’t think highly of her... I’m lucky enough that I don’t steal from your house.
Jia's side
After returning home, Jia Zhang was still thinking about the scene where Bai Ling donated money with a wave of her hand... This scene seemed to be imprinted in her heart and could not be forgotten for a long time.
"How can a girl like her be the director of the security department? And how can she spend all that money in a month? It would be great if she could join my family. Qin Huairu is pregnant and needs a little maid to take care of her. She can't wash clothes or cook anymore. The little maid's cooking must not be delicious... If it doesn't work out, I can cook for her. Five dollars a month is not too much! I can also accompany her to eat meat every day..."
She laughed out loud due to her whimsical idea...
When Jia Dongxu and his wife heard her mumbling, Ma Lan sneered: "Go and tell your mom to stop dreaming. She's dreaming before she even goes to bed. If Bai Ling wants to live with her, I'll take her surname Zhang."
Jia Dongxu also had a headache after hearing this. His mother was indeed daydreaming. Even if they wanted someone to cook, the Xu and Liu families in the backyard were waiting, so it would not be the Jia family's turn to show off. They were willing to help for free, but Bai Ling probably wouldn't want it.
"Mom, are you crazy? Don't make yourself miserable. It's not fashionable to hire maids to serve people now. How can a cadre hire someone to cook for him? Director Bai and Qin Huairu are sworn sisters... It can be explained in a situation with a reason. Qin Huairu also has a reason to ask her cousin to take care of her."
Jia Dongxu made a lot of sense...
After hearing this, Jia Zhang rolled her eyes at her son and said, "Don't meddle in my affairs. You are such a heartless person who forgets his mother after marrying a wife. What's there to be afraid of if I ask you? What if it works out?"
Just like that, Jia Dongxu was retorted by my mother...Ma Lan walked into the main room with a sneer, hoping that Jia Dongxu would not be able to accomplish anything.
"I, Ma Lan, will keep my word. If you can get Bai Ling to live with the Jia family or you can help with the cooking, I will be called Zhang Lan from now on... I will see how you embarrass yourself tomorrow."
Jia Zhang didn't respond to Ma Lan's words, but turned around and went to sleep. Anyway, it wasn't her money that was donated today, so she didn't feel bad at all. Last year, when Ma Lan didn't get married, Yi Zhonghai gave her one dollar and asked her to donate it. Jia Zhang felt bad for several days before coming over...
"Tsk, our Zhang family doesn't want an unfilial daughter like you. Asking is not against the law, what's there to be afraid of... How can I be afraid of losing face?"
"My aunt's filial piety depends on the person. You have been trying to control me since I came home. You helped your son beat me, and now you want me to be filial - no way."

backyard
Liu Lan became a little confused after listening to the heart-wrenching voice.
"Sister Huairu, aren't you going to help? She sounds so pitiful! She looks like she's about to die. Her voices are louder than Sister Xueru and Sister Huizhen's begging for mercy."
When Liu Lan lived in Qianmen, she lived across the room from him, not as close as she is now... There was also a passage connecting them, so it would be strange if the noise wasn't loud.
"No need, they are all fake pleas. They must be feeling happy inside!"
Liu Lan had never experienced it, so how could she know whether it was true or not.
"Oh, there's even a fake beg for mercy! I thought it was over..."
"It's too early! You will slowly understand in the future... Everyone is different, even your sister Ladi is different."
……
The northwest wind has already started blowing in the city in early winter.
Although the morning was already chilly, it still couldn't stop everyone from enjoying the feast. Especially for a feast that didn't require ceremony...
Commander Liu got up early and was very happy... He was still in charge of the whole event today.
The He family father and son slept well today, and Yi Zhonghai hired a cook from outside.
……
backyard
Bai Ling opened the door happily.
In front of the moon gate leading to the backyard, Jia Zhang, who had been waiting for a long time, came to greet them happily.
"Morning, Director Bai!"
After Bai Ling looked to the east and west, the second aunt and the dwarf both looked towards her.
"busy?"
Jia Zhang looked at Bai Ling and smiled flatteringly: "Director Bai, your sister can't even take care of herself now. So I would like to invite you to live with me. How about that? I'm good at cooking and washing clothes..."
Before the other party could finish speaking, Bai Ling raised her hand to interrupt the other party's chatter. I thought she was going to do something so early in the morning. I didn't expect that Lin Chen was right. She was going to plot against me.
Last night in bed, Lin Chen reminded himself that Jia Zhang would come today... He didn't expect that he was so good at judging people.
What Bai Ling didn't know was that this was not accurate at all. Lin Chen just listened to the Jia family's words...
"No need. The food that Lanzi cooked last night is very much to my liking. I don't plan to change places. You can go back!"
Jia Zhang wanted to fight for it again, but the dwarf at the door of the west room just laughed out loud.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, what time is it? Are you still asleep? I admire you too. You dare to think of anything..."
Jia Zhang glared at the other person fiercely, and when she turned around, Bai Ling had already returned to the house.
"Humph!"
Jia Zhang left the backyard amid the ridicule of Second Aunt and Dwarf Tiger.
When she returned home, Ma Lan saw that her expression was as ugly as if she had lost her father... and she knew that she had failed.
"How is it? Have you invited Director Bai to come? Should I change my last name to Zhang..."
Jia Zhang didn't say anything but ran to see her grandson.
Ma Lan smiled and walked out of the west room...
She had just gone out and Xu Damao, who was helping with the work, patted Sha Zhu.
"Your Ma's wife is here!"
Sha Zhu quickly turned around and greeted Ma Lan cheerfully.
"Good morning, sister-in-law. If you need any help, just let me know."
"Work hard, whether my sister-in-law can eat meat at noon depends on you."
When Sha Zhu heard this, he immediately understood what I meant: "Okay, okay, I'll serve the dishes to whichever table you sit at later... I'll make sure every meat dish is placed in front of my sister-in-law."
Ma Lan left happily after hearing this...
Xu Damao mocked: "Silly Zhu, look at your ugly face. Brother Sanbang can't serve the dishes, so he needs you to serve?"
Liu Guangqi also followed suit and mocked Sha Zhu: "Sha Zhu, are you blind? What's so good about Ma Lan? Can't you see a little girl has come to the courtyard? She's not any better than Ma Lan..."
Of course Sha Zhu knew that Liu Lan had entered the courtyard, but his stepmother had warned him last night not to look around... It was not something he could decide on his own, so he let these two idiots explore the way...
"What do you know? I just can't stand Jia Zhang bullying people."
Sha Zhu's words made Xu Damao and Liu Guangqi very disgusted.
"Go away, go away, you are just making trouble! Didn't Ma Lan beat Jia Zhang that time? She suffered a loss once when she entered the house, and she never suffered any loss again. You are just looking at her breast stick!"
