Chapter 86 The House Search Has Arrived

  I really didn't expect it, in such a situation of breaking up, Qiu Nainai can still bring Lao San and his family here.

  No matter how displeased the people at Qiu Ye's home were, they couldn't stop Grandma Qiu from coming. It wasn't until after Qiu Ye finished selling her meatballs in the afternoon and returned to her own home that she discovered there were several strangers in her house.

  An old woman with a wrinkled face and a plump figure, wearing a blue-collared garment with black trousers and black cloth shoes, sat there as if someone owed her 180 million, pouting with a long face, should be Old Lady Qiu. Next to her was a middle-aged man with hair down to his ears, sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, his eyes darting back and forth, looking like a bad guy at first glance, this should be the uneducated and unskilled Third Uncle Qiu Yansen who had been spoiled by Old Lady Qiu.

  Next to him was a young boy, about fifteen or sixteen years old, who should be the child that his mother said could eat, Qiu Jiaqing. He looked like a human being, but those eyes were somewhat lewd and slyly looking around the room. Next to him was a slightly plump middle-aged woman, dressed in bright red clothes, black pants, with a feeling similar to Wang Dandan's mother, with a strong sense of shrewdness between her eyebrows, who should be San Zhang Cuilan.

  Qiu Ye stepped into the house and saw a group of people sitting on the sofa in the living room, but his parents were nowhere to be seen. However, upon hearing the sound of stir-frying coming from the kitchen, he knew they must have gone there to busy themselves with cooking for these guests.

  Qiu Ye didn't greet the people sitting there, and instead wandered around her parents' room before dragging her brother, who had just changed his shoes, directly into the kitchen. Her parents were indeed in the kitchen.

  "Have you kids just seen your grandma? Let's go and get acquainted, Dad will take you. Xiaoye hasn't seen her grandma since birth, and Xiaofeng probably doesn't have any impression either."

  Qiu's father knew that his wife had a knot in her heart towards his mother, and he hadn't forgotten it either. Now that the person was here, as a son, he couldn't bear to let the old lady lose face, so he thought of using the child to ease Qiu's mother's anger.

  Qiu Ye didn't go, instead she retreated to her mother's side and said: "Dad, I don't want to go. Just now when I entered the main room, those people all looked at me for a moment before turning their eyes away. That aunt in red even glared at me, I don't want to go greet them."

  Qiu's father was somewhat embarrassed, he knew what his younger brother and sister were like. But he didn't expect to offend the girl at first sight. Alas, he had no choice, although he firmly stood on the side of his family, but when the old man and younger brother came, he couldn't drive them out, or else people would scold him for being unfilial!

  He was also really embarrassed. So he frowned and shouted at the girl: "Xiao Ye, you can't be rude."

  Qiu's mother, upon hearing this, slammed the pot lid loudly without turning her head to look at Qiu's father. Qiu Ye assumed that before he returned home, his parents must have had another fight in the kitchen.

  Qiu's father immediately softened his tone. He hugged Qiu Ye and coaxed her, saying: "Little Ye, you're the most sensible one. Grandma and them haven't come to our house for so many years, it's normal that they don't recognize you. After everyone meets later, they'll be familiar with each other, and no one will stare at you."

  Qiu Ye knew that if she said nothing now, it would be embarrassing for her old dad. She couldn't do something that would make her family suffer and others happy. Pretending to think for a moment, she nodded and said: "Okay, Dad, I'll go see them. If they still glare at me, I won't bother with them."

  "Go, go, go! If anyone dares to bully our Xiao Ye again, Daddy will chase him away!" Qiu Dad nodded hastily, finally coaxing the most important person in the house.

  Then Old Man Qiu led Qiu Feng and his siblings to the main house, where they formally met these people and exchanged greetings. When Qiu Feng called out "Grandma", Granny Qiu responded with a sentence, but when Qiu Ye called out "Grandma", she completely ignored her, not even giving her a glance.

  That Zhang Cui Lan was even more exaggerated, facing Qiu's father was a virtual call, from the family's furnishings to Qiu Feng and Qiu Ye's two siblings' dressing, it was simply said that there was nothing like it on earth or in heaven.

  "Older brother, your home has really changed a lot over the years. Look at this building, it's so impressive, you don't even need to burn firewood in winter anymore. And look at this set of furniture, the color is so bright and elegant, it looks very high-end here."

  "Oh my, these two kids are really something! Just look at what they're wearing, shiny and slippery. And this little face is so full of energy, they'll definitely be trouble when they grow up..."

  Qiu Ye took a look at the home she had lived in for many years, then looked down at her own clothes and her brother's school uniform, deciding it was better to stay away from this woman who lied with every word.

  Qiu Feng was annoyed by Zhang Cui Lan's words, and after saying that he had to go write his homework, he stayed in his own room, not wanting to see or hear anything.

  Qiu's father couldn't take it anymore and casually brought up a topic, asking: "Hey, where's Jia Bao?" He was referring to Third Uncle's six-year-old son.

  Zhang Cui Lan said carelessly, "That kid can't sit still for a moment, he's probably playing in some room now, don't bother with him." She spoke as if this place were her own home.

  Qiu Ye thought of something after hearing that, and wondered if the child was rummaging through his own room, where he still had stamps and renminbi in his cabinet.

  "Ah, Dad, I'll go take a look in my room first, my homework is still on the table." After saying that, she quickly ran to her own room.

  Pushing open the door, she saw a little fat boy with a shaved head sitting on her single bed, putting money into his pocket. On the single bed, there were four boxes for storing money, all wide open.

  Qiu Ye shouted: "What are you doing? Put down my money!" After shouting, he angrily walked forward and pulled out the money that the little kid had stuffed into his pocket. What kind of people are these? Are they all robbers? On the first day, they robbed him of his hard-earned money.

  The child obviously didn't think someone would suddenly come in, panicked for a moment, but immediately reacted and started arguing with Qiu Ye, one insisting on hiding, the other not allowing it.

  At this time, the people in the big house also heard the noise and came to see what was happening. When they entered the room, they saw two children tearing up a lot of money on the bed, looking stunned. Zhang Cui Lan reacted the fastest, stepping forward to separate the two kids, and at the same time, she discreetly stuffed more money into her son's pocket. She said: "What's going on here? Little Ye, this is your brother Bao, he's three years younger than you. If he did something wrong, you should talk to him about it, but don't use violence, okay? This is the old Qiu family's rule."

  After finishing speaking, he protected the child behind him and let him put the money in his pocket.

  Qiu Ye looked at and listened to this. You say, what kind of parent is this? Seeing their own child snatch money from others, not coming out to stop and educate them, but instead helping them, letting the child pretend even more, isn't this daylight robbery?

  "Third Aunt, so he's actually the younger brother of Family Treasure! I just entered the room and thought a little thief had come in. It's like they're looting the place! And Third Aunt, the money in Family Treasure's pocket is mine, can you help me get it back?" Qiu Ye said bluntly. Anyone who enters the room would have this feeling - the cabinet by the door had already been turned upside down by this child, with many clothes and broken things thrown all over the place, even the bedding on the bed was clearly rummaged through.

  "Third Aunt, you just arrived and may not know that Jia Bao is your family's ***, I am also our family's ***, my dad said that whoever dares to bully me or touch a single hair on my head, he will fight to the death. And I'm not some daddy's little princess either, so I won't take your temper."

  Qiu Ye said, while quickly picking up the remaining money on the bed, counting it hastily. Fortunately, he had only put over eighty yuan in cash at home, and now he had seventy-seven yuan in his hand. The little kid had grabbed a handful of small change, which was not much money.

  After slightly flipping through the stamps at the bottom of the box, they were all there, not a single one missing. I reckon this kid had just opened the box and was immediately drawn to the renminbi inside, without even having time to look further down.

  Qiu Ye secretly congratulated himself, he had collected a total of 24 monkey tickets in the past year and put them all in this box, as well as his deposit book. If it weren't for those few dollars, I'm afraid that little brat would have copied all his savings.

  Qiu Ye quickly put the money away and put it in a box, along with the box itself, into her backpack. She planned to take it to her godfather's house later, as there were many wolves and tigers at home now, and she didn't feel safe putting it there.

  Zhang Cuilan was also a capable person, but she ignored Qiu Ye's sarcastic words and instead said to the child who was still staring at Qiu Ye's schoolbag: "Jiabao, how could you do this? Quickly return the money to your sister." She only spoke with her mouth, without making any move to take the money out of the child's pocket.

  Qiu Jiabao listened to his mother's words and quickly ran out of the crowd, going to another room. The adults here, except for Qiu's father who furrowed his brow, all acted as if nothing had happened, not treating this matter as a big deal.

  "Oh dear, look at this child, no manners at all. Don't be angry, Xiao Ye, I'll talk to him later." Zhang Cui Lan said with a pretentious tone.

  Qiu Ye looked at her obviously perfunctory behavior and felt more and more uncomfortable. This was happening in his own home, with his own money being robbed, what kind of thing was this?

  "Third Aunt, I don't care about that kid, but he took 7.5 yuan from me, can you help me get it back?" Qiu Ye said bluntly, being polite to this kind of person is being impolite to oneself.

  Zhang Cui Lan did not expect the child to be so impolite, leaving her at a loss for words. The money was definitely not going to be returned; only an idiot would take out their own money again.

  At this time, Mrs. Qiu, who had never spoken to Yeye before, spoke up, "Alright, it's just a few dollars, isn't it? Do you have to chase after your brother like this, sister? Consider these dollars as a gift for meeting your brother."
