Lu Chaoping's eyes were almost attracted by the money bag in Feng's hand, and he didn't care whether Feng was looking at him or not.

Seeing that her husband ignored her, Feng could only look away awkwardly. She gave Jiang Yao an apologetic look with a smile in her eyes and nodded.

"Yao'er, thank you for your help."

"We are all family, do we need to be polite when having dinner? Second uncle, please don't be polite to me." Jiang Yao, who was standing by, saw it but didn't take it to heart.

Since he is interested in money, maybe Second Aunt will help him when he needs her help in the future.

It would be good to have an extra helper.

"Second aunt, you must have been tired bringing so many dishes. Come to the yard and take a rest first. I'll make you something to eat."

"Oh, Yao'er, the task you gave me is so simple. It might be more tiring to work outside. I'll go in and cook with you."

When Mrs. Feng saw that her husband was still trying to get the purse, she pushed him unhappily, stuffed the purse into her own pocket, and went to the kitchen with Jiang Yao.

His tense nerves finally relaxed and Lu Chaoping finally regained his composure.

But he had no intention of going in. Instead, he walked up to Mrs. Lu and started chatting with her.

Seeing Yao Na giving him a large sum of money without hesitation, he was really a little curious and hoped that Mrs. Lu could give him an answer.

By the time Lu Chaoping had dealt with his sister's problem, the dishes had been almost prepared.

Thinking that her second aunt's nephew was still in school, Jiang Yao made one portion first, made one portion for herself, and then placed all the dishes on the table.

After the family had a happy dinner, Lu Chaoping found an excuse and secretly took Feng to a corner in the yard.

"Madam, go and take a look at that purse. How many are in it?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Yao'er must be a good person and will not miss me alone." Feng was very dissatisfied with her husband's impatience.

What if that girl sees this and starts to have wild thoughts?

If not handled properly, it is likely to hurt their feelings.

"Well, I'm just here to take a look. If you really don't want to watch it, I can go home and watch it."

When Feng saw her husband give in, her expression eased a little, but she still snorted at him coldly and turned away.

Lu Chaoping didn't think Jiang Yao would treat them unfairly, but Jiang Yao's cooking skills were much more delicious than what he had seen at the banquet.

What's more, there were two meat dishes on the table, which didn't look like someone living in poverty. Moreover, he had heard the news from Old Lady Lu, and he was full of curiosity.

He had a vague feeling that Jiang Yao must have given him a lot of gifts.

Just as he was thinking, Old Mrs. Lu came out of the house with Jiang Xin. Seeing Lu Chaoping still there in a daze, she couldn't help but call out.

"Chao Ping, Yang Ge'er should be done with school. Hurry up and bring Feng back. We can't let Yang Ge'er go hungry."

Lu Chaoping was anxious to go home, but Feng insisted on doing something for Jiang Yao, so she had not returned yet.

Now that Old Lady Lu has said so, Feng will naturally go with him.

Lu Chaoping ran all the way home, and when he got home, Feng was already panting and out of breath.

"Idiot! Why are you running so fast? Don't you realize I can't make it in time? If you do this again, I won't take you out anymore!"

Lu Chaoping saw that Feng was really angry, and quickly comforted her, "I was just worried that I would have nothing to give Yang Ge'er when he got home, so I made such a big fuss. Come, sit down and rest for a while."

"Puh!" Feng rolled her eyes. "We've been together for many years, how could I not know your little tricks? Take a look first, and then give it back to me."

Feng threw the purse to Lu Chaoping and went to the side to get some water.

Seeing Lu Chaoping counting the money with shining eyes, Feng felt much more comfortable.

Before, when Lu Chaoping saw her bringing so many gifts, he thought she was cheated by his niece, but she didn't say a word and even complained that she didn't pay the deposit.

Lu Chaoping finally received a loud slap on the face!

After finishing her meal, Feng started to mop the floor. When she finished cleaning and heated up the food for Yang Ge'er, Lu Chaoping was still lighting the stove.

"How many are left? Let me eat some. Otherwise, I'm worried about you no matter how long you're going to finish counting!"

Facing Feng's reprimand, Lu Chaoping was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "No need. I'll be fine soon!"

"666,666,666!"

After putting the copper coin into the purse, Lu Chaoping was overjoyed and rushed forward to help Feng up.

"My dear! You are really amazing. You earned nearly 700 coins in one day. This is much better than me!"

He excitedly hugged Feng in his arms and walked around her, thinking that if he could continue doing this, his children wouldn't have to worry about money for school and his family would live a better life.

He did not feel ashamed because his wife earned more money. Instead, he was more willing to cooperate with his wife and make more money.

It’s easier than moving a large package yourself!

"Let me go! Feng was also happy when she heard there was so much silver.

However, she heard it clearly. Lu Chaoping said 666 pieces, and all those she bought today cost 650 coins each.

After being let down, she explained her thoughts to Lu Chaoping.

"Oh, didn't you say Yao'er is kindhearted? She probably hopes that you can get your body back together. Look at you, you are so thin. It's all because of your mother's incompetence that you have suffered with me for so many years."

Having said that, Lu Chaoping's gaze fell on his severed finger, and his eyes became a little gloomy.

"Yaoyao is such a good kid. I will take good care of her and make sure I don't bring anything bad to her."

The words were spoken firmly. Seeing her husband's face suddenly darken, Feng hurriedly tried to comfort him:

"We are a family, so let's not talk about this. You have always been good, and I am very satisfied."

"Well, since you think so, why don't you just not come back to the port anymore and follow me to the mountain."

Hearing this, Lu Chaoping looked up and was still a little hesitant. "I thought so too, but this trip to the port will take a long time. If Ruoyao suddenly doesn't want me anymore, what should I do?"

"I accompanied Yao'er to cook today. She told me that those dishes were prepared for our inn, and we also signed an agreement, so we can't refuse."

"Okay, from now on, I'll go with you."

The next day, Jiang Yao saw her second aunt and her husband coming, and their attitude towards her second uncle became much better, which made her very happy. She invited them to have dinner together and mentioned something by the way: her second uncle had something to say.
