Jiang Mian didn't know what had gotten into Aunt Lu, or if she had changed her tactics.

In short, she packed her luggage, went to her room, and then came out again.

Their attitude changed quite a bit, and it seemed like they weren't deliberately making things difficult for her anymore.

Of course, it's also possible that she simply didn't intend to make things difficult for her in front of Lu Chaochi.

Regardless, Jiang Mian felt that it was best to remain peaceful.

Aunt Lu needs to put on a show of not making things difficult for Lu Chaochi.

At worst, I'll just stick with Lu Chaochi all the time.

Anyway, the child likes to stick with her.

Lu Chaochi, that clever little devil, had eaten a delicious egg pancake for breakfast.

I was very satisfied, but some other thoughts began to arise in my mind.

After Jiang Mian washed his face and applied some lotion, she asked him, "What do you want to eat for lunch? I'll make it for you."

The dishes Aunt Lu made were clearly the kind of food that Yan Ke and Lu Hong would like.

The couple lived a healthy life every day; they seemed destined to live to be a hundred years old.

They would call her back every few days, and not only would they lecture her, she also couldn't eat properly.

It really doesn't taste good.

Jiang Mian even suspected that Lu Bozhou was always unwilling to visit his parents or go back to have a meal with them.

This is largely due to the fact that the healthy food Lu Hong and Yan Ke's family eats doesn't taste good.

If neither the father nor the mother likes to eat, then Lu Chaochi certainly won't like those dishes either.

Jiang Mian didn't want to make her child suffer, and she didn't mind working a little harder.

She never intended to slack off when taking care of the child.

But she soon realized that the current situation was not one where she intended to slack off.

It was Little Stone who wanted her to slack off.

Little Stone didn't answer her question. Instead, he turned and called out to Aunt Lu, "Aunt Lu!"

Aunt Lu responded with a strong voice and rushed over.

It's obvious they ran very fast.

Perhaps he was afraid Jiang Mian would mistreat him? In any case, the concern in his eyes was genuine.

"Aunt Lu, I'd like to have clear chicken soup and steamed meatloaf with yam for lunch."

Hearing this, Aunt Lu immediately nodded and said, "Okay! I'll go defrost the chicken now. Young master, just tell me if there's anything you want to eat. Let's eat healthily and avoid junk food."

As she said this, Aunt Lu glanced meaningfully at Jiang Mian.

Aunt Lu turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare.

Jiang Mian looked down at the little guy and gently stroked the tip of his nose.

"You wanted fried chicken yesterday? Why is it clear chicken soup today? You're not having fried chicken anymore? I even prepared the secret recipe."

Upon hearing Jiang Mian's words, the little guy's face was filled with struggle.

But he still shook his head, looked into Jiang Mian's eyes, and said seriously, "Let's fry it next time. Mianmian, you need to rest well and recover from your injury."

"So let's eat Aunt Lu's cooking first." After thinking for a moment, Lu Chaochi frowned deeply and said seriously, "It'll be a bit of a hardship."

Jiang Mian couldn't help but smile, her heart warmed by the warmth she felt.

Jiang Mian had originally planned to go out today to visit Jiang Feng at Luocheng No. 1 Middle School.

But now that Aunt Lu has arrived, it would be fine if she were easy to talk to.

Jiang Mian clearly didn't want to be alone with Xiao Shitou, as he seemed difficult to talk to.

To prevent her from saying anything irrelevant to Little Stone.

Jiang Mian felt a little helpless, as if she were the one who was afraid her mother-in-law would speak ill of her mother to the child.

But I still don't trust Jiang Feng.

After lunch, I coaxed Lu Chaochi to take a nap.

After he fell asleep, Jiang Mian went into the bathroom and made a phone call to Jiang Feng.

Since his afternoon break hasn't ended yet, it shouldn't affect his classes.

The phone rang for a long time.

Jiang Mian almost thought that Jiang Feng wouldn't answer.

The other end answered.

"Jiang Feng?" Jiang Mian didn't hear anyone speak, only rapid breathing.

It's like someone holding a phone is running at high speed.

"Jiang Feng? What's wrong?" Jiang Mian called out again.

Jiang Feng's voice finally came from the other end, his breathing rapid and disordered.

"N-nothing... I just came out to buy some things, and I was afraid of being late, so I ran out."

Jiang Feng's voice sounded alright, but Jiang Mian couldn't discern anything amiss.

Hearing Jiang Feng's voice, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"What are you going to buy?" Jiang Mian asked in a low voice. "You gave him all your living expenses, what are you going to buy things with? You idiot."

There was a pause on the other end, then Jiang Feng chuckled softly.

But she quickly became nervous again, "How did you know? He came to see you again? I've told you so many times! Don't pay any attention to him!"

"He won't do anything to me! He's such a coward, yet he's always talking about wanting to carry on the family line. I won't do anything to you, but he might not treat you the same way."

Hearing this, Jiang Mian felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

"I know. He just used a different phone to text me. I blocked his number a long time ago."

Jiang Mian said, "I don't care about him. But I have to take care of you. You've given him all your living expenses. How are you going to live on your own? I'll transfer some money to you in a bit. It's better for you to have it than for me to give it to him to gamble."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng opened his mouth, but ultimately did not refuse.

Soon after ending the call, he saw that Jiang Mian had transferred three thousand yuan to him via WeChat.

Tell me if you need more money. Don't be too frugal, or your classmates will look down on you and bully you. This isn't a small town, after all.

Jiang Feng stared at the text on the screen, his vision blurring.

Snap!

Warm liquid fell onto the screen. He raised his hand to wipe it away, then vigorously rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand.

It's too late. His classmates already look down on him and are bullying him...

He didn't run away to buy anything; he didn't have any money to buy anything.

He simply ran away to escape the relentless, suffocating bullying.

Jiang Feng once felt that he was about to give up.

Why yourself?

Why should I have to endure all this?

But after receiving Jiang Mian's call, he felt better.

I feel like I can hold on for a while longer!

Jiang Mian had no idea what her younger brother had gone through at school.

But she thought that Jiang Feng's grades were pretty good, his looks were pretty good, and his personality was pretty good too.

No matter where you are, life shouldn't be too difficult.

Moreover, she had already sent him living expenses, which put Jiang Mian at ease.

His mind was temporarily diverted from Jiang Feng's matter.

For the next few days, I ate Aunt Lu's cooking with Little Stone every day.

She is quite healthy.

But even the most injured person like Jiang Mian felt like they were about to die.

Lu Chaochi gradually lost the joy of life, and his expression became dazed.

So Jiang Mian decided to make some fried chicken for Xiao Shitou, something he had been wanting to do for a long time.

These past few days, Jiang Mian has had some free time, so she can research and make several different fried chicken flavors for him to try.

I originally thought I would have to have a good battle with Aunt Lu over this kind of unhealthy food.

But Aunt Lu just glanced at her sideways and said nothing.

Jiang Mian was busy in the kitchen. Because she had never made so many different flavors at the same time before, she was very focused and afraid of making a mistake with the ingredients.

So much so that she didn't even notice that the area outside the kitchen had become quiet... "Qiqi is here to ask for votes and favorites! Muah! The gymnastics was so heartbreaking to watch. Oh my god, Zhang Boheng is such a tragic and beautiful character, so pitiful and broken, it's just too heartbreaking!"
