Chu Xiangyu's eyes lit up, and she smiled and said, "You're really handsome. Then stay. The previous one just resigned."

"Trial period of three months, two yuan per day."

Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "She has nowhere to stay. You can give her a smaller salary and find her a safe place to live."

Chu Xiangyu glanced at Lu Yang, sighed, and said, "I have an empty warehouse. You can make do with it for now. Take the one on the far end over there."

"You can just call me Sister Chu from now on. Here's the key. Be on time, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.!"

Lu Yang nodded gratefully, thinking it would be a lot of trouble, but he didn't expect the female boss to be so easy to talk to.

"Thank you, Sister Chu. We'll head over now."

After Lu Yang finished speaking, he picked up the things and led Yao Lili to the warehouse.

"Sixty yuan a month, that's a lot! Yangzi, thank you so much!"

Yao Lili gripped the hem of her clothes excitedly and said with a smile.

"I told you you could do it."

Lu Yang said softly.

After he helped Yao Lili tidy up the warehouse, he took her to buy two porcelain basins, a towel, ointment, a toothbrush, a comb, slippers, and a kettle—everything he could think of.

"That must cost a lot of money, I don't need any of that."

Yao Lili's eyes were a little red; she didn't want Lu Yang to buy it.

Lu Yang feigned anger: "How could we not need it?"

"Keep it. I'll help you to the end. Just treat me to dinner at the end of the month."

Yao Lili's face flushed red instantly. She lowered her head, accepted the gifts, and stammered, "I... I'll definitely treat you when I get paid!"

"Lock the door at night," Lu Yang said with a smile.

Yao Lili nodded quickly and went into the warehouse.

Seeing that it was almost time, Lu Yang went to the hospital with his mother to check on Old Yu and the others.

The nurse on duty checked and said, "He's been discharged. A lot of people have come."

After thanking him, Lu Yang left with his mother.

The following night, the two stayed at a guesthouse. There wasn't much nightlife in those days, so the streets were very quiet after dark.

Aside from people getting off the night shift, you hardly encounter anyone else.

Lu Yang covered himself up completely, and when no one was around, he went around to the front door and threw all the photos of Tang Jincheng having an affair into an envelope.

After throwing it away, he immediately ran towards the guesthouse.

It's a rather remote place, and it's already dark; there's no one around.

It was almost midnight when we got back to the guesthouse.

"All submitted."

Before his mother could ask, Lu Yang said with a smile.

Lu's mother clutched her chest, her heart pounding in her chest. This was the first time she had encountered something like this. Although she hadn't done anything immoral, she still felt uneasy.

Lu Yang didn't care at all and quickly fell asleep on the bed.

The next morning, they went back to the village and made cold noodles, which they then sold in the afternoon.

The meat processing plant is not far from the fertilizer plant, and Lu Yang specifically came out to gather information.

However, nothing happened until dark when they packed up their stall.

Lu's mother looked uneasy: "Could it be that their family is very powerful and has covered up the matter?"

Lu Yang thought it was unlikely. If the Tang family had such abilities, they wouldn't have had such a hard time competing for a director position.

He hesitated for a moment, then packed up his stall and said, "Let's go home first."

When the two arrived home, they found two groups of people blocking the area around Old Yu's house. The group closest to the door was led by Lu Jianzhong, while the group opposite was led by Old Mrs. Tang.

"came back!"

Some villagers saw Lu Yang and shouted loudly.

Lu Yang and his mother rushed over, pushing the cart, and asked in confusion, "What happened?"

With a plaster still on her head, Old Mrs. Tang shouted in a shrill voice, "You little beast, you still ask what's wrong?"

"It must be you who helped the Yu family harm our Jincheng."

Lu Yang was speechless: "We've only met once. I'm just renting a house from the Yu family. How could I possibly help them harm people?"

Grandma Tang waved her hand and said, "Just tell me, did you submit the photos in the fertilizer factory's mailbox?"

Lu Yang feigned ignorance: "What photo? Who is Tang Jincheng?"

Lu Jianzhong reminded him, "That's Yu Guangxue's ex-husband."

Lu Yang suddenly realized: "Oh, I know this person, but I don't know his name. You can't blame everything on me. I'm busy making a living every day, I don't have time to meddle in your family's business!"

Lu Jianzhong chimed in, "That's right. My nephew separated from the family and is now supporting four people on his own, two of whom are in school. It's very tough for him."

Grandma Tang pursed her lips, looking suspicious. At this moment, Tang Jinze, who was standing next to her, asked, "What about the three people in the Yu family?"

Lu Yang continued to feign ignorance: "I didn't even know when they were discharged from the hospital. My mom and I went to see Yu Guangxue yesterday and that's when we found out they were discharged. They haven't come back yet!"

Tang Jinze stared intently at Lu Yang, and Lu Yang met his gaze frankly, knowing that what he said was true.

Lu Jianzhong said coldly, "The feud between your Tang family and the Yu family is your business and has nothing to do with us Lu family members."

“We live in the same village, and it’s impossible for us to help the two parties involved do anything wrong.”

Grandma Tang glared at the Yu family's yard with a look of resentment. She thought that even though the man was gone, she would still set the Yu family's house on fire.

However, Lu Jianzhong could not allow these outsiders to run rampant in Lujia Village, so he drove them away with a very firm attitude.

Tang Jinze regained some composure and realized that the Yu family of three had definitely taken the child and gone into hiding, so there was no point in continuing the stalemate.

He said something to Old Mrs. Tang, who reluctantly led the way and left.

Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and asked, feigning confusion, "What are they doing here? I heard from Uncle Yu that they're getting a divorce!"

Ge San jumped out from the crowd, laughing loudly, and said, "Uncle Yu is really amazing. He gave half of the photos of Tang Jincheng having an affair to the Tang family, and put the other half in the fertilizer factory's mailbox."

"After Tang Jincheng was suspended from his post due to reports of misconduct, that old geezer was furious. He specially hired a car to come to the village to find Uncle Yu and his family, threatening to teach them a lesson."

"When we found them, they had all forced their way into Lao Yu's yard, smashed a lot of things, and even tried to set Lao Yu's house on fire."

Yao's father rolled his eyes: "Do they really think there's no law anymore? The village chief should break these people's legs!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang couldn't help but frown. He pushed through the crowd and entered the courtyard, where he indeed saw a complete mess.

Fortunately, they only had time to damage the yard before the villagers discovered them and drove them out.

"Yangzi, do you want to find somewhere else to stay?"

Lin Hongshan said with some concern.

Lu Yang shook his head: "No need, they definitely won't come again."

After everyone left, Lu Yang and his mother tidied up the yard. Only after confirming that no one was around did Lu Yang's mother burst out laughing.

Lu Yang didn't laugh. He originally didn't want to take his anger out on the other members of the Tang family, but since these people rushed over and smashed up the Yu family's yard, he wouldn't let them get away with it.
