Chapter 42: The Arrival of Ye Cai Ping

  Watching Chu Jiaqiang bring back a beautiful woman, the villagers couldn't help but cast sideways glances at him again. Every time, Chu Jiaqiang would do something that they didn't expect. They all knew that Ma Sao from the neighboring village had introduced a girl from town to Chu Jiaqiang, could it be her? She's really too good-looking.

  Not yet arrived at the second uncle's house, Chu Jia Wan saw her big brother coming back from afar, with a beautiful woman sitting behind him. She immediately shouted loudly: "Dad! Mom! Brother is back, and he brought his wife too! Come out and see!"

  When he heard this, Chu Jiaqiang almost flipped over, provoking Ye Caiping's giggles behind him! A red glow also rose to his face, but Chu Jiaqiang couldn't see it. The rearview mirror in front of him was gone, and the other one was broken in half.

  "Is that your sister? She's quite cute!" Ye Cai Ping said.

  "Charming? Spend more time with her and you'll find her disgusting." Chu Jiaqiang said viciously. He dared to guarantee that the little girl from earlier was definitely doing it on purpose. With this shout, he's afraid the whole village will know about it.

  First came the big black dog, and after being washed by Chu Jia's strong spiritual water, this dog became even more intelligent.

  "This dog is not bad! Looks better than my cousin's Tibetan Mastiff, majestic." Ye Caiping got off the car and stomped her numb feet. Just now she was squeezed motionless, and the road conditions were poor, making her feel very uncomfortable.

  "It's okay, smarter than an average dog." Chu Jiaqiang patted the head of Da Hei and then let it go.

  Second Uncle and Second Aunt immediately came out, and they really saw Chu Jiaqiang bring back a beautiful woman. They were overjoyed. These two days, seeing that Chu Jiaqiang didn't care about his own marriage, they wanted to urge him on, to quickly get the bride, otherwise, with the title of Town Head's daughter, it wouldn't be long before a big bunch of suitors came knocking, and the competition would be fierce.

  Chu Jiaqiang glared at Chu Jiayuan, who was hiding behind him. Chu Jiayuan made a ghostly face and then walked up to hold Ye Caiping's hand, whispering to her: "Sister-in-law, my brother might be angry, you have to help me later!"

  Ye Cai Ping took a glance at Chu Jia Qiang and nodded with a smile.

  "This girl, you know too, my sister! No big or small! This is my second uncle and aunt." Chu Jiaqiang pointed at his second uncle and others, introducing them to Ye Caiping, then said to his second uncle and others: "This is the daughter of Ye Zhenzhang, Ye Caiping."

  "Yeh's girl is here? Quick, come inside." Second Uncle and Second Aunt's enthusiastic attitude left Chu Jiaqiang speechless. How could this fake girlfriend be even more welcome than himself?

  "Uncle, Auntie, just call me Little Ping. First time here, didn't know what to bring, so I picked some strawberries." Ye CaiPing had mixed around in the city before and had met many people, her face was also thickened enough from being honed, yet she said with no psychological burden that the strawberries bought by Chu Jiaqiang were her own intention.

  "Oh dear! Good good! How polite of Little Ping? She even brought fruit." Second Aunt took the bag of strawberries.

  Chu Jia Wan stretched out her hand to grab a few, but was slapped away by her mother, who glared at her fiercely and warned: "You'd better not be too presumptuous!"

  As soon as he entered the house, Chu Jiaqiang saw that Xiaojin's little bamboo mouse was also there. This little thing is now a treasure in the family, and since Ershu and the others found out that it can help find heavenly treasures, they almost worship it like an ancestor, providing it with everything it needs to live, eat, and drink.

  Xiao Jin saw Chu Jiaqiang and immediately ran over, stopping in front of his feet. "Squeak! Squeak!" it cried, stretching out its two front paws. Even Ye Caiyun could tell that the little creature was asking Chu Jiaqiang for something.

  "Wow! What is this? So cute!" Ye Cai Ping immediately fell in love with this adorable, fluffy little guy and wanted to squat down and hug Little Jin.

  But Xiao Jin was very unwilling to give face to the beauty, and instantly dodged away, stopping at a distance, vigilantly staring at Ye Cai Ping.

  "Big brother said this is a mutated bamboo rat, called Little Jin, just like the giant panda, loves to eat bamboo shoots, and it was me who found it. Big brother said that in ancient times, this was a treasure-hunting mouse, and not long ago, it even helped me find a He Shou Wu plant!" Chu Jia Yan immediately chimed in, as if all the credit belonged to her.

  The second uncle also found it strange that this little thing only allowed Chu Jiaqiang to approach, and others couldn't get within five meters unless Chu Jiaqiang was present. This little guy would come here to wait for Chu Jiaqiang when he went out in the morning.

  "A Qiang, what do you think it wants from you?"

  Chu Jiaqiang bitterly smiled: "How would I know?" In fact, he was very clear in his heart that this little guy wanted the bamboo shoots produced inside the Shanhe Map.

  Xiao Jin became anxious upon hearing this and called out to Chu Jiaqiang nonstop.

  Ye Cai Ping was very sympathetic and said to Chu Jia Qiang: "What's wrong with you? Take it out and let her choose, isn't that okay?"

  Chu Jia Wan also chimed in, "Exactly, brother! Look at Xiao Jin now, how pitiful!" And the second uncle and aunt also regarded this little thing as a treasure, immediately nodding in agreement.

  Chu's head was as big as a bucket, and he thought of using a bamboo shoot to get rid of Xiaojin, but the occasion wasn't suitable. He said to Xiaojin: "You go back to the old house first, I'll talk about it later."

  This time, Bamboo Rat Xiaojin quieted down and slipped away in a flash.

  "Huh? Can it really understand what you're saying?" Ye Cai Ping was stunned for half a day, having never seen such an intelligent animal, not even monkeys had shown such cunning. The animals that participated in the circus performances looked very smart, but they were actually trained through many exercises, and their intelligence was trained out of them.

  "Of course! We can also understand what it says, but except for my older brother, no one else pays attention to that little gold thing." Chu Jia Yan felt a bit regretful thinking about this.

  "Alright, let's not discuss it anymore. Everyone have some strawberries! They're quite good." Chu Jiaqiang quickly shifted everyone's attention.

  Second Aunt immediately took out a fruit platter for Chinese New Year, poured out about half of it, and then took it to wash clean.

  In the evening, Second Aunt prepared a table of dishes: mushroom stewed with old chicken, cucumber stir-fried with lean meat, wax gourd stir-fried with eggs, loofah boiled, slow-cooked pork, and even asked Chu Jiaqiang to catch a big fish from the orchard's ditch to prepare a sour soup fish. Such treatment was unprecedented for Chu Jiaqiang, making him feel suffocated.
