Chapter 386: Du Haicheng’s Provocation
Zhu Yanyi smiled. "They say everyone in that village, from top to bottom, was arrested. Some held high positions. Because of this, the big boss issued a direct order: no one can plead for them. Now, the whole country is paying attention to crimes against children. If they really did that and it gets out, their whole family will suffer."
"I forbid you from interfering in their affairs." Xie Xinlian heard this and thought of something. She looked directly at Zhu Shunyao. It was no wonder she reacted this way. If that family showed them any kindness, they would climb higher and demand more. Her family had finally achieved a peaceful life today. They could not have any more entanglements with them.
"Rest assured." Zhu Shunyao promised immediately. "Don't you know my character? No matter what, I will never let you and the children suffer. They are just distant relatives. If I could help, I wouldn't refuse. But since they are plotting against us, we cannot help them. So, I will not agree."
Zhu Shunyao had a clear scale in his heart. Besides, he had no good feelings for Zhu Guifu’s family. If it weren’t for avoiding gossip, he wouldn’t have endured it. They weren’t proper elders anyway. He only needed to tolerate them slightly. Of course, if things went too far, he would fight back.
"Actually, I’m not worried about other things." Zhu Yanyi thought about the current situation. "Our family will be very busy next. Even if they want to plot, it will be hard. Dad and Mom won’t listen to them. Plotting against them is difficult. Plotting against me and my sister is also hard. We are going to the city for school and only come back once a week. Not to mention, I have bodyguards following me now. So, plotting against us is very difficult. I’m worried they will plot against Doumiao."
"Hearing you say that, I’m worried too." Worry appeared on Xie Xinlian’s face. "I haven’t forgotten what they said at Uncle Enfu’s house." Thinking of their unreasonable demand to adopt Zhu Zhibin, she wanted to go beat them up.
"My son is not something they can snatch." At this moment, Zhu Shunyao felt particularly great. "However, next, I will be busy opening the factory. You will be busy auditing and handling your clothing business. We indeed have no time to manage Doumiao. I think, from now on, Doumiao should live and eat at Grandpa and Grandma’s place. We can visit when we have free time. He won’t come to our place. Then, they won’t be able to plot against Doumiao."
"Okay. I think your method is good. Let’s decide on this. Besides, Doumiao wants to go to primary school. I don’t understand these things. It’s good for him to follow Grandpa. He can learn some things in advance." Xie Xinlian was very self-aware. Although she knew some characters now, she really couldn’t handle systematic teaching. Thinking of how her father had taught her eldest and second daughters since childhood, she let go and let Zhu Zhibin follow Xie Zhong.
Since Zhu Shunyao’s family made this decision, they naturally did it. Although Zhu Guifu and others were watching Zhu Shunyao’s family, it was really not easy to see them. It was the holiday period. Zhu Yanyi took advantage of the remaining time to fully devote herself to studying various medicinal herbs.
