Chapter 334 - The Youngest Prince and His Bodyguard
Chapter 334: The Youngest Prince and His Bodyguard
As soon as she woke up, Guan Chibei was standing in the house. Her clothes had become loose because she had slept for a long time.
Therefore, she could be considered to have casually put on a coat… Almost half of it was exposed…
And that was not all. The most shocking thing was that although the babies were already eating solid food, they ate everything. When they were fed solid food, they would eat solid food. When they were fed goat milk, they would drink goat milk. They wouldn’t want to drink breastmilk. Furthermore, they were young. Ye Lulu realized that the three babies had special physiques. If she ate normally, the babies would not suffer from heat after drinking breastmilk.
In conclusion, Ye Lulu had not forced the babies to stop drinking breastmilk. She would only feed them occasionally, so the babies still had the instinct to look for breastmilk in her arms.
At this moment…
As her clothes were thin, it aroused a familiar desire in the eldest son. The baby instinctively buried his head in her arms… and sucked her nipple!
The problem was…
The man was in the house, right in front of her! Right by the bed…
Ye Lulu was badly shocked and felt uncomfortable. Not only was she stiff like a rock, but she was also so embarrassed that she felt like she could dig a hole and hide in it. She did not dare to move her eyes or look at Guan Chibei…
She did not dare to imagine how Guan Chibei would react when he saw this scene…
The eldest son was still pressing around in her arms. Ye Lulu was about to die. She suddenly pulled the thin blanket on the bed and covered herself and the eldest son with it, leaving only his head for him to breathe.
Ye Lulu said in a crying tone without looking at Guan Chibei, “You can go out first.”
She couldn’t be bothered to explain. Everyone knew how dejected she was…
Unexpectedly, there was silence for a moment before a man’s calm voice sounded. He said, “It’s not like I haven’t seen them before.”
It meant ‘why was she so nervous and embarrassed?’
It wasn’t as if he had never seen them before…
When these words entered Ye Lulu’s ears, she was shocked. She recalled the bathroom incident…
That did seem to be the case. Why was she embarrassed? Hadn’t Guan Chibei seen her before? What hadn’t he seen before?
Ye Lulu also gave up on struggling and weakly said, “Go out first. I don’t have the strength to talk.”
She did not know what the expression of the man standing in front of the bed was like.
She only felt him stand there in silence for a moment. He didn’t say anything and his aura was very stable. He stayed for a while before turning around and walking out.
His footsteps were neither fast nor slow, just like usual.
After he left, Ye Lulu looked at the door curiously. She did not look at him. What expression did he have just now?
Was he laughing at her?!
Ye Lulu patted her face. She couldn’t help it. These things were really surprising. She didn’t think of them on her own accord. No matter how embarrassed she was, it couldn’t be reversed.
Ye Lulu patted the eldest son’s buttocks and scolded softly, “It’s all your fault, you little rascal.”
Just as she finished cursing, another person walked up from the bed trembling. However, he touched Ye Lulu’s feet under the blanket and fell onto Ye Lulu’s body.
“Ma-ther!”
The baby did not feel any pain at all. He was still lying on Ye Lulu’s feet. He looked up and opened his mouth happily, calling out to Ye Lulu.
The last baby was still lying on the same spot. He did not move at all and only opened his eyes. He didn’t even want to give Ye Lulu another look.
Ye Lulu reached out and pinched the youngest child’s buttocks. “How can you be so lazy? Eh? Forget about being introverted. You’re even lazy. You didn’t even move. Your two brothers already know how to walk. Are you not going to learn how to walk?!”
Ye Lulu had used a lot of strength this time. She was not joking as she pinched the baby’s chubby buttocks.
The youngest child suddenly opened his eyes.
It was as if this small person could not stand being pinched on his buttocks like this. He turned around in embarrassment, no longer looking at Ye Lulu!
Was this brat so arrogant…
After playing with the three babies, it was time to get down to business.
Apart from raising the three babies, Ye Lulu was also preparing to open a shop.
There were a few trivial matters. Ye Lulu decided to help the villagers by collecting vegetables in Yunwu Village.
The main reason was that although most people in Yunwu Village had said bad things about the Guan family, it was not a lie to say that the village had been around for decades. Furthermore, Ye Lulu still had the intention to take care of the poor families in the ancient mountains. She picked out some families with good character who needed help and collected their vegetables. This could be considered as helping the villagers.
This way, there would be no more criticism in the village.
As for meat, she had contacts in the city. Ye Lulu had also done research on how other restaurants operated and contacted farmers who raised chickens and geese.
This was also the solution for seasonings, rice, and noodles.
As for hiring people, Ye Lulu needed both Old Aunt Xu and her grandson even more now. Old Aunt Xu was weak and happened to be carrying three babies with her. Ye Lulu did not plan to abandon Xu Huang. She would let him stay by her side and ask him to do everything.
As for the small restaurant, it was indeed short of people…
Ye Lulu had asked Mother Rong if she wanted the entire family to help out in the new shop. There were many men in the Guan family, so there was no lack of workers. The sisters-in-law could also help in the kitchen.
She did not expect Mother Rong to reject her. She was unwilling to give up the stall now and said, “Let’s see if there’s anyone in the village who can help.”
Ye Lulu was a little surprised. Since the opening of the shop, Mother Rong had been very concerned and nervous. She thought that Mother Rong wanted the whole family to manage this new shop.
Unexpectedly?
Mother Rong actually gave an unexpected explanation. “Although my current business is only at a stall and can’t be compared to a shop, it’s still profitable. The family has two jobs to earn money, so it’s more stable. I don’t plan to stop my business. I want to continue setting up my stall.”
Ye Lulu was surprised and stunned. Then, she figured it out. Mother Rong seemed to have learned from the incident with Wang Ba and thought that eggs could not be placed in the same basket.
Furthermore, the farmers were used to doing work. Mother Rong was also addicted to setting up the stall. Although she was tired from working all day, she felt very fulfilled and satisfied!
Therefore, Mother Rong had decided that she would not be involved in the shop.
“Lulu, you’re capable. You can manage the new shop,” Mother Rong wiped her hands and said directly.
“However, if our family wants to help over there, they can do as they wish.”
Surprise was reflected in Ye Lulu’s eyes. To be honest, although she had indeed spent a lot of effort on this restaurant, deep down… she had not planned for it. She had also made a plan that if she left the Guan family in the future, she might leave the restaurant to the Guan family.
Unexpectedly, Mother Rong trusted her so much that she could let go of her authority and let her manage the shop alone?!
Looking at the other Guan family members, none of them seemed to have any objections…
Ye Lulu was silent for a moment. It had to be said that the Guan family’s human connections were really good. Be it in ancient times or in the modern era, they were considered at ease.
In that case, it would be the same as Ye Lulu’s initial plan. If it was fully up to her, Ye Lulu would go to the village to pick some people and hire them as workers.
There were definitely many simple people in the mountains. Furthermore, they were from the same village and were all poor people. Why shouldn’t she help them?
However, in the previous round, they had scolded the Guan family the most behind their backs. It was a little shameless for them to turn around and ask the Guan family for help. That was why Ye Lulu did not agree.
In fact, Ye Lulu was very happy to find the villagers.
After Ye Lulu filtered through the village, she selected a few people. First, she looked for the ones who needed help the most, similar to Old Aunt Xu’s family.
There were indeed a few families with older children. Among them was a girl who was eleven or twelve years old. Ye Lulu thought for a moment and hired them.
There were a total of six boys… All of them were thirteen or fourteen years old. In ancient times, they could not be considered children, but they were not adults either. Furthermore, all of them were so skinny that they looked like they were suffering from malnutrition.
They were quite energetic though.
The news of Ye Lulu finding people to work in her new shop spread in the village in the blink of an eye. The imagined scene appeared. Many villagers ignored the mocking and scolding of the Guan family and swarmed to the Guan family’s door!
The Guan family’s door was tightly surrounded again.
Too many villagers were making a ruckus. They relied on the fact that there were many people in the village. In any case, everyone wanted to take advantage of the Guan family!
On what basis did the Guan family hire those people but not from their own family?!
They did not care!
If the Guan family wanted to hire someone in the village, everyone felt that they had to hire someone from their families. Otherwise, they wouldn’t agree. Otherwise, the Guan family would be unfair!
The villagers were making a huge ruckus. They took advantage of the fact that there were many people and became even more arrogant, as if they were forcing the Guan family.
Ye Lulu turned around and saw Father Guan at the door. She was at a loss because Mother Rong and the rest had left for their stall as usual. He was the only one left at home and could not handle the stance of the villagers.
The villagers naturally had the intention to bully Father Guan.
When he saw that Ye Lulu was back, Father Guan looked as if he had seen his savior. He quickly said to Ye Lulu, “Come quickly. The villagers have something to tell you.”
When Ye Lulu saw this, she sneered and walked over slowly.
Faced with the fierce villagers, she said directly, “It’s up to our family to decide who to hire. What is everyone doing? Are you forcing our Guan family? Or do you think that you can cause trouble just because you have more people?”
The villagers were quiet for a moment, but when they saw that there were many people, their arrogance rose again. They opened their mouths and wanted to argue.
Ye Lulu then said, “It’s useless to create a ruckus. Our family will hire the people we want to hire. If I close our door, will everyone burn our house down?”
She sneered in her heart. She hated such coercion the most. Who did they think they were?!
