I can't tell others too much about this, for fear that they will hear the news. But you are the elder in our courtyard, with rich experience, can you give me some advice? "

When Jia Zhang heard this, her eyes became more determined. She patted the table, and her voice was full of determination to protect her child: "Don't worry, Mingjie, if they dare to touch you, I will be the first to stand up! They are not the only ones who have the final say in this courtyard."

Xu Mingjie felt warm in his heart. He knew that although Jia Zhang was straightforward and sometimes had a bad temper, she was kind-hearted. As long as she decided on something, she would do it without hesitation. He felt that he had won her support, but he had to continue to act carefully and not let Xu Damao and Qin Huairu notice anything.

"Thank you, Aunt Jia." Xu Mingjie said sincerely, with gratitude in his eyes. "I will be careful, but I feel more at ease with your support behind me."

Jia Zhang nodded, with a confident smile on her face: "Don't worry, just come to me if you have any problem. I am not old enough to not take care of things."

Xu Mingjie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he had greater confidence in the next action. He knew that with the support of Jia Zhang, at least he would not be completely isolated in the courtyard. Although the road ahead was still full of unknown dangers, he had begun to feel a glimmer of hope.

After coming out of Jia Zhang's house, Xu Mingjie stood in the middle of the yard and took a deep breath. The sun shone through the clouds onto the blue bricks of the courtyard, and the breeze blew past, giving him a rare sense of peace.

But he also knew that this peace was only temporary. Xu Damao and Qin Huairu's conspiracy was still brewing in secret, and he had to be more cautious to finally uncover the truth of it all.

Xu Mingjie's mood gradually calmed down. He knew that he was not alone in facing the problems in his family. He also had the support and understanding of his wife, which made him feel a strong power. Although the problems still existed, he believed that as long as he remained calm and rational, he would be able to find a suitable solution.

As the night deepened, the lights in the room became particularly soft. Xu Mingjie's thoughts were still spinning, and he was looking for a solution to the problem in his contemplation. At this time, the door of the room was gently pushed open, and Lou Xiao'e walked in. There was a hint of urgency on her face, and it was obvious that she had something important to communicate with Xu Mingjie.

"Mingjie, there are something I must tell you right away." There was a hint of anxiety in Lou Xiao'e's voice, and her expression was more nervous than usual.

Xu Mingjie saw Lou Xiao'e's expression and immediately became alert. He knew that Lou Xiao'e usually didn't show such eagerness, which showed that what she was going to say was very important. "What's wrong, Lou Xiao'e? What happened?" Xu Mingjie put down the documents in his hand and fixed his eyes on her.

Lou Xiao'e took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. Her eyes revealed a kind of determination and resolve she had never seen before. "Just now, I ran into Jia Zhang outside. She was a little dissatisfied with our previous discussion and even made new demands."

Xu Mingjie's heart tightened. Jia Zhang's attitude was particularly important to him. He knew that Jia Zhang's opinions often meant some potential risks and might also affect his next plan. "What did she ask for? Please tell me in detail."

Lou Xiao'e frowned slightly, and her voice was a little heavy. "Ms. Jia Zhang asked us to add a new clause she proposed to the plan. This clause involves a part of the family's property. Mrs. Jia Zhang hopes that we can complete the redistribution of this part of the assets in a short period of time. The reason she gave was that only in this way can the long-term interests of the family be ensured."

Xu Mingjie was filled with mixed emotions. Jia Zhang's proposal would undoubtedly affect the existing plan, and this impact might lead to more variables. His mind was circling, trying to sort out various possibilities. "Will this request have a significant impact on our original plan?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded, with a hint of helplessness in her voice. "Yes, this request involves a lot of assets. If we handle it according to Jia Zhang's request, we may need to make large-scale adjustments to the family's finances. This will not only affect our financial situation, but may also cause dissatisfaction among other members."

Xu Mingjie felt a heavy feeling in his heart. He knew that he had to think carefully in this situation, not only to balance the interests of all parties, but also to ensure that no bigger problems would arise. His thoughts kept turning around, trying to find a way to satisfy Jia Zhang's requirements while keeping the existing plan stable.

"I understand," Xu Mingjie's voice became calm and firm. "This is indeed a complicated problem. We need to find a solution as soon as possible. At the same time, I also hope that you can help me collect more information to understand whether there are other hidden intentions in Jia Zhang's request."

Lou Xiao'e nodded, her eyes full of determination. "Okay, I will find out the relevant situation as soon as possible. The most important thing now is that we need to formulate a response plan to ensure that when dealing with Jia Zhang's request, it will not cause a greater impact on the family."

Xu Mingjie stood up, walked to the window, and looked out at the night. His mood became heavier, but his determination became stronger. He knew that in the face of such a complicated situation, only calmness and patience could help him find a breakthrough. His eyes wandered outside the window, trying to draw some strength and inspiration from the quiet night.

"I'll think of a proper plan." Xu Mingjie turned around and looked at Lou Xiao'e. "We can deal with Jia Zhang's request in stages, first dealing with the most urgent part, and then gradually making other adjustments. In this way, we can meet Jia Zhang's requirements without causing too much impact on our original plan."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes showed a trace of relief. She knew that Xu Mingjie's way of thinking was more thoughtful and meticulous, which made her full of confidence in the next work. "This method sounds reasonable. We can first make a detailed plan and move forward step by step."

Xu Mingjie nodded, and his heart gradually regained its calm. He knew that the next work required more careful and comprehensive consideration, and also required further communication with Jia Zhang. His thoughts gradually became clear, and he decided to start with the most urgent part first, and move forward step by step to ensure that the problem can be solved in the shortest time.
