Chapter 35
At first, Madam Ruan thought it was Third Lu and his wife, but Daniu’s voice sounded instead, “Second aunt, it’s , Daniu.
Dahu quickly turned around and ran over to open the courtyard door.
Daniu’s face was filled with joy as he walked in with the rice, flour, grains, and oil that Shu Yu had bought.
Shu Yu and Madam Ruan also ca over. Daniu looked at Shu Yu, his eyes sparkling, “You, you’re really Erya? ”
“Yes.”
Daniu laughed and said, “Good, that’s good. It’s good that you’re back.”
When he had driven the ox-cart and they had arrived at the village entrance, Shu Yu had run back first. Daniu had originally followed her, but he had to drive the ox cart. The village road was narrow, so his progress had been slow.
On the way, he happened to run into Lu Dasong, who was rushing back from the fields. Lu Dasong told him not to go. After all, Old Ladu Ruan was not easy to get along with. Daniu was an honest person and a junior. If they t face to face, he would only be at a disadvantage.
Lu Dasong stated that he would just go over and take a look himself.
Then, Lu Dasong asked Daniu to return the ox-cart to the village chief’s house first before going ho to call his wife over. So things were easier to solve between won.
In the end, when Daniu returned the ox-cart to the village chief and went ho to call his mother over to help, his mother was unwilling and said that she did not want to get involved in Old Lady Ruan’s matters. When seeing that he was back with rice, flour, grains, and oil, she had even almost snatched those things away.
Just as Daniu had been arguing with his mother, Lu Dasong returned.
Only then did Daniu hear of Shu Yu’s identity. He hurriedly carried the things and ran to Second Lu’s house.
He said to Madam Ruan, “These are all bought by Shu… Erya. She heard that you were in trouble and ran back, so she didn’t have ti to carry them with her. I’m just sending them over.”
Madam Ruan looked at the things in Daniu’s hands in shock, “This, this, Erya, why did you buy these?”
Shu Yu just smiled and said to Daniu, “Thank you. It’s getting late. Stay for dinner?”
“No, no. I have food at ho. I’ll go back first,” Daniu waved his hand and left.
The door closed again, leaving only Shu Yu and a few others in the courtyard.
Madam Ruan looked at the rice and flour on the ground, speechless for a long ti.
Shu Yu simply handed the oil to Sanya and put the at in Dahu’s hands. Then, she picked up the rice, flour, and bowls while saying, “Let’s go. Help
take them to the kitchen.”
Sanya and Dahu looked at each other and saw that Shu Yu had already walked into the kitchen without looking back. The two of them quickly followed.
Madam Ruan was stunned for a mont, but she quickly followed.
“Erya, why did you buy so much food? What, what are you doing? It wasn’t easy for you to co back, so we should be the ones taking care of you. Why are you the one spending so much money instead?”
Shu Yu placed the rice and flour on the table and turned to look at Madam Ruan’s flustered expression. She said in a slightly depressed mood, “If you continue to say such things and be so polite to , you’re just treating
as an outsider.”
“No, no, how could I treat you as an outsider? You’re my Erya. Mother won’t be polite with you, no indeed.”
Shu Yu imdiately waved at Dahu and Sanya, “Okay, let’s make noodles for dinner tonight. It’ll save us the trouble. How about egg and shredded pork noodles? There should be eggs at ho, right?”
Egg and shredded pork noodles?
Sanya and Dahu swallowed their saliva and looked at Shu Yu with bright eyes.
Shu Yu asked them to help carry a basin over, “I’ll show you guys my skills today, but you have to help
start the fire.”
