Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Should we go see your mother? Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Should we go see your mother? Zhou Shuyan intended to suggest transferring Lu Youxue’s household registration onto his own registration book. He barely spoke the word “let” before realizing it wasn’t right, so he quickly corrected himself, “Just go and handle Youxue’s household registration. The sooner it’s done, the sooner we can be at ease, and it will also allow us to get Youxue’s school transfer completed sooner.”
Before leaving the house, Lu Youxi had reminded Liu Yushu to bring the household registration book.
Consequently, Liu Yushu took out the household registration book from her bag and gave it to Zhou Shuyan, expressing gratitude and embarrassnt, “Xiao Zhou, this is really troubling you.”
“It’s just adding a na, what trouble?” Zhou Shuyan smiled as he took the household registration book and put it away.
Lu Youxi had already ordered the dishes, and now that Zhou Shuyan had arrived, Lu Youxi told the owner they were ready to serve the dishes.
The kitchen had been prepared early, and the dishes were served quickly, all presented in no ti.
Lu Youxi said to Lu Zhenguo and Liu Yushu, “Dad, Mom, I didn’t expect to rent the house so quickly, so I initially asked you to co over for the National Holiday just for a visit. But now that the house is rented, you might as well co and live earlier. Otherwise, it’s a waste to have it empty.”
“I and your father were thinking the sa,” Liu Yushu said, “I was planning to finish the holiday, tidy up and then move over.”
“In that case, why don’t I go back with you on the fifth?” As soon as Lu Youxi heard this, she imdiately said, “People generally go back ho on the 7th or 8th. Let’s avoid the peak and leave on the fifth. I’ll ask for a couple of days off from school, handle Youxue’s school transfer after the holiday, and then co back here with you so I can help with the luggage.”
“That’s not good, it will interfere with your classes.” Lu Zhenguo’s first reaction was to object, “You finally managed to get into Jing University, you need to attend your classes.”
“Taking two days off is no big deal, and once you move here, I can concentrate on my studies.”
Lu Zhenguo opened his mouth but ended up not saying anything else.
Now that Lu Youxi could earn money and had large considerations, he couldn’t change Lu Youxi’s mind.
“Then I’ll go back with you on the fifth,” Zhou Shuyan said, “I want to go back and see Grandma Xu anyway. Otherwise, it might be really hard to find another appropriate opportunity to go back.”
Lu Youxi hadn’t initially planned for Zhou Shuyan to follow, but since he ntioned wanting to see Grandma Xu, she couldn’t say anything more.
“By the way, Xiao Zhou, how’s your mother’s health?” Liu Yushu asked concernedly, “We brought so vegetables grown in our own garden this ti, and also a hen that was slaughtered. Although they’re not sothing expensive, they are free from pollution and harmful substances. Moreover, the hen was raised in our backyard, fed only millet without any other ss.”
“I’ve heard from Aunt Liu that city folks really appreciate these naturally grown items, whether it’s vegetables or at,” Liu Yushu continued.
Aunt Liu said that although the city sells many items, in order to make vegetables grow faster and look better without any pest damage, they are heavily sprayed with pesticides.
Chickens, ducks, pigs, etc., are fed cheap feed and hormones to make them grow quickly and fat.
Unlike the crops from their village, which are all naturally grown and free from pollutants, city folks especially love this type.
Aunt Liu has relatives in the city, and sotis when she visits the city, she would bring so locally grown vegetables and milled grains and rice, making her relatives extrely happy, smiling from ear to ear.
“I thought of bringing this for your mother to make so soup, which would be nice,” Liu Yushu said, “Don’t be offended. I initially wanted to bring eggs too, but I was worried they might get crushed on the way, so I didn’t bring any.”
“Mom, it must have been difficult for you to carry these things,” Zhou Shuyan hurriedly said, “we wouldn’t look down upon these, these are valued items in the city.”
“Should we go and see your mother?” Liu Yushu continued saying.
Zhou Shuyan was taken aback by the question.
Lu Youxi quickly said, “He… my mother-in-law…”
When she said the words “my mother-in-law,” her ears tingled.
She wasn’t as practiced or natural as Zhou Shuyan when calling Lu Zhenguo and Liu Yushu “dad and mom.”
Indeed, Lu Youxi had never discussed anything about his mother with Zhou Shuyan.
This included their sham marriage, whether his mother knew about it, or her reaction, Lu Youxi had never asked.
Lu Youxi suddenly realized, perhaps it was because Zhou Shuyan always appeared so independent, capable of making decisions on his own.
This made her overlook this matter.
“My mother-in-law doesn’t like the noise in Imperial Capital, so she isn’t recuperating here,” Lu Youxi said.
Zhou Shuyan then said, “I told my mom that you all are coming to Imperial Capital, and she was so anxious to co back imdiately. But I managed to persuade her to stay. After all, dad and mom, you will soon be living in Imperial Capital, there’ll be plenty of opportunities to et.”
“Yes, yes,” Liu Yushu quickly said, “It’s more important for your mother to recuperate properly. If it’s inconvenient to et now, please send the items we brought to her. Please don’t be offended.”
“How could I,” Zhou Shuyan quickly smiled and expressed his gratitude.

Lu Youbang returned to Jing University and imdiately called Huang ngyao.
But Huang ngyao didn’t answer.
Helplessly, Lu Youbang could only stand under Huang ngyao’s dormitory building, calling her dormitory’s landline.
This ti, Huang ngyao’s roommate answered, hesitated for a mont, and then looked at Huang ngyao.
With no choice, Huang ngyao took the phone.
“ngyao, I’m waiting for you downstairs,” Lu Youbang hurriedly said, “I can explain everything that happened today.”
“There’s no need,” Huang ngyao spoke coldly, “You don’t need to wait for downstairs.”
Hearing this, her three roommates went to the balcony to look down.
Indeed, Lu Youbang was standing right under their dorm building.
It was just past eight, a busy ti.
Many people were out for a walk, and others were on their balconies practicing various foreign language pronunciations.
Many people had noticed Lu Youbang standing below.
In the past, Huang ngyao would have found this sweet, but now she just felt embarrassed.
“Let’s break up,” Huang ngyao said flatly, “Don’t contact anymore.”
“ngyao!” Lu Youbang urgently said, “At least give a chance to explain!”
“I don’t want to hear any more of your explanations,” Huang ngyao spoke coldly, “I can’t even be sure which of your words are true and which are lies.”
“ngyao, just let explain?” Lu Youbang pleaded, “Our year together can’t end just like this!”
“Yes, I did lie about so things, but it was because I love you,” Lu Youbang said, “I said those things because I was afraid of losing you.”
“ngyao, I promise, from now on, I will never tell you a single lie,” Lu Youbang, holding his phone, looked up in the direction of Huang ngyao’s dorm, swearing to the sky.
