The mule carriage soon stopped at the entrance of the Lu family’s big house in Shangshi Village. Shu Yu carried Quanquan, who was so hungry that he wanted to cry, and got off the cart.
Lanhua carried a small stool and sat at the door, waiting for them while playing with her chopsticks.
When she saw a few of them, she quickly placed the needle and thread basket on the stool and went up to them. “Father, how is Fourth Aunt’s family?”
“Let’s go in first.” Lu Dasongs expression was not relaxed, and Lanhua felt anxious.
She looked at the wound on Xiaozhen’s forehead, which was being held by Daniu, and was instantly shocked.
She waited until everyone had entered before she hurriedly closed the door.
Madam Li came out of the main room with a frown. She was about to say something when Lu Dasong instructed her, “Make something for Quanquan and Xiaozhen to eat first. Steam two bowls of egg custard to fill their stomachs.’
Madam Li frowned, didn’t move, and didn’t say what was going on. “What was there to eat? He even wanted to eat the egg custard. These eggs were saved up with great difficulty. Was he the only generous one?
“Aiya, don’t ask anymore. Hurry up. After the children are done eating, we still have to hurry to the county town.”
Madam Li was unhappy and dilly-dallied.
Fortunately, the Lanhua was smart and had already run to the kitchen to get busy.
Shu Yu couldn’t be bothered to look at Madam Li. She carried Quanquan and went to the kitchen. Xiaozhen saw this and pulled her sleeve and hurriedly followed her.
Shu Yu coaxed Quanquan as he told Lanhua about the situation in Daxu
Village.
In the courtyard, Lu Dasong was also having a brief conversation with Madam Li.
Lanhua was shocked, but Madam Li almost cursed out loud. Just as she said Yuan Shanchuan’s name, she was pulled aside by Daniu, who had sharp eyes and quick hands. “Mother, Xiaozhen is still here. Don’t make her uncomfortable by talking nonsense. And you forgot to go back to the Second
Uncle’s shop, and Lord Xiang sent someone to send a gift. Don’t worry, Fourth Aunt will be fine.’
“Of course, I hope she’s fine.” Otherwise, wouldn’t he implicate them?
Madam Li had been very troubled these two days, and now her heart was aching even more. She was also unwilling to see Xiaozhen and the others, so she simply went back to her room.
Lu Dasong did not have the time to argue with her at this juncture, and he was too lazy to scold her.
He asked Erniu, who had already run back, to take out his childhood pants and change them all.
Although Shu Yu had untied his diapers, the child’s pants were also wet.
The egg custard was quickly prepared. Lanhua gave a bowl to Xiaozhen, who was a little hesitant.
She knew that this was a precious thing. In the past, when she came to her three uncles’ houses, she had rarely eaten it.
First Uncle’s house was managed by First Aunt. Her second uncle’s family was in dire straits, and her mother would not let her eat. Third Uncle, it was already good enough that he did not complain that his Baoya did not have any egg custard to eat.
Therefore, in Xiaozhen’s heart, Uncle’s egg custard was very precious.
Now that she was steaming two bowls, she didn’t dare to do it, especially when her parents weren’t around.
Lanhua took a spoon. “Hurry up and eat. Don’t you have to go to the county town to see your mother later? Don’t delay.”
On the other side, Shu Yu had already started to feed them all. The little guy was very hungry and ate very hard.
Shu Yu fed her a bowl of soup. He was still a little unwilling to finish. He tugged at her hand and cried out,”… Eat, ah, eat.”
Shu Yu wiped the corner of her mouth. “Alright, let’s not eat for now. We’ll eat in the county town later.”
After saying that, she turned to look at Xiaozhen. The latter had already finished eating and was looking at her impatiently. She wanted to go to the county town to see her mother.
Shu Yu changed her arms and hugged Quanquan. “Let’s go..”
