Chapter 100: Self-Surrender
The village chief slowed down, and then said to Lu Youcai:
"Youcai, you can do this, you discuss the specific things with the girl, I don't know."
Lu Youcai bowed down and responded with a "yes", and then said to his father:
"Father, the meal is ready, see if it is served first, and then we will talk about it after eating."
The village chief stood up slightly, obviously he was not lightly angry just now, Shu Yu saw this and hurriedly came to help the village chief, the village chief glanced at it, shook his head hatefully, and did not speak.
Shu Yu didn't see it, helped the village chief to the dining table and sat down, he sat next to him, Lu Youcai brought out the last dish from the kitchen, followed and sat down, Xia Zhu also followed out of the kitchen, and came to Shu Yu to wait.
Shu Yu turned around and said:
"Xia Zhu, don't stand, sit down and eat together."
Xia Zhu replied in fear:
"Xia Zhu doesn't dare, Sister Yu, you eat first, Xia Zhu just waits."
Shu Yu stood up and whispered in Xia Zhu's ear:
"What are you afraid of, this is not the Shizifu, we are guests, so we don't have to be so formal."
Lu Youcai heard Shu Yu invite Xia Zhu to sit down, and wondered about the relationship between them, but thinking that Shu Yu had already opened his mouth to invite Xia Zhu, he hurriedly helped to persuade:
"Little girl, since the girl has asked you to sit down, you can sit up, you need to be polite, and treat this place as your home."
Xia Zhu sat down on the table stupidly, looking very restrained, not daring to move the chopsticks, Shu Yu looked at Xia Zhu with a smile, put a chopstick dish into her bowl, and when she saw that there were only the village chief and Lu Youcai on the table, she asked again:
"Uncle, aunt! Why don't you see her, it's time to eat. ”
Lu Youcai replied with a smile:
"Girl, you are also a guest now, let's eat, your aunt will still be in the field, and you will come back and eat two bites casually, don't worry about her."
Shu Yu stood up and said:
"How can this be done, I'll go and find her back for dinner." As he spoke, he was about to go out.
Lu Youcai hurriedly stood up and stopped:
"Girl, you sit down, she will be back in a while, let's eat ours."
Xia Zhu also pulled Shu Yu's sleeve, looked at Shu Yu with his eyes clicking, and whispered:
"Sister Yu, the daughters of the main family are not allowed to serve at the table, this is a courtesy."
Shu Yu is not used to the etiquette of opening and closing her mouth in this society, and always feels that the so-called etiquette is unfair to women, which makes her feel very uncomfortable, and the seed in her heart that wants to make women turn over has begun to sprout again.
In this way, Shu Yu finished the meal with his thoughts, and only then did he say to Lu Youcai after he was done:
"Uncle Youcai, I originally wanted my uncle to come forward to help me buy some materials for the honey locust tree, since my uncle refuses, this matter can only be handed over to you, let me tell you......"
Shu Yu successively told Lu Youcai about some details and prices of the acquisition of honey locust trees, and when he talked about Wan Zilou, he obviously felt that Lu Youcai's face had changed.
Lu Youcai asked:
"Girl, you said that I would send the acquired things to Wanzilou to you, as far as I know, Wanzilou is a Qinglou, could it be that Lu Pingchuan really sold you to Qinglou?"
Shu Yu understood what Lu Youcai meant, and quickly explained:
"Uncle, this is a long story, Wan Zilou, with my efforts, is no longer doing the business of selling meat, and has changed his ways, we are ready to produce some things and do regular business."
"Girl, you have such a great ability, let Wan Zilou give up selling meat, you must know that Wan Zilou is a kind of unscrupulous person, don't you deceive your uncle and let your uncle's reputation be ruined." Lu Youcai obviously didn't believe it, and his tone began to become bad.
When the village chief heard Lu Youcai say this, he immediately got angry when he just went down, slapped the table hard, and said angrily:
"I'll just say that this girl is uneasy and kind, since she has arrived in the Qinglou, she shouldn't come back to trouble my two fathers and sons, and want me to say, do what we should do, don't be whimsical, be careful of being poked in the back."
Xia Zhu was confused when he heard it, but he also heard it clearly, the village chief had some opinions and misunderstandings about Shu Yu, and hurriedly said:
"Grandpa the village chief, I don't understand why you have such a big opinion of Sister Yu, but let me tell you! Our son is very polite to our Sister Yu, and he admires her very much! I think she did the right thing, and I borrowed a lot of silver taels from her! ”
When the village chief heard Shizi, he was immediately stunned, and asked suspiciously:
"Little girl, you make it clear, the son you are talking about is the son of the king of Xinyang in our Moon Port City?"
Xia Zhu nodded and responded:
"Of course, there are still a few sons in Yuegang City, of course, there are only our Xinyang Wang princes!"
The village chief was suddenly frightened and incoherent, and his speech began to stumble, and he tried to organize the vocabulary and asked:
"This ...... This...... Are you saying that Shuang'er girl knows the son of the world and is appreciated by the son? ”
Xia Zhu nodded seriously, looked at the village chief with a puzzled expression, and asked:
"That's right! Grandpa the village chief, I am from the Shizi Mansion, because there is no maid beside Sister Yu, the prince specially asked me to follow Sister Yu to serve around. ”
The village chief saw Xia Zhu's expression and knew that Xia Zhu would not deceive himself, but at this time, it was like a different person, he looked very scared, his whole body was trembling, he stood up slightly trembling and was about to bow down to Shu Yu and apologize with Lu Youcai.
Shu Yu's hands were quick, and he quickly grabbed the village chief and said angrily:
"Uncle, what are you doing here! Do you want Shuang'er to die? How can I afford such a big gift from you, don't say that you are kind to Shuang'er's family, you are still Shuang'er's elder, you do this, doesn't this make me ashamed! ”
The village chief waved his hand, and his tone began to become respectful:
"Girl, although the old man is your elder, but he is humble and orderly, since you have been appreciated by the prince, it is to fly on the branch and become a phoenix, the old man is just a pariah, so he naturally wants to give you a gift."
Shu Yu is angry and funny, don't say that he just knows the son, but the bottom is still an ordinary person, take 10,000 steps back, even if he really flies on the branch and becomes a phoenix now, he doesn't have the mentality of dignity and order.
Shu Yu is coloring:
"Uncle, no matter what Shuang'er becomes, he will always be your junior, he was, he is, and he will still be in the future, if you have to say that you are respectful and orderly, then you are also respectful, Shuang'er is humble, and Shuang'er should also give you a gift."
When the village chief heard Shu Yu say this, he was very relieved, proving that Shu Yu was not an ungrateful person, but he still deliberately said with a straight face:
"You girl! How can you be so self-respecting, since you have climbed the high branches, you should cherish your identity, how can you surrender your identity, like us untouchables. ”
Shu Yu was also very strong, and replied:
"Uncle, don't say it, I don't feel that I am superior, and I don't feel inferior, I hope you can be like me, don't depreciate yourself, I think between people, it's the same, no one is noble, no one is low."
