Lu Yu persuaded himself and drove back to Chen's house in a carriage.

At this time, the Chen family had already eaten dinner again, but they didn't allow Shu Chen's mother and son to serve on the table, Lu Yu saw this, felt a little funny, frowned slightly, and said, "Is it true that your family can't give their mother and son nothing to eat?"

"Didn't I give you a steamed bun yesterday? "The Chen family also knows in their hearts that they are a little excessive, and they really can't get rid of the habit of being stingy, if they have this time, what if Shu Chen and the three of them have to take advantage of each inch in the future?" Chen Yao frowned and said: "You kept saying that you wanted to take care of their mother and son, but it wasn't my family who begged you, why? You couldn't do it when you said a big thing, so you came to us, right?"

Chen Yao said, and couldn't help but show disdain.

Xiaojuan and Ah Chen are also her daughters and grandsons, and she won't care if she is about to starve to death, but if she can save food at home, she can't die of hunger.

The most important thing is that she wants to see how Li Xiaojiu, a thin girl, can come back with a big talk, if she can't say why, she will be kicked out tonight!

"Then let's say okay, in the future, Mother and I will eat our own, you will eat yours, and no one will touch anyone's food. ”

Lu Yu said that, silently turned around and took out the fish and eggs he bought during the day in the carriage, and carried them into the kitchen under the stunned gaze of the Chen family.

Lu Yu steamed a pot of white rice, stewed a pot of braised pork, and the small yellow croaker he bought during the day was slipped through with vinegar, and after being brought into the room, he and Shu Chen's mother and son ate it all.

After eating, Shu Chen took the dishes and chopsticks to the kitchen to wash the dishes and said, "Xiao Jiu, now my mother and I rely on you for everything." ”

"You're my brother, what are you doing with such a foreign thing?"

Shu Chen sighed silently, and Lu Yu said again: "Does the Chen family have a bath bucket? I want to take a bath." ”

"My cousin has it, I'll help you borrow it. ”

Shu Chen stepped out and easily borrowed Chen Shanshan's bath bucket: "Xiao Jiu, where are you going to take a bath?"

"I'll go to the kitchen. "The Chen family doesn't have a spare room to bathe her.

Probably shocked by what she brought back, it was rare that the kitchen of the Chen family was not locked tonight, Lu Yu smashed the medicinal materials he bought during the day into powder, put them next to the bath bucket, waited for the water to boil, adjusted the warm water, took off his clothes and soaked his whole body into the bath bucket.

Lu Yu, who hadn't taken a hot bath for a long time, exhaled comfortably and rubbed the medicinal powder on his sallow body.

After taking a bath, Lu Yu washed his face with the rice washing water left over from the evening, and then cleaned it with well water before returning to the house lightly.

After tossing for a day, Lu Yu was a little tired, closed her eyes and prepared to sleep well, not wanting Lu Wanjun to appear in her dream again.

Lu Yu dreamed of Lu Wanjun, who had skin like clotted fat and a face like a peach blossom when he first saw Lu Wanjun, and was speechless by his beauty, covered in patches and yellow muscles.

seemed to have touched the thing he cared about the most in his heart, Lu Yu opened his eyes violently, but saw Shu Chen sitting next to him at some point, a pair of peach blossom eyes were staring at him motionlessly, with a bit of emotion that Lu Yu didn't understand.

Widow Shu lay asleep soundly, and the room was dark.

Lu Yu came back to his senses, collected his thoughts, and said in a calm voice: "Ah Chen, in the middle of the night, why don't you sleep?"

"Xiao Jiu, are you having a nightmare? ”

Lu Yu was a little embarrassed: "What did I say?"

"I didn't hear clearly, it seems to be talking about Lu or something...... Shu Chen said, lifted her quilt, got into her small body, and reached out to hug Lu Yu: "Don't be afraid, I'll accompany you." ”

"Ah Chen, it's not appropriate for you to hold me. ”

"Aren't you taking me as a brother? What's inappropriate? If you're afraid that my mother will see you, I'll leave in a moment when you're asleep." ”

Lu Yu, who dreamed of Lu Wanjun again, was indeed a little disturbed in her heart, the little boy's body was small and soft, and her hand was still patting lightly on her, which was inexplicably reassuring.

Lu Yu simply followed the meaning of his heart, did not resist again, closed his eyes again, and fell asleep quickly and magically.

In the next few days, before the fruit wine was brewed, Lu Yu shrank in Chen's house, eating big fish and meat with Shuchen's mother and son every day, knowing that the food was almost finished, and the wine was almost brewed, Lu Yu was ready to leave for the county seat, sell some silver by the way to see if the houses near the school were rented, and arrange for Ah Chen.

After having breakfast at Chen's house, they were about to leave, when the old couple of the Chen family suddenly appeared at the door: "Li Xiaojiu, you have lived in my house for nothing, should you pay the money?"

Lu Yu was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "I live in your house with Shu Chen's mother and son, I take care of food and clothing, and I also ask me for silver, have you really forgotten who Shu Chen's mother and son are?"

It's not that Lu Yu wants to care about the dedication to Shu Chen's mother and son, but he thinks that the Chen family is too much, and seeing that they have fish and meat to eat, they are actually embarrassed to open their mouths.

Chen Yaoshi was quite unreasonable, and sneered: "You dead girl with sharp teeth! Don't come to this with us, you yourself said that you were in charge of their mother, besides, of course my daughter and grandson should live in my house, don't you say that an outsider doesn't give money?"

"Grandma, don't ask Xiao Jiu for money. ”

Shu Chen put down the book in his hand, walked out of the room, and looked at the greedy Chen Yao with a calm face.

"Go back to the house! Don't get involved with adults and children!"

Shu Chen didn't move: "What's the matter, isn't my mother's subsidy to the family over the years enough for Xiao Jiu to live?"

As soon as Shu Chen's words came out, Chen Yao's face changed instantly: "Your mother was raised by me! It is natural to take some money for the family, do you think your mother took a few dollars back?"

"Do you want me to go to Uncle Chen to figure it out?"

As soon as Shu Chen's words came out, Chen Yao's fierce and hideous facial features froze instantly. Lu Yu frowned and looked at Shu Chen: "What Uncle Chen?"

Shu Chen didn't answer with a cold face, pulled Lu Yu back to the room, and closed the door smoothly: "Xiao Jiu, you don't need to know about this bad thing in my family, just live here honestly, if they really drive you away, I'll go with you, it's a big deal that the two of us will go to dinner together!"

These words made Lu Yu laugh, and he was about to ask him who Uncle Chen was, when there was a knock on the courtyard door of the Shu family, and then he heard Chen Yao's voice: "Ah, isn't this the daughter-in-law of the Shu family? Why are you here?"

Lu Yu and Shu Chen looked at each other, came to the window and looked out, and saw Li Mei, who had a big belly, coming with a basket of wild eggs.

"I don't worry about the two of them, come and take a look. ”

Shu Chen closed the window, frowned, and said, "What is the second aunt doing?"

"What else can I do, weasel to give the chickens a New Year's greeting!" Lu Yu didn't expect that Li Mei still refused to let them go, her eyes were cold.
