As the sun set, Lu Yu got up and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook, and handed the axe to Shu Chen again.

After a while, there was a cry from the Shu Wang clan in the courtyard: "Oh, my little ancestor, you don't have a good rest, who asked you to chop wood?"

Shu Chen remembered what Li Xiaojiu had instructed, his little face flushed, and he said awkwardly: "I can't do anything for my family on weekdays, and I may not live long now, so I want to do something for my family." ”

After saying this, Shu Chen shook himself three times, and Lu Yu, who was eavesdropping on the movement outside in the kitchen, sighed that he could teach, if he had this half of his understanding.

Sure enough, as Lu Yu expected, Shu Wang's heart melted when he heard this, and after pulling Shu Chen into the house, he was moved by a ghost crying wolf howl, Li Mei and his wife were on the side, and their faces were black and could drip ink.

When did Shu Chen, a stinky boy, learn to say such heart-wrenching words?

At this time, Lu Yu walked in with food, and Li Mei suddenly realized that it was this little slut who secretly instigated it!

Li Mei glanced at Lu Chen, and said in a strange manner: "What's the use of Ah Chen becoming more and more sensible?

Shu Wang glanced at Lu Yu with some disappointment, frowned and counted Li Mei and said: "Okay! Do you really expect a hairy girl to make a lot of money? In the end, it is our family's own business, and we can't count on outsiders." ”

-

Shu Wang's eyes fell on Li Mei's flat lower abdomen, and he couldn't resist the thought of paying for Shu Chen's medicine and medical treatment.

Shu Wang's mood was complicated, he couldn't eat, and he didn't want to be seen by his family, so he put down the dishes and chopsticks, got up and carried water to the backyard to water the vegetables.

The Shu family knew that she was in a bad mood, and no one said anything.

Shu Ning glanced at Li Xiaojiu, who was eating silently, and scolded the waste.

"Who does the waste say?"

Shu Ning was not as stupid as Shu Qing, and sneered: "Whoever says big things but can't make money, if you want me to say, you might as well sell the hairpin that Gongzi Xie gave you, but unfortunately, some people are afraid that they don't dare to sell it." ”

Shu Qing said with a smile: "Some people sell that hairpin, I'm afraid they won't have such valuable jewelry in their lives, and they will definitely be reluctant." Originally, I treated her well as Gongzi Xie, but I just asked for food, not just leaving. ”

Lu Yu lazily explained that he had already returned the hairpin to the surname Xie, and said lightly: "I lost that hairpin in the village." ”

Shu Ning and Shu Qing glanced at each other, and were about to secretly go out to pick up at night, when the screams of Shu Wang's family suddenly came from behind the house, and the Shu family hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks in their hands and ran to the backyard.

"Mother, what's wrong?"

"This, where did this horse come from?" The Shu family looked at the jujube red horse tethered in the backyard dumbfounded.

It is rare to see cattle in the village on weekdays, let alone such a tall horse.

Lu Yu and Shu Chen followed to the backyard, and Lu Yu said: "I went to the county seat today to meet Gongzi Xie, and he gave it to me." ”

Shu Ning and Shu Qing, who were still laughing at Lu Yu just now, instantly darkened their faces when they heard this: "Li Xiaojiu, why don't you talk to our family about such a big matter?"

"I forgot. ”

"You ......" Lu Yu's salty and non-trivial answer angered the two sisters, Shu Ning said: "Such a valuable horse, you want it when Gongzi Xie gives it to you, you are really shameless!"

Lu Yu didn't bother to explain that he didn't want Xie Chen's horse at first, and glanced at Shu Ning lightly: "Don't you want to send you?"

"I ......" No matter how thick Shu Ning's cheekiness was, she was embarrassed to say what she didn't want, so she shut up in a sneer.

Li Mei and her family came to the horse excitedly: "Great, now we have a horse in our family, see if the Zhang family still shows off the old scalper!"

Lu Yu cleared his throat and said, "I'm sorry, this is my horse, not your family." ”

When the Shu family heard this, their faces instantly darkened, and Shu Duofu's eyes widened angrily: "Li Xiaojiu, don't forget that you are still pressed in my house, this horse is tied to my yard and it is mine!"

Lu Yu sneered, and was not polite: "Originally, I wanted to lend this horse to your family, but if your family dares to ask for it, I will ask Gongzi Xie to take back this horse, let's just not ask for anyone." ”

"You selfish dead girl! Our family treats you well, we don't want you to pay any dowry, and our family doesn't care about the face of Achen, you leave this horse today, and we will return to the bridge and return to the road in the future, and the two are clear!"

Besides, I have been working hard in your house, and Grandma Shu has also promised Shu Chen that she will let me go, so why do you want my horse?"

Seeing that Li Xiaojiu refused to hand over the horse, Shu Duofu was about to beat her, but the lazy horse behind him seemed to think that this person was too noisy, and suddenly raised his front hooves and kicked at Shu Duofu.

Shu Duofu was kicked a few meters away, crushed the few vegetable seedlings that had just emerged, and clutched his back and screamed.

"This dead horse. Shu Wang scolded and was about to step forward, but the horse made another move that was ready to kick people, and the Shu family didn't dare to act rashly.

Li Mei picked up Shu Duofu and said irritably: "What kind of broken horse is this, no one is allowed to approach." ”

Lu Yu had long heard that horses were human animals, and remembered the obedience of the horse in the daytime, so he stepped forward cautiously.

The originally manic horse suddenly became honest, and obediently came to Lu Xin's side, the corners of Lu Xun's lips rose slightly, raised his hand and touched the horse's head, looked at the stunned Shu family, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, this horse recognizes the master, it seems that it can't be given to your family, or are you trying?"

How dare the Shu family step forward, Li Mei said with a dark face: "This dead beast! What to try? Let's see if Duofu is injured." ”

The Shu family, who failed to grab the horse, returned to the hall in disgrace, and Shu Duofu was kicked in the back, and it is estimated that it will take ten days and a half months to completely disappear.

Widow Shu said: "This horse is not honest, or it should be sold, if only it could be exchanged for some silver to treat Ah Chen." ”

Lu Yu glanced at her, and Widow Shu's face turned slightly red.

This horse belongs to Li Xiaojiu, and what she said is indeed no different from the behavior of the big house robbing the horse, but for the sake of Ah Chen's illness, she can't care so much.

When Shu Wang's family heard this, he said to Lu Yu: "Xiaojuan is right, you are a yellow-haired girl, and you usually don't need a horse, so you might as well sell it, you only need to pay some medical expenses to Ah Chen for the money from the sale, and you can keep the rest of the silver yourself, and our family doesn't want you." ”

"I don't want to sell. ”

She will inevitably run to the county in the future, and it will be too delaying to walk all the time, and this horse can play a big role.

The most important thing is that Xie Chen gave her such a well-behaved horse before leaving, and she was reluctant to sell it.
