Chapter 5 Rejoicing in the Dust
Lu Yu walked out of the kitchen with a blank face: "What's the matter, Grandma Shu?"
"Let me ask you, where did you get so many wild vegetables from today?"
"I dug it. ”
"You are talking nonsense!" Shu Ning said angrily: "Li Xiaojiu, I really didn't expect you to be this kind of person, how can you dig up as much as you alone? ”
"I didn't. ”
"Don't quibble!" Li Daniu said: "I know you hate me in your heart for not eloping with you, forget it if you steal my wild vegetables, you also steal the two girls of Xiaoning and Xiaoqing, you are really shameless!"
Shu Qing wanted to say something, Shu Ning waved his hand: "Forget it, we won't quarrel with you, as long as the wild vegetables are at home, it doesn't matter who digs them, but Brother Da Niu's wild vegetables, let's still give them back to others." ”
As soon as Shu Qing said this, Widow Shu looked at Lu Yu with a dark face and said: "You shameless little bastard, you even have to steal this kind of thing, do you think you can hide it from us by doing something like stealing chickens and dogs? ”
Lu Yu pinched between his legs, and his eyes were red: "Aunt Shu, I really didn't steal wild vegetables." ”
Widow Shu was so disgusted that Li Xiaojiu was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, and was about to drive her away directly, when the door on the east side, which had always been closed, was pushed open heavily.
"It's noisy!"
The boy's clear voice reached everyone's ears.
There was a ten-year-old boy standing in front of the door, his facial features were immature, but he was born with peach blossom eyes, he grew up, I don't know what a beautiful man he was, Li Daniu, who was also a man, sneered, and secretly scolded a little white face.
Lu Yu glanced at the child lightly, Shu Chen was different from the skinny appearance in her memory in the previous life, although Shu Chen, who is still the baby of the Shu family, is sick all the year round, he still has meat on his face, he is wearing a small cotton coat that is rare in a farmer's family, and his hair is meticulously tied, which is very beautiful and cute.
"Oh, good grandson, why did you get out? ”
"Grandma, what do you say?"
"It's nothing, you go and rest. Shu Wang urged Shu Chen to go back to the house, worried that a shameless little slut like Li Xiaojiu would dirty her precious grandson's eyes.
"They said I stole wild vegetables. As soon as Lu Yu opened her mouth, the Shu family stared at her deadly, eager to eat her alive.
Shu Chen glanced at Shu Ning Shuqing, frowned, and said, "I came back with Li Xiaojiu just now, and she dug the basket of wild vegetables herself." ”
Shu Chen only said this, then closed the door, Shu Ning and Shu Qing froze instantly, looking at Shu Wang's gloomy face, their hands and feet were weak in fright.
Widow Shu was stunned: "What's going on?"
"Ahh Lu Yu patted his head and said with a smile: "I remember, when Shu Chen went out for a walk in the afternoon, he happened to bump into me by the lake, and the two of us came back together." ”
"Li Xiaojiu, you did it on purpose!" Shu Qing was annoyed and ashamed, and her cheeks turned the color of pig liver.
"Okay, don't be ashamed, go back to the roof wall! punish you two for not eating tonight, Da Niu is fine, go back." ”
Shu Wangshi scolded coldly, although Shu Ning Shuqing did something wrong, but Li Xiaojiu was an outsider after all, compared to the guilt for her, Shu Wangshi only felt embarrassed at the moment.
Li Daniu left the Shu family in a gray manner, and then Lu Yu didn't know if it was intentional, and made tonight's meal extraordinarily fragrant, the kitchen door was open, and the aroma of the food filled the small courtyard of the Shu family.
Shu Qing, who was locked in the wall of the house, screamed a few times, and said with a pout: "It's so hateful, grandma actually punished us for an outsider!"
"It's said that it's an outsider, Li Xiaojiu thought that she would be able to stay in our house by pleasing her grandmother, she dreamed, and her father and mother would not let her go!"
Shu Ning had a hunch that her mother would definitely find a way to drive Li Xiaojiu out.
In the hall, the Shu family sat around the table for dinner, Shu Chen's difficult ancestor locked himself in the room as usual, and the Shu widow went to serve Shu Chen with the meal, and was no longer on the table.
Li Mei's eyes rolled around, and she put more rice in Lu Yu's bowl, and said with a smile: "It's Xiao Ning Xiaoqing who didn't do it right tonight, I apologize for the two girls, but the two of them are also for the good of their younger brother, these two girls are straight-eyed, and they still remember the incident between you and Da Niu, then again, it's not a matter that you have been in our house." ”
Shu Wangshi frowned and said: "The Li family hasn't repaid the money yet, what can she do if she doesn't press our family?"
Although she still doesn't like Li Xiaojiu, she has to admit that this Li Xiaojiu is quick at work and good at cooking, so it is better to detain her to work at home before the Li family pays back the salary.
Li Mei sighed: "Mother, don't you know, how do the people in the village laugh at Chen'er, saying that our family is holding Li Xiaojiu, are you still thinking about marrying Li Daniu's broken shoes to Ah Chen?"
"Fart!"
Li Mei's words stimulated Shu Wang's family, Shu Chen was her precious life, she couldn't stand such criticism from others, and was about to open her mouth to drive Lu Yu away, Lu Yu suddenly said: "Don't you want to be happy for Shu Chen?"
"Chongxi can't take your turn. ”
"But you can't find anyone else for the time being, since I am compatible with Shu Chen, even if I don't marry him, if I can stay and take care of him, maybe his illness will be better." ”
Although Lu Yu was too lazy to take care of Shu Chen, she wanted to stay and get back the sum of money that the Shu family owed her, although she couldn't kill them directly, but now she stayed to add the biggest blockage to the big house.
"You don't talk nonsense! You obviously just want to stay at my house to eat and drink. Li Mei was speechless by the sharp-toothed Lu Yu.
Lu Yu ignored her and said to Shu Wang: "Grandma Shu, is face important or Shu Chen's illness important? Even if the fortune teller is not accurate, I can stay in your house to work before my family pays off the salary." ”
When Shu Wang heard this, he hesitated for a moment, and immediately made a decision: "Okay, you will go to sleep in the dust room tonight!"
Lu Yu: "......"
Ha?
Of course, Shu Wang's family wants to save face, but she lost her husband and son in her later years, just such a precious grandson, how the people in the village like to say it, even if there is a little possibility of curing Shu Chen, she has to try.
Li Mei and Shu Duofu saw that the old lady was angry, looked at each other, and closed their mouths with dark faces.
Lu Yu was a little embarrassed, and after eating, he was half-carried by Shu Wang's family to Shu Chen's room.
Shu Chen had just eaten, and Widow Shu told him a story on the side, I have to say that Shu Chen is a rare handsome child in Qingping Village.
Seeing that Lu Yu was also here, Widow Shu frowned and said, "Mother, what are you bringing her for?"
"What else can you do, rejoice in the dust. ”
Widow Shu was not happy when she heard this: "She eloped with someone, what kind of joy did she give Chen'er?" Chen'er lost face by her, and our family will find the village chief to call the shots for us, let's drive Li Xiaojiu away!"
