Chapter 305 Trouble
As the conversation became increasingly pleasant, lunchtime arrived before we knew it.
Because Grandpa Shao had already given instructions, lunch was prepared to be very lavish.
During the meal, thanks to the tacit arrangement by Grandpa Shao and Su Xiangwan, Xu Yirou and Grandpa Shao's mother sat next to each other.
Shao's mother also grew quite fond of this girl, whom she had come to like more and more from the bottom of her heart, and would often urge her to eat.
He even frequently used serving chopsticks to put food on her plate.
Seeing this, Xu Yirou could only awkwardly and obediently agree.
"Auntie...Auntie, this is too much, I really can't eat anymore."
Xu Yirou hadn't expected that Shao's mother would be so enthusiastic.
Looking at Xu Yirou's slender figure, Shao's mother said, "Yirou, you're too thin. You should eat more. Sigh, you're so thin, you must have suffered a lot when you were little!"
Shao's mother knew that Xu Yirou came from the countryside. Nowadays, not only in the countryside, but even in the city, there are many families that favor sons over daughters.
So without asking, she could tell that Xu Yirou looked somewhat malnourished, which showed that she hadn't had a good life before.
Upon hearing Shao's mother's question, Xu Yirou paused for a moment, then chuckled softly and said, "Things from childhood are all in the past..."
Whether it was good or bad, there's no point in recalling it now; it will only lead to unnecessary internal conflict.
"Yes, the past is the past, and people should look forward."
Grandpa Shao said, "In the future, our country will only get better and better. The future of you young people will definitely be bright."
Upon hearing what Grandpa Shao said, Su Xiangwan looked at him with respect and said, "Grandpa Shao is right. Our country will definitely get better and better. Grandpa Shao, you must take care of your health and wait to see our country prosper and flourish!"
Grandpa Shao laughed and said, "Alright, alright, don't worry. Even for the sake of you young people, this old man will take good care of his health!"
Otherwise, if something happens to him, who will protect his precious granddaughter?
Thinking of this, Grandpa Shao looked at Xu Yirou with a face full of affection.
Since the granddaughter doesn't want to acknowledge him back, then let her not!
Anyway, I'll be happy if I can spend more time with this old man when I have time in the future.
Just then, a commotion arose outside the courtyard.
Upon hearing the commotion, a hint of displeasure flashed in Old Master Shao's eyes.
Today is his beloved granddaughter's first meal at home, why is someone here to ruin the atmosphere?
"Butler, what's going on? Why is there such a commotion outside?"
Mr. Shao keenly sensed his father's emotions and quickly asked.
His father had finally calmed down, and now someone else is going to provoke him.
What if he gets upset and takes it out on me?
"Sir, it's...it's Miss Ziyu. She's making a scene outside, trying to come in..."
The butler spoke with a troubled expression.
He was truly fed up with Shao Ziyu.
Who would have thought that someone who used to seem so arrogant would become so shameless after being kicked out of the Shao family?
Mr. Ming and his wife have already made it clear that they are severing ties with her.
Besides, didn't her husband and wife give her a choice back then?
Since she's so reluctant to give up her status as the eldest daughter of the Shao family, she should just honestly break off her relationship with that traitor's grandson!
Why, after choosing that traitor's grandson, did she then make such a fuss about coming back to continue being her pampered young lady?
Where in the world can you have your cake and eat it too?
The housekeeper said that it was Shao Ziyu who was causing trouble outside.
Old Master Shao's face immediately darkened.
This annoying thing, didn't it just come and cause trouble yesterday? Why is it here again today?
If it weren't for considering his son and daughter-in-law's feelings, he really would have liked to just throw this awful thing into a corner where he couldn't see it.
Of course, he was also well aware of his son and daughter-in-law's thoughts.
They simply believed that the person who switched their daughter would definitely come back to check on her, and they wanted to keep Shao Ziyu as bait so that they could find their biological daughter.
Seeing this, Mr. Shao was also very annoyed. He and his wife hadn't slept well for a long time since they learned about Shao Ziyu's identity.
The arrival of Su Xiangwan and the others today, especially the presence of Xu Yirou, inexplicably calmed them down a lot.
We haven't even had a chance to properly enjoy this moment of peace!
Why is Shao Ziyu causing trouble again?
"Just have someone kick her out! Don't let her make a scene here and disturb the neighbors."
Mr. Shao spoke directly.
Although, in recent days, they have disturbed the neighbors more than once because of Shao Ziyu's matter.
The Shao family has completely lost face.
"yes!"
The butler quickly agreed and was about to go out to shoo the person away.
He had just opened the courtyard gate when, to his surprise, Shao Ziyu was already prepared. As soon as he opened the gate a crack, Shao Ziyu bumped into him.
After knocking her down, he rushed inside without looking back.
"Dad, Mom, please save me! I really have no other choice, I'm your daughter!"
Shao Ziyu rushed into the living room and shouted loudly before she could even see what was going on inside.
When the crowd saw Shao Ziyu's face, which had been slapped so badly it looked like a pig's head, they almost didn't recognize her.
When Shao's parents looked at the seemingly insane Shao Ziyu, their eyes showed not a trace of pity, but rather an overwhelming sense of disgust.
Why did you come here?
"Dad! Mom! I beg you, please give me some money! Otherwise, I really can't survive!" Shao Ziyu looked at the pile of delicious food on the table, subconsciously swallowed, and took a step to walk towards the dining table.
Money is important, but...
But she hadn't eaten those delicious dishes on the table for a long time.
These days, she's been staying at the Lai family's house, eating sweet potato porridge and coarse grain cakes every day. Those cakes are so prickly, they feel like they're going to cut your throat.
At first, she couldn't eat anything at all.
However, I got so hungry later that I had no choice but to eat it even though I was starving.
Even so, there weren't enough coarse grain pastries.
I could only manage to eat about half full.
She's pregnant right now!
But it's the time when nutrition is most needed.
She did not tentatively make any requests to Lai Jinchuan regarding this matter.
However, every time she brought this up, Lai Jinchuan would look at her with a hurt expression and ask her resentfully if she thought he was too poor and regretted being with him.
