Chapter 105 Let her eat her fill first
After Da Niu finished speaking, he walked heavily toward the Zhang family's gate with a sullen face and clenched fists.
To everyone's surprise, Shu Yu, with a tense expression, went off in another direction.
Da Niu was stunned. He looked at the Zhang family, then at Shu Yu's back, stamped his foot, and followed her.
"Ayu, should we go back and call for help?" That's right. The Zhang family has three sons, and that old woman Zhang isn't easy to deal with. They're just two juniors; taking Daya away won't be so easy. We don't want to end up hurting Daya.
However, Shu Yu said expressionlessly, "She said she hasn't eaten all day."
Da Niu suddenly stopped in his tracks. Yes, Da Ya had just said she hadn't eaten all day. Those beasts in the Zhang family, did they think the Lu family had no one to feed them? No wonder Da Ya had become so thin.
This is only what they have seen and heard; who knows what kind of bullying they have suffered in the past.
Da Niu felt a little short of breath and quickened his pace—he had to hurry back to call for help, to get his father, his third uncle, and a few of his friends. The Lu family's daughter absolutely could not be bullied like this.
He arrived at the mule cart ahead of everyone else, sat on the shaft, and started pulling the reins.
When Ke Shuyu arrived, he asked him to get off the train, and then searched around in the carriage for a while before taking out a bundle.
She then got off the mule cart and walked back into Dayan Village.
Da Niu was a little confused and stood by the car for a while before quickening his pace to catch up.
"Ayu, what are you doing?"
"Taking Daya away might take a while, so we need to make sure she's well-fed first."
Da Niu, "Shall the two of us take her away?"
"Yes, just the two of us." Shu Yu's expression grew increasingly gloomy, and her pace quickened.
At this moment, the Zhang family was unaware that someone was angrily walking towards them.
After Da Ya finished washing the dishes, Granny Zhang urged her to husk the rice grains, saying, "You're taking so long to wash the dishes, are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?"
Daya was pushed by her and almost lost her balance.
She hadn't eaten all day. She had worked in the fields for half a day in the morning, and when she came back, the whole family had finished eating, leaving her not even a scrap of food.
She drank two large ladles of water to fill her stomach, and now her vision is blurry and her hands and feet feel weak.
But she sat silently in the corner and began to thresh the corn cobs.
Zhou and Feng were both eating melon seeds, chatting and laughing while watching the children running around in the yard.
The boys were mischievous; the clothes that Da Ya had just washed for the whole family were still hanging on the bamboo pole in the yard, and the children were crawling around in and out of them.
Zhou glanced at Daya and scolded the group in feigned anger, "Be careful, these clothes were just washed by your third aunt, don't get them dirty."
Granny Zhang came out of the house, vigorously dusting off the hem of her clothes with her left hand, and scolded Zhou Shi, "If it's dirty, let her wash it again. Children are smarter if they're a little naughty. What are they doing?"
Zhou wasn't annoyed; she just smiled and said, "I was just worried that my third sister-in-law was working too hard."
“What’s so hard about it? She’s a sinner in the Zhang family now. She can’t just stay alive or die and use her husband’s family’s things to support her own family. The more work she does, the more she can atone for her sins.”
Madam Feng wholeheartedly agreed, “Mother is right.”
Then she looked at Daya and said, "Third sister-in-law, did you hear that? Someone like you would have been divorced by other families long ago. It's only because Mother and Third Brother are magnanimous that they're keeping you."
