Chapter 286 Shu Yu: You stole it?
Lu Sanzhu and his wife ran to the kitchen, drinking ginger soup and whispering to each other, excitedly discussing the seven taels of silver.
The old lady ignored them, shook her head, and then asked about the orchid.
"You came to the county town so early in the morning, why didn't you come to Grandma's? What did you have for lunch?"
Lan Hua said softly, "I came here to sell ribbons. I've been saving them up for a long time. I came with a girl from the same village. I thought I'd come back to you after I sold all the ribbons, but I didn't expect to encounter something like this. I ate the flatbread I brought with me for lunch."
Actually, she had some hidden thoughts that she didn't say. She came to the county town today deliberately dressed like Shu Yu had before, an outfit she had practiced at home for a long time.
When I went out, several people said I looked good.
Although she was happy, she was also a little guilty, afraid that Shu Yu would see through her little scheme if she came over. So she didn't dare to come to the old lady and the others right away, thinking that she might as well sell the ribbon first.
"What about the girl from the same village?"
"We were going to sell our ribbons in the peach orchard this afternoon, but we split up. She was lucky; she ran into a group of girls and sold all her ribbons in no time. She came to me and said she had to go back. I hadn't sold many ribbons and didn't want to leave, so I told her I'd come back to see Grandma later and asked her to go back first."
The old lady nodded and patted her hand. "Next time you go to a place you don't know, don't go alone. It doesn't matter if you can't sell the ribbons, safety is the most important thing. When you go back later, you can go with your third son and his wife. It's just that your eyes are still swollen, your mother will definitely nag you endlessly when you get back."
Lan Hua shrank back, thinking of Li Shi's possible reaction. "No, it's alright, my father is here."
"It's good that you know what's going on." This time, even if the boss is there, it won't make a difference.
First, the second son's family moved to the county town and opened a shop. Now the third son and his wife have also found work and will be coming over tomorrow. People who were previously worse off than the eldest son's family are now city dwellers; won't the eldest son's wife be furious?
The old lady shook her head secretly and called out to the kitchen, "Third son, third son's wife, it's getting late, you two should go back first. Didn't you say you still need to pack your luggage? Don't delay."
Lu Sanzhu ran out happily, "Mom, let's go now."
"Okay, let's go, let's go."
Lu Sanzhu chuckled and looked at Shu Yu, who sighed, "Okay, you can borrow the mule cart for a day."
"Ayu is so considerate."
After he finished speaking, he went to lead the mule cart. His fingers had just touched the reins when he suddenly stopped, as if he had thought of something.
He rushed over again, leaned close to Shu Yu, and whispered, "Shu Yu, come here, there's something I forgot to tell you."
The old lady said impatiently, "What are you dawdling for?"
"Mom, it'll be ready in a minute, just a moment." Lu Sanzhu pulled Shu Yu and ran into the house.
The others in the courtyard looked at each other in bewilderment, while the old lady rolled her eyes.
Shu Yu followed Lu Sanzhu into the house, and the latter closed the door.
"what you do?"
Lu Sanzhu walked quickly to her, then reached into his sleeve and pulled out a jade pendant.
"Here, this is for those three young masters."
Shu Yu was taken aback. She took the jade pendant and found that it felt extremely good to the touch. Upon closer inspection of the patterns, she realized that it was of superior quality.
She stared at Lu Sanzhu in astonishment. "You, you stole it?"
"How is this possible?!"
