Chapter 594 The Old Lady's Good Intentions
Shu Yu felt extremely comfortable. When she stayed at the Shu family's house a few days ago, she ate the food prepared the night before for breakfast.
No, it should be said that they only cook once a day, in the evening. This meal includes dinner, the following morning, and the following noon.
After all, I really can't get up in the morning, and after a busy day, I really don't want to cook anything.
Therefore, whether it was breakfast or lunch, the food was always cold, and the taste was even worse; apart from salt, there was no oil or grease at all.
And this is only the situation for the three of them. Normally, other people in Zhengdao Village only eat two meals a day.
Shu Yu was able to save her food portion because Meng Yunzheng fed her dinner, so she wouldn't go hungry the next morning.
Now, not only can she eat hot food, but she also has noodles and eggs. Shu Yu feels like she's in heaven.
However, she looked at the old lady.
"Grandma, you're working too hard, getting up so early in this cold weather to make me food. Please don't do this again..."
Before she could finish speaking, the old lady interrupted her, "What's so hard about it? Back in Shangshi Village, I got up even earlier than this. When there was farm work to be done, everyone had to set off before dawn. It's only after you came back and we moved to the county town that we rented out our fields, so there was no need to get up early, and that's why we go to bed later."
She took the water bag and filled it with hot water for Shu Yu. "Besides, I'm not some old man in his seventies or eighties, so what's so hard about this? I don't have to do anything else here, just prepare three meals a day and clean the house. San Ya and Da Hu help me, so it's very easy."
"I'm planning to get two hens once things settle down so they can lay eggs for you every day. I'll also get some vegetable seeds from the Zhang family, tidy up this yard, and grow some fresh vegetables so we won't have to go out to buy groceries."
Although the family had a mule cart, it wasn't appropriate to constantly trouble Zhao Xi to go to the county town to buy groceries, as he also had his own things to do.
"Just focus on your food and don't worry about things at home."
The old lady efficiently prepared all her things, and seeing that it was almost time to leave, she hurriedly urged her to eat noodles and peeled the shells off the boiled eggs.
Shu Yu stopped talking, but being taken care of so thoroughly made her feel very uncomfortable.
When she went out, the old lady put another coat on her, saying, "It's still very cold now, so wear this quickly and take it off when you get warm."
Then he stuffed a few eggs into her hands, saying, "These are for Aunt Hou and the Sixth Miss. Go on your way."
Shu Yu, carrying the heavy, sweet burden, hugged the old lady and said spiritedly, "Then I'm off."
The old lady smiled as she watched her retreating figure, "This girl." Why is she suddenly so clingy?
Shu Yu went to the manor to collect the tools by herself, as this place was closer to the manor and she didn't need to take the long detour through the Shu family's house.
Upon arriving at the estate, Shu Yu first looked for Aunt Hou, but there were too many people, and he couldn't find her for a while.
On the contrary, after receiving the tools, the sixth sister, with her sharp eyes, spotted her first.
After all, Shu Yu's outer garment was different from theirs and was too conspicuous. Even at this time of day when it was barely dawn, it could be seen very clearly.
Hou and the sixth daughter quickly walked to her side, Hou looking like she had something to say.
Before she could speak, Shu Yu handed her the egg, saying, "Eat it while it's still warm."
