Chapter 595 My Father's Surname is Lu
Hou stared in astonishment at the egg in her hand. In the past, she would never have cared about a few eggs. She even had the experience of eating only the egg white and not the yolk.
However, having gone through so much, Hou knew all too well how precious these few eggs were.
She hadn't eaten eggs for months, and now they were like a delicacy to her.
Hou raised her head and looked at Shu Yu. "They're all for us?" Four eggs! What ordinary farming family would be so generous as to give away four eggs right away?
Madam Hou frowned. "This is not good. You've only just reunited with your family, and you're already giving us so many eggs. What if they think you have a bad character?"
Although she was envious and even more eager to peel one for the sixth daughter, Madam Hou still restrained herself and talked to Shu Yu about some necessary social etiquette.
Because of what they had lost before, Hou hoped that Shuyu could cherish this family even more.
Shu Yu waved her hand, "It's nothing, my grandma prepared it especially for you. She heard that you took care of me when I was little, and she is grateful to you. My grandma said that they can't give you anything else or help you with anything else, but they can still manage to improve your meals occasionally."
Shu Yu has money, and as long as conditions permit and things are done openly, it's no big deal for her to eat well.
Hou remained silent for a long time. Back then, she had only given little Shuyu a few steamed buns and pastries. She had already asked Shuyu for that favor when they were exiled.
But judging from what she's saying now, there aren't just eggs available these past few days; there might be other kinds occasionally?
Hou looked at her daughter beside her, then took a deep breath and accepted the eggs. "Alright, then I won't be polite."
I'll pay you back another time when I have the chance.
The most important thing now is to take good care of your health and try your best to live. Especially for the sixth daughter, who is still young and hasn't fully grown up yet, she needs to eat well.
She thanked them again before peeling the eggs with the sixth girl.
There were many people around, so Hou deliberately lagged behind a few steps to avoid attracting attention.
The two ate as they followed Shu Yu toward the wasteland.
After finishing her meal, Madam Hou suddenly remembered what she was about to say, "I almost forgot, Third Miss..."
Shu Yu interrupted her, "I've now officially returned to the family line. Although my formal household registration hasn't been transferred, I really don't want to be a daughter of the Shu family anymore. My father's surname is Lu, so from now on I'll be called Lu Shu Yu. You can just call me A Yu. I'm no longer the third daughter of the Shu family."
Hou was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded, "That's right, it's not easy being a daughter of the Shu family, so I'll call you Ayu then."
"Um."
“Ayu, after you left yesterday, something happened to the Shu family. When the second young lady learned that you had been recognized by your ancestors, she was so angry that she cursed and vomited blood and fainted on the spot.”
Shu Yu paused, "She's fainted??"
"Yes, we were all very surprised."
"And then what happened? Did you call a doctor?"
Speaking of this, Madam Hou sneered, "They discussed the issue of finding a doctor for a long time, right in front of the unconscious Second Miss. They didn't wait until the Second Miss woke up before they finally went to find a doctor in the village whose medical skills weren't very good."
Calling a doctor costs money, and the Shu family doesn't have that kind of money.
Later, when the second daughter woke up, there was really no other way, so she used her own food rations for the day to send someone to fetch a doctor.
The doctor was also a prisoner exiled here; besides him, there were no other doctors in Zhengdao Village.
