Chapter 598 Meng Yunzheng is a Hidden Genius
The official had already received benefits from Meng Yunzheng, so he naturally recognized her.
Moreover, since Shu Yu wanted to go hunting, which wasn't a difficult thing to do, he readily agreed.
Finally, he reminded her, "If you win the lottery tomorrow at 5 a.m., come back to pick up your tools. I'll arrange for someone to accompany you."
"good."
Shu Yu nodded in agreement. The hunting time would be later than the clearing of the land. Going into the mountains was dangerous; if it got dark, accidents could easily happen.
The government's main purpose was to make the prisoners work and hunt, not to actually kill them.
When Shu Yu came out of the estate, Madam Hou and the Sixth Miss were still waiting for her. The two of them had known about her plans for a long time, but even though she had actually changed jobs, they still felt it wasn't suitable.
"Are you really sure? Going hunting is dangerous."
Shu Yu smiled and said, "It's okay, my brother said he'll prepare some tools for me."
This is perfect. Now that we've recognized each other as family, we can at least have a legitimate way to get things like bows and arrows.
Thinking of the Lu family, none of them objected, and feeling that she shouldn't say anything more, Hou nodded and didn't try to persuade them any further.
The three of them arrived at the Lu family's door. Shu Yu originally thought that since they were already at the Lu family's door, she might as well introduce Hou and the other woman to the Lu family.
However, Madam Hou refused, feeling that Shu Yu had just reunited with her family and was not yet familiar with them, so it was best not to disturb her further.
Seeing that she insisted, Shu Yu did not try to persuade her any further. After giving the grain in his hand to Hou Shi, they parted ways and went home.
Hou did not refuse the food. After all, they had worked all day and were indeed very hungry.
However, their resources were limited, and the amount of food they received was naturally not much. Shu Yu now had a family, and while their meals might not be the most luxurious, they were certainly better than these coarse grains that hurt her throat. She figured the Lu family wouldn't want this food either.
After Hou and the sixth daughter left, Shu Yu pushed open the door of the Lu family's house.
As soon as she entered, she smelled a familiar aroma. Her fatigue seemed to vanish instantly, and she immediately headed towards the kitchen.
The old lady was setting the table with Sanya when she saw her come in and quickly came over. "You're back? Go wash your hands, let's eat first."
Sanya had already cleverly added half a ladle of hot water to the basin, then came over and pulled her, "Second sister, come quickly."
Shu Yu smiled and, after she finished washing her hands, San Ya took the hand cream and applied it to her hands, muttering as she did so, "Grandma said that Second Sister works hard and her hands are calloused. So every time she washes her hands, she has to make them smell nice. From now on, Second Sister's very important task of washing her hands will be entrusted to me."
Shu Yu found it amusing. "Handwashing has become such a serious matter?"
Sanya raised her head and nodded very seriously, "Mmm."
Shu Yu burst out laughing, then turned around and saw Zhao Xi and Da Hu entering the kitchen. Da Hu's face was still smeared with ink, suggesting he had been practicing calligraphy.
This little guy can't go to school now, but he hasn't fallen behind in his studies.
When he returned from Jiangyuan County, Master Wen still gave him a task and gave him several books to read slowly.
Although Da Hu no longer has a teacher, he can still learn on his own, and he can ask Zhao Xi for help with anything he doesn't understand.
Although Zhao Xi was a doctor, he was literate and more than capable of serving as a temporary tutor for a student like Da Hu. If he couldn't do it, there was always Meng Yunzheng, a hidden genius whose paintings were worth a fortune.
