Chapter 54 May I leave now?
Shu Yu waved the paper package. "This is pastry from Liu's Pastry Shop in town. I just found it in the main room. This is what the buyer gave to Granny Ruan to use to lure my younger brother and sister. But Granny Ruan obviously doesn't want my younger brother and sister to eat such good stuff, so just now, the eldest and second eldest brothers of the Ruan family didn't work in the daytime and hid in the house to steal food."
This is evidence that Lu Sanzhu overheard by accident.
The two daughters-in-law of the Ruan family, who had already returned from the fields, looked at their husbands in astonishment. It was one thing for them not to share food with them, but they even kept it from their children.
The eldest and second eldest Ruan brothers blushed slightly and angrily cursed, "Nonsense! When did we eat pastries? You brought these pastries from Liu's shop to frame us!"
"Before you speak, wipe the crumbs off your mouth."
As soon as Shu Yu finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on the corners of the two people's mouths, and the two subconsciously raised their sleeves to wipe them.
So what else is there to say? This man from the Ruan family is clearly feeling guilty.
Shu Yu threw the paper package in front of Granny Ruan. Seeing that she still wanted to argue, she sneered, "You don't need to say that you bought it yourself. I heard that Liu's pastries are all marked with the date, and the date on this is today. Did you go to town today? Or did someone else buy it for you? If so, who was that person?"
Granny Ruan's eyes widened, and she was so speechless that she couldn't utter a single word.
"That was...that was..."
"Enough!!" Village Chief Ruan finally lost his temper. He glared fiercely at Granny Ruan and then looked at the Ruan brothers.
His voice was deep and heavy. "You brothers are all capable, and your family isn't doing badly. Your eldest sister has always been kind and protective of you, and this is how you treat her? She's still your own sister. You sold one of her daughters, isn't that enough? Do you really want to drive them to their deaths? Do you have no heart at all?"
The Ruan brothers were not convinced. From a young age, they had been instilled with the idea by their grandmother that the sisters in the family should make sacrifices for them, even after they got married.
Although selling Er Ya last time was indeed not a good thing, this time they are giving the twins to the Yu family in town. The Yu family is a wealthy family and wants to adopt Da Hu and the others as their children. The twins will go there to enjoy a good life and it will also ease the burden on the Lu family. Why would the eldest sister be unhappy?
But since the matter hadn't been resolved, they couldn't say it was due to family reasons, so they just pursed their lips and remained silent.
Shu Yu took a few steps forward. "Can I go now?"
Looking at the mess, Village Chief Ruan opened his mouth, wanting to ask her to pay for it. But thinking of Shu Yu's earlier threat, and the looks from the other villagers of Ruanjia Village, he could only nod slightly, feeling a headache coming on. "You can leave now. I will punish them. So I hope that Lu girl won't go out and spread rumors and ruin the reputation of our Ruanjia Village. Otherwise, the villagers of Ruanjia Village will not forgive you."
Shu Yu smiled and said, "I said from the beginning that this is a personal grudge, and it's something you want to escalate into a conflict between villages. As long as you can keep that family from causing us trouble, I certainly won't say anything more."
After saying that, she swaggered towards the gate of the courtyard.
Granny Ruan looked around, but none of the villagers stepped forward to stop her. She then started yelling, "I'm going to report you to the authorities! You've trespassed on my property! I'm going to report you to the authorities!"
"Go ahead," the county magistrate said, already overwhelmed with problems.
