Chapter 149 Potato Chips
Lu Erbai already knew the whole story. After Da Hu and the other two returned earlier and apologized to him, they vividly recounted what had happened to the Zhang family, embellishing the details.
Lu Erbai thanked Fan Zhonghe and the villagers profusely, inviting them to sit down, rest, and have a drink of water.
But the courtyard wasn't big to begin with, and it became even more cramped after all those boxes and cabinets were brought in. There wasn't even room for all of them to put their feet down. Fan Zhong didn't keep them any longer, but told Lu Erbai to rest well. Now that Da Ya's matter had just been settled, his family must have a lot to say, so they wouldn't disturb them.
After saying that, Fan Zhong left with his men.
Shu Yu saw them off at the door and solemnly thanked them as they parted, "Thank you so much for your help today, village chief and all the uncles and elders. We were able to get Daya divorced and get her dowry back. You've worked so hard. But we have a lot of things to do right now and can't spare the time. Once we're done with this, we'll definitely bring a small gift to thank you in person."
Fan Zhong chuckled, "You're quite polite, girl. Alright, alright, we know your intentions. Daya is a good girl from our village, isn't it only right to lend a hand? You go back now, we'll be going now."
He did not refuse the small gift that Shu Yu had offered.
The others waved and went home.
However, the news of Daya's divorce spread rapidly in both villages, its influence growing wider and wider, and soon became major news in Jiangyuan County.
After seeing the village chief and villagers off, Shu Yu turned around and closed the courtyard gate.
Lu Dasong and Lu Sanzhu stayed for a while and then went back, but Erniu and Dabao were still there.
The two men were bragging in front of Sanya, which infuriated Sanya, who had originally wanted to go but was left behind.
Shu Yu stepped forward, took San Ya's hand and said, "Come on, let's help Second Sister make something delicious. Eldest Sister has escaped her suffering, we should celebrate."
Sanya immediately perked up, ignoring Erniu and Dabao, and happily followed Shuyu to the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, the two followed them. Da Bao swallowed hard and asked, "Sister A Yu, what delicious food are you making? I want to eat too."
Shu Yu glanced at him sideways, and Da Bao immediately said, "I also did a lot of work today. You have no idea, Da Hu is too skinny, and he was knocked down by Zhang Jin in no time. Thanks to me, I'm fat, so I just rammed into him and subdued Zhang Jin and Zhang Yin. Isn't my contribution the greatest?"
Shu Yu's eyelids twitched. "Alright, you all deserve credit, you'll all get your share."
Da Bao was satisfied and didn't follow him into the kitchen.
Shu Yu looked at the ingredients in the house. There weren't many, and anything too complicated definitely wouldn't do.
She thought for a moment and said to Sanya, "Let's make some potato chips as a snack first, and then we'll have dumplings and noodles for dinner." It seems that we'll have to wait until another day when we buy the ingredients to have a big meal.
But even just dumplings and noodles are the most wonderful things for Sanya.
She nodded repeatedly and immediately went to get the basin and started preparing.
When the potato chips were served, Da Bao hadn't even run over yet, but Lu Sanzhu from next door was rushing over to eat them for the first time.
While eating, she kept praising, "Ayu's cooking skills are really good. The popcorn last time and the potato chips this time are things that are rare and not available around here. Why don't you open a pastry shop or a food stall? Why open a clothing store?"
In particular, the clothes in ready-made clothing stores are expensive and not suitable for him, so he can't even get a bargain.
