Hearing Lu Shengnan say this, Shen Anan didn't act pretentiously:
"That's fine. I'm mainly worried that Uncle He will worry. In that case, do you want to go to Uncle Li's house or go for a walk outside?"
She felt that if the two of them were to chat, it would be better to do it outside than at Li's house.
After all, she was just a temporary guest staying at the Li family's house, and it always felt inappropriate to entertain other guests in someone else's home.
Fortunately, Lu Shengnan didn't plan to go to the Li family. After looking around, she said, "If possible, let's walk around outside."
It would be more comfortable to talk outside than at someone else's house. After all, she didn't want others to overhear their conversation.
"Okay, then Sister Shengnan, can you show me around the compound? Besides the Li family, I only know yours and Uncle He's since I came here. I don't know anyone else, so I feel embarrassed to go out for a stroll."
She felt that Lu Shengnan came at the right time, as she was worried about not being familiar with the information about the compound.
"That's great. I'm very familiar with the situation in the compound. Let's talk while we stroll." Lu Shengnan replied with a smile.
I thought to myself that this girl is really smart and knows the situation in the compound.
Then the two of them walked along the road, chatting, and when they came across another house, Lu Shengnan helped Shen Anan introduce what this house was like.
At the same time, he also talked about the relationship between his family and them, and Shen Anan remembered them one by one.
As they were chatting, they walked to a more secluded place. Lu Shengnan looked at the small building not far ahead, her smile immediately turned cold, and then she waved to Shen Anan to turn back.
"What's wrong?" Shen Anan was a little curious about Lu Shengnan, and then she looked at the house.
This man had been fine when he was her guide before, but his face turned bad after he saw the building.
"Nothing, this family doesn't get along with my family, no, most of the people in the compound don't get along."
After she finished speaking, she leaned over to Shen Anan's ear and whispered, "Their family believes in being thick-skinned and hitting the snake with the stick. If they come to you with something in the future, don't bother with them, lest they blackmail you. By the way, their family name is Wu, and the old woman's surname is Lai. The one with the surname Lai is the most hateful."
This family is the trouble maker in the compound and no one likes them.
Mr. Wu is okay. Although he is stubborn, he is reasonable. His wife and children are just like a piece of shit. It's infuriating just to look at them.
"oh!"
Shen Anan nodded. It seemed that he had to pay attention to this family in the future.
The last names were Wu and Lai, right? She noted them down.
When walking back, Lu Shengnan met other people who were out for a walk and greeted them with a smile again.
Shen Anan still followed her and memorized their names and appearances one by one. Of course, she would also write down their positions when Lu Shengnan mentioned them.
When the old men saw Shen Anan following Lu Shengnan, most of them looked at her curiously without asking any questions.
After all, he is old, and it is not appropriate for him to take the initiative to approach and chat with the two girls.
But the old ladies were different. When they saw Shen Anan, such a beautiful new face, their curiosity was rising.
Just then, an old lady who looked quite old stopped the two of them and spoke curiously:
"Shengnan, why are you free to walk in the yard today? Who is this girl? What does she do? She's quite pretty."
"Hello, Grandma Luo, are you out for a walk too? This is my sister-in-law, Chen Anan. She just came to our compound yesterday, and I'm taking her for a walk!" Lu Shengnan replied with a smile.
This is Luo Shufen, the mother of the military district political commissar. The old lady is almost eighty years old, but she is in good health and often goes out for a walk in the evening.
"Your sister-in-law? From the old He family? Why haven't I seen her before? Which kid from the He family divorced and remarried?"
Luo Shufen looked at Shen Anan carefully for a few times, and then became a little unhappy.
She had seen several of the He family's wives, but this girl was a stranger. Could it be that some brat from the He family divorced his wife and remarried?
She had also suffered a lot during the Republic of China, and she hated those unfaithful men who abandoned their wives and children the most. This girl is so beautiful, but she married a divorced man, so she must be a vain man.
"He's not from the He family, he's from my Lu family. He's the son of my father's younger brother and my cousin." Lu Shengnan replied quickly.
We must not let this old lady misunderstand us, otherwise she will definitely cause trouble for her when she returns home, both her in-laws and her own family.
"What? Your father's younger brother? When did your father find his younger brother? Wasn't he alone?" Lu Shengnan's words made the old lady even more curious.
There are many families with a large population in the compound, and it is generally difficult to remember them all. However, there are only two or three families with a small population, and they are easy to remember. Lu Yuanshan is one of them.
Suddenly a younger brother showed up and brought his nephew's wife over. Her previous unhappiness instantly turned into curiosity.
"Grandma Luo, I can't explain this to you clearly for the time being. I have something to do, so I'll leave first. You go ahead and do your work." After Lu Shengnan finished speaking, she motioned for Shen Anan to follow quickly.
This old lady is not only old but also very gossipy. The most important thing is that she has a poor memory. If you talk to her for too long, the topic may go off track.
"Goodbye, Grandma Luo." Shen Anan also greeted her and followed.
There is not much entertainment these days, and everyone is very curious.
"Hey, this girl is still trying to be mysterious with me, an old woman. I will let my son go and ask your father directly tomorrow."
Luo Shufen muttered something, then stopped walking outside and went straight home to share this with her son.
After leaving the old lady, the two did not continue shopping. Lu Shengnan took Shen Anan directly to the small path, and the two quickly returned to the Li family.
"How about you come to my house tonight? I heard from my mom that you are good at acupuncture, and I want to try it too?" Lu Shengnan asked.
The two of them had just gone through such a long journey and were already familiar with each other, so it wasn't too abrupt for her to bring this up now.
"Of course, I have silver needles in my bag. We can go back directly."
Shen Anan nodded in agreement. Anyway, she had a shoulder bag on her back, so she could go directly to Lu's house.
