"This humble woman, Xie, thanks you, sir!"
Lu Tu nodded: "Then bring your daughter with me."
This scene was witnessed by many people, which immediately aroused the jealousy of many female refugees. They were all women, but Xie was actually favored by Lü Tu, who gave her more food than others.
But the refugees were helpless. Who could blame them for not having such an obedient daughter? Moreover, everyone had seen and knew how much humiliation Xie had endured to protect this little girl on her journey to get here.
All the jealousy in her heart finally turned into a sigh: "Oh well, we're all unfortunate people. She's finally made it through."
After returning home, Lü Tu introduced Xie Shi to Song Yuxi and Nangong Huiyu: "From now on, Xie Shi will be responsible for helping with household chores and cooking. Yuxi, you are pregnant now, so you will only be responsible for managing the cashier's money every day."

Having witnessed many such scenes, Nangong Huiyu knew that people like Xie had suffered greatly and always harbored a deep sense of inferiority, feeling unworthy of her. She deliberately put on a stern face and said, "This is my sister's intention. Do you intend to refuse?"
Seeing Nangong Huiyu like this, Xie was so frightened that she dared not say anything more. She quickly and respectfully accepted the spoonful of garlic extract and drank it down.
