Chapter 44 Return Gift



When Lu Huanying heard that the silly girl was going to follow Lu Juanjuan to Xinyi Town, Wei Mian was a little worried: "Juan, Yuzhu is shy, why don't you help her get the award back!"

"That won't do, Grandma! This is an order from the county. Besides, representatives from all over the country are waiting to see our commune's heroine. You don't know, but recently the wolves in the mountains have been causing trouble for many people. Yuzhu defeated the black wolf, which gave them some relief. Everyone is looking forward to seeing her!"

Lu Juanjuan thought, if Tian Yuzhu didn't go to receive the award in person, how could she make a fool of herself?

Lu Huanying was still worried: "That's true, but Yuzhu's situation is special. I'm worried that she won't go with you. In this room, she only relies on me and Azhen. So why not let Azhen go too? That way, Yuzhu can feel at ease."

Lu Juanjuan shook her head: "No, every commune has requirements for who should attend the commendation meeting. It would be against the rules for my sister-in-law to go with me."

This is a difficult situation.

Lü Huanying had no choice but to turn around and ask the silly girl in the quilt: "Yuzhu, tomorrow this sister will take you to the town to play and receive the award certificate. Are you willing to go?"

She thought the silly girl would be shy and say she wouldn't go.

Unexpectedly, Tian Yuzhu lifted the quilt and sat up: "Go, I'll go."

Hey, why is she suddenly not afraid of strangers now?

Could it be because Lu Juanjuan came to our house two or three times that he was familiar with her?

Seeing that the matter was settled, Lu Juanjuan said, "Okay, I'll pick her up early tomorrow morning."

After she finished speaking, she stood up and said goodbye. She really couldn't bear to look at that lively face. Every time she looked at it, her heart ached.

Furthermore, two days ago, her father Lu Fugui came to the Shi family to talk to the old lady about her and Shi Zhentang, but the conversation ended without any result. She still feels a little uncomfortable about it.

The old lady didn't force him to stay.

After waiting for Lu Juanjuan to leave, he quickly instructed Su Zhen: "Check to see if the red jacket has dried. Take out your needle and thread and sew the buttons on her to make it more secure. You have to let Yuzhu wear the red jacket when she receives the award. The color suits her beautifully."

"Grandma, aren't you afraid that Yuzhu will get lost?"

Su Zhen was a little worried. For some reason, she felt that Lu Juanjuan might not be so nice to Yuzhu.

"Of course I'm afraid."

Lu Huanying turned around to look at the silly girl, gently smoothed her hair, looked at the silly girl and said with a kind smile: "But the more I worry, the more I have to train her. Think about it, this is a commendation meeting organized by the county, which is a national matter. So I bet no one dares to lose Yuzhu. As for those little grievances, Yuzhu must learn to face them on her own. She will have to face this step on her own."

Su Zhen thought that the old lady had her own way of educating people.

But what if it were her!

Her eyes couldn't help but look at the two little ones, but she couldn't bear to do that.

As expected, Lu Juanjuan asked Dr. Wei to come and see Yang Dahua.

They came in the snow and wind. When they entered the house, they saw Yang Dahua crying with red eyes. Doctor Wei was confused: "Auntie, you don't have a fever. Are you feeling unwell?"

Yang Dahua turned her head and said, "No one believes me."

Doctor Wei was completely confused.

It turned out that before he came, Yang Dahua told her son Shi Weiqiang about the yellow croaker, but Shi Weiqiang ignored her and instead covered himself with the quilt and fell asleep.

Oh, what a heartless thing.

If he hadn't been discovered by the villagers, he would have frozen to death outside, but his son would probably still be sleeping!

The more I thought about it, the sadder I became, and I started crying.

But even though she cried, Yang Dahua still had some dignity left. She was too embarrassed to tell others about how she had snatched the yellow croaker.

But she suddenly realized that she had not fainted for no reason. Someone must have hit her from behind.

Who could that be?

Of course it’s a silly girl.

The thought of this made her hair stand on end. Yang Dahua knew how far she had run at that time. How did that idiot do it? She didn't dare to think too deeply about it, and she couldn't figure it out.

Doctor Wei looked at Shi Weiqiang who was sleeping soundly with his head covered, and felt helpless. He could only perfunctorily say a few words: "Auntie, don't let your imagination run wild. You are fine. You just feel a little uncomfortable because of the cold. From now on, you should rest well in the house and don't go out again. Just be careful not to catch a cold."

There were no extra medicines on hand, and seeing that Yang Dahua's life was not in danger, Dr. Wei naturally got up and left.

Anyway, he didn't want to offend anyone from the Shi family.

"Old Three, what's your attitude?"

As soon as Dr. Wei left, Yang Dahua took a breath and started cursing: "I'm your mother. Why did I faint outside in the snow? Can't you ask? You are such a heartless person. You don't even care about your own mother's life or death. What's the point of me giving birth to you?"

"Yes, I was born to raise you and exploit you."

Shi Weiqiang finally spoke, but it would have been better if he hadn't said anything. His words choked Yang Dahua so much that she almost vomited blood.

"What are you talking about, you little bastard?"

"Humph, I, a little bastard, was also born by you, an old bastard."

"Shi Weiqiang..."

Wow!

What on earth was going on? Yang Dahua turned around and started crying loudly.

What did she do to give birth to such a person?

At this moment, the door was pushed open again.

Yang Dahua thought it was someone from the village who came to see her, so she quickly shut her mouth.

But the person who came turned out to be Zheng Mudan. She didn't even look at the mother and son and went straight into the hut.

Half an hour ago, Zheng Mudan brought the big yellow croaker home, which surprised the whole family. They were happy and worried at the same time, because the gift was too expensive.

Finally, the village party secretary came back from the commune and gave him an idea: "We have to return such a big gift. And since Yuzhu saved my life, we have to return a big gift."

As for what gift to return?

The village party secretary paused for a moment and said, "Five catties of flour and five catties of dried deer meat."

In those days, white flour was a rare and good food, and deer jerky was also rare. It was a good thing that the three sons had caught while hunting in the mountains. They killed the deer and made jerky out of them.

They are all waiting to eat it with wine during the New Year.

However, no matter how precious something is, it cannot compare to a big yellow croaker and the grace of saving a life.

Besides, the Xu family has a strong labor force. If they run out of food, they can just earn more. They have plenty of energy.

Fortunately, she was wearing thick clothes in the winter, so when Zheng Mudan hid the two things in her arms and went into the house, Yang Dahua and the others didn't notice.

"Grandma, you have to accept it no matter what, otherwise I will be scolded by my father-in-law when I go back."

After entering the house, Zheng Mudan took out the noodles and dried deer meat.

Lu Huanying knew how good these two things were. Needless to say, white flour was very good. Right now, every household was short of food, and any white flour they had was earned with many work points.

Jerky deer meat is not bad either. If you secretly take it to the black market in the city and exchange it for food, it can also be exchanged for food.

Naturally, the old lady refused to accept such an expensive item.
