Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Just like that doll cover, Madam Liang had been doing it for so long, but in front of others, she only said that she had found an embroidery job. She bragged about it everywhere, but she had never revealed that it was the work given to her by the Lu family’s second branch.
Madam Liang was indeed very cautious when it came to her.
She was in a daze as Mrs. Tang’s words echoed in her head. She was starting to have difficulty breathing.
No, she had to discuss this with someone.
Madam Liang arrived at Lu Dasong’s house with unsteady and anxious steps. Lu Dasong had just finished his afternoon nap and was about to go to the fields to work.
When he saw Madam Liang coming over, he stopped in his tracks and asked, “Third Sister-in-law is back? Have you eaten?”
Madam Liang nodded her head randomly. “I’ve eaten, I’ve eaten. Eldest Uncle, I have something…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Madam Li at the side. Thinking of this unreliable sister-in-law, she instantly swallowed her words.
Madame Li was impatient to see her. She had long known that Dahu was also attending private school. The sons of the second and third branches had all gone to school. Only their Erniu could follow the Lord to the fields.
Erniu was the oldest of three brothers. When he first found out, Madam Li threw a tantrum at home.
Now that Madam Liang had come over, Madam Li was annoyed. “What are you doing here?”
“I, I have something to ask Daniu for help.” Madam Liang hurriedly called Daniu, who was in the house, “Daniu, you, you come out quickly. Go to the village chief’s house and borrow the ox cart to send me back. Something happened. I have to go back quickly.”
Something was wrong with her. Daniu came out of the main room and he was about to get off the bed.
Madam Li was not happy to hear what Madam Liang said, but this was the first time Daniu had seen Third Aunt’s pale face. His intuition told him that the matter was not small, or else she would not have become .
He immediately said to Lu Dasong, “Father, I’ll go to the village chief’s house to borrow a car to send Third Aunt back to the county town.”
Madam Li wanted to stop him, but Madam Liang took out ten copper coins and handed them over. “Go quickly, go quickly.”
The people from the Lu family’s first branch looked at Madam Liang in shock. She took the initiative to take out the copper coins to borrow the car. This was truly unprecedented.
It seemed that something big had indeed happened. It was so big that even Madam Liang was abnormal.
Daniu didn’t delay any longer and didn’t decline. He took the copper coins and ran out.
Lu Dasong and Madam Li looked at each other. The latter thought for a moment and went forward to ask, “Third Sister-in-law, what happened? You look like you’ve lost your soul.”
Madam Liang did not seem to hear her. She turned her head to look at her and began to walk back and forth in the courtyard.
Madam Li pursed her lips and did not ask any more questions.
Daniu moved very quickly. When the sound of a carriage’s wheels could be heard outside the courtyard, Madam Liang could not wait to rush out and get on the ox cart. “Hurry, hurry back to the county town.”
Daniu nodded at Lu Dasong, then pulled the reins and drove the ox cart away.
Seeing that they were about to reach the village entrance, Daniu saw a fat and familiar figure in the crowd and hurriedly pulled the reins.
As soon as the car stopped, Madam Liang became anxious. “Why did you stop? Hurry up and leave.”
“Third Aunt, did you bring Dabao back with you?” Daniu pointed at Dabao, who was proudly talking about how he had been praised by his teacher for studying in a private school. A group of children were surrounding him in amazement, their faces full of admiration.
Madam Liang was stunned for a moment before she slapped her forehead fiercely. “I, I forgot about him.”
