Shu Yu could only “reluctantly” accept it. “Then, I’ll thank you, Auntie. When I have one in the future, I’ll return it.’
“No need to be so polite.”
As they were talking, Zhang Pingning came over with a handful of fresh vegetables that she had just picked from the yard.
Apart from that, there was also a small piece of salt.
Zhang Pingning stuffed the two items into Shu Yu’s hands. “Take them.”
Shu Yu looked down and took a deep breath. “Thank you, Aunt Zhang, Miss Zhang.”
“Alright, hurry up and go back. Rest early. If there’s anything, come and talk to me.”
Shu Yu smiled and thanked them again. Then, she turned around with the food in her arms and walked toward her courtyard.
Sure enough, everyone was a friendly neighbor.
After Shu Yu left, Aunt Zhang and Zhang Pingning went back to eat. Mr. Zhang was stunned when he saw this scene. He looked at the mother and daughter. “You… When did you become so kind? How precious is this grain?
Do you think you can send it out just like that?”
Usually, when someone came over to pinch a green onion, she would quarrel with them.
Aunt Zhang gave him a sidelong glance. “You don’t understand. Miss Shu will be able to help your daughter remove the scar on her face in the future.” As she spoke, she repeated what Shu Yu said to Father Zhang.
Mr. Zhang looked disapproving. “Do you believe that? She also said that we have to wait. Who knows when she will write a letter and say that the letter has fallen or that the thing is gone. Can we still ask her to take back the food she ate?”
Aunt Zhang snorted lightly. “I’m not stupid. My eyes are sharp. Can’t I tell if Miss Shu is lying or not? Besides, even if the scar removal cream was just an excuse, it was not a big deal to help the neighbors. When we first came to the Righteous Dao Village, if someone had helped us , our little daughter wouldn’t have…
Mr. Zhang knew that she had remembered something sad, so he quickly stopped and did not ask any more questions.
He sighed. “Alright, let’s eat.”
However, Aunt Zhang, who said that neighbors helped each other, saw that the Shu family also came to ask for food not long after. She chased them out without saying anything and even scolded them.
Her swift and straightforward actions made Mr. Zhang speechless for a long time.
At this time, Shu Yu had already returned home with light footsteps. When she entered the door, she saw the Shu family sitting together. She didn’t know what they were talking about, but there was a faint sound of argument mixed
Hearing the commotion, the Shu family turned their heads in unison. When they saw the thing in her hand, their eyes widened in shock, and they could not help but swallow their saliva.
Shu Yu ignored them and went to the kitchen.
Madam Hou and the Sixth Young Lady had already neatly cleaned the kitchen. There was a stove in the kitchen and even a small pile of firewood in the corner.
It was just that the pot was a little dirty, but Madam Hou had already gone to fetch water and cleaned it up.
Although Shu Yu told Aunt Zhang that she didn’t know where to get water, everyone saw the river when they came over.
Seeing Shu Yu return, Madam Hou and her daughter immediately came over to welcome her.
Immediately after, their eyes lit up. Where did you get it?”
“l borrowed it from my neighbor.” As Shu Yu spoke, she turned her head and glanced at the four young ladies who had secretly come over to listen..
