Almost without thinking, Shu Yu could tell what Lanhua was thinking from her behavior.
She took a few steps forward and stood in front of the girl. Then, she smiled and asked, “You’re Lanhua, right? I was just wondering why I didn’t see you.
Come in, have a seat, and rest for a while.’
Lanhua subconsciously followed her into the central room. Dabao and Erniu were already quarreling in the central room.
At this moment, the old lady came in with a fruit platter. She shouted at them,
“Alright, alright, stop quarreling. Come and eat something. Quiet down.”
Shu Yu looked at the peanuts and chestnuts served by the old lady, as well as the sour wild fruits picked from the mountain. She could not help but smack her forehead.
Third Lu hurriedly ran out of the house with his daughter in his arms. When he saw the fruit platter, he was stunned, “Mother, is this all you’re giving us?
Where are the pastries? Where’s the candy?”
When he followed Shu Yu to the county yesterday, he saw with his own eyes that she had bought those things. Why weren’t they used to entertain guests? Wasn’t this a little too much?
The old lady sneered, “It’s good enough that there’s food to eat. Don’t you see how difficult your second brother’s life is? You still want to eat pastries and sweets? In your sweet dreams.”
Lu Sanzhu opened his mouth and wanted to say that Shu Yu was rich.
However, when he looked up, he saw Shu Yu, and the latter revealed a bright smile. Lu Sanzhu suddenly shuddered. She had the same smile when she went to the Ruan family.
He didn’t dare to provoke her.
Lu Sanzhu stuffed Baoya into Lanhua’s arms and said, “Help me look after
Then, he escaped by saying he needed to go to the toilet.
Lanhua was stunned for a moment. It was not until Baoya, who was in her arms, struggled to reach for the fruit platter on the table that she came to her senses and gave the toddler a piece of fruit.
Baoya took a bite, and it was so sour that her whole body trembled. Then, she threw the fruit in her hand to the ground and began to cry.
Lanhua hurriedly coaxed her, “Baoya, don’t cry, don’t cry.”
Sanya looked up and held Baoya’s hand, “Baoya, don’t cry. Look, look at my shoes. My second sister bought them for me. They’re new. Don’t they look good?”
Baoya cried even harder.
Sanya looked at Shu Yu helplessly. She felt the urge to cry as well.
Shu Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry. She patted Sanya’s head and said to Baoya, “If you don’t cry, I’ll give you something good to eat later.”
Baoya stopped, blinked, and asked, “Is it… Is it sweets?”
As expected ot Lu Sanzhu’s daughter, she remembered her father’s words very clearly.
However, when the other people present heard the conversation between the two, they all turned their heads to look at Shu Yu. Even Erniu and Dabao rushed over. Dabao used to be fierce to her, but now he had completely forgotten about their past grudges. His chubby little face trembled.
Shu Yu laughed, “It’s even more delicious than sweets. I guarantee you’ve never had it before.’
Shu Yu had indeed bought pastries and candy and was prepared to serve the guests today. However, the old lady also said that there was only so much food. The fourth aunt and Daya were not here yet. If they took those out now, these children would probably have finished it at this point.
It would be better to wait for everyone to arrive, and the younger ones would each get a little so that everyone could taste some sweetness.
Shu Yu felt that what the old lady said made sense, so she had no objections.
Upon hearing that there was something more delicious than sweets, Lu Sanzhu, who had left, ran back. He asked excitedly, “What is it? What is it?”
Shu Yu’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably..
