Chapter 58

Xu Yin glanced at her and said, “You are pregnant with the descendants of the Lu family, not mine.”

After that, she gave the pigeon in her hand to her brother, “Take this back.”

If they dragged on any longer, it would be time for lunch. Xu Yin’s younger brother probably had been specially invited by his family, so he didn’t want to stay here for lunch at noon. He picked up the pigeon and crossed his legs on the 28-inch bicycle and ran away.

Li Ping was frustrated and wanted to complain to Old Lady Lu for food. Seeing that Old Lady Lu’s face was not good, thinking about the experience of this old lady in the past two days, she decided not to go and get scolded again.

Old Lady Lu looked at Shen Wu and said, “Why don’t you go and cook quickly? What are you doing here?”

Shen Wu was very happy to have meat to eat, and she didn’t talk back to Old Lady Lu at all, “Okay, mother, I’ll go cook now? Those mushrooms are to be sent to the county town, and we are still eating beans today?”

When she heard the word beans, Old Lady Lu was not in a good mood.

How can a daughter-in-law eat beef and a mother-in-law eat beans?

She should not have been so eager to find a daughter-in-law in the first place. She chose these two families because other people were not tactful. Her sons were so good, but these two daughters-in-law were not easy to deal with.

Unlike Wang Hua, she said she couldn’t eat meat, and she wouldn’t let her touch the chopsticks.

The third son also had a bad temper to outsiders, but he spoiled his wife! The second son was better, he was knowledgeable and obedient.

As for Xu Yin, this daughter-in-law could not be beaten, and her son couldn’t beat her either.

Shen Wu and Xu Yin cooked. Everyone worked at noon and had to eat something dry. The noodles had to be rolled by hand, but they were noodles mixed with sweet potato flour. In addition to beans, she also fried an eggplant and finally made a cold cucumber.

Shen Wu loved to cook, whether it was meat or vegetables, and she loved to make a few different flavors. The food was the best.

She could be criticized in other places. No one in the Lu family could match her in cooking. But today was different. The food was good, but there was no meat.

Shen Wu got some yellow beef from Xu Yin and shared some with Lu Xuan, “Third brother, you’ve worked hard, you should eat some too.”

“I earned this by cooking for her.”

“I told you, if I have something delicious, I’ll think of you first.” She was going to have braised pork with Xu Yin tomorrow.

Lu Xuan coughed softly, “Okay, I won’t eat it, you eat it.”

There wasn’t much in total, but it was enough for her to have this intention.

Shen Wu put it in his bowl forcefully, “That won’t work, we are husband and wife, how can I bear you to work hard while I eat meat by myself.”

Xu Yin…

Are we all part of your play?

She would never say these words to death, but after thinking about it, if these words were said to her by Shen Wu, with her personality of liking beautiful women, well, she would feel full of energy, let alone men.

She reached out and picked up a chopstick of meat and put it in Lu Ye’s bowl.

Lu Laoliu looked at it and wailed, “Dad, Mom, I want to get married too!”

“Shut up, there’s no money at home!” said Mrs. Lu.

Lu Laoliu wanted to say that other families don’t need so much money to marry a wife, but our family’s reputation is too bad, no girl is willing to marry, so we can only pay more money, except that the fourth brother is favored by the Xu family, but such people are a minority. Lu Laoliu thought a lot, but didn’t dare to say it.

Lu Ye, who was favored, was very happy to eat beef.

After lunch, he took a nap for a while. Yang Maimiao asked her to find mushrooms again. Mushrooms are not always available. In the past few days, Shen Wu went into the mountains again and found two baskets of mushrooms in one day. Shen Wu was worried and called Yang Maimiao to distinguish the poisonous and non-toxic mushrooms.

Seeing the Yang family coming in, Old Lady Lu wanted to drive them out.

But Shen Wu said first, “Mom, I asked Maimiao to pick out the poisonous mushrooms for me. If someone else is poisoned like Long Zhiqing and Old Lady Feng, can you still bear it?”

Old Lady Lu’s mind came up with some… can’t think about it.

She shook her head quickly.

Reluctantly, she said to Yang Maimiao, “Come in.”

Seeing that Yang Maimiao and Shen Wu had such a good relationship, what was there for Long Yujiao to not understand? She was purely framed by Shen Wu. Not only was the poisonous mushroom not cooked into the meal, but she and she had been looking for mushrooms for a long time, and in the end, the poisonous mushroom was even in her bowl.

But no one believed her when she told others, and they thought she had wronged Shen Wu. Thinking of this, Long Yujiao was so angry that her teeth were about to break. Why was she so aggrieved?

No, she still wanted to take the exam to be a teacher!

I heard that she didn’t even finish elementary school, so she must not be as good as herself.

After thinking about it, Long Yujiao felt a little relieved.

“Yujiao, the team leader said to go to work tomorrow! If you rest any longer, your job will be given to others.” Someone passing by the Lu family’s door saw her in the yard and shouted.

He added, “Don’t be embarrassed. There have been cases of mushroom poisoning in our village. Last year, Old Lady Feng was threatening to take off her clothes!”

It would be better to mention this matter. If she did, she could imagine the looks people would give her when she went to work. Long Yujiao forced a smile.

When Yang Maimiao left, she happened to meet the Lu family who were leaving work. Lu Laoliu, who was following behind, was still talking about getting married and asking why his fifth brother hadn’t married Long Zhiqing yet. He never stopped talking.

When he saw someone at home, he smiled at Yang Maimiao.

He turned around and continued to honk until he found out about Lu Xuan and was kicked in the butt before he stopped talking.

Early the next morning, Shen Wu and Xu Yin got on Lao Zhou’s donkey cart to sell mushrooms. In addition to the two of them, there was Yang Maimiao. Of course, Xu Yin was still here to be Old Lady Lu’s spy.

Now she was getting more and more worried about Shen Wu as her daughter-in-law.

Only by being a good person and a bad person can the interests be maximized. Shen Wu did not mind being the person that Old Lady Lu hated. She even whispered to Xu Yin in private that she would take the initiative to propose a separation. Old Man Lu and Old Lady would not agree. Would she take the initiative to propose a separation after she reached a certain level?

Shen Wu got two baskets of mushrooms by herself, and Wang Hua also asked her and Xu Yin to sell the mushrooms. She went to work early in the morning.

The donkey cart arrived at the county town and went to the state-owned restaurant first.

Seeing that they had a small cart of mushrooms, “This is too much, we can’t collect it. There are many people sending mushrooms here recently. You can go to the purchasing station and see. There are more mushrooms there.”

The price at the purchasing station is cheaper.

There is no choice but to ask Uncle Zhou to continue driving the car to the purchasing station. The price at the purchasing station is six cents per pound. It’s not that Shen Wu has never seen a few cents during her growth. When she heard this price, she didn’t want to sell it.

Yang Maimiao had more experience in this area than she did, and she sold it very quickly, “The price is 6.5 cents if it’s sent to a state-owned restaurant, but they want less and have higher requirements.”

“This thing is not a rare thing. If the price of meat is high, you can’t buy it even if you want to.”

Since they were already here, Shen Wu simply sold some as well. Her two baskets sold for a total of 1.6 yuan, Wang Hua’s sold for 90 yuan, and Yang Maimiao’s sold for even more, 1.9 yuan.

Shen Wu was just trying to find a reason to treat Xu Yin to braised pork.

Xu Yin got off the car first, “I’m going to the hospital, don’t follow me.”

Shen Wu was confused and shouted, “Why can you monitor me but I can’t monitor you? Are you going to do something bad?”

Yang Maimiao was confused for a moment.

Uncle Zhou said, “Don’t worry about them. They can’t get lost.”

“Then I’ll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some hairbands.” Yang Maimiao said.

Shen Wu caught up with Xu Yin in front, “Do you want to eat braised pork?”

Xu Yin said, “I’m not lying. I’m really going to the hospital. I’ll eat it after I get to the hospital.”

“Are you not feeling well?” Shen Wu looked at her carefully.
