Chapter 46
Xu Yin was carrying a big log, and someone made way for her. She saw the young man who was beaten in the mud. He was unrecognizable. His body and face were covered with mud, tears and snot.
He nodded at Shen Wu.
It was the gangster who came.
Shen Wu blinked and asked the people around her how this happened.
Aunt Feng was very kind-hearted, “The young man asked about your mother-in-law when he entered the village!”
“He said he liked Lu Sulan and fell in love with her at first sight, oh my…”
“Then he found out about your mother-in-law and called your mother-in-law Lanlan… You didn’t hear it, it was so affectionate.”
Shen Wu was very upset. She didn’t expect this to happen when she reported her mother-in-law’s name.
Old Lady Feng and Old Lady Lu didn’t get along well. She was very enthusiastic when she talked about it, and even popularized science to the newcomers.
Until the team leader ran over.
“Don’t beat them anymore!”
“If you beat them again, someone will die!”
Old Lady Lu was so angry that she didn’t listen to these.
The team leader was so angry that he shouted, “Old Lady Lu! If you beat him again,
I will deduct your family’s work points!” Suddenly, Old Lady Lu stopped and said, “Team leader, please help me! He is slandering my reputation.”
The team leader remembered who came to complain, and was stunned for a moment, “Lu Sulan is it you?”
Old Lady Lu was old, and few people called her by her full name. Most of them called her Old Lady Lu.
Those who had a grudge against her called her Old Concubine Lu. Most people who had a grudge against her called her the latter.
“I won’t change my name, my name is Lu Sulan, we are from the same village, and I married someone from our village, too. Captain, I held you in my arms when we were little! You are useless, you peed on my hand.”
The captain coughed repeatedly, “Don’t say anything unrelated, tell me what happened?”
“This young man, you are so ignorant, what nonsense are you talking about, like me, Lanlan…”
“He likes me, but I don’t like him!”
The young man who was pressed into the mud struggled to raise his head, he couldn’t see clearly in front of him, and spit out a mouthful of mud to prove himself: “I… I don’t like her!”
“I like that Lu Sulan… not her!”
Someone said, “There is only this one Lu Sulan in our village! The young people don’t even know her name. You don’t like her, how do you know?”
“There is, someone…”
“Bang!”
A piece of mud fell into his mouth steadily and ruthlessly, and he fainted immediately.
Everyone looked at Xu Yin.
With so many people staring at her, she looked calm, “My hand slipped, accidentally.”
Such a precise slip!
“Captain, you have to make the decision for me. I haven’t done anything to let down my old man Lu!”
“Don’t think I like him just because he’s young. He’s not as good-looking as old man Lu!”
The man on the ground heard the voice vaguely and struggled to look up, but he had already used up all his strength. He rolled his eyes and lay flat on his back.
“He’s not going to die, is he?”
Seeing the chaos, the veins on the captain’s forehead were jumping. “Hurry up, send him to the clinic, don’t let anyone die.”
Everyone helped to pull the young man away.
A group of people teased Old Lady Lu and dispersed after a while.
The young man was beaten up and covered in mud. Old Lady Lu, who beat him, was almost like rolling in the mud, but she was in high spirits.
She said to Shen Wu, “Don’t think you’re the only one who looks good. I was also a beauty when I was young. Now I’m almost 60 years old, and there are still young people who are attracted to me!”
“You’re not as good as me at this age!”
Shen Wu…
She thought about the gangster coming, but she didn’t expect it to turn out like this.
She didn’t dare to tell the truth of the matter now.
She smiled, “Mom, you’re right, or your charm is so strong that no one can match it.”
Old Mrs. Feng sneered, “The young man said he wasn’t looking for you.”
“If he wasn’t looking for me, would he look for you, an old vegetable helper? Your name is Lu Sulan!” Old Mrs. Lu straightened her body, “You’re just jealous of me!”
Old Mrs. Feng couldn’t stand Old Mrs. Lu’s smug look. Looking at Shen Wu’s big basket of mushrooms, she suddenly reached out and grabbed a handful, “I just told you, give me some reward!”
After that, she left without waiting for Shen Wu to speak.
“Hey, it’s poisonous…”
I don’t know if she was afraid that Old Mrs. Lu would chase her, Old Mrs. Feng turned around and disappeared.
Shen Wu also felt a bit of a headache.
It was such a mess.
Mrs. Lu was angry at the gangster for slandering her reputation, and then she was proud that she was liked by young people at her age.
Shen Wu and Xu Yin knew everything and were picking poisonous mushrooms in the kitchen.
There were more than ten poisonous mushrooms in a basket.
Shen Wu even took it to Yang Maimiao’s house to ask.
Yang Maimiao checked it out, “These are all poisonous. It’s not fatal to eat them, but you will feel dizzy and see chicken legs, braised pork, and sometimes monsters in the mountains!”
“When you cook, don’t taste it, just cook more. Forget it, or I’ll pick some for you.”
Yang Maimiao was enthusiastic. It was indeed the first time for Shen Wu to cook all these mushrooms. He didn’t know what Long Yujiao had put in it. He nodded, “Maimiao, then I’ll leave it to you.”
“I ate your candy.” Yang Maimiao smiled.
After saying hello to her mother, she asked Shen Wu, “I just heard that someone came to see your mother-in-law. What’s going on?”
“This is a family matter. I can’t say it. You can ask your mother when you go back.” It’s not that Shen Wu didn’t want to say it, but Yang Maimiao was also in the car that day. If she said it, she would probably understand what happened in an instant.
If she didn’t say it, Yang Maimiao didn’t get entangled, but asked Shen Wu, “Lu Xuan is not at home, right?”
“He’s not here. There’s no work in the fields. The team leader has assigned him something else. He went to work in the canal.”
Yang Maimiao looked relieved.
Shen Wu didn’t understand why everyone was so afraid of Lu Xuan. It seemed that Lu Xuan had done something, but no one told her. She would wait to ask Lu Xuan herself.
Yang Maimiao picked out the mushrooms that were picked for her and picked out two more. “If I don’t pick them out, the whole family will have dreams. I guess they will have to be sent to the health center for infusion.”
If the whole family fainted, Shen Wu didn’t dare to think about what Old Lady Lu could do to her. She would be the sinner of the whole family!
As for whether Long Yujiao did it on purpose, we will know after trying it during the meal…
“Maimiao, how about this peach cake?”
Yang Maimiao wanted to refuse, but Shen Wu was firm, “Thanks to you for helping me today, otherwise, I would get a basket of poisonous mushrooms and I would be scolded to death.”
“My mother-in-law will wash it soon. I won’t keep you here. We can play together another day.”
Yang Maimiao didn’t want to see Mrs. Lu. She took two pieces of peach cake and left. Biting the sweet peach cake, although Lu Xuan was not a good person, his wife was really good!
What a pity! Marrying such a man!
Shen Wu looked at the selected mushrooms and looked at Xu Yin.
The two looked at each other without saying anything, but just nodded slightly, and understood each other’s meaning.
For lunch, Shen Wu fried a few plates of mushrooms. They were cut very miscellaneously, and it was hard to tell what kind of mushrooms they were. Then she steamed the two-grain steamed buns and cooked mung bean soup.
The various wild mushrooms were fried and very fragrant. The smell made people drool.
The Lu family members who went to work also came back.
“Fragrant! Third sister-in-law, what did you make today?” Lu Laoliu shouted while lying in the kitchen.
Shen Wu: “I went to the back mountain to pick mushrooms and fried a few plates. Wash your hands and eat.”
Everyone went to wash their hands.
Shen Wu and Xu Yin had already brought out the food. “Although it rained the past two days, it’s still very hot today. I cooked some mung bean soup to cool off.”
The fragrant mushrooms, the hot steamed buns made of two-grain flour, and a bowl of mung bean soup, no one was dissatisfied.
Seeing the delicious food, Old Man Lu was in a good mood, “Okay, not bad!”
“Did something happen when I was away this morning?”
“I just entered the village, why do I feel that everyone looks at me a little strangely?”
It was quiet all around.
Li Ping opened her mouth but didn’t say anything.
Old Lady Lu took a bath and changed her clothes. She was in great spirits. “Nothing happened. A young man recognized the wrong person.”
No one mentioned this at the Lu family’s table, but in Laoya Village, the lively lunch at noon was all brought by the Lu family.
“I’ve lived for so many years, and I’ve never seen an eighteen-year-old boy chasing an old lady!”
“Young people are bold. I heard it. Lan Lan’s scream was
so disgusting…” Everyone lowered their heads to eat, and no one spoke. Shen Wu thought about the poisonous mushrooms and observed Long Yujiao from time to time.
Perhaps Long Yujiao was also observing her, and suddenly she looked up, and their smiling eyes met-
