Shu Yu strode in the direction he was pointing at. Lu Sanzhu stood rooted to the ground, stunned. He patted his mouth and followed her hurriedly.

Ruan Family Village was different from Shangs.h.i.+ Village. Shangs.h.i.+ Village was a mixed village, formed by many villagers who had fled from famine in the early years. In contrast, the Ruan Family Village was different. Although the village was not big, two-thirds of the villagers had the surname Ruan and the same ancestors.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Sanzhu felt extremely fl.u.s.tered from the moment he entered the Ruan Family Village. He kept looking left and right suspiciously, like a thief.

In comparison, Shu Yu had a clear goal and soon arrived at the Ruan familys door.

The door to the Ruan familys courtyard was ajar, which meant that someone was at home.

Just as Shu Yu was about to push the door open, she heard Old Lady Ruans voice from inside, Alright, alright. Ill cut some meat and send it to that unfilial daughter of mine, okay? Really, do we need to please them? Im her mother, and shes already found Erya. Whats there to fuss about the past?

As she spoke, Old Lady Ruan had already opened the courtyard door and almost b.u.mped into Shu Yu, who was standing at the door.

She was stunned for a moment. Then, she looked up and was about to scold the other party, only to see Shu Yus expressionless face.

Old Lady Ruan was surprised. The next moment, her expression changed, and she said sarcastically, Oh, isnt this Erya who just came back to the Lu family? Whats the matter, you finally remembered that were also your relatives and youre here to acknowledge us?

When she looked down and saw that Shu Yu wasnt carrying anything, her expression became increasingly unpleasant, Youre here to visit your relatives empty-handed?

Shu Yu didnt even look at her. She simply pushed her to the side and walked in.

Hey, you

Old Lady Ruan quickly followed her in and pointed at her back while cursing, Do you have any manners? To think you dont even greet your elders. Youre not mute, you know!

Shu Yu continued to ignore her. She looked at the courtyard in front of her.

Putting aside the brick house at the side, just the area of this courtyard alone was more than twice the size of the Lu family.

There was also a cart at a corner, the sound of cattle in the pen, thick quilts hanging on the bamboo pole, three or four fish in the big water tank on the left, and dried meat and mushrooms hanging under the porch.

Then, she looked at the two Ruan familys sons who had just come out of the living room. It was just as Lu Sanzhu had said. They were tall and strong.

Compared to the frail Lu Erbai, the two parties were like heaven and earth.

At the corner of their mouths were some cake crumbs. It was as if they were afraid that others didnt know how well the Ruan family was living.

They seemed to be quite happy living off the misfortune of the Lu family. The Ruan family had everything they had now because of the money they had earned from selling her.

Shu Yu looked around and saw an axe in the corner. She took it and weighed it in her hand.

Lu Sanzhu, who had just arrived at the entrance of the Ruan familys courtyard, was shocked. His eyes widened, and he quickly shrank his neck. She looked into the courtyard quietly, not taking another step in.

What was Erya trying to do?

This was also what Old Lady Ruan wanted to ask. She had been scolding Shu Yu, but the latter remained silent and did not respond. This made her feel embarra.s.sed and angry. She angrily ran in front of Shu Yu and blocked her way.

You wretched girl, Im talking to you. What are you doing here? You

Shut up, Shu Yu suddenly straightened her arm, and the axe in her hand almost hit Old Lady Ruans nose.

Old Lady Ruans face turned pale with fear. She took a step back and fell to the ground, almost peeing her pants..
