Chapter 571 Returning empty-handed

After the four girls heard it, they hurried back to the Shu family's side, and a few people chatted, and immediately two of them went out.

This movement, even if Shu Yu didn't pay attention, he would inevitably see it.

She snorted lightly, and together with Hou Shi, washed the corn and pumpkin, ready to put them directly on top for steaming.

Shu Yu intends to prepare all the ingredients at one time. In this weather, it will be fine to put it at noon tomorrow. Mainly because I have to work tomorrow, I really don't have the energy to cook again.

They don't have oil, so the vegetables can only get some water, add some salt and boil them into soup to drink.

Hou was very happy, especially when the aroma of the food came out, it instantly aroused the greed in her stomach. Since she was imprisoned, she has never felt so good. Even if there were white-faced steamed buns given by the official on the way, to her, it was not as good as the meal in front of her.

Shu Yu asked her while burning the fire, "Did the Shu family make any trouble while I was away?"

"Where do they dare? The eldest girl and the fourth girl ran over and sneered at us. I ignored them, and they didn't dare to do anything, so they went back. The remaining two rooms for them were not cleaned up, the work was done. Don't do it, it's just arguing over there."

"What's the noise?"

Hou said contemptuously, "What else can we quarrel about, who is arguing about who to do things. The first lady, the second lady, and two young ladies, they thought this was the Shu's house in Dong'an, and they didn't want to do anything. They ordered Li They do things, but Auntie Li and Auntie Liu are not happy either, they both gave birth to sons for the Shu family.

The two aunts can't move, isn't there a second girl from a concubine and Aunt Xue who doesn't even have a daughter?

The second girl is cunning, and she quickly turned her hatred on Concubine Xue.

You Qi said that she was Shu Yu's adoptive mother, but she didn't even know how talented she was, which caused them to suffer a big loss just now.

Concubine Xue instantly became the target of public criticism, but she was not willing to work, so she wanted to pull others into the water. After going back and forth, there was a quarrel.

Shu Yu heard black lines on his face, "It's already at this juncture, and they are still doing this."

Hou nodded, "That's right, I don't even look at where this is, and I even put on airs."

She felt that the eldest lady, the head lady, was not as far-sighted as her concubine.

Shu Yu shook his head, "Don't pay attention to them, we'll take care of ourselves anyway."

"Um."

The three of them quickly cooked dinner and sat directly on the kitchen floor to start eating.

Halfway through the meal, the Shu family who went out to 'borrow' food came back, but they all came back empty-handed.

When the rest of the Shu family saw this, they made another noise.

Shu Yu listened while eating, which was quite interesting.

The Shu family wanted Shu Yu to have something to eat, but as soon as they entered the kitchen and met Shu Yu's cold eyes, they couldn't say anything. Don't dare to provoke her again.

The Shu family went back in despair. After Shu Yu and the others finished eating, the sky was completely dark.

They didn't have a candle and oil lamp either, and they had nothing to do in the dark, so the three of them returned to the room neatly.

After entering the door, Mr. Hou fastened the door bolt, took his daughter to spread the bed, and then got into the bed and fell asleep comfortably.
