Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The old lady discussed with Lu Erbai as she ate, “Since you’re back, we should bring up the matter of Erya coming back and getting to know her relatives. It just so happened that the eldest daughter-in-law had returned from her mother’s house with her children. Tomorrow, we should invite those families over for a visit. Third brother, when you’re done eating, go and tell Dasong’s family. Don’t go missing again tomorrow.”
Lu Sanzhu slurped on his noodles and nodded perfunctorily, “Got it.”
As long as there was food, it was not a big deal to run errands.
The old lady felt speechless just seeing him like this. She quickly looked away and said to Lu Erbai, “I’ve also sent someone to tell your sister’s family. It’s the same for Daya. Speaking of which, we haven’t seen her for a long time. When she comes back tomorrow, let her stay at home for the night, so that she doesn’t have to work again when she goes back. She can also rest at home and not be tired out.’
At the mention of Daya’s hard life, Madam Ruan lost her appet.i.te for the oily noodles.
Lu Erbai, on the other hand, frowned, “Of course, it’s great if Daya comes back to stay. However, there are only two rooms in the house. I’m afraid there isn’t enough s.p.a.ce.”
It was still fine in the past, but now Erya was back. Daya was also married, so if she wanted to stay the night, they couldn’t just drive Zhang Shu back, right?
Unexpectedly, the old lady said, “Why not? I’ll go over to Dasong’s house and let Daya and Erya stay here. The two sisters can have a good chat too. As for Zhang Shu, since our houses are not far from each other, it’s the same to let him go back first.’
When Sanya heard this, she quickly raised her head, swallowed the noodles in her mouth, and said, “Me! And me! The three of us sisters want to talk.”
Dahu subconsciously wanted to say something, but when he remembered that he was not a sister, he sighed and continued eating his noodles.
The old lady smiled “Alright, you three have a good chat.”
In the past, she had felt sorry for the Zhang family and Zhang Shu because she felt that it was Daya’s belly that had failed to live up to expectations, causing the Zhang family to not have an heir even now.
However, she had now been successfully brainwashed by Shu Yu. Since Daya and her husband had yet to see a doctor, the old lady felt that it must be Zhang
Shu’s problem for their inability to conceive a child after two years of marriage.
With such thoughts in mind, even if Zhang Shu was honest and willing to work, the old lady still found him a little unpleasant to the eye.
She snorted coldly, and Lu Erbai didn’t say anything more. He did hope that
Daya could have a good rest when she came back.
With that decided, the old lady carried the plates and chopsticks back to the kitchen in satisfaction.
Talking about the problem with accommodation, Shu Yu thought of the problem of building a new room again.
This matter was rather urgent and had to be brought up on the agenda as soon as possible.
After she met her relatives tomorrow, the renovation could start.
That night, the entire family went to bed early. Perhaps it was because there were fewer things to worry about, but their mental conditions were much better.
Thus, the next morning, when Lu Dasong brought his wife, Madam Li, over to help, Madam Li, who had not seen Madam Ruan and the others for a few days, was clearly stunned.
It had only been a few days, and although Madam Ruan was still as thin and weak as before, she looked different. She looked… radiant.
It seemed that with Erya’s return, the second brother’s family was really becoming different.
This was the first time Madam Li had seen Shu Yu. She looked at the latter’s fair and clean face, her tall figure. She was as pretty as a flower. One could tell at a glance that she had been well brought up. Madam Li felt sour.
With this, Erya was the prettiest among the Lu family..
