Dress up as a farmer's wife from the Wang family and fight for the best with space

Chapter 514 Lu Xiaohong comes to get food

The division of labor was clear, and the village chief could no longer sit still for a moment, so he stood up and said goodbye.

He was going to the town to talk to Shopkeeper Wu about hiring a cook and purchasing things, as he needed him to keep an eye on things so he could feel at ease.

When the other villagers saw the village chief stand up to say goodbye, they also stood up and left.

The Lu family returned to peace. Lu Jianchuan felt a little sleepy at this time and turned back to his room to catch up on his sleep.

Gu Yunxi also yawned and fell into a deep sleep.

They slept until noon, when He Dachun's wife knocked on the door and called them to eat.

Lunch was also prepared by He Dachun's wife. It was much richer than breakfast, with fish, meat, and vegetables.

Maybe it was because he slept for half a day and ate little in the morning, so Gu Yunxi felt very hungry now.

Gu Yunxi found the food prepared by He Dachun's wife very delicious and ate two bowls of rice in one breath.

After putting down the bowl, she felt full and simply pulled Lu Jianchuan for a walk in the yard.

After walking for a while, Gu Yunxi felt that his stomachache was gone. He turned around and wanted to go back to the house. Just then, he heard the door open.

"Who is it?" Gu Yunxi asked subconsciously.

The person outside the door yelled, "You little dog slave, you are my aunt, why don't you open the door for me?"

Gu Yunxi was stunned, looked at Lu Jianchuan, and thought, isn't this voice their good aunt Lu Xiaohong?

It turns out that they are not at home. Why is Lu Xiaohong so rude when talking to He Dachun's family?

Just as he was thinking about it, He Dachun's wife hurried out of the kitchen with an apologetic look on her face.

"Master, Madam, maybe Aunt Lu is here. I'll go open the door."

He Dachun's wife seems to be a kind and gentle person. She has been in the Lu family for so long, but she has never been competitive and has done a lot of things silently.

Gu Yunxi knew her, and when he saw his servant being treated so rudely by Lu Xiaohong, he felt a little uncomfortable.

She waved her hands hastily and said, "Daughter-in-law Dachun, please go down first. I'll open the door."

He Dachun's wife was very surprised. She glanced at Gu Yunxi quickly, and seeing that she looked serious, she quickly lowered her head and stepped aside.

Gu Yunxi walked to the front door and opened it with a click.

Lu Xiaohong didn't even look at it clearly, and she started to curse: "You dog slave, you took a long time to open the door, and you are so rude to me... I..."

"Isn't this the aunt who broke off the relationship with our Lu family? Why is she coming to my house?" Gu Yunxi sneered and looked at Lu Xiaohong with a playful expression.

Lu Xiaohong held Xu Xiaobao's hand, her face froze, and the words she wanted to curse came to her lips, but she swallowed them back.

"Achuan, Achuan's wife, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me in advance so that your aunt could pick you up?"

Lu Xiaohong lived in the village and had long known that her nephew Lu Jianchuan had passed the imperial examination and had been awarded the position of editor in the Hanlin Academy.

As a village woman, she had no idea how high the official position of an editor in the Hanlin Academy was, but she knew that her nephew Lu Jianchuan was already an official.

Now seeing her nephew back, Lu Xiaohong smiled very fawningly, without any of her previous unreasonable behavior.

However, Gu Yunxi and Lu Jianchuan knew that it is difficult to change one's nature, and their aunt had only changed on the surface.

Gu Yunxi smiled faintly, stood at the door, and did not let Lu Xiaohong enter the house.

"By the way, aunt, why did you come here? Is there anything I can help you with?" Gu Yunxi suddenly asked.

She did not forget that before leaving Xijiang Village for the capital, her father-in-law had told her not to let Lu Xiaohong set foot in the Lu family.

Lu Xiaohong's smile froze, and she said, "I'm out of rice and flour at home. Come and get some."

After saying that, she seemed to be afraid that Gu Yunxi would question her, and added: "Big brother told me before he left that I can get everything I eat and drink from the Lu family."

Gu Yunxi frowned slightly, feeling that this was not a good idea. But at the moment, Lu Xiaohong had neither land nor the ability to go out to earn money.

After thinking for a while, she turned to He Dachun's wife and said, "Dachun's wife, how often should we give her food after we leave home?"

He Dachun's wife glanced at Lu Xiaohong with a dull look in her eyes, and lowered her head to answer: "Madam, my aunt came to get a bag of food just two days ago..."

A bag, a sack specially made by Gu Yunxi, which can hold ten kilograms of rice.

Ten kilograms of rice, if only Lu Xiaohong and Xu Xiaobao eat it, should be enough for them to eat for at least ten days or half a month, right?

Gu Yunxi's mind was racing. She felt something was wrong, so she stared at Lu Xiaohong and asked with a half-smile, "Aunt, how do you eat rice? Can you finish a bag in two days?"

Could it be that Lu Xiaohong secretly took out the rice that was taken from their Lu family and sold it in exchange for silver?

Hearing this, Lu Xiaohong hurriedly explained excitedly: "How to eat, how you eat, I will eat the same way!"

"It's just a small bag of rice, how much can it contain? It's not enough for Xiaobao and I. Look how skinny Xiaobao is!"

After saying that, Lu Xiaohong deliberately pushed Xu Xiaobao and asked him to take a step forward so that Gu Yunxi could have a good look.

However, seeing this, Gu Yunxi burst out laughing and said, "Aunt, Xiaobao is called thin when he looks like this???"

Xu Xiaobao's belly is round and his arms are as thick as other people's thighs. This is called thin. Could it be that Lu Xiaohong has some misunderstanding about thinness?

Lu Xiaohong muttered: "Xiaobao has indeed lost a lot of weight recently. He was even fatter before... Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you."

Lu Xiaohong turned to Lu Jianchuan again and said with a smile: "Ah Chuan, look at how thin your cousin Xiaobao is. Can you take pity on him and ask someone to bring me some rice and flour?"

Lu Jianchuan had a complicated expression when he heard this. It was not that he felt sorry for the rice and flour, but he felt like Gu Yunxi that the aunt in front of him was really stubborn and hopeless.

He didn't want to indulge her either, so he said coldly, "Aunt, please tell me first, how do you and Xiaobao eat a bag of rice weighing ten kilograms?"

"Tell us so that we can make plans in the future."

When Lu Xiaohong heard this, her face changed slightly. She always felt that Lu Jianchuan's eyes were looking at her with a cold and distant feeling, as if he could see through her lies.

She held onto Xu Xiaobao's hand tightly, and said with a stiff face, "Ah Chuan, what are you talking about? I'm your biological aunt, how come you're unwilling to give me some rice when I come to ask for it?"

"I won't tell you whether your parents are back or not. I'll tell your mother!"

Now, except for He Feng, everyone else in the Lu family, including her eldest brother, Old Man Lu, is difficult to talk to.

Lu Xiaohong wanted to find her elder sister-in-law He Feng. He Feng loved her so much in the past, so she would surely agree happily when she saw her asking for rice and flour.

However, Lu Jianchuan said coldly: "My mother hasn't come back yet. If you want to find her, come back next time."

"No, he didn't come back?" Lu Xiaohong was stunned. She stretched her neck and looked towards the yard without giving up.
