Half a month later, Liuyue Village.
"Second sister!"
As soon as Lu Sheng drove the carriage into the yard, Lu Pao had already ran towards her happily with his short legs.
"Where's Xinxin?"
Lu Sheng smiled and caught him.
"Little sister is playing with Atom at Auntie's place. Second sister, where have you been? Why did it take you so long to come back?"
As he spoke, the little guy's eyes turned red.
"How can a man shed tears so easily?"
Lu Sheng pinched his face lightly, and asked with a smile: "Hasn't elder brother come back?"
Lu Paddle nodded, "I'm back, I stayed for a few days, finished harvesting the rice, and went back to town."
"Yeah?"
Lu Sheng glanced at the yard and saw that it was lush green inside, and the millet pepper she planted had already bloomed with small white flowers, so he was relieved.
She didn't care about the things in the carriage, and ran directly to the backyard to look at the pond. She was slightly relieved when she saw the crayfish and river crabs crawling around.
The lotus she put in the pond also grew well, and a lot of aquatic plants grew in the pond.
"Brother Liang and his sister-in-law come over every day to help water and fertilize the vegetables, and often drain the pond."
Lu Paddle, who followed, squatted on the bank and explained in a childlike voice.
"Let's go, let's treat Aunt Yu and the others to eat delicious food tonight."
As Lu Sheng said, he pulled up the paddle and led him towards the front yard.
After unloading all the things on the carriage, he ignored Lu Paddle who was dazzled, and only told him to look after the things, and went out directly.
I bought pork belly and pork ribs, eggplant and a handful of green vegetables at a small stall in the village, bought a chicken and two lotus roots, and was about to go home.
However, she had just walked a few steps when she heard a few women whispering behind her.
"I saw her driving a carriage back just now. Couldn't the carriage be given by a man?"
"I think it's likely to be nine out of ten. Otherwise, she is a girl, how can she get so much money?"
"If the He family has knowledge under the spring, I'm afraid they will die with peace of mind."
"What is there to be proud of when you exchange your body for money?"
Lu Sheng's footsteps paused slightly, she turned around expressionlessly, and looked at the women with cold eyes.
The few people seemed to be aware of it, and they all stopped talking.
"In exchange for your body?"
Lu Sheng sneered, she put the things in her hands aside, walked forward, opened her sleeves, revealing her white arms.
The most eye-catching point of red on it made several women bow their heads in silence for an instant.
"Don't use your dirty thoughts to judge others at will, and don't think that everyone is as miserable as you say."
She glanced at the women coldly, then turned and left with her things.
It's fine if she didn't hear some things, but now she said it in front of her, then she can't just let them spread rumors and make trouble.
"Second Sister, Brother Chuan is here, and he wants to take away the cloth you brought back!"
As soon as Lu Sheng arrived at the door, he saw Lu Paddle running out panting with an anxious expression on his face.
Lu Sheng's eyes turned cold, and he carried things in one hand and landed in the oar with the other into the yard.
"Yo, Ah Sheng is back?"
In his hand, Lu Chuan held some pieces of cloth that Lu Sheng bought for Lu Ran, and some food she bought for the two little babies. It seemed that he was ready to go out with things.
He glanced at the things in Lu Sheng's hand, swallowed and said, "Is this going to cook for brother?"
The news that Lu Sheng became a rich man recently had already spread throughout the village, so Lu Chuan was not surprised to see her buying so many vegetables.
He even looked like he wanted to stay and leave after dinner.
