The general's wife knows medicine

Chapter 38 Lu Xinyu

When they returned home, Tang's mother and Liu Yeling were cooking.

"Hey, is there any lunch today? What should we eat? My aunt is here, will there be something delicious today?" Seeing that there was little smoke coming out of her house, Lu Xinyu happily jumped into the house.

"Look at yourself, what do you look like?" Liu Yeling came out of the kitchen and saw Lu Xinyu jumping towards the kitchen, and she shouted at him loudly.

"Mom, what do you think I look like?" Lu Xinyu didn't even look at Liu Yeling and went straight to the kitchen.

"Aunt, you're back! Long time no see. Xinyu missed you so much." Then she gave Tang's mother a hug.

Liu Yeling covered her eyes, unable to bear to watch. How could this be a girl?

Tang's mother was stunned by the hug. It was the first time she met such a warm person. Although this was her niece, she was still a little uncomfortable.

"Yes, is that so? Aunt also misses Xinyu." Tang's mother said blankly.

"Is that so? It's my eldest aunt who likes me the most, unlike my mother." After saying that, he did not forget to look at Liu Yeling with resentment.

Liu Yeling was so angry that her face turned red and her neck became thick.

This damn girl, if it wasn't for her father-in-law protecting her, she would have hung her on the beam for three days and three nights.

Lu Xinyu had no idea that her mother had such a deep grudge against her, and she was still trying to be nice in front of Tang's mother.

Tang Peipei's impression of Lu Xinyu is that she is a little bit naughty.

Tang Peipei went to the living room and accompanied Chen Cuihua to play with Xiaotuanzi.

Liu Yeling really couldn't stand Lu Xinyu, so she kicked her out of the kitchen.

Lu Xinyu had no choice but to go back to the living room. She was very happy to see a new little kid in the house.

"Oh, is this my cousin's son?" Lu Xinyu picked up the little boy.

Chen Cuihua was afraid that she would be careless and drop the little girl, so she quickly protected her and snatched the little girl from Lu Xinyu's hands.

"Don't be afraid, dear. Grandma will protect you." After coaxing the little girl, she said to Lu Xinyu, "Lu Xinyu, stay away from the little girl."

Lu Xinyu was not annoyed. She smiled and teased Xiaotuanzi, "Oh, you call me Xiaotuanzi. I am your aunt. Come on, smile at me."

Tang Peipei looked at the heartless Lu Xinyu, thoughtfully.

It's so strange. No one in the family has told Lu Xinyu about her own affairs, so why does she insist that Xiaotuanzi is her child?

Is it a guess? But that shouldn't be the case! Although Lu Xinyu is only ten years old, in ancient times, ten-year-old girls were still sensible. Who would guess that an unmarried person would have a child?

Tang Peipei looked at Lu Xinyu with a scrutinizing gaze, which made Lu Xinyu feel a little uncomfortable. She regretted having spoken too quickly.

But Lu Xinyu was afraid of being exposed, so she pretended to be calm and teased the little girl.

Tang Peipei looked at it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so she stopped worrying about it and decided to look at it later.

Liu Yeling and Tang's mother cooked four dishes and one soup: an old pumpkin soup, stir-fried cabbage, pickled vegetables and meat, stir-fried lentils, and stir-fried wild vegetables. The staple food was steamed corn bread.

Lu Xinyu took a look and said, "Finally, there is meat to eat. Grandpa and grandma, come and eat."

The family sat around the table, talking and laughing as they finished the meal.

Tang's mother thought that her parents would scold her after she came back, but she didn't expect that the two old people were only angry at Tang Ren's behavior. They didn't say that she was wrong, and instead comforted her.

Tang's mother finally felt relieved.

After dinner, Tang's mother took Xiaotuanzi to take a nap, while Tang Peipei took Lu Xinyu and asked her to accompany him for a walk.

After what happened just now, Lu Xinyu was actually not very willing to do it, but she couldn't find an excuse, so she had to agree.

I learned from Lu Xinyu that the house they live in now was built by their ancestors.

It was a mud house with a tiled roof, but because it had been there for so long, they had repaired it several times.

The yard is not big, but there is a backyard where some vegetables are planted and there is a chicken coop with five or six chickens.

Lu Xinyu said that chickens used to lay five or six eggs every day, but as the weather turned colder in winter, the chickens laid fewer eggs.

They only eat pork once a month, or sometimes once every two or three months, but they can eat eggs every two days.

Lu Gang saved some money when he was young, but he spent a lot of it when he got sick. The family had six or seven acres of land, but because of the lack of labor, Lu Lifeng could only farm at home to ensure the tax revenue and household expenses every season.

Liu Yeling would often do some needlework and take it to the county town to buy to supplement the family income.

Lu Xinyu felt sad when she thought about the drought next summer, but she was only ten years old and could not do anything, nor could she say it directly.

The appearance of Tang Peipei this time gave her an opportunity.

She knew Tang Peipei's future, and she also knew that if her cousin knew that they were having difficulties in life, she would definitely help them.

She told Tang Peipei everything about the situation at home, hoping that Tang Peipei could help them.

Tang Peipei did not disappoint her.

At night, Tang Peipei, her mother and little Tuanzi stayed in Lu Xinyu's room. Lu Xinyu and Liu Yeling squeezed into Chen Cuihua's room and slept on the same bed with Chen Cuihua. Lu Gang, Lu Lifeng and Lu Zidong slept in the same room.

Before going to bed, Tang Peipei told her mother about the situation of the Lu family.

"Mom, do you think it's okay to let grandpa and his family go on a long trip with us?" Tang Peipei looked at the roof.

She likes this family and she needs help when she goes out. It would be great if her uncle and others could go with her.

"I don't know about that. Your grandpa is in poor health, and your grandparents are old and can't stand the hard work!" Tang's mother also wanted to be with her parents, but she was worried that their bodies couldn't take it.

"Mother, why don't you ask them tomorrow? If they are willing, we can go together. If not, I will leave some money for them. It would be best if they can build a brick house so that they can live more comfortably."

Tang's mother: "Okay, that's it."

The next day, while everyone was having breakfast together, Tang Peipei told the Lu family what the mother and daughter had thought last night.

Chen Cuihua just looked at Lu Gang, and Lu Gang remained silent.

Lu Lifeng was tempted. Since his niece could earn so much money, she could lead a good life with them.

Liu Yeling didn't really want to go, because her parents' home was in the next village and she felt a sense of belonging here.

But Lu Xinyu was obviously excited, it seemed that what was supposed to come had finally come.

In her previous life, this cousin lived a wealthy life by relying on her own abilities. Later, she became a general's wife and also had great medical skills.

Unfortunately, when my cousin came in the previous life, they chose to leave some money. My grandparents built a brick house and were envied by the whole village, but so what? There was a drought. No rain fell for half a year. The land was barren. No matter how good the house was, it had to be abandoned. The whole family fled. My grandparents died on the way.

What kind of people are they? They don't even spare the dead.

In the end, she was the only one left in the family.

Maybe she was lucky. When she was at her wit's end, she met her cousin and saved her life.

But she survived, but her grandparents, parents and younger brother are all gone.

In this life, she had to let her family leave with her cousin no matter what.
