The next morning, Zhu Yu was dragged out of bed by Xiaoying. She did tell Xiaoying before going to bed last night that she had an important appointment with Aunt Lin today and she must not break it, and she must wake her up at all costs. But she never expected that this little maid would be so bold. After calling her several times without any response, she actually started to drag her away. She was dazed and was taken by the Sakura duo to wash and put on makeup. Now she was sitting at the dining table in a daze, one hand on her chin, and the other hand tapping the table again and again, she was in a daze, recalling her elementary school days.

Her mother did the same thing at that time. She couldn't wake her up, so she dragged her out of bed, helped her dress and pack her schoolbag, and forced her to eat breakfast and then follow her friends to school in a daze. Fortunately, she lived in a small town at that time, not far from the school, just through a small alley, otherwise she would have lost herself. She was really happy at that time.

Unfortunately, her parents divorced later. They were angry and didn't want her. She had no choice but to live with her grandparents. Her parents later got married and slowly seemed to forget the existence of their daughter. But she also grew up like a weed. In recent years, her grandparents have passed away one after another. She really became a weed, living a casual life without anyone to take care of her. When she was alone, she always persuaded herself that it was okay. Why couldn't she live well by herself? But to be honest, she really didn't have anything to miss about that world now. She had no house or car, and the rent was due next month. It can be said that she really had nothing and no worries. The only person she was a little concerned about was probably her good friend Liu Yuqian. Xiao Qiandeng didn't know whether she was doing well or not, and whether he would be heartbroken for her.

With a sigh, she picked up the porridge on the table and started to drink it. The warm, sweet seafood porridge instantly healed her soul and body. After finishing a bowl of porridge, she was the lively Zhu Yu again.

Not long after the meal, Aunt Lin arrived. Today, Aunt Lin was wearing a dark green dress with dark leaves embroidered on it, which made her look calm and reserved. Zhu Yu recalled that Aunt Lin seemed to have always dressed in this style. She and Zhu Qiaoqiao, one in black and one in white, looked a bit like the Black and White Devils.

Aunt Lin looked a little depressed today. After she told her about the two farms they were going to, she left. Zhu Yu didn't care too much. After all, Aunt Lin always looked calm, reserved and serious. After she told the Sakura duo to arrange the itinerary, she went to the inner room to change into light men's clothes. The group set off for the two farms in a mighty manner. In the carriage, the Sakura duo looked at the young lady who was resting in seclusion and exchanged glances with each other. They took something out of their sleeves. Soon, there was a rustling sound in the carriage, accompanied by a very light laugh from time to time. Zhu Yu opened his eyes and saw that the two little maids were huddled in front of him and playing with ropes. A rope tied together with two sections was transformed into various forms between the two people's fingers, which was very interesting. Zhu Yu spent most of her childhood living with her grandparents. In order to make her life more colorful, the two old people played many small games with her that only the older generation knew, such as this rope flipping game, in which she was considered an expert. After watching for a while, Zhu Yu couldn't help but feel itchy. She coughed lightly to attract the attention of the two people. When they were embarrassed to put away the rope, she said, "How about taking me with you?"

Sakura and the other girl immediately broke out into happy smiles on their faces. Sakura even stretched out the rope pattern that she was about to flip for Xiaohua in front of Zhu Yu. The three of them were having a lot of fun laughing. Zhu Yu even showed them a few tricks that they had never seen before, which made them praise her.

There were laughter and joy inside the carriage, and spring was in full swing outside.

As they walked to the outskirts of the city, getting farther and farther away from the city gate, Xiaoying suddenly covered her stomach and hurriedly called to Zhu Yu, "Miss, I can't take it anymore. My stomach hurts. I need to go to the toilet."

Hearing this, Zhu Yu quickly asked the driver to stop the carriage. As soon as the carriage stopped, Xiaoying rushed out like an arrow. Zhu Yu looked at the scenery outside the window and decided to get off the carriage to take a walk and stretch her body. Accompanied by Xiaohua, she took the carriage as the starting point and strolled around. Just as she walked a short distance, she heard a shout from deep in the path shaded by the woods: "Little beast, where are you going to escape to? Hand over the bun in your hand." "Yes, hand over the bun quickly, or my brother will beat you to a pulp!"

Judging from the sound, the party asking for steamed buns should be two people. Zhu Yu waved to Fugui and the others, and the four followers immediately walked over here. Zhu Yu also took Xiaohua and walked towards the direction of the sound.

When she got closer, she found that two young beggars were trying to snatch the steamed bun from another younger beggar. The little beggar was lying on the ground, dirty and ragged, with one of his small black hands tightly protecting a steamed bun. His big eyes were firm and bright. Zhu Yu thought for a moment and thought, it's just a matter of a steamed bun. She could still help, so she said, "Stop arguing. I'll give each of you a steamed bun. You two take the buns and leave quickly!"

When the two beggars heard Zhu Yu's voice, they turned around and saw that she was about to curse. Then they saw that she was followed by four tall and strong followers, so they put away their arrogant faces. The beggar who was slightly taller bowed and said with a flattering look on his face: "Okay, okay, thank you, thank you." After waiting for a while, he took the steamed buns that Xiaohua had taken back from the car, spat at the little beggar on the ground, and staggered away.

Zhu Yu took out two pieces of cakes that he had secretly stuffed into his sleeves this morning, handed them to the little beggar on the ground, and said to him gently, "Here are some for you."

The little beggar looked at her for a while before he lowered his guard and took the snack from her hand. When Zhu Yu was about to stand up, the little beggar grabbed her sleeve, which scared her. Fugui rushed over and pushed his upper body to the ground again: "How dare you, little beggar! How dare you touch our lady's clothes!"

"Fugui, don't be like this." Zhu Yu didn't stand up immediately, but just said something to Fugui.

"Sister, please let me follow you. They will come back after you leave. I can't even keep the things in my hands and will be beaten. Please be a good person and help me." The little beggar didn't dare to move forward. He knelt on the ground, begging timidly and kowtowing to Zhu Yu.

With the previous incident with the white-clothed male ghost in mind, Zhu Yu was still a little wary. She asked, "Where is your home? Do you have any relatives?"

"My master and I have lived in this deep mountain all year round. Some time ago, my master said he was going up the mountain to find something to eat, but he never came back. I went out to look for him several times but couldn't find him. Later, the gang found out that I was alone in a house, so they occupied my house and forced me to beg like them, but I had to give them everything I got. Please be kind enough to take me in. I can do anything." As the little beggar said this, he was about to kneel down and kowtow to Zhu Yu. Zhu Yu stopped him and told the followers behind him to take him with them first and see if they could arrange a job for him when they got to the farm. This was considered to be the utmost kindness.

The little beggar on the ground breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her words. He got up from the ground and followed Zhu Yu's followers to the carriage behind. When passing by Zhu Yu, he kept a distance from her for fear that his dirty clothes would touch her. He was very polite.

Zhu Yu didn't take this little episode seriously. The convoy continued to move forward for a while and finally reached its destination.

This is a farm not far from the outskirts of Beijing. Aunt Lin told her before she came that the land of this farm belongs to her, and her father is loved by the emperor, so all the land under their family's name is exempted from taxes, so they only have to bear some labor costs and miscellaneous expenses, and the annual income is still relatively good.

Because the family has other businesses that require a lot of effort, they only grow some easy-to-care-for crops here. There is a manager, an accountant, and four or five long-term workers. During the busy farming season, a few temporary workers are hired, and the staff is relatively simple.

Zhu Yu looked at the tightly closed door in front of him and signaled his follower to knock on the door, but after knocking for a long time, no one came to open the door.
