A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!

Chapter 40: The Water and Soil in the Mountains Can Support People

The Lu family carried the fruits and vegetables out and gave them to the maid to wash, while they took the opportunity to return home.

A pair of newly made shoes was taken out from the box.

The shoes have a knitted thousand-layer sole, a black satin upper, a red cloth lining, and a navy blue silk trim.

The stitching is solid and fine, and the navy blue piping is matched with the black satin upper, which is so eye-catching and decent.

Mr. Lu raised the shoes and looked at them for a long time, sighing several times.

The girl from the Lu family next to her couldn't help but ask.

"Mom, what are you doing? Didn't you ask me to make shoes for Aunt Jiao?"

The Lu family sighed again, "Such nice shoes, I have never worn them on weekdays, but I have to give them to an outsider, I feel so sad!"

The daughter of the Lu family said, "Since you are reluctant to part with them, why don't I make you another pair of inferior cloth shoes, and you can keep these shoes."

The Lu family shook their heads and said, "These shoes are made according to Lao Jiao's pattern. They don't fit me!"

"Besides, Lao Jiao is shaking next to the old lady. The old lady seems to have suddenly become powerful. If our Fu'er hadn't received the pills given by the old lady, his mouth would have been rotten for who knows how long! Although he is better now, if he encounters something again in the future, won't he have to ask Lao Jiao for help?"

The Lu family’s daughter smiled.

"Isn't this something that you think clearly about, mother?"

The Lu family also laughed, "I think I understand. It's a pity that you are good at sewing, but you can't find a good future!"

She was a capable person beside Mrs. Ji, and originally wanted to find a job in the sewing room for her daughter.

But ever since the old man passed away, Mrs. Ji has been frugal and life in the sewing room has not been easy.

Not only was the monthly salary reduced by half, but even the fabrics and needles had to be checked more carefully than before, for fear that the people in the sewing room might have taken advantage of the situation!

Mr. Lu spoke a few more words to his daughter, found a piece of cloth, wrapped the shoes, and put them in his arms.

He went straight into the mansion and came to the old lady's yard.

The old lady's courtyard is now strictly controlled, so the Lu family can only ask the gatekeeper to inform.

After a while, Aunt Jiao came out.

When he saw the shoes sent by the Lu family, he smiled.

"Oh! I thought it was just a joke, but I didn't expect that you actually made shoes for my old lady!"

The Lu family smiled and said, "Sister Jiao helped my family a lot, but it's just a pair of shoes, it's not worth much!"

"If Sister Jiao likes it, I'll ask my girl to do more!"

Madam Jiao asked with a smile, "How is your little grandson?"

"Alright, alright! Thanks to Sister Jiao! Thank you, old lady!"

Madam Jiao nodded again, "Yes, the old lady is kind-hearted, but she can't bear to see people suffer. When we go back to the farm, the farmers will want to send our caravan off two miles away!"

As Madam Jiao spoke, she turned around and shouted towards the yard, and a little girl came out smilingly, carrying a small basket.

This small basket is not much bigger than an adult's palm, and it contains two melons.

Madam Jiao handed the small basket to the Lu family.

"Big sister of the Lu family, this is what we brought from the farm. Take it home and use it to entertain the children."

The Lu family declined a few times, but finally took it with a smile on their face.

Only then did he say goodbye to Madam Jiao and returned home in a hurry.

The two melons were cut into eight pieces. Since the man and his son were not at home, two pieces were left for them.

The Lu family called their daughter-in-law and grandson to share the remaining property with their daughter.

After the little grandson finished eating one petal, he still asked for more. The Lu family gave him another one and couldn't help but talk about it with their daughter.

"No wonder Jin Ge'er likes it so much. The melons this time seem to be crispier and sweeter than those sold outside."

"I went to see Aunt Jiao. I thought they would become darker and thinner after going to that poor countryside with nothing to eat or drink. But who knew they would become whiter and fatter!"

"I guess the soil and water there are good for people..."

The Lu family's daughter also nodded, "This time the melon is indeed crisp and sweet, and the basket is also very beautiful!"

She asked the Lu family for the basket and prepared to use it to hold her sewing purse.
