Quick Wear: The saints are too miserable, the host will never be soft-hearted

Chapter 228: Don’t Try to Sucking Blood from Adopted Sons and Daughters 11

Liu Lanlan secretly blamed Sanzhu for being unable to handle the situation. He had only been nagged by Old Lady Jiang for a while, and now he was giving in?! He hadn't informed her in advance, which was an even greater sin!

She asked why she ran away faster than a rabbit after breakfast today!

Old Mrs. Jiang looked at Lu Yi chewing sweet potatoes, and recalled her firecracker-like posture. She quickly retracted her gaze and laughed dryly, "Mom forgot. Tomorrow then! You come with me to the fields tomorrow."

After saying that, he left in a hurry, which surprised Liu Lanlan who was picking up dishes.

"Second sister-in-law, I understand why Mom doesn't dare to be aggressive with the eldest sister-in-law. She's too fierce, but why is she afraid of you? Don't you look more gentle than me?"

"Maybe Mom thinks I'm a bit aggressive from the bottom of her heart." Lu Yi said.

Liu Lanlan sighed deeply, "It seems that Mom thinks that among the three daughters-in-law, I am the most talkative and the easiest to bully."

She just expressed her feelings verbally. After all, if she wanted to get pocket money from the old lady, she had to be a little sweet-talking.

To put it another way, Mrs. Jiang is Sanzhu's biological mother, so she can be bullied if she wants. Anyway, Sanzhu is there to do all the dirty work, so she has never been bullied.

Liu Lanlan finished washing the dishes and was rubbing clothes in the sun. She looked up and saw Lu Yi coming out of the room.

How strange!

"Second sister-in-law? Why did you leave the room today? Are you going out?"

Liu Lanlan was puzzled. Her sister-in-law seemed quiet and would go into the house after dinner. She had not left the house once in more than half a month since she got married.

Because Jiang Erzhu sends a monthly allowance, the family doesn't ask his second sister-in-law to go farming with them, and even the rotation of housework has been exempted for half a year due to custom. Why did she come out before dinner time today?

"Yes, let's go out for a walk." Lu Yi turned around and closed the door, took out a small lock from his pocket and locked it with a click.

"Hey, second sister-in-law, who are you guarding against?" Liu Lanlan didn't think of herself, but her eldest sister-in-law and Old Mrs. Jiang appeared in her mind.

Seeing her gossipy face, Lu Yi said speechlessly: "Of course it's to prevent outsiders."

"Outsiders?" Liu Lanlan's expression changed. "You mean those two..."

Lu Yi nodded, pulled out the key and put it back in his pocket. "Second sister-in-law, you are straightforward and I won't hide it from you. I just got married and brought some dowry. Anyway, I don't feel safe leaving the door wide open. You have to be on guard against others."

"Yeah!"

Liu Lanlan didn't even bother to shake the laundry water off her hands. She stood up and rushed into her and Sanzhu's room.

Lu Yi stood there staring at the bubbles in the sun in a daze. She was not talking nonsense. The original owner sent two ungrateful people to school at that time. She earned every penny with gritted teeth and even borrowed a lot from her parents' home.

In order to pay back the money and continue to support their schooling, the original owner saved as much as possible, but the amount of money she had hidden was always decreasing. No matter where she changed the hiding place of the money, it was as if someone was secretly watching her.

If the money wasn't lost due to a thief living in the same house, then it would be a miracle.

There were only four people in the room. Excluding the original owner and Jiang Erzhu who was unable to get out of bed due to a leg injury, the answer was obvious. The original owner was confused by the situation and never doubted the two children he raised.

Lu Yi touched the key in her pocket to confirm, and suddenly remembered that she didn't bring her cloth bag. She had a lot of things to buy this time, and it would be too conspicuous if she brought it all the way back in front of the villagers.

Although there is a cloth bag in the space, but... it is better not to test whether Liu Lanlan is blind.

Lu Yi resigned himself to his fate and took out the key to open the lock. He picked up the forgotten cloth bag and just locked it when Liu Lanlan came out to lock the door.

After a click, she walked towards Lu Yi and sighed, "It's okay."

"Second sister-in-law, which family in the village are you going to chat with? Are you going to the town?" Liu Lanlan pointed to the cloth bag in her hand and said happily.

"correct."

"Let me go with you! We can go shopping together and chat to avoid getting bored." Liu Lanlan happily went back to unlock the door and took the money and cloth bag.

She moved quickly and in one go, "Second sister-in-law! Let's go!"

"The basin?"

Liu Lanlan followed Lu Yi's gaze towards the basin of bubbling clothes and took Lu Yi's arm nonchalantly. "Well, Sanzhu will help me wash them. Just leave them there."

When we arrived in town, there were a lot of people on the street, especially at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, where people were pushing their way in shoulder to shoulder.

Liu Lanlan was the first to step forward to inquire. After a while, she ran over and pulled Lu Yi in together. Her face flushed as she said, "Second sister-in-law, we've come to the right place today. The supply and marketing cooperative has just received red dates. They're huge and I heard they taste especially sweet! I have to buy more!"

Lu Yi looked over the crowd at the counter, distinguishing the various goods on display.

She didn't buy red dates because she didn't particularly like them. The five pounds of red dates in the space were enough, and there were also several bags of sealed crispy dates.

I didn't get to the front of the line until my legs were sore from standing. The continuous shouting was as if it was right next to my ears, deafening.

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Lu Yi's cloth bag had become much heavier. Most of the products she bought were specialty products of that era, such as the very famous but never-taster malted milk, and the sweet but not greasy authentic White Rabbit milk candy.

"Second sister-in-law, you spend money so lavishly!" Liu Lanlan exclaimed with a smile on her face, holding up the two kilograms of red dates she had snatched.

"You're not bad either."

Lu Yi recalled how Liu Lanlan looked when she was grabbing the red dates. She took out the money without blinking, and her momentum was as if she was going to buy the store. She actually attracted the attention of the counter clerk, otherwise they might still be squeezed in and unable to get out.

"You don't come across red dates of this quality every day. I'm thinking of buying more to bring back for my parents. This thing is the best for replenishing qi and blood, and it's just as good as brown sugar water. They'll be so happy when I get it back!"

Liu Lanlan walked and spoke with her head held high, like a general who had won a battle.

Lu Yi became thoughtful and decided that next time she went back to the original owner's parents' house, she would also bring some nutritional supplements back.

"Sister-in-law, let's have a bowl of noodles before going home. It's almost lunchtime." Liu Lanlan stopped in front of a small stall and swallowed.

"Okay, I happen to be hungry too."

Lu Yi smelled the fragrant aroma of white flour, took out some money from his pocket and handed it to the noodle stall owner, "Uncle, give me a bowl of noodles."

It just so happened that the supply and marketing cooperative had some change, so there was no need to break up the great unity that the original owner's parents had brought as a dowry.

Liu Lanlan also paid, and just as she sat down, she heard Lu Yi curiously ask, "Aren't you doing housework today? Mom and Dad are back from the fields. Have you prepared lunch in advance?"

"It's over! It's broken! I forgot about it!" Liu Lanlan slapped her head.

Lu Yi looked at the big bone noodles served by the noodle stall owner, picked up his chopsticks and blew on the hot air, "It's okay, eat quickly and maybe you can catch up when you go back."
