My best friend is living a famine-stricken life; you're going crazy, I'm farming.

As soon as Yang Fenglan stepped out of the city gate, she encountered a driver from Qingshui Village who was driving an oxcart. The fare was three copper coins per trip, so she chose to take the cart.

Back in the village, Yang Fenglan first went to check the wheat fields and saw Wang Guihua and Wang Shi watering the fields from afar.

She didn't disturb the two of them while they were working and went home in a good mood.

Shen Yu was not at home.

Yang Fenglan went straight to the kitchen to start a fire and cook.

With no vegetables or meat at home, Yang Fenglan wasn't in the mood to cook anything delicious. She made a millet porridge and then took out the eggs that Grandma Xu had given her yesterday to make a steamed egg.

Shen Yu returned just as the meal was finished.

"Xiaoyu, dinner's ready." Yang Fenglan ladled the porridge into a slightly larger bowl.

"I'm not eating." Shen Yu didn't even glance at Yang Fenglan before entering the west room.

In the past, she could always stay in the west room and not come out because Zhou Jingyi was not there.

Now, Zhou Jingyi is lying in the house. She doesn't want to be in the same room with him, so she always goes out, and no one knows what she's doing.

As for not eating?

Yang Fenglan asked, "Did you eat at any restaurant?"

"Just mind your own business," Shen Yu's impatient voice came from inside the house.

Before Yang Fenglan transmigrated, Shen Yu treated the original owner of this body in this way.

At first, she thought that the female lead's character was just naturally rude.

Later, it was discovered that she was only like that to the original owner of the body; she was polite and kind to outsiders.

Treat people differently based on their status.

Yang Fenglan: Don't be angry, don't be angry.

Just you wait and see how I drain you dry.

Since Shen Yu wasn't eating, Yang Fenglan divided the steamed egg into two portions, giving one to Zhou Jingyi and keeping the other for herself.

After filling her stomach, Yang Fenglan took Zhou Jingyi's portion to the west room.

—If we leave Shen Yu to take care of the patient alone, she might not be able to stand it for more than a couple of days and want to run away again, and then she will be the one in trouble.

As soon as Yang Fenglan entered the room, she saw the bed sheets and blankets thrown in the corner, as well as the clothes and pants that she had changed Zhou Jingyi out of, all piled up haphazardly in one place.

Shen Yu was sitting on the other side of the bed, embroidering.

After feeding Zhou Jingyi his meal and medicine, Yang Fenglan put the dirty clothes into her basket and called to Shen Yu, "Xiao Yu, let's go wash the clothes."

Unsurprisingly, the answer was: "No, you can go by yourself."

When the original owner of the body refused, she felt too embarrassed to ask again and took on everything herself.

In short, within the Zhou family, Shen Yu had absolute freedom of speech and action.

However... now, her freedom is over.

"Xiaoyu, you don't know, I went to fetch water to irrigate the fields early this morning, and there were so many people fetching water by the river. I heard a lot of people talking about you..."

Yang Fenglan looked embarrassed, but finally gritted her teeth and said, "They all say you are ungrateful. They keep saying that you wanted a divorce as soon as Jingyi broke his leg. They also say that you can know a person's face but not their heart. I really can't believe you are this kind of person."

"That's utter nonsense!" Shen Yu tried to cover up her guilty conscience by raising her voice.

"That's right, that's what I told them too, and I almost got into a fight with those guys. Xiaoyu, in my opinion, to shut those gossips up, we should go do the laundry together. It'll also let those talkative people see that our Xiaoyu isn't that kind of person!"

Shen Yu stopped embroidering and looked at Yang Fenglan.

"Xiaoyu, even if you don't fight for the steamed bun, you have to fight for your pride. I know you're not that kind of person, but others don't." Yang Fenglan continued to coax her.

“Xiaoyu, what your mother said makes sense.” Zhou Jingyi turned to look at his wife. Although he was reluctant to let his wife do the laundry, his mother was right.

Shen Yu hesitated for a moment, put down the handkerchief in her hand, and forced a smile. "Mother, it's not that I don't want to go, I just wanted to finish embroidering the handkerchief first. Since you've said so, I'll go wash it."

"Come on, I'll go with you. I want to see who dares to gossip now. I'll tear their mouths apart!" Yang Fenglan said fiercely.

Zhou Jingyi and Shen Yu were both startled: Mother never dared to speak loudly before, how could she shout and tear someone's mouth apart?

Zhou Jingyi: "Xiaoyu, look how good your mother is to you."

Yang Fenglan: Yes, look how good I am to you.

Shen Yu: "..."
