Lord Chu's Wife is Wild

Chapter 48: Rejection

“Lunch?”

Lu Sheng lifted her head and looked at the sky. It was past 3 pm, and dinner was almost ready.

“There’s no need for that,” she rejected. “I still have two children at home who have not eaten yet. Next time.”

Her attitude was indeed different from before. She was quite vengeful.

Chu Sihan sighed.

“You’re going back now?”

“Oh.”

She reluctantly responded.

“I’ll get Chu Yun to send you home.”

“There’s no need to. I’ll take the ox cart myself. I wouldn’t dare to trouble you.”

As she spoke, she walked past him without even turning back.

Chu Sihan’s gaze followed her back view until she disappeared into the crowd. Only then did he retract his gaze indifferently.

Chu Yun’s eyes darted around before he asked hesitantly, “Lord, is Miss Lu angry?”

Chu Sihan did not reply him. Instead, he smiled faintly and took the lead in walking.

The fact that she could say next time proved that she was not very angry.

When Chu Yun saw this, he hurried after him.

When Lu Sheng returned to the village, it was already evening.

Lu Jiang and Lu Xin were having dinner at the neighbor’s house.

The neighbor’s surname was Liang, and there were a total of four people: Aunt Yu, her son, her daughter-in-law, and her grandson. As for her husband, it was said that he accidentally fell from a high point when he was hunting a few years ago, and had died on the spot.

Aunt Yu was a kind person. Her son and daughter-in-law were good people. Seeing that her legs were weak, she did not let her do any heavy work. She usually stayed at home to help take care of her grandson.

Aunt Yu’s grandson was called Liang Yuan, and he was only three years old. He was chubby and likable.

The moment Lu Sheng arrived, she went straight for that apple-like face. She pinched his chubby face with both hands until it became deformed.

The little boy mumbled, “Jie Jie... Bad bad...”

Lu Sheng chuckled.

“Second Sister!”

Lu Jiang and Lu Xin also stood up happily and they stared at her with watery eyes.

“Ah Sheng, you’re late.” Aunt Yu smiled. “Your sister-in-law has just finished cooking. Hurry up and sit down with us to eat.”

“Why don’t I see Brother Liang and Sister-in-law?”

Besides Aunt Yu and Liang Yuan, only her two children were at the table.

“It might rain the next few days. Your Brother Liang went to drain the water and has yet to return. Your sister-in-law went to call him. They should be back soon.”

Lu Sheng glanced at the food on the table and realized that it was still full.

Aunt Yu only placed some food into the three children’s bowls. Her bowl was filled with plain porridge.

“I bought meat buns. They’re still warm. I’ll get them now.”

Lu Sheng smiled and stood up. She patted the backs of her two children before returning home.

The first thing she did when she reached home was to wash the pot and start a fire. Then, she took out two slices of beef jerky and pan-fried some pork.

As the sun was shining brightly yesterday, the beef had dried quickly. It only took a short while to be cooked.

Instantly, the entire kitchen was filled with the smell of beef jerky.

Lu Sheng took a plate and entered the house to wash a pair of scissors. Then, she cut the beef jerky into small slices and placed them on the plate.

She tasted a small piece. It was moderately salty, and it tasted good whether it was eaten directly or with porridge.

She took another plate and placed the ten meat buns she bought on it before carrying them to her neighbor.

When she arrived, Liang Ping and Mdm Chen had just washed their hands.

“Ah Sheng is here!”

Mdm Chen greeted her with a smile.

Lu Sheng placed the items on the table and smiled. “Sister-in-law, Brother Liang, sorry for disturbing you.”

“Oh!” Aunt Yu frowned. “You’ve already brought over the meat buns. Why did you bring over the beef jerky as well? How expensive is it? You don’t know how much my heart aches.”

“Good things should be shared.”

Lu Sheng said jokingly, “Moreover, Ah Jiang, Ah Xin, and I are eating here. It’s not like we’re giving this to you alone. Sister-in-law, don’t you think so?”

Mdm Chen smiled gently. “Whatever Ah Sheng says.”
