82 Thank You Gift
The people outside did not hear Old Liu’s response and shouted twice more. Old Liu said angrily, “I’m not deaf. I’ll go later.”
Old Liu did not take the silver on the table, but his eldest daughter-in-law and second daughter-in-law were staring at it.
It was obvious that they would not be so generous as to not want this money.
Liu Dashi also whispered, “We still owe the doctor 100 copper coins for Mother’s medicine...”
It was not that their family was so poor that they could not take out any money, but they still had to use the remaining money to buy some farming tools and other miscellaneous items.
One tael of silver was not a small sum. A more economical family could use it for a year!
Qin Shi asked, “Wan’er, is your family alright? Don’t pull any tricks. It’s better to owe money to our family than to owe money to outsiders. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about with Father and Mother.”
Qin Shi felt guilty towards her youngest daughter, which was why she agreed to lend them the money back then.
“Mother, don’t worry. My mother-in-law asked me to bring this money over. If we’re lacking again in the future, I’ll have to ask Father and Mother for help again. At that time, don’t ignore me.” Liu Shi pretended to be coquettish. She still felt a little embarrassed in front of her husband.
“Then we’ll take the money. If you have any difficulties in the future, remember to tell me.” After Qin Shi took the money, the two daughters-in-law at home heaved a sigh of relief.
They were afraid that their in-laws would be too biased. If they did not even accept the money from their youngest daughter, their family would really have a hard time.
Fortunately, they were sensible.
Old Liu snorted. “If you’re just going beyond your means to look impressive, I won’t care about you in the future! Don’t even think about taking away the money that fell into my pocket!”
Liu Shi smiled. “I understand.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What are you still dawdling around for? Didn’t you hear the village chief call us over? Are you all being possessed by toads? Do you want me to carry you there?!”
Old Liu walked out of the courtyard. He originally wanted to shout at his grandchildren, but when he saw Little Ah Yu playing happily to the point where her face was red, his words changed.
“You kids only know how to fool around every day. Put down your things and go.” He clasped his hands behind his back and led the way out the door.
Qin Shi said, “You guys go. I’m not feeling well, so I won’t go over. Tell me about it when you come back.”
Liu Shi was a little worried. “Why did the village chief call us over? If we delay for too long, it will be dark when we return to Hu Family Village.”
When he heard that they were leaving, Liu Dashi hurriedly said, “Little Sister, won’t you stay here for a few more days? We can clean up another room at home and let you live in it.”
Madam Yang also said, “That’s right. I’ve already discussed it with Second Sister-in-law. We can clean up the room and you guys can stay there tonight.”
“We still have a lot of things to do at home, so I can’t stay for long.” Liu Shi smiled apologetically.
Wang Chuanman also said, “Before we left, Mother also instructed us to reach home before dark.”
Thinking of the rumored Old Madam Wang, everyone from the Liu family fell silent.
That was the legendary old woman who tortured her daughters-in-law to death!
Disappointment flashed across Qin Shi’s eyes. Although she really wanted her daughter to stay for two more days, she did not force her.
She naturally could not make things difficult for her daughter.
The group went to the village chief’s house. It turned out that it was regarding the person who had fallen into the water.
It turned out that that person was still related to Shanyang Village.
At that time, she had just gotten pregnant with her third child. As this pregnancy was more problematic, she lay in bed to recuperate and did not know anything about the outside world.
Her husband had exchanged for childrens’ meat and lied to her that he’d hunted the meat. It wasn’t until Hu Family Village exposed this matter that she discovered that her husband was also involved in the cannibalism and had even gotten poisoned from the snakes’ venom.
The people of Shanyang Village did not dare to report it to the officials, nor did they dare to deal with it directly. They could only get someone to send her back to her family and tell the public that she was divorced by her husband because she was crazy.
The people in Xiashan Village only knew that she had been divorced and out of her mind, but they did not know why.
When they arrived at the village chief’s house, an old woman with white hair saw Old Liu and the others and hurriedly asked, “They said that you saved Xiao Mei, right?”
Before Old Liu could speak, Goutou spoke first. “That’s right. It was Sister Ah Yu who directed us.”
After the old woman asked who Ah Yu was, she knelt down in front of her without thinking.
Little Ah Yu was stunned and did not know what had happened, but Liu Shi pulled her away. Her eldest sister-in-law, Madam Yang, and second sister-in-law, Madam Li, pulled the old woman back.
“My poor Xiao Mei! A living and healthy person went crazy just like that, and now she even jumped into a well! If you hadn’t seen it, she would have lost her life, and I wouldn’t have been able to live!” The old woman’s entire body went weak as she collapsed to the ground, crying uncontrollably.
As she muttered about how obedient her daughter had been in the past, she also said that if she’d died, she would not have been able to live either. Clearly, she had been greatly agitated.
Little Ah Yu felt that this old granny was very pitiful, so she rummaged through her pocket and found a red fruit.
She carefully moved to the front of the old granny and handed her the fruit. “Granny, don’t be sad. Ah Yu will give you a red fruit.”
The old woman stopped crying. When she saw Little Ah Yu holding the red fruit, she suddenly remembered that many years ago, her daughter had also been like this and picked fruits for her on the mountain.
She smiled and said, “Mother, this is a fruit that Xiao Mei specially picked for you. It’s definitely the sweetest!”
But now, her obedient daughter had gone crazy and almost died!
She felt an intense hatred in her heart, but she didn’t know who to direct the hate towards.
However, when she saw Little Ah Yu, her heart, which was about to collapse, miraculously recovered a lot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Your name is Ah Yu? You’re a good child, a very good child,” the old woman muttered and pushed Little Ah Yu’s hand back. “You eat. Grandma won’t eat.”
At this moment, Xiao Mei’s other family members had already stuffed some food into Liu Shi and Wang Chuanman’s hands.
“This is our thank-you gift. There’s not much. I hope you don’t mind!”
As for Chun Sheng who’d done most of the saving, they also gave him a lot of additional things.
Xiao Mei’s family was really grateful to them. If not for them, Xiao Mei would have died already.
Xiao Mei was the eldest daughter of Wu Laosan’s family. No matter how little they usually thought about her, they could not bear to part with her.
[Kid, you triggered a temporary rescue mission!]
...
When Little Ah Yu suddenly heard this, she did not notice that she had already uttered the word “Ah?”.
“What’s wrong?” Liu Shi could not win against the other party and could only put away the things. When she heard Little Ah Yu’s voice, she hurriedly lowered her head and asked her.
“It’s nothing, Mother.” Little Ah Yu hurriedly waved her hand.
After using it many times, she became very familiar with it.
She asked in his heart, “Elf, what mission is it?”
[When that old granny approached you just now, she transmitted love energy, so she triggered the rescue mission.]
[As long as you help that old granny save her daughter, you can obtain a generous reward of love energy!]
“Oh, oh, how can I help?” Little Ah Yu did not care about the rewards at all, but she liked to help others.
[Do you still remember the thing from the lucky draw?]
