 Chapter 260: The Path to Their Door, Sanzhu Couple

With the Jiang family matter resolved, Shu Yu felt a sense of relief. She planned to go back, change her clothes, and then visit the shop. To her surprise, as she approached her own doorstep, she saw two familiar figures sitting on the steps. Both of them were sweating profusely and looked dispirited, their heads drooping as they spoke. They didn't even notice Shu Yu approaching. As she got closer, Shu Yu could hear their conversation. "I told you we should go to the ready-to-wear shop, but you insisted on coming here," complained Liang Shi. Lu Sanzhu was getting irritated, "Why go to the ready-to-wear shop? Don't you know they have no business? If we go there and my mother is in a bad mood and kicks us out, what will we do then?" "It's not our fault that their business is bad. Why would they kick us out?" "My mother is just unreasonable. What if she sees me and thinks I bring bad luck?" Shu Yu rubbed her forehead. Uncle Sanzhu, you have truly embarked on the path of smearing Grandma's reputation. Lu Sanzhu became more agitated, "I always said that Ah Yu should sell things like popcorn and potato chips. They are delicious, and if she sets up a stall on the street, she would definitely do well. But no, she insisted on opening a ready-to-wear shop. Look, she doesn't even have any business. Oh, I'm so worried. I was hoping she would make us rich, but now it seems like we'll be lucky if she doesn't make us bankrupt." Liang Shi nodded in agreement, "I have to say, Ah Yu is clever in some aspects, especially when it comes to dealing with people. But when it comes to running a business, she lacks the vision I have." "Exactly," Lu Sanzhu said, wiping off his sweat with annoyance. "I wonder where my mother and the others have gone on such a hot day. They couldn't all be at the shop, could they? The shop has no business, and it would be chaotic if the whole family crowded in there." "Who knows?" Liang Shi replied. "Ah..." "Ah..." The sound of their deep sighs made Shu Yu feel like rolling her eyes. What on earth were this couple doing? Just as Shu Yu was about to speak and call out to them, she saw Liang Shi take out two pastries from her bag and hand one to Lu Sanzhu. "We're hungry, let's eat something first." Shu Yu was shocked. Were her uncle and aunt feeling unwell? They actually brought their own food when they came to the county town? Weren't they initially planning to come and mooch off someone else's meal? Seeing Lu Sanzhu take a bite of the dry pastry and almost choke, Shu Yu finally spoke up, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate to sit outside someone else's house and chat?" The two of them froze and immediately turned their heads. "Ah, Ah Yu?" Lu Sanzhu quickly swallowed the pastry. His face turned red from the excitement. Liang Shi put down what she was holding and stood up, overjoyed. "Ah Yu, you're finally back. We've been waiting for you for so long." Shu Yu chuckled. She didn't believe they had been waiting for long. Standing under the scorching sun outside and lingering at the door was uncomfortable. Shu Yu quickly opened the courtyard gate with her keys and welcomed them in. As soon as Lu Sanzhu entered the house, he hurriedly rushed to the main hall and poured himself a glass of water, which he gulped down to finally feel relieved. After burping, he smiled and looked at Shu Yu. "Ah Yu, where did you all go? There's no one in the house." Shu Yu also took a few sips of water. "I was wondering the same thing. How did you two end up coming to the county town today?" Grandma said yesterday that she wanted to return to the village and look for Liang Shi to make dolls.
