Chapter 402: Li Shi's Changing Expression
This also included Li Shi.
Li Shi was startled by Da Niu's disheveled appearance and quickly stood up, walking over. "Da Niu, what happened to you?"
Li Shi had noticed that both Lu Dasong and Da Niu hadn't returned, and she felt uncomfortable thinking they were busy serving the Lu family. So she ran over to check on them.
To her surprise, Lu Dasong was indeed here, helping with some physical labor. But Da Niu was nowhere to be found. She asked Lu Sixing and the others, but no one knew where he had gone.
Little did she expect that Da Niu would suddenly appear in front of everyone in such a state.
Thinking that something had happened to him, Li Shi became anxious. "Did someone bully you?"
Da Niu wiped his face and waved his hand. "Mother, I'm fine. I just fell because I was running too fast. It's nothing."
"Running too fast? What's so urgent? The road is slippery in this rainy weather. Can't you be more careful? What if something happened to you?"
"I came to inform Fourth Aunt and the others. The county officials have come to find them."
Li Shi's heart skipped a beat, and her first thought was similar to Auntie Yao's. "County officials... they've come to find them again? What happened?"
"There's nothing wrong." Da Niu quickly finished speaking and hurriedly walked inside.
When he reached the corridor, Lu Sixing happened to come out with a clean towel in her hand. She handed it to him. "Quick, wipe yourself. Look, you're soaked."
Da Niu wiped himself haphazardly and said, "Fourth Aunt, do you need to prepare something? The county officials are coming to reward all of you."
"Reward... us?" Lu Sixing raised her head in astonishment. "Are you sure you didn't mishear?"
"No, they're coming this way." Da Niu was very excited.
The villagers under the eaves listened to this and looked at each other in surprise.
What could the reward be for?
Before a few people could recover from their astonishment, Shu Yu, who had been playing with the baby in the room, came out and said to Lu Sixing, "Fourth Aunt, it must be tiring for the county officials to come here in the rain. Let's boil some ginger tea in advance. It will come in handy when they arrive."
Lu Sixing suddenly realized, "That's right, I'll go and make ginger tea."
Liang Shi, who was quick-witted, said, "I'll help you." She had always been someone who understood the situation. If the county officials were going to reward her younger sister's family, who knew, they might even become wealthy. She needed to establish a good relationship with them.
Li Shi didn't react as quickly as her. Although she had the same thoughts in her mind, she didn't show it.
But in the end, she still pursed her lips and followed along, saying, "Is there any ginger in the kitchen? Look for it quickly. If there isn't any, I'll ask Da Niu to bring some."
Da Niu, who was still damp, "..."
Forget it, he should go back and change his clothes.
Da Niu bid farewell to Shu Yu and hurried back home.
The remaining villagers looked at each other. Although the hosts were busy, they didn't want to leave.
They also wanted to know what benefits the county officials would bring to Yuan Shanchuan.
For this reason, some of them went to the kitchen to help, while others went to help Lu Dasong tidy up the yard. They were quite diligent.
Shu Yu watched with amazement. The gossip factor among the villagers of Shishi Village was truly impressive. In order to get firsthand information, they temporarily set aside their own work and gathered happily at their house.
However, Shu Yu was also curious to know if the authorities had accepted her suggestion.
