Chapter 595: My Father's Surname is Lu

Hou Shi stared at the eggs in her hand, surprised. In the past, she wouldn't have paid much attention to a few eggs. She even had a period where she would only eat egg whites and not the yolks. However, after experiencing so much, she knew just how precious these eggs were.

She hadn't eaten eggs for several months, and now this item seemed like a delicious delicacy in her eyes. Hou Shi looked up at Shu Yu and asked, "Are these all for us?" Four eggs—what ordinary household would be so generous, giving away four eggs right off the bat?

Hou Shi furrowed her brows. "This isn't good. You've only just reunited with your family, and you're giving us so many eggs. What if they think you have a bad character?" Although she was tempted to peel one and eat it herself, Hou Shi restrained herself and spoke to Shu Yu about necessary social etiquette.

Because she had experienced loss, Hou Shi hoped even more that Shu Yu could grasp hold of this newfound family.

Shu Yu waved her hand dismissively. "It's fine. My grandmother specifically prepared them for you. She heard that you took care of me when I was young, and she is grateful to you. My grandmother said that she can't give you anything else or help in any other way, but she can occasionally improve your meals."

Shu Yu had money, and as long as the conditions allowed, once she passed the Minglu, she could afford to eat better.

Hou Shi remained silent for a while. In the past, she had only given little Shu Yu a few buns and pastries. She had already asked for "repayment" during their time on the exile road.

But now, hearing Shu Yu's words, these eggs were not just for a few days, but occasionally there would be more?

Hou Shi couldn't help but look at her daughter beside her, then took a deep breath and accepted the eggs. "Alright, then I won't be polite." She would return the favor in the future.

The most important thing now was to take care of their health and strive to live on. Especially for Sixth Miss, she was still young, not yet fully grown, and needed to eat better.

Hou Shi thanked Shu Yu again and then proceeded to peel the eggs with Sixth Miss.

With many people around, Hou Shi purposely lagged a few steps behind to avoid drawing attention. They ate while walking towards the wasteland with Shu Yu.

After they finished eating, Hou Shi suddenly remembered what she had wanted to say. "I almost forgot, Third Miss..."

Shu Yu interrupted her, "I have officially recognized my ancestral roots now. Although my household registration hasn't been transferred yet, I don't want to be the daughter of the Shu family anymore. My father's surname is Lu, so from now on, you can just call me Lu Shuyu. I'm no longer the Third Miss of the Shu family."

Hou Yiniang paused for a moment, then nodded. "That's right. It's not easy being a daughter of the Shu family. Then I will call you Ah Yu directly."

"Okay."

"Ah Yu, after you left yesterday, something happened to the Shu family. Second Miss found out that you had recognized your ancestral roots and flew into a rage. She ended up spitting blood and fainting on the spot."

Shu Yu's footsteps paused. "Fainted?"

"Yes, we were all startled."

"What happened afterward? Did they call a doctor?"

Speaking of this, Hou Shi sneered. "Calling a doctor costs money. Where does the Shu family have money? After Second Miss woke up, they discussed for a long time, right in front of her while she was still unconscious. They only bothered to find a mediocre village doctor in the end."

Calling a doctor required money, and the Shu family didn't have any. Later, when Second Miss woke up, they had no choice but to use their daily rations to send someone to invite the village doctor.

That doctor was also a prisoner exiled to this place. Apart from him, there were no other doctors in the Zhengdao Village.
