Chapter 890: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 890: Liang Shi's Sense of Righteousness
Everyone was puzzled, and even the old lady frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Mother, today we went to eldest brother's house and brought a lot of rice and food. We planned to have a meal at noon, but there was still a lot left. Sister-in-law wanted to hog it all to herself, and I couldn't let her do such a thing, so when she wasn't paying attention, I carried the rest and put it in the cart."
Liang Shi spoke with a righteous demeanor, exuding confidence.
It would have been even more convincing if she didn't plan to take all those things and bring them back to her own family instead.
The old lady pointed at her. "You're not much different from your sister-in-law. I've never seen people like you who take advantage of their own mother."
Liang Shi hurriedly climbed onto the cart and waved at Lu San Zhu. "Hurry up, mother said it's getting late. Aren't you going back?"
Lu Sanzhu immediately carried the two children onto the cart and urged them on by pulling the reins.
Liang Shi stuck her head out and said to the old lady, "Mother, I didn't take advantage of you alone. Compared to my maternal family, I'm much filial to you."
The old lady took off her shoe and was about to throw it at her. She had never seen such shamelessness before—taking things from her maternal and marital families and daring to compare them.
Shu Yu helplessly intervened, "Grandmother, please calm down. You know third Aunt's temperament. It's not worth getting angry with her."
"I'm even more aggrieved for her parents. They gave birth to such a shameless daughter. You don't know, last time she brought a pound of meat to her parents, they were almost moved to tears. They even packed a basket of fresh vegetables for her when she returned. She's taken advantage of their kindness. If I had known, I wouldn't have prepared those specialties for her."
Yes, specialties.
When the Lu family returned from the southwest, they bought many local specialties in Linzhang Prefecture and collected rare and unusual items along the way. Each family received their share, ensuring that no one missed out.
The portion for the main branch had been sent over in the morning, while the rest had just been moved to the cart. Since Lu Sanzhu and his wife couldn't be trusted, the old lady entrusted it to Lu Sixing and his family.
Little did they expect Liang Shi to be so untrustworthy, regretting giving her those things.
In the cart, Liang Shi noticed several sacks behind the cart, causing the children to huddle together, making the cart quite crowded.
Liang Shi found it strange. "What's this?"
Lu Sixing chuckled, "Third sister-in-law, these are the specialties brought by Mother and Second Brother from the southwest. Each family gets a share."
Liang Shi's eyes lit up. "What do we have? Let me see."
As the cart jolted, Lu Sixing hurriedly supported her. "We'll look when we get back. Hold onto Bao Ya for now, so you won't fall."
Liang Shi could only step back, but her eyes kept glancing over, silently counting the number of sacks in her mind.
Once both families had left, the second branch finally quieted down.
Shu Yu could finally take a look at the courtyard they were currently living in. This time, the courtyard had four rooms, with a small study among them. The other three rooms were larger than the previous rented courtyard.
The small study was reserved for Da Hu, who had a small bed inside for reading and resting.
After a long day, the whole family quickly tidied up and went to sleep.
