Chapter 211: Ah Xiang and Her Daughter
Shu Yu raised her hand, about to knock on the door, but she heard Ah Xiang sigh from inside. "Xiang Di, you shouldn't confront them head-on. Didn't we say earlier that you should try to change your temperament? Why are you becoming even more..." Fu Xiang Di's voice was firm and decisive. "I think it's fine. This is just how I am, and I haven't been able to change it in over ten years. Besides, I've become stronger myself, so no one dares to bully me. Just like that sister from the Lu family, didn't Mother say she's good?" Ah Xiang couldn't find words to respond. She had a soft temperament herself, which made her vulnerable to mistreatment from her in-laws. It was her fault that her daughter had become like this. The two of them relied on each other for survival, living alone at the foot of the mountain. If they weren't tough, they would be devoured sooner or later. Ah Xiang's temperament couldn't be changed in a short period of time. Who would have thought that Fu Xiang Di, without realizing it, had actually become the backbone of their family. Shu Yu didn't expect to hear her own name again. Well, it seemed that she held a significant position in the hearts of the people in Ruan Village. Feeling embarrassed about eavesdropping, Shu Yu quickly knocked on the door twice. The voices in the courtyard instantly fell silent, followed by the sound of Fu Xiang Di's footsteps. "It must be them again. I'll go..." The door was pulled open, and when Fu Xiang Di looked up, instead of the expected curse, she saw Shu Yu's smiling face. Fu Xiang Di froze completely. "You... Who are you?" "I'm Lu Shu Yu, the second daughter of Lu's family from Shishi Village. I've come to see Aunt Ah Xiang," Shu Yu introduced herself again. Fu Xiang Di blinked, as if the person in front of her was unreal. Only when Ah Xiang found it strange and walked out did Fu Xiang Di suddenly come to her senses, but she didn't know what to say for a moment. Ah Xiang didn't recognize Shu Yu. When the incident happened at the Ruan family last time, many people went to see, and Fu Xiang Di went as well. However, Ah Xiang didn't leave the house and only heard about it from Fu Xiang Di. Shu Yu smiled at Ah Xiang and introduced herself once again. Fu Xiang Di nodded repeatedly on the side. "Yes, yes, yes, she is the sister from the Lu family." After speaking, she quickly stepped aside and said, "Sister from the Lu family, please come in and have a seat." Shu Yu followed the mother and daughter into the house and then surveyed the courtyard. Just as Ruan Shi described, this courtyard at the foot of the mountain was a place that nobody in the village wanted, so it was rented to the two of them. The house was old but kept very clean. Many places had been patched up with stones and mud, as if they had been repaired multiple times. The courtyard wasn't big either, with only one room, but it was enough for the two of them. Ah Xiang led Shu Yu into the main room, and Fu Xiang Di quickly poured a glass of water. Shu Yu thanked her and then sat down on the side. Ah Xiang glanced at her for a moment and couldn't help but smile. ''Good, that's good. I heard earlier that you had come back, and I wanted to come and see you. But I've been busy lately, so I didn't have a chance. Your return must have made your mother very happy.'' ''Yes, I'm also happy to be home.'' Ah Xiang sat across from her, feeling a bit curious. ''When you came today, did your mother mention me?'' ''Yes, my mother said that Auntie Ah Xiang is very skilled in sewing and tailoring. She even learned from you before, so you can be considered her mentor.'' Ah Xiang was taken aback and quickly waved her hand. ''What mentor? Your mother is just making things up. We were helping each other, and she also taught me many techniques.'' ''Auntie Ah Xiang is too modest,'' Shu Yu smiled and said, ''But I really want to see how skilled you are in your craft.''
