Chapter 301 - 291: On the Right Path
Lu Yun watched Shitou with a sly smile and finally set aside her playful spirit to earnestly taste the meal in front of her. While eating, she casually struck up a conversation with Su Qiaoling and Wen Shan, chatting idly.
Su Qiaoling and Wen Shan were naturally very cooperative, and soon the three of them were laughing and talking as if nothing had happened before.
Shitou was very satisfied with their "getting on board."
After finishing their meal and settling the bill, the four were led to the backyard by a young daughter-in-law who had been called over by that woman.
Lu Yun, with her sharp ears, heard the woman shout, "Wu Jia," towards the door leading to the inner yard.
Sure enough, the young daughter-in-law called "Wu Jia" appeared shortly after.
Although this county town was small, each shop on this street was generally quite large, and nearly every shop had a storefront with a yard in the back.
There was plenty of land, and the living spaces were large and comfortable—something that people living in the city couldn’t compare with.
"Please take a seat for a moment and have a cup of tea while waiting. It’s really the busiest time for business right now, and my father-in-law and my brother and sister-in-law are still too busy to spare a moment."
Leading the four to a room in the backyard, Wu Jia, with her easy grace, brought them a pot of tea and poured a cup for each person.
