Chapter 45: The Beginning

Su Yue walked towards the courtyard door with a smile on her face, but in fact she was frantically searching in her mind for who this woman was.

In a moment, Su Yue knew who this woman was.

She is Shitou's mother, Zhang Dahong's daughter-in-law, and Wang Xiuying, a friend of the original owner.

"Sister Xiuying, why did you cut your hair?" No wonder she didn't recognize it just now.

Wang Xiuying touched her hair and said with a smile: "Didn't I go to my parents' house to live for a while? There happened to be a hair collector at my parents' house, so I sold it for two yuan."

Su Yue led Wang Xiuying into the main room, "So that's it, I almost didn't recognize it was Sister Xiuying just now."

"Sister Xiuying, drink water."

Wang Xiuying said "Hey", picked up the bowl, took a sip of water, and looked in the main room, "I just came back from my parents' home and heard that you separated and built such a big house."

Her mother was sick, and her brother and sister-in-law were busy, so she went to take care of her for more than half a month. Unexpectedly, when she came back, Su Yue had already separated.

I don’t know if I was at a disadvantage. It would have been nice if she had been at home and could have helped.

Wang Xiuying was a little worried. She took Su Yue's hand and said, "If you have any problems, tell me. If that old pious woman Li Guihua comes to bully you again, just tell me. Don't hold back and say nothing like before."

Su Yue was held by the hand and her fingers couldn't help but move. She was not used to being so close to others.

But Wang Xiuying was a friend of the original owner, and she helped the original owner a lot. Now she was also caring about her, so it was hard for her to offend Wang Xiuying.

"Sister Xiuying, thank you. I was too cowardly in the past, but now I am living alone. For Xiaobao, I will live on." Su Yue pursed her lips and smiled.

This is just to give a reason for her sudden change. Wang Xiuying is the original owner's only friend, and she knows more or less the original owner's personality.

The best way is to change a little bit, so that everyone will subconsciously feel that Su Yue is like this.

It's impossible for her to completely recreate the character of the original owner just to avoid making people suspicious, so what's the point of doing it again?

Hearing what Su Yue said, Wang Xiuying was also quite pleased, just like the sister she had been watching grow up. She patted her hand and said, "You are right to think so. As a mother, you must be strong. For Xiaobao, you must do the same."

Stand up on your own."

Su Yue nodded and smiled.

Wang Xiuying put the small basket on her arm on the table, lifted the cloth on it, and revealed the white-pink egg shell inside, "I didn't catch up with you on the beam, and I don't have any good things at home, so I'll take this egg as a congratulation to you."

It’s a happy housewarming, and your life will go smoothly in the future, so don’t be too little.”

Su Yue glanced at Wang Xiuying in surprise. There were quite a lot of eggs in this small basket. They were clean and could be sold in town for several dollars.

In the countryside, chickens are also one of the important assets of the family. The oil, salt, sauce and vinegar we usually eat are all obtained in exchange for eggs.

Under the premise that there is not much income throughout the year, eggs are equivalent to money. This is the so-called chicken butt bank.

In order to make the chickens at home lay more eggs, children will go all over the mountains and fields to dig up earthworms and catch small fish and shrimps to feed.

So the small basket of eggs that Wang Xiuying got was quite a gift, but life was not easy for everyone now, so she couldn't take it.

"Sister Xiuying, what are you doing? I'm very happy that you can come. How can I ask for this basket of eggs?" Su Yue pushed the basket in front of Wang Xiuying again.

"How can anyone come to the door empty-handed? Then I will have the nerve to come next time?" Wang Xiuying pushed the egg back.

"I really can't help Sister Xiuying, I can't accept these eggs."

"Why can't you accept it? This is what I gave Xiaobao to eat. If you don't accept it, you don't recognize me as your sister?" Wang Xiuying pretended to be angry, stood up and was about to leave.

"Hey, no, Sister Xiuying, I don't mean that... I can't hold it..." Su Yue said helplessly.

This was the first time she had seen this method of gift-giving. She had to give in and out, but finally accepted it.

Seeing Su Yue accept it, Wang Xiuying suddenly smiled and said, "That's right! You're still being polite to me for just a few eggs. Okay, I have something to do at home, so I won't sit down and leave now!"

Su Yue's mind was slightly relaxed. She really didn't know what to talk about, but Wang Xiuying seemed to be a pretty good person. It would be nice to get to know her more often in the future.

"Then I won't send it to you, Sister Xiuying, the house hasn't been tidied up yet."

Su Yue and Wang Xiuying walked to the entrance of the hospital together. Wang Xiuying waved her hand and went home.

Su Yue closed the courtyard door and cleaned the courtyard. She did not return the unused cement bricks because she thought it was troublesome. She put them all in the utility room, maybe they will be used in the future.

When nothing happened, Su Yue locked the door and went to Wei Jianguo. She had to move her luggage back and sleep in her new home at night!

Apart from a few pieces of clothing for her and Xiaobao, there were only two quilts, which could be picked up in one trip.

In the yard, Ma Lanfang was feeding chickens and ducks. The fluffy chickens and ducks were running around happily, scrambling to eat.

"The one from the third family is back?" Ma Lanfang asked with a smile.

"Well, Auntie, where did you buy this chick and duck? It's so cute." Su Yue looked at the little yellow balls with greedy eyes. In her eyes, they were all moving meat.

In order to raise chickens and ducks, she also asked the SS to build two small circles in the yard just to make it easier to raise them.

Ma Lanfang smiled and glanced at Su Yue. She was still a little girl now that she was a mother. Chickens and ducks were raised for food, so they only looked good when they first hatched.

"Where did you buy it? I kept the eggs myself and hatched them on the kang."

"Auntie still has this ability."

"Hey! What's the skill? We peasant women know it," Ma Lanfang said with a smile.

Su Yue:...I can't...

"You can catch a few of these chicks and ducks later and raise them for three to four months before they can lay eggs." Ma Lanfang added.

Su Yue told her last night that she would move to a new house after today's surgery. She couldn't keep him, so she had no choice but to obey her.

After living together for more than half a month, she was quite reluctant to let go, but she also knew that Su Yue and Xiaobao were a family, and they always had their own lives to live.

"Then I won't be polite to you, Auntie. I'll go home and bring eggs to trade with you later." Su Yue said with a smile, wondering where to get the chicks.

"What's for it? These are the eggs in the basket you brought. I saw there were more than a dozen eggs, and they were hatched together. I thought you could raise them when you move."

"Really? Thank you, Auntie, you are so considerate." Su Yue looked at Ma Lanfang gratefully.

I took another look at the chickens and ducks with surprise. I want to take you home! You will raise them to eat meat.
