He Feng thought for a while and said, "Xiaohong, I think you should clean up now and go to the old house."

"We have lived in the old house for decades, and we all live well. Nothing has happened. Besides, look at Achuan. He was studying in the old house, passed the scholar examination, and now he has won the exam again. ”

"I think the feng shui at the old house is very good. If Xiaobao is there in the future, I think he will be able to enjoy the blessings of his ancestors."

She paused and continued: "Besides, we only replaced the hay on the roof last winter, so we don't need to replace it yet."

"Those pots and pans are still usable. If you really don't like them, just go to town and buy some new ones tomorrow."

"If you want to change the chairs and tables at home, just go to the old Pantou at the east end of the village and help you re-make them."

Lu Xiaohong was stunned when she heard He Feng's words and almost didn't react.

"Sister-in-law, do you mean that I can handle all these things by myself? Where do I have the money?"

Not to mention that when she came back from the Xu family, she didn't have much money with her. Even if she had some money, she didn't want to take it out.

She took it for granted that the Lu family should help her get these things.

Unexpectedly, Hefeng didn't let her get her wish. She just looked at her lightly and said, "We have used these things for so many years. We know best whether they are durable or not."

"If you insist on changing it, then you can change it yourself if you have the money. Don't expect us to help you."

This time I made it completely clear.

Lu Xiaohong's face turned ugly all of a sudden. She looked at He Feng blankly, and then at Father Lu, hoping that Father Lu would help her out of brother-sister friendship.

However, Father Lu didn't even look at her. Instead, he told Mrs. Qiu: "Mother Qiu, follow Xiaohong, help her pack her things, and send her to her old house."

Mrs. Qiu felt happy after listening to the instructions, but she didn't dare to show it on her face. She just lowered her head and complied.

After Father Lu finished his instructions, Mrs. Qiu turned sideways towards the guest room and called out: "Auntie, please."

Lu Xiaohong's eyes instantly turned red, and she felt extremely aggrieved.

Her brother and sister-in-law were unwilling to help her. This, this was her natal family!

She glanced at them hatefully, took a deep breath, and followed Mrs. Qiu without looking back.

Father Lu looked at her leaving figure, sighed softly, and said nothing.

He Feng saw it and said, "His dad, let Mrs. Qiu send some rice and noodles to Xiao Hong later. Also, give her some money."

After all, she is a biological sister. She is so strong-willed that she made peace with Xu Wei and returned to her parents' home. Brothers and sisters-in-law in the family cannot really ignore her.

Father Lu picked up the teapot, refilled a cup for himself and He Feng, took a sip, and said with a guilty look on his face: "Feng'er, thank you for letting me worry about you."

He Feng understood and joked with a smile: "Then you have to be nicer to me in the future."

Father Lu also smiled, looked at her seriously, and nodded.

-

On the other side, Lu Xiaohong returned to the guest room, simply packed her change of clothes, packed two packages, and asked Mrs. Qiu to carry them, while she held Xu Xiaobao and walked outside.

After stepping out of the Lu family's threshold, she paused, turned around and looked at the main room a few times. She heard the voices of Father Lu and his wife talking and laughing from time to time in the main room, which made her feel even more angry.

Seeing this, Mrs. Qiu hurriedly shouted: "Auntie, let's go."

Lu Xiaohong turned around, glanced at Mrs. Qiu, and left without looking back.

When she arrived at the old house, Mrs. Qiu put down her things and left without looking back. She was afraid that if she stayed, she would be dragged to work by Lu Xiaohong the next second.

Seeing her running away, Lu Xiaohong felt even more taunted in her heart.

She put Xu Xiaobao on the bed that had been made before taking a closer look at the old house where she grew up.

It's a good thing if you don't look closely, but when you look closely, you can see that there are even moss growing on the yellow soil wall and in the corners. Ants are crawling along the moss, and there are even several millipedes crawling around the corners. .

Looking at this scene, she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart. Her brother's family lived in a large blue brick house, but she could only live in such a dilapidated thatched house. It was really good!

Lu Xiaohong wiped her tears and went to the kitchen again, planning to light a fire to cook for herself. However, she suddenly remembered that she had no rice or noodles.

Didn’t the Lu family just say they would give some to themselves? Why hasn't it been delivered yet? Lu Xiaohong returned to the house and was about to go over to ask for it with Xu Xiaobao in her arms when she saw Mrs. Qiu and Mrs. Dong coming each carrying baskets on their backs.

"Are you bringing me something?" Lu Xiaohong turned her tears into a smile. Before they could put down their backpacks, she reached out to touch the things in the backpacks.

Sure enough, she touched rice! Lu Xiaohong's mouth suddenly opened into a grin.

As Mrs. Qiu and Mrs. Dong put down their backpacks, everything inside could be seen.

One of the baskets contained a large bag of rice and a small bag of flour. The other basket contained half a basket of sweet potatoes, a small half jar of lard, salt, two knives of bacon, and some fresh vegetables.

"Auntie, our wife asked us to bring this over. She said that if you haven't grown vegetables recently, you can go pick vegetables in the Lu family garden first, and wait until you grow vegetables yourself later."

Lu Xiaohong was happy for a while, but after thinking about it, she felt unhappy again.

Just eat this little food. After this meal, what will you do next?

Mrs. Qiu saw her expression in her eyes and sighed softly in her heart. Then she took out a purse from her arms and handed it over.

"Auntie, this is the money our wife gave you. Keep it. My wife said you'd better find some work before winter comes."

In fact, Hefeng also said a lot, but as a servant, Mrs. Qiu was not comfortable saying many things.

He Feng's original words were: If Lu Xiaohong doesn't find something to do now and make some money, then she will have nothing to do. Then in the winter, the two of them will starve to death? Or do you expect the Lu family to always help? no way!

However, Lu Xiaohong was holding a heavy purse in her hands, and she was already so happy that she didn't even hear what Mrs. Qiu said.

After Mrs. Qiu finished speaking, she didn't want to stay any longer. She grabbed Mrs. Dong and hurried back to resume her life.

As for what happens to Lu Xiaohong in the future, that has nothing to do with them.

Anyway, even if Madam hadn't said those words, if Lu Xiaohong was a serious person, she would have made plans for herself.

When they arrived at the Lu family, Mrs. Qiu reported, "Madam, we have conveyed your words to my aunt."

He Feng nodded, frowning, sipping tea quietly, looking into the distance, not knowing what he was worried about.
