Chapter 9: Lujia
Chapter 9 Lu Family
Lu's house is a little far from the entrance of the village, behind the village of Shangshi Village.
Shu Yu followed behind Sanya, and when he got to Lu's house, he had already looked at the village almost.
Shangshi Village is not very big, and the houses are not built regularly, most of them are outdated. Even the village chief's house is just a slightly larger mud house.
Arrived at the door of Lu's house, Sanya hurried forward, pushed open the false door and shouted, "Dad, Daddy, I'm back."
Shu Yu followed behind, and after entering the house, he closed the door with his backhand, and put the basket in his hand on the corner of the yard, and then looked at the small yard in front of him.
is really small, the whole yard is about less than 15 square meters, just like this, it is still full of many things. However, it can be seen that the Lu family members are diligent and clean up.
Shu Yu crossed the courtyard and entered the main room.
Sanya ran over, sweating profusely, and then said in a low voice, "Sister, my father is not at home, he may have gone out."
"Anyone in your family?"
Sanya shook her head, "They've all gone out to work, sister, can you wait here? They'll be back soon. I, I'll go get you some water."
After speaking, he turned around and ran to the kitchen. After a while, he came over with a bowl with a small opening, placed it on the table in front of her, pushed it towards her, and said softly, "Sister, I washed this bowl again. , it is clean, there is no gap here, you will not cut your mouth, you have traveled such a long way, you must be thirsty, you drink it." 𝘧𝗿𝚎e𝓌𝗲𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝗲𝒍. c𝐨𝗺
Even the best bowl of hospitality has been broken, and you can imagine what life has been like here.
Looking at the place where the wind leaks and the slightly sloping walls, in Shu Yu's opinion, this house is a dangerous building that will collapse at any time.
Shu Yu watched the little girl tugging at her sleeves nervously, as if it was a heinous thing to fill her with water in a broken bowl. She couldn't help but paused, reached out and touched her head, "Thank you."
Then he picked up the bowl and drank the water, followed by stunned for a while, then smiled, "This water is very sweet."
The little girl was happy, "This is mountain spring water, which my brother brings to the mountain every day." What she didn't say was that she was reluctant to drink it at home on weekdays, but only used it for her father's decoction.
Shu Yu was about to inquire about her family's situation, and when she heard the words, she pulled her to the side of the stool and sat down, and asked, "Do you have a brother? Besides your father, you and your brother, who else is in the family? ?"
"And my mother and my milk."
"Then, do you have a sister?"
Speaking of her elder sister, Sanya felt inexplicably depressed, she nodded slightly, "Eldest sister and second sister, eldest sister got married two years ago, second sister..."
She didn't go on talking, she lowered her head and grabbed her sleeves to rub and rub.
Shu Yu could see it, this was her performance when she was uneasy.
Is the second sister referring to herself? Does the little girl know about the second sister?
Shu Yu wanted to continue asking, but Sanya raised her head and urged her, "Sister, if you don't have enough water, I'll go and pour it for you."
She obviously doesn't want to talk about the second sister anymore, Shu Yu didn't force her, and quickly changed the subject, "Since there's no one in your house, why don't you lock the door, what if a thief comes in?"
Sanya blinked and shook her head, "We don't have anything in our house. My grandmother said that mice must walk around our house when they pass by."
