After selling myself, I became the head of the family

Chapter 48 Returning Home
  Time passed quickly, and half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. Looking at Aunt Cai who was concentrating on choosing vegetables, Su Yueyue couldn't say anything.

"Yueyue, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing her lingering beside him for a long time without saying a word, Grandma Cai couldn't sit still.

"Mommy, I, I have something..."

"What's wrong with you kid today? You're hesitant to speak."

Putting down the vegetable leaves in her hand, Aunt Cai frowned and looked at Su Yueyue.

"I, I want to take a day off today. I want to go back and see my grandma and two younger sisters."

Su Yueyue was a little embarrassed when she spoke. She had only been here for half a month and it was really not good for her to want to go back.

"Yeah……"

Aunt Cai paused and carefully recalled the time when Su Yueyue came. It had indeed been half a month before she nodded.

"Okay, you can go back and take a look today, but you have to come back at night, and you have to make medicine for the young master. You can't forget it."

"Okay! Thank you, mama!"

Su Yueyue's face was filled with joy. She couldn't help but hugged Aunt Cai and kissed her. She was so frightened that she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

How has she ever met such a little girl in all these years?

When she realized that what she had done seemed to be a bit excessive, Su Yueyue was also shocked.

"Mommy, I'm sorry, I was a little too excited."

The girl blushed and stammered.

"Okay, okay, go back quickly. Don't forget to come back early in the evening."

Aunt Cai pushed her with a straight face, and then took out a small silver coin from her purse.

"Take this silver coin and buy some things to take back."

"Mommy, no need, I still have some here."

Su Yueyue waved her hands repeatedly and then left the yard as if running away.

Looking at her fleeing back, Grandma Cai shook her head, but felt warm in her heart.

It would be great if this little girl was his granddaughter.

Not seeing Su Yueyue until lunch, Lu Xingzhou asked with some confusion, "Mammy, where is Su Yueyue?"

"Yueyue has been here for half a month. I gave her a day off and asked her to go back and see her family."

Aunt Cai looked at Lu Xingzhou's slightly frowned eyebrows and laughed secretly in her heart.

"Why didn't I know about this?"

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in the young man's tone that he didn't even notice.

"Perhaps she is afraid of you, so she only came to ask me. Is there anything you want to do with Yueyue?"

Aunt Cai looked at him with a smile, just waiting for Lu Xingzhou to answer.

"Nothing."

The young man was shocked to realize that he actually cared about Su Yueyue's stay, and he was inevitably a little overwhelmed.

Perhaps it was because he hadn't been in contact with other people for so long that he actually started to care about a little girl.

It's really, really strange.

"Since there's nothing wrong, let's eat quickly, sir. I'll heat up the soup later."

"Ah."

Lu Xingzhou felt a little uncomfortable with one person missing, but it was clear that he and Aunt Cai had dinner together in the past.

Su Yueyue went to the pastry shop with a hundred coins in her pocket.

After buying a total of four boxes of snacks, she still had sixty coins left. She spent another twenty coins to cut a pound of pork, and then she took a bullock cart to Shantou Village.

Because the ox cart did not belong to Shantou Village, she only paid a penny and got off at the intersection, then walked back to the village carrying her things.

It was cooking time in the village, smoke was rising from every household, and the men in the village were chatting in the square at the entrance of the village.

Old man Su and several other old men sat on the stone benches beside the square, smoking cigarettes and chatting about other families' business.

"Brother Su, is the Su Yueyue from your second son's family really sold to the widower by your daughter-in-law to be his wife?"

Someone narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Isn't that right! That girl was originally a black-hearted person, but now she was betrayed by her mother. Why didn't she go to the Yamen to sue her mother?" Old man Su didn't say anything, but other people on the side spoke. Moubo said.

"Then the fire in Su Laoer's house might be retribution. Otherwise, why is it that her house is flooded when everyone else is fine?"

Someone clicked his tongue twice and spat next to him.

"That's not clear. Maybe one day I offend someone and the water will run out of the house, right, grandpa?"

Su Yueyue stood behind Old Man Su with a smile, which made the hairs of several old men stand on end.

It's really scary to be caught talking behind someone's back, only to be caught by the real person.

Old man Su almost dropped his cigarette to the ground. After hearing her words, he felt a chill on his back. Then he tightened his grip on the cigarette and did not speak.

"Su, Su girl, are you coming back to see your mother?"

"Yes, my master asked me to take a day off today. I just wanted to come back and take a look, but I didn't expect that my grandpa would be here talking to you about my affairs."

Su Yueyue still looked at them with a smile. The fourteen-year-old girl's smile made a group of people who had lived for most of their lives feel creepy. Then they all got up and said goodbye and went home.

Seeing them leaving, Su Yueyue didn't stay any longer. She just gave Old Man Su a cold look and walked past him carrying her things.

Seeing her back, Old Man Su had a gloomy look and almost broke the cigarette in his hand in half.

The atmosphere in the Zhang family is a bit solemn at the moment.

Today is a day off for the academy, but if Ruoan comes back and finds that Yueyue is gone, I don't know what will happen.

This is what Aunt Zhang is most worried about.

She has also asked Shuzhen that Yueyue does not have that kind of feelings for Ruoan now. She can't let Yueyue marry Ruoan in exchange for repaying her kindness.

But now Yueyue has gone to someone else's house to be a maid. If An asks, what can they say?

While he was struggling, he heard a knock on the door.

Su Qing and Su Jing were the quickest and hurried up to open the door.

"Sister!"

"Sister is back!"

When the little girls saw it was Su Yueyue, their eyes suddenly lit up and they shouted happily.

As soon as she heard their shouts, Feng Shuzhen walked out of the kitchen holding a stick.

"Yueyue?"

"Auntie."

Seeing her family again after half a month, Su Yueyue's statement that she was not sad could only be a lie.

But at this moment, she didn't shed any tears.

Grandma's legs have improved a lot, and the two younger sisters have gained some weight compared to when they were at home.

That's enough.

"Yueyue, why are you back?"

Zhang Haotian looked surprised. After all, he had inquired about it. After a general maid sold herself, she became a member of the master's family. Not to mention going home to see her relatives, even wanting to go out was not allowed by the master's family.

Why did Yueyue come back today?
  "I thought if Brother An was going to have a day off today, I wanted to come back and take a look today."

Speaking of taking a look, Su Yueyue was just worried that he wouldn't be able to accept it if he knew she was going to be a maid.

Even if there was no possibility between the two of them, she didn't want Aunt Zhang to be in trouble.

At least now is not the time to tell him the truth.

"Good boy, come inside quickly."

Aunt Zhang knew that Su Yueyue was worried that Ruo'an would no longer be interested in studying after knowing the truth when she came back, and she felt moved in her heart.

"Aunt Zhang, these are the pastries and pork I bought. Take them."

As Su Yueyue spoke, she handed over the pork and two boxes of pastries.

Of the remaining two boxes, she planned to ask her sister to send one to Xie's house.

After all, if it hadn't been for Aunt Yang who took my grandma to pick up fungi, my family wouldn't have been able to survive until now.

The remaining box was reserved for the sisters to satisfy their cravings.
