After the Fourth Young Lady heard this, she ran back to the Shu family’s side. The few of them chatted for a while, and immediately, two people went out.

Even if Shu Yu didn’t pay attention, she couldn’t help but notice the commotion.

She snorted lightly and washed the corn and pumpkin with Madam Hou, preparing to steam them.

Shu Yu planned to cook all the ingredients at once. In this weather, it would be fine even if she waited until noon tomorrow. The main reason was that he still had to work tomorrow and did not have the energy to cook again.

They didn’t have any oil, so they could only boil the vegetables with some water and salt.

Madam Hou was very happy, especially when the fragrance of the food wafted out, it instantly aroused the craving in her stomach. Ever since she was imprisoned, she hadn’t felt so good. Even if the official had given her steamed buns on the way, it would not be as good as this meal.

Shu Yu asked her as she lit the fire, “Did the Shu family cause any trouble while I was away?”

“How would they dare? Only the Eldest Young Lady and Fourth Young Lady ran over to mock us. I ignored them, and they didn’t dare to make a move, so they went back. They didn’t clean up the remaining two rooms and didn’t do any work. They just quarreled over there.”

“What are they arguing about?”

Madam Hou said disdainfully, “What else can they argue about? Who should they argue about? First Madam, Second Madam, and the two Legal Young Ladies thought that this was the Shu family of Dongan Province and were unwilling to do any work. They ordered Madam Li and the others to do things, but Concubine Li and Mrs. Liu were not willing. They had given birth to sons for the Shu family, so how could they be called to do anything?”

Two concubines were not enough to move, but wasn’t there still a concubine’s second daughter and a daughter-less Mrs. Yue?

The Second Young Lady was a cunning person, and she quickly directed her hatred towards Mrs. Xue.

Especially since she was Shu Yu’s adoptive mother, she didn’t even know that she had martial arts, causing them to suffer a huge loss just now.

Mrs. Xue instantly became the target of public criticism, but she was not willing to work and wanted to drag others down with her. After a while, they started quarreling.

Shu Yu t s face darkened when she heard that. “They’re still doing this at this juncture.”

Madam Hou nodded. “That’s right. Why don’t you take a look at this place and still put on airs.”

She felt that the first Madam, the wife of the family, was not as far-sighted as her, a concubine.

Shu Yu shook her head. “Ignore them. We’ll live our own lives anyway.”

“Yes.

The three of them quickly cooked dinner and sat down on the kitchen floor to eat.

Halfway through the meal, the Shu family members who had gone out to “borrow” food returned. However, they all returned empty-handed.

When the other members of the Shu family saw this, they made a fuss again.

Shu Yu and the others listened while eating. It was quite interesting.

The Shu family wanted Shu Yu and the others to order some food, but when they entered the kitchen and met Shu Yu’s cold eyes, they suddenly couldn’t say anything. The pain that had subsided in their bodies seemed to surge up again, making them not dare to provoke her anymore.

The Shu family went back dejectedly. After Shu Yu and the others finished eating and cleaned up, the sky was completely dark.

They didn’t have any candles or oil lamps, so they had nothing to do in the dark. The three of them went back to their rooms.

After Madam Hou entered, she bolted the door and pulled her daughter to lay out the bedding. Then she got into bed and slept comfortably..
