Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 595: Chapter 595: My Father’s Surname is Lu Chapter 595: Chapter 595: My Father’s Surname is Lu Madam Hou looked at the eggs in her hand with astonishment. In the past, she wouldn’t have given a second thought to a few eggs; she even had experiences where she would only eat the egg white and discard the yolk.

But after experiencing so much, Madam Hou knew just how precious these few eggs were.

It had been months since she had eaten any eggs, and now, in her eyes, they were a rare delicacy.

Madam Hou lifted her head and looked at Shu Yu, “All for us?” Four of them, eh? Which ordinary peasant family would be so generous as to give away four eggs at once?

Madam Hou furrowed her brows, “This is not good, you’ve just recognized your family and to give away so many eggs to us, what if they think poorly of your character?”

Although she craved them and was even more eager to peel one for the Sixth Young Lady, Madam Hou still restrained herself and spoke to Shu Yu about some necessary social niceties.

Because she had known loss, Madam Hou hoped even more that Shu Yu could hold onto such family members.

Shu Yu, however, waved her hand dismissively, “It’s okay, my Grandmother specifically prepared them for you. She heard that you took care of me when I was little and is also grateful to you. My Grandmother said, ‘While they can’t give or help much, occasionally improving your meals is something they can do.ʼ”

Shu Yu had money on hand, and as long as the conditions allowed, after taking the main road, eating better wasn’t a problem.

Madam Hou didn’t speak for a while. Back then, she had only given young Shu Yu a few steamed buns and pastries. For this kindness, she had already ‘asked’ Shu Yu for compensation on the exile journey.

But now, it seemed that these eggs wouldn’t just be for a few days, but occasionally there might be more?

Madam Hou glanced at her daughter beside her, then took a deep breath and accepted the eggs, “Alright, then I won’t be polite.”

She could repay the favor some other time.

For now, the most important thing was to regain her health and try hard to survive. Especially for the Sixth Young Lady, who was still young and hadn’t completely grown up yet, she needed to eat better.

She expressed her thanks again before she and the Sixth Young Lady began to peel the eggs.

Since there were many people around, Madam Hou purposely fell a few steps behind to avoid drawing attention.

The two ate as they followed Shu Yu towards the wasteland.

After finishing the eggs, Madam Hou suddenly remembered what she had originally wanted to say, “I almost forgot, Third Sister…”

Shu Yu interrupted her, “I’ve now recognized my ancestors and returned to my clan, and although my official household registration hasn’t been transferred, I don’t want to be a daughter of the Shu family. My father’s surname is Lu, from now on I’ll go by Lu Shuyu, you can just call me Yu. I’m no longer the Third Sister of the Shu family.”

Madam Hou paused upon hearing this, then nodded, “That’s right, it’s not easy being a daughter of the Shu family; I’ll call you Yu then.”

“Mm.”

“Yu, after you left yesterday, something happened at the Shu family. The Second Young Lady, upon learning that you recognized your ancestors and returned to your clan, was so angry that she cursed loudly and then fainted, vomiting blood.”

Shu Yu stopped in her tracks, “Fainted?”

“Yes, all of us were taken aback.”

“Then what happened next? Did they call a doctor?”

At this, Madam Hou let out a scornful laugh, “About calling a doctor, they discussed it for a long time, right in front of the unconscious Second Young Lady. It was only after the Second Young Lady regained consciousness that they reluctantly went to find a village physician whose medical skills weren’t very good.”

Calling a doctor required money – where would the Shu family get it?

Later, when the Second Young Lady awoke, having no choice, she used her rations for the day to have someone call the physician.

This physician was also a convict exiled here. Besides him, there were no other doctors in Righteous Dao Village.
