Lady Gu 10,000 Years

The train was faster than the ox carriage, arriving at the entrance of the village at night.
Not to mention the poor little village, even in the city, horse carriages were extremely rare and precious items. Even if it was a carriage so simple and crude that it was hard to explain, the villagers would still feel envious upon seeing it.
“Aiya, it's Little Feng and Ah Wan, right? Did they come back by train?” An aunt surnamed He heard the sound of wheels turning and came out with her half-eaten bowl to see the commotion.
Aunt Xu, who was next door, also came out with curiosity. He held his two-year-old grandson in one hand and held the steamed yam in the other. As he chewed, he said, “The Old Yu family has grown up. They even took the train.”
Aunt He ate a mouthful of coarse rice. “Did the Old Yu family cook something delicious again? It's very fragrant.”
Recently, Yu's old house often smelled of meat. They could smell it even from half a village away.
Ever since Third Junior Yu was taken away and First Junior Yu broke his leg, the days of the Yu family had plummeted. No one expected that they could still return despite already being a salted fish.
Of course, it was too early to say that they had returned. The Yu family did not even earn enough money to take care of Uncle Yu's feet. However, in the eyes of others, being able to eat meat was already considered a way out of poverty.
“Mendesah.” Aunt He looked at Aunt Xu. “Why doesn't his family eat meat anymore?”
In the past two years, the Zhao Family was the only family in the village that ate meat.
Coincidentally, Auntie Zhang came out with a basin filled with bath water. When he heard this, he raised his voice as if he wanted someone to hear it. “The book is gone. Where can he eat meat?”
Aunt He and Aunt Xu laughed together.
Not far from there, Madam Zhao, who was rolling an egg over a bruise on her face, naturally heard the commotion. He was so angry that his face, which dropped by a third, swelled up again.
“Driven (pfft)!” Madam Zhao, whose front teeth were pulled out by Madam Jiang, spat out. “You dare laugh at me! All right, just wait! When Ah Heng hits the jackpot, you'll regret it!”
The Yu family actually beat him up and even extorted a pig from him! When Ah Heng returns, she will divorce the poor girl!
…
Yu Wan naturally did not know about the movements of the Zhao family. Even if he did, he wouldn't care. She was not the Host, so she did not care whether she could marry Zhao Heng or not. Right now, he only wanted to earn money so that his family would not lack clothes and food, so that his uncle could go to the Capital to take care of his feet.
Even before the siblings entered the old house, they could already hear Little Bruiser babbling and the youngest daughter making some noises from time to time.
“Zhenzhen is more talkative than ever,” Yu Feng said emotionally. Even though he still didn't say it well, he still liked to talk. When did this start? It seems after the two families made peace?
In fact, even though the two families had made peace, the only person who really accompanied her sister to play was Little Bruiser.
But his sister was even happier.
They are too.
“Kak!” Little Bruiser watched Yu Wan and pounced at her like a whirlwind. She hit him and acted shy. Then he looked at Yu Feng timidly and said, “Kakak.”
The youngest daughter also turned around. “Kak... Large..”.
Bang out! He crashed.
Yu Feng quickly took his sister and entered the house with Yu Wan and Little Bruiser.
A strong smell of boiled meat was smelled in the room, and the four brothers immediately felt hungry.
“Why were you guys so long?” Yu Song entered from the back door with a bit of firewood.
Yu Feng helped his brother put firewood into the charcoal basin. “We are delayed by something.”
“What is it?” Yu Song asked. “Did someone bully you again?”
“Omong empty what do you spray?” Yu Feng glared at his younger brother, but he knew in his heart that his younger brother's guess was correct. Today, they were almost intimidated, but the ending was a bit silly.
“What are you laughing at?” Yu Song frowned. Before his brother could answer, his gaze was fixed on the blanket that Yu Feng had placed on the chair after entering the house. “Do you buy a blanket?”
“Ehem.” Yu Feng could not say that Yu Wan was the one who shamelessly got it from someone's carriage and dragged it out, so he could only give a faint “mhm”.
“Where is mom?” Yu Wan asked Little Bruiser.
Little Bruiser puffed his chest and said, “He's counting money with Aunt at home!”
It turned out that Miss Bai came today. He was here to try Uncle Yu's boiled food. Uncle Yu had made a boiled duck, a plate of boiled meat, a bowl of boiled lotus root with dried tofu, and a pot of boiled goat meat with carrots.
Uncle Yu's dishes were not only delicious, but they also looked good. Miss Bai is very satisfied. He immediately decided to order all the dishes he tasted and pay half of his money up front. He'll pay the other half after the birthday party.
However, the price of the dish increased greatly now. Who knows what will happen in three days? After taking out the cost, they would probably only receive less than a tael of silver.
But it doesn't matter. There are many guests at the birthday party. If they can use this opportunity to make their own name, their business will be even more popular in the future.
After Aunt Yu and Madam Jiang finished counting the deposit that Miss Bai had given them, they held hands and left the room with blushing cheeks.
Yu Wan, on the contrary, had already started to think of where he could order the ingredients for three days later.
…
Snow fell in the long alley.
A luxurious carriage stopped in front of an ancient manor. On the plaque at the entrance of the mansion, there is a large “Yan Manor” written in new gold paint.
“Nona, we are here.” The middle-aged maid got off the carriage and lifted the curtain for the girl inside. “Salju down. Miss, watch your step.”
With one hand holding the heater and the other hand on the arm of the middle-aged servant, Yan Ruyu got off the carriage on a beautiful wooden bench. He looked at the manor that had been renovated and softly said, “Three years, I finally got home.”
The middle-aged maid wiped her reddened eyes. “Yes, we're finally home!”
“My daughter!” A noble lady dressed in a light purple robe walked out with the help of a servant, trembling with excitement.
When Yan Ruyu saw him, her eyes immediately turned red and she knelt down. “Mother!”
Madam Yan grabbed her arm and helped her stand up. He choked as he said, “Stop bending and let me see you all right!”
Yan Ruyu raised her head and revealed a teary face. She was very pretty to begin with, and when she shed her tears, it completely broke one's heart.
“Your body weight is down. You have suffered these last few years. Madam Yan touched her face.
“Your daughter is unfilial. I did not return early and caused Father and Mother to suffer.” Yan Ruyu shook her head with tears.
The Yan Clan had been in an accident a few years ago, and it had only stabilized a few days ago. There were only people who came to refine this manor after everything stabilized. Madam Yan was much more haggard than she was three years ago, but when she thought about her future glory, she felt that the difficulty was nothing.
Madam Yan raised her eyebrows and said, “My daughter has given birth to Young Master Yan's blood and flesh. From now on, you will be the most revered mistress of the dynasty. I have sent you an invitation. Three days later, it will be your welcoming banquet. I will tell everyone in the Capital that the daughter of the Yan family has returned. Young Master Yan's fiancee has returned!”
