Mother Lu seemed to have heard nothing and continued, "Second, if you want to eat at my house, you need to buy ingredients or pay for the ingredients. The same applies to firewood."
The girl interjected again, "We also need to pay for firewood? You can pick it from the mountain for free."
"In that case, you can go get it yourself."
Everyone was stunned by the sharp words. The girl turned her head and looked at Lu Jueyu. Not giving her a chance to say anything, Lu Jueyu said, "Brother Han, I’m sorry, our small house can’t accommodate these two big Buddhas. You should take them to another place."
Han Yuheng had a headache. Among all the villagers, except for the Li family, only the Lu family has a vacant room. He planned to let the two girls live in Lu’s house and the four men live in Li’s house. Now that the situation has developed to this point, he is also feeling very uncomfortable.
After a while, the other girl finally looked up and said, "Sister, I apologize on behalf of my friend. We walked for a long time and were tired, that’s why she said those impolite words. We will obey the rules and pay for the ingredients and firewood."
Lu Jueyu raised her eyebrows and asked, "What’s your name?"
The girl smiled and said, "My name is Xiao Yiqing."
The moment Lu Jueyu heard the name, her mind went blank.
’Xiao Yiqing, isn’t this the name of the heroine? Isn’t there still three months before she comes? Has the plot changed because of me?’
After a few seconds, she came back to her senses and said, "Okay, you guys can stay here."
Everyone was stunned by her change of mind. Just now she didn’t agree to let them stay, but now she agreed without hesitation. Now that she had agreed, Mother Lu and Father Lu didn’t say anything more.
As for Lu Jueyu’s reason, it was also very simple. She would rather let the heroine live in her house than Li Chenmo’s. According to the plot of the novel, the heroine was rejected by the Lu family and had to go to the Li family. Staying there, the relationship between her and Li Chenmo got closer. Eventually, they fell in love with each other and got married.
Lu Jueyu didn’t care about it before, but now that she has decided to be with Li Chenmo, she won’t let the heroine live with her fiancé. Even if Li Chenmo decides to be with the heroine in the future, she doesn’t want them to live under the same roof for now.
Han Yuheng breathed a sigh of relief, looked at her gratefully, and said, "Then I’ll take my leave first. We still have to visit Li’s house."
Hearing this, Lu Jueyu suddenly remembered her soup, and said quickly, "Brother Han, I’ll go with you. Please wait a moment."
