Chapter 137 was tripped up by a piece of broken wood

  "I told you so, I said the Old Third's family had ill intentions towards us! It's not even been a day since we split up, and they can't resist going to town to buy this and that. I said we should investigate carefully, search thoroughly, but all of you seemed to think I wanted to harm you. Now how about it, are you stupid?! " Xu Shi said with discontent, her two hands even more discontentedly throwing the half-plucked vegetables from her hand into the water basin on the ground.

  Most of the water in the basin was splashed out by the vegetable at once.

  Lu Shi was already unhappy about being made to work, and now her skirt hem had been splashed with water. She immediately jumped up, crying out in surprise: "Oh no, my clothes are all wet! This won't do, I have to hurry up and change into a new set right away! If not, I'll catch a chill later on, and then I'll have to spend money to find a doctor - what a waste!"

  As she spoke, Lu raised her foot and ran out.

  Xu thought of calling out to Lu, but changed her mind and instead stood up, brushed off the wrinkles on her clothes, and walked out.

  Chu Liwan was originally embroidering in the room and heard a sound outside the door, so she looked up and naturally found that it was Chu Lishou who had returned home.

  Just thinking that I couldn't get anyone to buy rouge for me made me feel unwell, and then hearing what Lady Xu said made me feel even more unwell.

  She didn't dare say anything more and could only get up to close the door.

  It just so happened that when Chu Liwen got up to close the door, she saw Xu Shi walking out towards the outside. She was wondering in her heart, and then heard Xu Shi, who had just gone out, shouting.

  "Second child's family, why are you so precious? It's just a few drops of water on your clothes, do you think it's a fire? Quickly wipe off the water and get out to help me cook with your mother! You're not sneaky, you won't secretly stash money to buy things. But I'm not that bad either. From now on, all of you come to my house to eat, I'll give you a meal with eggs!"

  Xu Shi originally wanted to scold Xu Shi for being lazy, but just as she came out, she happened to see Mei Hua carrying two pieces of cloth into the courtyard and saying a few words to Gui Hua, who was holding a jar in her arms, before entering the house.

  What was in the vat, Mrs. Xu wasn't clear about, but she saw clearly the two pieces of cloth in Mei Hua's hand.

  Although the color of that fabric is not very fresh, it's still new after all. If we take it home and make two sets of new clothes for our daughter and herself, I'm afraid they will still be quite luxurious.

  After Ke Chu Li bought the fabric and returned home, he didn't even greet his wife Xu Shi before entering their house, which infuriated her.

  "Alas, which good-for-nothing thing put the stick here? Is it intentional to trip me up?" Xu's sudden loud cry attracted the attention of onlookers.

  Following Xu's line of sight down to the ground, she found that there was indeed a piece of broken wood placed at her feet.

  However, the broken wood wasn't that big either. It wouldn't even cause a stumble, and if one were to really step on it, at most it would just be a bit uncomfortable. What Xu said was truly an exaggeration.

  Everyone knew that Xu was making a fuss over nothing, and after having a good laugh, they ignored her and continued to watch the lively scene of Chu Lishou's family moving things.

  Chu Lishou bought twenty kilograms of oil for the family, which filled up a big jar.
