Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Sheng ignored Lu Daming and coldly eyed the other people. “Let go of him. All of you, leave now.”
Her tone was unruly, and it surprised everyone here.
Lu Daming and Madam Zheng spectated from a side, and their gaze landed on the meat placed on the pile of firewood.
They intended to take it away when all hell broke loose later.
“Little girl, we’re here to make a transaction, not to get into a fight. Let’s all give in. I’ll add another ten taels, how about that?”
A strong man spoke in a nice tone as walked forward.
Lu Sheng stared at him with an unmoved expression. She calmly spoke. “I said, let him go. All of you, leave now.”
Have they turned a deaf ear to my words?
Do they really want me to reveal my capabilities before they learn their ways?
The strong man’s face darkened, and he squinted when he spoke, “It seems like you want to do this the hard way.”
Lu Sheng decided not to waste any more time on them. She pulled the terrified Lu Jiang toward her, kicking the man in the process.
The other men also sprang into action and pounced on her.
Who knew, not long after, all of the muscular men were whining in pain on the floor.
Lu Daming and Madam Zheng stared at them with an astonished expression. It was as though they had seen a ghost.
On the other side, Sun Hu and his gang had wanted to create some trouble when they had heard of Lu Ran’s plan to return to school. However, when they reached the Lu family house, the sight of the whining men sent them running off.
As for the other villagers who came to spectate the scene, they had once again witnessed Lu Sheng’s brawniness.
Today, everyone in the village learned that they could offend anyone but Lu Sheng.
Lu Daming and Madam Zheng tried to run away in the midst of the chaotic situation, but Lu Sheng hurled them back.
“Remember, don’t come to my house in the future. Or else, I’ll make you bedridden forever so that you can’t harm anyone.”
The two knew that she was not joking, and their faces became pale from the fear.
Seeing that they stood no chance against Lu Sheng, the burly men gave up the thought of taking away the boy. Instead, they went to Lu Daming and Madam Zheng to claim their compensation.
Not only did the two have to return the ten taels, they also had to pay an additional ten taels for the burly men’s medical fees.
They had suffered a double loss.
No one had expected the once introverted Lu Sheng to be so strong.
After knowing what had happened, the Village Head summoned Lu Daming and Madam Zheng and severely reprimanded them.
Since that incident, whenever Lu Daming and Madam Zheng passed by Lu Sheng’s house, they always sped up.
After placating the two petrified children, who napped for a while, Lu Sheng went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
She made a dish from the vegetables, braised pork, and a plate of beef brisket with tomatoes and potatoes.
Then, she stewed the beef, intending to save it for dinner.
She woke the two children up for dinner.
The aroma of the food attracted the neighbors’ attention, who inquired about the dishes.
Lu Sheng listed the names of the dishes to them, many of which were unheard of. This piqued their curiosity even more.
Lu Sheng was not stingy either. She gave them a small bowl to try the food out. Feeling embarrassed, her neighbor gifted her a bowl of salted vegetables in return.
After lunch, Lu Sheng basked the remaining marinated beef brisket under the sun.
As for the steak, she planned on saving it for the night.
There were a lot of water bodies at Huang Yang Town as it experienced mostly rainy seasons. That was why Lu Sheng had to grab the opportunity of the sunny weather today to bask the beef.
After basking the beef, she made Lu Jiang and Lu Xin watch the beef under a tree to prevent stray cats or dogs from stealing the beef.
The two were still kids, who would easily forget things. After the delicious meal in the afternoon, they had practically forgotten about the morning’s incident. They obediently sat on a stool under the tree, keeping a watch on the beef.
Lu Sheng took the hoe and went to the back of the courtyard. There, she carved the shape of a pond on the ground.
She had to admit that even though Lu Dahua had not inherited too much land, the courtyard was huge. It even had a lake running at its back, so this made the courtyard an immensely good environment for agriculture.
