Li Shi opened her mouth, wanting to say that Cui Hua's brain had rusted after being taught by the old lady, and she didn't know how to think properly.
However, when she looked at the expressions of the others, they all seemed to disagree with her. She felt somewhat annoyed, "Alright, alright, if you want to rent a house, then rent it. It's your business, and I won't interfere, okay?"
Unexpectedly, Cui Hua still responded with an "Hmm."
Li Shi almost exploded with anger. None of her four children were easy to deal with, and none of them appreciated her good intentions.
She was tempted to leave, "Since you two have decided, then why bother telling us anything?"
Cui Hua said, "I haven't finished talking, and the matter of renting a house is not just about us."
"What do you mean?" Lu Dasong asked.
Cui Hua looked at Lan Hua and Er Niu, "During the day, I heard Lan Hua say that she wants to learn skills with Shu You... Shu Yuo, so she can work at the 'Yiren Pavilion'? And Er Niu, he has already met Master Wen and will go to the academy to study in a few days, right?"
Both of them nodded.
Cui Hua continued, "Since you will all be in the county in the future, why not live together for mutual support?"
Lan Hua and Er Niu were taken aback, and then their eyes lit up in unison, "Big sister means, we will rent a house together?"
"Yes."
Lu Dasong nodded decisively, "I think it's a good idea. Let's do that. I'll pay for Lan Hua and Er Niu's rent."
After all, the eldest daughter had already married and lived a tight and not very affluent life. If it were just her family of three living together, they could easily rent a small and cheap house. Now, with Lan Hua and Er Niu joining, they would need at least two more rooms. He couldn't ask Cui Hua to pay for it.
This time, Li Shi didn't say anything. She did want to take advantage of others, but she hadn't thought about exploiting her eldest daughter.
Lan Hua shook her head, "I don't need that. I can pay for myself. Big sister Shu You said that although I'm learning the skills from her, I can still earn at least three to four hundred wen a month by helping out with work. If I learn quickly and can start doing makeup for people in a few months, my wages will increase."
Er Niu stammered, "I, I..."
He seemed to be unable to, as he was still studying and his tuition had to be paid by his parents.
With the matter settled, Cui Hua would go and find a house tomorrow, and Lai Jin Hai would follow Lu Erbai to repair the house. As for the children, they could only trouble the old lady to look after them for a day. After all, Lu Sanzhu's family needed to repair the house, and Lu Sanzhu had to go to work, so only Liang Shi could go there to look after them. Therefore, Bao Ya would have to stay here and let the old lady take care of her for a few days.
Fortunately, the Lu family had servants, and the old lady had Hua Xian to help her. In addition, Lu Sixing was still here during the day. She wasn't too burdened.
After discussing the matter, Cui Hua returned to her room with her child in her arms to rest.
The Lu family finally quieted down. Everyone sank into their dreams, except for... Shu Yu.
Not long after Shuyu fell asleep, she started having nightmares.
In her dream, she repeatedly saw scenes of bidding farewell to Meng Yunzheng.
Then, a huge fire broke out, and sometimes she saw Meng Yunzheng at the age of ten, and other times she saw him as he was now, both trapped in the flames and unable to escape.
Shu Yu slept restlessly, and in the middle of the night, she suddenly woke up, gasping for breath as she looked at the pitch-black night, her mind hazy and disoriented. It took a while before she could gather her thoughts.
After a while, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and got up to pour herself a glass of water to drink.
