Chapter 111 - Uncle Gives Pear
Chapter 111: Uncle Gives Pear
The sun was shining brightly today, and the weather was much warmer than the past few days.
When the monk entered the courtyard, he saw two children eating under a big tree with only a few yellow leaves left.
When they saw him enter, they hurriedly put down their chopsticks and looked at him suspiciously with their big round eyes.
The monk bowed to them before looking at the courtyard.
There was a huge garden inside and a few strange fruits that he had never seen in his life.
Apart from some remnant traces of ghost aura, there was not a single ghost in sight.
Moreover, it was different from what he had imagined.
He had thought that it would be colder here than elsewhere, but it turned out to be exceptionally warm.
He scanned his surroundings in confusion.
“Master, have you found the ghost?”
Lu Chuan asked impatiently.
The monk shook his head. “No.”
Perhaps, it was just a wandering soul who had passed by and stayed there for the night. When he happened to pass by and saw it, he mistakenly thought that it was a haunted house.
“Sorry for disturbing you!”
He apologized sincerely to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng waved her hand, hinting that she did not mind.
The monk explained to everyone, “Everything is fine here. It’s my mistake.”
“So it was a false alarm!”
Aunt Yu patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief for Lu Sheng and the rest.
The monk apologized to Lu Sheng again before leaving.
“That’s impossible!” Lu Chuan widened his eyes and hurried after the monk. “Master, take a good look. Those ghosts must have be hiding!”
He had seen everything clearly back then. How could there be no ghosts?
The monk had a good temper and replied gently, “Benefactor, I have indeed taken a closer look. There’s indeed nothing.”
Seeing that the result was not what they had guessed, everyone left with waning interest.
Lu Sheng sent everyone off with a smile before closing the door.
“Second Sister, why did that monk come to our house?”
Lu Jiang asked as he bit his chopsticks.
Lu Sheng told him to eat well and not bite his chopsticks. Then, she smiled and said, “He said that our fengshui is good, so he came to take a look.”
Lu Jiang replied with an ‘oh’, though he did not fully understand. Lu Xin lowered her head and continued eating. She was not interested in the other party’s affairs at all.
In the child’s eyes, there was only food.
“Second Sister, you eat too!”
Lu Jiang gave her a piece of meat before lowering his head and continuing to eat.
After Lu Sheng finished eating, she went to the warehouse to look at the ketchup she made.
As she was free recently, she plucked the ripe tomatoes from the garden to make ketchup.
There were also about ten cans of crab roe sauce, which were made from the river crabs she scooped out from the pond.
After raising them for only a few months, they had produced a lot of crayfish and river crabs.
She did not know if her master had gotten someone to help her renovate her shop. If it had been renovated, she could open her shop soon.
“Lu Sheng, Lu Sheng!”
Mdm Lian’s voice rang outside the door. Lu Sheng hurried to open the door.
She passed a bag of green pears over. “Your uncle plucked these for you.”
After hearing Mdm Lian’s words, Lu Sheng finally remembered that she had not gone to An Mu Village to visit her grandma yet.
She did not know how her grandma and uncle were doing.
“Thank you, Aunt!”
Lu Sheng received the bag of pears and opened it. She passed some to Mdm Lian and said, “Aunt, take two back and try them.”
“It’s alright, I have some at home too. They’re sour and I don’t like them.”
Almost every household in An Mu Village possessed these items, so they were not rare.
Seeing that she was not taking them, Lu Sheng could only close the bag.
