《Farmer's Pampered Wife: Farming Crops To Raise A Bun》Chapter 42: Keep Pretending!
Advertisement
But how could it be so easy to snatch back the steamed buns that Luo-shi had already obtained? Without a word, she grabbed one and stuffed it into her mouth.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoye became extremely angry.
Damn it, she actually dared to eat her steamed bun?
Lin Xiaoye's palm immediately tightened. She stepped forward and said, "Luo-shi, since you've already eaten that bun, then there's nothing I could do. However, I'm telling you, that steamed buns aren't mine and they belong to Sister Hu. You can only pay for it since you've already taken a bite."
After she had said that, Lin Xiaoye immediately rolled her eyes and her face showed an indifferent expression.
Upon hearing this, Luo-shi didn't believe it. She chewed the steamed bun in her mouth, then said, "Huh, damn bitch, you dare lie to me? This steamed bun was by your side, go on, keep pretending!"
Lin Xiaoye's grip tightened.
This damned Luo-shi was like a rice worm. No way, her steamed buns couldn't just be eaten by a rice worm in vain.
Suddenly, Lin Xiaoye smiled: "I'm pretending? What am I supposed to pretend for? It just so happens that the steamed bun is right next to me. If you think that I'm pretending, then I will let Sister Hu tell you."
Lin Xiaoye then wink at Sister Hu, who was not far away and Sister Hu immediately understood.
She quickly ran over and slapped her thigh, "Aiyo, Luo-shi, what are you doing? This food is what I'm going to give to my son and my family when I get back, but you ate it! So you better compensate me! Pay me for the steamed buns you've eaten!"
Seeing that, Lin Xiaoye immediately pursed her lips and smiled.
Sister Hu's acting skills are really amazing!
Luo-shi was immediately dumbfounded, she had not even finished eating the steamed bun in her mouth and looking at the remaining steamed buns in her hand, she immediately became flustered.
"Is-is this steamed bun really bought by you?"

Hu Sister-in-Law jumped up as her face turned red, "If this isn't mine, then who else could it be? You guys from the Lin family aren't good people, you can even steal from someone? Compensate me for the steamed buns you ate!"
As she said that, Hu Sister-in-Law went forward and snatched the other steamed buns from Luo-shi's hands. Now, Luo-shi didn't dare resist and could only look on blankly as the steamed buns in her hands were snatched by someone else when she had just eaten a mouthful. She glanced at the bun she had already taken a bite and then quickly stuffed it into her mouth.
At this moment, Hu Sister-in-Law said: "Luo-shi, we are all from the same village, but I never thought that your Old Lin family would actually be able to do such a thing, let's see if I won't go to the village chief to report this!"
After she spoke, Hu Sister-in-Law turned around and angrily went to find the village chief. This time, Luo-shi was extremely anxious.
Although she had her own thoughts and was bad tempered, she still wants her reputation.
Moreover, if she went back and let Sun-shi know that she had stolen other people's steamed buns and had even secretly eaten one herself, it would be a miracle if Sun-shi won't take care of her. By then, wouldn't she suffer?
At this time, Luo-shi could finally think clearly.
She quickly turned around and looked at A'Lan.
"A'Lan, you have to help your cousin-in-law. If the villagers find out that I did this kind of thing, our family's reputation would be ruined. You're currently living in the Lin family, won't it ruin your reputation as well?"
Hearing her words, A'Lan became unhappy, when Luo-shi was fighting over for those steamed buns, she didn't say that she would give her a piece when she was obviously standing at the side while looking at the steamed buns, didn't she just let her swallow a lot of saliva?
A'Lan snorted.
"This has nothing to do with me. You were the one who stole it just now, not me. And even if your reputation would be ruined, it would only affect your family's reputation. What does this have to do with me?"

After saying that, A'Lan touched her neat bun.
Luo-shi suddenly panicked, seeing that Hu Sister-in-Law was about to leave, Luo-shi quickly held onto A'Lan's hand.
"A'Lan, just help your cousin-in-law. If worse comes to shove, after we go back, this cousin-in-law will think of a way to secretly get two eggs for you, how about that?"
As soon as she heard that there were eggs, A'Lan's eyes lit up.
When she was at home before, her mother told her that if she came to Sun-shi, she needed to eat a lot of good food, especially eggs. That way, she would look even more beautiful.
But when A'Lan turned around and took a closer look at Luo-shi, she immediately frowned.
"How can you get eggs? Don't you always have to give all your family's money to my aunt? Moreover, doesn't she count the eggs in the house every day?"
A'Lan narrowed her eyes, then she said, "Oh, so you were secretly hiding some money behind my aunt's back?"
Luo-shi quickly waved her hand as soon as she heard her words: "No, that's not true, how could I dare to hide private money? Didn't I go back to my maiden's house a while ago? My mother doted on me, so she gave me one or two copper coins to buy some eggs to nourish my body. I only have two. If you promise not to tell your aunt and help me with this matter, I'll definitely give those eggs to you when we get back."
Who would go against free eggs? Regardless if what Luo-shi said now was true or not, it wasn't a bad thing for A'Lan. Furthermore, after doing this, her days in the Lin Family would be much better.
A'Lan laughed. "Alright, we're all one family, so how could you talk like that?"
With that, A'Lan took a step forward and looked at Lin Xiaoye, who was staring at them.
"We've already met last time, but you still didn't know that I am your distant aunt. Just now, your eldest aunt doesn't know that the bun isn't yours. She treats you as if you were her own daughter and wasn't so courteous towards you, so if you still consider that your mother is in the Lin Family and that your surname is Lin, then you should forget about this matter."
When she heard this, Lin Xiaoye immediately felt shocked.
Distant aunt? Why didn't she know she had a distant aunt? Also, this aunt could say such words. It seems that this person isn't simple.
However, she really didn't plan to get entangled with them. After all, those people who went to the town would be back soon. If more people saw this, she really wouldn't be able to explain it.
Thinking about this, Lin Xiaoye said, "Since my distant aunt had already spoken, I will naturally give her some face. However, you have to return the money for the steamed bun you ate just now to Sister Hu. I really can't help you with this one because I don't call the shots."
Then, she immediately turned her head and shouted towards Sister Hu, but Hu Sister-in-Law wanted to do a full set of show, so she refused to turn back. She only waited for Lin Xiaoye to personally pull her back and whisper a few words into her ear before Sister Hu walked back angrily.
"If it wasn't for Old Huo's wife, I wouldn't have let it go. However, you have to give me back the money for the steamed bun. My Mother-in-Law has been sick recently and there are a lot of places that need money."
Hearing that, Luo-shi hurriedly retreated two steps.
"Um, Hu Sister-in-Law, you should know what kind of person my Mother-in-Law is. I've been a daughter-in-law in the Lin Family for so many years...I...where would I get money?"
