My restaurant connects to the demon realm, and I've become incredibly wealthy!

Chapter 339 The Wang Family Came to Cause Trouble

The advisor was initially worried that Miss Lu might not appreciate these crude little trinkets, but to his surprise, she actually accepted them.

The advisor's smile became more sincere, "I'm glad the young lady doesn't mind!"

"No problem! No problem! Please come in! The grain is still in the cellar, so we'll trouble you to carry it up yourself."

Lu Yaoyao led them to the underground warehouse in the backyard.

Lu Yaoyao led them to the backyard, and the advisor couldn't help but feel sorry for her when he saw the desolate courtyard.

A woman who has just been divorced by her husband's family will likely have a difficult life ahead of her.

The clerk sighed and said, "Miss Lu, if you ever need any help in the future, just come to the yamen and we will do our best to help you."

“Yes, Miss Lu, if you need anything, just come to the yamen to find us,” Constable Liang readily agreed.

Lu Yaoyao smiled and agreed, "Okay, I won't be polite to you anymore."

When they arrived at the underground warehouse, the advisor was shocked to see it filled with grain.

In times of famine, any household with stored grain is definitely wealthy.

This girl has so much food stored up; she's practically a millionaire!
I wonder if the young lady still needs servants?

He even considered becoming Miss Lu's servant, at least he'd get to eat!

Is that meat stored over there?

They even have fruit?

Are there any green vegetables?

The advisor clutched his chest, trying his best not to faint.

Their yamen hasn't had any meat in a long time, and this girl has so much meat here!
It’s so irritating that people are so different from each other!

Is that man who divorced Miss Lu blind?
The advisor kept complaining in his mind.

"Master, this is the 30,000 catties of grain I donated. I'll keep the rest for myself," Lu Yaoyao said.

"On behalf of Salesian, I thank you for your generosity and kindness, young lady!"

The advisor quickly bowed.

"Don't be shy, then you can start moving it." Lu Yaoyao stepped aside to direct.

The grain was moved very quickly, and it was all done in no time.

Before leaving, Lu Yaoyao took out half a pig and gave it to them so they could have a good meal.

The advisor and Constable Liang expressed their deepest gratitude as they left.

After seeing off the advisor and the others, Lu Yaoyao returned to her room.

There are still a few rooms that haven't been cleaned, so I'll have that person help her with the work!

Su Zui was forced to work, wiping the table with a rag. "Do you know how precious food is these days? Why did you give it all to the government?"

His identity meant he couldn't understand the thoughts of these ordinary people, so he didn't quite understand Lu Yaoyao's purpose in doing this.

In this year of famine, he is in a high position and cannot possibly go hungry, so he doesn't understand why the government is procuring so much grain.

Is there no food left in the government office?
With the imperial court distributing so many salaries every year, how could government offices be so poor?

Lu Yaoyao continued wiping the windows. "They're not taking this food back for themselves, but for the children and elderly at the orphanage. Those homeless elderly and children need to live."

"I think your true identity is not simple. You would never understand the suffering of ordinary people."

Lu Yaoyao already knew that this person's identity was not simple, otherwise, how could he afford to wear brocade black clothes?
Only high-ranking officials and nobles could afford to wear brocade.

Su Zui raised an eyebrow. He truly couldn't understand the suffering of ordinary people because what he did was monitor all officials, then torture and extract confessions, and kill people by skinning and dismembering them.

What he did was far removed from the actual lives of ordinary people.

"I really don't understand the lives of ordinary people," Su Zui readily admitted.

After wiping the windows, Lu Yaoyao started sweeping the floor. "How can an official be a good official if he doesn't understand the suffering of the people? You should go and see for yourself among the people."

She had witnessed too much suffering among the people, and perhaps she had become numb to it, so that it no longer stirred any emotion in her heart.

Within her power, she still wanted to help whenever possible. After wiping the table, Su Zui took the broom from her hand and swept the floor. "I don't need to know about the people's suffering."

He was afraid that if the people knew who he was, they would be terrified and wouldn't be able to get along with him.

He only needs to take care of those corrupt officials.

He indirectly helped the people in a way.

Lu Yaoyao didn't say anything more and continued cleaning.

"Lu Yaoyao! You shameless slut, get out here right now!"

Granny Wang was kicking the door, her hands on her hips.

She had just asked the official, and he said that all the grain was donated by Lu Yaoyao.

That spendthrift woman has so much grain in her hands, yet she doesn't give it to them, but instead donates it to those lowly people!

It’s really a shame!

Lu Yaoyao went to the kitchen, grabbed a cleaver, and suddenly opened the door.

"Ouch!" Granny Wang wanted to kick the door again, but Lu Yaoyao opened it instead.

She lost her footing and ended up doing a split, stretching the tendons in her thighs and screaming in pain.

"Oh! I thought it was someone else, but it's just Granny Wang. You've come to my house on business?" Lu Yaoyao said in a sinister tone.

Holding a gleaming kitchen knife, he sent chills down the spine of anyone who saw him.

Meng, the second daughter-in-law of Granny Wang, quickly helped Granny Wang up.

Pointing at Lu Yaoyao, she said, "Who are you trying to scare with that kitchen knife? This is disrespectful to your mother-in-law! There's not much food left in the house, so hurry up and bring out the grain, or your uncle will definitely not let you off the hook when he gets back!"

Over the years, the second branch of the family has enjoyed many good things with Lu Yaoyao. At first, because of her large dowry, they treated Lu Yaoyao well.

Ever since her mother-in-law took over all her dowry, the whole family treated her like a servant.

The tone of his voice when he spoke to her also changed.

Even now, when Meng speaks to her, she still acts superior.

"How can he possibly not let me off the hook? Have you all forgotten that I've already been divorced by your Wang family? I'm no longer anyone in your family."

"I advise you to leave now, or don't blame me for being ruthless."

Lu Yaoyao used to be a pushover, easily manipulated by Wang Hechuan's family.

She is not the Lu Yaoyao of the past.

Granny Wang wasn't afraid of Lu Yaoyao at all. "You wretched hussy! Just take the grain when I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? You're so ugly. Even if you're divorced, you're still a servant of the Wang family! You have no right to object to what your master tells you to do."

"My family, Hechuan, has tolerated you for so many years, and you're not even grateful! Now you dare to disrespect your mother-in-law! Believe me or not, I'll have the village chief drown you in a pig cage!"

Granny Wang held her chin up triumphantly, her old face full of wrinkles of resentment.

She refused to believe that Lu Yaoyao would dare to disobey her.

Over the years, Lu Yaoyao has done everything she can to win over her son's heart.

Lu Yaoyao raised her ugly face, laughing like a hungry ghost, "Servants, are you? I'll chop you all up!"

clap clap clap!
Lu Yaoyao used the back of her knife to slap Wang Pozi three times across the face, causing Wang Pozi's teeth to fly out and blood and tears to fly.

Ahhhhh!

Meng screamed in terror, "You, you, you, how dare you hit your mother-in-law!"

“I have nothing to do with her. She’s your mother-in-law, not mine! I’ll not only hit her, I’ll hit you too!”

Lu Yaoyao slapped her across the face.

Hitting someone with your hand hurts your hand, but slapping someone with a kitchen knife is more satisfying; only the enemy will feel the pain.

Ahhhhh!

Meng's face was slapped so hard it was a bloody mess, and she was terrified.
