Chapter 520: Chapter 520: An Undesirable Person?

Song Yunuan: "Are you always this by the book?"

Then it wouldn’t be good to break her rules.

Song Yunuan accepted the food, and Luo Shuxiu sighed with relief, pointing to another canvas bag and said gently, "Little Nuan, this bag contains soap, laundry powder, towels, handkerchiefs, and also shampoo paste I made myself. Although it’s not as good as the ones you buy, it still works pretty well. I hope you don’t mind using it."

Luo Shuxiu had heard about the Song family’s situation, saying they’d opened a clothing factory, and an uncle managed a pharmaceutical factory, so the family had good conditions.

Seeing it now, it really seemed to be the case.

Standing there, she truly was radiant and distinguished.

Song Yunuan was quite surprised.

The shampoo she used was supplied internally; her youngest aunt had got her several bottles, which were also quite good.

Then she bought some more in Xiangjiang.

She opened the bottle; it was a paste, a very pretty orange color, and it had a light fragrance when she sniffed it.

Song Yunuan fell in love with it immediately.

She thanked Luo Shuxiu happily.

Luo Shuxiu, seeing that Song Yunuan really liked it, was also very happy.

Her mother-in-law and youngest aunt also used it, but they complained while using it.

Luo Shuxiu told Song Yunuan that next Sunday she would make dumplings and bring some for her to eat.

Song Yunuan was quick to decline, mainly because she wasn’t sure if she would be around that day.

After all, the progress at Kurt Gymm was going very smoothly.

It was likely that they’d start signing contracts in a few days.

Moreover, on Saturdays and Sundays, her grandmother would also make dumplings, and she refused.

She said she had enough of dumplings and didn’t know if she would get scolded for it.

Luo Shuxiu said, "It’s fine, if you’re not there, I’ll give them to one of your dormmates. I’ve got portions for them too, and the meat sauce and beef jerky I brought are for you to share with everyone. When you’re away from home, even with classmates, you need to give and take to get along well."

Song Yunuan felt her granny really made good karma.

If she were not so capable of stirring things up, being alone in Beidu to study, it would have been great to have such a kind and gentle person looking after her.

She was just about to mention her own family situation when someone called for Song Yunuan to gather.

Song Yunuan couldn’t just meet someone and tell them, "You don’t have to fuss, my family has a house in Beidu. My grandma is here to accompany me while I study, and I have two companies?"

That would be ungrateful and like taking advantage of others.

Social interactions involve giving and taking; that’s how you get moving.

Song Yunuan affectionately said, "Aunt Luo, I’m heading to class now. Let’s talk again when we have time."

Luo Shuxiu: "Little Nuan, I work as a temporary worker in the family housing logistics. If you need anything, you can come find me there."

She would have to discuss with her husband that night. Little Nuan had good grades, reportedly even ranking first in the province.

She’s still a person from the provincial city, and it had been many years since she’d been home.

Although her parents were no longer around, she still had brothers and sisters. Her mother-in-law and youngest aunt looked down on them and never let them visit.

Her eldest sister and eldest brother had visited once but never came again.

In the evening, Luo Shuxiu cautiously discussed with her husband, Lin Han, that someone from their hometown had been admitted to Beidu University, topping the provincial city. She wanted to invite the individual over for dinner on Sunday and wondered if that would be alright.

Lin Chen was reading a book and instinctively frowned.

He didn’t even ask who it was since topping the charts wasn’t anything special.

Every year, there’s always someone who ranks first.

Lin Han simply said impatiently, "I’m a teacher, and she’s a student. If people find out she’s coming to my house for dinner, it doesn’t look good."

Luo Shuxiu hung her head in disappointment.

But she understood, after all, it was between a teacher and a student.

Luo Shuxiu’s son, Lin Haoze, was 14 years old this year, a lean young teenager.

He was originally doing homework in his room when he happened to come out and saw this scene, furrowed his brows, but also said nothing.

Mother Lin heard this as well and immediately became displeased, reproaching Luo Shuxiu, "How many times have I told you? Tough environments produce tricky people, and your poor relatives from back home are only out for their advantage.

Can’t you just interact with them less? That classmate has no family relation to you; you just know her because she’s from the same hometown.

But what does that really mean?

Does it mean her character is good? What if she’s not honest when she comes to our house? And what if she wants to eat at our house every day? What would you do then?"

Lin Li also chimed in unhappily, "Yeah, sister-in-law, you always can’t distinguish right from wrong, can’t draw the line.

What if a wolf gets into the house?

Even if we put them in the police station, our Lin family would still be embarrassed. I’m telling you, Luo Shuxiu, you’re not allowed to bring shady and messy people into our house."

All of a sudden, Mother Lin walked over, angry, and pointed at Luo Shuxiu, "My beef jerky and meat sauce that I put in the cabinet, why is there less of everything? Did you give that food to that so-called countryman of yours?"

Lin Li stamped her foot angrily, "Mom, you see, when I said I wanted to take some to my colleagues, you wouldn’t allow it. But now, look, my sister-in-law has given it to her hometown folk. Are you happy now?"

She turned to Luo Shuxiu, "The things my big brother worked so hard to earn and buy, how can you casually give them to your people back home? All those pore and sour relations we haven’t interacted with for hundreds of years, yet you’re so willing. I think you’re just a fool."

Mother Lin’s face turned the color of iron with anger, "From now on, you’re not to interact with people from your hometown. It’s really killing me that you just give things away. Is it your money? Is this your house?"

Lin Li spoke mockingly, "Your poor and sour countryman sure has no shame, taking whatever is given without refusal, so greedy. Don’t they know how to decline for once? But of course, having grown up poor, they probably haven’t eaten meat before."

Lin Haoze’s face turned red with anger as he glared at his grandmother and aunt.

"You look down on people so much? Just because my mom’s people can’t afford meat doesn’t mean they eat it illegally, right? So what if they can’t afford meat? Is it a crime?"

Lin Li went up and slapped Lin Haoze, "You little brat, I wasted my affection on you. You’re taking the side of your mom’s countryman whom you’ve never even met?"

Mother Lin pushed Lin Li away, "Let me tell you, Lin Li, if you dare to hit the back of my grandson’s head again, you and I are far from done."

Lin Li stamped her foot hard and was about to retort.

Meanwhile, Lin Han slammed his book on the desk, "Can’t you keep it down? I have to teach class tomorrow."

Though their home was of a decent size by his standards, it felt cramped because he lived there with his parents and sister.

For the sake of his son’s studies, he had vacated his study room.

And now, even preparing for his classes wasn’t peaceful.

Lin Han looked over at the flustered Luo Shuxiu with an impatient expression, "I hope you take the words I said earlier to heart."

Luo Shuxiu’s face was somewhat pale, but she nodded nonetheless.

But Little Nuan wasn’t an unwholesome person at all.

Her family owned a clothing factory.

But thinking of her youngest aunt’s behavior, always looking down on his hometown people,

Even if Little Nuan’s family owned a clothing factory, she would still be scorned, and the mockery would probably never end.

Thus, the words Luo Shuxiu wanted to say in her defense were swallowed back down.
