Dahu ran to open the door with a face full of suspicion. Fortunately, Lu Sanzhu was the only one outside. His third aunt and the annoying Dabao were not there.

Lu Sanzhu flashed a rare, brilliant smile at Dahu. He patted the latter’s head perfunctorily, then walked around him and went straight to the kitchen.

“Oh my, I smelled the fragrance from far away.”

The shredded meat and egg noodles on the table were very eye-catching. Lu Sanzhu saw it at first glance, and his eyes immediately lit up. When he saw the oily soup in the basin, he was so hungry that he drooled.

Lu Sanzhu plopped down on a stool and smiled at them, “I was wondering why something was smelling so good. So it turns out that second sister-in-law’s family is cooking meat. These noodles are good. It’s appetizing just by appearance and smells even better than the ones cooked by the chefs in the restaurants in the county. Now that Erya is back. it’s really different. Second older brother’s family is living a better life now.”

As he spoke, he had already picked up the chopsticks on the table and was about to start eating, “It just so happens that I’m hungry. Let me try it.”

“Hey…” Madam Ruan wanted to stop him.

However, Shu Yu had already pushed Lu Sanzhu’s chopsticks down, “Wait a minute. ”

Lu Sanzhu was taken aback. He raised his head and met Shuyu’s smiling eyes. When he thought of how Shuyu had beaten the imposter up so quickly, he put down his chopsticks and smiled sycophantically at her, “Erya, I’m your third uncle. You see, your third aunt and I helped you expose that imposter today. It’s not too much to let me have some noodles to share in the joy, right?”

Shu Yu nodded, “Indeed.”

Lu Sanzhu’s eyes lit up, “Erya is still the most generous.”

After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks again.

“But I have something I need your help with. If you agree, I’ll let you take this big bowl of noodles back.”

Lu Sanzhu was stunned. Help?

He laughed dryly, “That’s where you’re wrong. As your third uncle, I’m just eating a bowl of your noodles. Why are there even conditions? You’re a junior, so it’s only right for you to be filial to your elders.”

“You’re right, I was wrong. As my third uncle, I should not have used noodles as a token for you to help your niece. So even if you don’t eat the noodles, you’ll definitely help, right? This is the care and love of an elder to a junior.”

Lu Sanzhu was speechless. Good Lord, his second brother’s family now had a sharp-tongued girl.

Shu Yu smiled and moved the bowl on the table to the side, further away from Lu Sanzhu.

Lu Sanzhu gritted his teeth. His stomach was growling from the aroma. In the past, it would have been fine if it was just his second sister-in-law and the two children. He could have snatched the noodles directly. At those times, he could even bring the basin of noodles back, let alone the big bowl.

However, Erya seemed to be a martial arts practitioner. It seemed that he could not just eat for free this time.

Lu Sanzhu sighed, “Alright, then tell me. What do you need my help with? But let me say this first, your third uncle doesn’t have any great abilities, so I might not be able to help you.”

Shu Yu stole a glance at Madam Ruan, then pointed outside and said to him, “Let’s talk outside.

“You’re being so mysterious,” Lu Sanzhu pursed his lips. Unwillingly, he stood up and walked out of the kitchen.

Shu Yu said to Madam Ruan, “You can eat noodles with Sanya and Dahu first. It won’t be good if it’s all soggy later.”

Madam Ruan opened her mouth and looked worriedly at the two of them as they went to the courtyard.

Lu Sanzhu was thinking about the bowl of noodles, so he said anxiously, “Alright, hurry up and tell me. What do you need my help with?”

“I want you to help me find out what the Ruan family’s purpose is in finding an imposter to impersonate Erya.”
