Chapter 745: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 745: Parents Have Arrived
Shu Yu had never met Da Niu's wife, but he had mentioned her more than once. Moreover, after reuniting with her family, as Da Niu's fiancée, she had sent a hand-embroidered handkerchief as a gift through Da Niu.
Due to not officially marrying Da Niu, she couldn't come to the Lu family openly. But she still sent her gift to Shu Yu's hands, which was much friendlier than her uncle's attitude.
Therefore, although the old lady hadn't had time to prepare a gift, she had made arrangements. Before leaving Jiangyuan County, she entrusted it to Master Xiang.
It wasn't just a gift for Da Niu, she also prepared one for Ding Yuehua, who got married at the end of the year as well.
Shu Yu knew that the old lady felt a bit regretful, so she smiled and said, "It's alright. We'll be able to go back soon, and then we can make it up to our sister-in-law."
The old lady thought of the fever pack prepared by Ah Yu. As long as she handed over that thing, she would be innocent.
Her spirits lifted, and she turned to Shu Yu. "You mentioned waiting for the weather to get colder before giving it to Master Qi. Has it suddenly gotten cold enough today?"
"Yes, I'll prepare it in the next few days and go to the county to find Master Qi then."
Shu Yu had planned to go to the county in a couple of days, but unexpectedly, a mule cart arrived in Zhengdao Village the next day.
It was still early in the day, and Shu Yu was organizing the name register at the estate.
Since she wasn't sure if she would be able to return the same day when she went to the county, she had planned to take a day off.
To be on the safe side, she entrusted the registration work to Wang Changdong.
Wang Changdong had seen the register she organized before and found the forms and sorting methods convenient. Being a diligent person, he thought that he might be able to make use of it in the future, so he secretly learned from her for a couple of days.
Therefore, Shu Yu took her time going back home and gave a systematic introduction to Wang Changdong at the estate.
Unbeknownst to her, a mule cart arrived in the village while she was there.
"Is this Zhengdao Village?" Ruan Shi asked as she lifted the curtain of the cart and looked outside. She turned to Da Ya, who was sitting beside her.
Da Ya had stayed here for two days before and pointed in the direction. "Yes, mother. Look at that manor at the entrance. Ah Yu works there. But according to Doctor Zhao, she usually goes home around this time, so we'll be able to meet her."
Ruan Shi nodded. As the cart passed the village entrance and went further in, the environment became more dilapidated and desolate.
Shi Shi Village was quite poor, and even the Lu family's house was in a state of disrepair. But Zhengdao Village was even more run-down. There weren't many people moving around in the village, and those who were had exhausted and weary expressions.
Living in such a place, facing this kind of life every day, it was natural for people's spirits to be worn down.
Lu Erbai furrowed his brow. "Luckily, Ah Yu doesn't have to stay here for long."
Meng Yunzheng, who was driving the cart, nodded in agreement. Indeed, this place easily eroded one's willpower.
It was fortunate that the Lu family had followed them here, and Ah Yu had the care of the old lady, as well as two lively younger siblings. It made the atmosphere much warmer.
Meng Yunzheng unconsciously increased the speed, and before long, the mule cart stopped at the entrance of the Lu family's house.
