Chapter 776: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 776: Interested in Da Ya
Mr. Luo was the head of the escort agency, and Luo Qing was considered a young master.
Both father and son were straightforward and righteous people, and they had a good relationship with the Lu family. However, Luo Qing's mother was different. Lu Erbo and Ruan Shi had dealt with her before.
It seemed that Luo Qing had taken a liking to Da Ya, so Luo Qing's mother had purposely gone to Ruan Shi's stall to try their food.
As the wife of the head of the Huifeng Escort Agency, Ruan Shi had accompanied her in a conversation.
Luo Qing's mother knew about the daughter who was banished from the Lu family and seemed somewhat dissatisfied. Later, she subtly inquired about Da Ya's situation, wondering why she hadn't gotten married yet.
She was about to turn eighteen, which was considered late for a girl in Da Su Dynasty.
The Lu family certainly didn't tell the Luo family about Da Ya's failed marriage and divorce. It would only invite criticism and trouble for Da Ya, so there was no need to spread that topic.
This wasn't Jiangyuan County, and Luo Qing's mother hadn't seen Zhang Shu. They only knew Da Ya, so if they found out about Da Ya's failed marriage, they would blame her.
Luo Qing's mother's probing and subtle contempt irritated Ruan Shi. Although she was timid, she loved her children very much. Da Ya had already suffered so much, and if she encountered such a mother-in-law, she would have to continue enduring hardships for the rest of her life.
Ruan Shi immediately put on a stern face and asked Luo Qing's mother to leave. Afterwards, when Luo Qing came to the stall to see Da Ya, he was blocked by Ruan Shi.
Lu Erbai said, "Besides, Da Ya doesn't like Luo Qing."
Luo Qing was two years younger than Da Ya, so in her eyes, he was just a little brother.
After listening, Shu Yu nodded in agreement. "I also think Luo Qing isn't suitable for my sister."
"Your sister's marriage isn't urgent. She just divorced not long ago. Although she seems fine, we all know that the Zhang family caused her deep harm. Talking about marriage now would only make her think about it more."
After experiencing so much, Lu Erbai had become very open-minded in his thinking.
Although both daughters were of marriageable age, he wasn't in a hurry. He even thought that if they didn't find a suitable match, it was fine not to get married.
The safety and well-being of his children were more important than anything else.
As they continued talking, they returned home. Ruan Shi and Da Ya went back to the stall, while Da Hu and San Ya played vigorously with a group of children in the alley.
Grandma sat at the doorstep with a basket of sewing supplies, watching them. As she sewed, she cautioned them, "Be careful and don't fall. Don't play until you're drenched in sweat. If the wind blows later, you'll catch a cold."
Shu Yu shook her head at the scene and was about to enter the house when she saw the door of the Meng family not far away open.
Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi both came out and were walking towards them.
It was obvious that they had come to find her. After nodding to them, Shu Yu entered the courtyard first.
Sure enough, not long after, Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi also entered.
They came to say goodbye. "After we went back last night, we carefully read the letter again, but there was no result, so we plan to personally visit the Hetai Mansion."
Shu Yu had already expected this. "When will you be back?"
"Before the New Year."
There were still about twenty days until the New Year.
"Then be careful on your journey." Shu Yu reminded them and asked, "When are you setting off?"
"Now."
So urgent? Shu Yu frowned. She didn't have enough time to prepare things for them.
But she couldn't do anything about it. On the other hand, Meng Yunzheng had prepared a box for her.
