Chapter 867: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl

 Chapter 867: The Shocked Third Uncle's Family

Da Niu looked around and saw that their neighbors had also opened their doors and come out, so he entered the courtyard first. "Third Uncle, let's go inside and talk."

Lu Sanzhu shrugged, feeling his empty stomach, and decided to forget about buying breakfast for now. He would go later.

At that moment, Liang Shi also heard the commotion and came out, surprised. "Why are you here? We didn't prepare breakfast today. You won't be able to catch up."

Da Niu: "..."

Third Uncle and Third Aunt were just as predictable as ever.

Not wanting to delay any longer, Da Niu stood in the courtyard and said, "Ah Yu and Second Uncle have both returned."

"What? Who did you say?" Lu Sanzhu was stunned, doubting whether he had misheard.

Da Niu had to repeat himself, explaining what he had witnessed when he saw Ah Yu the previous night. He also mentioned that Ah Yu had been appointed as the village lord

As Da Niu finished speaking, the small courtyard fell suddenly silent. Lu Sanzhu and Liang Shi stared wide-eyed, mouths hanging open, unable to utter a word.

After a long while, the neighbors suddenly heard two piercing screams.

"Ah..."

"Ah..."

The screams not only shocked the neighbors but also startled the two children who were sleeping inside. Bao Ya burst into tears.

With an annoyed expression, Da Bao pounded the bed, but then he had to go and comfort his little sister first. Fortunately, Lu Sanzhu and Liang Shi had experienced this kind of situation before, so the two children were used to it.

After being comforted for a few moments, Bao Ya stopped crying. Da Bao quickly put on his shoes and hurriedly ran outside, exclaiming in anger, "Dad, Mom, why are you making such a fuss so early in the morning?"

Wow, he used an idiom. Good job!

Da Bao continued his complaint, "I'm so tired. I stayed up late reading last night, and you wouldn't let me rest. If I fall asleep in class, the teacher will wake me up and make me stand in front. You guys..."

However, his grievances fell on deaf ears. Lu Sanzhu and Liang Shi seemed to be oblivious to him, both of them staring at Da Niu and Zhou Qiao with wide eyes. "D-Da, Da Niu, what did you just say? Ah? You, you, you said Ah Yu has returned and become the Village Lord?"

"Yes, I saw the imperial edict with my own eyes. They're going back to Shishi Village today, so I came here in advance to tell you. After Ah Yu returns to the county, we'll meet up again."

Lu Sanzhu's excited face turned red. "When will that be? If Mother is going back to Shishi Village, as her son, of course, I have to go with her."

Liang Shi also nodded beside him. "Yes, yes, yes. Let's go back to Shishi Village together. It's been a long time since I went back."

Lu Sanzhu's trembling hands showed his excitement. "Alright, I'm going to the Peach Blossom Forest to ask for time off now. Da Niu, you came here driving a cart, right? I'll borrow the cart first."

After saying that, he ran out.

Da Niu and Zhou Qiao exchanged helpless glances, but they didn't stop him. Ah Yu should be very happy to see Third Uncle's family.

With Lu Sanzhu gone, Liang Shi turned around and pulled Da Bao, saying, "Son, your grandmother and sister Ah Yu have returned. Let's go and reunite with them. Come, come, come, I'll take you to the private school to ask for time off. Da Niu, please take care of Bao Ya for me."

Still half-asleep, Da Bao was led out by Liang Shi.

After a while, his astonished voice came from a distance. "Second sister has returned? When did she come back... wait, Mom, I haven't washed my face yet..."

The voice gradually faded away, leaving Da Niu and Zhou Qiao standing silently in the courtyard, looking at each other.
