Chapter 989: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 989: A Bold Idea
Since Shu Yu revealed her identity as village Lord Lu, the figure outside the courtyard pursed their lips and quietly took two steps back. They instructed the maidservant by their side, "Go, fetch third Young Master and tell him that something has happened at home. Make sure to explain the whole situation in advance."
"Yes, Second Madam."
Mo Shi, addressed as the Second Madam, tightly gripped the handkerchief in her hand. This was a rare opportunity, and if she didn't use it to suppress Mei Shi, she would only become more arrogant in the future.
Thinking of her young daughter, Mo Shi took a deep breath and turned her head to look at the courtyard.
But she discovered that Mei Shi, for some reason, whether due to excessive stimulation or an unwillingness to face the situation, had actually fainted and fallen backward.
The onlookers, "...Is she pretending? Is she pretending?"
Madam Fan regretted being a step too late. It was already too late to pretend to faint now.
She could only shout loudly, "Eldest daughter-in-law, Eldest daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you? Please, nothing must happen to you. What are you all standing there for? Go and fetch a doctor! Quickly carry her inside!"
The others promptly reacted, bowed their heads, rushed forward, and pretended to be busy, lifting Mei Shi and carrying her into the house.
Shu Yu and Ding Yuehua exchanged a glance and clicked their tongues.
What use was pretending to faint? Reality had to be faced sooner or later.
Everyone rushed into the house, leaving only Shu Yu and Ding Yuehua's people in the courtyard.
Only now did Ding Yuehua softly express her concern, "Ah Yu, I'm sorry. It's our fault for not managing things properly. Elder Sister-in-law targeted me, and as a result, you suffered because of me, and the blueprints were destroyed. But don't worry, my husband carefully examined those blueprints, and he has a good memory. After seeing them, he will remember and be able to reproduce them faithfully. However, it's just... it might be difficult to explain to Master Yao..."
Shu Yu was surprised that the Third Young Master Fan had such abilities. Hearing the remorseful and self-blaming look on Ding Yuehua's face, she couldn't help but smile.
Seeing that no one came out of the house, Shu Yu lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, those blueprints were not drawn by Master Yao."
Ding Yuehua was taken aback. "Huh? Then, that means..."
"They were being too arrogant. I just wanted to scare them a bit." Previously, when Shu Yu heard Ding Yuehua talk about the elder sister-in-law and mother-in-law, she felt a bit sympathetic.
But now that she had witnessed it firsthand, she realized that Ding Yuehua's description was an understatement. These mother and daughter-in-law were clearly out to harm their own family. The loss of the blueprints wasn't just a loss for the Third Branch; it affected the entire Fan family. What were they thinking?
Ding Yuehua understood and knew that Shu Yu was helping her.
Hmm... In that case, she couldn't let Shu Yu down.
Ding Yuehua's mind suddenly had a bold idea, an idea that had crossed her mind before but now seemed particularly strong.
She tightened her grip on Shu Yu's hand and whispered, "Ah Yu, what do you think about using this opportunity to split the family? Can we succeed?"
Split the family?
Shu Yu contemplated for a moment and nodded after a while, "If your husband also thinks the same way, then it's possible."
Ding Yuehua's eyes brightened, "He wants to split the family even more than I do."
She had heard her husband complain many times that the Eldest Branch was holding them back. He no longer wanted to clean up their messes. If he could go solo, it would be much easier and more comfortable than the present situation.
Shu Yu was taken aback. This was quite unexpected.
"Okay, I'll help you to the end. Later, you cooperate with me, and I'll build a ladder for you."
