Chapter 1125: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1125: What's Her Relationship with the Yao Family?
Yao Tianqin thought about the chaos in the Ministry of Works and didn't insist on staying longer.
He nodded, "Alright, Ah Yu, you sit for now. We can talk later."
Saying that, before Shu Yu could react, he quickly walked away.
Shu Yu was once again pulled to sit down by Madam Yao for a chat.
Yao An and Yao Hong both breathed a sigh of relief. They had thought Madam Yao was going to bring up the incident where they had driven someone away earlier.
Although Yao Tianqin had a somewhat simple and honest personality, Yao An and his sister were still somewhat afraid of him. He was now the Minister of Works, and they didn't dare to act recklessly. Moreover, they still wanted to ask for his help.
Now that he had gone off to attend to his duty, they finally felt at ease, and they had the time to size up Shu Yu.
Madam Yao and Kang Shi were very affectionate toward Shu Yu, treating her like their own daughter.
What was the origin of this girl?
Yao An wanted to ask, but they were talking so excitedly that he couldn't get a word in.
It was Yao Hong who, with her willful nature, interrupted and asked, "Aunt, you haven't introduced who this girl is and what her relationship is with our Yao family."
Madam Yao furrowed her brow, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.
Kang Shi, a little annoyed, unlike Madam Yao's composed demeanor, raised her head sarcastically and said, "You're talking about Ah Yu, right? She's the village lord appointed by the emperor. You know those heating packs? She presented them to the emperor, who couldn't stop praising them."
Village lord?
Heating packs?
Yao siblings were dumbfounded. This girl, who traveled with only one servant and even stayed in the ship's cabin, is a village lord?
Both Yao An and Yao Hong, as well as Wang Jiayi, changed their expressions.
Kang Shi was satisfied to see them step back a few steps and snorted inwardly.
Ignoring them, she turned her head and continued talking to Shu Yu.
They asked Shu Yu about her plans for coming to the capital. Naturally, Shu Yu couldn't talk about Gong Qiu's matter, so she casually said, "I just finished some matters at home, and a friend is here in the capital to handle some business. I came to find him and, by the way, experience the city."
Shu Yu pointed to the gift box placed beside her, "These are prepared by my parents; they are specialties from our place. They insisted that I must give them to you to try."
"You're too polite." Madam Yao waved her hand, but her smile was radiant.
"Where is there any need for you to be polite? You even specially sent me a gift for my birthday."
Madam Yao asked her, "Do you like it?"
"Naturally, I do."
"Speaking of that, we have Minister Qi to thank. We had prepared the gifts for your coming-of-age ceremony, but originally planned to send them to the southwest. Who knew that you all returned to Dong'an Prefecture? For a while, we didn't know your address. Fortunately, Minister Qi also sent you a birthday gift. He has connections and directly sent the gifts to the county office to be delivered to you, just in time for your birthday."
Listening to this, Zhu mama was startled. Birthday gift? She knew about this matter; Madam and the Young Mistress had mentioned it a few months ago, saying that a good friend of theirs would soon have her coming-of-age ceremony, and they needed to prepare some congratulatory gifts.
But those things were all personally selected by Madam Yao, and after they were prepared, someone else delivered them, so Zhu Mama didn't know where they were sent.
It turned out that the congratulatory gifts were sent to Dong'an Prefecture, to this young lady in front of her.
