Chapter 1205: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1205: Xiao Song Enjoys Watching Quan Quan
Zhao Xi rubbed his chin and said, "It seems that we shouldn't discuss things at the county office anymore."
Shu Yu nodded and as they reached the corner of an alley, she waved her hand at Zhao Xi, "Thank you for telling me all this. I have some things to attend to, so I'll be on my way."
Turning the corner, she headed straight for Fenghuai Street, where she could take her carriage and leave the city.
Zhao Xi watched her figure disappear and stomped his foot in frustration, "Wasn't she supposed to help me look at houses?"
Is she even a good sister-in-law? She's not doing her part!
Ignoring the calling behind her, Shu Yu quickly returned home.
She then had the carriage readied and headed outside the city.
At the estate, she found Da Niu, who had just returned that morning, and went to see the vacant land he mentioned.
The place was indeed spacious, but the price was a bit high.
Shu Yu negotiated the price and eventually bought the land for 800 taels of silver.
Her purse took a serious hit, and she couldn't help but sigh. Thankfully, she still had income from selling scar removal ointment at Doctor Xu's place, otherwise, she would have been broke.
She needed to start making money soon, as she was currently living off her savings.
After buying the land, Shu Yu wasted no time and quickly returned to the county town.
After returning home, Shu Yu originally planned to think about the workshop and how it should be built. She thought that since the location was far from the county town, she would probably need to construct dormitories for the workers.
The land was quite wide, but she didn't need to use all of it right now. Once the sunflower production increased in the future, she could expand the workshop as needed. So, she had to carefully consider the distance between the dormitories and the workshop.

Lost in her thoughts, Shu Yu didn't expect to hear a lively commotion upon arriving home. As she listened, she recognized the voices of Liang Shi and others.
Not only Liang Shi, but also Lu Sixing and Cui Hua, who were currently living in the county town, were present.
All of them had heard that she had returned from capital and came to see her. As a result, the backyard was bustling with children running around.
Except for Da Bao and the others who were studying, everyone else was there, making it even more lively.
"Ah Yu, you're back?" Liang Shi's sharp eyes were the first to spot her, and she immediately rushed over, "Ah Yu, let me tell you, we've moved! We've moved into a new house. Oh my, living in a new house feels so different, it's amazing! When are you coming over to visit?"
Shu Yu walked inside, replying, "Whenever I have time, I'll come over."
"Sounds good!"
Shu Yu walked over to her grandmother, greeted Lu Sixing and Cui Hua, and her grandmother noticed her dusty appearance, "You've been running around in and out of the town since you returned. Go wash your face and change your clothes. I asked the kitchen to prepare bird's nest soup for you. Have some."
Hearing about the bird's nest soup, Liang Shi's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Although their lives had improved, they still couldn't afford such delicacies.
Liang Shi asked, "Mother, is there a lot of bird's nest soup?"
"It's not as common as cabbage, of course it's not a lot. Those bird's nests were all gifts from the wives of high officials in the capital. They are precious," the grandmother replied, fully aware of Liang Shi's intentions.
Liang Shi pouted, not daring to pursue the matter of the bird's nest soup.
After a smile, Shu Yu went back to Yuyuan. When she came out again after changing her clothes, she saw Xiao Songle hiding behind the wall, looking at... Quan Quan, who was playing not far away, with a hesitant and fearful expression.
