Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 802: Chapter 802: The Second Family Letter

However, the directive from the capital had not arrived, but the second letter from home had been sent over.

It was still Meng Yunzheng who brought it over; Shu Yu happened to return to the county town that day, bringing back dried goods that had been sun-cured recently.

Meng Yunzheng came while the family was gathered around the table for dinner.

Dahu now treats Meng Yunzheng as his teacher, with utmost respect. As soon as he arrived, the little guy immediately brought over a stool for him and was about to pour tea.

Meng Yunzheng chuckled and said to him, “No need to pour tea, I just came to deliver the letter and will leave right after.”

Besides the letter, there were also some local products from home prepared by Daniu.

Of course, it wasn’t much, but it was a thoughtful gesture.

Shu Yu wiped her mouth and took the letter.

After Meng Yunzheng placed the items down, he left. The old lady quickly brought out chicken soup that had been stewing in the kitchen and handed it to him as he departed, “Take this back to drink. I heard from Dahu that you’ve been busy writing some article; it must be tiring. This is specially stewed for you and Zhao Xi. Originally, we planned to send it after dinner, but since you’re here, just take it with you.”

“Thank you, Grandmother.”

Meng Yunzheng now called the old lady very naturally. The matter between him and Shu Yu was clear to the Lu family as they were not blind.

But they were all very pleased with Meng Yunzheng. Yu was of age now, and the two standing together indeed made a handsome couple, quite compatible.

Once Yu reached her coming-of-age, the wedding date could be discussed.

However, the Lu family was still unaware of Zhao Xi’s feelings for Daya. Probably because Zhao Xi had been too subtle about it; not only the Lu family but even Daya herself hadn’t realized.

Well, except for Shu Yu.

Meng Yunzheng, carrying the food container, walked out the door while Shu Yu also opened the thick letter in her hand.

Like the last time, this letter was very substantial.

Upon taking it out, indeed, at the top was a letter written by Dabao.

Although the handwriting was slightly better than last time, from the first sentence, it was evident that Dabao was complaining again about having to write so many words.

She decided to leave his letter till last since it was too strenuous to read.

Shu Yu first read Daniu’s letter, but Daniu’s family letter was much briefer and less interesting. Like always, he shared only the good news, not the woes, mentioning some recent happenings at home.

He mentioned Lanhua’s marital arrangement, which had been settled.

Daniu had met the other party; the man didn’t have any major faults, just a bit lazy.

But Madam Li thought it wasn’t a big issue. Isn’t Lu Sanzhu also incredibly lazy? Look at his life now, having a job in the county town; his days are prosperous, and he has raised his two children plump and healthy.

Besides, the household Lanhua was to marry into was not in bad condition. The man lived in the county town and they had a small shop, their family selling tofu.

Lanhua, marrying into this family, wouldn’t have to do fieldwork; at most, she would help out at the shop, which was both easy and comfortable.

Furthermore, Daniu also lived in the county town now. With Daniu as her elder brother, the family would not dare to mistreat Lanhua.

Daniu couldn’t argue with Madam Li, and although the fiancé was lazy, if asked to work, he would still do it.

He just wouldn’t take the initiative to help; the type to not even notice if the firewood at home fell over, but if somebody prompted him, he would still bend down to pick it up.

Never mind that man; currently, most of the men at home acted this way.

Daniu couldn’t expect perfection from others; his own sister had her flaws too. As long as there were no severe issues like violence, if they could compromise and live together, it was acceptable.
