Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 810: Chapter 810: Shu Yu Became the Village Chief

Shu Yu suddenly lifted her head, expecting to be exonerated and allowed to return to her hometown.

But what she didn’t expect was that the Emperor would grant her the title of Village Chief because of her contribution with the heating packs.

Village Chief!!

Was she now a person with a title?

Shu Yu blinked, her mind going blank for an instant. Were the heating packs really that influential?

Lord Shi finished reading, and seeing her stunned, thought the surprise was too great for her to react and reminded her with a smile, “Monarch Lu Xiang, aren’t you going to accept the decree?”

Shu Yu snapped back to reality and hurriedly kowtowed to express her thanks, “Lu Shuyu kowtows in gratitude to the Emperor, may he live forever.”

She carefully received the Imperial Decree as if unsure, looking at it a few more times.

Meanwhile, the villagers outside the manor who had heard everything were all staring with their eyes wide in shock.

What, what did they just hear? Steward Lu was not only exonerated but also conferred the title of Village Chief??

The old lady was so excited that her breathing quickened, clutching tightly onto Sister-in-law Zhang’s arm.

The latter, completely bewildered and ignoring the pain from her arm being squeezed, stared blankly at the suddenly imposing figure inside the manor, her only thought being how fortunate it was that the marriage between her family and the Lu family had not been arranged.

Otherwise, given the current situation, her son would absolutely become a target of public criticism, and the marriage discussions could not continue.

How could she have imagined that the person who had only been exiled here not long ago could not only return to his original place but also become the enviable Monarch Lu Xiang?

The people of Righteous Dao Village were all abuzz discussing, but Mrs. Xue felt as if she had been struck on the head with a cudgel, sweating profusely as she collapsed to the ground.

How could this be, how could this be??

It wasn’t supposed to be this way, how could that lowly girl, bought only to vie for favor, be exonerated and become a Village Chief?

People around Mrs. Xue had already started to stand up one after another, but her legs were weak, and she remained sitting on the ground.

The pain in her previously injured hand began to throb, hurting so much she screamed out loud.

“Ah…”

The sound was too sharp and piercing. Everyone in the living room who was about to speak, including Lord Cheng, turned their heads to look outside.

“What’s going on?” the county magistrate took the lead and stepped forward with a frown.

At this critical moment, there couldn’t be any disturbances or else he, as the county magistrate, could not escape responsibility.

Wang Changdong shivered and came back to his senses. Not even bothering to think about the contents of the Imperial Decree, he hurried to the entrance to see what had happened.

Seeing it was Mrs. Xue, his expression changed and he said to the officers by the door, “Gag her. Don’t let her disturb the officials. Take her away and watch over her.”

He knew that this woman was the concubine of the Shu family who had bought Lady Lu.

Today, she didn’t go to work and instead, showed up here causing such a scene.

What was she trying to do? Ruin Lady Lu’s good fortune?

Not on his watch!!

Mrs. Xue had something to say, but Aunt Fang, who was standing by the door, was the first to leap forward, covering Mrs. Xue’s mouth without a word, and then followed by two officers took her away.

Wang Changdong exhaled a breath of relief, returning with a smile on his face.

Then he reported to the county magistrate, “My Lord, it was a convict who previously injured her hand, and it hasn’t fully healed. She came over to watch the excitement. The crowd was too big, and she accidentally got pushed and bumped. Unable to bear the pain, she cried out. I have already had someone take her back home to rest.”
