Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 881: Chapter 881: Tang Wenqian Distrusts Madam Tang

Madam Tang watched her leaving, pursed her lips, rubbed her sore shoulder that had been bumped into, and looked up in the direction of the Lu family.

So that girl has become the Village Chief? Really impressive.

But she only found out about such a major event today. Clearly, Tang Wenqian was in the county office working with the county magistrate — he must have heard about it.

Yet, she just went to the county town the day before yesterday to see her son, and he didn’t mention a word to her.

Was he afraid that she could not keep a secret and might blurt it out in a rush?

But she had already promised and admitted her mistake; does he really need to keep dwelling on this issue to consider someone from outside the family?

Besides, it’s not entirely her fault; if it weren’t for Madam Liang coming to provoke her, how could she have lost control and spoken out?

Madam Tang felt extremely aggrieved in her heart and then felt a sourness. Her son studied hard for ten years and until now, he could only help around the county magistrate, whereas that girl from the Lu family had such good fortune to directly become the Village Chief. Even Lord Xiang paid her extra respects, which is truly unfair.

Madam Tang stopped looking in the direction of the Lu family and abruptly turned back towards her own courtyard.

The Lu family did not care about what outsiders thought; as long as nobody disturbed them, that was fine.

After reviewing the Heating Pack, Lu Sanzhu wanted to take the used item and open it up to see.

Shu Yu swiftly collected the Heating Packs; Lu Sanzhu chuckled, “Yu, let me have a look.”

“Look at what? We cannot use this thing. I have already presented the Heating Packs to the Emperor, how it should be promoted and when it will be popularized among the people are all up to the Emperor. I can show it to you, but you shouldn’t know too much about it—it’s not good for us.”

The old lady slapped Lu Sanzhu on the back, “Sanzhu, don’t be so curious.”

Lu Sanzhu shrank his neck, seeing Shu Yu being so serious, he probably understood the severity of the situation and didn’t dare make another peep.

Lu Sixing stepped forward and said, “Alright, we’ve seen the Heating Pack, aren’t we going up the mountain soon? Let’s tidy up the house first, and then we can nearly be ready to leave.”

Shu Yu saw her picking up the broom to enter the room, hurriedly spoke up to stop her, “Fourth Aunt, don’t rush to tidy up inside; we are not staying in the village today.”

Lu Sixing was surprised; Lu Dasong was even more astonished, “You’re not staying in the village? Are you returning to the county town? But didn’t we terminate the lease on that house there?”

“I have already asked someone to look for another place, and we can move in tonight,” said the old lady, “The big house that the Emperor bestowed upon us, we haven’t seen it yet; it will need some renovation before we can move in. Before that, we need to rent another place to stay.”

The people the old lady mentioned were Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi, and they were free today so they went to help find a house near Liufang Alley. This time they were looking for a short-term lease, which would last about two months at most.

They would leave the house in the village as it is; after all, they had rented out their farmland and there was nothing left for them to do there.

However, this place is the root of the Lu family, so in the future, when they have money and leisure, this house will still need some renovation.

The old lady then said to Lu Dasong, “We bought some vegetables and grain when we were in the county town, move them all to your house, and we’ll eat there at noon.”

Lu Dasong quickly nodded, “Okay, I’ll let honey go back and start cooking right away.”
