The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 99: Cunning

Lu Erbai didn’t want Erya to be looked down upon just because of her name. It might even cause the shop to lose business.

The old lady immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, “Then… Then we’ll call her Yu.”

After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Shu Yu, as if seeking her opinion.

Shu Yu nodded. She did not reject the name “Erya”, but it was indeed a little troubling. At first, she was not used to it. Sometimes, when the old lady called her Erya, she could not even react.

Later on, too many villagers from the neighboring villages called her Erya too, so these few days, when she heard the name Erya, she would subconsciously turn her head and almost greet the other party.

The old lady thus decided, “Alright, it’s decided then. I’ll let Dasong and Sanzhu know later.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the noise of children came from outside.

Dahu’s serious tone was particularly obvious, “Dabao, don’t cry. You can’t ride the mule. You’ll get hurt. You have to listen.”

Dabao sobbed, “You have to call me big brother.”

Dahu was in a difficult position. The other party didn’t seem like an older brother at all. It was hard to call him that.

Although Dabao had been good to them these two days, he had also bullied them before. Dahu was quite vengeful.

When Shu Yu went out, she saw his face full of confusion and melancholy.

Hmm, Dahu… He should be sent to school. They could skimp on everything, but not education. Besides, he was at the right age to study.

Shu Yu decided to ask around when she went to the county tomorrow.

The next morning, Shu Yu knocked on Lu Sanzhu’s door and drove the carriage out.

Unexpectedly, just as she was about to set off, Daniu came over.

“Er… Yu, my father asked me to go with you. After all, I’m a man and I have great strength. If there’s any heavy work in the shop, I can help. I’m also familiar with the county.”

Daniu was a little embarrassed after he finished speaking. When he went back yesterday, his father told the whole family that the second uncle’s family was going to open a shop. They were so shocked that they were sent into a daze.

Who would have thought that the second uncle, who was so poor that he couldn’t even afford medicine when his leg hurt, could now rent a shop in the county?

In any case, their family had discussed this matter for most of the night and only went to bed very late.

Shu Yu didn’t reject Daniu’s good intentions. She had thought about it before. If the shop didn’t even have enough manpower, she could ask Daniu for help. After getting along with Daniu for the past few days, she was very sure of his character.

He was filial to his elders, cared for his younger siblings, was tentative, and had a mind.

Shu Yu beckoned him to get on the mule carriage and they drove to the village entrance together.

Lu Sanzhu stood at the door of his house with his arms crossed. He watched the carriage leave and snorted coldly, “Big brother is really cunning. He knows that second brother’s family is going to strike it rich, so he sent Daniu to curry favor. So disgusting.”

He had originally planned to go to the county with Erya to get a free meal and befriend her.

Now, he had no chance at all. It was extremely appalling.

Lu Sanzhu turned around in anger and went back to sleep. There were plenty of opportunities, and the mule carriage was parked at his house anyway.

Shu Yu and Daniu arrived at the county soon and went to Ningshui Street first.

When Daniu heard that the shop was on Ningshui Street, he was shocked. He turned his head and asked, “Yu, are you renting a shop on Ningshui Street? ‘

“Yup,’

Daniu’s eyelids twitched. The rent on that street was not cheap.

However, when the carriage went further in, his entire body stiffened. As far as he knew, the rent for the shops inside was even more expensive..
