The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 598: Chapter 598 Meng Yunzheng is an Invisible Genius Chapter 598: Chapter 598 Meng Yunzheng is an Invisible Genius The officer had already received benefits from Meng Yunzheng, so he naturally recognized her.

Moreover, going hunting was not a difficult request, so he agreed immediately.

At the end, he instructed her, “Come back after 5 a.m. tomorrow morning to pick up the equipment; I’ll arrange for someone to accompany you.”

“Okay.”

Shu Yu nodded in agreement; hunting hours were later than those for clearing fields. Heading into the mountains was dangerous, and it was easy to have accidents if it was dark.

The main goal of the authorities was to have the criminals work and hunt, not to take their lives.

When Shu Yu left the manor, Madam Hou and Sixth Young Lady were still waiting for her. They had known about her plan early in the morning, but they still felt it was inappropriate when she actually changed her job.

“Are you sure about this? Hunting is very dangerous.”

Shu Yu smiled, “It’s fine, my brother said he would prepare some tools for me.”

That was perfect; acknowledging her family, and with a bow and arrows, she could definitely see a clear path.

Madam Hou thought about the Lu family, who had not objected, and felt it was inappropriate to say more, so she simply nodded and stopped persuading.

The three of them walked to the Lu family’s gate. Shu Yu originally thought, since they were already at the gate, she might as well introduce Madam Hou and the two others to the Lu family.

However, Madam Hou refused. She always felt that since Shu Yu had just reunited with her family and they were not yet familiar, it was better not to disturb them too much.

Seeing her insistence, Shu Yu did not persuade her further. After giving the food in her hand to Madam Hou, she went her separate way and headed home.

Madam Hou did not refuse the food; after all, they had been working all day and were indeed very hungry.

Yet their abilities were limited and the food allotted to them was naturally not much. Shu Yu now had a family, and though their meals were not delicacies, they were definitely better than the coarse grain that strained their throats, and so the Lu family would not want this portion.

After Madam Hou and Sixth Young Lady left, Shu Yu also pushed open the door of the Lu family.

As soon as she entered, she smelled a familiar aroma. The fatigue on her body seemed to be swept away in an instant, and she immediately headed to the kitchen.

The old lady was already setting the table with Sanya, and when she saw her enter, she quickly approached, “You’re back? Go wash your hands, let’s eat first.”

Sanya had cleverly added half a scoop of hot water to the basin and then came over to pull her, “Second sister, come quickly.”

Shu Yu smiled warmly; after washing, Sanya also took some hand cream and applied it to her, muttering as she did, “Grandmother said, since second sister works hard and has calluses on her hands, we need to make sure they smell nice after washing. From now on, the very serious task of washing your hands will be my responsibility.”

Shu Yu couldn’t help but laugh, “Has washing hands become a serious task now?”

Sanya looked up and earnestly nodded her small head, “Yes.”

Shu Yu burst into laughter, and turning her head, she saw Zhao Xi and Dahu also entering the kitchen. Dahu’s face was still stained with ink, indicating he had just been practicing his writing.

The little fellow couldn’t go to school now, but he hadn’t fallen behind in his studies.

When they had returned from Jiangyuan County, Master Wen had still given him assignments, and sent him several books to slowly go through.

Now, though Dahu lacked a teacher, he could still study on his own and could ask Zhao Xi if he had questions.

Although Zhao Xi was a doctor, he was also literate and more than capable of being a temporary teacher for a beginner like Dahu. If he couldn’t manage, there was still Meng Yunzheng, who was a hidden scholar worth his weight in gold.
