The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 604: Chapter 604: The Two Young Ladies Team Up Chapter 604: Chapter 604: The Two Young Ladies Team Up The other girl wasn’t important; what the officers really wanted to know was Shu Yu’s thoughts.

He turned his head towards Shu Yu, “What do you think?”

Shu Yu had no objections. Honestly, she’d rather go alone than with these men who completely looked down on her.

So, she nodded, “I can.”

Everyone else breathed a sigh of relief. With a wave of his hand, the officer said, “Alright, that’s settled then. You two will hunt on the outskirts while the rest go deeper into the mountains, we can set out now.”

The men present immediately turned and walked away, as if they feared if they delayed, Shu Yu and her partner would change their minds and follow them.

It wasn’t until they had left the Manor that people began to mutter quietly.

“Women should just obediently clear the fields or burn charcoal, why bother joining a hunting party? Truly seeking death.”

“Isn’t it? Judging by her appearance, she would probably struggle even to carry two chickens, she’ll just bring us trouble.”

“Squad Five is cunning, not only did they shake off that woman, they used this opportunity to rid themselves of that other girl as well.”

The crowd immediately burst into laughter.

“Actually, having a woman around isn’t too bad, I think Squad Five doesn’t know how lucky they are. That girl could do whatever they wanted her to do.”

Hearing this, the men started laughing knowingly again.

Their voices grew fainter and fainter, but Shu Yu was still inside the Manor.

Others had already received their hunting gear; only she had yet to do so, so she stayed behind to pick up her tools before leaving.

She looked at the other girl present, who was holding only a bundle of hemp rope and stood there nervously looking at her.

Shu Yu, “…” She nodded at the girl and then followed the bailiff in to select equipment.

The girl sighed, holding the hemp rope and feeling somewhat numb.

In a regular team, there would be a set of bows and arrows, while the others would only have sharpened sticks, daggers that weren’t very sharp, or sharp tools like pitchforks.

But there were only two of them, and they were going to hunt on the outskirts, so there was definitely no equipment of bows and arrows for them.

The girl sighed again, hoping Shu Yu could choose better equipment so they could catch bigger game.

As she thought, footsteps approached.

When the girl looked up, she saw Shu Yu standing in front of her.

“You chose…” The girl began, then stopped short, surprised.

She looked incredulously at the longbow and quiver on Shu Yu’s back and said in disbelief, “You, you chose a bow and arrows?”

“Yes, what’s wrong?” Shu Yu nodded, “Aren’t bows and arrows the most suitable tool for hunting? The bailiff told me to choose for myself, so I chose this. Is there a problem?”

The girl swallowed, shaking her head, “No, no problem.”

Shu Yu, “Since there’s no problem, then let’s go. It’s getting late, if we don’t head out soon, we might not have any luck today.”

Those guys rushed into the mountains like bandits, likely having scared away most of the game near the entrance of the deep woods.

On the first day of hunting, Shu Yu didn’t plan on going too deep, better to get familiar with the situation first.

The girl nodded blankly, “Alright, let’s go, let’s go.”

The two of them, one with a bow and arrows, the other with a bundle of hemp rope, fearlessly left the Manor.

Shu Yu walked with a spring in her step. Being well-fed, well-clothed, and well-rested really did make for a good spirit, she felt an endless surge of energy.
