The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 651: Chapter 651: Madam Hou Leaves Chapter 651: Chapter 651: Madam Hou Leaves Madam Hou pulled the Sixth Young Lady and turned, walking out of the living room and into the courtyard, where she saw Mrs. Xue hiding in the firewood shed with a face that gloated over the disaster.

She couldn’t be bothered with her, picking up the bundle from the ground.

Lord Shu pursued them a few steps, “Madam Hou, you must think this through. Once you leave this door today, returning next time won’t be so easy. If you’re willing to admit your mistakes and obediently serve the family well, I might still give you a chance.”

Madam Hou had never been deeply connected to Lord Shu, marrying him initially to escape the brothel.

Little had she known that escaping the brothel would not spare her from a life of distress, a situation no less grim.

Her only solace was her caring daughter.

Therefore, leaving Lord Shu shook her not at all, she even wished she could leave right now.

Unfortunately, the grain she had saved had all been devoured by these scoundrels.

Hearing the raging voice of Lord Shu behind her, Madam Hou, without looking back, led the Sixth Young Lady out of the gate.

Lord Shu and the others, “…” They had actually left, did she really think the Lu family would shelter her forever?

Madam Hou and her daughter left cleanly, yet as soon as they stepped out of the courtyard, the Sixth Young Lady couldn’t stop her tears from falling.

She differed from Madam Hou, after all, he was her father.

Before the Shu family fell into decline, her father had also doted on her, always saving the best for her.

The current situation distressed her heart.

But if she really had to choose between her mother and father, she naturally stood by her mother without hesitation.

Madam Hou didn’t console her, allowing her to vent fully.

She planned to go straight to the manor, since they could no longer live here, they would go to the courier station today and inform Lord Cheng.

Originally, she thought they still had half a day’s time, enough for Shu Yu to return so they could gather and say farewell, never knowing when they would meet again.

Now, that couldn’t be done as wished, fortunately, Lord Cheng also planned to wait for Shu Yu to return from hunting, by then he would directly go to the manor, ensuring they could meet before departing.

However, Madam Hou suddenly stopped midway.

The Sixth Young Lady, sobbing, lifted her head, “Mother, what’s wrong?”

“These days, the old lady of the Lu family has also taken care of us, even sending us warm clothing and plenty of food. Since we are leaving, we should say goodbye to her both emotionally and rationally, let’s go to the Lu family first.”

The Sixth Young Lady nodded, and they immediately changed direction.

As they turned into the gate of the Lu family’s house, they didn’t know that someone was following behind them.

Shu Feng looked up at the nearby house and sneered, so this was the Lu family, he noted it.

As the door of the Lu family closed, Shu Feng no longer paid attention, turning in a different direction.

He had only walked a few steps when suddenly a voice came from behind, “Big brother, where are you going?”

Shu Feng turned around and saw Shu Quan catching up in just a few steps, “I lost sight of you for a second, how did you end up here?”

“I plan to go into the mountains to have a look.”

Shu Quan was stunned, surprised, “Into the mountains? Now?”

“Yes,” Shu Feng looked towards the distant mountains, still seemingly hearing the sounds of wild animals, “As Mrs. Xue said, working on barren land is meaningless for us, both tiring and unprofitable, but going into the mountains is different.”
