The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 745: Chapter 745: Father and Mother Have Arrived Chapter 745: Chapter 745: Father and Mother Have Arrived Shu Yu had never seen it, but Daniu had mentioned it more than once.

Moreover, after her reunion with her family, as Daniu’s fiancee, she also had Daniu send a handkerchief she had embroidered herself as a congratulatory gift.

It was only because she hadn’t married Daniu that she couldn’t conveniently visit the Lu family. Yet her good intentions still reached Shu Yu’s hands, much friendlier than what the Eldest Aunt had offered.

Therefore, although the old lady hadn’t had time to prepare a gift, she had indeed intended to do so. By the time she was about to leave, she had finished everything she could think of.

As his sister, she couldn’t be present at Daniu’s wedding, but a gift was indispensable.

She had entrusted it to Lord Xiang before leaving Jiangyuan County.

Not just Daniu’s gift, but also one for Ding Yuehua, who was to wed at the end of the year, was prepared.

Shu Yu knew the old lady had some regrets, she said with a smile, “It’s okay, we’ll be able to return soon. When we do, we’ll make it up to Sister-in-law.”

The old lady thought of the Heating Pack prepared by Yu, and knew that as long as she delivered this invention, she would be blameless.

She immediately perked up and turned to ask her, “You said you’d wait for the weather to cool down a bit before giving it to Mister Qi. Since it’s suddenly gotten colder today, is it time?”

“Yes, I’ll get ready in the next few days, and then go to the county town to find Mister Qi.”

Shu Yu had originally planned to go to the county town in two days, but unexpectedly, the next day, a mule carriage entered Righteous Dao Village from the county town.

It was still early in the day, and Shu Yu was organizing the roster in the Manor.

She was unsure if she could return the same day after going to the county town, so she intended to ask for a day off.

To be prepared for any eventuality, the registration work would temporarily have to bother Wang Changdong.

Wang Changdong had previously looked at her organized records and thought her tables and sorting methods were very convenient. He was eager to learn and thought he might use them in the future, so he observed for a couple of days, learning by stealth.

So, with Shu Yu taking leave, he was the most suitable person to cover for her.

Shu Yu didn’t rush back home and first went through everything systematically with Wang Changdong in the Manor.

Therefore, when the mule carriage from outside the village arrived, Shu Yu was unaware that her family members were sitting on it.

“Is this Righteous Dao Village?” Madam Ruan was visiting for the first time and lifted the curtain of the carriage to look outside, asking Daya beside her.

Daya had stayed here for a couple of days and pointed out for her, “Right, Mother, look at that manor at the entrance of the village. Yu is working in there, but according to Doctor Zhao, she usually goes home by now. We’ll probably see her if we head back now.”

Madam Ruan nodded. After the carriage passed the entrance of the village, the surroundings became much more dilapidated and desolate.

Shangshi Village was rather poor, and the Lu family’s house was also run-down and leaky. But Righteous Dao Village was even more derelict, very few people were walking around the village, and those who were appeared utterly exhausted.

In such a place, whether working hard or not, facing such attitudes towards life every day, one would naturally be affected and become spiritless.

Lu Erbai frowned slightly, “Fortunately, Yu doesn’t have to stay here for too long.”

Meng Yunzheng, driving the carriage ahead, nodded. Indeed, such a place could easily wear down one’s will.

It was also fortunate that the Lu family had followed, with the old lady there to care for Yu and two lively younger siblings to keep her company, making everything feel much warmer.

He couldn’t help but speed up, and soon the mule carriage stopped in front of the Lu family’s doorstep.
