The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 750: Chapter 750: Deliver Good News, Not Bad News Chapter 750: Chapter 750: Deliver Good News, Not Bad News The shop could attract clients like Miss Ding mainly because of her makeup skills.

If Daya were still there, it wouldn’t be a problem, as Daya’s craftsmanship had already matured.

With Daya gone and Madam Ruan also having moved to Linzhang Prefecture, only Mrs. Xiang and her daughter were left making clothes in the shop.

Fortunately, Mrs. Xiang’s tailoring skills were originally excellent, and now Yiren Pavilion has become a purely ready-to-wear clothes shop. The clientele it faced was no longer limited to ladies and misses from prominent families; they were also making clothes for the ordinary people.

This was also good because Yiren Pavilion’s reputation had spread, and with its location on the bustling Ningshui Street, the business was able to stay stable.

Even if it didn’t make a fortune, it wouldn’t lose the original investment.

Thus, Shu Yu wasn’t worried about the shop.

Daniu then started to talk about the sunflowers, unsure whether Jiangyuan County was too cold, or whether the seed he planted was bad, as the sunflower had sprouted but now had withered.

Daniu could only replant, but since there weren’t many seeds, wasting them meant having none left, so he dared not try too much.

He then mentioned some family matters, like how Cuihua was pregnant again, how due to his position as shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear clothes shop, there were more suitors for Lanhua, but Madam Li had not chosen anyone yet, and also, Dabao and Dahu had started schooling, with Madam Li finally biting the bullet and allowing Erniu to attend a private school in town.

The old lady snorted upon hearing this, “At least she has some sense, knowing to send the child to school.”

Now that Daniu was managing the shop, he definitely earned wages. The burden on the family was considerably lightened, so squeezing the budget a bit to send Erniu to private school wasn’t too difficult.

Daniu’s letter was two pages long, speaking of family affairs, mostly good news.

He has always been the type to share good news and not the bad, and at the end, he asked about the old lady and Lu Erbai’s family, telling everyone to take good care of themselves before ending the letter.

The next letter was from Yuan Shanchuan.

His letter was much more concise, partly dictated and partly written by himself.

He simply stated that everything was fine at home, his work had stabilized, and thanks to Shu Yu, the county magistrate was looking after him. Sixing was at home taking care of the two children, and Quanquan could now walk steadily.

Yuan Shanchuan was similar to Daniu, briefly discussing the family situation and sparing the bad news to avoid worrying them.

After reading their letters, Shu Yu picked up the seven or eight pages of letter from Dabao.

Skipping the meaningless chatter at the beginning, there were indeed quite a few matters mentioned further in.

Such as the things Daniu and Yuan Shanchuan were reluctant to say, Dabao had written them all out.

Lu Sanzhu and Madam Liang didn’t follow their example of sharing only good news and not the bad; they seemed eager to tell them everything about the eldest household and the fourth sister’s affairs.

Shu Yu straightened up as she saw the letter mentioning Daniu’s marriage matters.

“Dabao said, when Brother Daniu got married, the Yuan family even made trouble at Eldest Uncle’s house.”

The Yuan family??

The old lady got angry, “Those shameless old fools, why did they even show up after cutting ties?”

Shu Yu chuckled, “There’s no helping it. Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt moved to the county town. But where they live, they didn’t say, nor did they tell the Yuan family. The Yuan family, not willing to give up and unable to find Fourth Uncle, had no choice but to use the opportunity of Daniu’s wedding to show up since Fourth Aunt would definitely be there.”
