The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 820: Chapter 820: Transporting Gold

Shu Yu laughed heartily, “Right.”

She walked towards the living room, glanced at Meng Yunzheng standing nearby, and looked up at Lu Erbai and the others, “Father, Mother, how did you all get here? I was just about to set off for the county town.”

Madam Ruan’s eyes were red, clearly having cried tears of joy, she came over and stroked Shu Yu’s hand, saying, “It was Yunzheng who came and told us.”

Meng Yunzheng said, “I have always been paying attention to the news from the county office. Today, the county office was bustling, and with a little inquiry, I learned that the governor had come. Later, when I saw them heading towards Righteous Dao Village, I guessed that there must have been developments regarding your matter.”

He thought that since all the senior officials had gone there, Yu would surely not be able to leave anytime soon, so he went to find Lu Erbai first.

Upon hearing this, the Lu family could not care about anything else.

Lu Erbai quickly put down the work in his hands, Madam Ruan and Daya were setting up a stall and quickly packed up.

At this time, nothing was more important than whether Shu Yu could be exonerated.

The whole family packed up and hurried over.

Actually, they had already been here for a while, but at that time the Manor was crowded with people, and the senior officials were still there, they couldn’t appear there, so they had to patiently wait at home.

However, they already knew about the content of the Imperial Decree.

But, Meng Yunzheng actually knew about the Imperial Decree a step earlier than them, because just this morning he had just received a letter from the capital, which had already detailed the events at the court. He had originally planned to come to Righteous Dao Village today to show the letter to Shu Yu.

Since the Lu family had all come, Shu Yu no longer needed to rush to the county town.

When Lu Erbai and the others came, they brought a lot of food; such an important matter, of course, needed to be well celebrated.

Daya went to dry clothes, the old lady took Madam Ruan to the kitchen to busily prepare, Lu Erbai started to organize things, preparing to set aside things they didn’t plan to take back, and later give them to Aunt Fang or anyone else who needed them.

Shu Yu asked Dahu if he should go find Xu Zhensheng, as the Xu family people have all returned. Dahu hurriedly nodded his head; he had a lot he wanted to tell his good friend, and still needed to properly say goodbye.

Thus, Zhao Xi led Dahu and Sanya to the Xu Family.

As for Shu Yu, she led the mule carriage with Meng Yunzheng to retrieve the awarded gold and medicinal herbs from the Manor.

Along the way, they encountered many people who all wanted to establish a connection with Shu Yu, but perhaps the change in status made them both uncomfortable. Moreover, since Shu Yu wasn’t very familiar with them before, they didn’t dare to approach her, so they just greeted her from a distance.

A few bold ones approached her to speak, but Shu Yu really didn’t have the time, especially since they didn’t know each other before, this kind of awkward chat was also really too much.

She simply got on the carriage pole with Meng Yunzheng, speeding up the pace.

When they arrived at the Manor, Shu Yu finally took a breath of relief.

Meng Yunzheng laughed, “It’s alright for now, but when you return to Jiangyuan County, you’ll encounter even more enthusiastic people.”

Thinking of that scenario, Shu Yu felt overwhelmed.

It seemed that with the rise in status, social obligations would also increase.

She shook her head and together with Meng Yunzheng moved the chest to the mule carriage.

Wang Changdong, hearing that they encountered many villagers along the way, volunteered, “On the way back, I’ll clear the path for you.” There was a lot of gold in the mule carriage; they couldn’t afford any mishaps.
