The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1133: Chapter 1133: If Soft Doesn’t Work, Try Hard

Damn reciprocity.

Even Ms. Kang, who always kept her attention on Wang Jiayi, couldn’t help but smile.

Everyone actually knows these things well, but due to their status, it’s hard to tear the facade.

Shu Yu had no such concerns; she said what they had always wanted to say but held back, which was hugely satisfying.

Yao An opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but when he looked up, he saw Shu Yu smiling at him, as if she had a dozen or twenty harsh replies waiting for him should he dare to retort.

This feeling made him wisely close his mouth.

Even Yao Hong, who was about to say something, was stopped by him.

Shu Yu felt a bit regretful seeing them not fight back.

Fortunately, Yao An finally quieted down, allowing her to eat in peace.

Not long after lunch, Ying Xi brought Zhao Xi inside.

Madam Yao once again found a chance to send the Yao siblings away, and several people entered the courtyard alone.

Watching their backs, Yao Hong stomped her foot, “Brother, did you hear what she just said? Does she look like someone who would marry you with that attitude? If she marries into our Yao Family, we definitely won’t have peace.”

Yao An frowned, calming his sister and himself, “But think about it, her marrying into our Yao Family could bring us many benefits. There was one thing she didn’t say wrong; when Uncle was exiled, we couldn’t help. Now we’re not getting any of his favor either. We’ve been here for more than a month, and Uncle has been using stressful work as an excuse to ignore us, never thinking of helping me find a job.”

Yao Hong was still very angry, but she understood her brother made sense, so she mumbled quietly, “Dad said Uncle is weak and honest, doesn’t know how to refuse. Yes, he didn’t refuse, but he isn’t helping either, just hoping we’ll give up and leave on our own.”

“That’s why I must marry Lu Shuyu. By then, she can plead with Lord Qi and Lord Jing for me. Why should we care about Uncle and Aunt’s attitude?”

“True. The look Aunt gives us is like we are sticky plaster, and even the servants aren’t attentive. I’ve never suffered such grievances since I was a child,” Yao Hong snorted twice and then asked, “Brother, what do we do now?”

Yao An pondered, “If the soft approach doesn’t work, we’ll have to try the hard way.”

He instructed Yao Hong, “Keep an eye on them, I’m going out for a while.”

Before Yao Hong could ask what he was going out for, he was already out of sight.

She could only stomp her foot and head towards Ms. Kang’s courtyard with the quiet Wang Jiayi.

Unfortunately, they were stopped at the courtyard’s entrance by Cai’er and Ying Xi.

She wasn’t afraid of Cai’er, but Ying Xi always had a cold face, so she ultimately dared not break in and could only peep from the outside.

Zhao Xi had already finished checking Ms. Kang’s pulse. He nodded slightly, “The pulse is stable, nothing major. But it’s still best to think less and move around the courtyard more.”

Zhao Xi’s words made both Madam Yao and Ms. Kang breathe a sigh of relief.

After prescribing fetus-preserving medicine, Zhao Xi left.

As he headed out, he asked Shu Yu, “Are you leaving?”

Shu Yu shook her head, “I’m waiting for Uncle Yao to return. My father asked me to give him a blueprint.”

Madam Yao said from the side, “Yu, won’t you stay today? Stay for a few days.”

Shu Yu just smiled; she certainly wouldn’t stay here.

The only thing she didn’t expect was Yao Tianqin returned too late.

Shu Yu was just pulled by Madam Yao to finish dinner and was about to leave when Yao Tianqin finally returned and immediately called her to the study.
