The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1426: Chapter 1426: Taking Them Home

Uncle Meng’s words were rather severe, leaving Ms. Tao and Tao Qin stunned, unable to believe what they heard as they looked at him.

Uncle Meng took a deep breath and said to Meng Han, ”Go pack your things; we’re going home now.”

”Alright, alright, Dad.” Meng Han nodded repeatedly, swallowed hard, and quickly slipped away.

Only then did Uncle Meng turn around, his face full of apology as he said to Meng Yunzheng, ”Yunzheng, I’m sorry. Originally, I thought we could celebrate your success in the academy examination as a family, have a great time, but I didn’t expect to cause you trouble instead. I’ll be heading back now, don’t worry, I won’t let anyone ruin your marriage.”

For Uncle Meng, although the Tao Family is his wife’s family, and his father-in-law saved his life, it cannot compare to his brother Meng Pei. Back in the day, they relied on each other for survival, and everything he has now is thanks to his big brother. As for Tao Qin, she naturally cannot compare to his dear nephew, Meng Yunzheng.

Moreover, Tao Qin’s actions today made Uncle Meng feel even more disdain.

If such a person were to marry Yunzheng, wouldn’t she just hold him back in the future?

It seems after returning, he needs to have a good talk with his wife’s family.

Uncle Meng exhaled, then turned to Shu Yu and said, ”You and Yunzheng should be well. This matter was not handled well by your aunt; Uncle is definitely on your side, hoping for you and Yunzheng to marry and spend life together. Yunzheng chose you, and uncle knows he has good taste; you are a good girl.”

Shu Yu smiled; apart from disagreeing with Uncle Meng’s attitude towards the Tao Family, she respected him greatly in other aspects.

”Thank you, uncle.”

As they spoke, Meng Han had already packed his things and came over, ”Dad, are we leaving now?”

”Let’s go.” Uncle Meng walked over to Ms. Tao and Tao Qin, grabbed Ms. Tao, and pulled her up.

Ms. Tao struggled, ”What are you doing? I’m not leaving, Ah Qin is still sick...”

”You won’t leave, huh? Then don’t ever come back,” Uncle Meng said with a stern face, showing a bit of a fierce aura.

Having traveled far and wide for years, he naturally carried some bandit-like air.

Seeing him in this manner, Ms. Tao inexplicably felt a bit scared and stopped struggling, letting Uncle Meng pull her out of the yard.

Xia Yan had already cleverly brought the carriage to the door; Uncle Meng let them get in, and Meng Han waved excitedly at Shu Yu from the back before quickly climbing in.

Once everyone was seated, Uncle Meng shook the reins and left without a word.

In an instant, the previously bustling and noisy Meng family fell silent.

Shu Yu turned her head and exchanged a glance with Meng Yunzheng, ”Just like that... they’ve left?”

”You didn’t plan to keep them for dinner, did you?”

Shu Yu chuckled, ”No, just surprised, really sudden, so what should we do now?”

Meng Yunzheng looked at the time, ”Let’s go shopping in the market.”

”Alright.”

So Meng Yunzheng took the list that Uncle Meng had written earlier and led Shu Yu to the market.

Ying Xi stayed at home to watch the door, so when Aunt He came over with a large basket of vegetables, she saw her alone.

Aunt He was stunned, and after hearing Ying Xi say that Uncle Meng’s family had already left, she was even more surprised, then looked down at the vegetables in the basket—did she buy too much?

The vegetables bought yesterday afternoon haven’t been cooked yet, and today there’s a big basketful; in this hot weather, they might spoil.

Aunt He was very worried.
