The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1832: Chapter 1832: Lu Sanzhu’s Skill at Reading People

The crowd snickered; Third Lu’s adaptable personality was becoming increasingly skilled.

Shu Yu exclaimed in realization, ”Turns out I have so many virtues in Third Uncle’s heart.”

Third Lu nodded emphatically, ”Of course, you are the most capable person in our family, your virtues fill a whole basket, no one can compare to you. Right, Mother, Second Brother?”

He wanted allies. If not for outsiders being present, the old lady would have rolled her eyes, disregarding her image.

Lu Erbai, however, gave him face, nodding along, ”Yes!” He was still thrilled, knowing Shu Yu was the county magistrate, a sense of pride welled up, making him unconsciously raise his head higher.

His daughter was so capable, he was proud.

Knowing she wasn’t being overshadowed and bullied as Third Lu had guessed, he was even happier.

Uncle Meng laughed heartily on the side, ”Shu Yu is naturally a good child. You don’t know, I was once trapped in a perilous situation, nearly lost my life. If it weren’t for Shu Yu and Yunzheng rescuing me, I might have...”

Before he could finish, Ms. Tao bumped him.

Uncle Meng looked at his wife in confusion, who chuckled awkwardly, ”Don’t say those things. Let the in-laws rest first.”

This is absurd, what’s the point of saying such things? Isn’t it just needlessly worrying the Lu family?

Ms. Tao considered herself not very clever, but she was more delicate compared to the overly straightforward Uncle Meng.

Sure enough, Uncle Meng’s words slightly changed the expressions of the old lady and Lu Erbai: being in a perilous situation? Even Uncle Meng, an adept Head Escort of the escort agency, almost lost his life, clearly the situation back then was extremely dangerous. Could Shu Yu and Yunzheng have rescued him easily?

The two of them felt some concern, but now was not the time to speak. They parted from the Meng family, following Shu Yu to the guest rooms.

All the while, the old lady couldn’t help but examine Shu Yu, fearing she might be hurt or in pain somewhere.

Shu Yu patiently explained, ”I’m fine, Uncle only exaggerated to express his gratitude, it wasn’t that serious.”

”You can’t fool me. If it wasn’t serious, why would the Emperor bestow the title of county magistrate on you?” The old lady wasn’t easy to deceive. That was a county magistrate! Initially hearing Shu Yu was the county magistrate, she indeed felt thrilled.

Now, in hindsight, if it weren’t for significant achievements, how could one become a county magistrate?

Enjoying such honor requires paying the corresponding price.

This logic, the old lady still understood.

Third Lu watched them from the side, waved his hand, and said, ”Mother, you’re just worrying too much. Shu Yu was made county magistrate definitely using her brains. Last time she was made Village Chief, wasn’t there no danger at all? I see Shu Yu hasn’t encountered anything serious, just a bit tired.”

Well done, Shu Yu covertly gave Third Lu a thumbs up.

It seems after this long period of experience and serving as the steward for so long, Third Uncle not only excels in imagination but has become superb at reading situations.

”Yes, Grandmother, Third Uncle is right. When we went to rescue Uncle, it was purely strategy, I didn’t lose a single strand of hair. I’ll take my time and explain it to you later.”

She winked at Third Lu.

He grasped it right away, immediately changing the subject, ”Oh, Yu, I’m still curious, people outside say you have the heart of a Bodhisattva, comforting and inviting people to meals. What’s going on?”
