The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl
Chapter 685 - Chapter 685 Chapter 685 You are the Old Ladys Favorite

Chapter 685: Chapter 685: You are the Old Lady’s Favorite Chapter 685: Chapter 685: You are the Old Lady’s Favorite The Shu family’s second branch had been suppressed by the main branch for many years, but now the eldest legitimate son and daughter, as well as the bastard, were all present, and they subtly seemed to be making plans to take charge of the household.

Shu Feng looked up in the direction of the Shu family. After a long moment he said to Mrs. Liu, “I understand, let’s go gather firewood first.”

“Alright.” Mrs. Liu didn’t need to do much; she simply stated a fact.

However, after the two of them returned with the firewood, the young master also came out. His face no longer showed the previous anger, and the Shu family all calmly ate, washed, and went to bed.

But the next day, when they found out that Madam Hou and the Sixth Young Lady hadn’t gone to work in the fields as usual, their speculations grew even more.

Meanwhile, Shu Yu, who had spent a comfortable night at home, woke up early and sneezed twice, feeling as if someone was talking about her.

Madam Ruan and Daya were pushing their cart to sell food as soon as the sky began to brighten. Shu Yu had wanted to follow them but was unanimously refused by both.

She rarely had a couple of days off, why would Madam Ruan and Daya be willing to let her get up early and busy herself?

Therefore, when Shu Yu got up, breakfast at home was almost finished.

Lu Erbai was restless during breakfast, resulting in the old lady smacking him, “What’s the matter? You’ve got needles under your butt? Can’t you sit still without squirming around? You’re making my eyes hurt.”

Shu Yu looked up at her father and chuckled, “Father, are you worried about Uncle Yao?”

Lu Erbai nodded, “He said he wanted to go to the county office today to take a look around, but I’m not sure if he has gone yet.”

“Uncle Yao is anxious. With the current time, he should have gone, right?”

Lu Erbai still felt unsure after thinking it over, “I need to go see for myself.”

Carpenter Yao was both a teacher and a friend to him and had helped him a lot. Now the county office was obviously unstable and even the county magistrate was in danger; it was uncertain if Brother Yao, an innocent party, would be implicated.

Lu Erbai couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.

After a moment of contemplation, Shu Yu said, “Father, I’ll accompany you.”

“You’re going too?”

“There’s nothing much for me to do anyway, taking a walk outside would also be good. Accompanying you to the county office would give me a chance to observe the situation in Heichang County.”

Lu Erbai was speechless–when Yu talked about the situation, he inexplicably felt like her vision was so grand.

Clearing his throat, Lu Erbai nodded, “Well, alright then.”

The old lady glanced disapprovingly at Lu Erbai. Yu had finally gotten a chance to rest for two days, could he not let her sleep in at home? He had to find something for her to do–a terrible father indeed.

Shu Yu said to the old lady, “Grandmother, then you rest well at home. We will be back soon.”

The old lady’s expression changed in a second, immediately bright and kindly she said, “Alright, alright, be careful and come back early.”

“Okay.”

The father and daughter then left the house, but as soon as they stepped out of the courtyard, Lu Erbai sighed, “Your grandmother is blaming me now. You’ve become her most cherished darling now.”

Shu Yu glanced to the side, “Isn’t that normal? I am her biological granddaughter, and I’m very filial to her.”

Lu Erbai looked up at the sky. Biological granddaughter? Weren’t Daya and Sanya her biological granddaughters as well?

Sanya used to be terrified of the old lady, afraid to even make a sound.

Now that Yu had come back, her grandmother’s temperament had indeed changed a lot.

In the past, she was tough by mouth but soft at heart, clearly caring for others, yet her words would come out as sharp as knives.

Now it was different. Her words weren’t as harsh, and she seemed to have become gentler all of a sudden.
