Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 817: Chapter 817: Settling on Xu Dali

The Shu family today is not far from the Xu family, and they naturally also heard what Wang Changdong said.

Their hearts filled with anger and bitterness, they couldn’t even muster the energy to work.

“Why does Lu Shuyu always think of others for good things? After all, we’ve lived with her for many years, it’s really heartless not to show any favours.”

The speaker was Second Madam, but she only dared to mutter a few words.

Shu Feng glanced at her, snorting coldly in his heart. Favours? When she was drowned in a pond by the grandmother, everyone just watched, where were the favours then?

Anyway, Lu Shuyu’s affairs will have nothing to do with them in the future, everyone has been exiled to such a place, it is best to just mind their own business and live peacefully, the priority is to sustain themselves first.

The Shu family is not reconciled, but they have no choice but to ignore the strange glances coming from all directions and keep their heads down doing their own matters.

On the other side, Wang Changdong had already taken the Xu family people on their way back, explaining to them what happened at the Manor.

The three Xu family members’ faces were full of shock. Did they hear wrong?

A few Lords came from the capital to issue a decree to Lady Lu? And, they even allowed her to return to her original status and be appointed as a Village Chief?

So, with one less steward in charge of registration at the Manor, Lady Lu recommended him to the county magistrate?

The Xu family looked at each other; of course, they were happy for Shuyu to be able to leave this place.

After their happiness, they became excited about the prospect of getting an easier job.

Dali thought even more than what Shuyu could imagine.

If he could really work at the Manor, he could at least save the cost of his own meals. Although there were no wages due to the prisoner status, the daily ration of food was more and better than others.

And he would have a lot of free time to do his own things, take the opportunity to make some money, improve his family’s living conditions, and his wife and son would not need to work so hard.

Therefore, as soon as Wang Changdong finished speaking, “You must write well later, don’t disgrace Monarch Lu Xiang.”, Xu Dali took a deep breath and nodded hurriedly, “Don’t worry, I will write well.”

He is confident in his calligraphy, but he hasn’t written in a long time, so he is still somewhat nervous.

On the way there, Xu Dali kept quietly moving his fingers.

When the group arrived at the Manor, they could still hear the county magistrate and Shuyu talking.

Seeing them return, Shuyu stopped talking and said to the county magistrate, “This is Xu Dali, and next to him is his wife and son.”

The county magistrate sized up the group, and after Xu Dali paid his respects, he said, “Monarch Lu Xiang highly recommends you, saying you have education, literacy, discernment, and good character, and that you are more than qualified to be the steward at the Manor. Although I trust Monarch Lu Xiang, I still would like to see your handwriting. There are brushes, ink, paper, and ink stone over there, give it a try.”

“Yes.” Xu Dali respectfully answered, gratefully glanced at Shuyu, then took a deep breath and walked to the desk.

He didn’t need a chair to sit down, he took the brush, familiarized himself for a moment, and then began to write down a line of poetry.

The county magistrate glanced at it and nodded slightly, “Good.”

He was quite satisfied with Xu Dali, although the man had lost a hand, but as Lady Lu said, even so, he did a lot of work on the barren land and received a good amount of food.

Since he is competent, missing one hand doesn’t matter.
