Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 831: Chapter 831: Leaving the Exile Area

The county town was just as bustling, with the news that Shu Yu had become the Village Chief spreading like wildfire. Although she did not live in the county town and most people did not even know her, many still came to visit.

Neighbors were not to mention, even those who were competitors and set up stalls with Madam Ruan came to the door.

Luckily, Shu Yu didn’t recognize anyone, so she simply stayed at the Meng family’s place for some peace.

The people from Huifeng Escort Agency also came and even volunteered to escort them to Dongan Province, but Lu Erbai politely declined.

The Lu family bought some local specialties here. Now they have three vehicles, two mule carriages, and Meng Yunzheng’s horse carriage; they could still carry quite a lot.

After everything was ready, the family planned to set off.

Early in the morning, Shu Yu went to the county office to see the county magistrate.

The county magistrate was very friendly to her and even prepared a gift for her. After thanking him, the family finally departed from the county town.

As soon as they reached outside the city, they saw many people at the city gate waving at them.

The three members of the Fang family, five individuals from Ma Lu, the Xu Family, as well as the brother and sister from the Zhang family, Wang Changdong’s family, the escorts from Huifeng Escort Agency, and some others who had good relations with the Lu family, all came to see them off.

This farewell might truly be the last time they see each other.

Dahu was the first to have red eyes, and Xu Zhensheng quickly came running over. The two brothers hugged each other, whispering and exchanging gifts.

In a short while, Fang Xiyue also came running over with red eyes, “Yu, we prepared some jerky and dried mushrooms and vegetables for you to take on the road. You… take care, and if you have a chance, come back to see us.”

Shu Yu patted her, “I will, there will definitely be an opportunity. When you have time, read and recognize some characters, so you can write letters later.”

“Okay.”

After Fang Xiyue said her piece, the others came forward one after another.

Wang Changdong was the last to come over, looking somewhat agitated.

Just yesterday, he had been to the county office. The county magistrate personally told him to choose a successor from the current officers at the Manor, and that he would serve in the county office from now on.

Wang Changdong had hardly slept the previous night and still had dark circles under his eyes.

He knew that he owed his current fortune entirely to Shu Yu’s favor.

So as Shu Yu was leaving, he also prepared a large bundle of things, “I don’t really have anything valuable to offer, just a little token of appreciation. Please accept it.”

Shu Yu looked at the bulging parcel in front of her and did not refuse, “Thank you.”

Time was getting on; any further delay would lead into noon.

Wang Changdong took the lead in stepping back and said to everyone, “Alright, let’s stop here. Let Monarch Lu Xiang depart; if it gets later, it will be hard to find lodging at night.”

In fact, they could make it; Shu Yu was planning to stay at the courier station tonight.

Madam Hou might not know yet that she was leaving; before departing, it was necessary to visit her.

The people seeing them off stepped back, and the Lu family’s carriages slowly started moving forward.

Xu Zhensheng watched the carriages grow more distant and hastily started chasing after them, vigorously waving and saying goodbye to Dahu.

Then Fang Xiyue, Luo Qing, and a few others also ran a few steps after, not stopping until the carriages disappeared from sight.

“They’ve really left,” murmured Wang Changdong.

Although it had been several days since, recalling it now still felt like a dream.

He stood there for a long time, then sighed, “Okay, let’s go back.”
