Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1151: Chapter 1151 Meng Pei’s Face Changes in One Second

By noon, there was finally a sound at the courtyard gate once more.

The gate was pushed open, and Shu Yu looked up to see Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi walking in together.

“How come you two returned together?” Wasn’t Meng Yunzheng supposed to leave the city with the Fifth Prince? Zhao Xi went out shopping.

Meng Yunzheng smiled and said, “We ran into each other at the alley entrance. Have you eaten yet?”

Shu Yu waved her hand and lowered her voice to whisper, “Quiet, let me tell you, this morning Uncle Meng…”

Before she could finish speaking, a loud voice came from behind her, “Meng Yunzheng!”

Shu Yu turned her head and, oh, when did he wake up?

Even Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi were stunned and their steps halted.

Shu Yu said, “I was just about to tell you, Uncle Meng and Uncle Zhao have arrived.”

Meanwhile, Old Doctor Zhao also emerged from another room.

Compared to the fully awake-looking Meng Pei, he seemed much more tired, rubbing his eyes and saying quite unhappily, “Meng Pei, why are you shouting again? I was sleeping soundly, and you woke me up.”

Meng Pei completely ignored him and, seeing Meng Yunzheng entering the living room, immediately started berating him head-on.

“Yun, you’ve really grown wings, and your ideas are getting bigger, aren’t they? You don’t even regard this old father of yours. Such a big matter, you didn’t even inform me before you started taking action. It’s one thing to put yourself at risk, but after all the trouble of tricking… ahem, finding a daughter-in-law, you’re putting the girl in danger too. Is this how you do things? I’ve told you since you were a child, you can’t just think about yourself in life and work. It’s one thing not to tell me, but after everything is done, you didn’t even send me a single letter. Meng Yunzheng, have you forgotten your last name, huh?”

Meng Yunzheng said nothing at all, allowing him to rant.

On the side, Old Doctor Zhao and Zhao Xi, as mentor and apprentice, exchanged a glance and then sat aside, watching with great interest.

They didn’t bother with pleasantries, given that due to Zhao Xi’s marriage matters, the two had been in frequent correspondence recently and had nothing much to say.

Two grown men, no need for excessive warmness.

Ironically, Meng Yunzheng and Meng Pei, at such a crucial time, dared not communicate in writing, and the two had been out of touch for quite a while.

As a result, Meng Pei kept berating Meng Yunzheng for quite some time without stopping.

Shu Yu contemplated whether to intervene, meanwhile Zhao Xi handed her a tea cup just in time, “Have some tea, just listen to them.”

Shu Yu then silently sat back and sipped her tea.

Then she caught Meng Yunzheng’s glance directed at her; she quietly smiled back at him, slowly raised the teacup to cover her face, blocking his gaze as well.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to mediate, she just really didn’t know how to.

Meng Yunzheng could only sigh quietly, and seeing that Meng Pei had almost finished his scolding, he finally spoke slowly, “Dad, scolding me like this in front of Yu makes me lose face. If she gets fed up with me, you’ll have no daughter-in-law.”

Meng Pei was momentarily stunned, and the next moment, his expression changed abruptly. He affectionately patted Meng Yunzheng’s shoulder, and with a change in tone, spoke earnestly, “Of course, you handled the matter beautifully this time. Not only was it a huge success, but you also avenged your mother. It shows that you are bold yet meticulous and have mature ideas. Dad, of course, understands you well.”
