Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1804: Chapter 1804: Recognizing Family

Granny Fang was at a loss for words; Shu Yu’s remarks made it impossible for her to refuse.

Granny Feng, standing nearby, also urged her, “This is Village Chief Lu Xiang’s heartfelt gesture. You and your sister were separated for over thirty years, and now you’re reuniting. It’s a rare occasion of great joy and destiny, so don’t decline.”

Granny Fang gazed at the items in the box, her eyes slightly warm with emotion.

She took a deep breath and smiled, “Alright, Aunt won’t stand on ceremony with you.”

“We’re family; there’s no need for formalities.”

Everyone in the room burst into laughter, many expressing envy.

Who could have imagined that Granny Fang, once the loneliest and most sympathetic figure in Hedeng Village, would receive such a blessing?

Congratulations abounded, one after another.

When Yuan Gui and An Ming entered, carrying baskets and boxes, the excited shouts resonated inside and outside the Fang household. Even Granny Feng thought Shu Yu was exceedingly generous.

In the box were two sets of clothes, both for Granny Fang.

Shu Yu said, “I’m not sure about the customs of recognizing relatives, but I’ve heard new clothes are worn on this day. I know Aunt has likely prepared some herself, but the ready-to-wear shop’s clothes looked nice, so I bought two sets. It’s almost New Year after all, new clothes for new beginnings.”

“…You…” Granny Fang was utterly helpless; why was the child so sincere? How much did all this cost?

Shu Yu said, “I bought them based on Aunt’s figure but I’m not sure if they fit. If not, I’ll send them back to the shop to have them altered.”

“No need for such trouble. If they don’t fit, we can easily alter them ourselves,” Granny Feng laughed, holding the clothes. She could tell from the feel that the fabric was top-notch, and soon prompted Granny Fang to try them on, “Quickly change and show us.”

Others chimed in, urging her, and Granny Fang, initially embarrassed, was directly pushed into another room.

When she emerged, she was dressed in the clothes Shu Yu had bought.

Everyone’s eyes lit up, “The clothes fit perfectly, even the color is flattering. Village Chief Lu Xiang has such a keen eye.”

Granny Fang’s fair complexion, combined with her slender and petite frame, made her look quite appealing in the outfit.

Those around her commented that Granny Fang looked several years younger, which made her shy, her already pale cheeks now red as if dyed with rouge.

Fortunately, the Old Village Chief then called out, “The auspicious time has come, let’s not linger here.”

The appointed hours for recognizing relatives had been calculated, and upon hearing this, Granny Fang inexplicably became nervous.

She adjusted her clothes, and someone approached from the left, gently taking hold of her arm.

When she turned, it was Shu Yu; seeing his calm demeanor, she found herself soothed.

Granny Fang was helped to the main room, took another deep breath, and sat in the principal seat.

The family wasn’t sizable, nor were they wealthy, so the ceremony was naturally straightforward.

The Old Village Chief officiated, and though aged, his voice was robust.

He first recited a passage from the classic of filial piety, expressing maternal love and profound affection between parent and child.

Next, Yuan Gui entered, earnestly echoing the Old Village Chief’s words.
