The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 586: Chapter 586: Please ask Shu Yu to come over Chapter 586: Chapter 586: Please ask Shu Yu to come over The old lady was a sharp one, and it was clear she knew what was dawning on her mind.

“That scar removal cream is quite expensive in Dongan Province, but I happen to know the doctor who made it. To be honest with you, it was tested on the scar on Sanya’s face, so later on, he gave us two jars without asking for payment.”

Aunt Zhang did not expect there to be such a connection.

For a moment, she became even more keen to help the old lady find her lost granddaughter.

She hoped even more that Shu Yu was that very girl, so she could be credited with facilitating a happy occasion.

But even if Shu Yu was not the one, she would still ask around every nook and cranny of Righteous Dao Village, determined to help the old lady find that poor girl.

Because of the scar removal cream and Shu Yu, the two of them seemed to grow closer.

The old lady did not leave until the Zhang family elder son returned.

Pingning helped her with the water bucket, taking it back to the Lu family, and he even fetched a couple more buckets of water for the old lady.

The old lady and Aunt Zhang agreed that in the evening, she would visit the Zhang family once more, and then she would try her best to call Shu Yu over so they could meet.

The old lady was at ease, now just looking forward to the evening to come soon.

Shu Yu, busy on the barren land, was unaware that the old lady had laid out the path for her, waiting for her return to give her a surprise.

After toiling for the day, she thought it was almost enough; she would switch to hunting tomorrow.

It was only in the evening that everyone gradually made their way home.

Shu Yu, with her sharp eyes, noticed that on the other side of the mountain base, there was a house that seemed to be occupied.

But before she could take a closer look, she was called back home by Madam Hou.

Meanwhile, the Zhang family members, always attentive, learned that those who cleared the fields had returned and immediately sent Pingning to bring the old lady over.

Accompanying the old lady were Zhao Xi and Dahu, and in fact, a few others from Righteous Dao Village had come along.

Aunt Zhang was especially fascinated by the twins, Dahu and Sanya, who were both well-behaved and extremely polite.

Aunt Zhang asked her son Pingning to take the children to play and then said to the old lady, “Don’t worry just yet, all the workers have returned, I’ll send Pingning to find Miss Shu Yu right away.”

“Thank you very much,” said the old lady, bringing out the scar removal cream.

Without a second thought, Aunt Zhang called to her daughter, “Pingning, go see if Miss Shu Yu has returned yet? Ask her to come to our house for a bit.”

“I understand, Mother, I’ll go now.” She too saw the jar of scar removal cream, which only added to her excitement.

Shu Yu’s courtyard was not far from their home, hence Pingning found it quickly.

Who would have known that just as she was at the entrance, she heard Shu Yu’s voice coming from around the corner.

“Mrs. Xue, why are you stopping me? What’s the matter, weren’t you scared off last time?”

Pingning hesitated in her steps and could not help but stop to listen to their conversation.

From her viewpoint, it seemed like Shu Yu was speaking to a woman.

Mrs. Xue looked at Shu Yu with a bitter smile, “Can’t we just drop the hostility? I know I’ve been unkind to you before, and I’ve hurt you deeply. But Ayue, over these past ten or so years, I haven’t always been bad to you, have I? I’ve been kind to you, bought you clothes, held you when you were younger, fed you, took you shopping, and when others bullied you, I defended you. Don’t you remember any of these things? You can’t just remember the bad, can you?”
