The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 850: Chapter 850: Back to Jiangyuan County

Shu Yu: ”I’m sorry, the one who actually has a psychological trauma, is me.”

Tears refused to come as she felt uneasy, and the next morning, the younger girl noticed her second elder sister looked unwell. She touched her forehead with great concern and asked worriedly, ”Second sister, what’s wrong with you? Were you frightened by what happened yesterday?”

She didn’t think it was the knife-wielding thug that scared Shu Yu, after all, the second sister could kick a man flying with one foot.

Sanya was worried that it was the sight of the second sister nearly getting stabbed that had frightened her.

Shu Yu was speechless, but once she went outside, members of the Lu family approached quietly and inquired about her condition with concern.

Shu Yu shook her head to everyone, ”Nothing’s wrong at all.”

Then, the old lady looked at her with a very subtle expression.

Shu Yu thought there might be something wrong with her complexion since she hadn’t slept well, but the old lady whispered, ”Yu, haven’t you noticed how much braver Sanya has become lately?”

One could describe it as being incredibly bold.

Having listened to Yu’s description of yesterday, just thinking about it made the old lady feel extraordinarily terrified.

Moreover, Sanya not only experienced it firsthand but also stood directly in front of the criminal, her face splashed with blood. Wasn’t that scene horrifying?

But she was completely unharmed and even stayed to help.

The old lady found it incredibly unbelievable, ”Previously, that girl barely had any courage. If I raised my voice slightly, she would think I was going to devour her, just curling up and not even daring to go out. But look at her now...”

As she spoke, she looked again at Shu Yu.

Ever since Yu had returned, Sanya had changed.

Shu Yu, ”...” It really wasn’t her fault; it was entirely Zhao Xi’s fault, yes, him for exposing Sanya to blood.

Lu Erbai, who was nearby, commented thoughtfully, ”This is probably the difference between having confidence and lacking it.”

Everyone agreed upon reflection; Sanya had primarily become more confident, and with confidence, came fearlessness.

Not to mention, Shu Yu, who caused her shift in mindset, was right by her side; what did she have to be afraid of?

Shu Yu chuckled a bit and quickly changed the subject, ”Since there’s nothing wrong, let’s pack up and start our journey, or we’ll be delayed another day.”

”Right, right, stop talking and start moving the luggage onto the cart.”

The Lu family got busy, and in no time, they had hitched up three carts and left the inn, passed through the city gates, and departed from Dongan Province.

Perhaps because they were soon arriving home, the Lu family became quite eager, not stopping along the way and hurriedly yet steadily, finally arriving at Jiangyuan County just before the city gates closed.

The Lu family had left the county town last September, and now it was the end of April, a full eight months.

Returning now felt almost surreal.

”It does look quite a bit more lively than before,” the old lady remarked.

Lu Erbai nodded, ”Indeed, with Lord Xiang here, our Jiangyuan County will surely keep getting better.”

The former county magistrate was no good, hoarding everything for himself and not caring about the lives of the common people, naturally leading to poorer governance of the county.

During the conversation, the mule carriage entered Liufang Alley.

It was already quite late today, and Shu Yu needed to meet Xiang Weinan at the county office early tomorrow to finalize the registrations and property.

Therefore, they planned to stay in the county town for one day, returning to Shangshi Village the following day.
