The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1243: Chapter 1243: Zhang Family Members Among the Crowd

Now, Shuyou lay on Daniu’s back, swaying shakily, yet it felt as if they had been walking for a long, long time.

The heat in her eye sockets gradually became uncontrollable, and when she heard Madam Ruan’s crying behind her, she finally couldn’t hold back her tears.

The matchmaker walking beside her immediately beamed with joy, ”Yes, cry louder, don’t hold it in.”

Daniu glanced at the matchmaker and quickened his pace.

Outside the Lu family’s main gate, there was an eight-person sedan chair parked, with a tall horse tied with red silk beside it.

The matchmaker lifted the sedan curtain, and Daniu carefully placed the person inside.

Then the sedan chair bearers started asking for lucky money, which Lai Jinhai had long prepared, distributing red envelopes to all eight of them.

A loud and clear voice rang out, ”Lift the sedan—”

Shuyou felt the sedan sway, a feeling like losing her footing.

Firecrackers at the door were lit, crackling and popping along with the laughter of children, while the sounds of music and drumming from the front echoed far and wide.

Zhao Xi mounted the horse, the smile on his face never fading.

The procession began to move forward, and Madam Ruan and the old lady, who had been staying in the backyard, couldn’t hold back any longer and started to run towards the door.

They only stopped when they reached the main gate, watching the flowered sedan go farther and farther away, tears streaming down their faces.

Shu Yu supported the old lady’s hand and stood there for a while before softly advising, ”Grandmother, Mother, it’s windy outside, let’s go inside.”

The old lady dabbed at her eyes with a handkerchief and nodded, ”Yes, let’s go inside.” Although they had seen them off, many guests were still waiting for them back home.

Shu Yu, supporting the old lady, turned around. Just as they were about to walk inside, they suddenly paused, squinting slightly to look at the few figures not far away.

Today was a day of great joy for the Lu family, and many people had come to watch the event.

Even if they couldn’t get inside, it didn’t matter. They knew the Lu family doted on their daughter, and even standing at the door, they could get some sweets and snacks, sharing in the joy.

Thus the Lu family’s gate was still crowded with many onlookers.

What surprised Shu Yu was that this crowd actually included members of the Zhang family.

Initially, the two sisters-in-law from the Zhang family, who used to make Shuyou work hard, both came, each holding a child by the hand.

No one knew if it was because they had no one to work tirelessly for them anymore, but Madam Feng and Madam Zhou looked much thinner and more haggard compared to the last time, losing their former vigor and spirit.

Not only them, but even the two children had become timid and no longer had their previously arrogant and domineering nature.

At this moment, all four of them were enviously looking at the distant flowered sedan, and Madam Feng’s eyes were slightly red with jealousy.

”I really didn’t expect she would remarry after the separation. How did she get so lucky?”

”I heard her newly married husband is a skilled doctor, and for her, he specially bought a two-entry courtyard house in Jiangyuan County, renovated as magnificently as a landlord’s home.”

”Is that man blind? Falling for a worn-out shoe.” Madam Feng lowered her voice significantly at the last two words, not daring to let others hear them.

Madam Zhou looked at her, worn-out shoe? She’s being cherished as a treasure.

In contrast, the Zhang family had been pointed at and mocked in Dayan Village for so long, still being treated as a laughingstock by others.

Once, the Zhang family was so free-spirited in the village. Because Zhang Shu could earn money, their days went well. The sons and daughters had plenty of food, and their personalities were pampered, leading the children’s group in the village; now, however, they were bullied by other kids to the point they didn’t even dare to leave the house.
