The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1260: Chapter 1260: Shu Feng’s Misdeeds

However, the He Family couldn’t manage it.

The distance between the two families widened, and their living standards changed drastically, making the He Family feel unbalanced. Knowing that the magistrate’s son took a liking to their daughter, the He Family was naturally delighted.

But Ms. He was not pleased. She had feelings for Xia Yan, and moreover, why would she become a concubine when she had the chance to be a wife? Wasn’t that degrading herself?

Ms. He’s parents were exasperated with her. Later, they conspired with Shu Feng, and together they framed the Xia Family from the inside out.

The Xia Family got embroiled in a lawsuit and were imprisoned, their family assets were completely squandered.

Later, the family of three was sold off, and at that point, it was impossible for Ms. He to marry Xia Yan.

It was just that, upon hearing that her family’s demise was orchestrated by her own parents, Ms. He couldn’t bear it and jumped into the river to end her life. Fortunately, she was saved by someone.

Coincidentally, her savior was Shu Feng’s wife.

Ms. He became the maid of Shu Feng’s wife. With his wife as her protector, Shu Feng did not dare to lay a finger on her.

Moreover, during that period, troubles in the Shu family were constant, and Ms. He was quickly forgotten by Shu Feng. Later on, Shu Feng and his wife divorced, and his wife returned to her maternal home, with Ms. He going along.

It is said that Ms. He got married, completely severing ties with Xia Yan. Given their situation, not severing ties was impossible.

As for Xia Yan, shortly after being sold to the main family, Father Xia and Mother Xia fell ill in prison and died soon after.

Xia Yan managed to thrive. He was educated and had some skills, gaining the favor of the main family.

Who knew that because of this, he would catch the eye of the main family’s young lady. Naturally, the main family couldn’t tolerate him and sold him off again. That’s when he met Meng Yunzheng.

Upon hearing this, Shu Yu couldn’t help but glance back at Xia Yan.

Perhaps due to an emotional shadow, Xia Yan hurriedly lowered his head.

Shu Yu, “…”

Meng Yunzheng gently turned his head back and smiled, “What are you looking at?”

Shu Yu, with a tight-lipped expression, replied earnestly, “Just now, standing next to you, he was completely overshadowed by you, so I didn’t notice what he looked like. Now, I’m just curious about the appearance that attracted a young lady.”

Though Meng Yunzheng knew she was blatantly lying, he couldn’t help but be in a good mood.

Seeing this, Shu Yu swiftly changed the topic, “Besides Xia Yan, how many others did you buy?”

“Also a family of three, a couple with a son of thirteen or fourteen. The woman used to be a wet nurse for a wealthy family, experienced in taking care of children, so she’s perfect for looking after Little Song Le.”

While they spoke, they had already arrived at the entrance of the Manor.

Shu Yu also saw the family of three that Meng Yunzheng mentioned, and they all seemed somewhat reserved, respectfully greeting Shu Yu.

Shu Yu told them to rest a while in the Manor and intended to take a walk in the fields.

It was Meng Yunzheng who accompanied her, just the two of them this time.

The sunflowers were growing well, Daniu was diligently taking care of them. There were always people patrolling the fields, and as harvest time approached, they became even more vigilant.

Seeing Shu Yu, they enthusiastically greeted her.

Meng Yunzheng laughed, “The people you’ve chosen are quite good.”

“I have a good eye.”

Meng Yunzheng chuckled, then suddenly paused when he lifted his gaze.

Shu Yu followed his gaze, and that direction… seemed to be the black market.

Thinking of this, Shu Yu felt a bit of a headache. She and Xiang Weinan couldn’t find a good solution for the time being.
