The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

The account book is fine. Although Jiang Fengshou seems disorganized, he actually has a systematic way of doing things, recording every entry clearly.

And the profit is much higher than her estimate, so it looks like she’ll need to give him a raise.

After Shu Yu finished reading the account book, she took a rest. She planned to rest for a day in Changjin Prefecture. Since she was here, she definitely had to visit the Meng family. Especially since she was about to marry Meng Yunzheng, there were some trivial things to discuss.

So early the next morning, Shu Yu set off for Chenggu County.

Shuyou, along with the three of them and Little Song Le, didn’t follow. Firstly, after so many days on the road, they were quite tired, so it was a good chance to rest at the shop for a day. Secondly, Little Huohuo had gotten together with Jiang Fengshou’s kids here and was reluctant to leave, demanding for his sister first thing in the morning.

Yes, sister. With Little Song Le as his brother along the way, he was no longer interested, only happy if a pretty and gentle sister held him.

Before leaving, Shu Yu pinched his little cheek, ”So young and already going on about sisters? When you grow up, you’ll be a heartbreaker.”

”Radish, radish.” He didn’t understand at all, just excitedly repeating.

Shu Yu shook her head and left with Ying Xi.

They traveled swiftly and arrived in Chenggu County before noon.

Uncle Meng was quite surprised to see her, realizing she was heading to the capital and just passing by, he now understood.

”It’s good you’re going to the capital. Yunzheng is at his final exam, and no one is there with him. With you around, he’ll surely be happy, and might even perform better than usual.”

As Uncle Meng spoke, he started laughing and quickly instructed someone to prepare some food.

Shu Yu entered the escort agency but didn’t see anyone else, which surprised her, ”Where are Aunt and Ah Han?”

”They went shopping,” Uncle Meng said happily. ”A matchmaker recently arranged a potential marriage for Ah Qi. Ah Qi and the girl met and felt good about each other, so they plan to finalize it. Ah Han accompanied your aunt to buy engagement gifts. They should be back soon.”

Shu Yu was surprised, ”An engagement? Congratulations! When is it?”

”We’ve set the date. It’s in three days.”

Three days later, but Shu Yu couldn’t wait.

Uncle Meng said, ”We’ll discuss with the in-laws then and pick a date in the second half of the year for the wedding, right after yours and Yunzheng’s. This year, the Meng family will have two weddings. Double happiness, hahaha.”

As he spoke, he laughed again, infecting Shu Yu, who couldn’t help but shake her head with a smile.

Soon after, Ms. Tao and Meng Han returned.

Meng Han was very tempted upon hearing she was going to the capital, her eyes shifting with a wanting-to-tag-along expression.

Ms. Tao lightly hit her, ”Don’t even think about it. In three days, we’re arranging your brother’s engagement. If you run off now, people will think you’re unhappy with the sister-in-law and causing a fuss.”

Meng Han retracted her neck, realizing her brother’s marriage was a big deal she shouldn’t complicate unnecessarily.

She turned to ask about Shu Yu’s wedding plans, but before they said much, the gatekeeper suddenly rushed in and said, ”Madam outside requests to see the county magistrate.”

Shu Yu was surprised. She had only returned to the Meng family for less than an hour, and someone was already seeking her?

Shu Yu was not keen to meet them, as she didn’t plan to stay long in Chenggu County. Once urgent matters were discussed, she intended to return to the prefecture.
