The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Shurui panted heavily a couple of times, then looked up at Meng Yunzheng with shining eyes.

”Second Brother-in-law, I passed the child student examination.”

Meng Yunzheng said with a smile, ”Well, I heard about it, you did a great job.”

Getting affirmation from both his brother-in-law and teacher, Shurui was overwhelmed with excitement, ”But Brother-in-law, you’re even more amazing, getting six continuous top scores. The whole county town has been talking about it, and your academy will never lack students in the future.”

As he spoke, he was jumping around, ”In these past few days when I returned to Shangshi Village, many people from surrounding villages came to inquire, and some even brought gifts, wanting to enroll in your academy.”

The current Shangshi Village and the surrounding villages are no longer what they used to be.

Ever since Shu Yu began purchasing melon seeds, at least more than half the people around here planted sunflowers, and some even directly worked in Lu’s workshop.

Another portion of them, doing manual labor, would follow Lu Erbai, working everywhere.

With money in hand, everyone’s life gradually became more comfortable. Moreover, Shu Yu’s major prerequisite for hiring in Lu’s is to be literate, which results in higher wages for the staff and easier promotions.

Having experienced the advantages of literacy, those parents with a long-term vision naturally want to send their children to study, right? Just in time, Master Top Scorer came back to open an academy. Perhaps under his tutelage, their children might, just like Shurui, pass the child student examination, or even become a scholar. Isn’t that so?

Shu Yu walked out from the living room and, hearing Shurui’s words, felt a bit helpless, ”So, you returned to the village and couldn’t avoid it?”

”Second Sister.” Shurui chuckled, glanced back to see that the old lady and the others hadn’t come close yet, and quickly said, ”Although we couldn’t avoid it, my grandmother is really happy. These few days, the smile hasn’t left her face.”

How could the old lady not be happy about something that brings honor to the family?

Those who used to look down upon her and secretly mocked her three sons for being unsuccessful, now have to come to her with flattering smiles asking for favors. She felt so vindicated, she could walk with her head held high.

”Talking bad about me again behind my back, are you.” The old lady wasn’t slow to catch up and had already walked up behind Shurui, raising her hand to knock him on the head.

Shurui shrank his neck and hid behind Meng Yunzheng.

The old lady looked at the two in front of her, extremely happy, ”Good, it’s good you’re back. There are only twenty days until the wedding; we need to hurry.”

Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng supported her from either side as they entered the door.

Madam Ruan, walking on Shu Yu’s other side, whispered, ”Your wedding dress, I’ve finished it for you. Come to my room later to try it on. If it doesn’t fit, we still have time to alter it.”

Shu Yu tilted her head to lean on her shoulder, ”Thank you, Mother, you’re wonderful.”

In other families, the bride has to embroider her wedding dress herself. But the Lu family didn’t let Shu Yu worry at all.

Madam Ruan patted her face, ”You, have you lost weight?”

”No, I’ve been eating well and dressing warmly, so how could I lose weight.”

After returning, the two of them brought a lot of vitality to the Lu family; everyone shared a heartwarming time and only returned to their rooms very late.

Shu Yu tried on the wedding dress, and it fit well and looked beautiful, especially the embroidery, which was meticulous with every stitch made by Madam Ruan.

In the past, Madam Ruan could make clothes but wasn’t skilled in embroidery. Later, she learned for a long time from the embroiderers hired by Yiren Pavilion. She truly has some talent in this area and could now be an embroiderer.
