The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Ying Xi said with some emotion, ”The county magistrate is going through both pain and joy regarding this, it’s really not easy.”

With more people, things are more prone to accidents. Lord Xie feared that among them a bad one might mix in. But suddenly, Jiangyuan County attracted so many scholars, the reputation will spread, and eventually, the economy will surely develop. This would greatly bolster his political achievements.

Shu Yu thought, these things must all be within Meng Yunzheng’s expectations, right?

When he returned in the evening, she specifically asked him, and he indeed nodded, ”After I came back from the Capital, I chatted with Lord Xie. Recently, he has intentionally strengthened patrol management within the city, there’s not much of an issue.”

Shu Yu nodded, then thought of Ying Xi’s matter, immediately asking with curiosity, ”Do you know about Xia Yan always buying food for Ying Xi?”

”I know.”

Shu Yu suddenly sat up, ”You know?”

”He’s someone around me, such intentions naturally can’t escape me. He likes Ying Xi, buying her favorite things is normal.”

Shu Yu was confused, ”But Ying Xi is someone around me too, why didn’t I discover this for so long?”

Meng Yunzheng laughed, hugged her while lying back down, ”That’s because Ying Xi hasn’t figured things out yet. See, Xia Yan has been feeding for so long, but still no progress at all, I quite feel embarrassed.”

Shu Yu thought of what Ying Xi said during the day, her mouth twitched in agreement, ”She really hasn’t figured it out yet. She even thought Xia Yan was doing this to probe information from her.”

Because she felt Xia Yan wasn’t well-intentioned, Ying Xi feasted on his food with peace of mind, without any hesitation.

Poor Xia Yan fed for over half a year, not only yielded no progress, but also gained a ’scoundrel’ image.

Thinking of this, Meng Yunzheng couldn’t help but want to laugh.

Shu Yu smacked him, ”He is your person, yet you laugh, that’s unkind.”

”Been around me for so long, yet didn’t learn the essence, I’m almost embarrassed to say, what’s wrong with laughing?” Meng Yunzheng hugged her tight, ”Let’s not worry about this matter, let them sort it out themselves.”

Shu Yu nodded, ”I didn’t plan to interfere. Either Xia Yan decides to break the ice himself, or wait for when Ying Xi figures it out, stepping in might just backfire.”

”Mm. But Ying Dong’s wife is pregnant, I should prepare a gift.”

Ying Dong is the Lu family’s butler on Shu Yu’s side. But on Meng Yunzheng’s side, he’s a childhood playmate friend.

As a friend, of course, Meng Yunzheng has to offer congratulations.

”Someday I’ll buy a gift box and leave it here for you. I’m going to the southwest and don’t know when I can return, if I can’t make it back before his child is born, you take it over for me.”

Talking about going to the southwest, Shu Yu’s mood visibly dropped.

She sighed slightly, having to part just days after the wedding, it’s truly distressing.

Because of this, Shu Yu couldn’t bring herself to refuse him at night, almost unable to get out of bed the next day.

She must say once again, once a man gets a taste, truly, too, terrifying, it, is!

Shu Yu rested fiercely for a day, originally planning to accompany Meng Yunzheng to meet the two teachers—they finally appeared, right on the day before school starts.

After all, they’re great scholars, Shu Yu wanted to join Meng Yunzheng to host them, partly out of curiosity, partly to show respect.

But now in her current state, she feared going out would make her the center of attention, so she decided against it.

Instead, she conserved her energy, waiting for tomorrow’s school opening.
