The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

The old lady’s gaze swept over everyone, ”This big family reunion day is something I never dared to dream of before. A few years ago, the thing on my mind was finding Yu as soon as possible, to see my little sister again. That way, I could die content.”

Shu Yu quickly held her hand. The old lady smiled, ”It’s alright, I’m telling the truth. I’m getting on in years and just wish for my children and grandchildren to be well. Now, it truly feels like a dream. Yu is back, my sister is back too, and life is getting better. I am truly happy in my heart.”

As she spoke, she looked at Lu Dasong, ”Boss, you are a filial son, an honest and obedient one, taking good care of your younger siblings. You’ve worked diligently in the fields all your life, and now that life is better, you haven’t picked up any bad habits. As the eldest brother of the family, you’ve done very well.”

Lu Dasong’s eyes were red, ”Mother.”

The old lady continued, taking a sip of wine from her cup, ”The children from the eldest household have all turned out successful. Daniu, as the eldest grandson, has always been very responsible, shouldering the family’s burdens. He is now the Chief Steward of the workshop, capable of managing things on his own, very commendable. Cuihua and Lanhua have also found good families, and both grandsons-in-law are very capable, which makes me very happy. And Erniu, you’ve been studying very hard. The teacher recently told me that you’ve made significant progress, which pleases Grandmother.”

Those mentioned stood up; it was rare for the old lady to be so emotional, so they all toasted her with a drink.

The old lady quickly turned her gaze to Lu Erbai, ”Erbai has had the hardest life. With Yu lost, you’ve searched for over ten years, and your leg became crippled. With no money, no food at home, it seemed all the hardships fell on you. Seeing it hurt me, but I was powerless and couldn’t help you. Fortunately, heaven didn’t completely forsake us. Yu came back, you’ve opened a shop, and now your business is flourishing, so Mother can feel at ease.”

Lu Erbai raised his head and took a large swig of wine.

The old lady spoke again, ”The children from the second household, like Erbai, have also suffered the most. Ah You encountered unfortunate people early on and nearly lost her life, but after enduring hardships, she now has a loving husband, obedient children, and stands strong herself, which delights Grandmother.”

Then, she turned to Shu Yu, patting her head, ”You child, though you are the most successful now, with the highest status and greatest skills, you are also the one Grandmother feels most for. Among all these children, only you bore everything alone from a young age with no one to help or care for you. If it were possible, Grandmother would rather not have the wealthy life we have now, just to exchange it for your safe and untaken by evildoers life.”

”Grandmother.” Shu Yu’s throat choked up a bit.

The old lady said, ”Without you, there wouldn’t be the Lu family we have today. Yu, Grandmother wants to thank you. Grandmother is also very happy that you’re married now and expecting a child. I truly have no regrets.”

Shu Yu didn’t drink, so Meng Yunzheng replaced it with warm water for her.

She didn’t say anything but clinked glasses with the old lady.

The old lady, smiling broadly, looked at Shurui and Shuning, ”And the two of you, so small and thin as children, Ah Ning couldn’t even walk steadily. Now, one is a child student, the other will be a skilled doctor in the future, so Grandmother has no worries.”
