Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 2407: Chapter 2407: The Old Lady Has a Few Words to Say

Shu Yu raised her eyebrows, “No need to worry about this. Erniu is now studying. According to Yun, although his academic aptitude is not as good as Ah Rui’s, with some effort, he should manage to pass the child student exam before getting married. As a child student, the bride he’ll marry may not necessarily come from a wealthy family, but she’s likely to be literate. As for Eldest Aunt, she can’t even recognize two big characters, yet she both desires and fears having such a daughter-in-law.”

Moreover, since Erniu is sensible and has three older siblings as examples, he should be able to manage his own small family well without Eldest Aunt’s interference.

The two sisters were chatting when they saw Meng Yunzheng returning from outside.

“Awake?” He brought dinner with him, likely having run into Ying Xi along the way.

Shu Yu touched her belly, and Shuyou immediately tidied up the table and left, giving them a private moment to talk.

The dinner was specifically made for her, consisting of small wontons and refreshing side dishes. After eating a couple of bites, Shu Yu felt comfortable and then asked, “How are Cousin Sister-in-law and Little Song Le doing?”

“Both were very emotional, feeling better only after dinner. I had a room cleaned up for them to rest. As they are reunited now, they’ll be fine after spending a couple of days together.”

As he spoke, he used a handkerchief to wipe her mouth.

“I went to the Office and transferred Cousin Sister-in-law’s household registration here, putting her under the same household as Song Le.”

Meng Yunzheng would manage these matters well, so Shu Yu didn’t need to worry.

In fact, it wasn’t just these matters. Ever since they found out she was pregnant, she hardly needed to involve herself in affairs inside or outside the house.

She intended to visit the workshop the next day once she felt rested. Unexpectedly, before she could set off, several stewards from the workshop, which had already closed for the holiday, came to report their work.

All Shu Yu needed to do was listen without any worries.

There were also bills sent from Dongan Province, Changjin Prefecture, and several shops in the capital. Seeing the number of words on them, Shu Yu nearly laughed her face sore.

Compared to her leisure, Meng Yunzheng was much busier. Especially as the academy had just opened when he went to the southwest, leaving Master Wen to temporarily manage things here.

Fortunately, the academy had just been established, so there weren’t many students. Even though many scholars came, attracted by Meng Yunzheng and the two great scholars for guidance, they were manageable in number, with most still observing.

Now that the academy was on break, the students had returned home.

However, the two great scholars would be spending the New Year at the academy. Meng Yunzheng invited them to have New Year’s Eve dinner at their home, but after being refused by the two teachers, he could only send new year’s gifts as a sign of respect.

But his busyness lasted only two days, as soon it was the eve of the new year.

This year, at the old lady’s request, everyone gathered at the Lu family for the New Year’s Eve dinner.

This included Lu Sanzhu and Lu Sixing with their juniors, as well as the Zhao family, the Meng family, and guest families like the Xu family and the Fang family. Five or six tables were livelily set up in the front hall of the Lu family.

The old lady sat at the main seat, looking at the harmonious and happy large family, suddenly feeling a surge of emotion that even her hand holding the chopsticks put down.

Shu Yu, sitting beside her, noticed and quietly asked, “Grandmother, what’s wrong?”

“I am just, happy.”

The old lady said, then suddenly stood up, holding a wine cup in her hand, “Everyone, before we eat, I wish to say a few words.”

Everyone stopped, and Shuyou kept the mischievous Little Huohuo in place, raising her eyes to the sentimental old lady.
