Chapter 1,209 The Location Is in Peach Blossom Forest
In this huge Jiangyuan County, Shu Yu, the village king, is considered a noble person. If she hadn't gone, outsiders wouldn't know how to speculate on her relationship with the county magistrate's wife.
Especially...when Shu Yu has a good relationship with the county magistrate.
Ding Yuehua comforted Shu Yu, "Fortunately, this is not a formal banquet. The venue is in the peach blossom forest. I guess I can just walk around there and enjoy the flowers before I can come back. I will accompany you then, Let’s just find a corner to talk by ourselves.”
Peach Blossom Forest is where Lu Sanzhu works.
It is usually open to the public free of charge, but there are also private ones specially reserved for young ladies from rich families to play alone.
Xiao should have chosen a place like that.
Ding Yuehua saw that her expression softened a little, and said with a smile, "You have been busy for so long, and you should really relax. Don't be so tight. There will be endless things to do. I estimate that the county magistrate's wife will be surrounded by people during the banquet. There are many people talking to her, so if we don’t join in, we’ll just pretend we’re going to the peach blossom forest by ourselves.”
Shu Yu looked at her amusedly, "Why don't you move forward? Then do you know the identity of this county magistrate's wife? She is the mother-in-law of the third prince and the niece of Concubine Xiao."
Ding Yuehua's eyes widened, "So powerful?"
"Um."
Ding Yuehua was moved for a moment, but then quickly shook his head, "Forget it, the prince and his wife in the capital are too far away from us. Even if we want to be friends with someone, we have to be of equal status. Our family is here There are several shops and workshops in the small county town, one in the sky and one on the ground, and it’s useless to go to them.”
"You can see clearly."
"I'm not as good as you. You know his identity, but you're still considering whether to go to the banquet? In the eyes of others, you look like you're getting an advantage and acting like a good boy."
Shu Yu thought for a while, and it seemed that he was indeed a little ignorant of current affairs.
She couldn't help but laugh.
But now that she had decided, she no longer hesitated and asked Hua Xian to send the reply to the county government.
Ying Xi and Ying Dong set out for Huajiang Prefecture half a month ago.
The old lady saw that there was no one around her to help her. There were not many servants in the Lu family, and now they were all performing their duties.
She asked Hua Xian to follow her and help run errands.
Shu Yu usually doesn't take Hua Xian with him when he goes to Zhuangzi, and only asks the driver to take her with him.
But when I was at home, occasionally if I was too busy with something, I would ask Hua Xian to run over.
In the next few days, Shu Yu was still busy with the workshop in an orderly manner.
On the third day, she picked out some clothes and put on light makeup that didn't stand out, looking refreshing and energetic.
She is looking gray these days. She basically comes and goes as she pleases. She comes and goes in such a hurry that she has no time to dress up. Even the old lady says she doesn't look like a girl.
Now he finally got praise from the old lady, and she happily sent her granddaughter out.
Ding Yuehua was already waiting outside the door. She also lived on Fenghuai Street now. They were close to each other and they were going to the same place, so they simply took the same carriage and had each other's company.
Shu Yu got into Ding Yuehua's car and took Hua Xian with him.
When the group arrived at the Peach Blossom Forest, it was neither too early nor too late, and it would not attract anyone's attention.
The two of them planned to keep a low profile and stay away from the crowd to the end.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he got off the car, Ding Yuehua's face suddenly darkened when he saw Kong Zhiyou who had also arrived not far away.
