Chapter 2305 Going to Zhang’s House
Fang Xiyue's attention was diverted as expected. She nodded, "Yes, their home is still where it is and they have not moved away."
But she felt a little strange in her heart. It was understandable for Ayu to go to Xu's house for a walk. Shu Yu had just been exiled to Zhengdao Village. When he was clearing land, he was in the same group as the Xu family. Later, he introduced Xu Dali, who had lost one hand but was literate, to do registration work in Zhuangzi.
The Xu family's life was much better. The whole family was very grateful to Shu Yu, and they kept in touch occasionally, and the relationship never broke.
But this house...
The Zhang family did have a good relationship with Shu Yu at the beginning. The Shu family's house was not far from the Zhang family. When they first arrived in Zhengdao Village, Shu Yu wanted to be a good neighbor and used scar removal cream to exchange food with the Zhang family.
But later, the Zhang family's aunt fell in love with Shu Yu and wanted her to marry her son. This was quite embarrassing. Although they didn't break up, they were estranged from each other. After Shu Yu returned to Dong'an Mansion, they never contacted each other again.
Why does she want to go to Zhang's house this time?
But Fang Xiyue didn't think much about it. She just thought it was a rare visit and it was no big deal to go and have a look.
So after Fang Xiyue handed her son to Aunt Fang, she took Shu Yu to Zhang's house first.
The Zhang family heard about Shu Yu's return to Zhengdao Village. They felt that Shu Yu would never come to visit him. After so many years, it was not certain whether people would remember them.
Who knew that while they were discussing, they heard a knock on the door from outside.
Aunt Zhang went to open the door and was stunned when she saw the person standing outside the door.
"Shu Yu?"
"Long time no see, everything is okay, auntie."
Shu Yu handed over the gift box with a smile, and Aunt Zhang took it blankly. It took a while to realize it, and she greeted her enthusiastically, "It's really you, come on, come in, why are you so polite and giving me such a gift?" Come with more stuff.”
"It's a rare visit. There's no reason to come empty-handed."
Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng entered the door and asked Xia Yan to stay outside.
Aunt Zhang said, "Come in together, don't stand outside."
Meng Yuncheng smiled and said, "It's okay, let him guard it."
"Well, that's okay." Aunt Zhang laughed dryly, but she had forgotten that now that Shu Yu was the head of the county, it was not unusual for the servants to stay outside.
For some reason, Aunt Zhang always felt awkward when facing Meng Yunzheng. He obviously looked like a gentle and polite scholar, but when she met his eyes, she felt inexplicably guilty.
After entering the house, Aunt Zhang quickly asked her daughter-in-law to pour tea for several people.
Looking at Shu Yu in front of her, and then at her daughter-in-law, she didn't know, this comparison really compares to heaven and earth. Aunt Zhang couldn't help but sigh secretly.
If Shu Yu had really made peace with his family back then, now their whole family would have followed the rising tide and left this ghost place.
"Where's Pingning?" Shu Yu asked.
Aunt Zhang said, "She got married the year after you left Southwest. She is in the next village. I will send someone to call her back right now. You can just catch up on old times."
Shu Yu immediately stopped her, "No, we're just going to come over and take a look. We won't be able to sit here for long. We have to visit Xu's house later."
When Aunt Zhang heard that she had come to her place first before going to Xu's house, she couldn't help but feel happy, and the smile on her face became even brighter.
However, Shu Yu did not stop for long. He exchanged greetings with Aunt Zhang and chatted about the current situation before leaving.
