Chapter 2039: Chapter 2039: Sheâs Clearly Here to Spite Them
Some people in the Ruan Family Village, having heard all this, were slowly starting to catch on.
This wasnât simply talking to Old Lady Ruan, it was clearly to provoke her. Did the county magistrate already know that every time Old Lady Ruan heard good news from the Lu family, she would curse angrily?
The doctor said Old Lady Ruan got sick and died from anger, and now, even after her death, she has to hear about the Lu familyâs good days?
Especially since Old Lady Ruanâs eldest daughter, whom she despises the most, is now living a wealthy ladyâs life, served by maids, with the best food and accommodation. She can do whatever she wants, and her children have promising futures and can even go to the capital?
Not only that, after returning from the capital, they have to go to Old Lady Ruanâs grave to provoke her once more?
The villagers of Ruan Family Village were worried that Old Lady Ruan might rise from the ground in anger.
Shu Yu didnât care what others thought; she had much more to say. âOh, speaking of going to the capital, thereâs actually an opportunity soon. At the beginning of next year, we can set off. Grandmother, do you know why? Itâs because my fiancĂ© did exceptionally well in the provincial examination, becoming the top scorer, and come next year, we can accompany him to the capital for further exams.â
The villagers of Ruan Family Village were stunned. Top scorer�
County Lord Luâs fiancĂ©, that Young Master Meng, not only achieved the small trinity of top academic scores, but now heâs also first in the provincial exam!!
If, if things continue to go smoothly, and he ranks first in the metropolitan exam too, wouldnât that be a historic achievementâhis name would go down in history?
The crowd couldnât help but gasp; the Lu family days were indeed getting better and better.
Their eyes turned to Shu Yu, filled with both envy and jealousy.
Shu Yu took out a letter from her sleeve. âItâs quite a coincidence, I just learned this news. Iâve already asked Ying Xi to prepare the carriage, and the bailiff from the courier station happened to come by and informed me of Yunâs top scorer news. It seems even heaven knew I was coming to see Grandmother, so they sent the news to share with her, so sheâd rest in peace.â
âGrandmother, arenât you happy to hear that your future granddaughter-in-law is so accomplished? You donât need to worry about how heâll treat me in the future. Yun said that after he succeeds next year, he will ask the Emperor to grant us marriage. From then on, heâll only have me as his wife and wonât look at other women. Are you pleased with this future granddaughter-in-law?â
Shu Yuâs ability to lie with her eyes wide open had reached a masterful level, but the Ruan brothers nearby listened with twisted, contorted expressions.
Ying Xi glanced at them and handed over the water pouch. âMiss, have some water, speak slowly.â
Shu Yu took it and drank two sips.
Everyoneâs gaze immediately focused on the water pouch, their expressions odd.
Ying Xi explained, âOur old lady is worried that Miss might be overly sad, and talking too much would hurt her throat, so she specifically had the eldest brother-in-law prepare some medicinal tea.â
Yes, thatâs the reason, definitely not because they were afraid the Ruan family put spit in the tea.
After Ying Xi finished speaking, she held the pouch forward, and there was indeed a faint medicinal aroma, somewhat refreshing to smell.
Shu Yu wiped the corner of her mouth and continued, âYes, this is tea prepared by our old lady; she treats me dearest. My Grandmother is getting older now, but Grandmother, you left so suddenly. In the future, I will pay extra attention to my Grandmotherâs health and ensure she lives to a ripe old age.â
