Chapter 1831: I Am the Wen'an County Lord

Chapter 1831: Chapter 1831: I Am the Wen’an County Lord

Uncle Meng didn’t quite understand why Third Uncle Lu was so excited. He nodded hesitantly, “Yes, yes, what’s going on?”

“Nothing, nothing.” Lu Sanzhu shook his head with great regret, sighed, and his expression suddenly became serious, “I just think it’s such a pity. I didn’t expect we came at the wrong time and just missed it.”

Everyone, “…”

The old lady glared at him, then turned to Uncle Meng and said, “Yunzheng is a capable child, and he must have important matters in the prefecture. Whenever he has time to come back, it’s the same if we meet him then.”

Uncle Meng laughed cheerfully, feeling that the old lady Lu family was indeed understanding.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Ms. Tao came over and said, “You’ve had a hard journey. I’ve already got rooms ready. Go back and rest for a while. Once you’ve regained your energy, we’ll have a welcome dinner for everyone this evening.”

Uncle Meng nodded repeatedly, “Yes, yes, the journey is exhausting. Let Shu Yu bring you to rest.”

The old lady was indeed tired and was eager to speak with Shu Yu alone, as she had many questions she wanted to ask her.

So she did not refuse and immediately stood up.

Lu Sanzhu couldn’t hold back and went up to Uncle Meng to ask, “Second Brother Meng, I have a question.”

“What is it?”

“We heard when we entered the city that there’s a county magistrate living in the Meng family’s escort agency? Why didn’t we see them just now?”

At these words, Shu Yu, Uncle Meng, Ms. Tao, Meng Han, and the others all stared at him with expressions that were… complicated.

Lu Sanzhu was startled by their looks, and said with some concern, “Why, does the county magistrate put on such airs? Let me tell you, I have met a county magistrate before. Back then, that county magistrate came to our house to give Yu trouble, just to show off their status. The county magistrate living at your place, although I haven’t met them, but…”

Shu Yu coughed heavily, “Third Uncle.”

“Let me finish first.”

“Third Uncle, I am the county magistrate you’re talking about.”

“I know you are…” Lu Sanzhu was stunned, and suddenly turned his head, “You, what did you just say?”

Not only him, but the old lady and the others also widened their eyes and looked at her.

The many gazes made Shu Yu feel a bit embarrassed. She pressed her lips together and smiled, “I am Wen’an County Lord. I just received the Imperial Decree on New Year’s Day. I was specially commended by the Emperor for assisting the Imperial Guard in quelling a rebellion in Chenggu County.”

Everyone gasped sharply, they hadn’t heard about this just now.

Yu actually became a county magistrate???

This is too magical!

The old lady excitedly grabbed her hand, “You, you child, you’re amazing. In such a short time, you’ve gone from a Village Chief to a county magistrate.” She was even worried that, with a bit more effort, Yu might become a princess.

Lu Erbai’s face flushed red, and he clapped his hands together excitedly.

Behind them, Shurui, Erniu, and Dabao jumped up with joy, “We actually have a sister who’s a county magistrate. This is great, just great.”

Only Lu Sanzhu was bewildered for quite a while and then, with disbelief and full of confusion, said, “No, the Wen’an County Lord I heard of is charitable, treats people kindly, speaks gently, and is very generous, you…”

Shu Yu narrowed her eyes and slowly turned to look at him.

Lu Sanzhu swallowed hard, then said very firmly, “Matches you perfectly.”
