Chapter 1554: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1554: Zhou Ermei's Marriage Proposal
Shu Yu responded with a sound of agreement, "Prefect Magistrate Fei has already sent people to secretly keep an eye on them. What do we do now?"
Allowing them to continue staying in Dong'an Prefecture would be like having a time bomb ticking.
However, if they were to kill or capture them, the Xiao family in the capital would know that something happened to Hao Dingshan. That would not only affect Dong'an Prefecture and Dongqing Temple but might also raise suspicions about Meng Yunzheng.
"We definitely have to send them back," Meng Yunzheng pondered, "but we shouldn't let them leave empty-handed."
"What do you mean?"
"How about we turn the tables on them?"
Shu Yu smiled, "How do we turn the tables on them?"
"Since the main goal is to keep them from finding out that the Dongqing Temple's master has gone to the capital, we'll maintain the status quo there. As for the reason why Hao Dingshan came here, there's still one more thing. That is me. We can create some commotion, make him think he has discovered something significant, and quickly send him back to the capital. Who knows... it might even cause some trouble for the Xiao family there."
Shu Yu frowned, "But won't that make them focus all their attention on you?"
"That's why we have to plan this carefully. Don't worry, leave Hao Dingshan's problem to me. Your shop is about to open in a few days, and you'll be busy with that. Leave everything else to me."
"But..."
"If I need help, I'll come to you, alright?"
After thinking about it, Shu Yu could only sigh and nod, "Okay, just be careful."
"Got it." With the main matter settled, the drawing was almost dry. Meng Yun Zheng rolled it up and handed it to her, "For the base and pole at the bottom, we'll have to trouble Uncle Lu."
Shu Yu took the drawing, "Alright, then I'll go."
Since it wasn't early, she didn't stay long and hurriedly left with Ying Xi, returning to Fenghuai Street.
As soon as they entered the house, they saw Grandma and Zhou Qiao talking with radiant smiles on their faces, seeming to be in a good mood.
Shu Yu placed the drawing on the table and curiously asked, "Did something good happen?"
Grandma glanced at Zhou Qiao and said, "You tell her."
"My sister and Dazhuang are planning to get engaged," Zhou Qiao couldn't help but laugh. She was obviously very satisfied with this marriage proposal.
Shu Yu was stunned, Dazhuang??
"Didn't you say that you were more fond of Ruan Dalai before? How did it become Dazhuang?"
Zhou Qiao quickly shushed her, "Shu Yu, it's better if only a few of us know about this matter. Don't let it slip out."
Seeing how nervous Zhou Qiao was, Shu Yu couldn't help but laugh, "Of course. It's only natural that you wouldn't reveal anything concerning your younger sister's reputation and future life outside."
Zhou Qiao continued, "Actually, it's a coincidence. Just two days ago, I went back to Shishi Village."
Two days ago was the day after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Shu Yu went to the county office to testify as a witness for Chen Ji's case.
"I returned home not long ago, and my second sister came to find me. She said that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, our family bought some things I used to like and had them delivered to me. She came to sit with me for a while and told me something. She was about to leave when she met Dazhuang, who was also preparing to leave the village."
Dazhuang had returned to the village the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival. He had been working as a casual laborer outside for the past few years and rarely came back for festivals like the Mid-Autumn Festival.
