Chapter 1039 Ying Dong Loses His Composure

Shu Yu then followed the people to the front yard, where the east side of the main house had already been set up – the east room.

She sat quietly in the east room waiting. Before long, the music started playing outside, and guests began to arrive one after another.

The participants were mostly women, and the number of spectators was not large, only a dozen or so in total.

Besides the Lu family, there were also two elderly women from Shangshi Village who had been brought over the previous night.

And... Zhao Xi and Meng Yunzheng, and Ding Yuehua who arrived early in the morning.

Meng Yunzheng and his companion stood in the corner, almost invisible to others if they weren't paying attention.

Ding Yuehua attended today as Ayu's attendee and assisted Ayu in performing the rites.

From taking their places to the first bow, the second bow, the third bow, the hearing, and finally the completion of the ceremony and the thank-you to the guests, Shu Yu was already covered in sweat after going through this series of procedures.

The main problem is that the current climate is just too hot.

After the ceremony was finally completed, the old lady quickly came over, gave Shuyu a handkerchief, and said in a low voice, "Alright, go back to the backyard and wash up a bit. Look at you, all sweaty. We'll all go outside to greet the guests, so you can cool off before you come out."

"good."

Shu Yu returned to Yu Garden alone. Although it was difficult to take a bath, she still washed herself with cold water and finally felt better.

She had been wearing a lot of clothes underneath, but after taking some off, Shu Yu finally felt relaxed as she walked out of the bathroom.

To her surprise, as soon as she stepped outside, she saw Meng Yunzheng standing outside Yu Garden, waiting for her.

Why did you come here?

Meng Yunzheng smiled and said, "I want to talk to you." After a pause, he said in a low voice, "I'm leaving for the capital this evening."

Shu Yu's smile froze. "So fast?"

"Hmm." So he didn't have much time to talk to her alone today, and could only find opportunities to see her whenever he could.

Shu Yu knew very well what he was about to face in the capital, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. "Is everything prepared in the capital?"

"Don't worry, I'll come back to see you safely. I won't let anything happen to me, I'll make sure everything goes smoothly."

Although he said that, he was facing a ruthless person like Gong Qiu. Shu Yu was afraid that the person would disregard everything and simply perish together with him.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but give a few more words of advice.

Meng Yunzheng listened quietly; at that moment, he just wanted to hear her voice a little longer.

The two talked as they walked toward the front yard.

Meng Yunzheng held a fan in his hand, fanning her while nodding from time to time.

Just as we were about to reach the hanging flower gate, we saw a figure running towards us.

Only when they got closer did they realize it was Ying Dong. Ying Dong was standing behind the hanging flower gate. "Second Miss, over there..."

As he spoke, his gaze naturally fell on Meng Yunzheng, and he was thinking that this person must be the legendary Young Master Meng.

He nodded to the other person and was about to continue speaking.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, as if suddenly remembering something, she abruptly turned her head to look at Meng Yunzheng again, "You, you are Meng Yunzheng?"

He learned from his sister that Zhao Xi's friend, Young Master Meng, was the future second son-in-law, but Ying Xi had never told him his name, only that she called him Young Master Meng.

Now, at their first meeting, Ying Dong completely lost his composure.

Meng Yunzheng was also looking at the person in front of him, and after a moment, a rare look of joy appeared on his face, "Lin Dong??"
