Chapter 1253 A Letter from Lin Zhang Prefecture

Shu Yu sighed after hearing this.

Seeing this, Meng Yunzheng laughed and said, "My father thinks it's fine. The Meng family has been supported by my uncle all these years. There's no reason for him to take away the fruits of their hard work just because he's back in the Meng family."

Shu Yu nodded, "At least, your uncle is sincere towards you."

Then she thought of something else and frowned, saying, "If Uncle Meng finds a job at the escort agency, then you'll be all alone at home, and you'll still have to study for your exams. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for you to bring Xiao Songle back? Why don't you let him stay at my house? He's used to living there anyway, and he has friends to play with."

Meng Yunzheng shook his head, saying that Song Le was adopted by him and his father.

Although the two families are now engaged, there's no reason to simply hand the person over to the Lu family to raise.

These past few days they've been busy helping Zhao Xi prepare for his wedding, and things haven't settled down yet. It's too chaotic to bring the child over, so they've left him at the Lu family's house for a few more days.

Once they have some free time, they will still take the child back.

He knew Shu Yu's concerns, and he had already considered them. "The child will still have to stay with us, but it may be a few days later. Tomorrow I will go to the prefectural city with Father to buy a house and servants. We will find someone to take care of him. During the day I will study, and if Xiao Song Le gets bored, we can send him to your house to play.

But I still have to come back at night.

Shu Yu, "Go to the prefectural city to buy people?"

Meng Yunzheng nodded and said helplessly, "There are no suitable people in the brokerage firms in the county town, so I need to find a page to accompany me."

Meng Yunzheng's requirements were a bit high. Since he himself intended to take the imperial examinations, the pageboy who followed him should at least be literate.

Such people are hard to find in brokerage firms in county towns.

He used to have a pageboy. When he first returned to the Gong family, Gong Qiu assigned him one who was three years older than him.

But Meng Yunzheng knew that this person was sent by Gong Qiu to his side to monitor him.

Later, after he was tricked into becoming 'mute' by Madam Gong, Meng Yunzheng pretended to be heartbroken and blamed the page for neglecting his duties, taking the opportunity to sell the man.

After that, he and Zhao Xi secretly helped the Fifth Prince with his work.

To be honest, without that pageboy, Meng Yunzheng no longer felt so constrained in his actions.

Shu Yu understood. "Alright then. Since you insist, we'll wait until your servants have bought it before bringing Xiao Song Le back."

Meng Yunzheng nodded and yawned.

Seeing his tired expression, Shu Yu knew that he had indeed been quite tired these past few days and hadn't slept well the night before, so she decided not to stay any longer.

"You should go get some sleep first, I'm going home."

"Sit a little longer, I'm not tired, I want to talk to you some more."

Shu Yu stood up and pushed him towards the room, saying, "There will be plenty of opportunities to talk, you should go to sleep."

She rudely pushed the person through the door and slammed it shut.

Meng Yunzheng, “…” His fiancée seems a bit domineering.

Shu Yu waved through the door, "Then I'm leaving."

"Okay." This time he didn't say anything more.

Shu Yu left the Meng family. She had actually come today to talk about the black market and ask him for advice. But he was too tired, so she decided to talk about it later.

Shu Yu walked to the entrance of Liufang Lane, got into the carriage, and went straight back to the Lu family.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the door, Ying Dong handed me a letter.

"Second Miss, this letter is from the Lin Zhang family."
