Chapter 1943 Shu Yu's Unexplained Popularity

As soon as the people outside entered, they shouted, "County Princess, congratulations on your grand opening! We heard that you sell very rare sunflower seed instant noodles here, and we all want to buy some."

Shu Yu only vaguely felt that some of these people looked somewhat familiar.

Meng Han whispered in her ear, "They are all ordinary people from Chenggu County."

Shu Yu was taken aback. Another one from Chenggu County?

The people of Chenggu County also set off early in the morning. Unlike Master Yang and his family, they did not have their own carriages, so they all shared a ride. They rushed as fast as they could and finally arrived.

“Princess, we all know you opened a shop in the prefectural city. Why don’t you open one in our Chenggu County? You are gentle, generous, beautiful and intelligent, a rare and unique philanthropist. If you opened one in the county, we would go there to buy from you every day.”

"Yes, yes, with a county princess as kind as her, her shop will surely be packed with customers."

Da Niu walked up to her at some point and asked in a low voice, "What...did you do in Chenggu County?"

Shu Yu glanced at him and said with absolute certainty, "I didn't do anything."

“Your Highness, you are so modest. We all know that you do good deeds without seeking recognition. We all know that you treat us well and often lend us a helping hand.”

"Yes, yes, the county princess is of noble character and acts with humility, we all know that."

Shu Yu: You guys don't know anything! I don't know anything either. Don't make up your own assumptions!

But these people all seemed to understand the situation implicitly and were already buying things very conscientiously.

They weren't really flush with cash to support Shu Yu, so they wouldn't be so extravagant as to splurge on sunflower oil. Sunflower seeds, instant noodles, and sausages were relatively inexpensive; those they could afford would buy more, and those they couldn't would buy less.

Anyway, it's all edible, and they've tasted it; it's really good.

Shu Yu took a deep breath, feeling very agitated. What exactly happened in Chenggu County? Why did it seem like so many legends about her were associated with it?

Meng Han, however, understood. She chuckled and explained to Shu Yu, "Sister Shu Yu, you don't understand. The people of the county town all experienced that riot, and everyone is still shaken. After the rebellion was quelled, the county town was temporarily managed by Lord Xia Yi. But Lord Xia mostly stayed in the county government office, and it was you who went out to help rebuild the county town."

In other words, Shu Yu was out and about a lot, and many people had seen her.

Perhaps because she was a young woman and quite pretty, people weren't as afraid of her compared to the stern-faced, burly soldiers. In fact, people gradually felt at ease when they saw her.

She doesn't need to speak or interact with others; she can simply stand at a distance.

At first, no one knew her. Later, when she was granted the title of county princess, everyone found out.

Later, Shu Yu encountered several people in need of help. She didn't do anything, but some people liked to boast outside. They could connect with people who had nothing to do with Shu Yu and then brag about receiving help from the county magistrate. It turned out that people loved hearing them praise the county magistrate, so these kinds of "extortion" incidents increased, as if everyone considered it an honor to meet and speak with the county magistrate.

Of course, some people think it's too exaggerated and don't believe it.

Then, Chen Bing's incident suddenly occurred, which perfectly solidified Shu Yu's image as a saint who stands up for the people.

After listening, Shu Yu was completely numb. What on earth was all this about?
