Chapter 1201 Lu's Carpentry Shop
Xiang Weinan's face was grim, but Xiao Shi was clearly pleased to see him. She let go of Shu Yu's hand, walked a few steps to him, and said with a hint of excitement, "Husband, I heard that Lady Lu Xiang has come, so I came to say hello and invite her to sit in the backyard."
When facing her, Xiang Weinan was not as casual and relaxed as he was when facing Shu Yu. He said with a stern face, "No need, she has something to do."
Xiao's smile froze instantly.
Shu Yu felt the atmosphere was really awkward, so she quickly said, "Sister-in-law, I just got home yesterday and I really have a lot of things to do. I just took some time today to deliver something to Master Xiang, and I have to leave soon. Let's do it another day, another day I'll come and talk and have tea with you."
Madam Xiao turned around, her smile forced, "Is that so? Lord Lu is quite a busy man. Then I won't keep you any longer."
These words... made Shu Yu feel a chill run down her spine.
Hey, if you two have a fight, don't drag other people into it.
She glanced at Xiang Weinan again, who nodded. "You can go back now."
"Okay, you two can continue chatting. I'll be going now."
After finishing speaking, Shu Yu quickly walked towards the entrance of the county government office, her figure seemingly disappearing in an instant.
Once she was outside the county government office, she turned back and looked at the mansion in front of her.
It was truly unexpected that Xiang Weinan's wife would travel all the way from the capital to Jiangyuan County.
Shu Yu knew that Xiang Weinan was already married. He was older than Meng Yunzheng. Of course, it was impossible for a young man from a prominent family like him, who was also a talented young man, to be single.
However, he did not bring his wife with him when he came to Jiangyuan County. Xiao Shi had been staying at her family home in the capital, living with her parents.
But Xiang Weinan, a normal man with power and money, would naturally be surrounded by women.
He did bring a concubine with him, but she always stayed quietly in the backyard. Shu Yu came to the county government several times, and each time he had important business to discuss with Xiang Weinan. The meeting place was almost always in the front yard.
Therefore, she had little interaction with that concubine, except for one accidental encounter.
Shu Yu had no intention of getting involved in what happened in Xiang Weinan's backyard.
However, if Xiao Shi stays in Jiangyuan County and she is the village head, they will probably have to interact with each other in the future.
Forget it, I'll ask Zhao Xi later to find out what Xiao's background is.
Shu Yu shook her head and quickened her pace.
After leaving the county government office, she did not return to Fenghuai Street, but instead headed towards another street.
As we walked and searched, we finally stopped in front of a shop that was neither remote nor particularly bustling.
Looking up at the sign above my head—Lu's Carpentry Shop.
Shu Yu couldn't help but laugh; it really was here.
This is the shop that Lu Erbai opened after she went to the capital.
The shop's permanent staff consists of Lu Erbai, Zheng Gongjiang, her brother-in-law Lai Jinhai, and Liang Wangsheng, her father's former partner.
It is said that business in the shop has been very good during this period. After her house was renovated, Lu Sanzhu bought a new house, and then Ding Yuehua's house was renovated. Lu Erbai also renovated the house.
Unlike Shu Yu's housewarming party, Ding Yuehua and Fan Sanshao's housewarming party was much more lively, as their friends were all business associates.
However, after visiting Shu Yu's home, Ding Yuehua insisted on having the same requirements as her.
For example, the bathroom, or a wardrobe that covers an entire wall.
