Chapter 421 Doctor Xu Visits
Subsequently, the marriage was finalized, and the wedding date was set for the end of the year.
Ms. Deng said with a smile, "I reckon Yuehua should be sending your family an invitation in the next few days."
Shu Yu did the math and realized that she probably wouldn't be able to attend at the end of the year.
"It's a bit rushed."
Madam Deng sighed, "It's not that we're in a rush, it's just that Yuehua is of marriageable age. According to the situation in our Jiangyuan County, Yuehua should have gotten married last year. Originally, the Ding family wanted to become in-laws with our Jiang family, and she almost became my sister-in-law. It was only because the third daughter of the Ding family interfered that the matter was ruined. It's fortunate that it was ruined, otherwise Yuehua's suffering would have been endless."
Shu Yu nodded in agreement. Ding Yuehua was lucky; she had perfectly avoided Jiang Li, that spoiled brat.
Ding Yuerong also reaped what she sowed; she tried to steal her sister's marriage, but unexpectedly, the Jiang family directly called off the engagement.
When Shu Yu last visited, she tried to seduce the three young masters from the neighboring county in the same way. I heard that she is now under strict surveillance by Mrs. Ding and is engaged. However, because she was jilted before and Mrs. Ding dislikes her, the family she found is not well-off, and the wedding is in two months.
Anyway, she could never make it to the Ding family's wedding banquet.
As for Jiang Li, it's said that he's been living a very unhappy life since leaving the Jiang family. Even though his parents secretly helped him, it didn't make much difference. Now that Jiang Ren is the housekeeper, he knows his parents have money and wants to squeeze it dry. How could he allow them to send any more to Jiang Li?
Deng also said that Jiang Li even came to their wine shop, hoping to get some money from them, his second brother and sister-in-law.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yi was utterly disappointed in the Jiang family and gave Jiang Li no kind look, not even a single penny.
Knowing that Jiang Li was having a hard time made Shu Yu feel relieved.
As the two were talking, Deng's makeup was finished.
Shu Yu stood to the side, gesturing for her to look in the bronze mirror. "How is it? Do you like it?"
Ms. Deng restrained her hands from touching her face and nodded repeatedly, "I like it, of course I like it. Mr. Lu's skillful hands are truly amazing."
Shu Yu put the things away, smiled, and took out a set of clothes from behind her. "These are the clothes I picked out for you. Try them on. If they don't fit, we can look at some others."
"Your choice is definitely suitable."
Ms. Deng happily took the clothes into the small cubicle, and when she came out, she looked completely refreshed.
Shu Yu looked her up and down and nodded. "I knew this dress would suit you."
Ms. Deng hummed in agreement, carefully avoiding letting her clothes touch the table beside her.
After looking in the mirror, she said, "I think it's about time, so I'll get ready to go. Thank you for today."
Ms. Deng put on the new clothes, folded her old clothes and put them in her bundle, then left the fitting room.
She paid at the counter and then left the shop.
A mule cart was parked outside the shop, and Jiang Yi was driving it.
He got down and helped Deng Shi up, nodded to Shu Yu and Lu Erbai, then shook the reins and left Yiren Pavilion.
Shu Yu watched their departing figures until the mule cart was out of sight before turning back.
Just as I was about to turn around, I saw a familiar figure coming this way from afar.
Shu Yu paused, and upon closer inspection, realized it was indeed an acquaintance.
She stood at the door without moving, and only asked with a smile when he approached, "Dr. Xu, did you come to see me?"
