Chapter 720 Aunt Xue Gets Beaten Again
Shu Yu was surprised. "Cheng Xian, are you such a talkative person?"
Sung-hyun's message has been delivered, and it's all good news.
He needed to rush back to the county town and couldn't stay any longer, so he prepared to take his leave after saying that.
Shu Yu saw him to the door, and when she returned, the whole bowl of snails had been eaten.
Wang Changdong moved closer to her and chuckled, "Miss Lu, you seem to be in a good mood."
His guess was right; Miss Lu was indeed a blessed person. Look at them all, who else among them would be so highly regarded by the governor? They've all left, yet when something happens, he still sends his trusted confidant to find her.
It was definitely the right thing to do to get along well with her.
Shu Yu was in a good mood, and she maintained this good mood until the next morning. When she saw Aunt Xue, who had come to register, with a bruised and swollen face, she was even happier.
I don't know what happened to her this time, she looks really miserable.
But she didn't ask any more questions, she just glanced at her a couple more times.
With just those two glances, someone came over and explained the situation to her.
The person talking to Shu Yu was from a family living next door to the Shu family. The Shu family had lived there for quite a while and would occasionally make some noise. The house on the left shared the same wall with their yard, so there was almost no soundproofing.
If anything happens to the Shu family, they can hear it if they raise their voices even slightly.
So they were the first to know that Shu Yu had a bad relationship with the Shu family. However, they didn't have much interaction with Shu Yu, so they just treated the arguments and conflicts in the Shu family as a pastime after their hard work.
However, Shu Yu has now become the manager of the estate, and they were worried about how to build a good relationship with her. When they saw that she was quite concerned about Aunt Xue's injury, they immediately whispered to her.
"Her injury was caused by the second master of the Shu family. Steward Lu, you don't know, the day the men of the Shu family came, Xue was at home recuperating from her injury, so the women hadn't returned yet. She described Hou and your sixth sister as wicked people, which led to the second master beating Hou and kicking them out as soon as Hou and her daughter returned."
"Now the Shu family regrets it, but they can't find the person who left. So they've put all the blame on Xue. They complain that Xue misled them, that she had malicious intentions and sowed discord, saying it's all her fault. Just yesterday, someone said that your family seems to have cooked something delicious, and the aroma is incredible whenever you pass by your house."
"After the Shu family members got home, they were eating bran and chaff, and they were in a bad mood. They suddenly got angry. The second son of the Shu family had a particularly bad temper. He grabbed a stool and smashed it on Xue's head. Tsk, there was blood on the spot."
Actually, there was something else she didn't mention: the Shu family also blamed Xue for buying Lu Shuyu back, which made them have to put up with Shuyu's temper and have to behave themselves in front of her.
Even more so, because Shu Yu became the manager, Shu Feng and Shu Quan could no longer find another job hunting in the mountains.
If they can get into the mountains, the Shu family will be able to eat meat.
So, in the end, it's all Aunt Xue's fault.
Shu Yu wanted to laugh when she heard this, "It's really... dogs fighting."
After that, whenever she was doing well, whenever she had any happy news, would the Shu family suffer a shock?
Now they're blaming Aunt Xue for their mistakes. Once Aunt Xue is tortured to death by them, who will be next?
