Chapter 801 Time Flies
Meng Yunzheng's plan to open an academy and become its dean is still just a plan, and Shu Yu hasn't told her family about it.
But Meng Yunzheng took Da Hu away. He stayed at home to read, and Da Hu also wanted to read, so the two of them had each other's company.
For Da Hu, this was a very rare opportunity.
Therefore, when Shu Yu returned to Zhengdao Village this time, he was accompanied only by the old lady.
Sanya also stayed behind. She wanted to learn medicine from Zhao Xi, and before that, she needed to learn to read more.
Zhao Xi had previously impersonated Da Niu and lived with the old lady in Zhengdao Village because he was worried about the three members of the Lu family—the old and the young. They were new to the area and didn't know anyone. Having a man there could help keep the house in order and also help with some physical labor.
Things are different now. Shu Yu is now living at the Lu family's house and is also the manager of the estate, so she has plenty of time to spend at home.
The old lady had become familiar with all the neighbors, and she was not someone to be trifled with.
Zhao Xi wasn't really a big shot, and it wouldn't be convenient for him to continue living in the village.
He stayed in the county town to teach Sanya medicine. Most importantly, he looked after Daya.
The young head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) of Huifeng镖局 (escort agency) actually visited the Lu family during the New Year. His eyes were always on Da Ya, which made Lu feel a sense of crisis.
Shu Yu resumed going to work on time every day. Occasionally, during her breaks, she would take the old lady for a walk at the foot of the mountain. She lived a rather leisurely life.
As the weather gradually warmed up, Shu Yu's sunflowers finally began to grow vigorously.
Shuyu was very happy and went to see it every day.
In February, the county magistrate of Heichang County, who had been absent for a long time, finally took office.
The newly appointed county magistrate is young and has no connections; otherwise, he wouldn't have been transferred to the southwest.
Therefore, after he arrived and learned of Qi Chan's identity, he treated him with exceptional respect.
Originally, with the arrival of the new magistrate, Qi Chan should have retired after achieving his goal. However, the magistrate sincerely asked Qi Chan to stay a while longer and give him some pointers, citing his lack of experience as a newcomer.
Qi Chan had been managing Heichang County for several months and didn't want the order he had painstakingly restored to fall apart again so soon. Furthermore, the new county magistrate was a good person, clearly eager to make a name for himself, so he stayed.
The governor did send people twice, wanting to invite him back.
The new magistrate wasn't the only one who wanted to build a good relationship with Qi Chan. Seeing that Qi Chan was very likely to return to the capital soon, the governor didn't want to miss the opportunity to spend time with him.
Shu Yu only heard a little about the changes in the county town before continuing with her own business.
After the new county magistrate settled down, he visited Zhengdao Village once. Seeing that everything was fine, he praised all the stewards in the village with satisfaction, and gave special praise to Shu Yu, who had arranged the roster neatly and made a table.
Shu Yu remained calm, while Wang Changdong and the others were very excited.
Making a good impression on the newly arrived magistrate is of course of paramount importance.
In March, Qi Chan was eventually taken away by the people sent by Lord Cheng.
However, no imperial decree has yet been issued from the capital regarding the fever packs.
Last time, it only took Yao Tianqin two months to be reinstated, but it's been almost three months for her now, so why is there still no progress?
As the weather gets hotter, the effectiveness of her heating pack will be reduced.
Even though Shu Yu was very confident in herself, she couldn't help but worry that something unexpected might have happened.
