Chapter 978 Little Sprout's Fate
After thinking for a moment, Shu Yu finally made a decision: "Then let her go back to the estate. The tenants around the estate are all people she knows, so she won't feel uneasy."
Yes, it's just anxiety. Little Sprout is tense all over right now.
The unfamiliar environment, the unfamiliar future, and the recent passing of her grandfather all put immense pressure on her.
Jiang Kuanyu hesitated, "How can she survive alone..."
“Let her stay at the manor. My brother Da Niu and his wife will move to the manor tomorrow. Although Xiao Ya is young, she can do some small things within her ability, such as feeding the chickens, picking up insects, and occasionally lending a hand to others. She will always have a few meals.”
Little Sprout nodded vigorously, "I, I can do a lot of things." She can wash clothes and cook, and Grandpa often praises her for being capable.
Although Jiang Kuanyu still felt it was inappropriate, there was nothing he could do since Xiaoya refused to leave, so he made the decision.
In the afternoon, the case was closed at the yamen, and Jiang Kuanyu took Old Cui's body back to the village and buried him.
Xiao Ya didn't go; she was still sick and it wasn't suitable for her to travel.
With Tang being sentenced to death, this matter finally came to a complete end.
Jiang Kuanyu returned to the prefectural city, and Da Niu and Zhou Qiao had also packed their things, ambitiously preparing to go to the estate to farm.
Shu Yu gave them one of her mule carts, but this made things very inconvenient for the family as they were now without one.
Shu Yu planned to buy another carriage, but after looking around the market, she couldn't find a suitable one.
Jiangyuan County is still not prosperous enough. The horses sent here are either too old or injured, and have some problems. This is very different from the magnificent and tall horses that Shu Yu had imagined.
She turned around and returned to Yiren Pavilion empty-handed.
No one was home; both the old lady and Shuyou had been working at the shop these past few days.
The Yiren Pavilion is now under the full management of Shu You, who has just taken over and is still getting familiar with the business.
Especially after the shop reopened, many people came after hearing the news, and business suddenly picked up a lot more. The old lady was worried, so she brought Hua Xian to help out here.
When Shu Yu entered the shop, there were still a few customers looking at clothes.
The old lady sat behind the counter and saw Shu Yu return, but her expression didn't seem very happy, so she knew that Shu Yu hadn't come back from her trip.
Didn't get it?
Shu Yu shook her head. "None of them are suitable. I'm thinking of going to the prefectural city in a couple of days to take a look. I'm sure I can find something better there."
The old lady comforted her, "Don't worry, we don't go far, one car is enough."
It's just a little more walking, isn't it? They used to get up early in the morning to travel to the county town, but now they all work in the county town, so what's a few more steps?
Shu Yu knew that the old lady was worried that she was too tired, but taking a car was always more efficient.
"What does Mr. Lu Xiang plan to buy?"
A slightly familiar voice suddenly came from behind her. Shu Yu was startled and turned around to see a smiling girl standing behind her.
I remember now, wasn't this the first business I made after my shop opened?
At that time, Ding Yuehua brought seven or eight young ladies and wives to patronize her business. One of them happened to need makeup, and that was the one in front of us. I think her name was Zhiyou.
Shu Yu smiled and said, "So it's Miss Zhiyou. What an honored guest! Are you here today to buy some clothes? Please come in."
