Chapter 1867 Arrival at the Pan Family
Lu Sanzhu felt that his niece was not very bright and did not understand the psychology of ordinary people like them at all.
He clapped his hands and spoke with certainty.
"Of course, it's to show off that your great-aunt has a powerful backer, to let Chen Bing know that with wealthy relatives like us, your great-aunt is destined for a good life. People like us are someone he could never climb the social ladder in his entire life. It'll make him regret it, regret it to the core, and regret his past actions. It'll be a blow to his soul, you understand?"
Shu Yu suddenly realized, "It's about going to Versailles to show off, huh? I get it."
The old lady who had just come out clapped her hands hard when she heard this. "Third brother is right. Even if you don't have money, you have to act like you do. Chen Bing cares about money the most."
Shu Yu: "..." Whatever makes you happy.
Lu Sanzhu was satisfied, but when he turned around and saw that his second brother and two nephews were also dressed casually, he felt a real headache coming on. Sure enough, he was the one who had to hold this family together.
He coughed lightly and began to give orders, "You all, go and change your clothes, change into nice, expensive clothes, clothes that make you look like rich young masters."
Shu Rui and Er Niu exchanged a glance, then obediently went back to their room.
But Lu Erbai looked quite troubled.
Lu Sanzhu walked to his side, frowned and said, "Second brother, you should go and change quickly. Let me tell you, the two of us are the most important. We are Aunt's nephews and nieces, the closest to her. We have to go and make her proud."
Lu Erbai agreed with this point, but he really didn't have the kind of clothes that Lu Sanzhu wore...like those of a rich young master.
He deals with wood all the time, and soon he's covered in sawdust, so he wears whatever is comfortable and cheap.
Of course, he also had a few nice outfits, but those were all made of good materials and had classic styles. To put it bluntly, they were the understated luxury type, which didn't match Lu Sanzhu's desire to make a scene.
Lu Sanzhu sighed deeply and instructed Ying Xi, "Buy it. Go to the nearest clothing store immediately and buy your master the most expensive outfit."
Ying Xi looked at Lu Erbai, who hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Shu Yu resisted the urge to roll her eyes and said to Ying Xi, "Just buy an outfit like the one Master Yang wore last time." Good quality and a crisp look are enough.
Yingxi left, and the old lady also pulled Grandma Fang back to her room.
She has quite a few nice clothes now, and she brought several sets with her on this trip. Now she and Grandma Fang each have one set.
When everyone stood in the courtyard looking completely refreshed, they really did resemble the masters, mistresses, and young masters of a wealthy family.
Shu Yu didn't change her clothes; she was still dressed the same as before. But her imposing aura made her someone to be respected, even in ordinary clothes.
Yingxi took the cloak and draped it over her shoulders. With a gentle shake, she became the center of attention as she stood there.
Lu Sanzhu stared wide-eyed. How could he not have thought of that? He should have found a cloak to wear. What a blunder.
However, time did not allow him to buy any more. Shu Yu and his party boarded the carriage and headed straight for Shili Lane.
The Changjin Mansion was somewhat quieter than when Shu Yu had last visited. Perhaps it wasn't the time for the provincial examinations, or perhaps it had just experienced chaos; in any case, the carriage journey was smooth.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the carriage arrived at the Pan family's residence in Shili Lane, west of the city.
