Chapter 1832 Observing Words and Expressions: Lu Sanzhu
The crowd chuckled, noting that Lu Sanzhu's ability to be flexible and adaptable was becoming increasingly adept.
Shu Yu suddenly realized, "So I have so many good qualities in my third uncle's heart."
Lu Sanzhu nodded emphatically, "That's right, you're the most capable person in our family. You have so many good qualities, no one can compare to you. Right, Mother, Second Brother?"
He still needed to find allies; if there weren't outsiders present, the old lady would have rolled her eyes without regard for her image.
Lu Erbai, however, gave him face and nodded in agreement, "Yes!" He was still very excited, knowing that Shu Yu was the county princess, and a sense of pride welled up within him, causing him to raise his head even higher.
He was proud of his daughter's talent.
He was even happier to know that she hadn't been bullied or oppressed by others as Lu Sanzhu had guessed.
Uncle Meng laughed heartily, "Shuyu is naturally a good kid. You don't know, I was in a dangerous situation before, and I almost lost my life. If it weren't for Shuyu and Yunzheng coming to save me, I might..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tao bumped into him.
Uncle Meng looked at his wife with a puzzled expression, and she chuckled dryly, "Let's not talk about this anymore, let your in-laws go back to their room and rest first."
Honestly, what's the point of saying these things? Aren't you just making Lu's family worry for no reason?
Tao admitted that he wasn't very smart, but he was still more meticulous than the stubborn Uncle Meng.
Sure enough, Uncle Meng's words made the old lady and Lu Erbai's expressions change slightly. In danger? Even Uncle Meng, a skilled head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) of the镖局 (bodyguard/escort agency), almost lost his life. Obviously, his situation was extremely bad. How could A Yu and Yun Zheng, who went to rescue him, have an easy time?
The two were a little worried, but now was not the time to talk. They parted ways with the Meng family and followed Shu Yu to the guest room.
However, along the way, the old lady couldn't help but scrutinize Shuyu, as if she were worried that Shuyu was injured or in pain somewhere.
Shu Yu patiently explained, "I'm fine. My uncle exaggerated the matter to express his gratitude, but it's not that serious."
"You're trying to fool me. If it weren't that serious, why would the Emperor bestow the title of County Princess upon you?" The old lady wasn't so easily fooled. After all, she was a County Princess. At first, she was indeed excited when she heard that A-Yu was a County Princess.
But looking back now, if she hadn't made such a great contribution, how could she have become the county magistrate?
To enjoy a certain kind of glory, you must pay a certain price.
The old lady understood this simple principle.
Lu Sanzhu, who had been watching them closely, waved her hand and said, “Mother, you’re worrying too much. Ayu was made a county princess, which must have been done with her brains. Last time she was made a township lady, she didn’t encounter any danger, did she? I think Ayu is fine except for being a little tired.”
Very good, Shu Yu secretly gave Lu Sanzhu a thumbs up.
It seems that after so much experience and being in charge for so long, Uncle San's ability to read people and situations has become even more exceptional, in addition to his imagination.
"Yes, Grandma, Uncle San is right. When we went to rescue Uncle, we relied on a plan. I didn't even lose a single hair. I'll tell you about it later."
As she spoke, she gave Lu Sanzhu a wink.
The latter immediately understood and changed the subject, "By the way, Ayu, I'm still very curious. People outside say you have a kind heart, comforting people and treating them to meals. What's going on?"
