Shu Jiaying knew that Village Chief Xu wasn't such a mean person, but in the eyes of a child, it's easy to tell right from wrong. She didn't want Xiaohua to misunderstand Village Chief Xu, so she explained, "No, how could Uncle Xu be angry with the two of us? I think he's too busy to come see us. I think he'll definitely come see Xiaohua when he's free in a couple of days."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, Xiaohua...Brother Chen fell asleep in the room. Can you do me a favor?"
Xiaohua was very surprised why the "Young Master Yu" she had previously called had now become "Brother Chen"?
Thinking that the relationship between Shu Jiaying and Yu Chenfeng might have taken a step forward, Xiaohua smiled and said, "Sister Jiaying, just tell me what you want. As long as Xiaohua can do it, Xiaohua will definitely complete the task successfully."
"Well done, Xiaohua. Actually, the task that I assigned to you is very simple. I have to go out for a while, but before I come back, can you please keep an eye on Brother Chen for me?"
This was indeed a trivial matter. Xiaohua nodded and agreed, "It's no problem, Sister Jiaying, don't worry. I will definitely help you take good care of Master Yu... No, Brother Chen."
"Little brat, you're so smart!"
She patted Xiaohua's head lovingly, explained the situation to her, and then left Xiaohua's room.
As they walked through the village, Shu Zhenmeng came across them and hurriedly greeted Shu Jiaying. She said, "Oh, sister, it's been a long time since we last met. Haven't you been working as a cook in the back mountains recently? How did you find time to come to the village?"
Shu Jiaying didn't want to have too much contact with Old Man Shu and his family. She gave Shu Zhenmeng a cold look and then said expressionlessly, "Sorry, I have other things to take care of."
"Hey... why are you in such a hurry? Actually, I called you, do you think I really have nothing to do? I called you because I have something important to tell you."
"Important things? Are you talking about your father and your brother?"
Shu Zhenmeng immediately waved her hand. She smiled mysteriously and said, "I asked you for help with this matter, but you didn't even want to help me. How dare you say that? Actually, this isn't the matter I want to talk to you about. I'm talking about something else."
Shu Jiaying was getting impatient. She glanced at the dark clouds drifting across the sky. It looked like it might rain soon. She said rudely, "Just tell me what you want to say. I don't have time to waste here with you."
Shu Zhenmeng rolled her eyes at Shu Jiaying and said excitedly, "Sister, do you know my background?"
"have no idea."
"Sister, my true identity is the general's daughter. My current mother is my adoptive mother. My biological father came to our house and found me a few days ago. I think it won't be long before I leave Guangming Village and live in the capital permanently. Although our sisterly relationship isn't very good, sister... if I go to the capital, I will definitely miss you."
Shu Zhenmeng spoke about something that hadn't even been decided yet as if it were true. However, regardless of whether it was true or not, Shu Jiaying felt that it had nothing to do with her.
She put on a fake smile and said, "Congratulations, General's daughter. I have other things to do, so I have to leave first."
"Why are you leaving so quickly? Now I am worthy of Master Kang, so I want you to tell Master Kang that I will treat him to dinner tonight and ask him to come to my house. This is very important for his future."
