Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1960: Chapter 1960: Gan Rui’s Thoughts

However, possibly due to the imminent arrival of the new magistrate, Meng Yunzheng became even busier in the following days.

Shu Yu was filled with resentment towards Qi Lie.

The comforting thing was that the business at Lu’s Shop was going well.

Aside from the opening day, the bustling business lasted for four or five days, and then it stabilized. Even so, the daily turnover was quite impressive.

Jiang Fengshou had already started pondering the preliminary plans for the Dragon Boat Festival.

Shu Yu felt quite relieved seeing this, but her relief dissipated when she saw Gan Rui stepping into Lu’s once again.

She was very troubled now, as Gan Rui had been visiting for four or five consecutive days.

The second day, he brought some pastries, claiming they were for Jiang Fengshou’s son. He said he really liked the Jiang family boy, and enjoyed their previous chat immensely, so he brought some gifts for his little friend.

Great, the reason was quite reasonable.

On the third day, he said he had arranged with the Jiang family boy to come over and teach him the skill of tossing melon seeds into the mouth. Although the other party was a child, he was honest and trustworthy, and could not break the promise.

Madam Xue felt this was not feasible, as this place was the shop’s backyard, not their home, so how could it be used for entertaining guests every day?

So, on the fourth day, she left her children at home and did not bring them over.

However, Gan Rui still came, saying he was nearby buying things and saw Shu Yu, so he came over to say hello.

Shu Yu chuckled twice.

What troubled her even more was that every time Gan Rui came, Meng Han would suddenly appear from some corner as if she were a cat smelling fish, and then she would stare… at Gan Rui, with a look of strict vigilance.

If she saw Shu Yu around, she would push Shu Yu into the house and continue to stare at him herself.

Gan Rui, however, was very pleased but also quite restrained, his movements somewhat stiff in front of Meng Han.

Meng Han turned back and told Shu Yu that Gan Rui must be feeling guilty.

Shu Yu, “…”

She was not a fool; even if she were slow, she could see Gan Rui’s intentions.

This boy probably had his eyes on their family’s girl.

Shu Yu’s current impression of Gan Rui was fairly good; he was enthusiastic, kind-hearted, loyal, had a good nature, and came from a well-off family background.

Though sometimes a bit foolish, he was a Scholar, and had genuine talent and learning.

Meng Han was fourteen this year, and Ms. Tao was indeed looking for a suitable match for her. She was growing up, and next year she would have her Coming-of-age ceremony, which is the right age to start preparing for a marriage.

Shu Yu was the Meng family’s future daughter-in-law; no matter how good their relationship, it was inappropriate for her to interfere in her future sister-in-law’s marriage.

But she was genuinely concerned about Meng Han. If there was a suitable match, she certainly hoped Meng Han would have a good future partner.

Especially since Ms. Tao’s connections were limited, and her insights were limited. This time, when Shu Yu returned to the Meng family to honor ancestors, she overheard that many people, attracted by the Meng family’s imperial plaque, were planning to propose marriage.

Ms. Tao was overwhelmed with choices, feeling that several favored options had decent family backgrounds, but she was unsure about their personalities.

Now her temperament has changed, and she discusses such matters with Uncle Meng and consults Meng Han’s opinions. Otherwise, with her former temperament, she might have already chosen.

From Shu Yu’s perspective, Ms. Tao’s favored choices really did not compare to Gan Rui and the Gan Family.

Shu Yu thought, although Meng Han seemed unaware now, who knows when she might suddenly blossom. She had to understand thoroughly about the Gan family before that, to be mentally prepared.
