Chapter 2256 The Proud Old Lady

Shu Rui took a breath and raised his head to look at Meng Yuncheng's shining eyes.

"Second brother-in-law, I passed the Tongsheng Examination."

Meng Yuncheng smiled and said, "Well, I heard that it was done well."

Shu Rui was very excited when he received the affirmation from his brother-in-law and wife, "But brother-in-law, you are even better. You won six yuan in a row. Now the news has spread throughout the county. From now on, your academy will not have to worry about students at all."

He danced as he spoke, "I've been back to Shangshi Village in the past few days, and many people from the surrounding villages have come to inquire, and some people have given me gifts. I want to study in your academy by then."

Today's Shangshi Village and several surrounding villages are no longer what they used to be.

Since Shu Yu started buying melon seeds, at least more than half of the people in the area have planted sunflowers, and some people have even worked directly in Lu Ji's workshop.

There are also some people who work hard and follow Lu Erbai to work everywhere.

Everyone has money in their hands, and life gradually becomes more comfortable. In addition, one of the prerequisites for Shu Yu's Luji recruitment is to be literate. Such workers also earn high wages and can easily be promoted.

Now that everyone has seen the benefits of reading and literacy, don’t parents with far-sighted ideas just want to send their children to school? It just so happens that the Number One Scholar has come back to open an academy. Maybe under his guidance, his children will be like Shu Rui and become a boy student, or even a scholar, right?

Shu Yu came out of the main room and felt helpless when she heard Shu Rui's words, "So did you go back to the village or didn't you avoid it?"

"Second sister." Shu Rui chuckled. He turned around and saw that the old lady and the others had not approached, so he quickly said, "Although I didn't avoid her, my grandma is very happy. In the past few days, her smile has not fallen from her face. came."

Isn’t the old lady happy about honoring the ancestors?

Those who used to look down on her and mock her three sons behind her back for having no future now have to smile and beg her to do things. She was so proud that she could carry the wind when she walked.

"You are saying bad things about me behind my back again." The old lady's steps were not slow. This time she had already walked behind Shu Rui, raised her hand and hit him on the head.

Shu Rui shrank his neck and hid behind Meng Yunzheng.

The old lady looked at the two people in front of her and was extremely happy, "Okay, just come back. The wedding is in twenty days, so we have to hurry up."

Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng helped her through the door, one on the left and the other on the right.

Ruan walked on the other side of Shu Yu and whispered, "Mother has made your wedding dress for you. Come back to my room later and try it on. If it doesn't fit, it's still too late to change it now."

Shu Yu leaned his head on her shoulder, "Thank you, mother, you are so kind."

Brides from other families have to embroider their wedding dresses themselves. Fortunately, the Lu family didn't let Shu Yu worry at all.

Ruan touched her face and asked, "Have you lost weight?"

"No, I eat well and dress well, how can I lose weight?"

The return of the two of them added a lot of popularity to the Lu family. Everyone had a good chat and didn't go back to their rooms until very late.

Shu Yu went to try on the wedding dress. It fit well and was very beautiful, especially the embroidery on it, which was all embroidered stitch by stitch by Ruan.

In the past, Ruan knew how to make and tailor clothes, but was not proficient in embroidery. Later, she studied with the embroiderer recruited by Yiren Pavilion for a long time. I have to say that Ruan is indeed somewhat talented in this area, and now she can become an embroiderer.
