Chapter 1831: I Am the County Princess of Wen'an

Meng Xiaoshu didn't quite understand why Uncle Lu from the Lu family was so excited. He hesitated and nodded, "Yes, yes, what's the matter?"

"No, nothing." Lu Sanzhu shook his head with great regret, sighed, and suddenly turned serious. "I just feel so regretful. I didn't expect us to come at the wrong time and miss it like this."

The crowd remained silent.

Grandma Lu glared at him, then turned to Meng Xiaoshu and said, "Meng Yunzheng is a capable child. He must have important matters to attend to in the city. When he has time to return, we'll meet again."

Meng Xiaoshu smiled, thinking that the Lu family's old lady was indeed understanding.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Tao Shi came over and said, "You must be tired from your journey. I've already prepared the rooms. Rest for a while and freshen up. Once you're rejuvenated, we can have a welcoming dinner for everyone tonight."

Meng Xiaoshu nodded repeatedly, "Exactly, traveling was exhausting. Let Shu Yu take you to your rooms."

Grandma Lu was indeed tired, and she couldn't wait to have a private conversation with Shu Yu. She had many questions to ask her.

So, she didn't refuse and immediately stood up.

Lu Sanzhu couldn't hold back anymore and walked up to Meng Xiaoshu, asking, "Second Brother Meng, I have a question."

"What is it?"

"When we entered the city just now, someone mentioned that there's a county princess living in the Meng Family Escort? Why didn't I see her just now?"

As he spoke, Shu Yu, Meng Xiaoshu, Tao Shi, Meng Han, and others all looked at him with rather complex expressions.

Lu Sanzhu was taken aback by their gazes and said worriedly, "What's wrong? Is this county princess quite imposing? Let me tell you, I've seen a county princess before. Back then, that county princess even caused trouble at our place for Shu Yu's sake. Tsk tsk, just to show off her status. As for the county princess living in your place, although I haven't seen her, but..."

Shu Yu coughed heavily, "Third Uncle."

"Let me finish."

"Third Uncle, I am the county princess you're talking about."

"I know you are..." Lu Sanzhu was puzzled and suddenly turned his head. "You, you said what just now?"

Not only him, but Grandma Lu and the others also widened their eyes, looking at her.

With so many pairs of eyes on her, Shu Yu felt a bit embarrassed. She pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "I am County Princess of Wen'an. I received the imperial decree on New Year's Day. Because of my contributions in assisting the Imperial Guards in suppressing the rebellion in Chenggu County, the Emperor awarded me a special honor."

The crowd collectively gasped. They hadn't heard about this earlier.

Shu Yu had truly become a princess? This was too surreal!

Grandma Lu grabbed her hand excitedly, "You, you incredible child. In such a short time, you've gone from being a village lord to a county princess." She was worried that if Shu Yu worked even harder, she might end up becoming a princess.

Lu Erbai's face turned red, and he excitedly clapped his hands.

Shu Yu's younger siblings, Shu Rui, Er Niu, Da Bao, and San Niu, jumped up and down in joy. "We actually have a sister who's a county princess now. This is amazing!"

Only Lu Sanzhu's expression remained puzzled for quite a while. Then, he looked utterly perplexed and said, "Wait a minute, the Wen'an County princess I heard about is charitable, kind-hearted, speaks gently, and is very generous. But you..."

Shu Yu narrowed her eyes and turned her head slowly to look at him.

Lu Sanzhu swallowed hard, then spoke resolutely, "You fit the description too well."
