Chapter 803: Proposing Marriage to Ah Yu
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Wang Wulang rode his horse and quickly returned to Jiangsai City. The soldiers guarding the city greeted him in high spirits.
Wang Wulang: “Where is Village Lord Yu?”
The city guard replied, “She should be in the east field.”
Jiangsai was now divided into four areas: north, south, east, and west. The east was mainly filled with fields after the land was reclaimed.
Wang Wulang dismounted from his horse and casually threw the reins to the deputy general at the side before walking quickly towards the east. On the way, if he encountered some people who recognized him, they would politely call him “Little General Wang.” Wang Wulang couldn’t be bothered to respond. He only nodded slightly and left in a hurry.
When he arrived at the East Field, he immediately saw All Yu—she was too conspicuous surrounded by the crowd.
Zhong Tian, who had transformed from the system, was standing respectfully at the side. He looked like an ordinary old farmer, but his eyes were less honest and his expression was wooden. He couldn’t be sad or happy.
Ah Yu was surrounded by a real farmer asking questions when she suddenly heard Meatbail say to her in the spatial pocket, “Your Fifth Brother is here.”
Ah Yu said to the farmer, “Uncle, ask Zhong Tian more about these things. He knows better than me.”
With that, she crawled out of the crowd and came in front of Wang Wulang.
“All Yu!” Wang Wulang’s eyes lit up. He sized up All Yu from head to toe and heaved a sigh of relief. “That was close. You didn’t lose much weight or become haggard. My butt is saved.”
Otherwise, if his Grandma or mother found out, he would probably be beaten up.
“Fifth Brother.” All Yu also sized up Wang Wulang and curled her lips. “Why have you darkened so much? You’re almost as dark as a dust ball.”
Wang Wulang: “…Your brother is leading the army to war, not to travel around. This is called masculinity, do you understand?”
“Yes, yes, yes.” Ah Yu nodded perfunctorily. She thought to herself that her eldest brother was also traveling around, but he still looked like a scholar. He was not very dark, but Fifth Brother was very dark.
The siblings didn’t really care and chatted for a while. Wang Wulang had long known that Ah Yu had gone to Yue City. However, when he saw her, he couldn’t help but ask more.
Ah Yu liked to talk to begin with. Now that she had met Wang Wulang, she told him everything.
When he heard that she had obtained the Myriad People Umbrella before she left, Wang Wulang gasped.
He was no longer the Wang Wulang from before and knew many things, including the importance of the Myriad People Umbrella.
“I thought that being promoted to a little general in just a few months was already very impressive. I didn’t expect you to actually obtain a Myriad People Umbrella from disaster relief. 1 wonder if the disaster relief inspector sent by the Imperial Court will be dissatisfied.” In the past, Wang Wulang didn’t care about these twists and turns, but now that he had decided to make a contribution, he naturally knew a lot.
Ah Yu shook her head. “The governor sent by the Imperial Court is from Big Brother Ah You’s family. He’s very easy to talk to. Later on, on the way back, 1 even received a letter specially sent by him to remind me. He’s a good official.” If not for the fact that the Imperial Inspector was really talented, they would not have been able to progress so smoothly in Yue City.
Since ancient times, it was not a good job for officials to be assigned for disaster relief. It was inevitable that all sides would be obstructed. They could be considered to have received the protection of the heavens and earth to be able to do everything so smoothly.
Ah Yu was young and had encountered many things. Moreover, there was Meatbail collecting information everywhere and organizing it into a tutorial for her. How could she not grow up?
However, she was happy to be an innocent child and give everyone room to dote on her.
The siblings returned to the Protectorate General’s Residence together. After resting for a few days, they heard someone report that the eight tribes had sent someone to send a letter.
Before Ah Yu could react to what the eight leaders were saying, she saw Wang Wulang cough unnaturally.
Ah Yu: “Fifth Brother, did you catch a cold? Why are you coughing so badly?”
An insider at the side smiled and said, “Village Lord, you might not know this, but in the past, Miss Shui Miao had already completely led the eight tribes with the help of Little General Wang and became the leader of the eight tribes. The reason why our Jiangsai can have our current appearance is because of Lord Shui Miao’s contribution.”
There was actually such a thing. Before Ah Yu could ask in detail, she heard footsteps outside. It was a group of people carrying large boxes to the Protectorate General’s Residence.
The governor was also a strange person. He was the one who let these people carrying the boxes in. Seeing that Ah Yu was already resting in the inner hall, he specially explained to her, “Village Lord Yu, what a coincidence. 1 just met Lord Shui Miao’s subordinates outside. They said that they’re here to propose marriage.”
Wang Wulang spat out a mouthful of tea. “What? Propose marriage to who? My Ah Yu is engaged!”
He slammed the table, his face red with anger. The knife at his waist was pulled out.
The governor was not flustered and continued, “Little General Wang, don’t be anxious. It’s not a marriage proposal for Village Lord Yu. It’s Lord Shui Miao who asked Village Lord Yu to make the decision on your marriage.”
This time, it was Ah Yu’s turn to spit out the tea.
“…I’m sorry.”
She really couldn’t hold it in..
