Chapter 2264: Zhao Xi's Opportunity for Education
Meng Yunzheng raised his head, looking at Zhao Xi on the wall, and smiled, "Ask your question."
Zhao Xi inexplicably shivered, feeling that he would surely be held accountable after this marriage.
Well, he could deal with the consequences later. For now, he'd enjoy the moment.
He deliberately avoided making eye contac...
Chapter 2263: The Grand Wedding
Following this, Li Shi once again appeared at the street stalls near the sunflower field, working diligently to earn money.
Grandma Lu, upon learning this, praised Da Niu, saying, "It's like one devil subduing another. If she causes trouble again in the future, let Da Niu handle her."
Amidst Li Shi's transformation, Shu Yu's wedding day final...
Chapter 2262: Wealthy, Leisurely, and Confident
Upon hearing Shu Yu's words, Grandma Lu clapped her hands together abruptly. "You hit the nail on the head, she's indeed got too much free time. When Cuihua was pregnant with Yuanyuan in the past, Er Niu was still young, and there was plenty of work to be done in the fields. If she could find the time to visit Cuihua, it was already conside...
Chapter 2261: Probably Just Idle
After the dispute with Lai's mother, she decided to leave and returned to town.
With Lai's mother gone, Li Shi stayed on her own. Since Yu Fenglin was worried about his older sister, he offered to take care of Lanhua himself. His blacksmith shop was located at home, so if Lanhua needed anything or didn't feel well, she could call for him from the b...
Chapter 2260: Attending to Both Ends
Without the in-laws around, Lai Jinhai now worked with Lu Erbai, achieving success in his career, and their family conditions had improved. Cuihua was leading a comfortable life, and it was the perfect time for her to have another child.
However, it just wasn't happening, and even Li Shi had asked a few times. She was concerned that there might...
Chapter 2259: Both Sisters Are Pregnant
However, the portraits painted by ordinary artists were far from capturing Meng Yunzheng's lifelike appearance.
Moreover, Wei Shi had been confined to a small courtyard, and the wealthy merchant hadn't seen her for a year, so he couldn't remember her appearance. As for the two "caretakers" who looked after her, they rarely looked at Wei Shi ...
Chapter 2258: The Main Group Returns
With all these matters at hand, Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng no longer paid much attention to them.
The preparations for the wedding were extensive and complicated. Due to Shu Yu's status as the county princess, the government was also keeping an eye on it and had sent a nanny to assist.
Even the Prefect Magistrate Fei,...
Chapter 2257: Academy's Employment Conditions
Watching Shu Yu in her bridal gown, Ruan Shi's eyes couldn't help but redden.
This was her daughter, who had been sold shortly after birth and had been sought after for over a decade before finally being found. Now, she was about to get married, and Ruan Shi was reluctant. If they hadn't been separated for so many years, she would have...
Chapter 2256: The Proud Old Lady
Shu Rui panted heavily, looking at Meng Yunzheng with bright eyes.
"Brother-in-law, I passed the county-level exam," he exclaimed.
Meng Yunzhang smiled and replied, "Yes, I heard about it. Well done."
Excited by his brother-in-law's approval, Shu Rui continued, "But you're even more amazing, Brother-in-law. You achieved top honors in ...
Chapter 2255: The New House of the Meng Family
Since everyone wanted to meet him and learn about the academy, they might as well meet them all at once.
Upon hearing this, the gatekeeper immediately acknowledged and hurried outside to inform those who wanted to inquire.
It was quite late when they returned home without Grandma Lu and others, so the house felt quieter.
Chapter 2254: The First Scholar in the Lu Family
While Grandma Lu was still alive, every member of the Lu family prospered. She witnessed the descendants of the Lu family transition from nothing to prosperity, living a life that the Lu family had never dreamed of.
She also saw the Lu family becoming wealthier and more glorious over the years. She always liked to share these good n...

The convoy rested in Changjin Prefecture for a day before setting off early the next morning, and it continued to expand in size.
This time, it included the entire Meng family, as well as Gan Rui, who was Meng Han's fiancé.
The journey became more lively, but after traveling for two days, Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu separated from the convoy.
<...
Chapter 2252: Tang Wenqian's Choice
In just one day, Meng Yunzheng had a tightly packed schedule.
Shu Yu wasn't idle either. Although she had returned to Chenggu County, Jiang Fengshou wasted no time in handing her a stack of account books to review. She was perplexed, considering she had received these account books just before the New Year. How could there be so many new ones af...
Chapter 2251: Sharing the Good News with Mother
The two children were on the verge of collapsing, but fortunately, not long after, the carriage finally stopped for a break and meal.
Yao Mumu heard the voices coming from outside the Yao family's carriage and quickly climbed out of the carriage, tightly hugging Kang shi's neck.
Kang shi was taken aback and looked at Shu Yu wi...
Chapter 2250: Duped into Limping
"We won!" Yao Mumu excitedly shouted, and Little Huohuo followed suit. The two children looked at Shu Yu with bright eyes.
Yao Mumu said, "I know that the loser has to be punished."
Little Huohuo vigorously nodded, "Punishment!"
"Of course, I accept my punishment," Shu Yu said with a smile.
Yao Mumu tilted his head and pondered...
Chapter 2249: Shu Yu Takes Care of Two Children
Shu Yu looked at the three children and, after explaining, started the game.
"One, two, three, statue. No talking and no moving."
As soon as she finished, she leaned back against the wooden board, closed her eyes, and stayed completely still. Little Huohuo saw this and quickly followed suit, tilting his body and lying down on ...
Chapter 2248: Three Children
Having three children in one carriage made Zhao Xi feel overwhelmed. He couldn't handle it. While Song Le was fine, this little rascal, Yao Mumu, and Little Huohuo sitting together was a dangerous combination, living up to their names—wood meeting fire would definitely lead to combustion.
Zhao Xi couldn't imagine dealing with them all the way, and he...
Chapter 2247: The Yao Family Also Joins
The Hong family turned their heads and indeed saw those two carriages stopping in front of Shu Yu.
Meng Yunzheng and Xiang Weinan stepped forward, bowing to the person who had just gotten down from the carriage. "Lord Wan."
Minister Wan returned the greeting and then helped Hou Shi down from the carriage.
He said to Meng Yunzhe...
Chapter 2246: Recognizing Another Top Scholar
When the three carriages arrived outside the city, Zhao Xi and the others had been waiting for a while.
Hong family members originally thought there wouldn't be too many people, but when they got out of the carriages, they were surprised to find a whole caravan of them.
Little Huohuo was crouching on the ground, talking to a tin...
Chapter 2245: We Accompany Mother Out of the City
Shu Yu truly enjoyed the royal banquet.
Taking advantage of the moments when the emperor and Meng Yunzheng were engrossed in conversation, she discreetly moved most of the dishes into her own bowl.
Occasionally, the emperor would cast a glance at her and notice that Meng Yunzheng, who was multitasking, managed to serve her f...
Chapter 2244: Admiring This Young Lady
Aunt Hong rolled her eyes, "Are you deaf? I said I'm going to Dong'an Prefecture to attend a banquet. Miss Lu and Young Master Meng, the county princess and the top scholar, are getting married, and they've invited me. Besides, I want to broaden my horizons and will be back in a few months. You go to the homes of your second and third sons later, in...
Chapter 2243: The Job for Chen's Kid is Your Doing
Aunt Hong coldly snorted, "Apart from wanting to squeeze some money out of my hands, do you have any other business?"
After saying that, she went straight into the house, ignoring Yu shi.
However, Yucshi was furious and followed her inside. "Mom, don't walk away. I want to ask you, did you introduce that Chen kid to such a ...
Chapter 2242: Request for Meng Yunzheng's Handwritten Inscription
After finishing the portraits, Meng Yunzheng placed Da Zhuang's image aside and created several copies of Wei Shi's image. This way, when they arrived in Hua Jiang Prefecture, they could use these portraits to aid in their search.
As he was about to put away his brushes and paper, Yu shi suddenly spoke up, "Um, coul...
Chapter 2241: Portrait
With the arrangements in place, Meng Yun Zheng spoke to Aunt Hong, "Today, I'd like to paint two portraits, one for Le Le's parents. Firstly, it serves as a keepsake for the child, and secondly, having a portrait makes it easier to find Le Le's mother."
Aunt Hong nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, we can do that."
She glanced around and suggested, "Let's d...
Chapter 2240: Auntie, Come to Dong'an Prefecture with Us
Aunt Hong and Yu shi were both shocked when they heard Meng Yunzheng casually mention his resignation.
"What are you thinking?" Yu shi's voice suddenly rose. "You've just become the top scholar. Why would you give up an official position?"
Yu shi wished she could grab her own hair and knock some sense into Meng Yunzhe...
Chapter 2239: So, You're the County Princess of Wen'an
When Yu shi recognized Meng Yunzheng and exclaimed, it happened simultaneously with Meng Yunzheng's words about leaving the capital tomorrow. Because of this, it took Aunt Hong a moment to process what the two of them meant.
The next moment, she frowned and stared at Yu shi. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
What t...
Chapter 2238: Aren't You the Top Scholar?
Now that everyone was about to leave the capital, it was both reasonable and courteous for Meng Yunzheng to visit the Hong family.
After entering the city, they didn't return home but went directly to the Hong family.
The gate of the Hong family was wide open, and Aunt Hong was scolding someone, specifically her eldest daughter-in-l...
Chapter 2237: Seeing Song Dazhuang
Aunt Hong was genuinely good to her nephew, Song Dazhuang. Judging by the offerings placed in front of the tombstone, someone had visited him about ten days ago.
Apart from Aunt Hong, there was no second option.
Meng Yunzheng held little Song Le's hand and approached, "Kowtow to your father, and if you have anything to say, take your time....
Chapter 2236: Preparing to Leave the Capital
Meng Yunzheng sighed, "Qi Lie has already gone to the southwest. You know the situation there is complex, with various forces at play. The Emperor wants me to go to the southwest to dismantle the last black market. Qi Lie and I share an unspoken understanding, as we participated together in the destruction of the black market in Changjin Prefe...
