Chapter 1228: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1228: Ying Dong and Ying Xi Return
Gu Mama put down the carriage curtain, and the carriage driver continued to move forward.
The two horses in front started slowly, as the streets were narrow and crowded, making it easy to collide with others. However, once they turned into Fenghuai Street, the road became wider, and there were fewer pedestrians. The two horses instantly picked up speed and trotted forward.
After a while, they stopped at the entrance of the Lu family's residence.
The riders dismounted and walked briskly towards the house.
The gatekeeper saw them and exclaimed with delight, "Ying Dong, Ying Xi, you're back!"
Ying Dong nodded calmly.
Ying Xi hurriedly ran inside.
In the front courtyard, she saw the old lady watering the flowers on the veranda. Ying Xi quickly approached and stood at attention to greet her.
The Grandma put down the watering can and smiled, "Ying Xi, you're finally back? Did your trip go smoothly?"
"Yes, thank you for your concern, Old Madam."
"That's good. Ah Yu is at home today. Go find her in Yu Garden."
"Yes." Ying Xi nodded repeatedly, turned around, and ran towards the back courtyard.
Shu Yu was contemplating how many people she should recruit once the workshop was built. However, thoughts of Meng Yunzheng came to her mind. It had been a few days, and Meng Yunzheng still hadn't returned. According to the usual schedule, they should have already been back.

Worried that something might have happened to them on the way, Shu Yu sighed and decided not to dwell on it.
She got up and picked up a cloak to put on, planning to go for a walk outside.
However, as she was about to tie the cloak, she heard hurried footsteps outside, followed by Ying Xi's slightly excited voice, "Miss."
Shu Yu was startled and turned around, pleasantly surprised to see Ying Xi entering the room.
"Ying Xi, you're finally back. How did it go? Is everything taken care of?"
"Everything is taken care of." Ying Xi nodded, still a little flustered.
Shu Yu asked her to sit down and pushed a cup of tea towards her.
After taking a sip, Ying Xi said, "My mother's tomb has been moved next to my father's, but my father's relatives initially disagreed. They said my mother had remarried, so there was no reason to be buried next to my father. Fortunately, Young Master Meng returned and helped us plan it, so it was moved."
Knowing that Shu Yu must be curious about Meng Yunzheng's situation, Ying Xi briefly mentioned her own matters and quickly talked about him, "Young Master Meng and his father came back with us. However, Master Meng said it was his first time in Jiangyuan County, and it was also his first time visiting our house. He couldn't come looking disheveled and embarrassed; that wouldn't be proper. So they went back to Lufang Lane to freshen up first. They will come over later. He asked me and my brother to come back and inform you first."
Shu Yu nodded, relieved that they had arrived in Jiangyuan County. She loosened up a bit but soon frowned, "Why did you return so late? According to the schedule, you should have been back a few days ago."
Ying Xi nodded, "Indeed, we should have returned earlier, but on the day we set out, we encountered a few acquaintances."
When she mentioned "acquaintances," Ying Xi couldn't help but glance at Shu Yu, her expression somewhat complicated.
Raising an eyebrow, Shu You asked, "What's the matter? Are these acquaintances related to me?"
