When talking about Lord Wan's only son, Madam Hou was calm.
Her words conveyed her satisfaction with her current life, seemingly Lord Wan surpasses Second Master Shu by more than a bit.
Shu Yu laughed, "That's quite good. You living well puts my mind at ease."
"You haven't done bad yourself, you've become a county magistrate. When Lord returned home to tell me this news, I was stunned for a moment. I thought reaching Village Chief was already the peak, and any further progress would be waiting for Young Master Meng to pass the Advanced Scholar exam, and then earn you the title of Imperial Decree; but unexpectedly..."
Madam Hou was truly filled with emotion. It's been just a few years from an exiled criminal to Village Chief, and now county magistrate. Looking at how Young Master Meng is about to become an official, the future for Shu Yu only seems to reach greater heights.
