Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio     Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When the members of the Lu family saw this, they immediately became nervous.

After all, they were just commoners. How could they not be worried when they saw the soldiers interfering?

Lu Erbai hurriedly wanted to go forward, but his legs weren’t very agile. After taking two steps, he was stopped by Shu Yu.

“Dad, I’ll go take a look.”

Lu Erbai still walked forward worriedly with the help of Lu Dasong after Shu Yu walked into the crowd.

The crowd had automatically parted to make a path. Boss Lue was still lying in the arms of the shop assistant, and his expression was indeed quite ugly.

The leading soldier asked, “What exactly was going on?

When the shop assistant saw the officer asking, he could not help but tremble.

He did not know where to start.

However, the crowd around them had already started to tell the whole story.

Some even pointed at Lu Shuyu, who had walked over.

The two soldiers frowned and looked at each other. The soldier in the lead suddenly raised his hand, “Wait a minute. Your chatter is giving me a headache. I can’t understand.”

After saying that, he pointed at the shop assistant and said, ‘You, tell us what has happened. Others, don’t interrupt.”

The shop assistant was stunned. He could feel his Boss who has lying on the ground quietly tugging his clothes. He immediately took a deep breath and mustered his courage to speak.

Unexpectedly, just as he opened his mouth, the soldier said, “Wait. I still have something to do. We’ll talk after we’re done.”

The shop assistant almost choked on his words, and his face was red.

However, he could not say anything. He could only nod resentfully.

Then, the soldier raised his head and look around the crowd. He asked, “Is the boss of Yiren Pavilion’s ready-to-wear shop on Ningshui Street around?”

“Yes, yes,” Lu Erbai walked forward. He shielded Shu Yu behind him while he faced the two soldiers.

Shu Yu looked at her father helplessly. He could barely stand on his crutches, but he gave off an exceptionally tall feeling.

In the end, she didn’t say anything and didn’t go forward. She just looked at the two soldiers.

The soldier standing at the back took a step forward and sized up Lu Erbai. He then smiled, “You’re Boss Lu? Our Lord heard that today is the opening day of the Lu family’s shop, so he sent us to send you a congratulatory gift. The Lord has just arrived at Jiangyuan County and is busy with matters, so he asked us to make a trip.”

Lu Erbai, who had already prepared himself for the worst, was stunned when he heard this.

The other members of the Lu family and the onlookers were also dumbfounded.

What did they hear? Were the two soldiers here to send gifts to the Lu family?

The new temporary county magistrate, Lord Xiang, was related to the Lu family?

The soldier was still holding the gift box in his hand. Seeing Lu Erbai’s stunned expression, he couldn’t help but hand it over, “Boss Lu? Take it.”

“What? Oh, oh,” Lu Erbai snapped back to his senses and reached out to take the gift box.

Different from the big and heavy gift box that Boss Lue had sent over, the current gift box was quite small and light, but its significance could not be underestimated.

Lu Erbai secretly took a deep breath. Although he didn’t quite understand what was going on, he guessed that it had something to do with Shu Yu. Today, apart from Doctor Xu, those who came to congratulate the opening of the shop were people only Shu Yu knew.

Therefore, after he accepted the gift box, he smiled and said to the two soldiers, “Thank you for your kindness. The two officials must have gone out of their way to make this trip. Do come in and have a cup of tea..”
