Chapter 321: Shu Yu’s Worry

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

Shu Yu was surprised and saw the old lady stuff two pieces of silver into her hands.

“Grandmother?”

The old lady said, “Ah Yu, give this to that officer and ask him to help. Give your Fourth Aunt a good meal and take care of her.”

Shu Yu stared blankly at the broken silver in her hand.

Before Shu Yu returned, the old lady only had two or three hundred coins (monetary) in total.

After the shop was opened, the old lady had earned a lot of money. However, she had not taken a single penny apart from the 10 taels (monetary) of silver she had from the government.

She felt she did not need to spend much money on normal days. It was enough as long as there was food and drink at home.

However, her children and grandchildren were very filial. From time to time, Shu Yu would find an excuse to give her some money and ask her to keep it. In the future, when her grandchildren come over, the old lady will buy some snacks and share them with him. The children would be happy too.

Later on, Madam Ruan and Daya also gave her some money, as well as the two taels (monetary) of retirement money that Third Brother gave her a few days ago.

Therefore, the old lady now had five to six taels (monetary) of silver in her hands. She took out half of it and stuffed it all into Shu Yu’s hands.

Shu Yu could not help but laugh. She did not reject it. Only by accepting it could the old lady feel at ease. In any case, he would find an excuse to return it in the future.

However, she had already given Hu Li a few taels (monetary) of silver. She had already explained what the old lady had said.

“Grandmother, don’t worry. I know what to do.”

Shu Yu turned around and said a few words to Hu Li.

The group of people walked to the entrance of the county government office before stopping.

Lu Dasong and the others who were waiting outside immediately came forward to welcome him.

The villagers of Daxu Village asked Village Chief Chen anxiously, “Village

Chief, you saw the Yuan family. Are they alright?””

Village Chief Chen waved his hand. “Don’t stay here. Let’s go back first.”

When they were far away from the county office, Village Chief Chen turned to the old lady Lu and said, “Sister-in-law Lu, we’ll be returning to the village first. Please take care of the Yuan family’s matters. If we have any news, let’s pass it on to each other. We will try our best to find Yuan Shanchuan.”

The old lady nodded, and the two of them quickly parted ways and left.

Only then did Shu Yu and the others walk towards Liufang Alley. Lu Dasong asked about Lu Sixings situation and knew it was nothing serious. He was also not locked up in prison, so he felt much more at ease.

Reputation is still very important these days, especially for women. If they had been in prison, they would already be considered a dirty person in the eyes of many people.

However, Lord Xiang had promised Shu Yu that he would temporarily detain her in the county office and not send her to prison.

The few of them chatted as they returned home.

As soon as the old lady entered the house, she asked about Quanquan’s

condition. The child had already taken his medicine and fallen asleep.

Madam Ruan had been sitting beside the child the entire time, sewing a toy cover while checking on his condition from time to time.

At present, everything seemed to be fine. She didn’t have diarrhea any more, but she didn’t sleep well.

As long as they were fine, it was good. Everyone had been busy for a while and did not even have lunch.

Madam Liang helped them with the noodles. Everyone hurriedly filled their stomachs before they could sit down and rest for a while. They could also quietly discuss things.

The key to the problem was Yuan Shanchuan, but he seemed to have vanished into thin air. No one knew where he had gone.

Shu Yu was not familiar with this place, and the Dasu dynasty did not have surveillance cameras everywhere like in modern times. It was not easy to find someone.

From the looks of it, she could only place her hopes on the government.

What Shu Yu was most worried about was whether Yuan Shanchuan was still alive..
