Chapter 223: Shu Yu Doesn't Play by the Rules

 Chapter 223: Shu Yu Doesn't Play by the Rules

Shu Yu had asked all the questions she needed to ask, and there were no further leads. She said to the official, "This way, we will have an idea, and later we can ask our relatives and friends for information. If you happen to hear any news about my fourth uncle, please inform the people at Yiren shop. The Lu family will be extremely grateful." "Don't worry, Miss Lu. We will do our best to help find your fourth uncle," replied the official. With those words, Shu Yu truly felt relieved. She handed over two bottles of wine and said, "This is a token of our gratitude. Please accept it." The official repeatedly waved his hands and said, "I can't accept this." "In that case, please take this wine and give it to your superior. My family recently opened a shop, and they sent a gift. I must reciprocate, right?" Indeed, what she said made sense. The official couldn't argue, so Shu Yu took out another bottle of wine from behind and said, "This bottle is for you and the other official. Consider it as compensation for your help. It's only fair, right?" Once again, he had no words to refute. After a moment, he accepted all three bottles of wine. He could bring the wine to his superior first, and if the superior agreed, he could keep it without any problem. "Okay, I'll make another trip and deliver this gift to the superior." "Thank you for your trouble. We won't disturb you any longer. Goodbye." Shu Yu supported the old lady and left the entrance of the county office. The official clicked his tongue and once again sighed, "Miss Lu's young age and her conduct truly put one's heart at ease." He sniffed the wine bottles and the fragrance was strong, making him a little tempted. He picked up the bottles and quickly ran into the county office. Xiang Weinan had just come out of the study when he saw the official approaching with several bottles of wine. He furrowed his brows and called out, "Hu Li, where did this wine come from?" "My lord," Hu Li hurriedly approached, "this wine was sent by Miss Lu." "Miss Lu? Shu Yu? She has come?" "Yes, she just arrived." "Did she come to see me?" Hu Li shook his head and said, ''No, Miss Lu said she came to find me.'' Wei Nan, '...' So you two are quite familiar? Huli didn't hide anything and explained everything clearly, including the two bottles of wine Shu Yu entrusted to him. Wei Nan held the two bottles of wine, feeling particularly complicated. He had actually known about Yuan Shanchuan's matter a long time ago. Because he knew, he didn't take it seriously when he received Meng Yunzheng's warning note. Didn't Meng Yunzheng tell him not to disturb Shu Yu? It's alright, he was waiting for Shu Yu to come to him on her own. He had his plans in mind, but he didn't expect this girl to play by her own rules. If she wanted to find Yuan Shanchuan, shouldn't she approach him, the highest-ranking official in the county, to have a better chance? Instead, she found a errand boy and even sent a few bottles of wine. Haha. Hu Li clearly sensed that his master's expression was off, and he hesitantly asked, "Sir, should we not accept this wine?" Weinan glanced at him and handed back the errand boy's wine, saying, "Keep what's given to you. But let me make it clear in advance, no drinking to interfere with your duties." Huli instantly wore a big smile on his face. "Don't worry, sir." Weinan turned around to leave, but after a few steps, he turned back and instructed, "Pay serious attention to Yuan Shanchuan's matter. Send two people to look for him."
