Chapter 316: Goodbye, Xiang Weinan
Chapter 316: Goodbye, Xiang Weinan
The villagers of Daxu Village had arrived for quite a while. Seeing the tired look on Village Chief Chen's face, it seemed that he had encountered several setbacks. Lu Dasong spoke, "We also came to inquire if we could see our fourth sister." Village Chief Chen was taken aback and sensed something, so he asked hurriedly, "Do you have any connections?" "Not exactly connections, but we can give it a try," Lu Dasong replied, looking at Shu Yu beside him. Shu Yu nodded at Village Chief Chen, and they climbed the steps in front of the county yamen and exchanged a few words with the gatekeeper yamen officer. The officer responded and quickly went inside. Village Chief Chen, standing behind, looked at the Lu family in surprise and asked, "Is that girl...?" "She's my niece, the girl from my second brother's family," Village Chief Chen hadn't finished speaking when the villagers behind him suddenly realized, "She's Lu Erbai's second daughter who went missing for many years. I heard she was just found recently." Lu Dasong nodded, "Yes, it's her." Village Chief Chen felt a sense of emotion. He hadn't expected that the newly found daughter of the Lu family would have such connections. Hopefully, she could really gather information because Yuan Shanchuan was a villager of Daxu Village. He was also worried that he might have done something outrageous, which could implicate the whole village. While he was thinking, the gatekeeper yamen officer came out again, showing a friendlier attitude towards Shu Yu. The old lady and the others hurriedly surrounded him, and the officer said, "Miss Lu, please follow me." Village Chief Chen and the others were taken aback. Could they enter the county yamen? Shu Yu held Xiaozhen's hand, Lu Dasong and Da Niu supported the old lady, and they walked inside. Village Chief Chen and the others exchanged glances and quickly followed. After entering the main hall, the officer stopped them and then said to Shu Yu, "The magistrate said he wants to talk to Miss Lu alone. Please wait here, and Miss Lu will come with me." "Thank you. Please lead the way," Shu Yu nodded reassuringly to the old lady and followed the officer into the back room. As soon as she left, Village Chief Chen couldn't help but ask Lu Dasong, "The officer just mentioned 'the magistrate.' Is it the current county magistrate? What is your niece's identity that she can meet the magistrate in person?" Lu Dasong himself didn't know. He looked at the old lady. The old lady had been wearing a serious expression all this time. At this critical moment, she didn't want to say or think about anything, and nervously watched the direction Shu Yu had left. The others were influenced by her state of mind and fell silent. Meanwhile, Shu Yu had already followed the officer to the study in the backyard, and Hu Li was standing at the door. He smiled at Shu Yu, "Miss Lu, please come in." Shu Yu was still grateful for his reminder yesterday, so she thanked him first before entering the room. Xiang Weinan was writing. He looked up when he heard the movement and glanced at her, "Please have a seat." Shu Yu sat opposite him, and Xiang Weinan finished writing the calligraphy before putting down his brush. Leaning back on the chair, he said, "You came to inquire about your relatives?" "Yes." "What do you want to know?" Shu Yu was a little surprised, "Is the magistrate willing to tell me unconditionally?" "How is that possible?" Shu Yu said, "...No need to be so straightforward." Xiang Weinan leaned forward slightly. He had been waiting for her to come on her own initiative after several attempts. This time, Meng Yunzheng couldn't say anything, right?Special thanks to these patrons for their support!!!

Just annoyed at this noble
ReplyDeleteThis guy is creeping me out...
ReplyDeleteThat guy is kind of... weird.
ReplyDeleteWhat's up with this weirdo and trying to NTR that meng guy ?
ReplyDeleteHe might seem a tad too much, yes, but you also seem to be jumping the gun here. Especially with the NTR remark.
DeleteHis reasons has been consistently stated upon wanting to approach the Mc, he wants possible helpful into in bringing down the Shu Family. Given Mc was if not still is a Shu Family Member, can easily see the reason why they are keeping a close eye on her as well. In fact, it would be reasonable for them to be suspicious of her but thus far, they have been quite favorable.
Given how big the case seems to be, uh, yeah. Idk if you lot forgot all about that.
