Chapter 413: Bidding Thirty Wen
As expected, Yuan Laoda was in deep conflict.
Shu Yu turned around and walked away. After a few rounds of negotiations, Yuan Laoda reluctantly bit the bullet and accepted the thirty wen that Shu Yu handed over, giving her the entire box.
Shu Yu didn't want the box, so she took out the small pouch inside, glanced at it casually, and hung it around her waist before leaving.
Yuan Laoda watched his figure disappear and then looked at the thirty wen in his hand, feeling a heartache almost like bleeding.
Why did he believe that there was a treasure in that house? Now, after toiling away for half the night and digging up the courtyard, he only received thirty wen in return.
For the sake of these thirty wen, he severed ties with his fourth brother.
As a result, his fourth brother became a lower-level official in the county government, and he couldn't benefit from it at all.
Yuan Laoda regretted it deeply, his hand holding the copper coins trembling uncontrollably.
Finally, when Shu Yu's figure was completely gone, he turned around dazedly and left the city gate, returning to Daxu Village.
Unlike him, once Shu Yu was out of Yuan Laoda's sight, she excitedly held the pouch in her hand.
She emptied all the seeds from it.
There were so many, enough for her to experiment with slowly.
Feeling in a good mood, Shu Yu sat down at a nearby wonton stall, had a bowl of wontons to satisfy her hunger, and then hurried back to Liufang Lane.
Passing by the Meng family's doorstep, she looked at the iron ring at the gate and noticed that the lock was gone.
She instinctively wanted to go in and take a look, but she saw a few neighbors walking towards Liufang Lane out of the corner of her eye. She stopped her footsteps and went straight home.
In the courtyard, only the old lady and San Ya were there. Liang Shi had already returned home.
Shu Yu placed the sunflower seeds in her room and then walked into the courtyard. As she helped stuff rags, she asked, "Grandmother, when I came back just now, I saw that the Meng family's gate was unlocked. Did they come back?"
Although the old lady mostly stayed at home, she was still well-informed.
She nodded, "Yes, they're back. It's a pity..."
She sighed as she spoke.
Shu Yu's heart suddenly tensed, "What's a pity?"
"It's a pity that the doctor they went to see wasn't of much use. the doctor couldn't cure Zhao Daifu's madness, and Young Master Meng still couldn't speak. I heard they spent quite a bit of money, but in the end, there was no improvement. Why doesn't heaven bless good people?" the old lady lamented.
Upon hearing this, Shu Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
She had thought something had gone wrong when Meng Yunzheng and the others went to pursue Shu Feng, but according to the old lady, it seemed that everything was fine?
That put her mind at ease.
Seeing that the old lady still seemed worried, Shu Yu couldn't help but smile and say, "Grandmother, I believe that Young Master Meng and the other will recover sooner or later. They only saw one doctor, but there are many highly skilled doctors in this world. They will surely find one."
"You're right, we mustn't give up. Later, I'll make some soup and bring it to them as a comfort," the old lady agreed.
Shu Yu nodded, "That's a good idea."
She was now curious about what had happened after Meng Yunzheng and the others chased after Shu Feng. Later in the evening, she wanted to go and take a look, and also inquire about the current situation of the Shu family.
As Shu Yu was contemplating, a knocking sound came from outside.
The old lady was startled, "Who is it?"
"May I ask if Second Young Miss Lu is at home?" a female voice sounded from outside the door.
Shu Yu listened carefully, "This voice sounds a bit familiar."
