After a moment, Ruan Shi's legs gave way, and she sat on the ground in a daze, her eyes vacant, her mouth trembling, but no sound came out.
Da Ya's tears fell incessantly as she crouched down to support her, trying to comfort her and herself, "Mother, it's okay. It must be a mistake. It can't be true."
Lu Erbai's silence lasted for a long time. His hand on the table tightened, and his palm began to bleed.
The old lady wiped away her tears and said, "I've thought about it just now. We've only heard about this incident. Let's go back to the village and ask Tang Xiucai in detail about what happened at that time. And what were the reasons behind the exile of those people."
Unable to continue, whenever the old lady mentioned exile, dreadful thoughts would automatically flood her mind.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Lu Erbai shook his head. He took a deep breath, finally releasing his grip and said, "No, we don't need to ask them. Let's go find Xiang Daren. Xiang Daren is the county magistrate, and he must know a lot about such serious matters of exile. Besides, he helped Ah Yu find two female escorts. If something happened to Ah Yu, the female escorts would have returned to report to Xiang Daren."
Ruan Shi seemed to have found hope all of a sudden. Her voice was hoarse and eager as she said, "Yes, Ah Yu had female escorts with her. She wasn't alone. How could she be inexplicably exiled?"
Yes, yes, everyone realized that they needed to find Xiang Weinan. Only County Magistrate could help them now.
They decided to act immediately. The old lady stood up and was about to go to the county government office.
Lu Erbai was worried about her health and initially didn't want her to go. However, he thought it was better to go and find out the truth instead of waiting at home with wild thoughts.
In the end, they left Liang Shi at home to take care of the children, and the rest of them went to the back gate of the county government office.
When the guards at the back gate were informed and went to report to Xiang Weinan, he was bewildered.
What had happened to the Lu family? Why were they coming to the county government office at such a critical time?
Xiang Weinan finished organizing the documents and said to Hu Li, "Go and bring them in."
The Lu family followed Hu Li into the main hall. Xiang Weinan raised his head, ready to ask what had happened, but he saw the old lady leading the group, kneeling down on the ground along with five or six others.
Xiang Weinan furrowed his brows. "What are you doing? Why are you all kneeling? It seems like you've encountered a significant problem."
Lu Erbai took a deep breath and lifted his head. He said, "Daren, this humble one wants to ask you something."
"What is it? Ask."
Lu Erbai turned his head to look at the people in the hall, and Xiang Weinan raised an eyebrow. It seemed they didn't want others to hear.
He waved his hand, asking Hu Li to stay while letting the others leave.
The spacious main hall was now left with only a few of them. Xiang Weinan spoke, "Alright, get up. Let's talk standing."
"Daren, this humble one wants to ask if something has happened to Ah Yu, Ah Yu, has she encountered trouble?"
Xiang Weinan's brows twisted,
"Why would she encounter trouble when she was fine? She only left for a few days. What are you worried about?"
"Then why... why was she exiled to the southwest?"
