Shu Yu chuckled and said, "Are you really planning to bring meat to me every day?"
"Why not?" Meng Yunzheng didn't see any problem with it. After all, he could easily climb over the walls of the inn.
After finishing her water, Shu Yu received another porcelain bottle from him.
"What's this?" she asked.
Meng Yunzheng looked down at her wrists and ankles and said, "This is medicine for treating external injuries. Although your shackles and chains are lighter than others', they still rub against your skin over time. If the flesh gets stuck together accidentally, you'll suffer. "
Shu Yu opened the bottle and took a sniff.
Meng Yunzheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, this was specially made by Zhao Xi. It's colorless and odorless, so no one will notice if you apply it. Since you're not familiar with the people from the Shu family, you can even apply it in a corner by yourself..."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "You don't have a place to keep this bottle anyway. It might be better if I bring it to you every night, and you can apply it before going to sleep."
Shu Yu gladly accepted the offer. She had delicate skin, and her wrists were already red from rubbing against the restraints. Her ankles were fine because she had wrapped them with several layers of cloth before leaving the cell. Although it felt a bit hot, it prevented any abrasion.
Shu Yu took a fingerful of the medicine and applied it to her wrists. It felt cool and refreshing, bringing her immediate comfort.
After applying it to both wrists, she handed the bottle back to him and said, "Thank you."
Meng Yunzheng just smiled and said, "Alright, go back and rest. Get some sleep."
Shu Yu fanned herself with her hand and asked, "I don't smell like chicken legs anymore, do I?"
"After being exposed to the wind outside, the smell will be gone," Meng Yunzheng reassured her.
Shu Yu nodded and said, "Then I'll go."
She opened the door and cautiously glanced outside before quietly making her way back to her room.
The cool night breeze felt refreshing.
She took a moment to enjoy the breeze before heading towards her room.
But just as she was about to reach it, she heard a faint sound.
Shu Yu's steps faltered. Who would be awake and lurking around at this hour?
Worried that someone might have seen her entering the room earlier, she decided to investigate. She cautiously approached the source of the sound.
Before she even got close, she heard the familiar sound of chains. So, the person here was also one of the exiled Shu family women?
Shu Yu moved closer, and by the moonlight, she could faintly make out two figures.
Soon, a voice spoke up, "Officer, can't you show some compassion for me?"
Shu Yu shivered silently.
Then another voice followed, with an uncomfortable tone of teasing, "How should I show compassion? Release you?"
"I dare not ask for that, even if you released me, I wouldn't dare to leave. I just want to have a slightly better life on this road of exile. Today, I haven't even eaten enough. Feel my stomach, it's empty."
Shu Yu twitched her lips as she saw the officer take out two large steamed buns. "Fine, I know you've suffered. Here, have this. But remember, these buns aren't free."
"I would never expect anything for free from you, Officer."
Shu Yu clicked her tongue silently. Those
heartless Shu family girls, each one of them trying to offer themselves to the escort officer. And now, the concubine of Shu Family's Second Young Master had found a way to secure her own benefits.
She had also recognized the person. It was Hou, the concubine of Shu Family's Second Young Master.
