The leading officer came over and asked, "How is it?"
"We can only take it back ourselves." Fortunately, the mule and cart they bought were not far away.
The two officers carried the bamboo cage and left.
Once they were gone, the elderly couple, who had seemingly left, cautiously reappeared.
The old man straightened his previously bent back and let out a sigh. "Thank goodness we made it in time. Let's go back to the inn. Mother and the others are still waiting."
These two people were none other than Lu Erbai and Ruan Shi, who had disguised themselves as the elderly couple.
After noon, the Lu family learned that Shu Yu had started acting crazy and foolish, so they hurriedly took a shortcut and arrived at the county town.
Meanwhile, Meng Yunzheng and the others continued to follow behind the exile procession.
Lu Erbai was a carpenter, and making a bamboo cage was quite simple for him.
He specifically chose the best bamboo and the whole family worked together, so they finished it quickly before dusk.
Lu Erbai carefully smoothed each bamboo stick to ensure there were no sharp edges.
Moreover, this wasn't just a simple structure of bamboo poles, but also involved inclined and curved bindings.
He even carved patterns on the bamboo, making it look exquisite. He added a small eave-like structure on top. In any case, it didn't resemble a prisoner's cage at all.
The officers had noticed the eave-like structure from the beginning, but they didn't mind since they weren't really making a prisoner's carriage. However, they only discovered the patterns and curtains on the bamboo after they brought it back. The colors of the curtains blended with the bamboo, making it difficult to see in the dim light.
The officers exchanged glances. If they added a few more decorations and made some improvements, it would look no different from a regular carriage.
They even wanted to ride in it themselves.
The leading officer held the remaining silver and said, "Alright, with this silver, we can have a good meal tomorrow."
The officers immediately became happy and thoroughly searched Shu Yu for any remaining silver. Finally, they felt relieved.
The next morning, the Shu family members gathered in the courtyard, looking dispirited.
They had all squeezed together last night, and it was uncomfortable to sleep.
In contrast, Shu Yu had the entire sleeping mat to herself, with no one grinding their teeth, talking in their sleep, or snoring. There were no unpleasant smells either. She slept soundly, looking refreshed.
The Shu family members gritted their teeth, wishing they could pounce on her and beat her to death.
But little did they know, Shu Yu was even more excited than them. As soon as she saw them, memories seemed to flood her mind, and she rushed towards them menacingly, ready to attack.
"Ah!" The Shu family members screamed in fear and took two steps back.
Fortunately, the officers reacted quickly and immediately grabbed her, then pushed her forward. "Didn't you say you dare not anymore? I think you're truly insane. Come, get in."
He pushed her toward the "prisoner's carriage" and opened the door for her to enter.
Then he locked the door and scolded, "From today onwards, you stay here and behave yourself."
The Shu family members were dumbfounded. A prisoner's carriage? No, this didn't look like a prisoner's carriage at all. It looked more like a mule cart.
The eldest daughter of the Shu family couldn't help but ask, "Is she going to travel to the Southwest in this?"
The officer raised an eyebrow and
looked at her. "What's wrong? You still want her to go with you? Aren't you afraid she'll strangle you to death?"
Shu Yu obediently slapped her hands heavily against the bamboo railing, her eyes glaring at the eldest daughter.
Me laughing the whole chapter 🤣
