Chapter 1171: Unexpectedly the Hou Family
The woman was delighted. "It would be wonderful if we could run into her. Ah Yu would be surprised to know that Xiao Qing and I left Linzhang Prefecture post station."
Master Wan smiled. "Even if you don't meet her, it's alright. Didn't you write her a letter before leaving for Dong'an Prefecture? Once she sees that letter, she'll know. You will meet sooner or later." (But she's not in Dong'an so she haven't read it hehe)
"Yes," the woman's eyes were shining.
If Shu Yu were to meet Master Wan right now, she would be shocked to find out that the woman before him was none other than Hou Shi, who had once been through thick and thin with her and was supposed to stay at the post station with Miss Liu.
Unfortunately, their group had already finished eating and was now on a carriage, leaving the wharf.
They still had plenty of time, so they didn't plan to stay.
Tianning County wasn't far away, and they decided to stay at an inn in the county tonight.
Gouwa got on the carriage and stood by the window, looking outside.
His courage had grown since then, no longer as timid as when he first rode a carriage in the capital. He fell asleep before he knew it.
He looked at the streets, houses, people, and stalls of Huajiang Prefecture and couldn't help feeling joyful.
Shu Yu introduced everything to him along the way, and the group soon arrived at Tianning County.
The county wasn't much different from the last time Shu Yu came here, and they settled in the same inn as before, getting a few rooms.
After putting their belongings away, except for old master Zhao staying at the inn, the others went straight to Quansheng Escort Agency.
Oh, and Gouwa was left behind.
The child had been on the road for a long time, and seeing that he looked drowsy, Shu Yu decided to leave him at the inn under old master Zhao's care.
Gouwa had already become familiar with old master Zhao, and with him around, the child felt at ease.
The group quickly arrived at Nan Wu Street. It had been ten years since Meng Pei and Meng Yunzheng had returned.
Now, walking on the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar streets, they felt a bit homesick, especially when they got closer to Nan Wu Street.
"I wonder if our old neighbors are still here." Meng Pei said while observing the houses along the street.
Meng Yunzheng smiled, "Several generations of families have lived here, I think they should still be around."
Father and son chatted as they gradually saw Quansheng Escort Agency, which was partially burnt.
Both of them almost stopped in their tracks simultaneously, then hastened their pace and soon stood in front of the main gate of Quansheng Escort Agency.
However, they didn't see the crazy beggar at the corner.
Meng Pei looked around and then turned to Shu Yu, "Shu Yu, did you see Yan Bo here before?"
Meng Pei had been eager to see Yan Bo again ever since he found out that he had been guarding Quansheng Escort Agency for so many years. He was even more anxious after learning about his current situation.
So this time, he brought Zhao Xi along to check on Yan Bo's condition.
But it turned out that Yan Bo wasn't there.
Shu Yu nodded, "He was indeed here before. Let me ask someone about his whereabouts."
Saying that, she turned her head and was about to ask the waiter from the opposite restaurant about Yan Bo's whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, the waiter happened to be standing at the entrance of the restaurant. He looked at Shu Yu in surprise and said, "Miss, it really is you! I thought the back looked somewhat familiar, but I didn't dare to confirm. It hasn't been long, but you've come back here again. I couldn't believe my eyes; it's really you."
