The Lu family members were even happier. They had never thought that they could give prisoners meat and fruits on their way to exile.
The old lady packed up the food. Seeing that it was getting late, she quickly put some of the things she had prepared in the bag and handed them all to Lu Erbai. “There is medicine and silver in here. Remember to give it to Yu. She will need it.”
Lu Erbai took it and carefully noted everyone’s advice.
Meng Yunzheng didn’t say anything, even though Shu Yu didn’t lack medicine and silver, and couldn’t bring it with her.
However, this was a token of the Lu family’s appreciation. Lu Erbai would bring it with her. When he met the person, he would naturally understand the situation and bring this bag back.
Meng Yunzheng brought Lu Erbai out. The sky had already turned dark, and the carriage was moving slowly.
The car stopped not far from the relay station.
Zhao Xi stayed outside to receive them while Meng Yunzheng led Lu Erbai over the wall into the courtyard.
There weren’t many people at the courier station, and their movements were light, so they didn’t alarm anyone.
Meng Yunzheng picked a house that was far away and unoccupied. He told Lu Erbai, “Uncle Lu, please wait a while. Lady Lu can only sneak out after the others are asleep. I’ll go outside to take a look. Once she comes out, bring her here immediately.”
Lu Erbai nodded repeatedly. “Alright, don’t worry. I definitely won’t make a sound. It would help if you were careful too. Don’t let anyone find out.”
“Yes.”
Meng Yunzheng went out. Lu Erbai stayed in the room, not even daring to breathe loudly.
It had only been less than fifteen minutes, but he felt as if it had been an entire day.
There was no ventilation in the room, and the night was actually very cool, but Lu Erbai’s forehead was still covered in sweat.
After another 15 minutes, Lu Erbai heard a sound coming from outside.
Delighted, he quickly stood up from the stool and went out to welcome her.
However, just as he moved, he immediately stopped.
No, he had to hide. If it wasn’t for Yu or Young Master Meng who came in, he would have been exposed.
He looked around and hid behind the cabinet, holding his breath as he looked at the door.
The door was opened and two figures walked in.
Lu Erbai’s vision was blocked. He didn’t see who the other party was and didn’t dare to come out.
The two of them closed the door. Soon, he heard a familiar voice. “Young Master Meng, you said someone wanted to see me. Where is he?”
“Yu.” Lu Erbai came out from behind the cabinet. He took a few steps forward in surprise and rushed in front of her.
“!!!” Shu Yu turned her head and looked at her father in disbelief.
She rubbed her eyes, almost suspecting that she was hallucinating.
No, she was now on the road to exile, not in Jiangyuan County, right?
Why was her father here? He, he knew?
Shu Yu was a little helpless and actually could not speak for a moment.
It was Meng Yunzheng who pulled the two of them to the side and said in a low voice, “It won’t be long. Hurry up and talk. I’ll go outside and guard you.”
Meng Yunzheng went out, and Shu Yu seemed to have found her voice again. “Dad, you, why are you here?”
Lu Erbai wiped his face. “It’s a long story. Eat something first. I’ll tell you as we eat.”
As he spoke, he opened the lunchbox in front of him. “These dishes were all made by your grandma and the others. Young Master Meng said that you can’t eat too much meat now, so she only made one meat dish. Try it.”
