Chapter 526: Agree to Bring Miss Six
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Madam Hou had once felt that Shu Yu was a bit silly, to still go against the Shu family at this juncture.
Even if she pretended to be polite, she would first get through the difficulties in front of them. When she had the power and ability, it would not be too late to fall out with them.
Now that she thought about it, she might be the stupid one.
Shu Yu indeed did not need to curry favor with the Shu family. Look at her now, she was simply living too comfortably.
“Besides, what can I tell you? At that time, you were so young, so you might not remember at all. You might not believe me even if I told you. Today, I had no choice. Sixth Young Lady is my life. I was terrified that she would die just like that, so I came to you with the mentality of giving it a try.”
Shu Yu looked at Miss Six who was curled up on the ground not far away and finally nodded. “Okay, I agree.”
Madam Hou’s face lit up. “Thank you Third Young Lady.”
“But you have to think clearly. Once Sixth Young Lady gets into the car, the Shu family will all hate you.”
Although the Shu family was exhausted and didn’t have the time to do anything, there were still many people. They couldn’t attack Shu Yu, but couldn’t they attack Madam Hou, who was “on Shu Yu’s side”?
Madam Hou, she didn’t care. “If they hate me, then so be it. Can they kill me?”
As long as she knew what was going on, Shu Yu did not ask any more questions. She turned around and walked towards the officers.
Madam Hou stood still, but her fingers were tightly clenched. She was very nervous.
After a while, a few officers looked over and said a few words before nodding.
Shu Yu came back and said to Madam Hou, “Help her into the carriage.”
Madam Hou’s eyes lit up. “Alright, alright. Thank you Third Young Lady, thank you.”
She thanked her profusely, looking relieved.
However, when the two of them walked to the Sixth Young Lady’s side and saw her like this, Madam Hou’s face turned slightly pale.
Madam Hou called her a few times and the Sixth Young Lady muttered softly, “Mother…”
“Don’t be afraid. Mother will help you to the car to rest.”
Madam Hou did not have much strength. She was already wearing heavy shackles and coupled with the fact that the Sixth Young Lady could barely stand, all the weight fell on her body. Madam Hou was struggling.
Shu Yu took a hand and shifted most of the weight to her side.
Madam Hou thanked her gratefully.
Like that, the two of them helped the sixth girl to the side of the mule carriage and directly helped her lie down.
The rest of the Shu family looked at this scene in astonishment. What did this mean? What did Madam Hou mean?
The Second Mistress was the first to glare at her. “Madam Hou, are you going to betray the Shu family?”
Betrayal?
Shu Yu sneered. Madam Hou calmly said, “What betrayal? My daughter is about to die.”
The Fourth Young Lady said fiercely, “Do you think she won’t die just because she’s lying on the prison carriage? Madam Hou, you have to think carefully. If you get close to this b*tch now, no one in our Shu family will accept you when we reach the southwest. And my father, when the time comes, he will directly expel you from the family. You and Sixth Sister will also not be able to live.”
Among the males of the Shu family, only the Head Master of the magistrate was beheaded. The others would also be exiled.
However, unlike the womenfolk, they would probably set off a few days or a month later.
If the First Elder was dead, then the person in charge of the Shu family either be the Second Elder or the First Young Master, Shu Feng.
A large part of the reason why the Shu family could still be so united was because they were counting on their lives to be better once they met the males in the southwest.
