Mrs. Tang was stunned and didn’t say anything. Tang Wenqian was afraid that the Lu family would notice something was wrong, so he immediately said, “Why are you out at this time of the year? Did Daniu go with her?”
“No, She had something urgent to attend to and went quite far away. However, I asked someone to find two female escorts to escort her all the way there.”
Tang Wenqian looked at Lu Erbai and the old lady Lu family’s expressions. They didn’t know anything.
He was now certain that the exiled person was the second daughter of the Lu family.
But what did she do? How did she suddenly become a lady of the Shu family?
Could it be that she came from the Shu family in the past?
Tang Wenqian felt that he might have guessed the truth. He wanted to ask more details. However, when he looked up again, he realized that the old lady was looking at him with a strange expression. He did not dare to ask anymore, afraid that the two of them would be suspicious.
Therefore, Tang Wenqian quickly changed the topic. He knew that Dahu had started studying, so he asked with concern.
Then, he excused himself and left, saying that he was tired from just returning.
Mrs. Tang was on tenterhooks the entire time. She only turned around when they were out of the door and on the donkey cart. She grabbed Tang Wenqian’s hand and said excitedly, “It’s her. That person must be the second daughter of the Lu family. oh my god, why was she…”
“Mother!” Tang Wenqian interrupted her in a deep voice and glanced at the driver leading the donkey cart.
Mrs. Tang swallowed her saliva and lowered her voice. “Wenqian, what do you think happened to the second daughter of the Lu family? I used to think that she was a mysterious person. She had only been home for a few months, and I hadn’t heard her talk about it for the past ten years. Could it be that she did something outside and was captured this time?”
Tang Wenqian took a deep breath and patted Mrs. Tang’s hand. “Mother, just pretend you don’t know about this. Don’t tell anyone or mention it. Miss Lu’s matter is probably very complicated. Think about it, her exile is such a big matter, but the Lu family doesn’t know at all. This means that the government didn’t rush to the Lu family to arrest her. This is very strange.”
Mrs. Tang nodded. “I know, I know. I won’t say anything.”
Tang Wenqian was still frowning. He thought of Shu Yu who was in the exile team. She had never seen such a fearful and timid expression.
Would such a fierce person, who stood in front of her sister and forced Zhang Shu to leave, show such an expression?
At the thought of this, Tang Wenqian said, “Maybe that’s not Miss Lu. It’s just a coincidence that she looks similar.”
Mrs. Tang looked at him. How could there be such a coincidence?
The two of them stopped discussing Shu Yu.
The donkey cart drove out of Ningshui Street and disappeared after a turn.
Madam Liang held Baoya’s hand and looked at the back of the donkey cart. She frowned and muttered to herself, “Am I seeing things? Was that the woman from the Tang family? Where did she come from? Look at all the bags.”
Did she buy so many things at Ningshui Street? With their family’s shabby appearance, it was impossible for them to suddenly become rich, right?
Madam Liang pursed her lips and continued to hold Baoya’s hand as they walked towards Yiren Pavilion.
Seeing that she was almost there, she immediately stopped and squatted down to say to Baoya, “Do you remember what Mother told you just now?”
Baoya nodded heavily and patted her chest. “I’ll remember.”
