Hu Li smiled bitterly and nodded. “Yes.”
Xiang Weinan felt that he needed to call a doctor.
Hu Li advised softly, “Lord, I think the Lu family’s personalities are all the same. They’re all stubborn. We can’t beat or scold them, and we can’t persuade them. Why don’t we agree to them?”
Xiang Weinan glared at him. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
“But Lord, you don’t know that they are already discussing the route. Even the aftermath… Even the shops, fields, servants, and houses had been arranged. I feel that even if we don’t agree, they will still secretly go over. We can’t always send people to keep an eye on them, right? Among the few of them, only Lu Erbai had traveled far, but the furthest had never left the Dongan Province. If something happens to these old and young people, the consequences will be serious.”
Xiang Weinan gritted his teeth. “Then how should I tell Lu Shuyu?”
Hu Li suggested, “Lord write her a letter. His words were more sincere. As long as they’re safe, Lady Lu might be happy to see her family.”
Xiang Weinan said, “The Lu family is already so old. Why are they still so insensible?”
Hu Li laughed dryly and Xiang Weinan into the hall.
The Lu family heard the commotion and turned around.
Xiang Weinan walked up to them and said expressionlessly, “I promise you.”
The Lu family members were delighted. “Lord, are you serious?”
“In short, go home and arrange other things first. Find an excuse to go far away and pack your things. I’ll find a reliable escort agency and have them escort you to the southwest.”
With that, Xiang Weinan turned around and left.
The Lu family finally calmed down. They helped each other up and walked towards the door.
It was not until they left the county office that they wiped away their sweat. They were worried that Shu Yu was real, but they were also frightened by the Lord’s bold threatening behavior.
It was just that the desire to see Shu Yu and run to the southwest was even deeper.
It was getting late. The old lady asked Daniu to go back first. He had to return the village chief’s ox cart first and asked him to come back tomorrow.
After Daniu left, the family returned to Liufang Alley.
The next day, the Lu family got busy.
They temporarily handed the shop over to Daniu, and the house was rented out. Some of the things they couldn’t take with them were sent back home or placed in the shop’s backyard.
Lu Dasong and Lu Sanzhu both knew what had happened. Although they didn’t agree, they couldn’t persuade the old lady and could only compromise.
Lu Erbai made a trip to Doctor Xu’s clinic and shamelessly asked Doctor Xu about his share from last month.
He was very embarrassed, but there were too many places in the Southwest that needed money. They still wanted to walk faster and catch up with Yu. When the time came, they would give the official escorts some money and let them follow behind and take care of Ah Yu at all times.
Therefore, even if they had 2,000 taels on hand, they still felt that it was not enough.
Although Doctor Xu was surprised, he did not ask further. Due to the large number of orders in the first month, the orders in the second month slowed down. Doctor Xu still rounded them up and gave Lu Erbai 500 taels.
The Lu family members split up and acted at a breakneck speed. In a day, they had finished all the things that they needed to explain.
Xiang Weinan had also founded a bodyguard agency. There were indeed female escorts in the agency, two men and one woman, to escort them to the southwest.
He wrote a letter himself and got someone to send it to Meng Yunzheng at top speed, asking him to give it to Shu Yu.
