Mrs. Xue trembled and quickly retreated in fear. She silently returned to the place where she had eaten just now.
Shu Yu was speechless. Before she could say anything.
However, it did not matter. She had originally planned to come back tomorrow and let Mrs. Xue know something in advance and get her something good.
The group continued on their way.
When the sky was about to turn dark, they finally arrived at the relay station.
Meanwhile, Meng Yunzheng led the Lu family to another small road and entered a small town in front of them.
Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi were the only two of them before, so they just casually arranged their accommodation for the night.
They would either camp outside, take another route like today, and enter the town or county first, or stay in the relay station where Shu Yu and the others stayed.
Today, he was going to lead Lu Erbai to see Shu Yu, while the rest of the Lu family had to go to town to open an inn.
This small town was not big, and there were only one or two inns. It was rare to see so many guests coming, and the innkeeper was very enthusiastic.
Therefore, when Meng Yunzheng asked him if he could borrow the kitchen, he immediately agreed.
When they reached the kitchen, Meng Yunzheng said to the old lady, “They don’t eat well during the day, so I always make some food for her at night. Since you’re here today, perhaps you can give her a surprise and make something she likes.”
The old lady immediately rolled up her sleeves. “Alright, alright, we’ll do it. Didn’t Yu eat well during the day? Then, I’ll go and ask the shopkeeper for some chicken, duck, fish, or something…”
Before she could finish, Meng Yunzheng stopped her. He touched his nose and said embarrassedly, “Don’t make the chicken, duck, and fish.”
“Why? Was it not easy to take care of? That’s right. The smell is a little strong. Others might be able to smell it.”
Meng Yunzheng coughed lightly. Zhao Xi, who was beside him, chuckled. “That’s not it. When Yun brought food to Lady Lu previously, he had the same thoughts as you guys. He brought meat for her every day and Lady Lu got angry from eating it. That’s why Lady Lu asked us to send some vegetarian food over.”
The Lu family was speechless.
They all looked at Meng Yunzheng in shock and wanted to laugh.
He didn’t expect Young Master Meng, who looked so elegant and seemed to be able to do everything with ease, to encounter such a thing.
The old lady quickly smiled and said, “Alright, let’s make something simple and light.”
After a pause, she said gratefully to Meng Yunzheng, “Actually, you’ve always said that Yu didn’t suffer any grievances along the way and that she ate well. Although I don’t think you’re lying, I’m still worried that you’re comforting us. In the end, when I heard that you fed her meat every day and that she was on fire from eating it, I felt at ease.”
Not to mention the exiled people, even in the ordinary people’s homes, who could afford to eat meat every day?
Meng Yunzheng was too embarrassed to stay any longer. He said to the few of them, “Then you guys go ahead. I’ll get ready. I’ll bring Uncle Lu over in a while.”
He almost ran away. When the Lu family members saw this, they all laughed softly.
This was the first time they had laughed so easily since they found out that Yu had been exiled.
After the old lady brought the others to cook, Meng Yunzheng also came back with a few fruits in his hand. “The place I passed by a few days ago didn’t sell any fruits because it was too late. This time, I found a few pomelos. I’ll send them to her later.”
