Then, Shu Yu saw him quickly write a long paragraph.
“Before I came to Jiangyuan County, I went to the Shu Residence with an elder. At that time, other than seeing Mr. Shu, we also saw several young masters and young ladies of the Shu family, including the third Miss…Shu Yu.”
Shu Yu suddenly raised her head, and a look of shock flashed across her face.
“You said you saw the third Miss of the Shu family?”
Meng Yunzheng nodded. “In the beginning, the Shu family only let the two young ladies out, claiming that the third Miss was ill and was not in good condition to see guests. I said that Doctor Zhao’s medical skills are brilliant, so we can let her take a look at her illness. The Shu family had no choice but to let the third Miss come out.”
“But the Shu family doesn’t know I know you and even talked to you. After leaving the Shu family, I felt something was amiss and wanted to investigate what was happening. However, for some reason, the Shu family was heavily guarded during that period, making it difficult to attack. I went to the Dongqing Temple. You had a good relationship with the Dongqing Temple.
Perhaps you could learn something from her. However, the Dongqing Temple’s master went out to travel. Later on, something happened to Doctor Zhao and me, so we didn’t have time to think about anything else. I didn’t expect to meet you here in Jiangyuan County again.”
“Although I’m curious as to why you suddenly changed from the Shu Family’s third Miss to the Lu Family’s second Miss, I won’t ask if you don’t want to tell me. Everyone has their privacy.”
Shu Yu was in a daze for a moment. She took two steps to the side and frowned as she tried to think.
She had already left the Shu family, but the Shu family’s third Miss still appeared in front of everyone.
From the looks of it, the Shu family did not announce the news of the third Miss’s death to the public. It made sense. They didn’t find her body at the bottom of the lotus pond, so the Shu family knew she was still alive.
The Shu family did not announce her death immediately because they probably wanted to find her whereabouts first. Who knew that Meng Yunzheng and the others happened to go to the Shu family at this time and also wanted to see the third Miss. For some reason, the Shu family found a girl to pretend to be her.
By the way, Meng Yunzheng said that the Shu family was heavily guarded during that time. It should be that the Shu family faced being investigated after she left.
Under such circ.u.mstances, not only was the Shu family unable to send people to find her whereabouts, but it was also not convenient for them to do anything cheeky. It was difficult to let the fake third Miss ‘pa.s.s away’ to avoid unnecessary complications.
Anyway, in the eyes of the Shu family, even if she was lucky enough to escape from the bottom of the lake, she was still a timid girl. Without a household registration pa.s.s and friends, she probably wouldn’t be able to survive.
The Shu family’s situation was more important than their daughter’s.
Shu Yu suddenly thought of the exile. The ending in the book was that Shu Yu was exiled to the southwest with the rest of the Shu family.
She was called Lu Shuyu.
Then, was it possible that the person who would be exiled was not her but the fake third Miss?
No, she couldn’t take any chances. She had to prepare for the worst. Of course, it would be best if she could not be exiled. Even if she was exiled, she had to return as soon as possible.
Shu Yu shook her head, but the smile on her face bloomed.
The ending that was originally destined had suddenly turned bright again. This feeling was simply too wonderful.
As she laughed, Meng Yunzheng wrote another sentence, “As long as your household registration is fine, you don’t have to worry even if you go to the county office.”
Shu Yu’s household registration was, of course, not a problem. She relied on this thing given by the DDongqing Temple to return to the village from the city…
