“Is it true?” The old lady asked again.
Xiang Weinan coughed lightly. “I’ll try my best to help her. I know people in the southwest too. I’ll ask my friends to take care of her. When there’s an opportunity, I’ll naturally ask her to come back as soon as possible.”
He didn’t dare to be too certain. Otherwise, if Shu Yu didn’t appear in half a year, the Lu family would come back to look for him.
However, his words made the Lu family, who were still anxious, feel uncomfortable again.
Xiang Weinan sighed. “I’ve said everything I need to say. Lady Lu is really fine. You don’t have to worry. She also had some silver on her, so it would be easy for her to do anything in the southwest. After spending so much time with her, you should know her ability. Even if she doesn’t have a penny, she can still live a prosperous life.”
The Lu family felt that he was making it sound too easy. Even if someone were to bribe them on the way to exile, they would have to suffer a lot. What if there was an oversight?
Also, the southwest was a barren land, much, much poorer than Jiangyuan County. Yu was all alone and not free. How could she live a good life?
No matter what, they couldn’t accept that Yu was suffering alone outside again, without a single family member by her side.
Lu Erbai took a deep breath and suddenly stood up. With a bang, he once again knelt in front of Xiang Weinan.
Xiang Weinan’s eyelids twitched violently. He looked at his injured leg and felt that his old injury was about to relapse. Lu Shu Yu would blame him later.
“What are you doing?”
“Lord, I want to go to the southwest. I’ve lost my daughter for more than ten years. I can’t leave her alone in such a difficult situation. When I think of the hardships she might face, I can’t feel at ease at all.”
“Me too.” The old lady and the others also knelt.
Xiang Weinan looked at them in disbelief. “You’re going to the southwest? Are you guys crazy?”
However, the Lu family was very determined. Xiang Weinan couldn’t take it anymore. He waved his hand and left.
This family was crazy. They had said it before. That was a barren land. It was not enough for Lu Shu Yu to go alone, they also wanted to go.
It had been a long time since he had been so angry.
At this moment, Hu Li returned. “Sir, Scholar Tang and his family have been brought here.”
Xiang Weinan nodded and looked back. The Lu family was still kneeling there.
He sneered and met Tang Wenqian.
The hall was quiet. After a long time, the old lady swayed a little. Lu Erbai hurriedly supported her. “Mother, go sit down. I’ll just kneel here.”
The old lady shook her head. “No need. I can handle it.”
Lu Erbai was silent for a moment. “Mother, you can stay in Jiangyuan County. I’ll go to the southwest. I’ve been on a few long trips before, so I have experience. All of you stay at home…”
Before he could finish his sentence, the old lady slapped him. Madam Ryan shook her head. “I want to go.”
Daya and Daniu: “Me too.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned to look at Daniu.
The old lady said to him, “What are you going to do? You don’t want your parent? If you dare to leave, do you believe that your Mother will hang herself? Besides, you’re getting married at the end of the year. You don’t want a wife anymore, right? You don’t have to go. Stay at home. The Lu family depends on you.”
Lu Erbai nodded as well. “That’s right, Daniu. Stay at home and help Second Uncle look after the shop. Wait for us to come back.”
