Chapter 233 My lord, Miss Lu is in trouble.

Shu Yu stopped her, saying, "Grandma, I'll go. You stay home and rest."

She took Da Hu and San Ya out the door. Although the two children had been in the county town for several days, they rarely went out. They knew that the adults were busy, and even if they wanted to go out for a walk, they didn't want to bother them, so they just played in the backyard of the shop.

Especially Sanya, who used to avoid going out and had few friends when she lived in Shangshi Village because of the scar on her face. Now that the scar has faded so much that it's barely visible, the little girl wants to go out and see more of the world.

Shu Yu knew they were sensible and was happy to take them out more often, at least to familiarize them with the surrounding environment.

Sanya was a little excited, but she held Shuyu's hand and said regretfully, "Zhaocai also wants to come out, but Second Sister is already working so hard taking care of both of us, so she can't bring Zhaocai along. I explained it to Zhaocai properly, and it agreed not to go out."

Shu Yu looked down at the little girl. Compared to when they first met, San Ya was now truly childlike.

Her originally thin and rosy face has finally become plump and pink.

"So how did you explain it to Zhao Cai?"

Da Hu ruthlessly revealed the truth from the side: "She just explained once, then put some food in Zhao Cai's bowl and ran away."

Shu Yu was stunned. San Ya had already rushed to Da Hu and reached out to pull his face. "Brother, you are not allowed to speak."

Shu Yu laughed heartily from the side, "Da Hu, you really need to change your straight-man personality."

The brother and sister were laughing and joking around, and Shu Yu's attention was focused on them.

Therefore, they didn't notice that as they passed by the county government office, they brushed past the same familiar figure.

The figure paused, glanced back suspiciously, and muttered, "I think I just saw Miss Lu?"

But Shu Yu had just turned the corner and was already out of sight.

Hu Li could only look away and continue running into the county government office.

Xiang Weinan had just finished reading a file. His eyes were a little sore, so he blinked and got up to drink some tea.

Just as I was about to sit back down, Hu Li rushed in.

He paused, then asked, "Is something the matter?"

Hu Li was walking quickly and was still slightly out of breath. Hearing this, he nodded quickly, swallowed hard, and then said, "Sir, Miss Lu is in trouble."

Xiang Weinan raised an eyebrow. "You mean, Lu Shuyu?"

"Yes, yes, sir, you have no idea what I heard when I went out just now."

"Oh, then tell me." Xiang Weinan sat down in the chair, poured himself a cup of tea, and sipped it slowly.

Hu Li leaned forward and said, "Sir, didn't Miss Lu give me a bottle of wine yesterday? I thought it was quite good. When I came back from outside the city just now, I happened to pass by that wine shop, so I thought I'd buy a couple of bottles to keep. But when I went in, I didn't see anyone in the shop, so I went to the counter to pick them out myself."

Just as he was squatting on the ground looking at the wine jars, Jiang Yi and Deng Shi walked in from outside the door.

Neither of them noticed anyone had entered their shop, nor did they see Hu Li crouching down. They didn't try to avoid talking about it, and eventually the conversation turned to Jiang Sanshao's interest in Shu Yu.

Hu Li was shocked to hear this and immediately got up to inquire about the details.

Upon learning that Lu Shuyu was in trouble, he rushed back to the county government office without saying a word.
