Chapter 1152 Zhao Xi: I've already avenged you.
Shu Yu spat out the tea in her mouth with a "pfft".
She looked at Meng Pei in astonishment; she was indeed too naive.
Yes, she's too naive!
Meng Pei pretended not to see her shock and continued to act like a kind and understanding father, "Father knows that you didn't tell me because of circumstances and because you were thinking of me. I am very pleased that you are so filial and sensible."
Meng Yunzheng chuckled and nodded, "Anyway, you've said all the contradictory things, both black and white."
Shu Yu thought that Meng Yunzheng was able to experience such a change at the age of ten and live under the oppressive gaze of Gongqiu for ten years, but he did not become extreme, sinister and vengeful towards society. Instead, he grew into a positive and good young man. Besides his own precocious intelligence and competence, Meng Pei, as his father, also played a large part in this.
Meng Pei stopped cursing, but occasionally glared at Meng Yunzheng.
Meng Yunzheng was used to such stares.
After the group had lunch together, Meng Yunzheng went inside to talk to Meng Pei alone and told him everything that had happened during that time.
Shu Yu then seized the opportunity to find Zhao Xi and asked him in a low voice, "You didn't tell him about the Yao family, did you?"
If I had said that, Meng Yunzheng probably wouldn't have reacted that way.
Sure enough, Zhao Xi shook his head and whispered mysteriously, "Of course not, anyway, I've already avenged you for this."
Have you taken revenge?
Shu Yu looked at him suspiciously, then remembered how attentive he had been to Yao An's wounds earlier.
She narrowed her eyes slightly. "You tampered with the medicine?"
“Yeah, that’s right.” Zhao Xi chuckled. “His wound won’t heal for at least a month, and it’s incredibly painful.”
Yao An had been whipped twenty times by Yao Tianqin, who had also drugged him. Coupled with the pent-up frustration in his chest, he was already half-dead.
If Meng Yunzheng finds out at this critical juncture, Zhao Xi is afraid that someone might die.
Shu Yu nodded. Indeed, she hadn't gone so far as to take Yao An's life.
Because of Meng Pei's arrival, in order to welcome them and for the family to reunite, Zhao Xi went to a restaurant and ordered a table of food and wine that evening.
After a lively family meal, they went to bed early.
The next day, Meng Yunzheng took Meng Pei to the outskirts to pay respects to Song Xin.
This time, Shu Yu didn't go with them, unlike Meng Pei and Meng Yunzheng.
This is the capital city, too close to the palace. Not to mention the people watching the Quansheng Escort Agency in Tianning County, Song Xin's grave in the suburbs is even more under surveillance.
Meng Yunzheng could still come to pay respects to his mother from time to time, but Meng Pei never came. He could only talk to her by holding her memorial tablet. No matter how painful it was, he always endured it, lest he not only fail to avenge his wife but also harm his son.
He probably had a lot to say to his wife about this trip up the mountain, and it wouldn't be very convenient for Shuyu to come along.
Just then, Zhao Xi and his master also went out.
Shu Yu took this opportunity to stroll around the streets.
To be honest, Shu Yu has been in Beijing for over a month, and she has never actually strolled around the streets as carefully as she did today.
The capital city is different from Dong'an Prefecture. It is more prosperous, with not only many high-ranking officials and nobles, but also many merchants.
Shu Yu's courtyard is located in the south of the city, which happens to be the area with the most vendors.
There are many shops here, and quite a few good things.
There was also a shop that specialized in selling imported goods.
