Chapter 1309 Meng Yunzheng Participates in the County Examination
Ren Huai smiled and said, "Meng Yunzheng? Don't forget the news we found out. He's going to take the county exam soon."
Manager Xu's eyes lit up. "Then shall we wait until he leaves Jiangyuan County before looking for Lord Lu?"
After saying that, he frowned again, "But he'll come back sooner or later, and when he comes back..."
"So what if she comes back? We just asked Lu Xiangjun to give us a little more discount. We didn't do anything to her or make her lose money."
That's true.
After they made their decision, they waited quietly.
Shu Yu hadn't expected that Meng Yunzheng would leave before the people from the capital had even arrived.
The county examination is in February, and it's already the end of January. At this point, they have to travel non-stop to get there, so Meng Yunzheng really can't delay any longer.
Shu Yu prepared things for him for the exam. "I won't give you anything else. You can buy it when you get back to your hometown. This is called instant noodles. I've been trying to make it these past few days. It's just a small piece of noodles. You can eat it by soaking it in water. It's very simple and convenient. You can also eat it dry. It's just the county exam now, unlike the provincial exam or the metropolitan exam where you have to stay in the exam hall for several days. So food shouldn't be a big problem."
Meng Yunzheng looked at the small pancake in his hand in surprise, brought it to his nose and smelled it; it had a faint, refreshing fragrance.
He broke off a small piece with his hand and put it in his mouth. It was crunchy and actually quite delicious.
He carefully put the flatbread away and said with a smile, "You seem to know quite a bit about the exam venue."
"Of course you need to know, so you can prepare in advance." Shu Yu carefully put away the few pieces of flatbread. "Zhao Xi isn't by your side this time either, you'll be all alone, so you need to take good care of yourself."
"Don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I finish my exams. You wait for me at home. If anything happens, just look for Zhao Xi. Xiang Weinan hasn't left yet, so you can take this opportunity to bother him a bit."
Zhao Xi, who was not far away, couldn't bear to watch. He said to Shu You beside him, "You know, they're both capable people who can handle things perfectly well without either of them. How come they sound like they can't take care of themselves right now? Are they out of their minds?"
Shu You opened her mouth, about to reply, when she suddenly felt a tightness in her chest and a bit of discomfort.
By the time she had suppressed her discomfort, Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng had finished talking, and the latter was preparing to leave.
Only Meng Yunzheng and Xia Yan were on this trip; Meng Pei had gone out to escort goods.
He returned after the New Year and continued working at the escort agency. A few days ago, the agency needed someone for a long-distance escort mission and assigned Meng Pei to the job.
Meng Pei felt that Meng Yunzheng was already so old, had visited his hometown and met the Meng family, and that it was just a small event like the county examination, so he could handle it all by himself. Therefore, he happily went off on his mission.
Meng Yunzheng hadn't wanted to make a big fuss, as he felt Meng Pei was in good spirits. He had been worried that after avenging his father and killing Gong Qiu, Meng Pei would become depressed, having lost both his mother and his support.
Now that he's busier than he is, Meng Yunzheng is relieved.
After leaving Xiao Songle at the Lu family's house, Meng Yunzheng and Xia Yan left the city to continue their journey.
After seeing the person off, Shu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and turned to go home.
But after taking only two steps, Zhao Xi's exclamation suddenly came from behind, "Wife..."
Shu Yu turned around abruptly and saw Shu You's face was pale, and she was covering her mouth and vomiting violently.
She was startled. "Sister, what's wrong?"
Zhao Xi half-held the person and anxiously took her pulse.
