Chapter 1601 Shu Yu doesn't want her to go back
Shu Yu turned her head in surprise, "You're going back? Back to Changjin Mansion?"
Meng Han nodded; she had been out for quite some time. She had originally planned to delay as long as possible, at least until she had seen all the blooming sunflowers before leaving.
The sunflowers are now in bloom, and they are truly beautiful and stunning.
Although Meng Han didn't want to go back, at this point, she had no excuse to stay any longer.
She left home on a whim, and it was only thanks to her cousin and sister Shuyu that she was taken in. However, this is not her home after all. She has been bothering people for too long, and she can't stay here forever.
The thought of going back and facing Tao Qin and her biased mother made her feel upset and resistant.
Shu Yu pursed her lips, her brows furrowing slightly.
The situation in Changjin Prefecture is far from peaceful. The emperor in the capital has begun to feign illness, indicating that he does not intend to continue tolerating the second and third princes. Once the emperor takes action, Qi Lie, who has already infiltrated the black market of Changjin Prefecture, will inevitably follow suit.
The prefect of Changjin Prefecture is a cunning man. If a conflict breaks out between the two sides, the entire Changjin Prefecture will likely descend into chaos.
With the situation chaotic, looting and vandalism are bound to occur, and Meng Han, being a young woman, would inevitably suffer if something happened to her. Moreover, her uncle is away on a long journey carrying goods.
However, Shu Yu definitely wouldn't tell her these things.
As she walked towards the edge of the field, she asked her, "Does your cousin know about this?"
Meng Han shook her head. "I received the letter yesterday. My cousin wasn't home at the time, and I was going to come to Shangshi Village with Grandma Fang, so I didn't have time to give it to him. My cousin and uncle don't know about it yet."
Grandma Fang is an old lady, and Meng Han arrived a day earlier than Shu Yu.
She was quite interested in the wedding customs of Jiangyuan County.
Shu Yu understood. "Let's talk about this after Lan Hua gets married and meets your cousin. Whether to go back or how to go back, we need to discuss it properly."
Even if Meng Han eventually has to return to Changjin Mansion, at the very least someone should be found to escort her back.
Meng Han thought about it and agreed. Anyway, there was no rush, and she would procrastinate as long as she could.
"Let's go back. Everyone's almost finished lunch. After a short rest, it'll be time to carry the dowry to the groom's house. Let's..."
Just as Shu Yu was about to turn around, she suddenly stopped. Meng Han asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
She followed Shu Yu's gaze and stared in surprise, "Isn't that Xu Cai? After being kicked out by Lan Hua, why didn't she go home? What is she doing in the sunflower field?"
Shu Yu also found it strange. She didn't have much of an impression of Xu Cai. If she hadn't heard Xu Cai's provocative words earlier, she would have always regarded her as just a friend of Lan Hua.
Now I just feel that this person is very jealous, and it's best to avoid any contact with him.
But what is she doing sneaking into the sunflower field right now?
Shu Yu narrowed her eyes. If she had gone anywhere else, it would have been fine, but once she entered the flower field, she couldn't help but suspect that Xu Cai was up to something.
"Let's go take a look."
The sunflowers have grown very tall and large, forming a dense, continuous field. Once a person enters, their shadow is almost completely obscured.
Shu Yu and Meng Han were both skilled in martial arts, so they moved very lightly and quickly caught up with Xu Cai by following the subtle sounds.
Before they could get a good look, they heard an unfamiliar voice say, "Ah Cai, you're here."
