Chapter 44 Something Big Has Happened
Sanya seemed to understand but not quite, while Dahu listened attentively, his ears perked up.
Shu Yu noticed at a glance that this little guy probably imitated adults in his actions and speech because he was a boy and the only boy in the Lu family.
They were clearly burning with curiosity, but they wouldn't say a word, pretending to be very composed. They didn't know how to express their joy, so they just silently stood by, a sight that was both heartbreaking and comforting.
Sanya relied on her a lot and had become familiar with her by now, snuggling close to her. "Second sister, where is that handsome guy you mentioned?"
"I don't know either." Shu Yu shook her head. She had only seen that person twice a year ago, and all she knew was that his surname was Meng.
Back at Dongqing Temple, she and Lu Erbai were seriously injured, and they were both healed by a passing itinerant doctor.
The owner of that itinerant doctor was none other than this young master Meng with the pleasant voice.
Young Master Meng was just passing by, and she was recuperating from her injuries. Their meeting was purely by chance, and they never saw each other again after that.
Sanya wanted to ask more, but Ruan Shi waved and said, "The donkey cart is here, get on quickly, we're leaving."
The group then stopped talking.
There were already two people on the donkey cart, and with the four of them added, it suddenly became much more crowded.
Fortunately, Da Hu and San Ya were both thin and weak children, so it didn't bother them when they were held on my lap.
The donkey cart headed towards the county town, picking up two more people along the way, and then there was no more room for anyone else.
Most villagers still rely on their own two legs to go to the county town for the market, since they are reluctant to spend one or two coins on a ride.
Ruan was actually reluctant to spend the money, but it still had to be spent.
The group swayed and rocked in the cart, and just as Sanya was about to fall asleep in Shuyu's arms, the donkey cart finally stopped.
"We've arrived."
Sanya was lifted down by Shuyu, and holding hands with Dahu, she looked up at the tall city wall in front of her, her face full of surprise and exclaimed, "So this is the county town!"
Ruan was taken aback, feeling a pang of sadness. Yes, her family was poor; she had never even brought her two children to the county town.
Shu Yu grabbed one of them with each hand and said, "Let's go, let's go to the clinic first."
The four of them followed the bustling crowd into the city gate, while Lu Sanzhu was hurrying home, sweating profusely.
Startled by his frantic appearance, Mrs. Liang couldn't help but scold, "Are you trying to get yourself killed? Why are you running so fast? Are there dogs chasing you?"
Lu Sanzhu didn't mind her bad attitude. He scooped a ladle of water from the water vat, drank it down with gusto, and then said, "Something's happened, something terrible has happened."
"What's up? Where did you go so early in the morning?"
"Let me tell you, Er Ya is really amazing. She actually guessed right. She's incredible." Lu Sanzhu said with admiration as he walked out.
Liang pulled the person back, "Explain yourself clearly, what exactly happened?"
"Oh dear, it's hard to explain in a short time. I'll go find Er Ya first."
As he was about to leave, Madam Liang quickly said, "Er Ya isn't here. Second Sister-in-law and her family have all gone to the county town."
"They went to the county town?" Lu Sanzhu frowned, then sat back down and fanned himself vigorously with a palm-leaf fan. "Then I'll wait for them to come back."
However, after sitting for a while, he suddenly stood up again, "No, I can't wait."
He tossed aside his palm-leaf fan and said to Madam Liang, "You wait at home. I'm going to the county town to find Er Ya. I'm telling you, if I tell her this important news, I might even get some benefits in return."
