Chapter 459 Shu Yu Eats Meat
The jailer brought over another bucket, and although the Shu family ladies looked like they wanted to vomit, they had almost gotten used to it.
Instead, they looked at Shu Yu with schadenfreude, wanting to see her make a fool of herself.
After all, they all vomited on the first day they ate there, and the jailer whipped them for wasting food.
They wanted to see if Shu Yu, who was eating this kind of food for the first time, could resist throwing up.
However, after the jailer distributed bowls to everyone, he forgot to give one to Shu Yu.
The Shu family members were puzzled, thinking that since it was Shu Yu's first time there, the jailer hadn't counted her bowl and chopsticks.
Shu Yu herself didn't want to receive the dishes at all, even though she considered herself a hard-working person. But seeing this kind of food for the first time, she really couldn't swallow it.
She thought she could still endure a meal of hunger, at least until she was mentally prepared.
She didn't even want to see that bucket of stuff.
Fortunately, the jailer finished distributing the buckets quickly and left with them.
The Shu family members gradually returned to their original seats and sat down. Looking at the food in front of them, they forced themselves to eat, even though they felt terrible.
Shu Yu let out a sigh of relief; it was better to forget about her.
Before long, the jailer arrived, carrying a food box, and headed straight for the innermost cell.
Upon arriving, he looked around and asked in a pretentious manner, "Which one of you is named Shu Yu?"
Shu Yu raised her head. "Yes, it is."
The jailer grunted in acknowledgment and then handed over the food box, saying, "Your meal."
Every member of the Shu family stopped eating and looked up at Shu Yu... at the food box in front of him.
The food box didn't look very fancy, but it was very clean, and there was a faint fragrance emanating from it, which made their stomachs churn.
The fourth sister couldn't help but ask first, "Why is her food different from ours?"
The jailer glanced at her and sneered, "If someone outside brings you food and bribes you a little, your meals will be different."
The fourth girl's eyes widened. "You, you mean this food was delivered to her by someone outside?"
Of course, no one from the Shu family brought them food. With such a big incident happening to the Shu family, their relatives and friends immediately pretended to be strangers or even enemies, distancing themselves from them as if they were afraid of being implicated.
Even the aunt of the Shu family, seeing her own mother and brother locked up inside, didn't dare to come and see them.
Besides, with so many people in the Shu family, who has the time to deliver meals to all of them?
The jailer tossed a piece of silver in his hand. "That's right. It was a gift from outsiders."
As he spoke, ignoring the Fourth Miss, he turned to Shu Yu with a gentle smile and said, "Miss, this food was brought to you by a couple outside. They asked me to tell you that although they have only known you for three months, it is still a kind of fate. They are unable to recognize you as their goddaughter, and now that you are in trouble, they can't help you in any other way, nor can they take care of you on your journey to exile. They can only send you food for one day while you are still in Dong'an Prefecture, so that you can eat well before you leave. Please take care on your journey to the southwest and protect yourself."
Shu Yu pursed her lips and accepted the food box. "Please ask the jailer to thank them for me, and also tell them to take good care of themselves and not overwork themselves. I can only repay their great kindness in my next life."
Shu Yu knew that Meng Yunzheng must have prepared the meal.
