Chapter 449 Shu Yu is gone
Shu Yu didn't have much stuff, just a small bundle, which she could carry with her.
When she woke up the next day, the entire Lu family was standing at her door, their eyes slightly red.
Not only that, but there were also dark circles under their eyes, indicating they hadn't slept all night. Their mental state had clearly been poor these past few days.
Shu Yu smiled and said, "Didn't I say? I'll definitely be back in six months at most, so don't worry. Besides, I have people protecting me, and I'm dressed as a man, so it's very convenient for me to travel."
She pointed to her clothes and hairstyle, calmly comforting them.
That being said, the thought of being separated for six months did not comfort them at all.
The old lady handed her a purse, saying, "Take this."
"Milk?"
"Take it!!" the old lady insisted. "People say that it's better to be frugal on the road than poor at home. There are many places where you'll need money when you're out and about. If you encounter trouble, solve it with money if you can, don't fight head-on and hurt yourself. This money is the income from the shop over the past two months, and we also put the wages we received last month in here. Anyway, we're all at home, and the shop has business every day, so we don't need much. Take all of this with you."
Shu Yu felt the purse in her hand was heavy. She took a deep breath. "Grandma, I have money. Don't forget my thousand..."
"We've told you to stop mentioning a thousand taels. What's wrong with a thousand taels? What can a thousand taels do? What if it's not enough? Take it now, or we won't feel comfortable letting you go."
Oh my, old lady, your tone has become so arrogant now? A thousand taels is nothing to you?
Shu Yu looked down at the purse, smiled, and said, "Okay, I'll accept it then, so you can all feel more at ease."
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief, then gently stroked her head, her voice gradually becoming choked with emotion, "Be careful when you go out, and remember to come back safe and sound, okay?"
Shu Yu reached out and hugged her. "Grandma, I'm leaving the house to you."
She looked up and glanced at each of them; Sanya and Dahu had both run over and hugged her.
Shu Yu patted their heads. "Alright, I'm leaving now."
Just then, a knock came from outside the door. Lu Erbai turned his head away to cover his red eyes and opened the courtyard gate.
Two female bodyguards arrived.
These two were the ones Xiang Weinan had found. They were supposed to be female bodyguards, but in reality, neither of them had any martial arts skills. They were just there to show their faces to the Lu family and put their minds at ease.
The two nodded to Shu Yu. "Miss Lu, it's getting late, let's set off."
Shu Yu tightened the bundle on her shoulders and followed the two out the door.
The Lu family was worried and followed behind her, seeing her off all the way to the city gate before stopping.
After another farewell, Shu Yu turned around and mounted his horse.
She pulled on the reins, turned her head and waved to them, "Go back now, take care of yourselves."
Have a safe trip.
The Lu family chased after them for a few steps, and as they watched the horses get further and further away from them, they were still waving goodbye reluctantly.
Even after the three figures had completely disappeared from sight, they remained standing there, stunned.
Unable to contain herself any longer, Ruan threw herself into Lu Erbai's arms and burst into tears. "We've only been reunited for a few months, and now she's suddenly leaving again, and she won't be gone for another six months."
She was finding it hard to handle.
The old lady fought back tears and glared at her angrily, "Alright, stop crying. It's not like Ayu isn't coming back. Don't bring bad luck."
I'm posting a big update today because I've been saving up drafts and haven't had time to check for typos. If you see any typos later, please bear with me for now, I'll fix them during the day. Love you all, muah!
