Chapter 1747 Shu Yu's Direct
Seeing her looking worried, Shu Yu really wanted to offer to help, since this person was most likely her great-aunt. Her grandmother was concerned about her, so she certainly couldn't just stand by and watch her worry.
Before things come to a conclusion, Shu Yu still wanted to carefully understand Fang's mother-in-law's situation.
Therefore, she comforted Granny Fang, saying, "It's alright, didn't I tell you? All the constables in the yamen have been arrested, and there's a serious shortage of manpower there. Yuan Gui will be helping out there these few days. Putting aside everything else, there will be enough for food and labor."
Grandma Fang was taken aback. "You mean Ah Gui is working at the yamen now?"
"Of course, he worked very hard."
Grandma Fang perked up, "That boy, that boy is quite clever." But she quickly frowned again, "But he has injuries, what if the wounds reopen?"
"Didn't you say he's very clever? He definitely wouldn't let himself get hurt again."
Grandma Fang nodded absentmindedly, "That's right. Then, I'll go to the kitchen and make something to eat and take it to him. That boy doesn't know how to take care of himself. He didn't come back yesterday. I wonder if he's hungry."
As she spoke, she quickly got up and went to the kitchen to get busy.
Shu Yu stood behind her, opened her mouth, but could only shake her head helplessly in the end.
Once things stabilized here, she thought she should take a trip to Granny Fang's village.
Grandma Fang quickly came out with her basket. Shu Yu noticed that she looked quite similar to her own grandmother in her hurried manner.
She shook her head and went inside to see Uncle Meng.
Uncle Meng now sleeps more. When he occasionally wakes up, he just eats a meal, says a few words, and then goes back to sleep.
But he is indeed slowly getting better.
Ying Xi stood to the side and asked in a low voice, "Miss, were the injuries on Second Master Meng's body all caused by Jiang Kuanyu?"
That seemingly gentle and kind-hearted gentleman, who was exceptionally patient with children, was actually so ruthless?
Shu Yu hummed in agreement. It wasn't just Ying Xi who misjudged; hadn't she misjudged as well?
The two exchanged a few words in hushed tones, and Uncle Meng, lying on the hospital bed, slowly opened his eyes.
Shu Yu saw it immediately and hurriedly said, "Uncle, you're awake? Dr. Mi and the others have all gone out. Are you hungry? I'll go to the kitchen and get you something to eat."
Ying Xi spoke first, "I'll go." Then he ran off.
Uncle Meng smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Shu Yu helped him sit up and slowly lean against the headboard. "Is Uncle feeling any better?"
"I'm much better now. In a few days I'll be jumping around again."
Shu Yu laughed, but after a few laughs, she noticed that Uncle Meng's expression had become somewhat dejected. She asked in a low voice, "Uncle, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm fine, I'm just..." He hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Shu Yu, "Shu Yu, tell your uncle, have you seen, have you seen Uncle Tao, how is he...?"
He had asked Meng Qi this question when he woke up earlier.
Meng Qi had never been down the secret passage or into the black market, so he didn't know anything about it. He only said that his uncle and the others had rescued all the young masters in the black market, but they hadn't seen his uncle there.
So either the person is still on the black market, or...
Shu Yu hesitated, unsure whether she should tell him, but Uncle Meng looked straight at her and said, "Go ahead and tell me, I'm prepared."
Shu Yu: "He's dead."
