When Ke said this, Old Man Shu immediately reacted.
"Old woman, you are carrying a bag, aren't you planning to go to the capital?"
When her heart was touched, Mrs. Ke finally couldn't hold back her tears and cried, "Wow, wow, wow... If I don't go to the capital to find Zhen Meng this time, I won't be able to relieve the anger in my heart!
Old man, Zhenmeng clearly promised us that she would ask her general father for help, but what happened in the end?
In the end, our Guozhong was beheaded, but there was no news about Zhenmeng, and she went to the capital as if nothing had happened. So as a mother, I wanted to see if she would feel at ease with her conscience?
The person who died was her biological elder brother, wuwuwu... wuwuwuwu..."
"Alright, alright, old woman...don't cry yet. I'll accompany you wherever you want to go. I also want to ask this unfilial girl in person if she no longer considers us her parents after recognizing her father as the general."
Speaking of his daughter, it would be a lie for Old Man Shu to say he wasn't angry. If he had known that this would be the outcome, he would have never let his daughter impersonate Shu Jiaying. It seemed that all this was his own fault!
After entering the room and packing their bags, Old Man Shu and Mrs. Ke happened to run into Shu Guoyi coming back from outside.
Shu Guoyi saw that the two of them looked like they were going on a long journey, so he quickly asked, "Dad, Mom, where are you two going?"
"Son, we're going to the capital to look for your sister. We might be gone for ten days or half a month. You should stay home and look after the house by yourself. When your father and I come back, I'll bring you something delicious."
"Ten days or half a month? No, I want to go with you too."
They thought that if Shu Guoyi also went to the capital with them, they would have one more person's expenses. Last time in Fengyun Town, Zhuang Tianming had agreed to pay for their stay at the inn, but after Zhuang Tianming left, there was no further news.
In order to deal with Shu Guozhong's affairs, the old man Shu and his men stayed in the inn for a few more days, and as a result they spent nearly one thousand taels of silver.
If they had known that the inn was so expensive, they should have chosen two ordinary guest rooms so that they wouldn't have to try so hard to get by.
The old man Shu advised: "Guoyi, we are going to the capital to do something this time. It is not convenient for you to come with us. You should wait at home. You should be able to take care of yourself now that you are old enough."
"But I don't want to be alone at home. This house is so big, and my sister-in-law also hanged herself at home. I'm scared to live alone. Mom...can you take me with you? I beg you!"
"this……"
Ke also wanted to take Shu Guoyi with her to the capital so that she could take care of him, but when she thought about her limited funds, she hesitated.
Mrs. Ke could only persuade him like the old man Shu: "Son, be obedient and wait at home first. If you are really too scared, you can go to stay at Xiaowei's house in the same village. I will leave you one or two taels of silver for emergency. This one or two taels of silver will definitely be enough for your food for a month."
"mother……"
"Okay, enough talking. Your father and I have to hurry to the ferry. You better behave yourself at home alone and don't run around, okay?"
"mother……"
Fearing that she would be reluctant to part with Shu Guoyi, Ke hurriedly pulled the old man Shu away.
In the room, Shu Guoyi looked at the empty surroundings. He knew that he didn't have the courage to live in such a gloomy house.
Unable to stay any longer, Shu Guoyi also ran out of the house.
