This time, Mrs. Ke also agreed with Zhuang Zhenmeng's approach, because her daughter had finally lived a life of wealth and glory, and if the old man interfered, Zhuang Zhenmeng would really have nothing.
Ke pulled Old Man Shu and asked, "Old man, what are you doing?"
"What are you doing? Of course I'm going to find Zhuang Tianming and ask him clearly!"
"Ask, ask, ask, what's there to ask? Guozhong is dead, this is a fact that cannot be changed. Now you are so impulsive and want to run to the Zhuang family. If you anger Zhuang Tianming, what will you do with our daughter? You are such a brainless old man!"
“…”
After being complained by Mrs. Ke, Old Man Shu dared not say anything.
After taking a look at his daughter, Old Man Shu felt that what Mrs. Ke said was actually right. His daughter finally had a good life now, and if he talked too much, it would be more trouble than it was worth.
With a deep sigh, Old Man Shu said, "Zhen Meng, your mother and I have come to the capital to find you. We've gone through so much hardship. Not only were we kidnapped by bandits, but we were completely robbed. But why did we risk our lives to come to the capital to find you? We just want an explanation!"
Now that I know you're not indifferent to your brother's affairs, your father can finally relax. Okay... I promise you, I won't go looking for your general father, but your mother and I will need money to return to Guangming Village..."
Zhuang Zhenmeng immediately took out two silver notes with a face value of one hundred taels.
"Dad, I don't have much. Take these banknotes. Since you and my mother have come to the capital, why don't you stay here for a few more days before going back? You can also see the prosperity of the capital."
Ke's face immediately showed joy, but she still asked worriedly: "Daughter, can we really stay here for a few more days?"
Originally, Zhuang Zhenmeng wanted the two of them to leave quickly, but when she thought about not being able to save Shu Guozhong because of her, Zhuang Zhenmeng felt guilty, so she made it up to them.
"It's okay for you to stay in the capital for a few days. Just remember not to go to the General's Mansion to harass me and my father. I'm free these two days. After you finish eating, I'll take you to buy some decent clothes. Look at you, you're really not decent in the way you're dressed."
"Okay, okay, I know my daughter loves us the most."
Mrs. Ke hurriedly scooped up the remaining white rice in the bowl.
Zhuang Zhenmeng thought of Shu Guoyi again. She asked, "You two are out now. What about my brother? Is it okay for you to leave him at home?"
When talking about Shu Guoyi, Mrs. Ke said that she didn't want this son to be fake, but she thought that Shu Guoyi was taken care of by his best friend Xiaowei, and she and old man Shu had finally come to the capital, it would be a pity not to go for a walk.
Mrs. Ke patted her chest and said, "It's okay. Your brother is doing well at home alone. I also gave him one or two taels of silver, which is definitely enough for him to last a month. Besides, he has his brother Xiaowei to take care of him. Your brother is such a big man, you don't have to worry about him."
"Yeah?"
Zhuang Zhenmeng shrugged her shoulders. Mrs. Ke said that Shu Guoyi would be fine, so he should be fine. But this kid is timid. He says he is afraid of dirty things at night. I wonder if he will collapse when he is alone at home?
Forget it. Anyway, it’s not certain whether Shu Guoyi will be sleeping at home tonight. Maybe he will really go to Xiaowei’s house?
Thinking of this, Zhuang Zhenmeng finally felt relieved.
