Shu Yu ca back to her senses and shook her head with a smile, "No, Aunt He’s cooking is very good."
After saying this, she rembered that Aunt He was a local, so she couldn’t help but ask, "Auntie, when I passed by the agency earlier, I noticed many people selling themselves there. Has sothing happened in Changjin Prefecture?"
Aunt He was taken aback and shook her head, "No, aside from the recent court examination, nothing major has happened in the prefecture. Miss, don’t find it strange; at places like the agency, it’s common for many people to sell their children for a al."
Shu Yu knew this, but the number of people was simply too many.
Her family was in Dongan Province, and she had been to the capital, Huajiang Prefecture, Shangyang Prefecture, and Linzhang Prefecture. Except for Shangyang and Linzhang where she only stayed a night, she had stayed in the other three places for a few days or for so ti.
Coincidentally, she had visited the agencies in these three places.
But none of the agencies in these three places were as exaggerated as the one in Changjin Prefecture.
Changjin Prefecture, there was nothing particularly special about it.
Shu Yu couldn’t figure it out, but since it didn’t concern her much, she just felt it was strange and temporarily stopped considering opening a shop here and didn’t pay much more attention.
However, the next morning, she went out for a walk again and couldn’t help but visit the agency.
The number of people going in and out of the agency was slightly fewer compared to the previous day, but still more than she imagined.
Shu Yu returned ho once again with confusion.
By evening, ng Yunzheng had returned.
To Shu Yu’s surprise, ng Han had co along as well.
ng Han was evidently very happy; she rushed to Shu Yu as soon as she got off the carriage and said excitedly, "Sister Shuyu, I’m going to Dongan Province with you all."
Shu Yu blinked, looking puzzled at her, then at ng Yunzheng.
The latter didn’t seem very pleased, "We t on the way."
ng Han pulled Shu Yu’s hand pitifully, saying, "Sister Shuyu, don’t send away, I’m holess now. You don’t know, this morning Tao Qin provoked again, and I couldn’t hold back and hit her, then I ran away."
It was her first ti hitting Tao Qin, and she was both excited and slightly worried, afraid that her mother and uncle would catch her and scold her, so she packed her things and ran away imdiately after.
But she didn’t know many people; most of her family and relatives were in Chenggu County. The only people she could turn to were her eldest uncle and older cousin.
So, she carried her luggage and waited for her older cousin at the city gate. However, don’t be fooled by his elegant and polite appearance; his heart was really ruthless, he pretended not to see her and just walked away.
ng Han nearly vomited blood, but since he had walked away, she couldn’t go back. Driven by sheer will, she had to follow to the prefecture.
She made her way out of the city gates towards the prefecture. It didn’t matter, if her cousin wouldn’t take her, she’d find Sister Shuyu.
However, ng Han was young and inexperienced in traveling alone, quickly drawing attention from others.
On the road, soone directly tried to kidnap her, but ng Han had decent skills, and didn’t let them succeed.
Still, there were too many of them, and ng Han couldn’t hold them off. Just as she was about to be taken, ng Yunzheng appeared and managed to pick up ng Han.
Shu Yu looked at ng Han, no wonder she looked so disheveled as if she had rolled on the ground when she got down.
She quickly asked Aunt He to help heat so water so ng Han could take a bath first.
Once ng Han was in the room, she asked ng Yunzheng, "What happened?"
