Shu Yu stayed at the city tower for the next half-day, until Inspector Yin ca to relieve her shift, and she dragged her tired body back to the ng family escort agency.
After she returned to her room and took a nap, she woke up to Xia Yan running over and saying, "Second Young Lady, Sanzhu has been caught, and those rebels have all been captured by General Huang."
Shu Yu was delighted, "Really?"
"Yes." Xia Yan nodded repeatedly, "General Huang sent soone over to say that the Miss must have been frightened. Yesterday, Sanzhu wanted to fight desperately, leading those rebels to target the villages outside the city. Fortunately, General Huang was prepared and had already arranged for his people to guard them. However, due to this, so places were left unguarded, allowing a small group of rebels to make their way here."
The rebel assault on the village, apart from the traps dug spontaneously by the villagers, had no other obstacles.
The county town, with its walls and closed gates, was impenetrable unless attacked by a large force.
Therefore, General Huang prioritized nearby villages first.
Now that everyone has been captured, once the follow-up issues are resolved, Chenggu County can return to normal traffic.
Shu Yu felt relieved and slowly washed and ate.
When she arrived at the flower hall, she happened to see Ms. Tao. The latter was walking in a daze and almost bumped into her.
Shu Yu quickly stepped aside to avoid her and, after steadying herself, looked at her again. Ms. Tao finally ca back to her senses, but her reaction seed a bit slow. She nodded at Shu Yu and then continued walking forward.
Shu Yu blinked and asked Ying Xi beside her, "What happened?"
Ying Xi shook her head; she had been with Shu Yu all the ti and truly didn’t know what happened to Ms. Tao.
Just then, ng Han ran over. Shu Yu stopped her, glanced in the direction of Ms. Tao, and frowned, "What’s going on? You went to the Tao Family yesterday to handle Tao Feili’s funeral arrangent, right? What happened?"
Speaking of this, ng Han was still very angry, "We went to offer incense to Uncle yesterday, but when we arrived at the Tao Family, Aunt kept the door shut and wouldn’t let us in. Neighbors were pointing fingers at us, and we didn’t know what rumors Aunt had been spreading these past few days, making everyone curse our family for being heartless. When Lu Wu Brother and the others carried Uncle’s body back, Aunt finally opened the door. We wanted to pay our respects to Uncle, but Aunt cried and scread, driving us out. We had anticipated this and weren’t surprised. Who knew that my ten-year-old cousin suddenly rushed out with a pair of scissors, saying he wanted Mother to be buried with Uncle."
At that mont, everyone was stunned, but the Tao family cousin didn’t care. He even confidently said that Ms. Tao should be buried with Tao Feili. Because she was his sister, she had to take care of his father while alive, and now that his father was dead, Ms. Tao should of course accompany him below and take care of him.
Many people ca to the Tao Family at that ti, and the neighbors were all shocked to hear this.
Even Ms. Tao was in disbelief. ng Qi directly knocked the scissors out of the Tao family cousin’s hand, scolded him a few tis, and warned him not to speak recklessly.
The Tao family cousin, in pain from being hit and scolded, began crying and shouting, cursing ng Qi and ng Han; however, he cursed the most and harshest at Ms. Tao, who always loved him the most.
He said his parents told him that Ms. Tao should serve the Tao Family tirelessly. That Ms. Tao was incompetent, as she still couldn’t control all the family assets. That Ms. Tao was a big fool, who didn’t love her own daughter, yet was as good as being the real parent to her niece and nephew. He even said he would coax Ms. Tao in the future to make her give the entire ng family to the Tao Family, all for Tao Feili.
