Shu Yu didn’t take Zhou Tiedong back to the escort agency, but brought him to the Mi Family’s dical clinic.
Although the wounds on his body had been given simple treatnt, he still needed professional care afterward. The Mi Family’s dical clinic had doctors and pharmacists who could take good care of him.
Then Shu Yu also left Lu Sanzhu behind.
The latter looked bewildered, "..." Why did he have to stay here?
Shu Yu solemnly said to Lu Sanzhu, "Third Uncle, Zhou Tiedong is the key witness we need to deal with Chen Bing, and you were the one who discovered this witness, which holds a very special significance for you. You must keep a close eye on him, understand?"
What special significance, exactly? Where is the special significance?
Lu Sanzhu glared at her resentfully, yet in the end, Shu Yu rcilessly left him at the dical clinic, watching helplessly as she returned with Ying Xi.
Night had completely fallen, and Shu Yu returned to the escort agency, first going to the old lady’s place to explain the situation.
As she was coming out, she ran into ng Han, who whispered to Shu Yu, "This morning, a child ca by saying that Chen He’s back from the Chen Family."
Shu Yu nodded understandingly, "I got it."
Knowing that the Chen Family wasn’t in the county town, Shu Yu had found a child around ten years old near their place and gave him a few copper coins, having him keep an eye on the Chen Family. When soone from the Chen Family ca back, he would co to the escort agency and report it to her.
It seed as soon as Chen He returned in the morning, the kid had co by.
Little did she know that when Shu Yu and the others returned to the city in the afternoon, they would run into that scene at the Chen Family’s general store.
Shu Yu had it all in mind and went back to her room to rest, knowing there was a tough battle ahead, and she needed to conserve her energy.
The next day, early in the morning, Ah Gui took Granny Fang into the city. After dropping her off at the escort agency, he left behind the two processed hides and then went off to sell the prey he brought.
The old lady was excited when she saw Granny Fang, grabbing her enthusiastically, "Ah Xia, do you know who we saw when we returned yesterday? Chen He from the Chen Family, the son of that Chen Bing. That rascal is just like his father, good-for-nothings, both trying to take advantage of our staff. We’ve already decided to go to the prefecture later and deal with Chen Bing."
Granny Fang was montarily taken aback at the ntion of the Chen Family, then she looked up and asked in surprise, "Deal with him?"
The old lady nodded forcefully, "Of course we have to deal with him. Don’t we have to collect the debts from back then? My own sister was bullied by him like that; if I don’t make him pay, I won’t be called Fang."
Granny Fang’s grip on the old lady’s hand instinctively tightened. Although more than thirty years had passed, so wounds still felt as if they had happened just yesterday.
Over these years, it’s not that she hasn’t felt resentnt. Sotis in the middle of the night, she’d dream of stabbing Chen Bing with a knife several tis. She admitted that she couldn’t let go of what happened back then, that she bore grudges and deeply desired revenge.
But she also knew her own limitations. How could an old lady with no support go up against soone? She didn’t want to end up costing her life and dragging others down with her.
Now, is there finally a chance?
But what should be done?
"Beat him up?"
The old lady waved her hand, "Is beating him up enough? That’s too easy on him. Yu said she has a way. You don’t know, ever since Yu learned about your past, she’s been preparing to get justice for you. Unfortunately, Chen Bing has been staying in the prefecture and hasn’t co back, leaving no opportunity to make a move."
