"What do you an by that?" Shu Yu tilted her head and asked.
Cheng Xian rubbed his temples, "Old Master Cheng has so distant relation with the Lord, but the connection is quite remote. The Lord, being a governor now, naturally has plenty of people around him wanting to ride his coattails. Old Master Cheng wants to seize opportunities but hasn’t found the right one yet."
But this ti, Cheng Xian’s arrival made Old Master Cheng see a glimr of hope.
When Old Master Cheng first t him, he subtly hinted that he wanted him to take Cheng Family’s two bastards to the southwest, to seek a position by Lord Cheng’s side, even if it’s just running errands, suggesting that using one’s own people is convenient and reassuring.
But Cheng Xian refused him, thinking that Old Master Cheng had given up. Who would have thought he’d take advantage of today’s situation to send his son and daughter directly southwest? Sending them away right in front of him makes it hard for Cheng Xian or Lord Cheng to pretend they don’t know.
This was Cheng Family’s way of apologizing to Shu Yu, showing ’sincerity’, even though Shu Yu didn’t need it. However, if Cheng Xian obstructed this, it wouldn’t be appropriate either.
In such an open manner, if the Cheng Wen siblings arrive in the southwest later and visit Lord Cheng under the pretext of visiting family elders, or if they face any trouble and want to seek Lord Cheng’s help, could Lord Cheng possibly act as if he doesn’t know them?
With this back-and-forth, Old Master Cheng’s objective is achieved.
Shu Yu was montarily stunned upon hearing this, "So my visit this ti actually gave Old Master Cheng this opportunity, helped him a bit? Why do I feel like coughing up blood?"
"No, it’s more like I dragged you into this, burdened you with this ss. Even if you hadn’t co today, with Old Master Cheng’s intentions, he would have thought of other ways."
Unfortunately, Cheng Xian’s visit to Changjin Prefecture this ti required him to seek help from Old Master Cheng, so he had no choice but to swallow this bitter pill.
Shu Yu, for a mont, didn’t know what to say.
Her goals were achieved, Old Master Cheng’s goals were also achieved, and the only one seemingly hurt was Cheng Xian’s goals also being t.
"Anyway, take care," Shu Yu said heavily to him, "If you need any help while you’re in Changjin Prefecture, you can co to . I live on Fuyuan Street; I opened a Lu’s Shop over there, right at the corner, easy to find."
"Alright."
Shu Yu bid farewell to Cheng Xian and then returned with Ying Xi.
As for that troubleso person, Xia Yan was asked to take him away and deal with the situation.
It was already late when Shu Yu returned to the courtyard, where Ms. Tao and ng Han were talking.
Upon seeing her, Ms. Tao was surprised, "Yu, where have you been? How co you’re back only now?"
"I went to the Cheng Family."
The Cheng Family? Ms. Tao and ng Han exchanged bewildered glances.
Ying Xi, standing nearby, explained the situation, it was necessary to clarify things with them, letting them ntally prepare for it.
Ms. Tao, upon hearing, imdiately broke out in a cold sweat, "That Miss Cheng is too arrogant, what about the marriage proposal...?"
"This matter was Miss Cheng’s impulsive decision, unrelated to the proposal. However, she heard it from Gan Rui’s second sister. She has a good relationship with the second sister from the Gan Family, so it’s better to explain it to them another day."
Ms. Tao nodded upon hearing this, "Indeed, the Gan Family has to give us an explanation for this matter, how did they attract such a formidable lady here?"
Yet, there was no need for Shu Yu and the others to seek the Gan Family, because early the next morning, Ms. Liao ca to the door with Gan Yujing, bearing gifts as an apology.
As soon as they entered, Ms. Liao repeatedly apologized.
