Chapter 216: Being followed and led to the mountains outside the city
The shopkeeper was surprised. Didn't Xiao Wuzi say that this young man was also from the Lu family? How could his last name be Xie?
He was puzzled but didn't show it on his face. He said respectfully, "This old servant greets Miss Huanzhu."
Xie Huanzhu waved her hands embarrassedly, "Get up quickly, get up quickly."
After the shopkeeper stood up, he continued, "Here are all the fruit drinks and snacks from our Tanxianglou."
"Ms. Lu Yu and Miss Huan Zhu are visiting our Tan Xiang Lou for the first time, so please make sure to enjoy the food."
The two sisters smacked their lips in amazement. If they finished eating this, their stomachs would burst, not to mention the barbecue that would be available later.
In the end, the two of them only ate a few snacks and a glass of fruit drink, and the rest was all put into the space by Lu Yu.
The barbecue was served, sprinkled with a lot of chili peppers. Xie Huanzhu ate it so happily that she couldn't stop.
Lu Yu ate a chicken wing, which tasted worse than the one in his distant memory, probably because the seasoning was incomplete.
Even though she thought the taste was average, she still ate a lot, bite after bite, one stick after another.
I just felt a little dazed the whole time.
Her thoughts drifted back to the modern era. As a poor person, she couldn't afford barbecue. The money from a chicken wing was enough for her to buy vegetables and eat them frugally for two days.
Every time she passed by a barbecue stall, she would run past it quickly because she was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and would spend lavishly, and then she would probably go hungry for the rest of the day.
The only time she had a barbecue was on her 20th birthday, when she bought herself a grilled chicken leg.
I can't forget that taste even now.
I can’t remember how I felt at that time, but I remember that I finished eating while crying.
She had a lot of strength but couldn't support herself. She didn't know why she was so unlucky and hated by so many people.
Some people would be kind enough to feed stray dogs and cats when they saw them, but no one would lend a hand to her no matter what happened.
They may even avoid you like the plague and talk behind your back.
Many times when she was in despair, she wanted to take revenge on society, but she failed to make up her mind every time because she wanted to live.
Xie Huanzhu stood beside Lu Yu at a loss, watching her eat and cry.
My sister must have been thinking about something bad, but I didn’t know what she was thinking about, so I couldn’t comfort her at all.
However, my sister doesn't emit any dark energy, which is a good thing.
The plate was empty, Lu Yu had grabbed nothing, so Xie Huanzhu moved a plate that was farther away over.
A sound was made when it moved. Lu Yu came back to his senses and looked at Xie Huanzhu who was anxious, with an inexplicable expression.
I raised my hand and touched my face; it was wet.
It turned out that she was crying and scared Huanzhu.
He took out a pack of tissues from the space, took out one and wiped his face, grinning, "The barbecue was delicious, I was so happy that I cried."
Xie Huanzhu couldn't hold back any longer, burst into tears and threw herself into her arms.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. Her sister clearly said that they were tears of happiness, but she just felt sad.
Lu Yu hugged her and patted her back, again and again.
One was crying, the other was comforting silently.
After an unknown amount of time, the whimpering sound stopped. The two sisters, one raising her head and the other lowering her head, looked at each other and finally smiled at each other.
If you have emotions, just vent them. After Xie Huanzhu cried for a while, she felt light-hearted both physically and mentally.
"Sister, where else are we going?"
After leaving Tanxianglou, Xie Huanzhu kept holding Lu Yu's hand, as if she was afraid that she would run away.
Looking at the street with fewer people, she tilted her head and asked her.
Lu Yu scanned with his spiritual sense, stayed at a corner for a second longer, and raised the corners of his mouth.
"Let's just take a walk and stretch our muscles."
"Okay." Xie Huanzhu agreed without thinking.
Lu Yu took her for a seemingly aimless stroll, but in fact they were walking quietly towards the suburbs. Not daring to be too obvious, they deliberately made a detour.
She was afraid of scaring away those who could stretch their muscles.
At first, that person seemed determined to win, but later on, he seemed a lot more timid.
Probably because he saw them enter the Tanxiang Building, he knew they were members of the Lu family.
So, are you scared?
When we walked to the suburbs, the sky, which was originally sunny, turned into a dark patch.
"Sister, it's going to rain heavily."
"Ah."
"Sister, what are we doing here?"
"Digging wild vegetables."
Xie Huanzhu was stunned: "... Digging wild vegetables?"
"I lied to you."
Xie Huanzhu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were not really digging wild vegetables, as she didn't recognize them.
"So what are we doing here?"
"Shh!" Lu Yu put his index finger on his lips and looked back.
Xie Huanzhu saw her movements, walked past her calmly and glanced behind her.
Six people were walking towards them.
"Sister, are they coming to bully us?"
"Yeah." Lu Yu took her hand and continued walking. After all, it was not a good idea to kill someone here. It was too empty and it would not be good if someone saw them.
She would not go out of her way to clean out the termites in Gunzhou City, but if they came to her door, she would never show mercy.
"Wow, it's so cool!" The two of them unknowingly walked to a stream in the mountains. As soon as they arrived there, they felt a cool breeze, and Xie Huanzhu exclaimed.
I took off my shoes and went into the water.
As the water touched her, a cool feeling spread throughout her body, and Xie Huanzhu felt completely intoxicated.
Lu Yu looked at the six people fifty meters away with his spiritual sense, impatience in his eyes. They kept following him without taking any action. What on earth did they want to do?
Just when Lu Yu was puzzled, a woman who followed him suddenly looked in one direction with surprise.
It turned out that they were waiting for help. Four men with knives walked towards them. Judging from their steps, they were experts.
But that's for others, to her it's just a piece of trash.
"Huanzhu, you just chill out here, I'm going to go clean up some scum."
Lu Yu gave these instructions and headed towards the group of people.
"Four ghosts, you are finally here, otherwise the big stuff would have escaped."
Mrs. Liang originally thought that Lu Yu and Xie Huanzhu were just ordinary ladies from wealthy families, and she just wanted to rob them of their money.
But later, when I saw the scene at the entrance of Tanxianglou, I realized that they were members of the Lu family. I was scared and excited at the same time.
Now that the State of Lu has openly rebelled and is in opposition to the new emperor, she thought it would be better to do something big.
I was originally thinking of making plans slowly, but who would have thought that these two people would actually walk out of the city and come to the mountains.
She couldn't miss this great opportunity, so she contacted these four people who were called ghosts.
She pointed in the direction of Lu Yu with excitement, "Those two are the daughters of the Lu family. If we catch them and hand them over to the new emperor, we will soar to the sky."
A group of people squatting there looked at the leisurely-walking woman with shining eyes. As long as they caught her, they would be remembered by the emperor.
Maybe you can even get a job as an official.
This is a beautiful thing no matter how you think about it.
Seeing that the woman was about to approach them, the group of people exchanged glances with each other, and finally nodded heavily, and rushed out together and surrounded Lu Yu.
Lu Yu looked at these people with a smile, she just felt that these people were very strange. She had never displayed her martial arts from beginning to end, and people who didn't know her would only regard her as a weak woman.
Is it necessary to make such a big fuss to arrest a weak woman?
