Auntie Yao snorted coldly from behind. “She thinks she’s a nobody. Does she think those officers are easy to talk to? She didn’t even know how she was thrown out later.’
Of course, the guards at the gate were not easy to talk to. They stood there expressionlessly, and none of the surrounding villagers dared to step forward.
When Shu Yu wanted to talk with the officers, the three sisters-in-law still goggled at her.
Shu Yu didn’t care about them, she walked forward of two officers.
The officers frowned and wanted to drive her away at once. Shu Yu asked immediately before they talked, “Hello, may I know whether Hu Li is here?”
Yesterday, Hu Li let her come back. And now she didn’t know whether Hu Li came to the Yuan family.
Those two officers looked at each other and they knew that Hu Li was that much of a trusted subordinate of Lord Xiang. This girl knew him?
The two officers’ complexion softened slightly and one answered softly, “He wasn’t here.’
Hu Li wasn’t here, but another one was here.
Wang Hong just came out of the house, looking at the outside of the yard, and ran to Shu Yu immediately.
“Lady Lu?”
As he came out and spoke, the two officers and others in the Daxu Village were also stunned. They also looked at Shu Yu.
Shu Yu saw Wang Hong and she felt smooth and steady.
When she started the business, Hu Li and Wang Hong replaced Xiang Weinan to present a gift to her.
She met Hu Li many times, but she only met Wang Hong once.
“Brother Wang, I’m so happy that you are here, I want to ask something about my Fourth aunt.” Shu Yu asked.
Wang Hong raised his eyebrow and thought that Hu Li was right. When not an ordinary little girl who was ignorant of the world. She was very knowledgeable about the ways of the world. She even called him brother.
Wang Hong glanced at the villagers outside the door. Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, he frowned and waved his hand. “What are you all standing here for? Let you go, let you go. If you cry and make a fuss again, you’ll affect our work.”
Everyone instantly fell silent and did not dare to speak, especially the three sisters-in-law of the Yuan family who had been crying the loudest just now. They subconsciously shrank their heads and took two steps back.
Wang Hong then said to Shu Yu, “Lady Lu, let’s go over there and talk.”
Shu Yu nodded and followed Wang Hong to the corner outside, where they began to talk in a low voice.
“When I set off in the morning, Hu Li told me that Lady Lu might come here to inquire about Yuan Shan Chuan. So, while the other colleagues brought people back to the office, I stayed here for a while longer. I didn’t expect you to come.”
Shu Yu did not expect this. “Thank you.”
He signed, “We can’t help you much.” After all, they had already received two bottles of wine. As long as they didn’t violate their principles, they would help if they could.
“Lady Lu, I won’t hide it from you. the Yuan family had big trouble this time. Yuan Shan Chuan is involved in a matter that concerns the former county magistrate. I can’t say how serious it will be.”
Shu Yu t s heart skipped a beat. How did Yuan Shan Chuan get involved in the matter of the former county magistrate?
“Then my aunt and the others…”
“Don’t worry about that. If the Lu Corporation didn’t participate in the Yuan Shanchuan incident, their lives can be saved.’
In other words, he could keep her life, but he could not guarantee anything else.
After all, in this era, it was very common for a person to commit a crime and implicate his family..
