Chapter 298: They Are Not Here
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The black market was just outside Jiangyuan County. The exact location was unknown, but it should be someone’s manor.
The next market opening was three days later.
The jade plate was indeed a token. When one arrived at the black market and showed the jade plate, someone would naturally take them to the manor. If there was no one to lead the way, it was easy for something to happen. There was some hidden trap.
Knowing these points, Shu Yu knew what to do. Three days later, she would wait outside the city and follow those who might go to the black market, such as… the Eldest Young Master of the Ding family, Ding Wen.
Shu Yu had just thought of Ding Wen when the Eldest Young Master sent someone to pa.s.s the message.
Xiao Yun came in and said, “The Eldest Young Master told you not to worry,
Boss Lu. Young Master Zhang and the others won’t dare to cause trouble for Boss Lu anymore.”
Shu Yu smiled and said, “It seems that the Eldest Young Master has helped me resolve this matter. I’m relieved.”
However, she was glad she acted quickly and had already found out about the black market. Otherwise, she could not use this matter to pretend to be helpless and get information from Ding Yuehua.
After the clothes were delivered and she had asked all the questions she needed, Shu Yu stood up and said goodbye.
After leaving the Ding family, she went straight back to Liufang Alley.
Shu Yu stopped and turned to look at the Meng family’s courtyard when she pa.s.sed by the Meng family’s door.
The courtyard door was locked. Since she said that Master Dongqing might have gone to the southwest, Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi left the next day. The entrance of the courtyard had been closed.
Shu Yu thought that they should have gone to find Master Dongqing, right? She also hoped that Meng Yunzheng could see her as soon as possible. She had many doubts in her heart and wanted to ask her master.
After all, they had known each other for a long time, yet he didn’t tell her they were leaving.
Shu Yu felt a little uncomfortable. She secretly snorted and walked in the direction of home.
As soon as she lifted her foot, the door to the next courtyard opened.
A woman raised her head and greeted Shu Yu when she saw her. “Miss Lu, are you looking for that boy?”
“Oh, no. I just happened to pa.s.s by and saw that their courtyard door was locked. I was curious about where they went.”
The woman smiled and said, “Before he left, Meng asked us to help him look after his house. He seemed to have heard about a very powerful doctor. He visited the doctor with Zhao and might return in a few days. Didn’t your grandma tell you? I just told her yesterday.”
The old lady had visited the Meng family several times, so the neighbors were naturally curious about her relations.h.i.+p with the Meng family.
The old lady did not hide anything. She only said that before Zhao Xi became silly, he saved the lives of her son and granddaughter. Now that they were living close to each other, she would come over to help if there was anything inconvenient for the two young men.
Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi were both disabled people. Everyone in Liufang Alley knew about them. It was just that the two of them had good looks. For the sake of their looks, most people had a sympathetic att.i.tude toward their encounter.
Moreover, Meng Yunzheng was exceptionally gentle when he smiled. He looked like a good-tempered person, so the neighbors of Liufang Alley would help them if they could.
The old lady’s behavior was not unexpected. The other party was their family’s savior, so it was normal for the two families to have dealings.
As for Shu Yu, she had entered and exited the Meng family’s residence a few times in secret. No one had seen her, so the neighbors of Liufang Alley did not overthink it.
Shu Yu was a little surprised after hearing the woman’s words. She thought that Meng Yunzheng and the others had left Jiangyuan County for the southwest and would not return. She did not expect they would ask the neighbor to help look after the courtyard.. Were they planning to come back?
