Chapter 1,779 Catch up with Yuan Gui and the Other Two
Shu Yu asked, "When did you leave?"
"I packed my bags and left early in the morning. Yuan Gui accompanied her."
Shu Yu nodded, "I understand, thank you for letting me know."
She took Ying Xi out of the county government office and returned to the escort office. Then she asked Ying Xi to prepare the carriage and go directly to Granny Fang's village to visit.
She thought that she originally wanted to ask people in the village about Granny Fang, so she might as well take a look now that she had time.
Shu Yu said hello to Meng Pei and took Ying Xi straight to the city gate.
Although the city gate is now open, there are very few people leaving the city. Everyone is still a little worried, fearing that there are still lone bandits running around outside the city.
Only people like Granny Fang who were unexpectedly trapped in the city but whose family was outside the city would rush to leave as soon as the city gate opened.
Therefore, Shu and Yu drove the carriage out of the city gate for a long way, and saw no one on the official road.
Not only do people inside the city dare not come out, but people outside the city don't go out much either.
Shu Yu inquired from Yuan Gui that the village where Granny Fang and the others lived was fifteen miles away. It was still quite far to walk, at least it would take more than an hour.
But Granny Fang and the others left early, so they were probably all gone by now.
Thinking of this, Shu Yu couldn't help but speed up.
Unexpectedly, when I was halfway there, I saw two figures rushing forward in front of me.
A man and a woman, an old man and a young man, their silhouettes from the back... are not generally familiar.
Ying Xi also recognized them, "It's Granny Fang and Yuan Gui. It's strange, how did they end up here?"
Hearing the sound of horse hooves coming from behind, Yuan Gui didn't have time to turn around, so he quickly helped Granny Fang walk to the roadside, trying to make way for the people behind her.
Unexpectedly, the carriage behind them slowed down and even stopped slowly beside them.
Yuan Gui looked up and was stunned when he saw Shu Yu, "Lu Xiangjun?"
Granny Fang also raised her head and was a little surprised when she saw Shu Yu. When she heard Yuan Gui's name, she grabbed his hand with suspicion, "You, what did you call Miss Lu just now?"
Yuan Gui was stunned, and Shu Yu also blinked.
The two looked at each other, and then suddenly realized, yes, they seemed to have never mentioned her identity in front of Granny Fang.
At first, when Meng Qi introduced her to Dr. Mi and Granny Fang, he called her Miss Lu.
Later, Shu Yu spoke to Yuan Gui when Granny Fang was not around.
Then, Granny Fang went to the county government office, and the two parties never met again.
Yuan Gui quickly explained to Granny Fang, "This is Miss Lu, a Xiangjun personally granted by the late emperor. The heating pack I told you was invented by Lu Xiangjun, and he was rewarded for his talent. "
Talent?
The corner of Shu Yu's mouth twitched, but it seemed right to say that, she was indeed full of talents.
After hearing this, Granny Fang finally understood, and looked at Shu Yu with reverence in her eyes. Before, she would have been a little cautious when meeting people of this status, but now that she has been working in the county government for several days and has met Xia Yi and the deputy general, Granny Fang is much calmer.
But he was still a little nervous when he spoke, "Lu, Lu Xiangjun, I was not very polite earlier, please don't argue with me."
"Grandma Fang, there's no need to be so polite. Haven't we made pancakes and cooked rice together? We've fought side by side. Just treat me like a junior."
Granny Fang still wanted to be polite, so Yuan Gui took the lead and asked, "Where are Mr. Lu Xiang going?"
