Chapter 1,782 Yuan Gui Is Shocked
Yuan Gui raised his hand to greet them. Someone who was familiar with him poked his head out of the courtyard wall and asked him in a low voice, "Are you all back? Are you okay? I heard that there is a lot of trouble in the county and there are mountains in our village." The thief ran over, but fortunately the general from the imperial court laid a trap at the entrance of the village in advance, so we didn't suffer."
"Yuan Gui, are you coming back from the county seat? You didn't encounter any danger along the way." Someone took the lead, and villagers on both sides of the road poked their heads out of the courtyard wall one after another.
Yuan Gui replied loudly as he walked forward, "It's okay. Those rebels have been caught. The gate of the county town has been opened, and you can come in and out at any time. Don't worry, everyone. I have to go home first, and I'll follow you later." You guys are chatting.”
Everyone wanted to ask more questions, but when they saw Shu Yu sitting in the carriage, they all closed their mouths and just looked at them curiously.
When the carriage stopped at the door of Granny Fang's house, Yuan Gui finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Granny Fang was helped down, and she took out the key and opened the courtyard door. It was deserted inside, and there were still a few piles of snow in the corner that hadn't had time to melt.
Fortunately, their roof had been repaired by Yuan Gui earlier, so it was not damaged by the snow.
Granny Fang said to Yuan Gui, "Please lead Lu Xiangjun around the village. I'll clean up the house first."
Yuan Gui originally wanted to help, but after thinking about it, he agreed. He tied the carriage aside and said to Shu Yu, "Mr. Lu Xiang, please come this way."
Shu Yu glanced at Yuan Gui and nodded in agreement. Ying Xi followed behind, walking slowly.
After walking a few steps, Yuan Gui asked hesitantly, "Lu Xiangjun, you... you seem to be very curious about my mother-in-law? Not only this time, you also asked me about it last time at the medical clinic. "
"Yeah." Shu Yu didn't shy away from it.
Yuan Gui hesitated again and again, risking offending her and said, "But Mr. Lu Xiang, my mother-in-law doesn't want to talk about what happened back then. If it's possible, can you not ask?"
Shu Yu sighed, "I don't want to ask, but don't I have a reason for this?"
"What's the reason?"
"Mother Fang may be a long-lost relative of my family."
Yuan Gui's legs suddenly stopped and he looked at her in astonishment, "Lu Xiangjun, what did you say? Relatives?"
"Well, judging from the current information, it's almost certain. It's just that Granny Fang has been very secretive about what happened back then. I don't understand why she doesn't want to mention it. She also said that she has no relatives in her hometown. I don't know what she thinks about it now. What are our thoughts and attitudes, so I want to ask her first and then explain it clearly to her."
But Granny Fang didn't want to mention it. What could Shu Yu do?
"I always feel that Granny Fang has some misunderstanding about her hometown. "
Yuan Gui opened his mouth, he never thought it would be such a reason.
But then he felt a little disappointed. He and Granny Fang had been dependent on each other for more than a year. During this year, he had completely regarded her as his own relative.
But now, her mother-in-law's real relatives came to her door, and it was Lu Xiangjun. Yuan Gui thought that maybe his fate with her mother-in-law had ended here.
He really wanted to treat his mother-in-law as his grandma and elder, but Grandma Fang's life was too hard. If she could get to know Lu Xiangjun and the others, her life in the future would definitely not be too difficult.
He can't be too selfish.
Yuan Gui took a deep breath, "I don't know what my mother-in-law has been through these years, but she definitely misses her relatives in her hometown. If Lu Xiangjun really wants to know, you can ask someone."
