It wasn’t an elegant and dignified behavior, but in Meng Yunzheng’s eyes, he felt particularly appetizing.
He had already eaten, but every time he brought food to Shu Yu at night, he would feel hungry when he saw her eat. It was inevitable that he would add a midnight snack when he went back.
It had only been a few days, but he felt that he had gained some weight.
It seemed that he would have to postpone his dinner so that he would not have to eat four meals.
Shu Yu still didn’t know that she had the potential to be a food broadcaster. Seeing that Meng Yunzheng didn’t say anything, she looked up at him and asked hesitantly, “Vegetables…Isn’t it easy?”
Meng Yunzheng shook his head. “Of course not. It was my negligence. I only thought that you didn’t eat well during the day and wanted more oil at night. How about this, what do you want to eat? Tell me in advance the night before, and I’ll send it to you tomorrow night.”
Shu Yu waved her hand. “No need, no need. We’re already on the way. It’s not easy to get something to eat. We don’t have the conditions to order food. Just do whatever’s convenient.”
Meng Yunzheng thought about it and nodded.
Shu Yu lowered her head and ate the pork knuckle with soy sauce again. After eating, she quickly took some water to rinse her mouth, wiped her hands and mouth clean, and fanned herself.
Then, she said goodbye to Meng Yunzheng and returned to her room to sleep comfortably.
The next day, Shu Yu was much more energetic than the others.
The exiled team left the courier station. No one knew that on the same night, a man arrived at the courier station at full speed. As soon as he entered the courier station, he asked about the Shu family’s exiled team.
When he heard that they had left early in the morning, the man sighed in annoyance and pressed the envelope on his chest.
This person was the one who sent Xiang Weinan to deliver a letter to Shu Yu. Shu Yu and the others walked, but this person rode a horse. Although he had set off a few days late, he quickly caught up.
From the looks of it, it should be delivered tomorrow, no later than the day after tomorrow. In any case, he would meet her before the Lu family.
When Miss Lu read the letter, she was mentally prepared.
The man ate and rested for the night.
However, no one knew which would come first, the day after tomorrow or an accident.
When that person woke up the next day, the sky was hazy, and huge raindrops were falling on the ground.
However, this rain was nothing to him. He put on his straw raincoat and led his horse out of the relay station.
However, he did not expect a carriage to rush in to take shelter from the rain. It was a little fast and rushed straight at him.
The carriage did not hit him, but the horse beside him was shocked and kicked him.
The man fell to the ground with a look of despair. He was carried in by the owner of the carriage and the people from the courier station. Then, he fell unconscious for two days.
By the time he wanted to catch up with the exiled team again, it was already three or four days later.
Compared to him, the Lu family had it much smoother.
Before Lu Erbai set off, he bought another mule carriage.
If the four adults and two children were to travel slowly in a light cart, one mule carriage would be enough.
But now, they were carrying a lot of luggage, food, and clothing for the journey, and things were prepared for Shu Yu.
One mule carriage was simply not enough, so he gritted his teeth and bought another.
There were two mule carriages, but Lu Erbai was the only one who knew how to drive them, and he had a leg problem.
Fortunately, there were two men and one woman escorts with them.
