Chapter 2245 Let’s Take My Mother Out of the City

Shu Yu still enjoyed the royal meal.

While the emperor and Meng Yunzheng were talking, she calmly gathered most of the vegetables into her bowl.

The emperor would occasionally glance at her, and then he would see that Meng Yunzheng was doing two things at once, even picking up food for Shu Yu while discussing things with him.

Shu Yu would also be worried that Meng Yunzheng would only focus on talking and forget to eat. Whenever he ate something delicious, he would put a little bit into his bowl and tug on his sleeve to remind him to take a few bites.

It seemed like the two of them had done this kind of thing many times and were very familiar with it.

The emperor looked at it with a bit of envy.

There are many women around him, from queens to concubines to beauties, there are all kinds of women, but none of them get along like an ordinary couple like Shu Yu.

Forget it, he is a loner and has chosen his own path, so why should he covet the homes of ordinary people?

After Shu Yu finished his dinner, he was led by the eunuch to the harem to meet the queen.

The queen had no interest in Shu Yu, and the other party was leaving tomorrow. Meng Yunzheng had a close relationship with the emperor, so her attitude towards Shu Yu could be described as cordial.

Knowing that they were going to get married when they returned, they were rewarded with an exquisite head and face and a pair of expensive jade bracelets.

When the eunuch followed Shu Yu with these things in his hands and sent her to the front hall to meet Meng Yunzheng, Meng Yunzheng also came out with a bunch of things given by the emperor.

The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

It was getting dark, so Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng hurried home to wash up and rest without any further delay.

On the last night in the capital, everyone rested early. Early the next morning, several carriages drove out of Futai Street.

Halfway through, the carriage Shu Yu was riding in went to Hong's house alone, while the others left the city first.

Aunt Hong had been waiting at the door for a long time, but she was not the only one standing at the door. There were also three members of the Hong family, two sons, one daughter, and a large group of people crowded at the door.

Shu Yu, "..."

Aunt Hong took the two bundles from her son's hands, waved to little Song Le who stuck her head out, and then said to Shu Yu sheepishly, "I have a lot of things..."

"It's just two pieces of baggage, there's no way it's too much. Don't worry, I can let it go."

Ying Xi got off the carriage and helped Aunt Hong up.

The carriage was very empty, and Aunt Hong was slightly relieved.

After she sat down nervously, she waved to the Hong family and said, "Okay, I'm leaving now. You can go back."

But Boss Hong took a step forward and said, "Mom, this is your first time traveling far away, so we don't worry about it, so we'll give you a gift."

"No, I'm sitting in a carriage, and you guys can't catch up."

"It's okay, it's okay. We hired two mule carts a long time ago. Look, they're coming. We'll take you to the city gate, which is not far away."

Aunt Hong was so surprised that she turned around and saw that there were really two mule carts. She didn't know about it at all.

Meng Yunzheng said, "It's okay. It's rare for them to be filial, so let them be sent to the city gate."

Regardless of whether the Hong family really cared about Aunt Hong or pretended to care about Aunt Hong, they wanted to send his mother, who was traveling for the first time, to the city gate, and he couldn't refuse.

Aunt Hong didn't say anything more. In fact, she was still a little nervous. Having a few children to send her off could divert her attention to some extent.

So Shu Yu's carriage was walking in front, and the Hong family were jostling and squeezing in the mule carriage behind them, all the way to the outside of the city gate.
