When the courtyard door opened, the old lady saw Madam Liang’s forehead covered in sweat.

The weather had cooled down, and she had come back on the ox cart without putting in much effort, but at this moment, she was covered in sweat and looked a little disheveled.

The old lady looked at her suspiciously. “What are you doing?”

“Mother, something big has happened. “Madam Liang pulled a long face and pulled the old lady into the house.

The old lady looked at the crooked basket on her back and frowned. “Unload this first.”

Only then did Madam Liang notice that she had been carrying a basket on her back the entire way. Daniu and Dabao, those two bastards, did not remind her.

Madam Liang placed the basket on her back in a haphazard manner. She did not care if it was tilted and dragged the old lady into the house to talk.

The old lady’s wrist was hurting from her grip. After entering the room, she immediately shook her off. “If you want to talk, talk. Can you be less forceful?”

She didn’t believe that something big had happened. This person had always been exaggerating. She could exaggerate even the smallest thing.

Madam Liang wiped her face and was about to cry. “Mother, didn’t you ask me to go back to my mother’s house today? Later, when I was planning to return to the county town, I went to the village and saw Scholar Tang and his mother who had returned from the provincial examination. That sister-in-law Tang said that she saw Yu in the prefecture. Something happened to her and she was exiled to the southwest.”

The old lady’s expression froze. She turned her head abruptly and her eyes were stern. “What nonsense are you talking about? Yu went to the southwest to look for someone. What exile? If you dare to talk nonsense again, do you believe I’ll tear your mouth apart?”

“Mother, I didn’t say anything.” Madam Liang was also very afraid, and her voice was trembling.”It was Sister-in-law Tang who said it herself. She said that they saw with their own eyes that Yu was among the exiles and was escorted out of the city by the officials. That’s why they didn’t wait for the results of the provincial examination to be released and came back in a hurry to confirm if Yu was at home and if they had recognized the wrong person.”

The old lady took a step back as the scene of Tang Wenqian and Mrs. Tang entering the shop yesterday flashed through her mind. When they first started asking about Yu’s whereabouts, she thought Mrs. Tang had some kind of idea about her.

So it wasn’t because of this.

Madam Liang replied, “Scholar Tang, he didn’t deny it. When I went out, he even told me not to spread the news. If it got out, the entire Lu family would be in trouble. I panicked and didn’t dare to tell anyone, so I quickly came back to find you. Mother, what should we do now?”

The old lady’s throat was dry. She shook her head slowly. “No, that’s impossible. How is that possible? Our Yu is fine. Why should she be exiled? Impossible, no…”

“Mother! Mother! What’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me.” Madam Liang suddenly screamed, causing Daniu, who was picking up the basket in the courtyard, to tremble. The basket fell to the ground again.

Daniu’s expression changed drastically and he quickly rushed into the house.

At a glance, she saw that the old lady was about to fall to the ground with her eyes closed. Madam Liang Livingstone supported her body with difficulty.

Daniu quickly came over to help him up. “N-Nanny, wake up.” His expression was unusually fierce and stern. “What did you say?”

Madam Liang shrank back a little. When she heard the commotion, the three girls and Baoya also ran in. At this moment, they stood at the door in unison.

Seeing the old lady lying on the ground, Baoya was so scared that she started crying. Sanya also asked in fear, “What happened to Nanny?”
