In the past, when the Shu family was still prosperous, the old madam was the head of the family, and everyone had to live their lives with her face.

Not to mention concubines, even the first Madam and Second Madam, who were the first wives, were often beaten by her to set rules.

The two madams had long hoped that she would die so that she could be the master of the house.

Unfortunately, when the Shu family was doing well, the old madam was still alive. When the Shu family was in trouble, she died.

As for her granddaughters, they had always tried to curry favor with her to obtain good resources. In terms of feelings, there wasn’t much.

Therefore, after a few words and a few cries, they continued on their way.

The official did not delay for long. After dealing with the old madam’s body, he continued to escort everyone on their way.

However, it was probably because they had faced death on the road to exile that they were more and more afraid. The atmosphere was very dispirited along the way.

Shu Yu was supposed to eat and drink. Now that she was in the carriage, she would lie down when she felt uncomfortable sitting and squatting when she felt uncomfortable lying down. However, at noon, she could still come out to stand and relax.

In the end, when she came out today, she saw Madam Hou walking over.

Shu Yu narrowed her eyes, and the officer frowned.

“Does this woman want to die? It’s not easy to stop for two days, and now you’re going to provoke her again?”

“I’ll go take a look.”

As a result, the moment this officer stood up, he was stopped by another officer.

The latter said, “What’s the hurry? Let’s take a look first. If something happens, it won’t be too late for us to go over. It’ll also be a good time for the other Shu family members to see and completely give up.”

This officer was the person that Shu Yu had seen that Madam Hou had seduced. He had also given Madam Hou two steamed buns.

Shu Yu didn’t know if the two of them were together again after that. She didn’t meet them again.

Madam Hou walked to Shu Yu’s side. Seeing that no one from the official’s side came over, she let out a sigh of relief. Then she gave Shu Yu a dry laugh and said, “Well, Third Miss.”

Shu Yu looked at Madam Hou. “What’s the matter?”

She wasn’t familiar with Madam Hou, but the two of them didn’t have any enmity.

Madam Hou licked her dry lips and said in a hoarse voice, “Third Miss, can I beg you to let my daughter rest in the car? She has a high fever now, and her limbs are weak. She can’t walk at all.”

Shu Yu followed her line of sight and looked back. She saw that the Sixth Young Lady had already fallen to the ground, looking as if she had fainted.

Madam Hou’s eyes reddened when she saw that. “If we continue to travel in the afternoon, she won’t be able to hold on. She’s so young. I’m afraid that she’ll be gone just like the old madam. Third Miss, I beg you. Please help me once. I will do anything for you.”

“Why should I help you?” Shu Yu was still unmoved. “You can’t even take care of yourself now. How are you going to work for others?”

Madam Hou was startled. She looked up at Shu Yu in front of her. Sure enough, she had changed. She was no longer the timid Third Young Lady from before.

A person who had died once had already become so cold.

Shu Yu laughed and said, “Besides, this is a prison carriage. Although I’m sitting inside now, I’m not the one making the decisions. You should go and beg those officers.”

Madam Hou shook her head. “I know. This prison carriage was bought with your money.”

Shu Yu raised her eyebrows. She was quite well-informed.

Madam Hou did not have any confidence. “You’re right, I really can’t take care of myself now. Then, what about the past? Can I use my past friendship in exchange for it?”
