Chapter 2019: Xiao shi's Departure
Xiao Shi was well aware of Gu Mayi's thoughts. She smiled and said, "Sooner or later, I have to return. Besides, I miss my parents."
"We can bring Master and Madam here. It's a good opportunity to get away from the rumors and gossip in the capital and relax here," Gu Mayi suggested.
Xiao Shi shook her head. "My father was poisoned in the Xiao family before, and his health is greatly affected. There's no need to make him travel such a long distance."
Even if she and Xiang Weinan divorced in the future, and she took her parents away from the capital, they wouldn't go too far. Xiao Shi's father had been bedridden for a long time, and apart from other reasons, traveling from the north to the south, with different climates and environments, would be too strenuous on his health.
"But..."
Gu Mayi wanted to say something more, but Xiao Shi saw Shu Yu running out from the yard.
She approached the carriage and stopped Xiao Shi from getting off, handing her a pouch.
"This is for you."
Xiao Shi was a bit surprised and opened it to see. "A protective talisman?"
"Yes, I know you don't lack anything else. This is to bless your future with safety and smoothness," Shu Yu explained.
Xiao Shi tightened her grip on the pouch. In fact, she had several protective talismans. While she had lived in the rear courtyard of the Dongqing Temple, she had often gone to the main hall to pray for her parents' well-being. Each time, she would buy protective talismans from the Taoist nuns, planning to give them to her parents when she returned.
However, this protective talisman was different. Shu Yu added, "This talisman is special. It was personally blessed by my master, the head of the Dongqing Temple. It's better than those from the ordinary temple."
Xiao Shi was momentarily stunned, and even Gu Mayi's eyes lit up. A talisman personally blessed by the head of the Dongqing Temple was indeed a precious item.
"Thank you," Xiao Shi said, carefully putting it away.
As it was getting late, Shu Yu didn't say much more. She waved her hand and said, "Have a safe journey and take care."
"You take care too. Goodbye."
Xiao Shi let down the carriage curtain, and the carriage slowly moved forward, disappearing at the corner of Fenghuai Street.
Shu Yu stood at the door for a while, and a familiar voice came from beside her. "Has she left?"
She turned to see the old lady and smiled, "Yes, she wanted to leave the city before the gates closed and didn't stay for dinner. I should apologize to grandmother."
"What's there to apologize for? You've come back, and she's gone to reunite with her family. That's a good thing, and of course, we shouldn't stop her."
Reunite, huh? Shu Yu smiled and said, "Yes, it's a good thing."
She linked her arm with Grandma Lu and turned back to the house, changing the topic, "Grandmother, have you finished talking to Ah Rui and the others?"
"What good is there to talk about? They were just chattering away, and in no time, they started quarreling. They gave me a headache," she replied, but her face showed her happiness.
Children quarreling was a sign of being home again.
She told Shu Yu, "Your father, mother, and Ah You, Ah Ning, and the others are all busy in the shop. I've already sent someone to inform them, and they'll be back soon."
Of course, Lu Erbai, Ruan Shi, couldn't be left out. With one working in the carpenter's shop and the other in the garment workshop on Liufang Lane, they were busy every day.
As for Shu You, she had returned home with her child. After all, Zhao Xi had bought a house, and they had their own servants. She couldn't stay at her parents' house forever. However, it wasn't too far, especially since Zhao Xi's house was near Lu Erbai's carpentry shop. They could meet anytime, and in essence, it wasn't much different from before her marriage."
