Chapter 1834: Travel Plans

This plan was originally intended to be implemented after the New Year, so it was still early, and everyone was discussing it.

Shu Rui was planning to go on a journey, and Er Niu, as a student of Master Wen, naturally could accompany him. With a companion on the road, they wouldn't feel as anxious.

In fact, compared to Shu Rui, who had already traveled to the southwest, Er Niu should go out and explore even more.

It wasn't just him; upon hearing the news, Da Bao insisted on not being left alone either. The three of them were of similar age and had started studying around the same time. Although Da Bao didn't attend the same school as them, their masters were close friends.

Over the past few years, as they began to study and learn to read, and jointly dealt with incidents involving Shu Yu and Li Shi, their relationship gradually improved. None of them wanted to be left behind.

They eventually decided to travel together.

If it were just Shu Rui traveling alone, Ying Dong could accompany him without a problem. With three of them, Ying Dong definitely wouldn't be able to handle it, especially with the excited Da Bao, who was like an unbridled wild horse when he heard about the opportunity to travel.

While the Lu family was wondering who should be responsible, a letter from Shu Yu arrived at the post station.

The situation in Chenggu County had become quite prominent, but Jiangyuan County was far away, and ordinary people didn't understand the intricacies of the situation.

However, the Lu family was different. Because Shu Yu and Meng Yun Zheng had left in a hurry, combined with Zhao Xi's continuous attention to the situation there, they had heard some rumors. Even if they didn't know the specifics, they understood that things were not peaceful there.

Receiving Shu Yu's letter of safety, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, right after that, a huge surprise awaited them. Shu Yu mentioned that Aunt Fang had been found and was currently in Chenggu County. They had already met, and she would be brought back after the New Year.

Grandma Lu was overjoyed and immediately started preparing the room.

Ruan Shi reminded her that Aunt Fang's family members would likely come as well, so they needed to prepare gifts for the meeting. Grandma Lu suddenly realized and looked back at the letter, but found that it didn't mention Aunt Fang's family.

Then, a day later, Grandma Lu expressed her desire to go to Chenggu County.

The Lu family was surprised, but Grandma Lu said that since Shu Rui and the others were planning to travel, they wouldn't go to nearby Prefectural, but instead head north to Changjin Prefecture to find Shu Yu.

It was early December at that time. If they hurried and traveled faster, they could reach there before the New Year, allowing them to spend the New Year together with Shu Yu and avoiding the situation where she couldn't reunite with her family during the festive season.

After some consideration, everyone agreed.

If Grandma Lu was going, then it was impossible for only Ying Dong to accompany her. Since they were going to Changjin Prefecture to find Shu Yu, it was only natural for the father of the family, Lu Erbai, to join.

The family's shop was already on the right track, with the craftsman Zheng and Liang Wangsheng taking care of things. The end-of-year business wasn't that busy, so Lu Erbai being away for a few months wouldn't be a big issue.

Since he returned from the southwest, he had been staying in Dong'an Prefecture. Now, it was time to go out and see more of the world.

Besides Lu Erbai, they needed to find one more person. This was what Lu Dasong had thought about. He believed that since his mother was going out, as the eldest son, he should be by her side to take care of her.

However, before he could even mention it, Lu Sanzhu had already spoken up.

Initially, it was Liang Shi who insisted that he go along. Da Bao was her cherished son and had never traveled far. While Liang Shi might not be conventional in her daily life, she still worried about him. With Lu Sanzhu accompanying them, Da Bao wouldn't suffer any grievances.
