Chapter 1233: Meet You Again When Flowers Fall (33)
Du Yu'an didn't know that there was a trail of people following him.
He just thought that his daughter, who had been wandering outside for ten years, could finally come home.
The moment he received the document to return to secular life, the old father burst into tears - it was clearly not his daughter's fault back then, but in the end, it was his daughter Du Ruoheng who had the "hardest time".
Now, my daughter has returned to secular life and has also received the imperial decree from the county lady.
Whether she gets married or stays with him in the future, she will live a good life.
But he was not happy for a few days before the guards accompanying Du Yu'an told him that the Wei family was following him.
"Why are they behind us?" Du Yu'an frowned slightly. "You said they have two carriages?"
"Yes, sir!" The guard was a little embarrassed. "We discovered them the day before yesterday. Since they were going to Chen Zhen's regular route, they didn't think of following us. But in order to speed up the pace, sir, you temporarily changed the route, and they caught up with us, so..."
Du Yu'an stroked his beard and thought for a moment before saying, "Then don't be idle. Ask them directly what the Wei family is trying to do!"
These guards were already very tired from traveling continuously, and now they heard that they had to stop and wait for people, which meant they could rest, so they all breathed a sigh of relief.
It was getting close to evening and they were originally planning to camp outdoors, but now they were on the outskirts of the woods, and there was water nearby, which seemed like a good place.
After that, they divided the work and started doing things.
Some are looking for firewood, some are hunting, and some are cooking.
Du Yu'an was the most leisurely. He took a fishing rod and started fishing at the water source.
Now, more than an hour later, the Wei family's carriage arrived.
After hearing what the guards had reported, Madam Wei could only bite the bullet and get out of the carriage: "Master Du, you see, our two families are truly destined to meet. Even in this desolate wilderness, we still meet."
"This road leads to Yongzhou. Not many people know about it because it's so remote. Madam Wei, are you going to Yongzhou too?" Du Yu'an didn't even glance at her. "Normally, women from official families wouldn't go here, so Madam Wei, our meeting is no coincidence.
Why don't you tell me what you are doing following me? "
"Master Du, what you said is serious. I am a married woman from a good family. I am not just following you. I am also going to Yongzhou." When she said this, Mrs. Wei's tone was full of pride. "My son Wei Yanshan is the military officer of Yongzhou.
I haven't seen my son for many years. This time I have some free time, so I plan to go to Yongzhou to see him. Is that okay?"
"Okay! Just take care of your son and don't think about other things." Du Yu'an felt his fishing hook move. He lifted it up and found a very small fish hanging on it. He didn't think it was interesting, so he let the fish go.
Seeing Du Yu'an's expression not seeming too serious, Madam Wei's heart moved: "Master Du, we all had our own difficulties in those days. My son was young and the life in the border town was boring. He couldn't resist the temptation and made a big mistake.
But no matter what, my master kicked him out of the Wei family and removed his name from the family tree. The peasant girl from that time also passed away a few years ago. There is actually no deep hatred between our two families. Besides, your Ah Heng will become a monk..."
"Shut up. I don't know if you have any difficulties, but I have pure hatred for your family. It has nothing to do with whether you have any difficulties or not." Du Yu'an handed the fishing rod in his hand to the person next to him. "Your words are so nice,
If you hadn't been unwilling to accept the situation and spread those rumors, my Ah Heng would never have become a Taoist priest."
Madam Wei was frightened by the other party's momentum and said only one sentence: "She is a female Taoist priest, and she has not suffered much!"
"That's because my daughter is capable. You can try someone else." Du Yu'an didn't want to pay any attention to Mrs. Wei anymore and went straight back to his place.
"Hey!" Mrs. Wei wanted to say something, and it would be better to explain herself.
But just after she said a word, Yu Mama grabbed Madam Wei and said, "Master, you can hear the echo when you speak in this place. It's very creepy. How about we go back to the carriage first? Madam, some things cannot be solved overnight.
This isn't the place to talk. Even if we take a step back, the one who did the wrong thing was the young master. Even if he wants to apologize, he has to come in person. Besides, just using words is too..."
Knowing that Nanny Yu was right, Mrs. Wei did not follow her.
After that, the journey was very peaceful.
A few days later, the two families arrived at the city gate of Yongzhou one after another.
However, the treatment of the two was completely different compared to the Wei family's practice of queuing up in an orderly manner to enter the city.
Du Yu'an and his group had just arrived at the city gate when they were spotted by the people arranged by Huo Xiaoye. Someone went to inform him first, and the others greeted Du Yu'an politely: "Master Du, right? My master calculated the time and you will be here soon.
I have been waiting here for two days, today is the third day, and you are finally here."
