Chapter 603: Let’s See Where You Can Escape to

“Ah! Please come in.” Before Uncle Liu could finish speaking, he walked in and met Ruyi halfway. “Manager Yi, Madam’s aunt is here.”

Ruyi smiled in surprise. “Hurry up and inform Madam. I’ll welcome them in.”

Li Yu received the report and hurriedly went out to welcome her. Li Mei looked at Li Yu, who she had not seen for more than ten years, and greeted her excitedly.

The aunt and niece held hands, their faces filled with the joy of reuniting after a long time.

Li Yu looked at Li Mei, who had gray hair, Brother Pig, who was tall and thin, and Liu Changming, who looked much older. She sighed that time was unforgiving.

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Mei looked at Li Yu guiltily. “Xiaoyu, I’ve burdened you. Laidi has troubled you.”

“Aunt, you’re still so polite to me!” Li Yu looked at the delicate Brother Pig.

“Aunt, Brother Pig looks different from when he was young. He’s delicate.”

“He’s lost weight in the past two years. Brother Pig is much less worrisome than Laidi,” Li Mei said in relief as she looked at Li Yu.

Liu Changming also nodded happily. “I originally thought he was mischievous, but now it seems that he’s the least worrisome.”

Li Yu looked at the wrinkled and exhausted Li Mei and felt a little sad. She comforted her. “Aunt, I haven’t seen her in months since I met her that time. I heard from them that she’s busy with the pickled vegetables business. Eat something and rest well. I’ll bring you to Laidi’s house to see her.”

Li Mei looked at Li Yu and held back her tears. “Xiaoyu, this child broke my heart, but I can’t bear to part with the flesh that has fallen from my body.”

Liu Changming sighed and said, “Xiaoyu, ever since we received your letter, your aunt found out about Laidi’s divorce with that Li guy and clamored to come to the capital to pick her up. Coincidentally, a convoy from the bank came over, so we followed.”

Seeing that they missed their daughter, Li Yu said to Ruyi, “Ruyi, get someone to set up the carriage. I’ll accompany Aunt and the others to Laidi’s house.”

An hour later, the group arrived outside the small courtyard rented by Laidi. The courtyard door was wide open, and a few women were sitting in the courtyard. Everyone was busy choosing and washing the vegetables. Under the eaves of the corridor, Lai Di was busy bending down to cut the vegetables.

Laidi turned around and saw Li Mei. She stood there in a daze, tears flowing uncontrollably.

Li Mei walked forward and patted Laidi. “Stupid girl, you troublesome girl.. ‘

Laidi knelt at Li Mei’s feet and hugged her legs as she cried regretfully, “Mother, I asked for it. I harmed myself and others, causing you to come all the way here… ”

Liu Changmin pulled her up. “Your mother’s health isn’t good. Don’t make her cry anymore. It’s fine as long as you know that you’re in the wrong. How can a person not make mistakes in their life? With Father and Mother around, Father and Mother will bring you home.”

“Father, Mother, Little Brother…” Laidi looked at Li Mei, her husband, and her brother. Thinking of the hurtful words she had said in the past, she knelt on the ground again in shame.

A month later, Li Mei bought a small courtyard in the capital. The couple accompanied their son to study at Lin family school. Laidi was still doing her pickled vegetable business and became more reliable.

Another ten years passed in the blink of an eye. After court, Zhou Jia was called to the Imperial Study by Chu Yuhao.

After Zhou Jia bowed, he glanced at the happy emperor. Thinking of the declaration submitted by Great Qi and the hostages sent to the capital, he felt proud.

Chu Yuhao was in a good mood. He felt that Mr. Zhou, who was almost close to 50, was still as handsome and elegant as ever. He looked at Zhou Jia with a smile. “Jiahe, is your eldest young master engaged?”

Zhou Jia bowed and said, “Your Majesty, that young brat said that there’s no hurry. We can’t do anything about it. Besides, he’s guarding Yunzhou now. We can’t do anything to him.”

Chu Yuhao gestured for Zhou Jia to sit down and said to him, “It’s time for the child to get married. Jiahe, go back and discuss this with Madam Li. I’ll be the matchmaker!”

Zhou Jia looked at Chu Yuhao uneasily. “Your Majesty, which family’s daughter is it?”

Chu Yuhao smiled and said, “Miss Shen, Shen Jie. That child is straightforward and pure. She has known your eldest young master since they were young. I think the two of them are quite compatible. Go back and tell Madam Li that I’ll give them a marriage.”

Zhou Jia recalled that Yangyang often nagged about her and said that she was annovinz. He even said that she was a little chili. Zhou Tia heaved a sigh of

relief. “Thank you, Your Majesty. I’ll tell Madam when I get back.”

Zhou Jia came out of the imperial study and rushed home without even going to the government office. He saw Xingxing, now a handsome youth, wiping his long saber in the courtyard. “Xing’er, where did your mother go?”

Xingxing pointed to the back garden. “Mother and Second Brother are fiddling with that big ship model in the back garden. I heard from Mother that she wants to buy a big ship and go out with you.”

Zhou Jia smiled and nodded. “Yes! When your brother gets married, your mother and I will go sightseeing.”

Xingxing stopped wiping the saber and chased after Zhou Jia. “Father, is Big Brother is coming back to get married? Who is he getting married to before he’s engaged? Bring me out to play with Mother. I’ll protect you.”

Zhou Jia smiled and patted him. “Young brat, you only know how to play. I think it’s time for you to find a wife.”

“Father, please spare me!” Xingxing turned around and fled.

When Li Yu saw the father and son, Xingxing had already turned around and run away. Yueyue pointed at the ship model in the lotus pond and smiled. “Mr. Zhou, how’s the boat your Madam ordered?”

Looking at the two-story model of the ship in the lotus pond, Zhou Jia smiled and nodded. “Not bad.” He looked at the smiling Li Yu. “Madam, when Yang’er gets married and the ship is built, we’ll set off to play.”

Yueyue looked at Zhou Jia curiously. “Father, where did you find a wife for Big Brother?”

Li Yu looked at him. “His Majesty bestowed a marriage? Whose daughter is it? Let me tell you first, I won’t agree if her character is bad!”

Zhou Jia smiled and said, “Don’t worry, His Majesty asked me to come back and discuss it with you. I think it’s not bad. It’s Miss Shen, whom you Imow too.”

When she heard that it was the young lady from the Shen family, Li Yu smiled in satisfaction. “Oh! Not bad. Go and ask His Majesty to issue a decree to transfer that young brat back from the border. He’ll get married at the end of the year.”

Zhou Jia smiled and bowed. “Yes!”

Zhou Chenxi, who was far away at the border, received the decree from the capital. He felt a faint pain in his chest again and thought to himself, “Stupid girl, I’ve fallen into your hands.”

His best friend, Qi Dingbang, and a few colleagues looked at him and cheered. Qi Dingbang smiled slyly. “Aiyo! You’re finally taken. You can’t escape after all!”

Lin Sen was also happy for him. “It’s finally your turn to treat us to a wedding.

Groom, quickly treat us to a drink.’

Zhou Chenxi smiled readily. “Look at how petty you are. Isn’t it just drinking? Let’s go, I’ll treat you.”

Qi Dingbang laughed and said, “Let’s go!”

They walked towards the entrance of the camp with their arms around each other’s shoulders.

Zhou Chenxi saw the smiling girl in red standing there at a glance and turned to escape.

Shen Jie pointed at him. “Zhou Chenxi, let’s see where you can escape to.”

Two years later, at Ninghe Port, two days away from the capital, Li Yu and Zhou Jia boarded a two-story ship docked at the river port. After waving goodbye to the people who sent them off, the ship sailed out of the port.

After the sun set, Li Yu sat cross-legged on the deck and fished. Yueyue and Xingxing came out from the bottom and ran to Li Yu’s side to sit down. They said with drooling faces, “Mother, we’re here too.”

Li Yu rolled her eyes at them..
