Chapter 1744: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1744: Granny Fang and Granny Li are Worried
Shu Yu smiled and nodded, giving the woman a reassuring answer.
The woman was quite excited and turned around to talk to her family behind her.
Seeing this, Shu Yu didn't delay and left with Ying Xi.
They headed to the Mi family's clinic. The clinic was closed at the moment. Ever since the bandits came, the clinic remained tightly shut day and night; it simply couldn't be opened.
Shu Yu knocked on the door, and soon a cautious voice came from inside, "Who's there?"
"It's me."
The door opened, revealing Granny Fang's face.
As soon as she saw Shu Yu, she quickly stepped aside, saying, "Quick, come in."
She then looked left and right with the same caution and hurriedly closed the door.
Granny Fang seemed still frightened, "Miss Lu, why have you come? Do you know what's happening outside? Last night was really terrifying. Both Doctor Mi and I didn't dare to sleep. By the way, why didn't Ah Gui come back with you?"
She asked a flurry of questions, clearly very concerned.
Regarding the events of last night, naturally Shu Yu couldn't tell Granny Fang and Doctor Mi. Therefore, they, like the other townspeople, were in the dark and had spent the restless night listening to the distant commotion.
Shu Yu felt a bit guilty, but there was no other way. The fewer people who knew about the operation, the better.
Now that the situation was resolved, she could finally tell them.
After inquiring about Meng Xiaoshu's condition and learning that he was slightly better and out of danger, Shu Yu felt relieved.
She then proceeded to explain the situation to the two of them.
Granny Fang and Doctor Mi were left dumbfounded after hearing everything. What had they heard?
It turned out that the magistrate of the County was the mastermind behind the bandits in their area, colluding with those criminals to harm the townspeople.
It turned out that when Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu went to rescue Meng Xiaoshu, not only did they save him, but they also brought back the wealthy sons and daughters from Chenggu County who had been captured.
It turned out that the disturbances last night were caused by them. They not only subdued the patrolling guards and city defenders but also captured the County Magistrate.
Furthermore, there were even Imperial Guards sent by the Emperor among them.
Granny Fang swallowed hard, her voice trembling, "So, what do we do now? Earlier, the County Magistrate locked the city gates to prevent us from leaving. Can we go out now?"
However, Shu Yu shook her head, "Not yet. There's a battle going on outside. General Huang is clashing with the rebels. Those rebels outside don't yet know that Chenggu County has been taken by us. If the people inside the city go out, the situation might be exposed. And right now, Chenggu County is actually safer than outside."
Doctor Mi nodded beside her, "Yes, that's right. Who knows if those bandits outside will scatter in all directions after being attacked by General Huang's troops?"
Granny Fang sighed inwardly and fell silent.
Suddenly, Doctor Mi seemed to remember something and quickly stood up, "Did they put up any announcements at the county office?"
"They probably did." The county office was now under Xia Yi's full control. The townspeople had been living in a state of fear, so she had to give them some reassurance to prevent further chaos.
Doctor Mi said, "I'll go to the county office and check."
As he was about to leave, Shu Yu quickly told him, "Doctor Mi, don't tell anyone about what I just said. We don't know how the notices posted on the bulletin board explain the situation. If there's a different version, it might stir up trouble."
