Chapter 76 Leaving overnight
Chapter 76 Leaving overnight
Upon hearing his sister Lü Xinyan's words, Lü Muyi finally came to his senses, and his gaze towards Lü Xinyan became even more complicated.
He truly hadn't expected that his sister, upon returning this time, had already investigated everything about their family and was even planning to take them all away from Ningshui Village.
At this moment, Lü Muyi's admiration for Lü Xinyan grew even stronger.
Similarly, Lü Muyi also felt very guilty towards Lü Xinyan.
In comparison, his sister did so much for the family as soon as she came back, and she considered so much for the family, but he still doubted her good intentions. This is really wrong.
Especially since his sister was so frank with him, not avoiding these issues, his worries and precautions seemed quite unnecessary.
Shaking his head, Lü Muyi quickly calmed himself down.
Seeing that his sister had already covered the cave again and was pushing the cart back, moving very fast and walking very steadily on the mountain path as if it were flat ground, Lü Muyi took a deep breath and immediately followed.
My sister is absolutely right. Their most important task right now is to leave Ningshui Village, lest those people suddenly change their minds.
As for other matters, we can deal with them when the opportunity arises.
However, this time, while pushing the cart and carrying things with his older sister Lü Xinyan, Lü Muyi got to know Lü Xinyan better and enjoyed spending time with her even more.
The siblings really do have similar personalities; they speak their minds directly without any suspicion or burden, which makes them even more in sync when they get along.
When Lü Xinyan and Lü Muyi returned pushing the cart, the house was almost completely tidied up.
To avoid any unforeseen complications, Lü Xinyan and her group decided to leave immediately, far away from Ningshui Village, lest Lü Bowen and his group change their minds again.
Lu Daquan and the others knew Lu Bowen quite well and did not trust this so-called clan leader.
Now that they have obtained these important documents, the safest course of action for the family is to leave Ningshui Village immediately.
There's really nothing worth taking from home, so a simple tidying up is all I need.
Furthermore, with the cakes provided by clan chief Lü Bowen and the important supplies brought back by Lü Xinyan, they had food to eat on the road and no longer needed to prepare any extra rations.
There's not much food left at home, so we can just take it all with us; it's not a burden.
As for drinking water, we have cooled boiled water at home, filled water bags, and brought them along as well.
Overall, things went very smoothly. Lü Xinyan and the others lifted Lü Muren onto the cart, laid out dry grass, and made sure nothing was left behind. Then, Lü Muyi and Lü Muli held torches, while Lü Daquan pushed the cart, allowing Lü Muzhi and Lü Muxin to sit on it and take care of Lü Muren. Only then did the family hurriedly set off to leave.
Lü Xinyan walked in the middle of the group, keeping a close eye on the surroundings, especially the situation in Ningshui Village.
A lot happened today. Recently, the drought has also affected the village, causing most people to go hungry. The villagers went to bed early and ate bread and drank water in their dreams to barely get by.
It wasn't very late, but there was hardly any light in the village, and most people had already gone to bed.
Because of this, they did not expect that Lü Daquan's family would leave Ningshui Village under the cover of night, instead of waiting until early the next morning to set off.
Even though Lu Bowen and his group still had some doubts and regrets about what they had done today, they only thought about coming back tomorrow to check the situation, and they did not intend to come over in the dark.
In this way, Lü Bowen and Wu Youcai missed their last chance to keep Lü Daquan's family.
Furthermore, Lü Daquan and his group took a small path closer to Lianyun Mountain, which was further away from Ningshui Village and would not allow the villagers of Ningshui Village to hear anything.
The Lü family lived at the foot of Lianyun Mountain at the entrance of the village, which was quite far from the village. Due to Wu Guizhi's deliberate guidance, the Lü family was ostracized by the villagers of Ningshui Village, who did not want to get close to them. This actually made it easier for Lü Daquan and his family to leave quietly this time.
Only after they had gone further away from Ningshui Village and no one came to cause trouble or stop them did Lü Xinyan finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Being able to leave Ningshui Village and start over is already a very rare opportunity.
From now on, their family will no longer have to worry about the dirty deeds of the Lü clan, nor will they have to suffer from their ostracism and scheming. The sky is high for birds to fly and the sea is wide for fish to leap. Their family will have a brighter future and will have no further contact with the people of Ningshui Village.
Furthermore, after leaving Ningshui Village, Lü Xinyan will ask her parents for their opinion on whether or not to investigate the truth about her origins.
Lu Xinyan still felt that everything her father had suffered in the Lu family, and the scheming and manipulation of her father and her family by those people in the old Lu family mansion, was not so simple.
Especially after seeing the swaddling clothes that Lü Bowen gave her, Lü Xinyan could tell that her father, Lü Daquan, must have come from a very humble background.
Whether there are other secrets hidden here, Lü Xinyan doesn't know for the time being, but she can continue to investigate.
Whether or not to investigate the truth about the father's background depends on the father's own decision.
Although Lü Xinyan was already very curious, she would not go against her father's decision and do these things on her own.
Looking back at the dark, shadowy Ningshui Village in the night, Lü Xinyan gave a slight smile and continued walking forward.
Once they had left the area of Ningshui Village, Lü Muyi walked up to Lü Xinyan and asked, "Sister, why hasn't Brother regained consciousness yet?"
"Big brother has been unconscious for so long, is he alright?"
"It's really strange that our eldest brother hasn't woken up yet, even though we're traveling like this."
After all this time, his elder brother Lü Muren was still sleeping so soundly, which made Lü Muyi worry.
Having learned of his sister Lü Xinyan's abilities, Lü Muyi could only seek guidance from her.
Upon hearing Lü Muyi's question, Lü Daquan and Xie Shulan also looked up at Lü Xinyan, eager to know the answer as well. They all hoped that their eldest son, Lü Muren, would recover well without any unexpected complications.
Although Lü Xinyan said that Lü Muren had been cured of the poison and was no longer in danger of dying, they still couldn't help but worry, as Lü Muren had been unconscious for so long.
