Chapter 297: Rescuing Dad and Mom (1)_1
"Where are they?" Cai Wei asked anxiously.
"On the road to the Capital, approximately four hundred miles from Qingyun Town, they are being escorted by a band of stinky Taoist priests." Brother Ying circled above the group of horses and carts, observing and reporting back to Cai Wei.
"How are they now? Have they suffered?"
Cai Wei asked with a pounding heart, fearing that Brother Ying would tell her that her family had been mistreated. If that were the case, she would surely go mad!
Fortunately, Brother Ying’s response was "No, they’re all fine, just a bit frightened!"
Upon hearing Brother Ying’s words, Cai Wei was relieved. That old fox Tianjizi hadn’t killed her family. He must be afraid that she would run away. He wanted to use her family to threaten her to go to the Capital voluntarily. He hadn’t anticipated her premature death, so her parents and siblings had managed to escape by a fluke.
With her family safe and sound, Cai Wei felt at ease. She instructed Brother Ying to stay there and protect them from harm while she would rescue them at night.
After giving her orders, Cai Wei heard Chun Liu calling her for dinner from outside. She left the task of recasting the silver blocks to the three of them and left the space.
In the hall, Zhao Yun and Chun Liu had already prepared the food and set it on the table. Today’s meal was very rich, steamed fish, roast goose, bamboo shoots fried with meat, and cold mixed vegetables.
