Chapter 265 - 133: Prevent Her from Speaking Out (Part 2)
"Yes, I had already planned to leave in a few days anyway. Heading to the capital earlier would also give me time to find a suitable inn," Sang Yufei said with a smile.
"Is all your luggage and travel funds ready?" Sang Wan asked busily when the topic of going to the capital came up. She really wanted to offer to provide the funds herself, but thinking of what Shi Yumei had said, she forcibly suppressed the thought. She didn’t want to take any more advantage from the Shi family!
Sang Yufei, fearing she would stress over this, hurriedly reassured with a smile, "Don’t worry, Elder brother and sister-in-law have already prepared everything for me! I’ve taken three hundred silver banknotes, and though the capital might be expensive, I believe it should be more than enough! You don’t need to worry about me anymore!" Sang Yufei sighed lightly and continued, "In principle, as the elder brother, it should be I who takes care of you. Yet, you still end up worrying about everything, and there’s also your husband who has done so much for our family! Dear sister, there’s no need for you to prepare anything for me this time. If you did, I would truly feel uneasy!"
"Second Brother, take care along the way. I will be waiting to celebrate your packed achievements and your triumphant return!" Sang Wan smiled and nodded, then quickly added with another smile, "No matter the outcome, the most important thing is that you stay safe! Second Brother, please don’t worry us, make sure you come back soon!"
"Rest assured! I will! And you all take care at home too!" Sang Yufei responded with a smile.
The siblings talked and bid farewell to each other. Noticing that it was about time, Sang Yufei went first to inform Shi Fenghua of his departure. Though Shi Fenghua was quite surprised, he did not insist on keeping him when he was determined to leave, so they simply bid each other farewell. Afterwards, Sang Wan accompanied him to bid farewell to Mrs. Wang, who warmly tried to persuade him to stay. Seeing his insistence, she finally sighed, "What Second Uncle says makes sense, to settle in the capital sooner brings peace of mind earlier. Then I won’t hold you back! Second Uncle, take care on your journey! Our Shi family has shops in many cities along the canal, as Chang Huan knows. If you need anything, just find our people, don’t be shy!"
Sang Yufei quickly thanked her.
Mrs. Wang also ordered someone to seal two hundred taels of silver as a travel gift, but Sang Yufei firmly declined, saying he had already imposed on the Shi family for so many days and felt uneasy about accepting more. Mrs. Wang had no choice but to let it go.
