2734 Chapter 2734-promise

Fatty Wang said that he had a good relationship with Shu Yan. Now that fatty Wang’s closest person was gone, Gu Xin didn’t want him to lose this cousin too.

“Third miss is right. I will definitely investigate this matter properly when I return.” After calming down, master Shu continued, ” however, I still plan to bring Yanyan back. Yanyan’s mother was worried about her the most before she passed away. I have to take her back to pay her respects to her mother and let her mother know that Yanyan is still alive and well.”

“Yes.” Gu Xin nodded her head. This was someone else’s family matter, she could just mention it a little. It would not be nice if she interfered.

“Don’t worry, third miss. I will take good care of Yanyan. I know third young lady’s concerns, I will not let the matter from ten years ago happen again.” Master Shu said solemnly.

Gu Xin didn’t say anything. Promises were useless, no matter how determined and attentive one was when making a promise.

Master Shu was still thinking about what had happened back then.

At that time, Shu Yan had gone missing. They didn’t report it to the authorities for the first two days. After all, if an unmarried girl suddenly disappeared, it would be bad for her reputation. Moreover, Shu Yan had just reached marriageable age and was preparing to meet her.

Two days later, he mobilized all the forces in the Shu mansion to search for it, but they couldn’t find it. He only reported it to the official on the third day.

The officials said that it had been two days. If you had reported to the officials, you might have been able to stop them. Now, two days later, they didn’t know where he went. How were they going to find him? They definitely wouldn’t be able to find them in the city or the surrounding areas. The Yamen didn’t have that many people to send people in every direction. They could only inform the surrounding Yamen to be careful.

Master Shu decided to put out a reward for those who found Shu Yan.

That year, there were indeed a lot of people who helped to find Shu Yan. The Shu family’s business was very big and at that time, fatty Wang’s father was also a prefect. However, he had not been transferred to Tongzhou, so the people in the government were still very helpful.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, a month had passed and they didn’t even find anyone suspicious, let alone Shu Yan.

Shu Yan’s mother also fell completely sick at that time.

After that, she fell sick and couldn’t get up. Every day, she thought about looking for her daughter. After only three months, Shu Yan’s mother passed away. Before she died, she held onto the great master Shu’s hand and made him promise that he would definitely find their Yanyan in this life. Otherwise, she would not acknowledge her even after the great master Shu went to hell.

Master Shu and Shu Yan’s mother had a deep relationship and he wanted to follow his wife. Because he promised Shu Yan’s mother, he had been living in seclusion and searching for his daughter.

At that time, Zhang Liushi had also reported it to the government. However, there was a difference of two or three months between the two sides. Moreover, the Shu family’s people were almost all in the front line of Jiangnan, so they had also asked around in Tongzhou. However, at that time, the Tongzhou magistrate was muddleheaded and didn’t take the situation reported by Zhang Liushi’s village seriously at all, so they made a mistake.

Shu Yan was thrown into the river after her mother died. Master Shu was heartbroken over his missing daughter and also reminisced about his late wife. In the entire Shu family, no one else cared so much about Shu Yan except him.

Master Shu once again perked up to look for her, but it was only half a year after Shu Yan’s mother passed away, when he was woken up by his parents ‘scolding.

However, after such a long time, it was even more difficult to find.

He had been a little disheartened over the years.
