"I can't bring too many things with me when I go to the government office. There are silver and some daily necessities in this bag. I'll leave them with you first. Anyway, you are going to the southwest. Give it to me when the time comes."
Shu Yu untied the bag that had never left his body and handed it to him.
Zhao Xi asked curiously, "How much silver?"
Shu Yu extended two fingers.
Zhao Xi said, "Two thousand taels. That's enough."
Shu Yu didn't say anything. She looked at Meng Yunzheng. "Sorry to trouble you."
Meng Yunzheng was silent for a moment and laughed. "You trust me."
"If I don't believe you, who else can I believe?" Shu Yu had sewn two or three pockets inside her inner clothes and hid a hundred taels of silver notes. She could only hide so little.
If it was exposed later, she could still say that she had secretly saved it before leaving the Shu family.
