The Shu family shrunk their necks and dared not make a sound.
The officer continued, "Heichang County is still two days away by foot. You can rest here for the night and set off tomorrow morning. When we reach Heichang County, someone will naturally tell you what to do. Before that, you better behave yourselves, do you hear me?"
The Shu family members responded sparsely. The official snorted coldly and led them to the place where they were imprisoned.
The next morning, the sky had just brightened, and the Shu family had yet to wake up when the official came again. His attitude was very bad as he called everyone to get up and set off.
The Shu family did not dare to complain. When they woke up early, the weather was still freezing. Even Shu Yu felt goosebumps, let alone the other members of the Shu family.
Madam Hou and the Sixth Young Lady came over. The three of them pressed against each other, and only then did they feel better.
