Chapter 23 - Jail Visit (1)

Lu Sheng woke up to realize that Lu Ran was making breakfast.
She looked at him with surprise, but did not say anything.
After washing up, she carried her hoe and went to her garden.
In the past, her Master would make her plant her own vegetables, carry pails of water, and cook on the mountain.
That was why besides cultivating, she was also interested in culinary.
As she thought of watering the potatoes, she found that the ground was wet.
She paused and asked Lu Ran. "Brother, did it rain yesterday?"
"No, I watered it."
Lu Ran threw the dipper back into the water tank.
He looked a lot better today.
It seemed like he had his life figured out.
Lu Sheng put the hoe down and walked over to Lu Ran. "Brother, I'm going to the Police Bureau later. Do you want to come?"
Lu Sheng did not know the laws of Country Xuan Yue too well, so she did not know if murder would garner a death sentence or some other punishment.
She had deliberately released Madam He's spirit into Lu Dahua's room the previous night to see what kind of decision she would make.
However, it seemed that she did not want Lu Dahua to die.
The mention of the Police Bureau darkened Lu Ran's face.
He nodded. "I'll accompany you."
"Then Lu Jiang and Lu Xin…"
Lu Sheng could tell that Lu Ran still harbored some element of grudge toward the young siblings.
Lu Ran turned silent for a while before speaking, "Bring them along."
Even though they were the biological children of Madam Liu, they were Lu Dahua's children as well. They were his siblings.
"Okay."
Lu Sheng washed her hand. She was about to knock on the door when she saw Lu Jiang leading Lu Xin out.
The duo did not move an inch after seeing her.
"You're up?" Lu Sheng went up and patted Lu Xin's head. She smiled and said, "Go and wash up. Second Sister will bring you to the town for some good food later."
The siblings' eyes lit up when they heard 'good food.'
After the quartet had eaten their breakfast, Lu Ran went to borrow an ox cart from his neighbor before traveling to the town.
"Second Sister, I heard Mother and Third Sister were captured by the officials. Can I visit them?"
Lu Dahua was mostly not at home. So, Lu Jiang did not feel anything regarding his absence.
He did not expect his father to be in jail too.
"You can." Lu Sheng smiled. "Second Sister and Big Brother will bring you there."
Lu Ran had just parked the ox cart outside the Police Bureau when someone came up to them.
It was unknown what Lu Ran had given the official, but the official's stern face became a lot friendlier and he even sent them in.
Lu Sheng looked at Lu Ran, and she was reminded of the twenty taels Lu Dahua left her.
That money was intended for Lu Ran's education, and it was unknown how much his entrance gift would cost.
The siblings had just reached the entrance of the jail when a strong and repugnant smell wafted into their noses.
Lu Ran frowned, and the siblings covered their noses. Only Lu Sheng continued walking with a composed expression.
The officials stared at her with surprise, but said nothing.
"What do you want?"
A stern voice reached them.
Another official hurried forward and said, "Head, they are the members of the Lu Family."
"The Lu Family?"
"The Lu Family from Liu Yue Village, Lu Dahua's family."
"Oh, let them in."
Lu Sheng squinted and spotted a tall and burly figure standing in a dark corner.
He was holding on to a long whip that was coated with fresh blood.
It seemed like this figure had just punished someone.
