In the brief moment Uncle Fu went to the kitchen to have someone bring out congee, Lu Yunque saw his chance to ask his grandfather for information.
"Grandpa, do you know if any of the elders in the compound recently has someone named Jiang Yi by their side?"
Lu Zhengguo looked up at Lu Yunque. "Why are you asking about this?"
Military matters were not something he could casually inquire about.
Lu Yunque had no intention of hiding anything, so he told the truth. "Here's the situation. A friend of mine opened a milk tea shop, and this man, Jiang Yi, has bought several cups in a row to take back to an elder.
Yesterday, he went to my friend's shop and asked if she would meet with him.
My friend doesn't know what's going on. She's just a young woman and doesn't want any trouble, so she came to me for help.
If it's not too much trouble, could you help me find out what's going on? What does this elder want? That way, my friend will know how to handle the situation."
