Pei Shu'er took advantage of the midday break, walked up to Lu Qing, and handed him a purse full of money.
It was approximately two hundred taels of silver.
"Lu Jieguan, this is the money my great-aunt and the others put together, to thank the Lord for taking care of us along the way."
This did not contradict the previous incident of losing money, after all, the lost money earlier was Pei Shu'er's, and this money was collected by her great-aunt.
Lu Qing accepted the money, smiling: "Don't worry, you've done so much along the way and achieved merits, the government officers here won't treat you unfairly."
With this, Pei Shu'er felt relieved, no longer needing to exhaust her mind to have Lu Qing look after them.
Luckily, Lu Qing was perceptive, dealing with smart people was indeed easier.
