Liu Bao drove the ox cart without looking back: "That's right, his wife went to the village chief and told him, the village chief went to the government office to file a report, and the government officials also came to the village to inquire. In my opinion, this man is not a good person, it's better for him to never come back, so as not to disturb the peace of his family and the village."
Xia Wanniang listened but did not interrupt. Instead, she explained things to the three children: "There are many people in the city. You must hold on to your mother and grandmother's hands tightly. If you get lost by accident, remember the method I told you and leave a mark for me. I will definitely find you."
The three children all took notes seriously. They all carried a small bag with them. The bag did not contain anything valuable, just some colorful beads.
There is a small thread at the bottom of the bag. Just pull it gently to create a small hole and the small beads inside will slowly fall out.
It was Xia Wan's mother who asked Aunt Xiao to make this bag, just in case. This is not the high-tech future. Even in such a place, it would be difficult to find a lost child.
Aunt Xiao didn't ask any more questions, but started chatting with Liu Bao about family matters.
There have been more people going to the city recently, and soon the ox cart was full of people. Many people also talked about what Liu Bao had just said.
When they arrived at the city gate, Xia Wanniang gave Liu Bao the fare, but he said he wanted nothing.
Finally, Xia Wanniang put five cents on the ox cart and left with her three children.
Liu Bao looked at the money in the car and could only put it away helplessly.
As soon as Aunt Xiao and her companions entered the city, they clearly felt that there were a lot of people in the city, and the originally wide streets were a bit crowded.
Many places were crowded with people, and cheers and applause could be heard.
The three children curiously stretched their heads over there, wanting to see what was inside.
Xia Wanniang pulled their little hands and said, "We have to do something else first."
The three children could only look away with regret and follow her to Qingheyi first.
Qing Heyi's business is much better than before, and there are many horse-drawn carriages parked at the gate.
Seeing that they couldn't get in through the main gate, Xia Wanniang simply took them around to the back.
The back door was not locked. She knocked on it and saw Master Qi walking out of a room. He was stunned when he saw her.
Master Qi turned around and shouted, "Madam, Madam Xiao is here."
Madam Qi came out from behind him and waved to her: "Come in and sit down. I said I would go to the village to find you tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come first."
The three children walked up to them and saluted respectfully: "Hello, Grandpa Qiao, Grandma Qiao."
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Qi looked at the three children with great fondness: "Are you all feeling better?"
"Everything is fine." The three children said in unison.
"It's good, it's good." He quickly asked Master Qi to get cakes for the three children, and then took Xia Wanniang and the others into the next room.
This is a study room, where they usually check their account books.
Madam Qi looked at Xia Wanniang and Madam Xiao and said, "I haven't seen you two for a while. You have changed so much that I can hardly recognize you."
Aunt Xiao smiled and said, "It's just that the three children are in good health, so there are not so many things to worry about."
"People feel refreshed when they are happy, and everyone they see looks a little younger." Mrs. Qi was extremely envious.
Xia Wanniang waited until Master Qi came back before she explained her purpose: "I came here today to tell you two that I may not have time to make clothes and send them to you in the future."
Mrs. Qi was a little anxious when she heard this: "Is the price we offered too low? Can we get less than 50%?"
Seeing that his wife was anxious, Master Qi quickly said, "Madam, please listen to what Madam Xiao has to say first."
Xia Wanniang: "After the Chinese New Year, spring will come. I have other things to do. Another thing is that my mother said that making too many clothes will hurt her eyes, so I will not do this business for the time being."
Mrs. Qi felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this, but she could understand it. Sewing clothes or embroidering are both jobs that are tiring to the eyes and mind.
Master Qi: "I wonder what you think about what I talked about with Madam Xiao last time."
