Before dawn, a family surnamed Xu near the east gate of Chenzhou City was already busy.

The eldest girl, Xu Jinyu, had already left her courtyard and told Caidie behind her, "Go and see if the second girl has gotten up. If she hasn't gotten up yet, call her."

"Hey, slave, let's go right away."

Unexpectedly, before Caidie left, a little maid came hurriedly over. It was Shuihua, the maid who served the second girl.

"My lady, our lady has packed everything and has specially asked this servant to come and tell you."

Xu Jinyu smiled and said, "You usually stay in bed all the time, but today you are very obedient and sensible."

The person she was talking about was Xu Wanning, her own sister. In this huge mansion, there were only two sisters left.

Mother Liu at the side also stepped forward to comfort her: "Big girl, the second girl has grown up, and knows how to care for others."

Xu Jinyu was very pleased: "Yes, that's right. She was always lively and active before, but since... well, I have to say it."

Since Xu Changnian, the male master of the Xu family, died of a sudden illness, the second sister almost died because of missing her late father. Xu Jinyu sought help from several doctors to treat the second sister, and only then did she get well again.

Since then, the previously willful and capricious sister has changed a lot and become considerate and caring towards her elder sister.

Xu Jinyu was very happy about this. As long as her sister was with her, she still had a home.

"That's right. Everything will pass. It's not a bad thing for you and the second girl to leave here temporarily."

"Okay, after we sisters leave, Mama Liu and Uncle Zhang will take care of the house."

Madam Liu quickly bowed and responded: "Don't worry, young lady. I have been in the mansion for decades. This is also my home. I will definitely take good care of you."

As he spoke, Xu Jinyu led his men quickly to the front yard.

Watching the people below putting all the things back on the carriage, Xu Jinyu checked again to make sure nothing was missing.

Wan Ning did get up. She went to the back kitchen and was directing Mrs. Zhang to quickly prepare some portable cakes, dried vegetables and the like so that they could take them on the road to satisfy everyone's hunger.

"Okay, it's almost there."

Wan Ning looked at the prepared food and said, "Don't forget to bring the cooking utensils. We will have to sleep outdoors during this journey."

Mrs. Zhang and her daughter nodded and agreed, "We won't forget, don't worry, Second Miss."

Nodding, Wan Ning went out.

At this time, her personal maid Yuhua also came over and said, "Miss, all the things you need to bring have been loaded onto the carriage."

Wan Ning waved her hand: "Okay, go find my elder sister."

Walking in the courtyard, Wan Ning was already familiar with every flower and grass here. She had been here for nearly a year. At that time, her body was burning hot and she felt dizzy. She had a fever for several days before it went down.

At that time, Wan Ning secretly asked 321 for cold medicine, and the cold only subsided after two doses. He lay in bed for more than ten days without being able to get out of bed, which was really terrifying.

When she reached the gate, Xu Jinyu just saw Wan Ning coming out.

He waved to Wan Ning, and Wan Ning immediately walked over.

"It's really hard for our second daughter today. She got up so early for the first time in her life."

Wan Ning held Xu Jinyu's hand and said, "Sister, I am usually very diligent. Besides, it was you who asked me to rest more, so it's not my fault."

"Okay, sister knows."

Xu Jinyu felt emotional as she helped her sister straighten the collar and shoulders of her clothes.

"In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ning has grown up and is almost as tall as her sister."

Yes, Wan Ning is now sixteen. Xu Jinyu is only two years older than her sister, but she has already supported the family.

Wan Ning also nodded: "Well, I have to catch up with my sister as soon as possible, so that I can help you share the burden."

Knowing that her sister felt sorry for her, Xu Jinyu touched her hair.

Then the two sisters got on the carriage, and with Xu Jinyu's command to set off, several carriages started moving one after another.

Accompanying the two sisters of the Xu family were seven or eight servants and guards from the mansion, as well as a team of bodyguards hired from the Qingcheng Escort Agency.

Wan Ning sat in the cushioned carriage, and she began to sway as the wheels turned.

"Sister, are you willing to do that?"

Xu Jinyu smiled bitterly when she heard Wan Ning's words: "Of course I'm reluctant to leave. This is our home."

"You grew up here little by little, and I started to manage the shop with my father and learn to keep accounts and check accounts. Now, we are leaving.

I always feel sorry for my parents for not protecting this family well."

Hearing Xu Jinyu say this, Wan Ning immediately leaned over and held her arm.

"Sister, you are already amazing. Really, you are the most amazing person I have ever met.

Haven't you seen that our shop is making more and more money than when Dad was here?"

Wan Ning leaned his head on Xu Jinyu's shoulder: "Besides, you pamper me even more."

If it weren't for a young man named Liu who came to the house again and again and threatened to marry Xu Jinyu.

After being rejected by Xu Jinyu, he often went to Xu's shop to meet her by chance, spending huge sums of money and harassing her by reciting poems and lyrics.

Xu Jinyu sought help from the local Lord Qin, but he just told them not to cause trouble.

Because that Young Master Liu came from Jindu and was said to be connected to the royal family, he could not be easily offended.

Xu Jinyu really couldn't marry a man who often went to brothels to play with girls, but the good relationships that Xu's father had established when he was alive earlier could not always protect them. So there was no other way, and the two sisters had to go to Yuanzhou to find their aunt.

Xu Jinyu touched her sister Wan Ning's hand: "Of course, we are sisters."

"Well, it's better to get divorced. When the storm is calm, we can come back. Okay?"

Wan Ning nodded: "Okay, wherever my sister goes, I will go too."

But deep down, Wan Ning was sighing that after this trip away from home, he didn't know whether the heroine would ever have a chance to come back.

Yes, the heroine this time is Xu Jinyu, a business woman who was born in a merchant family and eventually made a name for herself in the business world.

Because they got up early, they were the first in line to leave the city.

At dawn, the east gate was opened, and the soldiers guarding the city checked and let them pass.

The carriage slowly drove out of the city gate. Xu Jinyu lifted the curtain again, and Wan Ning also looked over.

On the tall city gate is written: Chenzhou City.

After looking for a while, the curtain was lowered and Xu Jinyu leaned against the wall of the carriage.

Seeing this, Wan Ning quickly advised her: "Sister, take a rest."

Xu Jinyu nodded, and Wan Ning also took out a blanket to cover himself, then lay in the car and closed his eyes to catch up on his sleep.

She got up too early today and she is not in the mood.

When Wan Ning opened her eyes again, her elder sister Xu Jinyu was no longer in the carriage. Wan Ning lifted the small curtain of the lattice window and saw the servants making a fire and boiling water.

Sitting up, Wan Ning stretched, straightened his hair and clothes, and got off the carriage.
