An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

Standing by the window with Jing Chunxi, looking at the night view outside, the two were silent for a long time.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Tao Jin's eyes fell on Jing Chunxi's high collar and asked, "Are you wearing that jade?"

His voice was soft, but filled with concern.

Jing Chunxi was stunned for a moment, then realized what he meant. She nodded and whispered, "Yes."

After saying that, she subconsciously reached in and took out the black jade.

However, Tao Jin gently pressed her hand to stop her movement.

His voice was still gentle, but with a hint of undeniable firmness: "Wear it all the time."

He paused, then continued, "When you get to Jian'an, you must enter through the north gate. After you go in, go to Jian'an Pharmacy to find Manager Tao. You don't need to stay in this shabby house now."

Jing Chunxi was slightly startled, then realized what Tao Jin meant. She felt a little warm in her heart, nodded, and said seriously, "Okay!"

She understood Tao Jin's arrangement. Jian'an County was an unfamiliar place, and having the locals take care of her was always a good thing.

The shopkeeper with the surname Tao must be from the Tao family. People like him are trustworthy, otherwise Tao Jin would not have given her such special instructions.

Jing Chunxi was secretly grateful in her heart. Although she didn't say it, she kept this friendship in her heart.

The two returned to the dining table. Jing Chunxi lowered his head to look at the wrinkled handkerchief on the table, which was still stained with his tears and snot, and looked a little embarrassed.

She felt a little annoyed, and couldn't even bring herself to say "wash it and return it to Tao Jin." After hesitating for a moment, she was about to apologize, but Tao Jin beat her to the punch.

"Please embroider a few more handkerchiefs for me. I forgot to bring more from home this time. Now I'm one hand less because of you." Tao Jin looked at her frowning and troubled face and thought she was very cute. He quickly gave her a way out.

Jing Chunxi raised her head and looked at Tao Jin's half-smile. Her cheeks flushed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. She snorted softly and said, "Alright, I'll cover your handkerchief from now on."

It is easier to embroider a handkerchief than a purse. Just lock the four sides, pick two blades of grass and embroider three or four flowers and you are done. Its simplicity is practical and beautiful.

As soon as Jing Chunxi said this, Tao Jin couldn't help but chuckle. His smile was filled with a hint of doting, and he said, "Then I'll wait in Jian'an."

Jing Chunxi felt a little uncomfortable with his smile, rolled his eyes at him and said nothing more.

But she felt a warmth in her heart. Tao Jin's arrangements and care made her feel that even though the road ahead was difficult, she was no longer so lonely.

As they walked downstairs, the street was still brightly lit and bustling with activity. Red lanterns hung high above, illuminating the street like daylight.

The shops lining the streets were still bustling with activity, and laughter could be heard everywhere from restaurants, teahouses, and theaters. The colorful signs swayed gently in the night breeze, reflecting the lights, making them look particularly dazzling.

However, behind this prosperity lies the decadence and debauchery of a few people. Officials are only concerned with having fun and completely ignore the suffering of the people.

Tao Jin protected Jing Chunxi and walked in front with steady steps.

The group walked out of the restaurant. The night wind outside was a little cool, and it stung their faces a little.

Tao Jin walked to the carriage parked at the door and gently patted the wall, signaling the driver to prepare to depart. He then deliberately leaned in to take a look around the carriage, as if to confirm whether it was safe, before helping Jing Chunxi into the carriage.

"Follow up."

Jing Chunxi signaled Ah Qi behind him with his eyes and spoke in a low voice.

Ah Qi nodded and immediately turned around to arrange for other people to get on their horses and get on their cars.
