”Second Sister, you took so long to return. Have you enjoyed your chat?” Mo Xiaoyan secretly laughed and said.
”You just left. Not long later, Big Brother Cheng also returned. I came back after embroidering some flowers in the shop.” Mo Xiaoxia said somewhat embarrassedly.
”It's almost dark, I have to go back now. Second Sister, Sister Chuyue, I will go back first.” Mo Xiaoyan looked up to the sky, stood up and said.
”Xiaoyan, why don't we stay here for the night?” When Mo Xiaoxia saw that Mo Xiaoyan was alone in the shop, it was extremely quiet.
”Second Sister, no, it's pretty close. I'll be going back soon.” Mo Xiaoyan thought that Wang Xiuqin would definitely go to the shop earlier tomorrow morning.
”Then go faster, it's going to be dark soon.” Mo Xiaoxia warned.
”Alright, I understand. I'll go back first.” After Mo Xiaoyan left the shop, she sped up her footsteps and walked inside.
After washing up at night, he was just about to go to bed when his stomach growled again. He must be hungry.
If he was hungry, he definitely wouldn't be able to sleep. Mo Xiaoyan thought for a while, then went to the kitchen to make a simple meal before going to sleep.
As she was tired during the day, Mo Xiaoyan did not fall asleep either. Not long after lying down, she fell asleep.
In the morning, when the sky was still gray and bright, she was still sleepy. However, she still donned her clothes and got up, making some food first. Wang Xiuqin must have come back early, and did not know how long she would take to drive the ox-cart to Water Facing Town.
Therefore, he wanted to leave early and try his best to make it back on the same day.
After boiling some hot water to wash his face, he then went to make breakfast. It was already bright by the time he finished eating.
Mo Xiaoyan then went to the front and opened the shop's door, waiting for Mo Dalin, Lady Li and the others to come over so she could look after the shop. After that, Wang Xiuqin could begin her journey.
After opening the door, Mo Xiaoyan went out to see that there were still no signs of people on the streets.
Mo Xiaoyan went back to the shop and sat down, waiting for them to come back.
Finally, Mo Linyu drove the ox-cart along with Mo Dalin and the Lady Li over. The Lady Li walked into the shop and saw Mo Xiaoyan sitting there.
He asked with concern: ”Xiaoyan, did you eat breakfast this morning?”
”Mom, I just ate. Have you guys eaten yet?” Mo Xiaoyan asked.
”We also ate. We just came over after dinner. How is it? Has the girl not come yet?” The Lady Li saw that Mo Xiaoyan was alone in the shop.
”Yeah, it's still early. I'll probably be coming over in a while.” Mo Xiaoyan had told Mo Linyu to come earlier this morning.
”Oh, then you wait here for me. I'll go to the kitchen to take a look first.” Lady Li thought that it was still early, so she decided to pack up first. Mo Dalin, on the other hand, was in charge of buying meat.
”Mom, thank you for your hard work today.” Mo Xiaoyan said sensibly.
”We're all family, why are you saying this?” Lady Li laughed and said.
Just a moment ago, Mo Xiaoyan was still feeling anxious, why is Wang Xiuqin still not coming over?
But one thing that Mo Xiaoyan had forgotten, she had been walking around since she arrived at home and it took him a while to reach there.
”Xiaoyan, am I late?” Wang Xiuqin gasped for breath as she walked into the shop quickly.
”No, it's fine if we leave now, but let's hurry up and set off.” Mo Xiaoyan stood up and walked outside.
Mo Linyu also followed them out. He first went to catch the oxcart, and after the two of them sat on it, Mo Linyu drove the oxcart away.
