”Not yet. She's very careful. It won't be that easy to find her.” Su Jinxuan was also troubled by this matter.
”Sigh, let's investigate slowly then. Don't be too anxious so as to not arouse her suspicions.” Mo Xiaoyan sighed and said.
”Of course I know that. Alright, it's cold outside, let's go in and rest. I need to go back as well.” Su Jinxuan walked over and gently hugged Mo Xiaoyan, and only after a while did he let her go and walk out with extreme reluctance.
When Su Jinxuan returned, he did not immediately return to the house. Originally, he was very tired, but the moment he came out and was blown by the cold wind, he immediately felt much more energetic, and not sleepy at all.
The yard outside was already covered with a thick layer of snow. Since she couldn't sleep now, Mo Xiaoyan ran into the courtyard and started to make snowmen.
Although it was already night time, it was not dark outside so he could still see clearly. After piling up for a while, a snowman that was not too big appeared, causing Mo Xiaoyan's hands to become completely red.
And all of these were clearly seen by Chu Moran, as he thought that Mo Xiaoyan was rather childish, to be able to play in the courtyard without sleeping at night.
Far away from the capital, in the Mo Dalin family, no one slept during the entire night that was frozen in the carriage. In the morning, they wanted to drink a mouthful of water, but they found that even the water had frozen over.
”What should we do? The water is frozen, and the snow outside has not stopped. ” Mo Dalin was a little anxious, he could not possibly be trapped to death here. Furthermore, there was not much rations left on the horse carriage, if he did not hurry, he might really starve to death.
”Father, I don't think the snow outside is too heavy. Let's start our journey now. It's better to walk slower than waiting here.” Mo Linyu said from outside.
”That's right, I saw that Dongxue's nose was running cold. We have to hurry and find an inn to warm him up.” Lady Li saw Mo Dongxue's face turn red from the cold and felt her heart ache.
However, Mo Dongxue was indeed very obedient, and did not cry in such a cold weather. This made Liu Yuemei very pleased.
As for Xing Er, who was sitting to the side, the clothes she was wearing were also relatively thin. Liu Yuemei used the thicker clothes to cover herself up, as she was afraid of freezing Mo Dongxue, so he didn't have any extra clothes for Xing Er to wear.
Lady Li originally wanted to find a piece of clothes for Xing Er to wear, but seeing how old Lady Li's clothes were, Xing Er refused and said that she wasn't cold.
Xing Er had hoped that Mo Xiaoxia had lent her some clothes to wear, but in her heart, Mo Xiaoxia did not think that way.
After travelling for half a day, they finally arrived at a town. As soon as they arrived, the few people in the town began to inquire about where the tavern was.
It had been one or two days since they last had a hot meal, and the first thing they did when they arrived at the inn was to order a large table of food. The people were hungry and ate quickly.
Mo Linyu noticed that Xing Er almost did not eat much, there were very little food on the table, it seemed like she did not have enough to eat.
”Xing Er, since you ate so little just now, you definitely haven't had your fill. Let me order more dishes for you, otherwise, how can you be hungry?” Mo Linyu now treated Xing Er as his own sister, so he was also rather concerned about her.
”No need, Brother Mo, I'm full.” Xing Er lowered her head and whispered.
