After the two of them arrived, they had been waiting at the city gate. After waiting an entire afternoon, the official finally let them in not long ago.
The two of them went straight to the shop after the capital but found it locked. They didn’t know where Shu Yu went, so they became even more anxious.
Shu Yu put down the cat in her arms and explained to the two of them,
“Something did happen in the county. The county magistrate of Jiangyuan County seemed to have committed a crime and was arrested. His son fled out of the city. The two days have been searching for him, so he closed the city gate. Now that the person had been caught, everything was fine.”
Daya and Daniu couldn’t help but widen their eyes. “Such a big thing happened?”
Even the county magistrate was arrested!
They hadn’t come to the county town for two days, and Jiangyuan County had already changed. He wondered what the new county magistrate was like. If he were still the same as the original county magistrate, then the lives of the common people would still be difficult.
For some reason, she felt a little worried.
However, this worry was instantly thrown to the back of their mind when they saw the newly renovated shop.
When they came here earlier, the shop was still in a mess. Now, it was neat and tidy and still very bright.
“Yu, the shop is renovated?”
Joy flashed across their faces. They were very excited when they thought about the opening ceremony.
Shu Yu nodded. “It’s all done. Next, we’ll decorate ourselves and hang the clothes up.”
Daya looked up at the empty shop, her mind already imagining what the customers would look like.
Daniu also chuckled. Then, he told Shu Yu, “Yu, since you’re fine, I’ll go back first. Since the city gates are not closed yet, I’ll go home and tell the healers so they won’t worry. Daya should stay here to save herself the trouble of rushing here and there.”
Shu Yu was stunned. “Are you leaving now already?”
Shu Yu looked at the time. If it were dark, it would not be safe to go back. She didn’t stop him. “Alright, take the mule cart back. I’ll have to trouble you to bring the milk, the rest over tomorrow, and the clothes and mannequins that have already been made.”
Daniu nodded. “Alright.”
He went to the backyard to pull the mule cart out. Shu Yu bought him a bag of meat buns and asked him to take it to eat on the road. Now that he had returned home, he could not make it in time for dinner.
After the two girls sent Daniu off, they ate food on the street and slowly walked toward the shop.
Looking at the brightly lit shops along the street and the pedestrians laughing,
Daya felt a rare calmness.
It seemed like she had never experienced something before.
“Yu, everything at home has been fine since you returned.”
Shu Yu suddenly heard her speak and turned around. He saw that Daya was looking up at the sky with a relaxed and warm smile on her lips. After leaving the suffocating and oppressive environment of the Zhang family, it was as if her entire person had sublimated.
Shu Yu smiled. “Me too.” It felt good to have a family.
Shu Yu could improve the material satisfaction of the Lu familys life, but the Lu family gave her spiritual wealth.
The two sisters looked at each other and smiled before happily returning to the shop.
The next morning, as she was still considering renting a house, she prepared to leave early.
Daya originally wanted to go with her, but Shu Yu thought about it and stopped her. “Sister, you should stay in the shop. We don’t know when father and mother will come. If there’s no one in the shop when they come, they will have to wait outside..”
