After eating, Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming went back to the room, and the task of washing the dishes naturally fell to the strange man.
As soon as they entered the room, Yang Ming said, "Wife, let sleep for a while first, you go prepare so dry rations, and when I wake up, we’ll set off and leave this Anding Village."
"Husband, are you sure? How about we leave tomorrow morning?" Xiaoxiao hesitated a little.
She was worried that Yang Ming was too tired. With Yang Ming’s nature, he would definitely rush back day and night without much rest.
"Wife, let’s leave this afternoon. We’ll first go to the town, settle Shitou’s family, find a carriage, send the two of them back to the Grand Theater, and then we can go directly to Anyi Village."
"Okay, I’ll listen to you, go ahead and sleep." Seeing Yang Ming insist on leaving, Xiaoxiao had no choice but to agree. After all, ti was really running short for them, and it would take several more days to reach that Anyi Village.
Yang Ming was truly exhausted and fell asleep as soon as he lay down, even starting to snore.
Xiaoxiao felt very sorry for him, so she took the child and left the room, not wanting the child’s cries to wake him up.
After leaving the room, Xiaoxiao went to find Shitou’s family and tell them about the departure. This ti they were leaving openly, and since they had a carriage, it would be okay if Shitou’s family wanted to bring along a few simple things.
Shitou’s family was happy to agree upon hearing this, and they were all looking forward to the life ahead.
Since Xiaoxiao had to prepare dry rations, she put the child into a small basket and asked Shitou’s family to help watch over it at the kitchen door.
Due to being trapped in Anding Village for days, the food they brought was almost gone, just enough for the final batch of dry rations.
They really were at their last but at least they could buy more food once they reached the town.
Xiaoxiao was busy preparing dry rations in the kitchen, while Shitou’s family watched the child outside. Little Shitou even sang songs to Little Liufu from ti to ti, keeping the atmosphere quite pleasant.
No one knew what was up with that strange man today, he didn’t co to cause trouble. Perhaps it was because Yang Ming had returned?
But whatever the reason, Xiaoxiao was glad for the peace since he didn’t co to bother her.
Due to being so busy, making dry rations, bathing Little Liufu, feeding him, and so on, ti flew by swiftly.
In the midst of all the hustle, afternoon had arrived. Once done, not wanting to disturb Yang Ming’s sleep, Xiaoxiao took the child to sit in the courtyard.
Yang Ming was in a deep sleep, he truly was very tired, having barely rested for two days and nights. Coming back with the governnt officer ant he couldn’t travel as fast as when he went to the County by himself, taking an extra night.
Yang Ming awoke to find it already afternoon. Seeing the room empty, he realized his wife had probably left to avoid waking him.
Seeing it was getting late, Yang Ming got up and left the room.
As soon as Yang Ming walked out, Xiaoxiao noticed him, "Husband, quickly go wash up, and then have a al."
Yang Ming hurried to wash and eat, and after the al, the group decided to set off.
Yang Ming organized their bags of belongings, placing them all onto the carriage, and the little goat was placed on the special seat at the back of the carriage.
Once everything was prepared, the group headed toward the main gate, not caring about that strange man.
But before they could get on the carriage, the strange man in the courtyard ran over, "Girl, let go with you, you can’t leave here."
