Upon hearing this, Constable Hong took a glance at her and thought that although she was young, she had a keen mind, which was in line with his own thoughts. He had been keeping an eye on those sea envoys and had frequented those buildings recently, but that was sothing he had no intention of revealing.
He said, "Hmm, what you said makes sense. I’ll think about it when I get back."
Seeing that only Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an had co off the carriage, he added, "You’re quite bold, little girl, coming to the town without any adults. The criminal hasn’t been caught yet, and he has appeared again recently, making the town quite dangerous. When you go ho, don’t co to town unless it’s absolutely necessary."
"Alright, I understand. We’re having guests at ho today, so I ca out to buy so things," Yang Chuxia replied.
"Alright, since you have sothing going on at ho, I won’t keep you any longer. Once this matter is settled, we’ll have a good chat," Constable Hong said before watching Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an board their carriage and riding away with his n.
Upon arriving at Yangshu Village, Ms.Wang and Old Aunt-in-law Gen were washing vegetables when they saw Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an. They hurried out to help carry the things.
"Oh, why did you buy so much at?" Old Aunt-in-law Gen asked.
"With so many people eating every day, it’s more convenient to buy more and keep it at ho." Yang Chuxia thought about Constable Hong’s reminder and said, "Aunt-in-law, when we get ho tonight, tell your daughter not to run around. I heard that the thieves have been causing trouble again these days."
"Really?"
"Indeed, I just happened to run into Constable Hong on the road, and he told ."
"These damn thieves should be caught and sliced into a thousand pieces! They’ve caused so much harm to so many girls!" Old Gen’s anger was apparent through her gritted teeth.
Ms.Wang felt the sa way.
"Mom, let’s make so atballs with this at tonight. Both Brother An and I like them," Yang Chuxia interrupted their curses against the thieves and said, bringing in a piece of pork belly.
Old Aunt-in-law Gen saw that Yang Chuxia had already brought so much at and now there was another piece specifically for making atballs. She couldn’t help but envy the Yang family’s lifestyle. However, when she saw Ms.Luo enter, she rembered all the troubles the Yang family had and her envy diminished.
Although her own family wasn’t very wealthy, they lived a decent life without such troubles. It was more comfortable to live a relatively stress-free life.
Seeing Ms.Luo with Ms.Liu, Yang Chuxia’s expression darkened.
"What are you doing here? Anything important?" Yang Chuxia never had a friendly face when dealing with the Yang family, so her tone wasn’t very polite either.
Ms.Luo, relying on the fact that her husband and Yang Dachuan were brothers, acted tough. Now that Old Lady Hua wasn’t around to suppress her, she stood even straighter with much more arrogance than Ms.Liu.
She said, "Look at how this girl talks. Your fourth aunt has sothing to do, of course. Aren’t you inviting everyone over for dinner tonight? I think your mother will be too busy alone, so I ca to help."
In her heart, though, Ms.Luo didn’t want to help at all. She was only here for the al, thinking that if she helped tonight, she could eat at the third branch of the family. Having experienced their fare before, her eyes were already sizing up the dishes on the table, and when she saw the amount of at, her eyes glead with interest.
