When Baili Xiao returned home, he couldn't calm down as he recalled the soft touch and the melodious voice like a nightingale singing in his ear.

I never expected to run into her in this situation. I just slapped her. She's so small, how come she's so chubby? I wonder if I flattened her...

Baili Xiao opened his bundle, took out a small porcelain bottle, and then went out again...

Yaomei woke up early the next morning.

She opened her eyes and burst into tears, calling out for her sister as she cried.

After a night, Xia Chunmei felt her chest hurt even more, but at this moment Yaomei was crying so hard that she couldn't care less about the pain. She quickly hugged Yaomei and gently coaxed her, "Don't cry, don't cry, your older sister is here, don't cry, don't cry."

Seeing familiar faces and smelling familiar scents, Yaomei finally stopped crying after a while.

“Yaomei is frightened.” Xia Ping’an felt very sad to see his daughter crying so sadly.

“Now that my aunt is capable of handling things on her own, I’ll let her take charge of the cooking while I stay home with my sisters for a while.”

Xia Chunmei felt her chest was hurting more when she woke up today, and she would probably need to rest for a while. That bastard really hurt her.

Luckily, I had some martial arts skills, otherwise I probably would have ended up like the other robbers.

“By the way, the man you fought yesterday came after you fell asleep last night,” Xia Pingan said. “He left a bottle of medicine on the table.”

Xia Chunmei then noticed that there was indeed a small porcelain bottle on the table.

"Is the medicine meant for me to be so good?"

"Does this guy know I'm the one-night stand girl?" Xia Chunmei thought to herself.

"Aren't you going to take Yaomei to the clinic for a follow-up check-up later? Give the medicine to the doctor first and let him take a look," Xia Ping'an reminded her. "It's always better to be cautious."

"Is Chunmei awake?" Xia Xintian's voice rang out from outside.

Xia Chunmei opened the door while holding Yaomei: "Uncle, you're all up."

“Yes, Chunmei, it’s been less than a night since we got back to the village. I wonder how worried your aunt is,” Xia Xintian said.

It wasn't just Xia Hongfen who was worried; Xia Xintian and Xia Huohua's families probably didn't sleep all night either.

Xia Chunmei thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, I'm going to report this to the authorities. Why don't one of you go back first and send a message home?"

Xia Huohua, looking shocked, exclaimed, "Now that Yaomei has been rescued, Chunmei, you still want to go to the yamen?"

They didn't know Xia Chunmei's specific plans; up until now, they only believed that Xia Chunmei's friends from the Du family had told her about Yaomei.

“Yaomei has been rescued, but I still need to make money. I can’t keep all three of my sisters tied to my belt. There will always be times when I’m negligent. So I have to solve this problem at its root.”

“Chunmei is right. They made a mistake this time, and there’s no guarantee they won’t do it again. There are always times when they make mistakes. And if they make a mistake this time, they will definitely be more accurate and ruthless next time. It will be even more difficult to rescue them then,” Xia Xintian said. “Here’s what we’ll do. I’ll accompany Chunmei to the yamen to report to the authorities, and Huohua can go back and let them know that everything is alright.”

"That's fine, I'll set off now."

"Don't rush, let's go get some breakfast first."

We can't let them go home hungry since they've come out to help.

It's still early morning, let's have a hearty breakfast first, then it won't be too late to start the battle.

Yaomei slept for so long yesterday, she must be hungry.

The four people ordered four bowls of plain noodles and four boiled eggs from a stall outside the inn.

"Chunmei, there's no need to order so much. You gave Officer Zhang money last night, and the accommodation cost so much. Let's just have something simple for breakfast." Xia Huohua felt sorry for Xia Chunmei, seeing her spending money like water. "You two have a long life ahead of you."

"Uncle, it's alright. Money is meant to be spent, so please don't be shy. Let's just have something simple to eat today. Once things are settled, I'll cook a proper meal myself to thank you all."

"If that's how you put it, then I won't hold back, haha, we're all drooling over your cooking."

...

After breakfast, Xia Chunmei, carrying Yaomei, went to the yamen to report the crime, accompanied by Xia Xintian...
