The process of viewing the shop went smoothly. When negotiating the price, the other party was very sincere. However, when Xia Daohua looked at the owner of the shop, she felt inexplicably familiar with him.
After completing the handover formalities and riding her little black donkey slowly on the street, Xia Daohua suddenly remembered that the owner of this shop looked about 70% similar to Mr. Feng.
If that person's surname was not Feng, she wouldn't have waited so long before remembering Mr. Feng.
People have similarities, but their surnames are different. This person is probably not related to Mr. Feng.
Xia Daohua was thinking this, but she didn't know that the owner of this shop was just a cousin of Feng Juren's aunt. Feng Juren and his family had also experienced more than half a year of wandering and had only recently arrived in Jixiang County.
Mr. Feng and his family encountered several groups of bandits on the way. Many of the servants and hired bodyguards were killed, and the family was separated twice.
Fortunately, Mr. Feng had anticipated that he might encounter some accidents on the way, and he made an agreement with his family on the place, time, and secret code for them to meet if they were separated.
They walked all the way to Ping'an County before they were able to reunite their scattered family members.
However, this large family was separated and then reunited, so population loss was inevitable.
Mr. Feng lost two concubines, three maids, and a son born to a concubine along the way, and his eldest son-in-law also disappeared.
After the younger daughter was separated from Mr. Feng, she encountered robbers.
In a moment of panic and fear of being humiliated, he bumped into the thief's knife and was seriously injured and bleeding profusely.
Fortunately, the son-in-law was a reliable person. Seeing that his wife was injured, he tried his best to rescue her. He threw away all the gifts and belongings, carried his wife onto a horse, and stabbed the horse's butt. With great difficulty, the couple escaped with their lives.
In the second half of the journey, the injured horse gradually became exhausted, so the son-in-law carried his little daughter on his back. Fortunately, they were not far from the county town at that time.
After entering Qingliu County, the couple paid a high price to stay in an inn.
That night, Mr. Feng's little daughter developed a high fever. Mr. Feng's son-in-law took out the silver he had hidden on his body and asked for medical treatment and medicine for his daughter-in-law. After much difficulty, he finally saved his daughter-in-law.
After the family was reunited, the youngest daughter and son-in-law were so thin that they looked unrecognizable. Thrown into the crowd, they looked no different from ordinary refugees.
Even Mr. Feng, who was originally a wealthy man with a big belly, became as thin as a stick.
Mr. Feng's family knew that the Xia family had taken root in Jixiang County, but they did not intend to recognize the Xia family because they had complicated feelings towards the Xia family.
Firstly, the Xia family had the merit of informing them of the danger and giving them warnings and reminders.
Secondly, compared to them, the Xia family was originally a poor family that had a few acres of land but still needed to rent out the land for farming. However, not long after arriving in Jixiang County, they became wealthy.
However, the Feng family lost a lot of property on the way to escape, and after arriving in Jixiang County, they spent a lot of money to settle down.
These ups and downs inevitably caused some disappointment to Mr. Feng's family.
Thirdly, the robber who injured the youngest daughter was also somewhat connected to the Xia family. Although Xia Jinhua was dressed as a thief's wife, she was still a beauty. The son-in-law recognized her at first sight.
At that time, he was only concerned with escaping with his wife and did not bother to pursue the matter. But when he thought about it later, he hated Xia Jinhua to the bone.
After the Feng family arrived in Jixiang County, they found their cousin's family and settled down with the help of their cousin. After hesitating for a few days, they carefully inquired about the current situation and actions of the Xia family. In the end, they decided not to seek revenge on the Xia family, but they were also unwilling to contact the Xia family again.
Therefore, the Xia family did not know that Mr. Feng and his family had arrived in Jixiang County.
The Feng family had just arrived and was still in the adaptation stage, so they were very well-behaved and rarely went out. The Xia family, apart from a few people who were doing business and working, were busy all day long and no one liked to go out.
We have never met each other before.
In fact, Mr. Feng knew a little about his cousin selling the shop, but he didn't know that the buyer was Xia Daohua.
Otherwise, there's no guarantee that they might interfere.
The thought of the Feng family only flashed through Xia Daohua's mind, and then it was forgotten. Not long after, her thoughts returned to this shop.
She carefully observed the location, orientation, and layout of the shop and found no feng shui problems.
If there really is any feng shui problem, it is most likely that the carpenter was offended and did something when he was laying the foundation or putting up the beams.
Xia Daohua plans to renovate first.
She has always wanted to open a teahouse. The location of this shop is quite good, so it would be a good idea to open a teahouse there.
However, she still doesn't have many people to use.
If there is no traitor in "Puji Rescue", she would like to use the people there.
But now that there is a traitor, a ruthless person who is willing to personally drug those dogs that everyone likes, it is becoming increasingly difficult to decide on the right person.
Otherwise, if you choose someone with strong abilities, only to find out later that the person has betrayed you, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?
Xia Daohua rode the little black donkey, slowly and leisurely letting it walk freely.
I closed my eyes, basked in the sun, and thought about things. I was so comfortable that I almost fell asleep.
As a result, he was distracted and bumped into some playboys who were having fun riding horses on the street.
After Xia Daohua took the gold, silver, pearls and jade from them, County Magistrate Yang sent many people out to catch the thief, but failed. These most noisy ones could not stay in the inn any longer, so they took the silver and money that Gu Shanrou lent them and went out to have fun.
They came because they really couldn't sit still and wanted to have some fun;
Secondly, I also want to go fishing.
Just hoping to meet that little thief who stole from you without anyone noticing again!
County Magistrate Yang had already plowed all the ground in Jixiang County, but no thief had claimed responsibility for the crime. They became impatient and decided to catch the thieves themselves.
The most flamboyant and uninhibited were at the front, stirring up trouble. The more sinister, cautious, and suspicious were supporting them from behind. They had already wreaked havoc on several restaurants along the way.
Xia Daohua didn't know what they had done, but she wasn't happy to be woken by a bunch of noisy people when she was almost asleep. Then she looked at these people in bright clothes and on horses, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Since they've come out to cause trouble again in such a blatant manner, it's clear they've brought too much silver. These guys can't have too much silver on them. If they have too much, they'll inevitably show off and cause trouble to others.
Xia Daohua smiled slightly.
After giving the little black donkey a gentle pat on the head, it obediently leaned to the side of the road, its little hooves clattering as it turned into an alley very nimbly.
The playboys rushed past the road that was originally covered with swaying summer rice flowers, raising a cloud of yellow-brown dust.
