As soon as Huizi stepped outside, she saw a light drizzle. Her heart sank. The worst thing for a breakfast vendor was rain, as it would waste a lot of time. She took a parasol out of her cart, tied it to the tricycle, and slowly pushed it toward the alley entrance, praying that the rain wouldn't get too heavy.
But the heavens did not hear her prayers. Soon the rain intensified, and dense raindrops pelted Huizi. The May morning was still chilly, so Huizi had to put her raincoat back on. Her heart was heavy, and she had a feeling that something was about to happen.
Despite Keiko's quick and efficient work, her business was slow due to the heavy rain. Many people were unwilling to go out of their way to buy her rice balls and opted to buy other things nearby to tide them over.
Huizi looked at the remaining half-full bucket of glutinous rice and couldn't help but smile bitterly. She decided to walk a little further and sell it on the street. Maybe there would be more people there. Glutinous rice has to be fresh to taste good. If she didn't sell it all today, she would have to throw it away, which would be such a waste.
Gongsun Yu, on the other hand, was completely clueless. The old lady had no name or surname and left no clues, so he had no way to find her. The people sent by Miao Tianxiong and Ding Ba also had no news. Hui Zi was very careful and did not talk to anyone while cooking, and did not mention her own affairs at all.
"Keep searching, we must find her!" Gong Yi said firmly.
He would never go back until he found Huizi and Zhu'er.
"Great-grandfather, is this old lady an old friend of yours?" Gongsun Yu asked doubtfully.
Gong Yi closed his eyes and after a long while said, "Don't worry about that, let's find the person first."
The time is not right yet. He doesn't know what Huizi and her daughter went through 26 years ago. Moreover, Huizi has been hiding her identity all these years, preferring to live a hard life rather than reveal her true identity. She must have her reasons. He can't harm Huizi and her daughter.
First, find the person, and then ask him for details. No matter who the other party is, he will protect Huizi and her daughter.
The Gong family has already paid the price; it's time to settle the blood debt from forty-eight years ago!
Gongsun Yu and Ding Ba had no choice but to go find someone else. However, Ding Ba's walking style was a bit strange, which made Gongsun Yu want to laugh. He teased, "Uncle, were you a little too passionate on your wedding night last night?"
His neck was twisted to the side, you can imagine what the situation was like!
Ding Ba, his neck crooked, was so uncomfortable he just wanted to curse. He glared at Gongsun Yu angrily, "Intense my ass! You shrew, just you wait, I'll deal with her sooner or later!"
He spent the whole night huddled on the sofa, feeling cold and stifled. He even woke up with a stiff neck in the morning. He was so miserable, all because of that damn woman!
"Who are you going to deal with?" A cold voice came from behind.
Ding Ba shuddered violently, cold sweat pouring down his face. He slowly turned around, patted Gongsun Yu heavily on the shoulder beside him, and said with a forced smile, "Hehe... disciplining my disobedient nephew, good morning, what would you like to drink?"
Miao Tianxiong gave him a cold look, then turned and left. She was going to pay her respects to Gong Yi. Miao Tianxiang had said that since they were married, they had to follow the rules, especially in the first few days. They had to pay their respects to the old man morning and evening so that people wouldn't say that the Miao family was ill-mannered.
Gongsun Yu rubbed his sore shoulders, glanced disdainfully at Ding Ba who was still sweating profusely, and smiled in a way that was more like crying. Was it really necessary? He thought his aunt was quite nice. Although she didn't talk much, she was very reasonable and capable. You couldn't find such a good wife even with a lantern!
