The atmosphere was heavy. Two servants were accompanying a middle-aged man walking towards this side. The little girl saw her master and hurriedly saluted him.
County Magistrate Zheng waved his hand. As he approached, he saw his daughter's red eyes, and his heart couldn't help but relax. He wanted to scold his daughter, but his words turned into comforting: "What's wrong? Are you still angry with your father?"
Zheng Hui quickly rubbed her red eyes and introduced herself to County Magistrate Zheng: "This is a friend I just met. She is telling me a story!"
Li Yan saw her introducing herself to County Magistrate Zheng, and hurriedly stood up and saluted County Magistrate Zheng, but she was complaining in her heart, this is your friend, you may not even know your friend's name!
County Magistrate Zheng then remembered the reason why he was looking for his daughter in the backyard. The child's father was still waiting for his daughter in the front hall!
He pretended to scold her, "You kid, even if you bring someone to your home as a guest, you still need their permission, right? How can you be so reckless!"
He smiled and explained to Li Yan, "This child has just arrived with me and has no playmates. Her behavior today was really inappropriate. I will have someone send you to meet your father."
Zheng Hui also knew that it was reckless to bring someone home so suddenly today. She sniffed and said in a muffled voice, "I'll take you out!"
Li Yan followed Zheng Hui out the door. The little girl explained to herself, "I'm really sorry for today. I just arrived here and don't have any playmates. My father hasn't allowed me to go out lately. Can you come over and tell me a story tomorrow?"
Li Yan thought about it and realized that she had nothing to do at home recently, so she nodded and agreed.
Zheng Hui finally smiled. She knew that this request was a bit unreasonable, but her father had not allowed her to go out recently, so she had to find another way.
After sending Li Yan to the side door, he took a bag of snacks from the maid behind him and stuffed it into Li Yan's hands: "This is the snack I like to eat every day. Take some back and try it. It's my apology for today!"
Hearing her say this, Li Yan no longer refused.
When I walked from the side door to the yamen gate, I found Daya standing at the door nervously. When she saw Li Yan coming out, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He hurried forward and looked his cousin up and down. Seeing that she was safe and sound, he felt relieved. After a while, his father also came out of the yamen.
Seeing that his daughter was safe and sound, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "What happened today?"
Li Yan briefly explained, "It's Xiupa that Miss Zheng has taken a fancy to, and she asked me to come over tomorrow to chat with him!"
Seeing her father's confused look, Li Yan continued to explain, "Maybe Miss Zheng just came to take up her post with County Magistrate Zheng and is unfamiliar with the place, so she wants to find someone to chat with her!"
When Li Erlang heard his daughter say this, he didn't know how to stop her, so he just told her to get along well with each other.
The group arrived at the embroidery shop. When Madam Zhou saw Li Yan, she felt a little relieved, but she was also frightened by the scene just now!
Seeing that Li Yan was safe and sound, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and hurriedly handed the things he had left in the shop back to them.
Li Yan thanked Madam Zhou, and they took their things and went home.
Everyone was tired after a day of hard work. The little cousin was still a little depressed because of what had just happened. He was carried on Li Erlang's back without saying a word.
A few people went out of the city gate and went straight to the dock, where they happened to meet the old fisherman.
The old fisherman moored the boat neatly on the shore and invited several people to get on board.
After everyone was seated, Uncle Zhou began to row the boat.
Li Yan asked with concern: "Has your eldest son recovered?"
Mr. Zhou nodded and said, "My health has improved, but the business of delivering fish to Pinxianglou is completely ruined!" After saying that, he sighed.
It turned out that someone took over Da Zhuang's business while he was recuperating from injury.
