At Yaya's house, everything belonging to the two sisters had already been loaded onto the cart, and the Old Lady's belongings had also been transferred to the Zhang family. The Liu Family's house could truly be said to be empty, even the chickens that Grandma had raised were taken to the Zhang family's farm. Once they left, it was likely they would never return.
To avoid letting the villagers notice that they were uprooting the entire household, they left under cover of night. They stayed one night at the Zhang family's house, then set off before dawn the next day, driving their little donkey away.
The donkey cart had even been specially reinforced and modified by Zhang Quan, who had prepared all necessities for their journey. He already treated Xiao Yu as if she were his own niece.
Upon departure, he boldly gave Xiao Yu a silver note for five thousand taels, which scared her quite a bit.
"Uncle, that's too much, I don't want it," she said.
