Lu Erbai laughed. “It’s rare for Scholar Tang to make a trip here. Come, come, come, sit down. I’ll pour you some tea.”

He came out from behind the counter. Although he still walked unnaturally, he did not need a cane.

However, before he could do anything, the old lady who came out from the backyard had already come over with a cup. She also welcomed the two of them with a smile.” I’ll do it, I’ll do it. You go to the counter and guard it.”

She happened to bring the finished doll to the shop today and was about to go back when she heard a familiar voice coming from outside.

Mrs. Tang took the water and followed Tang Wenqian’s instructions, “Well, the provincial examination is over. We just came back from the prefecture. These days, Wenqian has been studying hard. It was not easy for him to finish his exams, so he wanted to bring him around. Seeing that the weather was getting cold, I bought a piece of cloth to make clothes for him. I heard that your shop is on Ningshui Street, and you sell ready-made clothes, so I came over to take a look. I wonder if there’s anything suitable for our Wenqian .”

Lu Erbai slapped his forehead. “Scholar Tang went to the prefecture to take the exam. Look at me, I’ve forgotten about this. How was the exam? Did you get it?”

The main reason was that they had been very busy at home previously. In addition, Shu Yu was about to go on a long journey, so they did not have the mood to pay attention to anything else.

“I don’t know yet. The exams have just ended. The results will be released in September. This time, he was just going to give it a try. It was his first time taking the exam, and the county school’s overseer told him not to be too stressed. Just treat it as him going to broaden his horizons.”

Although Mrs. Tang said so, she was still very proud. Even if the results hadn’t been released yet, Scholar Tang should have done well.

If there was such a young scholar in the village, it would be a joyous occasion for the villagers.

Lu Erbai was happy, and so was the old lady beside him. She went behind the counter to get some snacks for them to eat.

He replied, “Anyway, congratulations to you guys. However, our shop only sells women’s ready-made clothes, so we don’t have any clothes suitable for Scholar Tang.”

Mrs. Tang sighed. “Then I’ll go to the clothes shop and get some clothes. I’ll make it myself. By the way, do you know any ready-to-wear clothes shop that sells good and cheap clothes?”

The old lady knew, but the clothes in their shop were of the highest quality. Moreover, they had a large amount of stock, so they took the goods directly. They went to the largest cloth shop on Ningshui Street.

Shu Yu was in charge of the cloth negotiations in the early stages. Later on, when Madam Ruan went to get the goods, she went directly to the steward according to the contract.

But this was not suitable for Mrs. Tang. The old lady knew the situation of the Tang family. No matter how good the material used to make Tang Wenqian’s clothes was, it couldn’t be compared to the fabric in the shop.

Therefore, the old lady could not give her any advice. Especially with Mrs. Tang’s personality, if she told the truth, she would think that the Lu family looked down on her just because they were rich.

The old lady and Lu Erbai exchanged a glance and could only say, “I don’t know about this. Yu was the one who went to negotiate the purchase of the cloth.”

Mrs. Tang immediately asked, “What about your second daughter? Isn’t she here?”

The old lady smiled. “She’s gone on a long trip. I’m afraid she won’t be back anytime soon.”

Mrs. Tang and Tang Wenqian’s expressions changed.

Tang Wenqian was fine, but Mrs. Tang almost couldn’t maintain her smile.

Going far away? Or could she not return in a short period? Could she have been exiled?
