"Alright then, let's wait for her to recover first." Hearing Liu Yuemei's words, Mo Linyu simply agreed.

"Big brother, sister-in-law, is it really good to keep her here like this? Even I don't know if Mom and Dad will agree, but isn't it too early to agree to it now? " Mo Xiaoxia did not want to let the girl follow him.

"I don't know either. I'll ask my parents first when we get back." Mo Linyu thought that Mo Dalin would agree, but he didn't know if Lady Li would agree.

"Alright then." Since Mo Linyu had already said that, there was nothing Mo Xiaoxia could say.

The girl was heavily injured, and on the way back to the inn, Liu Yuemei and Mo Xiaoxia helped her up.

When they arrived at the tavern, Mo Dalin, Lady Li and Wang Dacheng were there waiting for them to return so that they could eat together.

"Father, mother, we are back." Mo Xiaoxia was extremely tired from supporting the woman all the way back. When she finally returned to the inn with great difficulty, she made sure to sit down and take a good rest.

"Come and sit down. We're waiting for you to come back so we can have a meal together." Mo Dalin was already hungry and was only waiting for them to return so that he could eat. The two elders had already eaten dinner and went to their room to rest.

"Who is that lady?" Mo Dalin saw Liu Yuemei and Mo Xiaoxia supporting the girl.

"Father, mother, I wanted to discuss this with you." Mo Linyu walked over and sat down. He wanted to first ask Lady Li and Mo Dalin for their opinion and see if they agreed.

"What is it?" Mo Dalin asked.

"That girl was sold by her parents, so we spent 10 taels of silver to redeem her. But now that she's injured and has nowhere to go, I wanted to let her go with us and wait for her injuries to heal before making any other plans." Mo Linyu explained.

"With us? "But we're leaving for the capital tomorrow. Why would she be with us?" Lady Li didn't quite agree with this matter.

"Yeah, there seems to be nothing we can do about it." Mo Dalin also did not agree.

"She has nowhere to go, so she should follow us first and wait for her injuries to heal before making any other plans." Mo Linyu felt that he should talk it out with Lady Li and Mo Dalin.

"I beg of you, I really have no other choice. My home is very far away from here, and I'm not familiar with this place either. Furthermore, if I go back, my parents will definitely sell me. I really have no other choice." Seeing that Mo Dalin and Lady Li did not agree, she kneeled down and begged.

"This... We are also in a difficult situation. We are going to the capital, and I am afraid we cannot bring you along with us. " Lady Li did not want to follow a stranger around. She did not understand that she would not even be able to sleep soundly at night.

"I have nowhere to go now, so I can be your servant girl. I can cook and clean the house, but I only want to eat." The woman said in a choked voice.

"Ai, how about this, since you're injured, then you should come with us for now. When you recover from your injuries, we won't stop you wherever you want to go." Mo Dalin also felt that it was pitiful that the girl looked to be about the same age as Mo Xiaoxia, just like his own daughter.

"Alright then, let's wait for her to recover first." Lady Li was soft-hearted too.

"Thank you. Thank you so much for saving me." The woman said gratefully.

"By the way, what's your name, girl? We don't know what to call you. " Lady Li asked.

"Aunt, you can just call me Xing Er." Xing Er replied.

"Alright, Xing Er, you sit over here too. Let's eat together before heading to your room to rest." Lady Li greeted with a smile.

"Aunty, I won't come over to eat. I'll just eat two steamed buns." Xing Er's family's living conditions were very poor, he felt that eating steamed buns was the greatest happiness, and never dared to dream of eating those delicious dishes.

"How can we only eat steamed buns? Come and sit over here and have a meal with us. You're welcome." Lady Li felt that since she left Xing Er behind, she had to treat her equally with her family.

"Miss Xing Er, sit over there and have a bite to eat. If you are injured, you will need to eat more to nourish your body. On our way to Beijing, you will have to eat quite a lot of steamed buns to satisfy your hunger." Liu Yuemei said with concern.

"Mm, alright then." Xing Er actually wanted to sit and eat, but she felt that it would be better to be a little more reserved at the start.

In her entire life, Xing Er had never eaten such a good meal, and would never have such a good meal during New Year at home. She never thought that this family would look like they were quite rich, and looked like they didn't wear much, but they looked pretty generous.

Those dishes were all very tasty, but Xing Er ate very slowly and rarely. At the very least, he had to act and leave a good impression on them.

After dinner, Xing Er went to her room to rest. Originally, Lady Li wanted to share a room with Mo Xiaoxia, but Mo Xiaoxia tactfully rejected her suggestion. Since he didn't want to share a room with her, she had no choice but to get another room for Xing Er to stay in.

When she slept, Lady Li went to Mo Xiaoxia's room and asked: "Xiaoxia, what do you think of that lady today?"

"I'm not familiar with her, so I'm not too sure about her character either. We'll probably know when the time comes." Mo Xiaoxia didn't like that Xing Er anyway.

"In the afternoon, I secretly observed that girl. I felt that she was okay and easy to get along with. I wonder what she would look like after a long time." The impression that Xing Er left on Lady Li this afternoon was not bad.

"I feel like there's a stranger in our family that we don't understand. I keep having a bad feeling about it." Mo Xiaoxia didn't need to be so tactful in front of the Lady Li;

"I also thought that way in my heart. The more I look at her, the more pitiful I feel, so I'll wait for her to recover first. I'll help her now." Lady Li thought to herself that once Xing Er's injuries were fully healed, he would let her go.

"Mm, that's fine too." Mo Xiaoxia replied expressionlessly.

In the capital, Mo Xiaoyan stayed at home the whole time. Fortunately, the house was very big and she could walk around, it was just that she was a little scared when it was late at night, and every time she thought about it, there were still some hidden guards, causing Mo Xiaoyan to suddenly be a lot bolder.

Mo Xiaoyan was still thinking about how she would return to the town to find the Lady Li and Mo Dalin after she found out about the truth, but she didn't expect that the entire family was already on their way to the capital.
