"How do I know where he is now? I haven't been home lately. " Yao Guihua replied with extreme impatience.
"You said he hasn't been home lately?" The Lady Li obviously did not believe him.
"Are you deaf?" Yao Guihua said fiercely.
Yao Guihua didn't wait for Lady Li to speak before she directly and heavily shut the door.
"Mom, let's go back first. We'll talk tomorrow." Mo Linyu thought that it was already dark by now, so he decided to come over tomorrow to see if Mo Zhiyuan had returned home yet.
"Alright, let's go." Lady Li sighed.
The next morning, since he had to go to the shop to help out, Mo Linyu drove the oxcart to the town first.
Just as he was driving the ox-cart out of the village, he saw Mo Zhiyuan walking on the road far away.
Mo Linyu stopped beside Mo Zhiyuan, got off the oxcart, and went to clear up what Mo Zhiyuan had said.
"Zhiyuan, wait a moment. I have something to tell you." Mo Linyu's tone of voice was still considered good.
"What's the matter?" Mo Zhiyuan stopped and asked.
"Tell me honestly, did you come to our house yesterday?" Mo Linyu asked seriously.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" I haven't been back for days. " Mo Zhiyuan obviously did not know what had happened.
"Are you for real?" Mo Linyu definitely did not believe it.
"Of course it's true. Go and ask if you don't believe me." Mo Zhiyuan didn't even know what he was saying.
"Then where have you been these past few days?" Mo Linyu continued to ask.
"I've been in town all this time." Mo Zhiyuan said truthfully.
Anyway, he went back today because he had no money on him, so he might as well go back to get some silver.
"Alright, then you can go back first." Mo Linyu didn't look like he was lying, could it be that it really wasn't him?
Even now, Mo Zhiyuan was still confused, he did not know what was going on.
He took the ox-cart to the town area, and first went to look at Mo Xiaoxia's Embroidery Shop, before going to Mo Xiaoyan's shop. As they had been delayed for a while on the road, it was getting late, and there were already some customers waiting for them there.
Once Mo Linyu entered the store, he immediately dragged Mo Dalin to the backyard, telling him about some of the things that happened. Although Mo Dalin was very angry after hearing about it, he had no idea what to do, nor did he have any evidence.
Right now, there were more and more people on the streets, and the business inside the shop was getting better, so Mo Linyu had yet to tell Mo Xiaoyan about this matter.
Since Mo Xiaoxia had activated her Embroidery Shop, Shangguan Chuyue went over to help her. Shangguan Chuyue was unable to help much, but embroidery was what she was most proficient in, so he went over to help Mo Xiaoxia.
Mo Xiaoyan was the only one in the kitchen that was important to her, and she was the only one who helped her.
In ancient times, there was no air-conditioning and no electric fan, so it was really hot in the kitchen in the summer and he was always sweating and wearing a lot of clothes.
Fortunately, he had been here for a few years and had gradually adapted to this lifestyle.
Ever since that day when Wang Xiuqin's family had matters to attend to and she only came to the shop at noon, she had been in a very low mood. Even now, she was still in a gloomy mood and her mind was wandering, hence she was not as focused as before.
Sometimes, when she was busy, Mo Xiaoyan would feel anxious so she didn't say anything about her due to the lack of face. She wanted to talk to her for sure after she was done with her work this afternoon.
When the afternoon was almost over, Mo Linyu called Mo Xiaoyan to a place with no one around, and told him about the matters of the family. He felt that it was necessary to let the entire family know.
At first, the first person Mo Xiaoyan suspected was Mo Zhiyuan, but she didn't have any evidence at all, so she couldn't directly look for him to tell him. Furthermore, Mo Linyu also asked Mo Zhiyuan, saying that he hadn't been home for the past few days, and had been in town the entire time. Furthermore, it didn't seem like he was lying, so the clues were too far away.
He could put this aside for the time being. He could just keep himself in the house as much as possible in the future. Even if he wasn't home, he would carry the money bag with him. He didn't believe that thief could steal anything else.
After finishing the cleaning, Mo Linyu and Mo Dalin would go across the small courtyard, and Mo Xiaoyan would also let Yang Danian go back first.
Only Wang Xiuqin was left in the shop, she wanted to talk to her.
"Xiuqin, come over and take a seat." Mo Xiaoyan was tired after a busy day, so she sat there.
After Wang Xiuqin walked over and sat down, she was silent for a moment, then asked: "Xiaoyan, is there something you need?"
"Xiuqin, you seem to be in a rather bad mood these past few days. Is there something troubling you?" Mo Xiaoyan asked in concern.
"Sigh, it's all a matter of family matters." Wang Xiuqin sighed, lowered her head and said.
"What's the matter at home? Do you need our help? " Mo Xiaoyan asked kindly.
Wang Xiuqin was silent for a good while, before she finally opened her mouth and said: "Even I feel embarrassed to say it out loud, I'm afraid that you guys will laugh."
"Tell me, why would I laugh at you even though I asked?" Mo Xiaoyan spoke in a rare serious tone.
"My dad doesn't go home often, and when he comes home he gets drunk. He always hit my mom, but now he's gone somewhere else and isn't coming home. My mom is also worried about my dad, and I wonder how he's doing out there." Wang Xiuqin finally said what she had kept in her heart for the past few days.
"Then where's your father?" Mo Xiaoyan thought that this was typical domestic violence, and this person did not care about his own family.
"He went to Water Facing Town." Wang Xiuqin replied.
Although Mo Xiaoyan had never been to Water Curtain Town, she had heard of it before, and it was not far from this town.
"Then are you going to look for your father?" Mo Xiaoyan asked.
"I'm not too sure about where exactly I'm staying in Linshui Town. My mom is so worried right now that she doesn't even have the mood to eat anymore." Speaking of this matter, Wang Xiuqin's heart became sad again.
"Don't worry, it's getting late. Go home first." Mo Xiaoyan had to go out to buy vegetables as well. As for this matter, she would help Wang Xiuqin if she had time.
"Okay, then I'll go back first." Wang Xiuqin stood up and wiped the corner of her eyes with her sleeve.
These two days, he didn't go out to buy food nor did he go out to eat. Now that Mo Xiaoyan wanted to go out and buy food, he could only come back to make food.
After closing the door of the shop, he walked towards the place that sold vegetables.
Walking onto the street, Mo Xiaoyan coincidentally bumped into Su Jinxuan. Mo Xiaoyan thought, could it be that he's really free everyday? He was still strolling in the streets.
"Hey, where are you going?" Mo Xiaoyan thought that since she had seen it, it was best to greet him.
"What do you mean, hello? Don't I have a name? " Su Jinxuan frowned and said.
"Can I just call you by your name?" Mo Xiaoyan rolled her eyes and asked.
