"Not yet. She's very careful. It won't be that easy to find her." Su Jinxuan was also troubled by this matter.

"Sigh, let's investigate slowly then. Don't be too anxious so as to not arouse her suspicions." Mo Xiaoyan sighed and said.

"Of course I know that. Alright, it's cold outside, let's go in and rest. I need to go back as well." Su Jinxuan walked over and gently hugged Mo Xiaoyan, and only after a while did he let her go and walk out with extreme reluctance.

When Su Jinxuan returned, he did not immediately return to the house. Originally, he was very tired, but the moment he came out and was blown by the cold wind, he immediately felt much more energetic, and not sleepy at all.

The yard outside was already covered with a thick layer of snow. Since she couldn't sleep now, Mo Xiaoyan ran into the courtyard and started to make snowmen.

Although it was already night time, it was not dark outside so he could still see clearly. After piling up for a while, a snowman that was not too big appeared, causing Mo Xiaoyan's hands to become completely red.

And all of these were clearly seen by Chu Moran, as he thought that Mo Xiaoyan was rather childish, to be able to play in the courtyard without sleeping at night.

Far away from the capital, in the Mo Dalin family, no one slept during the entire night that was frozen in the carriage. In the morning, they wanted to drink a mouthful of water, but they found that even the water had frozen over.

"What should we do? The water is frozen, and the snow outside has not stopped. " Mo Dalin was a little anxious, he could not possibly be trapped to death here. Furthermore, there was not much rations left on the horse carriage, if he did not hurry, he might really starve to death.

"Father, I don't think the snow outside is too heavy. Let's start our journey now. It's better to walk slower than waiting here." Mo Linyu said from outside.

"That's right, I saw that Dongxue's nose was running cold. We have to hurry and find an inn to warm him up." Lady Li saw Mo Dongxue's face turn red from the cold and felt her heart ache.

However, Mo Dongxue was indeed very obedient, and did not cry in such a cold weather. This made Liu Yuemei very pleased.

As for Xing Er, who was sitting to the side, the clothes she was wearing were also relatively thin. Liu Yuemei used the thicker clothes to cover herself up, as she was afraid of freezing Mo Dongxue, so he didn't have any extra clothes for Xing Er to wear.

Lady Li originally wanted to find a piece of clothes for Xing Er to wear, but seeing how old Lady Li's clothes were, Xing Er refused and said that she wasn't cold.

Xing Er had hoped that Mo Xiaoxia had lent her some clothes to wear, but in her heart, Mo Xiaoxia did not think that way.

After travelling for half a day, they finally arrived at a town. As soon as they arrived, the few people in the town began to inquire about where the tavern was.

It had been one or two days since they last had a hot meal, and the first thing they did when they arrived at the inn was to order a large table of food. The people were hungry and ate quickly.

Mo Linyu noticed that Xing Er almost did not eat much, there were very little food on the table, it seemed like she did not have enough to eat.

"Xing Er, since you ate so little just now, you definitely haven't had your fill. Let me order more dishes for you, otherwise, how can you be hungry?" Mo Linyu now treated Xing Er as his own sister, so he was also rather concerned about her.

"No need, Brother Mo, I'm full." Xing Er lowered her head and whispered.

Yeah, I didn't even notice Xing Er just now, it seems like Xing Er didn't even take any action chopsticks. She hasn't eaten for a day or two already, and she just ate that little bit of rations on the carriage. Lady Li was also more concerned about Xing Er.

"Xing Er, are you embarrassed? "Since you're already with us now, don't feel embarrassed. Don't be so polite when eating, or else what happens if you get hungry?" Liu Yuemei said with concern.

"Shopkeeper, there's still a bowl of soup for the first dish, right?" Mo Linyu shouted.

"Alright, please wait for a moment. I will bring them over shortly." The shopkeeper answered.

"Brother Mo, Sister Yuemei and Aunt, thank you." Xing Er said gratefully.

"What are you thanking me for? In the future, you don't need to be so polite when eating. You can pick whatever you want to eat. Don't be too restrained when you're with us, just treat it as family." The Lady Li said with good intentions.

Hearing Lady Li's words, Xing Er was moved in her heart. She never thought that their whole family would treat him so well, and that she would be considered lucky.

With a plate of food, a big bowl of soup and a bowl of rice, Xing Er ate all of them. She was really hungry, so she couldn't care less about that, she just had to fill her stomach first.

Xing Er was very surprised after reading Xing Er's appetite. She had not eaten much from any meal she had during this period of time, so she thought that her appetite was small. Today was truly an eye-opener, this appetite was really big, and it was likely that not even the most poor of families could afford to support her.

After eating their fill, they decided to go out and buy some rations to dry up the cold weather. They would arrive at the capital soon, which would be much better at the end. They wouldn't need to spend the night outside; there were quite a few inns.

In the blink of an eye, they had already reached the capital. When they arrived at the Lady Li, they were affected by the scene and recalled the scene when they first arrived at the capital together with Mo Xiaoyan. Looking at the scene now, Mo Xiaoyan was no longer with the rest.

"Mother, is this the capital city?" "It looks so prosperous." Liu Yuemei said excitedly as she sat in the horse carriage and lifted the carriage's curtain to look at the street outside.

"That's right, we will have plenty of opportunities to visit the capital in the future. There's no rush right now, let's hurry to the mansion in such a cold weather." Lady Li did not want to keep her precious granddaughter frozen outside.

"Aunt, do you have a house in the capital?" After Xing Er heard what the Lady Li said, she was very surprised. He never expected them to be so rich, to actually have a mansion in the capital.

"No, we rented it." The Lady Li replied.

"Oh." After hearing what Lady Li said, Xing Er did not feel surprised anymore.

Mo Xiaoxia who was making such a big fuss about nothing hated it, why did she feel that this Xing Er was very hypocritical, to the point that she did not like her at all. She even felt that this Xing Er was even more annoying than that unreasonable and very malicious Shangguan Yuyan.

Although Shangguan Yuyan is unreasonable and always beat people up, but that was on the surface, allowing others to see what kind of person you were with a glance, while this Xing Er is different.

Mo Xiaoxia kept feeling that she was very shrewd, that she seemed to be more of a hypocrite, and that she didn't want her to stay here. However, since her family had agreed to it, she didn't think that she would be able to say it out loud.
