Then, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue went to the backyard and told Xue Sifu — who was drawing water from the well — that Shao Zhongxi had left.
They said that someone had come to tell them.
Naturally, he didn't ask anything about the future.
When Xue Sifu heard that Shao Zhongxi had left and that he would no longer be sitting around every day, he was delighted. He said, "Then you should go home. Don't stay in the shop. Last time, when Yifu helped to bring firewood, he said Mother and the others missed you."
"Okay." Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both responded.
Xue Sifu would not let the two children drive the carriage back by themselves or walk back. Instead, he helped hire a carriage and let the two children take the hired carriage back.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went home just like that.
When they got home, it was not even noon yet.
