Lizhou Province, Zhulan had finished writing her reply, she wasn't in a hurry to find a fast horse to send it back, planning to prepare some food and necessities to send back together.
In the past month, the family had often been purchasing items. Lizhou City, being close to the border, had seen fewer foreign merchants since the recent battle, but there were still some—ahem—just not many who were willing to come since Lizhou City was too poor.
Zhulan had purchased a good amount of food such as dried fruits and dates in Chuanzhou Province, but because the quality of furs was not good this month, she had refrained from buying them.
Zhulan called Liu Ya to summon Steward Ding, handing over the letter to him, "Also pack up some dried fruits and dates for the Armed Escort Agency to deliver."
Steward Ding, taking the letter, asked, "Does the lady have any other instructions?"
