Li Xianyun returned to the pigment-selling shop with her entourage, where Li Rui, Qiu Qianyun, and Li Xianyi had already come out and were waiting for her at the street corner, their faces full of concern.
If it hadn't been for Youlan stopping him, Li Rui would have gone over to see what was happening long ago.
As Li Xianyun approached, Li Rui asked, "Xianxian, what happened?"
"It's nothing serious, just that your daughter encountered a deceitful merchant while running the shop before, and I had a few words with him."
Upon hearing this, Li Rui and his wife relaxed.
The group continued to wander around the West Market.
It was when the sun was setting and the weary birds were returning to the forests that they arrived at the second courtyard of Xuanyi Pavilion.
Li Xianyun invited Li Rui and the others to have some tea and rest their feet in the second courtyard.
