After they finished their conversation, the group continued on their way. Lu Jiao, accompanied by Lady Xu and Ruan Zhu, sat in the front carriage, while Feng Zhi and Old Man Xiao sat in another carriage behind. Zhao Lingfeng rode in the Zhao family's carriage. The group headed straight for the outskirts of Qinghe County.
However, as they reached a bustling street, they unexpectedly encountered someone, causing both horses to be startled.
Lu Jiao lifted the curtain to look outside and saw that there was a woman on the opposite side also lifting the curtain to look out.
It turned out to be Zhang Biyan, the wife of Li Wenfu - one of the daughters of the Zhang family, one of the four prominent families in Qinghe County.
Seeing Zhang Biyan, Lu Jiao couldn't help but recall what Xie Yunjin had previously told her.
The merchants in Qinghe County might be eyeing them since they want to reestablish their network.
