The family had made all the necessary preparations for Qi's departure. Shao Yunduan took some time to read the letter from the Xie Family, while Qiao Xuan handed him 10,000 liang, instructing him to keep it safe and deposit it in the local bank as soon as possible.
Qi expressed her gratitude and eagerly anticipated what the future held.
However, as the time for her departure approached, she couldn't help but feel reluctant to leave home.
Ms. Fang, on the other hand, became even more distressed when Qi was away. She grew absent-minded and sighed frequently. Yet, she concealed her emotions well in front of Qi, showing no signs of her inner turmoil.
It wasn't until the day of their departure that Ms. Fang finally couldn't hold back her tears, embracing Qi tightly. In turn, Qi burst into tears as well.
Shao Yunduan, Shao Sanlang, and Qiao Xuan stepped forward, attempting to console Ms. Fang. Yang Xiaoni and Qiao Xuan provided support as well.
