After settling the matters at home and the manor, Li Yu, Yu Niang, Xu Chun, and Li Qing left for Clearwater Town early. Zhou Jia, Ruyi, and the others sent Li Yu and her brother out of the city before reluctantly returning.
There were two horses pulling the carriage for this trip. Li Yu and Yu Niang sat in one, and Li Qing rode alone. The Xu brothers drove the carriage, and the light horses sped up a lot. They did not have to go to Qingzhou. The siblings arrived in Clearwater Town at the end of the afternoon on February 16. The town looked a little livelier than last year. The pedestrians on the road no longer looked sad, and there was smiles on their faces.
Li Qing got out of the car and found an inn called Tong Fu Inn to stay. After washing up, they went to the inn's lobby.
The innkeeper was a slightly plump middle-aged man. Seeing Li Yu and the others arrive, he asked with a smile, "Dear guests, what do you want to eat?"
