Yang Ruxin's letter revealed that Yong Cang, a man from Wa Country responsible for transporting their Divine Sauce, posed a threat. The group decided to stay in the small building for better security and debated whether to continue supporting the pregnant woman next door, suspecting she was bait. They also considered returning to Beijing due to recent events, including the Han King's aunt's passing, but ultimately decided against it based on Yang Ruxin's advice, opting instead to wait for her return.

The days continued to glide forward, and the weather grew even hotter.

This day, starting from midnight, there were flashes of lightning and claps of thunder, then a torrential downpour began, lasting until the next morning, when it still hadn’t stopped, and the sky was as dark as night.

The school was directly closed, and everyone stayed indoors, gathering in the main hall to watch the rain with the Three Beans.

The Three Beans were very interested in the heavy rain outside, but unfortunately, they couldn’t go out. They could only push their walkers to the doorway, pointing outside and babbling away.

But no one could understand what they were saying, so they just hummed and laughed along, creating a lively atmosphere.

By noon, the rain finally stopped, and the sky began to brighten up.

The children ran outside joyfully. At this time, the water in the Xiaocang River must have risen, bringing out many fish and shrimp. Even if they couldn’t catch fish or shrimp, they would find many loaches in the fields, which was the children’s favorite activity.

The Three Beans watched as their little aunts and uncles ran out, feeling extremely anxious but unable to express themselves. All they could do was shout at others in a language no one could understand, their little faces flushed from the effort, causing the adults to laugh non-stop.

At this moment, a carriage appeared on the main road outside and quickly stopped in front of the Yang Family’s small building. The door opened, and a man jumped out.

The gatekeepers, Ye Zhou and Wang Hai, exchanged glances. One went to greet the visitor, while the other quickly went into the courtyard to report the arrival.

"Master Yong Cang, what brings you here?" Ye Zhou smiled warmly, "The heavy rain has just stopped; I hope you didn’t get caught in it?"

Yong Cang had stayed here for a long time initially, so almost everyone in the Yang Family was familiar with him.

"I started out once the rain stopped," Yong Cang replied with a gentle smile, "Is Xinxin here?"

"Unfortunately, our madam has gone to Beijing," Ye Zhou smiled. "Do you want to come in for a cup of tea or...?"

"Since I’m here, I must visit a few of the elders and also check on the Three Beans."

Ye Zhou nodded, "Please come inside."

At this time, Wang Hai came running out to arrange for Yong Cang’s carriage and coachman.

In the living room, Zhang Changyang came out to receive Yong Cang. Since they were men, it wasn’t an issue for Dong Wenxiu and Feng Zilan not to come out.

"Senior." In front of Changyangzi, Yong Cang dared not be disrespectful and greeted him very respectfully.

"Xinxin is not here, so it’s inconvenient to entertain guests," Zhang Changyang directly issued an order to leave. "If it’s business-related, you can directly go to Manager Qian."

"I just came to see the children."

"The children are asleep."

Yong Cang furrowed his brow for a moment. "In that case, I shall take my leave." He then rose and began to head out.

In the courtyard, two maids were speaking.

"Mrs. Liu from the neighboring courtyard said she wants to eat bird’s nest soup."

"I’ll inform the kitchen right now. Madam had instructed us before she left not to be negligent."

"Alright, then I’ll trouble you. I need to bring her a silk quilt first, she said the cotton quilt is too hot and uncomfortable."

"Go quickly, I’ll prepare the bird’s nest."

Yong Cang glanced at the two of them and walked straight out.

However, just as he reached the gate, he saw Zhou Xiao and Xiaofeng returning, each carrying a wooden bucket filled with fish and shrimp.

"Brother Yong Cang?" Zhou Xiao called out in surprise, "Weren’t you supposed to have returned to Wa Country?"

"Dabao, Xiaofeng." Yong Cang greeted with a smile, "I just came back and dropped by, but didn’t expect Xinxin to be away."
