Both Lu Zhi Yan and Lu Hu An in a curious manner looked at her questioningly "Sister Ying, what are the sauce for?". Lu Ying Yue smiled and pat Lu Zhi Yan's head "Sister Ying plans to sell meat and chili sauce that goes well with rice and noodles" Lu Hu An stared at her and eventually nodded.
Lu Hu An woke up at dawn the next morning. He went to the river to catch some fish. After some time Liang Kun Lan arrived, Lu Hu An already caught a bucket of fish. When they were satisfied with what they caught, they proceeded to the Old Man Wu's house to sell the fish.
Lu Ying Yue was preparing the table, Lu Hu An arrived and brought four pieces of fish. "Hu An you're back, come sit down, I'll get the dishes" Lu Hu An nodded and drop the fish at the wooden barrel at the corner.
"You should have woken me up when you left at dawn, next time don't just leave. You almost gave me a heart attack, I thought someone took you." Lu Hu An rubs the back of his neck and apologizes.
After their meal, Lu Ying Yue went to the town to buy some vegetable seeds and some ingredients for the sauce. When she arrived at the store, there were a few people. "What kind of seed do you want Miss?" the owner approached her.
Lu Ying Yue went inside and pointed at the seeds "eggplant, sweet potato, potato, lettuce, bell pepper, garlic, onion, tomato and chili seeds". The owner smiled and gathered the seeds. "seventy-five copper coins", Lu Ying Yue handed the coins to the owner and left.
When she went to look for meat, she came across a group of people. She was about to ignore them and leave when she saw a familiar face inside the cage.
"What kind of slave do you want, Miss? Fifty coppers for young slaves and thirty-five copper coins for adults. You can look around" Lu Ying Yue took a deep breath when she recognized four people inside the cage. With a cold look "I want them" she pointed to the familiar faces inside the cage.
The owner smiled and freed the slaves. Lu Ying Yue handed over the money and left. Lu Ying Yue went to the tea house, they found a table in a secluded corner. When a server served them tea, Lu Ying Yue looked at them "What happened?"
The newly bought slaves looked down and avoided her look. She sighed and stared at them, "We left the manor when we found out that the Master removed you all from the Feng Household" the middle-aged man replied.
Lu Ying Yue frowned "Uncle Ling, how long did you all stay in that cage? You know that all of you could live a decent life"
"Miss Ying, we would rather die than serve someone else. We vow to remain loyal to you and your siblings when Madam Lu passed away" Aunt Jiao replied. Lu Ying Yue nodded "How about the others? Any news?"
