Chapter 270 - 269 Children
Upon hearing Ye Xinyan’s ready-made excuses, Jinrong was also helpless. Ye Zi and Nanny Jin went to Miyi County following a merchant convoy; with the constant coming and going of so many people on the road, it seemed only reasonable that they couldn’t remember everyone clearly.
Ye Xinyan asked, "Does Sixth Master want to continue looking around here, or shall we go back now?"
Jinrong replied, "Let’s look at the other dairy product workshops a bit more. This is the first time I’ve come here since we started the business. If cheese and butter products become high-quality ingredients in the future, it will be useful for the proprietor to know more. If someone asks, I’ll be able to explain a thing or two."
Looking at the sky, Jiang Yifan noticed that Si Hour had only just passed, he said, "Sixth Master is inspecting the workshops, and I had promised Brother Jia that I would help him hunt rabbits earlier. It’s still early, I’ll go find Brother Jia, and if we can catch a few more, we can roast rabbit for lunch."
She was going to eat at her house again? Ye Xinyan’s eyes widened as she looked at Jiang Yifan and Jinrong. It would be understandable if they were short on time, but at this moment, there was plenty of it after the inspection to return to the city and their own home in time.
Jiang Yifan simply nodded at Ye Xinyan, then cupped his hands towards Jinrong and turned to leave with Shi Yu. He needed to calm his mind.
Away from the dairy product workshop area, Jiang Yifan asked a young laborer from the construction industry about the whereabouts of Qi Jia and the other children, and then followed his directions to find them.
In a corner outside the construction site, a dozen children of various sizes were running around frantically, catching and shouting at each other while laughing and screaming. That girl named Zi Ning was still standing at a distance, watching without stepping forward to help Qi Jiajia, who was constantly getting caught and then rescued by others.
