But he has been gone for more than ten years. His wife has no job and just gave birth to a child. How can she live with the child?
Every time he thinks of this, his heart hurts, and he just wants to go back to his wife immediately.
Several crew members helped Bai Zhi and Xiao Qing to get off the boat, and Xiao Qing immediately went to find a carriage.
Master Wu, who was in command of the work, saw it and hurried over: “You are new to Nangang City, and you are not familiar with the place. Why don’t you go back to the Sea Trade Bureau with me today, and make plans tomorrow.”
Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Thank you very much for your kindness. We have been harassing you for so long, and we can’t thank you enough. It’s better to leave today. If we meet again in the future, I will thank you for your help.”
Master Wu wanted to keep her, but seeing that she had no intention to stay, he finally swallowed his words when he was full of words.
How could such a delicate girl match up with a half-old widower like him? He shouldn’t have such delusions!
“I’ll help you find the carriage.” He didn’t say anymore and swallowed all the reluctance. After all, he was old unlike those ignorant brats, who haven’t experienced this kind of thing.
If it was not yours, don’t force it.
Bai Zhi was not an ordinary girl, he can’t hold her. Since he can’t hold it, it’s better to let a good person cherish her.
The carriage gradually disappeared in front of Master Wu, and the young man who followed him stepped forward and said, “Master, you’ll let her go like this?”
Master Wu sighed: “She has legs, so why can’t she go?”
The young man said, “Master brought her back from a foreign country far away, but she is so heartless? A person like her shouldn’t have a good reputation. What is she proud of?”
Master Wu looked at the young man with his eyes crossed, with an angry expression on his face, and said solemnly: “What nonsense? Do your job. If you couldn’t speak good words, don’t open your mouth and talk nonsense here.”
When the young man saw his master was so angry, he didn’t dare to say anything more, turned around, and walked away.
Master Wu turned back and looked in the direction of Bai Zhili, and the carriage had long since disappeared.

The three found an inn in Harbour City to stay in first. After eating and drinking, Bai Zhi and Xiao Qing went to the Jewelry Shop with two silver coins.
If this kind of silver coin is taken to the bank, it can only be deposited in the bank according to its weight. She felt it was a pity. The silver coin has a beautiful shape and can be sold as a pendant. Maybe the jewelry shop will like it after seeing it.
As she expected, the owner of the silver building was very interested in these silver coins and bought them for two thousand taels. Except for the dozens she kept, the rest were sold to the owner of the silver building.
After going out of the shop, Xiao Qing tugged on Bai Zhi’s sleeve and said, “Now that we are back, we also have money, when will we find the young master?”
Bai Zhi put the banknote close to her body, turned to look at Xiao Qing, and looked puzzled: “Why are you still looking for him? Without him, you are free, you can do whatever you want, and go wherever you want. When he was in danger, he left you ruthlessly, so why look for him?”
Xiao Qing shook her head with a stubborn look on her face: “No, young master is not that kind of person. He won’t leave anyone behind. There must have been a reason that day. I believe the young master.”
“Even if there is a reason for the incident, even if your young master didn’t abandon you, so what? You are just one of many subordinates to him, and he may not even remember you. With such a chance to get rid of slavery, why are you going back to find him?” She really couldn’t understand Xiao Qing’s thoughts.
