"You're not that kind of person, and besides, can you really appreciate twenty taels?" Bai Ruozhu smiled and asked. Some people can instantly be seen as poor characters at first glance, but some can be recognized as trustworthy just as quickly.
Bai Ruozhu regarded Yu Hongxiu as part of the latter category.
The two discussed further details until Mr. Xie emerged from Bai Zepei's room. Upon hearing this, Yu Hongxiu quickly got up and said, "It seems they are about to leave. I'll visit you again in a couple of days. If you have time, please come to see me in town."
Mr. Xie and his wife were temporarily living in the town, not far from the County Government Office.
"Sure, it's a deal then." Bai Ruozhu smiled and escorted her to the door. Before leaving, Yu Hongxiu affectionately stroked little Dengdeng's hand. Her eyes reflected her love for children.
