Chen Wanqing and Xu Suying lingered at the Qian family's home for an hour before the mother-daughter pair said their goodbyes.
The sun was still hanging in the sky.
It was a bright, sunny day, and the sun was still surprisingly warm.
"Why don't you go open the shop for a little while, and I'll go find Mrs. Ying?"
"Okay. Then let's split up, Mom."
"What do you mean, 'split up'? I'll take you to the shop first, and then I'll go find Mrs. Ying."
Chen Wanqing was busy all day, only closing the shop when Zhao Jing came to find her. The two of them then went to pick up Xu Suying together.
On the way, Chen Wanqing noticed the basket on Zhao Jing's back was stuffed full and asked, "Why do you have so much?"
"Mr. Wang helped me find a few volumes of past anthologies, and I bought some new ink sticks and paper. I'll make a copy of the anthologies for De'an later."
Hearing this, Chen Wanqing quickly said, "Then let me pay for the paper. How much was it in total? I'll give it to you."
