Mu Yuanxiu nodded earnestly and said, "Don't worry, Third Brother."
Li Xing'an instructed Xiao Chengzi and Liu Yanbai a few things and went to the County Magistrate Mansion with Mu Yuanxiu to find Li Yuzhu.
Li Yuzhu calculated the time; she had been in the county for over a month, and it was already December.
It was natural for her parents to worry about her.
Li Yuzhu went to see the County Magistrate and his wife and talked about her parents sending a message.
The County Magistrate said, "I originally intended to keep you for a few more days and send you back in mid-month. But since Mr. Li and Mrs. Li are worried about you, I won't insist on keeping you."
He asked Li Yuzhu when she planned to return.
Li Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's already past noon now. I'll return tomorrow morning."
The County Magistrate said, "That's perfect. I'll prepare some gifts for you to take back."
