Capítulo 153: You've Spent Much Money Today

As they talked, the carriage arrived at a small town. They could get out and stretch their legs.

Old Master Wang had the coachman stop in front of a restaurant, and everyone got out of the carriage.

After stretching and moving around, they went inside to have a meal.

"Yes, there was a major flood. We lost our homes, and our loved ones are all missing."

Old Mistress Wang pitied them.
