Chapter 228 The more I think about it, the more frightened I get!

Shen Qianchuan said with some worry, "Xiao Tang, it's so late, everyone in the restaurant must be resting. I don't know if anyone is on night duty. If we can't get the carriage back, what will we do with the raw pig's trotters in the carriage?"

Xiao Jiu, standing nearby, said with a serious expression, "If we can't retrieve the carriage and take the raw pig's trotters home, and if we can't braise them by tomorrow morning, we won't be able to supply the restaurant. If we can't deliver on time, it will delay the restaurant's business and also affect our reputation."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qianchuan thought, "This is outrageous!"

If we can't get the carriage out and retrieve the raw pig's trotters, we won't be able to supply the three restaurants tomorrow morning. If we anger the restaurant owners, we'll be in big trouble.

So he immediately went forward and pounded on the restaurant door, wishing he could smash it down and pull the carriage out.

In fact, the restaurant manager lives in the restaurant so that he can handle any unexpected situations.

He had just fallen asleep when he vaguely heard the knocking on the restaurant door. He thought he was dreaming or hallucinating. But after a while, the knocking became louder, and he was finally awake. He put on his clothes, went downstairs, and opened the restaurant door.

After recognizing Lin Xiaotang, Xiao Jiu, and Shen Qianchuan, he asked in surprise, "What happened to you today? Why did you leave the carriage here and run away?"

If you encounter trouble in this county town of Dushui, you can ask the waiters at the restaurant for help, but you ran away without saying a word, making it impossible for anyone to catch you. Sigh, young people..."

Xiao Jiu was so embarrassed that she kept scratching her head.

He was naturally a quiet person, and in his eagerness to find Lin Xiaotang, he didn't even think to ask the restaurant staff for help in the search.

"At the time, I was only focused on finding someone and didn't think much about it. If we encounter any more problems in the future, we will definitely ask you for help," Xiao Jiu replied with her head down.

The steward, carrying a lantern, led everyone to the backyard, opened the back gate, and let a few of them lead the carriage away.

"Alright, I won't see you off. Take this lantern with you on your way back, and be careful on the road."

Lin Xiaotang immediately said sweetly, "Thank you, Steward. We just needed a lantern, and you've come to our aid. This is really kind of you. We've disturbed your rest today."

The manager hurriedly said, "Hey, you can't say that. There's no such thing as disturbing you. We've been working together for so long, and you and the shopkeeper are so familiar with each other. The shopkeeper even wants to open a braised pig's trotter shop with you. This shows how important you are to the shopkeeper."

This should not be underestimated!

Shen Qianchuan was visiting Dushui County for the first time and was not familiar with the steward, so he listened quietly.

After bidding farewell to the steward, Lin Xiaotang, along with her fourth uncle and Xiao Jiu, immediately set off in a carriage towards Qinghe Town.

Fearing that the journey would take too long and there wouldn't be enough time to braise the pig's trotters, thus delaying the delivery the next day, Xiao Jiu urged the horse onward, taking Xiao Tang and Fourth Uncle with him, and the carriage sped off at breakneck speed.

They hadn't gone far out of Dushui County when they spotted a horse-drawn carriage in the distance, carrying lanterns and running quickly toward them.

The closer they got, the clearer they could see—it was her father!

Lin Xiaotang felt a mix of emotions and immediately shouted at the top of her lungs.

"Father, Father, we're here."

Lin Qingchuan was extremely anxious the whole way, fearing that her daughter and the others might have encountered something terrible in the county, so she gripped the reins and drove the carriage very fast.

Many bad thoughts even flashed through his mind, and he imagined all the possible scenarios.

But the more I think about it, the more scared I get!
