Wen Heng had been calculating that the Xia family would arrive in the Capital within these couple of days, though the exact timing remained uncertain, and he hadn't yet been able to visit Ling He. However, from the bits and pieces he gathered from the other princes—namely that Old General Wei had attended court and immediately requested to resign upon showing his face—he knew exactly what was going on.
They had arrived, and they wouldn't be leaving right away. Although he wasn't in a rush, he found himself yearning to see that little girl.
Wei Jianqing was taking the Xia family around the streets. Even though the Xia family were from the countryside, they weren't exactly ignorant bumpkins. Lei Jiuniang and Xia Jinhuang weren't just out to shop; they were observing the storefronts, thinking about how to bring their business to the Capital. Xia Jinxiu was tasting various snacks, looking to learn what she could, though she couldn't help but feel a bit conceited—she felt the snacks in the Capital didn't have as much variety as the ones she made, and in terms of taste, they were a far cry from hers.
