Xia Zixuan said in a gentle voice: "Uncle Chen, it's lunch time now. The restaurant should be very busy. You go and do your work first! I'll go and thank Uncle Chen when I have space."

Shopkeeper Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back first."

After saying this, he bowed and said goodbye to Mu Chenyi. He originally wanted to say that he had something to ask for and asked someone to call him, but then he thought that his master was here, so how could he be of any use? He should just go back and manage the restaurant!

Not long after Manager Chen left, Ying Yi and Ying Er came back, "Master, Miss Xia, your subordinates have investigated everything."

Xia Zixuan asked quickly: "What have you found out?"

Ying Yi said, "Miss Xia, we have found that the Chang family is involved in the trafficking of young girls."

After hearing this, Mu Chenyi sat up straight and asked, "Is the evidence conclusive?"

Ying Er took out the evidence he had found and said, "This was found in Master Chang's study. It contains a list of names of participants and the number of girls who were trafficked."

After reading the list, Xia Zixuan angrily slammed her hand on the table and cursed: "These beasts have harmed so many people. They deserve to die ten thousand times."

Mu Chenyi took Xia Zixuan's hand distressedly and said, "Don't be angry, leave these to me, I promise not to let them continue to get away with it."

Xia Zixuan nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Ayi."

Mu Chenyi rubbed her head and said, "Silly, why are you being so polite to me?"

Xia Zixuan pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, I understand."

Seeing that she was smiling again, Mu Chenyi ordered, "Yingyi, send the evidence and the people to the county government office and explain the whole story clearly."

Ying Yi heard this and said respectfully: "Yes, Master, I will go now."

After everything was resolved, Xia Zixuan comforted Yinglu and asked them to close the shop for a day and reopen it tomorrow. However, the people waiting outside to buy cotton started cursing Chang Yuwen and others when they heard the news.

But their scolding wouldn't change anything. Xia Zixuan made arrangements for Yinglu and the others to have a good rest for a day, and then she went back with Mu Chenyi.

Time quickly came to the next afternoon, and everyone who worked in the workshop left work a quarter of an hour early.

Let Le Han gather everyone in the square. Xia Zixuan and her men are already waiting there.

When everyone saw this, they remembered that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was Xia Zixuan who asked everyone to gather in the square and distributed employee benefits. Some people thought, could it be that this time too...

Someone asked Mrs. Wu, "Sister-in-law Changxing, do you know what the boss is doing?"

Wu shook her head and said, "I don't know either! Let's go over and take a look!"

"Do you think it will be the same as last Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"Yes, I thought so too. Are they giving us benefits again?"

"But, it's not a festival, how can the boss give us benefits?"

"Hey, you forgot, Manager Le Han said that we don't have to go to work tomorrow, and our wages were paid yesterday."

"You're right."

"Okay, stop guessing, let's go over and take a look!"

Little Wang urged, "Come on, go on, let's see if Miss Xuan needs help."

Xia Zixuan saw that almost everyone had arrived, so she said, "Ladies and aunts, our workshop will be closed from tomorrow onwards. We will notify you when we resume work next year."

"I asked everyone to come here today because it's almost the New Year, so I wanted to give everyone some benefits. Although the gifts are not much, they are also my little token of my appreciation."

As soon as Xia Zixuan finished speaking, someone said, "Thank you, boss. We will definitely work hard next year."

"Yes, the boss is so good to us, we should work harder."

Xia Zixuan smiled and raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said, "Okay, everyone line up now and come over here to receive it."

"Hey, thank you, boss. We got it."

Xia Zixuan asked Le Ping and Le Shan to distribute them to everyone, and asked Le Han and Jing He to take notes to avoid making mistakes or missing any of them.

Xia Zixuan also saw the daughters of Zhao Dahe and Liu Dazhu in the crowd, and the two girls were no longer timid.

They also dare to raise their heads and greet and talk to everyone. It seems that they are living a happy life without their mother.

Soon, it was their turn. After receiving the gifts, the two girls sincerely said to Xia Zixuan, "We have always wanted to apologize and thank the host. It was our mother's fault before. We apologize on their behalf."

"Yes, thank you for letting us come to work."
