As soon as Alessandro and Catalina were informed of the approaching army, they left the estate with Paolo and Lucia immediately. Then, the army caught up with them. Alessandro panicked, trying to think of a reason for the army to not kill them. Lucia thought of an excuse first. She told them that they were peasants from Siena, with nowhere to go except for their family in Lucca. The commander looked skeptical, but let them pass.
Once they did arrive in Lucca, though, they had no idea where to go. They didn't know anyone, and they hadn't brought anything with them. So they sold Catalina's jewelry, hoping it would be enough to rent a small house, but it wasn't. Unsure of what to do, they resorted to thievery. Lucia, being the smallest and cleverest, sneaked into a jewelry store and stole some necklaces, but the owner caught her as she was leaving. She tried to lie about what she was doing there (she claimed to have mistook it for her house) but he didn't believe her.
Hoping he would pity her and let her go, Lucia confessed. Luckily, Salvatore Rosso was a kind man, and he let the two families live in the attic. While Magdalena and Gabbriello slept and cried and did altogether very little, their parents helped Salvatore and his wife, Fiora, in the store. Salvatore's business improved, and when the familes went back to their estate, they promised to write to Salvatore and Fiora.
