Want to tease the prince, the cat is soft and delicate

Chapter 261 The whole family leaves the city

When I woke up, the sky in Kyoto had changed.

While eating lunch, a servant came into the room in a hurry.

"Sir, everything is packed and we can leave anytime."

Master Wen hummed, then looked at Mei Susu: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is too busy to come and see you off."

Mei Susu understood what he meant.

She nodded obediently: "Don't worry, Master. I understand you."

Shan Yanjing corrected her: "Little sister, you should change your words and call me daddy."

Mei Susu was stunned for a moment, then realized her current identity. She was now the youngest daughter of Grand Tutor Wen, and her name was Shan Ruijin. It was fine to call her Grand Tutor in private, but if she got used to it and called her that in public, it would easily cause trouble.

Mei Susu immediately changed her words: "Daddy."

Master Wen responded, but was afraid that Mei Susu was not used to being called that, so he said, "You should be more careful in front of others, but behind others, just do whatever you feel comfortable with."

"Yes, don't be shy. This will be your home from now on."

Mrs. Shan echoed that Mei Susu was very cute and well-behaved. Upon closer inspection, she found that she was quite similar to her deceased youngest daughter. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her.

"Su Su knows." Mei Su Su responded softly.

Mrs. Shan picked up a shrimp for her and told her to eat more, as they would have to hurry on their journey. Although there would be dry food on the road, it could not compare to this meal.

Mei Susu smiled and started biting it, then thanked him.

Master Wen talked about the upcoming departure schedule and carefully told his confidants what to pay attention to.

When Mei Susu heard Master Wen say that they could leave Kyoto in an hour, her eyes turned slightly red as she buried her head in her rice.

Although she said that she understood Xuanyuan Che, she still felt resentful.

She blamed him for not telling her anything, and for sending her away, leaving her alone to face danger in Kyoto.

She blamed him for not even coming to see her off, let alone giving her an explanation, even though she would not be able to see him for several months.

The most important thing is that he didn't leave any of her treasures for her!

Her pockets are now cleaner than her face, and she has no money at all. She is very panicked!

After lunch, Mei Susu was wrapped tightly by Mrs. Shan, and then the family got on the carriage.

Madam Shan and Old Lady Shan were in one carriage, Mei Susu and Shan Yanjing were in one carriage, and Master Wen was in a separate carriage.

The whole family left the city, which caused quite a stir.

Along the way, many of Wen Taishi's colleagues in the officialdom stopped the carriage and asked why he was leaving the city.

Master Wen evaded the question by saying that he was visiting relatives before the New Year.

Many ministers left the city during the New Year, and Master Wen was not unique.

In addition, although they took luggage and valuables with them on their trip, they were not planning on returning to Beijing, so although there were a lot of things, it was not enough to arouse suspicion.

Anyone I met just asked a few questions and then left.

After leaving the city, the sound of horse hooves could be heard from outside the carriage from time to time.

Shan Yanjing finally couldn't help but opened the carriage window and took a look outside.

Just then, a team of armored guards rode past their carriage.

Mei Susu recognized their clothes; they were the imperial guards of the palace.

They are not in the palace to protect the emperor, but appear here instead. It seems that Kyoto will not be peaceful for two days.

Shan Yanjing leaned over to look a few more times, then her ears turned red from the cold wind, and she retracted her neck and closed the window.

She kept rubbing her hands and breathing out, her little face was red, and it looked like she was frozen.

Mei Susu took out the hot water bottle from her sleeve and handed it to her: "Hold it to warm your hands."

As the hot water bottle came close to Shan Yanjing, it emitted a burst of heat, with the fragrance of Mei Susu's body. Shan Yanjing couldn't be polite and took it with a smile.

Then he sighed comfortably: "It's so warm~"

Mei Susu smiled, revealing her two little canine teeth: "When Sister Jing came out, Madam asked you to bring a hot water bottle, but you refused to bring one. Now you feel warm because you are cold."

Shan Yanjing chuckled and touched her nose: "I hate wearing these little things the most. If it weren't for my mother, I wouldn't even be willing to wear this red hairpin on my head. But I don't wear it, and my mother says I don't look like a girl. And as for embroidery, painting, women's virtues and precepts, I don't learn or read them, so my mother scolds me. Little sister, tell me, isn't it unreasonable?"

Mei Susu covered her mouth and laughed secretly. Although they had been together for a short time, she could tell that Shan Yanjing's personality did not seem to be that of a lady from a wealthy family.

"Sister Jing doesn't like these, so what do you like?"

"I like abacus, I like horses, and I like doing business."

Speaking of this, Shan Yanjing suddenly became excited and moved to the side of Mei Susu: "Let me tell you, little sister, I bought a batch of spices at a low price a few days ago. Guess what, within two or three days, there was a heavy snowfall in Laoshan, which killed a lot of spice seedlings. The spices I bought at a low price were finally sold at five times the price, making a lot of money."

Shan Yanjing's face was full of pride when she talked about this. Mei Susu was sincerely happy for her and also admired her for her ability to see the situation.

"I never thought Sister Jing actually likes doing business."

Shan Yanjing held the hot water bottle in her hand, looking unhappy: "But even if I like it, what can I do? I am a woman, and I was born in an official family. I am destined not to be able to do business."

Since ancient times, among the three classes of scholars, farmers, workers and merchants, merchants were the lowest class.

It can be seen that businessmen are not welcome.

As a modern person, it is not difficult for Mei Susu to understand why businessmen are the lowest, because when your interests touch the interests of certain people, those who have more power than you will suppress you.

Merchants are the richest, and many ministers have close dealings with them in private, but when they put their dealings with them in public, they think their status is too low.

"I don't think so." Mei Susu said.

Shan Yanjing looked at her, somewhat confused about what she meant.

"If Sister Jing really likes it, you must have the courage to fight for it. You have never fought for it, so how do you know it won't work? Besides, Sister Jing has the Shan family as her backer, so I think this deal will go more smoothly. Why should you worry?"

Shan Yanjing's eyes lit up, but then became depressed: "No, if those ministers in the capital knew about this, they would definitely point at my father's spine and scold him. Not having a son is my father's biggest worry. Then people would say that my Shan family has no one to support the family, and we need a woman to show up in public.

What's more, my mother doesn't like me to do these things. If I really did this, my mother would be mad to death."

Mei Susu knew that Shan Yanjing had a wise mind for business, but also an restless heart, but at the same time, she had many concerns.

After all, she is not the daughter of an ordinary family, and she does not have the courage to do anything reckless.

Mei Susu didn't persuade her much. Every family has its own problems. She could give advice, but she couldn't encourage.

It would be good if Shan Yanjing could stay contented and stick to her identity as the daughter of Grand Master Wen, get married and have children.

But Mei Susu had a hunch that with Shan Yanjing's personality, he might not be able to accept his fate.

Some people are not destined to spend their lives trapped in a big house.

It would be a pity if she was really confined to this small world.
