Chapter 162
Master Shen was a celebrity in their city. Any family with children would order the beggar's chicken after hearing his introduction.
Upon hearing this, Jin Yi, who was standing nearby, immediately turned pale and shouted sternly, "How dare you! My young master is of noble birth; how can he be compared to a mere scholar?"
This is extremely disrespectful.
Jin Yi was a commander who had seen blood. When he got angry, he exuded a murderous aura that terrified the waiter so much that his legs went weak and he almost knelt down.
Sitting in the main seat, Song Xuan lightly tapped the table and spoke in a cold voice: "Jin Yi."
As soon as she finished speaking, the air pressure in the room seemed to drop a few degrees. Although Jin Yi fell silent, it made the waiter even more terrified.
He felt that although the young man in black spoke calmly, he was more terrifying than the other young man.
At this moment, Xiao Yanqing spoke up in a serious tone: "Jinyi, you must not bully others. When you are away from home, you cannot act as you would at home."
Jin Yi listened attentively: "Young Master is right."
The young prince is indeed becoming more and more like His Majesty; he is a spitting image of His Majesty.
Xiao Yanqing gave Jin Yi an admiring look, then continued ordering food.
A moment later, the food was served.
Xiao Yanqing called out to the waiter who was about to leave, and asked with some curiosity, "Is that female teacher in the city an extraordinary person?"
He was very curious about the female tutor and wanted to see how she differed from the Grand Scholar in the palace.
The waiter glanced at Song Xuan, who was in the main seat, before carefully speaking: "That Master Shen is indeed an extraordinary person. The most mischievous child in the city went to her school and soon turned over a new leaf and became very well-behaved."
He dared not say much, only picking out things that wouldn't offend anyone.
Xiao Yanqing blinked her big eyes, seemingly lost in thought.
After finishing their meal, Song Xuan discussed matters concerning the granary with Jin Yi. Little Yan Qing listened for a while, then toddled to the window with her short legs.
Outside the window, a light drizzle continued to fall, and pedestrians on the street walked with umbrellas, making the entire city of mist and rain resemble an ink wash painting.
Little Yanqing looked on with curiosity, stretching his chubby little hands out the window to catch the misty rain, and then quietly counting the oil-paper umbrellas on the street.

On the other side, Shen Qingnian was resting at home today. After dinner, she deliberately went out for a walk, something she didn't usually do.
She was aloof and wouldn't come to the streets unless she had something to do. She was out today because Zhou An wouldn't tell the truth, and she wanted to see if there was anything unusual in the city.
Shen Qingnian walked slowly down the street with her umbrella. As she approached the largest inn in the city, she noticed a crowd gathering ahead. It was a newly opened grain shop selling rice.
Complaints could be heard from the crowd from time to time: "You're not being honest, boss. You're selling good rice and bad rice together. Isn't that cheating people?"
"Buy it or not, it's up to you! This rice is sold cheaply anyway. So what if some of it is a little spoiled? You can just wash it and eat it!" The shopkeeper's voice was strong and his tone was very self-righteous.
Hearing the sounds coming from the crowd, Shen Qingnian paused for a moment, then walked towards the grain shop.
A moment later, she came out carrying a small bag of rice. Seeing that the pastry shop opposite the inn was Xiao Shenxi's favorite, she walked over there.
