After the dinner, everyone went back to their own rooms.
Everyone in the Shen family felt unaccustomed to being served by servants, so they sent back the maids and servants sent by the Bai couple.
The yard where they live has a separate kitchenette and well, and they boil their own water for washing at night.
Just a moment after Shen Yu'an returned to the room, there was a knock on the door.
She walked over and opened the door, and found Mrs. Bai standing outside.
As soon as the door opened, Mrs. Bai asked with a smile, "Are you used to living here, Miss Shen?"
Shen Yu'an invited the person in and said, "The lady has made thoughtful arrangements, everything is good."
"It's so late, what's the matter with you, madam?"
Madam Bai took two steps inside and said, "There are indeed some things. Butler Bai has already told me what happened here this afternoon. This was our mistake. I have also sold out the maid. I just came to ask Miss Shen if she received any surprises."
Shen Yu'an understood in his heart that it was because of this matter.
Mrs. Bai, the mistress of the house, was sincere enough to come and personally question the 'frightened' victim.
Shen Yu'an didn't hold back, she said directly: "It's all right now, Madam Lao is worried about you."
Mrs. Bai expressed her apologies and left on the pretext of not disturbing Shen Yu'an's rest.
…
The next morning, everyone got up early because they had agreed yesterday to go around the city and buy some things, and then say goodbye to the Bai family tomorrow.
Bai Ji knew the Shen family's plan and originally wanted to keep them for a while, but the Shen family was determined, so he could only let Bai Mingxi take them to the provincial capital for a tour.
Something happened in the Bai family's shop, so Bai Ji and Mrs. Bai went to the shop together to sort out the matter, while the brothers Bai Mingzhi and Bai Mingjia also went to the school in the provincial capital to continue their classes.
The rest of the people, along with Bai Wu and Bai Miaoqing, father and daughter, were taken shopping in the city by Bai Mingxi.
Bai Mingxi glanced at Shen Yu'an shyly, and happily took over the matter.
Before leaving, Fei Yanche glanced at Bai Mingxi unhappily, then called out to Shen Yu'an.
He lowered his head and said softly, "An'an, I have something to go out for, so you should have fun when you go out."
Shen Yu'an didn't ask him what he was going to do, but nodded and said, "Okay, then you should be careful."
The Shen family changed into their own clothes and followed Bai Mingxi out of the Bai Mansion.
Longxian Village is not far from the provincial capital but not too close either. Once they return to Longxian Village, if they want to buy something, it would be more convenient to buy it in the town over there.
Therefore, their main purpose of going out is to inquire about the situation and take a look at the local customs and practices.
The group felt that everything they saw was new and interesting, especially the lively atmosphere on this street, which was incomparable to ten places they had lived in before.
Little Zhang is too pregnant now, and everyone is worried that she might get hurt after coming out, so they simply didn't bring her out, and Chen Yun also stayed in the Bai Mansion to accompany her.
Sanlang, Silang, Wulang, Liulang, Hanan and Hualing, six people, walked in the front, looking left and right.
Suddenly, a voice called out: "Tanghulu, red and round Tanghulu."
Sanlang, Liulang and Hualing, who were walking in front, ran over and asked the vendor to give them a string of candied haws.
The vendor selling candied haws looked at the three children and saw that there were many adults and children following them, so he happily picked three strings of candied haws and handed them to them.
Then he looked at Mr. Shen and the others and said, "Sir, please give a bunch to the other children in the family."
Hua Ling took a bite of the candied haws and said, "Hmm, sour and sweet, really delicious."
Liu Lang was drooling at the sourness.
The other people were also very excited and ordered a string each. In no time, the straw target carried by the candied haws vendor was almost half empty.
A string of candied haws cost three cents. Old Mrs. Shen counted the copper coins she had prepared and handed them to the vendor.
Everyone held a string of candied haws in their hands and started to walk to other places.
Whenever they came across snacks along the way, they would buy some.
Fortunately, there were many of them who came out, so even if Bai Mingxi went out without bringing his servants, they could still capture it.
Bai Mingxi was also very enthusiastic and was eager to help them buy things.
The Shen family just thought that Bai Mingxi listened to the instructions of the Bai couple and did not think about anything else.
After walking around, everyone bought a lot of food and nothing else.
When they arrived in front of a jewelry store, Bai Mingxi secretly glanced at Shen Yuan and found that she had no jewelry on her head.
It's too simple. The girls in the city all wear gold and silver.
He suddenly stopped, and the people behind him also stopped.
Shen Dalang asked, "Brother Mingxi, why don't you leave?"
Bai Mingxi felt a little uncomfortable. He couldn't say that he wanted to go in and buy some accessories for Shen Yu'an.
No, they will definitely think they are frivolous.
When he turned around, he happened to see Bai Miaoqing, who was walking not far from him, also had no jewelry on her head.
He coughed lightly and said, "Sister Miaoqing just came back, I want to go in and buy her some jewelry."
After saying that, he glanced back and invited, "You guys can come in and give me some advice."
Bai Miaoqing was surprised when she heard Bai Mingxi say he wanted to help her buy some jewelry.
It was the second day after she arrived, and her aunt had already prepared jewelry and other things for her. Why did her eldest brother suddenly bring up this matter?
Just when she was looking at Bai Mingxi in confusion and wanted to refuse, she saw her eldest cousin glancing back.
Bai Miaoqing looked back following his gaze and found that the person he was looking at was Shen Yu'an.
Bai Miaoqing smiled secretly, it seemed that her cousin had other intentions than drinking.
Anyway, she didn't plan to get married in this life, so she would definitely stay in the Bai Mansion.
She also liked An'an very much. If her elder brother was interested in An'an, it would be a pleasure to marry her.
However, Fei Yanche, who is also the prince of Wuding, seems to have some interest in Anan as well, so he has taken the lead.
Although he is in trouble now, who knows, he may become a high and mighty prince or future king one day.
Her elder brother's condition is not optimistic.
However, if Fei Yanche really returns to Beijing and recognizes his identity, if Anan follows him, won’t she have to compete with a group of women for favors all day long?
In just that moment, Bai Miaoqing had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
