"Qi An, we will leave for the capital tomorrow. Go to the county magistrate's mansion today and tell the Su family."
Lin Cuicui had already packed the things she was going to take to the capital, and came to the study to find Shen Qi'an.
"Mom, I'll be there in a minute."
Shen Qi'an placed the brush in his hand on the pen holder and collected the books spread out on the table one by one.
"Mom has prepared some things. You can take them with you when you go there later."
"good."
When Shen Qi'an saw the game and bacon in the cage, he had no intention of not taking them to the Su Mansion.
The Su family knew as early as when the engagement took place that the Shen family was currently farmers, so he thought it was reasonable to bring these things over.
Not long after, Shen Qi'an rode out on horseback, followed by a servant driving a carriage.
Instead of going directly to the county magistrate's mansion, he first took a half-day break and packed some snacks and milk tea that Su Zhihui liked.
As soon as he arrived at the county magistrate's mansion, the doorman who opened the door recognized Shen Qi'an. After all, he was his future son-in-law, how could he not recognize him?
He trotted over to lead the horse, "Master Shen, you are here. Someone has already gone to inform you."
There is no need to stop people like this, just take them directly to the mansion. Of course, someone must be sent ahead to notify them.
"Thank you very much."
“Madam, Master Shen is here. He has been led in and should be here soon.”
Mrs. Wang, who was beside Mrs. Su, hurried in to inform her after hearing the news.
Madam Su put down the account book in her hand and said, "Mother Wang, have someone notify Heng'er and Ah Hui."
"yes."
She continued to look at the account book in her hand. If she guessed correctly, Shen Qi'an came to say goodbye this time.
I've said before that I'll be going to the capital soon, and it's almost time now.
"Aunt Su, my mother asked me to bring some things over. She has already sent them to the kitchen."
Shen Qi'an sat down in the reception room when Madam Su arrived.
"Come on, sister asked you to bring something. Stay here for lunch today."
"good."
Shen Qi'an did not refuse. He didn't know how long it would take for him to see Su Zhihui again after he went to the capital, so naturally he wanted to see her as soon as possible.
"Mother Dou, go to the kitchen and tell them to make a few dishes for lunch today using what Qi An brought."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Auntie, these are snacks for you and Ah Hui."
Mrs. Su's maid took the food and put it on a plate before serving it. She knew very well that it was not for him at all, but was clearly what Ah Hui liked to eat.
But he is good to Ahui, and as a mother, she is happy to see it.
"mother!"
Madam Su suddenly felt a headache. Didn’t Mother Wang tell her that Shen Qi’an was here?
But after seeing the doting expression on Shen Qi'an's face, she felt relieved.
"Mom, you were looking for me... Fourth brother, why are you here?"
Su Zhihui ran in, and when she saw Shen Qi'an here, she quickly braked and asked with a wry smile.
Su Heng heard her voice from behind and laughed unkindly. The change in her voice was too sudden.
“Brother Shen.”
However, he quickly walked into the hall and resolved the embarrassment for his sister.
Su Zhihui turned her back, hurriedly tidied her clothes and hair, then walked gracefully and elegantly to sit next to Madam Su.
Madam Su couldn't bear to watch, Su Heng was trying so hard to hold back his laughter that his stomach hurt, and only Shen Qi'an looked at her with a smile from beginning to end.
Mrs. Su and Su Heng were both very satisfied with his performance.
"Fourth brother, are you here to see me today?"
Madam Su coughed lightly. This child doesn't know how to be reserved!
Shen Qi'an nodded and shook his head, "I will leave for the capital tomorrow, so I came to say goodbye."
Su Zhihui exclaimed, "Ah?" "So fast? But luckily, my luggage has been packed."
Shen Qi'an looked at Su Zhihui, then at Madam Su, "Aunt, what does Ah Hui mean?"
"It's like this. Lushan Academy can no longer provide much help to the child, so his father sent him to study at Zhijiao's home in Beijing. Ah Hui missed her grandparents, so she went with him."
"I'm worried about them going to the capital, so I want them to go with you. Does Your Highness agree?"
Shen Qi'an nodded, "The prince will agree."
Pei Yu wouldn't mind this little thing, but he still had to ask.
Madam Su naturally understood this, so she added, "Then please ask Qi An to ask the prince for me."
"good."
The smile on Su Zhihui's face was so bright, and she didn't show any intention of hiding it.
At noon, Shen Qi'an had lunch at Su's house and left. When he returned to Daohua Village, it was already afternoon.
This time, all the Shen family members are going to Beijing. Shen Li spent half a day to take charge of the business of the store. After all, these people have been used for a long time, so she is relieved.
However, Bai Yao was still requested to help her visit the store in Qingxi County every month.
When Chen Li returned to Daohua Village, Pei Yu had not returned yet. He had taken Mo Qing out early in the morning. No one knew where the two of them had gone. Mo Qing didn't even bring Wen Lan with him.
Xu Taohua took Shen Mochi back to the Xu family early this morning. There were only Li Qiaolan and Xu You at the Xu family. Her younger brother was studying in the county academy, and she was worried about her mother being alone at home.
But she understood that she couldn't take her mother to the capital, so she spent more time with her mother before she left.
Xu You had already passed the examination for Tongsheng and was preparing for the academy, intending to take part in this year's college entrance examination. As long as he passed the college entrance examination, he would become a scholar.
Therefore, he put all his effort into preparing for the exam. If he didn't do well or missed it this time, he would have to wait for three years, and he didn't want to wait.
After Lin Cuicui sent Shen Qi'an away, she also went to the Lin family early in the morning and did not return until the moon was hanging on the branches.
Pei Yu came back in the evening. When he came back, Chen Li had already washed up and was reading a picture book in the room.
When he noticed Pei Yu coming in, he closed the storybook. It should be said that the thoughts of the ancients were sometimes really bold and unrestrained, just like this storybook, which makes people's blood boil.
Seeing her action, Pei Yu raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Ali, what are you looking at?"
"Drawing book, why, do you want to see it too?"
Pei Yu nodded and walked to the bedside, "Okay, lend me a copy."
Chen Li: ...
"No, I bought a copy today and will show it to you after I finish reading it."
After reading it, quickly throw it into the space and hide it, and then you can get rid of it casually when the time comes.
Pei Yu sat down beside the bed. Chen Li was half leaning on the bed, with her black hair draped over her shoulders. She was wearing a nightgown that didn't reveal anything, but he didn't dare look directly at her.
