Just as she was preparing to go home, a carriage came to her door. After the carriage stopped, Shangguan Chuyue and her personal servant, Yun'er, got off the carriage.
It had been a long time since he last saw Shangguan Chuyue, and he didn't know what he had been doing at home recently. After what happened to Shangguan Yuyan, she couldn't even casually leave his house.
Therefore, every time Shangguan Chuyue wanted to go out and play, he would have to wait until Master Shang Shu was not home, and no one would care about her, so he sneaked out to play.
"Xiaoyan, Xiaoxia, I came to play with you guys." Shangguan Chuyue ran to the entrance of the shop and said happily.
"Big Sister Chuyue, it's been a long time since we last saw you playing, we didn't dare to come and find you either." Mo Xiaoxia was also very happy to see Shangguan Chuyue.
"Sigh, don't mention it. Recently, my father didn't even allow me to casually enter or leave the Minister's Mansion. Today, coincidentally, he's not at home, so I ran out." Shangguan Chuyue sighed and said.
"We are just about to close the door and return home, Chuyue, you go and play too." The Lady Li said with a smile.
"Alright, aunty. That's what I was thinking. It's also raining right now. Let's go together in the carriage." Shangguan Chuyue had always wanted to come over and play with Mo Xiaoyan and the others.
The few of them got into Shangguan Chuyue's carriage and went back home together. Fortunately, the carriage arrived at their doorstep without being drenched by the rain.
When Shangguan Chuyue came over today, Lady Li would definitely cook a good meal for him.
Shangguan Chuyue felt that the food cooked by the Lady Li was very tasty, so he would eat a lot of it every time.
When they were eating, Yun'er stood at the side, which was a rule. He had already gotten used to it using his Minister's Mansion, but when it was only Shangguan Chuyue and Yun'er who were together, Shangguan Chuyue treated Yun'er as his good friend. He would even treat Yun'er as if he was sitting at the same table.
"Young lady, come and sit down and eat together with us." Lady Li called out.
"No, I ate in the afternoon." After being a servant girl for so many years, Yun'er was already used to this, and felt that there was nothing bad about it.
Mo Xiaoyan and her family were not used to it, especially Lady Li and Mo Dalin, they felt that she came to their house, so they couldn't possibly let her stand there all the time while they were eating, even if she was a servant.
"Yun'er, we're all on the same side. You don't have to be so restrained. Come sit down and eat together. Have a taste of the food Aunt made. It's delicious, I like it the most." Shangguan Chuyue felt that they had come from outside. This was not at the Minister's Mansion, they did not need to be so clear about one another.
Hearing Shangguan Chuyue's words, Yun'er walked over and sat down. It was her first time eating in a place like this, but Yun'er didn't have the nerve to take any food.
Seeing that Yun'er was sitting there rather casually, the Lady Li brought a few chopsticks into the bowl and said, "Miss, I don't know what you like to eat, it's just common food, so don't be so polite and come here and treat this place as your own. If you want to eat anything, just pick it up, don't be so polite."
When Yun'er heard what the Lady Li had to say, she could not help but feel a little sour in her heart. Her parents had sold themselves off for the sake of money, but fortunately they met such a good master like Shangguan Chuyue.
"Mm. Alright." Yun'er lowered her head, her eyes red as she ate silently.
Yun'er also felt that Mo Xiaoyan's family was very good. She felt a sense of familiarity, as if they were home.
Xiao Yu was still eating, so they could only go into Mo Xiaoyan's room to sit and chat.
After chatting for some time, the sky had already darkened before Shangguan Chuyue reluctantly bade farewell and returned.
It was already autumn and the weather was cold. It was a rainy day again, and the night was still a little cold, but the blanket over him was still the same as the thin summer blanket. The moment she fell asleep, Mo Xiaoyan was so cold that she couldn't fall asleep.
After a few consecutive days of rain, the weather suddenly became colder. Mo Xiaoyan still liked this kind of weather.
In the afternoon, the shop closed rather early. After Mo Xiaoyan returned home to eat, she went to rest. However, she was still lying on the bed and did not sleep.
Not long after he laid down, someone knocked on the door.
"Who's outside?" Mo Xiaoyan thought that Mo Xiaoxia wouldn't be able to sleep so she came over to chat with her.
"It's me." At this time, Su Jinxuan was standing outside the door.
When Mo Xiaoyan heard Su Jinxuan's voice, she immediately got up and put on her jacket before going out to open the door for him.
After opening the door, Mo Xiaoyan saw that Su Jinxuan seemed to be rather haggard, it had only been a few days since they last met, why did he feel so haggard now, I wonder what he has been busy with these few days.
"Come in." Mo Xiaoyan opened the door and let Su Jinxuan in. The wind outside was cold, even if it was so strong.
After Su Jinxuan entered, Mo Xiaoyan closed the door.
"Xiaoyan, let's set off tomorrow." Su Jinxuan said as he sat down.
"Why are you so fast?" I haven't even told my parents yet, so what should I do? " Mo Xiaoyan was worried that the Lady Li and Mo Dalin might not agree.
"It's fine, you can go and tell them tomorrow morning." Su Jinxuan had specially come this time to tell Mo Xiaoyan to tell her to pack her things first, and that he would come tomorrow afternoon to pick her up so that they could set off together.
"What if they don't agree?" Mo Xiaoyan also sat in front of Su Jinxuan.
"No, as long as you have a good talk with them, you won't disagree." Su Jinxuan had already told Mo Dalin before, and Mo Dalin had already agreed. Therefore, Su Jinxuan was not worried about this.
"Then have you packed your things? I thought you would have told me a few days in advance. I didn't expect you to be in such a hurry. " Mo Xiaoyan felt that the time to return was very far. She needed to prepare more things, otherwise, she wouldn't be able to buy anything on the way back.
"I've already prepared everything. All you need to do is to prepare some clothes. I've already prepared the other things for you." Su Jinxuan had already prepared the rations and water he would need to eat along the way, as well as some other things for you. Mo Xiaoyan only needed to pack her clothes.
"Alright then. I'll start preparing tomorrow morning. When do we set off tomorrow?" Mo Xiaoyan felt that it would be better to ask about the time first.
"Let's set off in the afternoon. Don't go to the shop tomorrow, just wait at home. When the time comes, I'll come to pick you up." Su Jinxuan warned.
"Alright, I understand." Mo Xiaoyan didn't expect that she could go back tomorrow, so she was still a little excited when she thought about it.
