Chapter 1415: A small inn on the border
Futi just walked down from the stage.
A servant followed behind him, holding a tray filled with a variety of rewards.
His piano playing is elegant and has always attracted more than just a few people.
Su Chan was brought by the shopkeeper himself, and was about to go on stage to play the piano.
This was his first time to perform on stage at the Lanyue Tower.
In order to build momentum for him, the shopkeeper had leaked some rumors to the public, saying that he had found another musician, and even hinted that this musician was as good as Futi.
When they met on a narrow road, the shopkeeper's expression froze, especially when he just learned that Su Chan had shown his face in front of Princess Min'an and received a reward from the princess.
Facing Futi at this moment, the shopkeeper felt inexplicably guilty. He also knew that Futi had made an indelible contribution to the success of Lanyue Tower.
But the shopkeeper did not want to see Fu Ti alone in power, especially since Su Chan had already won the favor of the second prince and was an even more rare commodity.
Su Chan was also secretly looking at Futi.
Although he had only officially come to Lanyue Tower today, the name Futi had already been well-known to him. No one even knew that he had secretly come to Lanyue Tower many times before and had secretly spied on and listened to Futi's piano playing.
Futi seemed not to understand what these people were thinking. He walked over, nodded to the shopkeeper, and said "shopkeeper" as usual.
"Oh, thank you for your hard work. This is Su Chan. I thought there would be many people coming to drink tea in the afternoon, so the table can't be left empty all the time." The shopkeeper explained stubbornly.
Futi didn't have any special reaction. She looked at Su Chan, nodded to him, and then continued walking forward.
He bought a medium-sized house on a street not far from Lanyue Tower. He would return here after playing the piano every day.
Halfway along the way, the servant behind him couldn't help but take a step forward and said in a low voice, "Sir, I heard..."
"I know."
Unexpectedly, Futi interrupted him directly, with a faint smile on her lips, "We just play the piano, other things have nothing to do with us."
"But..." The servant followed him for a long time, frowning in grievance, but when he met Futi's eyes, he silently chose to shut up.
His son has always been like this, knowing everything but unwilling to say anything. Normally, when he encountered something, he would pretend to be stupid if he could, but this time...
The servant frowned more and more as he thought about it, and stomped his feet in anger as he looked at Futi's nonchalant back.
There are several old ginkgo trees planted in the Xuanyuan ancestral home. They have gradually sprouted new tender leaves this year, sweeping away the loneliness of the ancestral home and revealing a sense of prosperity.
Shi Li stood under the tree, looking up and thinking, if these ginkgo trees can bear fruit successfully, she will send them back to the inn and ask Xu Su to make porridge for her.
Well, after being away from the desert for so long, she felt a little homesick.
Shi Li sighed, and then heard a servant coming over to announce that Princess Min'an had come to deliver a gift.
Because Princess Min'an specifically stated that the gift was for her, Xuanyuan Lin simply did not come out to meet her and only let Shi Li come to receive the princess.
Everyone had walked the same route from the desert to the imperial city, and they were already very familiar with each other, and Princess Min'an didn't know how to pick gifts.
"Princess, this gift...I really can't afford it."
Shi Li didn't want to be too polite, but when she saw the three boxes of valuable gifts brought by Princess Min'an, she really couldn't accept them openly.
"Don't worry, accept it. If there is anything I need from you and Mr. Xuanyuan in the future, I will not be polite to you."
Princess Min'an knew Shi Li's personality, so she spoke to her directly.
Shi Li had no choice but to accept it.
After talking for a while, the servant beside Lord Min'an came up to her and reminded her politely, "Your Highness, it will be noon in two quarters."
"If Princess has something to do, we'll meet again another day." Shi Li thought Min'an still had things to deal with, so she immediately said reasonably.
Princess Min'an asked the servant to leave and replied with a smile: "Nothing, I just want to go to Lanyue Tower to have a cup of tea, Lili, do you want to go with me?"
Seeing Princess Min'an's calm and generous look, Shi Li didn't hesitate for a second and immediately nodded in agreement.
Whether it was the carnival for her friends or her own gossipy soul, she had to go on this trip!
Or... before leaving, should we find a chance to have someone tell Sun Jingyu?
If she missed it, she would probably cry...
