Traveling through time and space

"Princess, I am Madam Ji, the housekeeper of the Princess's Mansion." The old woman who spoke bowed and introduced herself.

"Hello, Aunt Ji. Please take Yuanyuan to meet Auntie." Su Yuanyuan nodded, walked a few steps, and stopped in front of a courtyard. Someone went in to pass on a message, and Su Yuanyuan entered the courtyard, "Yuanyuan meets Auntie Princess."

"Please sit down, girl. Aunt is aunt, and your father has asked me to raise you in the future. You should call me your foster mother." Aunt pointed to the seat next to her. The table was already filled with many delicious foods.

In fact, Su Yuanyuan didn't hate this aunt either. "Aunt, are you really willing to recognize Yuanyuan as your daughter? Aren't you afraid that Yuanyuan will make you angry?" Su Yuanyuan asked.

"Of course not, because Auntie doesn't like that kind of life that sticks to the rules, but Auntie's identity is beyond her control. At this age, Auntie has come to her senses. Instead of living like that, it's better to follow her own wishes. Don't worry, Auntie won't restrict you. As long as it's not too excessive, I will follow you. Your father also said that from now on, outside the palace, I will protect you."

"Then Yuanyuan thanks stepmother," Su Yuanyuan bowed and then sat down.

"All of you go out, let me and my daughter talk." Auntie dismissed everyone and watched them leave. "Having them here can help us restrain ourselves. We have to follow all the rules all day long."

"Thank you, stepmother. Yuanyuan just can't stand those restrictions," Su Yuanyuan sat down and picked out her favorite dishes to eat. "Stepmother, when can Yuanyuan see her brother?"

"Alas." Aunt Stepmother shook her head helplessly. "I haven't seen him properly in years. Six months ago, I heard from the guards that every day at midnight, Jing'er would sit on the roof, staring at the sky in a daze. I didn't dare disturb him, nor did I dare let anyone else disturb him. I hope he can get over it soon."

"Stepmother, this is fine. My brother is an adult, and his parents are still here. He won't be stuck in this forever. Give him some time, let him recover, and he'll get over it on his own. No one can understand the pain in my brother's heart. This can be considered a way for him to pay tribute to his deceased wife and children."

"You are such a good child. Mother believes that you two siblings will get along very well."

"Mother, Yuanyuan is still thinking of tricking her brother into giving her some money to spend." Su Yuanyuan acted coquettishly.

"Okay, mother supports you. Is the salary you receive from the palace not enough? Then mother will give you some money."

"No need, Yuanyuan has earned a lot of money this year, and grandma also left a lot."

"But wasn't the money your grandmother left behind divided among the Cai family?"

"Half was divided, and the other half is in Yuanyuan's hands. Besides, it was father who paid for the construction of the courtyard, so Yuanyuan still has a lot of money."

"Mom believes you. I heard that you were the one who made that soy sauce?"

"Mom has already investigated Yuanyuan. Yes, Yuanyuan sold the soy sauce to Mr. Lu and others and got two hundred thousand taels of silver. So since Yuanyuan has a way to make money, she has a way to live..." The mother and daughter talked for a long time until late at night and went to bed. Ever since Xiaoyue left the space, she had a spiritual water bath every night. After taking a bath and preparing to rest, she looked outside and saw so many stars. "You all should rest." Su Yuanyuan sat by the window and suddenly remembered what her mother had said. Su Yuanyuan was very curious about this brother. He was an infatuated man. She really wanted to see what kind of person he was.

"Master, what do you want to do?" Su Yuanyuan opened the door, but the sound of the door woke up the person on duty.

"You guys go to sleep and turn off all the lights in the yard. This princess just moved to a new place and can't sleep. I want to get some fresh air." Su Yuanyuan wanted to go to the roof to take a look. All the lights in the yard were off and it was pitch black. Su Yuanyuan looked around and saw no one. With the help of the trees in the flower bed, Su Yuanyuan jumped onto the roof.

"Sister, Xiaoyue will accompany you," Xiaoyue asked.

"No need, you should rest early." Su Yuanyuan found a comfortable place to sit down. It was really late at night and quiet, so quiet that she could hear her own heartbeat. Su Yuanyuan simply changed her posture and sat down to meditate, and think carefully about the past, present and future arrangements. It was a rare quietness. After an hour, when she was really calm, Su Yuanyuan got off the roof. Using this moment, Su Yuanyuan wondered if she could see that person, but she saw nothing. Su Yuanyuan knew that she could not go looking for him on purpose, lest he become suspicious.

"Yuanyuan, are you ready?" Unexpectedly, her mother came to Baoyiyuan in person to pick up Su Yuanyuan and take her to the academy. "Your clothes are so simple and elegant?"

"Mother, although I have expressed my filial piety towards my grandmother, Yuanyuan wants to dress more simply and elegantly this year."

"Good boy, your mother didn't give birth to you in vain, and the old lady didn't love you in vain. Your mother will follow you."

"Yuanyuan thanks mother for taking the trouble to make this trip today," Su Yuanyuan stepped forward and took her mother's arm.

"It's okay. I'm your mother. I'll be involved in everything you do. After you've completed the apprenticeship ceremony, I'll organize your coming-of-age ceremony."

"Thank you, mother." Su Yuanyuan acted coquettishly. When she arrived at Rongde Academy, Su Yuanyuan was also shocked. Many sentences were written by herself last time, such as "A dead tree will sprout again when spring comes", "A man can never be young again", "A man of ambition does not need age, while a man without ambition will live to be a hundred years old", "If young people do not work hard, they will regret it when old", "Study hard and make progress every day", "There are top talents in all 360 professions", "Ice is born from water but is colder than water", "A disciple is better than his teacher", "You only regret not having read enough when you need it", "You don't know how difficult things are until you have experienced them", "It's so exaggerated." Su Yuanyuan was really embarrassed. What was even more embarrassing was still to come. After entering the academy, all the students she met would bow and greet her. Su Yuanyuan was really shy.

"Greetings to the eldest princess, and greetings to Princess Anle." The eldest brother Pei Zepeng came over, and there were a few others, including Ge Congwen and the second brother.

"No need to be so polite." The eldest princess nodded.

"Hello, eldest brother, tenth brother-in-law, second brother, everyone please stand up," Su Yuanyuan gestured for them to stand up.

"Princess, Junior Sister, please." Pei Zepeng led the way, being very respectful. Because the princess was present, Su Yuanyuan remained dignified.

"Thank you, senior brother, mother, look at the beautiful scenery of this campus." Su Yuanyuan likes it here very much... As they walked and talked.

"Princess, you are here. The headmaster and others have been waiting for you." As soon as they arrived in front of the headmaster's yard, Xiao Min stepped forward.

"Xiao Min, don't be rude." Pei Zepeng scolded.

"Please forgive me, Princess. I was rude." Xiao Min took a step back.

"This won't happen again, Xiao Min. Is the headmaster ready? Junior Sister, there are other teachers present today. I'm afraid someone might deliberately make things difficult for you."

"It's all right, Big Brother. If an enemy comes, we'll fight him. If a flood comes, we'll block it. Yuan Yuan can handle it."

"Greetings to the eldest princess, greetings to Princess Anle." It turned out that they had all left the yard and were waiting.

"Please don't be so formal, everyone. I'm not here as the eldest princess. I'm just her parent. How can her apprenticeship ceremony be held without a parent? So don't be so reserved, everyone. Please stand up." The eldest princess really has a strong aura.

"Then Princess Anle, please come in." The headmaster stepped forward.

"Teacher, my disciple is just Su Yuanyuan, not Princess Anle," Su Yuanyuan saluted Li Bei after entering the house.
