"Gululu~"

After calming her rumbling stomach, Shu Ran first took a sip of soup to warm it up.

Similar to corn and pork rib soup, the soup is sweet and clear, with the aroma of corn, and the meat tastes especially delicious. However, the huge bone made Shu Ran sigh once again, "The animals in the food world are really robust!"

After she finished eating, Shu Ran didn't forget the three cats in her backpack.

I prepared a mixture of cat food, freeze-dried food, and canned food for the three cats, fed them until they were full, and then put them back in my backpack.

One of them took up one backpack slot.

After confirming that no one was in the yard, Shu Ran emptied the bedroom, leaving only a note lying on the ground.

Shu Ran closed the door, picked up her packed bundle, and left the courtyard, heading straight for the back door.

The back door is secluded and less crowded.

Shu Ran ignored the servants who hurried by carrying things on the way.

As they were leaving, they ran into the fifth concubine, who was carrying her daughter, a bundle on her back, and a suitcase, also leaving the Qian family.

The two remained silent, while the three-year-old baby smiled happily at Shu Ran and nestled obediently in the Fifth Concubine's arms.

“My name is Fu Huan. My daughter will take my surname from now on and be named Fu Qingyan.”

The fifth concubine suddenly spoke up.

Shu Ran understood immediately: "Goodbye, Aunt Fu."

"We may never see each other again. Take care."

From now on, there is no longer a fifth concubine of the Qian family. She is free!

Fu Huan didn't turn around, a smile on her face, and strode forward with Fu Qingyan in her arms.

Shu Ran also left quickly and found a secluded place to change her clothes.

When she came out again, she was a dirty little beggar, and you couldn't tell at all what she looked like before, so delicate and cute.

Shu Ran decided that she would beg her way north!

Of course, she doesn't rely entirely on her two legs; trains and hover shoes can be her means of transportation, but this kind of attire won't attract unwanted attention.

Shu Ran was carrying a broken bowl, with a tattered little basket on her back with a lid, and a self-defense stick that looked like a wooden stick in her hand.

Made by Interstellar, these extendable and simulate human appearances, are lightweight, can be charged by solar energy, and can stun people or beasts. They have many uses and cost only 50 Star Coins. She bought two.

She was going to visit No. 169, Baimao Hutong, Liuan Street, Weicheng, and also to stock up on some things along the way to see the beautiful landscape of her motherland.

If the development process were similar, I wonder if she could have preserved her five-courtyard house in Weicheng during those years.

She needs to take care of some things; she needs to pack up her belongings and rent out the yard.

If possible, she would like to attend the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China.

I went to the train station first, but it was too early and there weren't many people there. I found out that there was a northbound train at 8 pm tonight.

"Sister, give me a train ticket to Liaocheng, the one for tonight."

Shu Ran stood on tiptoe, trying to reach the counter, but she couldn't even peek out.

Who are you calling "sister"? He's the only one filling in for the ticket seller!

The ticket seller heard the sound but couldn't see anyone, so he had to stick his head out.

Seeing that it was a child dressed in tattered clothes, he didn't get angry.

“Kid, call me brother, not sister! Where are your parents? Tell them to come and buy tickets with their ID.”

Thinking about the identification document she had never seen before, Shu Ran gave up the idea of ​​buying a ticket.

She didn't want to evade the fare! But the conditions didn't allow it.

"Thank you, brother. I'm going to find my mother now."

Shu Ran quickly ran away, planning to come back later that night and sneak onto the train!

After changing into clean clothes, Shu Ran put away her beggar's clothes.

She needed to get a room at the inn to sleep in, but she couldn't be dressed in dirty clothes, or she would be kicked out.

Dressing too nicely is also not a good idea, as it might attract unwanted attention.

The richly dressed child, all alone, looked easy to bully.

Near the train station, Shu Ran found a clean little inn and checked in smoothly.

After locking the door, Shu Ran went straight to sleep.

When I woke up, it was already dark.

Shu Ran sat up abruptly and glanced at her watch.

18:37

Thank goodness, I didn't miss it.

After finishing off the leftovers from breakfast, her stomach was bulging. Having taken care of her business, Shu Ran checked out of the hotel and followed the crowd to the train station.

Watching the people coming and going in the station, Shu Ran quietly squatted in an inconspicuous corner, waiting for the train to arrive so she could rush up with the crowd.

After an unknown amount of time, a long whistle sounded, and the train pulled into the station.

Shu Ran stood up quickly, stomped her slightly numb feet, picked a kind-looking auntie, and followed behind her, pretending to be with her.

There were so many people that Shu Ran was pushed forward, her feet barely touching the ground. Luckily, her shoes fit perfectly and didn't fall off.

With her small arms and legs, Shu Ran couldn't squeeze through the huge crowd around her at all, and could only move haphazardly with the crowd.

Having successfully boarded the train, Shu Ran, clutching her package, quietly crouched down in a corner.

"Woo——"

The train chugged along, and Shu Ran breathed a sigh of relief. She would arrive in Liaocheng the day after tomorrow, rest for a few days, and then continue by train north to Weicheng. After finishing her business there, she would go to the capital for a visit.

Having slept all day, Shu Ran couldn't fall back asleep, so she secretly opened the trading interface, a window only she could see, so she wasn't afraid of being discovered.

After getting off the train with her luggage, Shu Ran stood blankly on the street, listening to the Shanghainese accents of the people around her.

Shu Ran fell silent. She had originally intended to go north, so how did she end up in Shanghai?

Well, since we're already here, let's look around a bit before we leave.

It was still morning when Shu Ran got off the train. She listened to the shouts on the street, smelled the aroma of fried food, and her stomach started to rumble.

Clutching the package, I followed the smell to a small stall.

Shu Ran looked at the lavish breakfast that the person in front of her was carrying away and said to the shop owner, "Boss, I want the same one as the previous one."

"Alright, here are your Four Heavenly Kings!"

Soy milk, fried dough sticks, flatbread, and glutinous rice balls are the authentic breakfasts of Shanghai, commonly known as the "Four Heavenly Kings".

She was given a silver dollar, and Shu Ran carefully kept the change. She then found a hotel that looked quite luxurious, which later became the famous Peace Hotel featured in movies and TV dramas, and booked a room.

She was in a hurry to take a shower, and because of the jostling and pushing on the train, she was now covered in sweat and smelled terrible!

After changing into clean clothes, Shu Ran returned to her previous refined appearance.

Only then did she have time to examine the restaurant. Compared to later generations, the decor was quite good, even better than some hotels.

After a good night's sleep, Shu Ran got up and went downstairs to the Western restaurant for dinner.

"How many of you are there, Miss?"

The waiter bowed slightly, not giving the child any perfunctory treatment.

"One."

"Okay, please sit here, it's quieter here."

Without asking any further questions, the waiter led Shu Ran to a table and handed her the menu.

Not in Chinese, Shu Ran calmly closed the menu and ordered directly: "Wellington steak, salad, and a chocolate cake, please."
