Chapter 38 – Leaving Tanyuu

Fuji Zijing never expected that this time, the task entrusted to him by the earl would actually be accomplished so smoothly-he had thought that since Eldest Young Master Fan Xian did not have a recognizable identity, he would be very resistant to going to Kyoto and touching the Second Mistress’s bad luck, and that he would certainly try to drag himself in Tantan Prefecture by all means-he did not expect that this Eldest Young Master would agree to Tantan Prefecture’s request with seemingly no concern. -I didn’t realize that this young master had agreed to the count’s request seemingly without a care in the world.

He had learned of the old madam’s decision to stay in Tanyuu early in the morning, but had not thought anything of it. As long as that nameless young master followed his own group back to the capital, as for the old lady, since she liked the seashore, she would retire here, and anyway, the earl didn’t ask for the entire Beifu to have to move back to the capital together this time.

The black troika carriage stops at the main entrance of the Beifu, the seat of the imperialist is a blue cloth cushion, blue and black, looks more beautiful. The entrance was already surrounded by the residents of Tanyu Port City, and when they saw this kind of moving gesture, they had long since gathered around, and it was only when the four phases inquired that they realized that the Fan family’s youngest master was returning to Kyoto today.

Although the residents of Tanyu Port have all the shortcomings that humans should have, such as being jealous and sharp-tongued, over the past ten years or so, when they have seen the young master Fan, who doesn’t look like a young master, strolling around the streets and shouting from the rooftops from time to time, they have always developed some feelings for him. At this time, I heard that he is going to leave, to go to Kyoto kind of prosperous place, expected most likely is never come back one day, naturally still a little sigh of sadness.

A large group of people waited for Fan Xian to step out of the house for the last time in front of the Count’s residence.

But after waiting for half a day, they still didn’t see that beautiful face that always wore a gentle smile.

The backyard was busy, and Fan Xian smiled as he leaned on a pillar and watched several maids go about their business. A maid shouted, “Toothbrush, I forgot to bring my toothbrush.” This shout caused the maids to search for half a day again.

After he came to this world, he did not have any big invention, just made the toothbrush more comfortable, turned the ponytail toothbrush that people like to use into pig hair, and at the same time made the pillow softer, used cotton instead of hard pillow, and additionally made a shower nozzle that hangs at the back of the bedroom.

There was much, much more, only it seemed that only a very small part of it could be brought to Kyoto at present.

I don’t know how long it took, but after a few large bags had stuffed the last carriage solidly, Fan Xian finally held up the old lady and, with a smile on his face, slowly walked out of the mansion.

After exchanging hands with the surrounding townspeople, Fan Xian was not surprised to see a slightly red-eyed Si Si in the crowd, thinking that she had cried last night.

Fan Xian made an exception today and wore a long shirt, lifting up the front flap, falling to the ground and bowing to the old lady.

After standing up, he then, in a manner that was completely out of keeping with the etiquette of the current world, hugged the old lady fiercely in his arms, forcefully planted a big kiss on his grandmother’s wrinkled forehead, and then said softly, “Grandmother, think of a way to find a good in-law for Sisi, at least as good as Dong’er.”

The entire household’s subordinates acted as if they hadn’t seen the young master’s foolhardy demeanor.

The old madam was also greatly shocked by the mess, breaking without thinking that her grandson, who had always been calm and understanding, actually had such a rambunctious side, knocking his forehead and scolding, “What nonsense, I will naturally take care of these things.”

Sweeping his eyes from these familiar faces in front of him, Fan Xian smiled faintly, arching his hand and saluting all around, “It’s been hard on everyone over the years.”

The subordinates and maids dared not accept the salute and hurriedly avoided it.

The old madam suddenly smiled and said, “Let’s go, don’t let your father be anxious in Kyoto, as for Si Si …… in the future if you are comfortable in the capital, I will let her come over to follow you.”

Fan Xian was stunned, and before he could part with anything, he had already gotten into the car in a confused manner. As the wheels rolled, the carriage slowly traveled out of Tanyu City.

The sky was bright, and above the blue sky, white clouds were like silk, making it exceptionally beautiful.

The carriage passed the closed grocery store, and far past the tofu stall, Fan Xian lifted the curtain and looked at the young woman at the tofu stall and the little girl who was already able to run around by her side, and a small smile appeared at the corner of his lips as he sat back in his seat.

Under the seat was an ancient black leather case.

The worst grocery store in Tanyu City had finally closed down, and the residents of the city casually made a few remarks, estimating that the blind boss was afraid that he would be alone and downtrodden in the future, sympathizing with him for a few moments, and then began to shift the topic of conversation to the young master Fan, who had just recently left the small city, and the people speculated what kind of position the count’s lord was going to assign him by letting his own illegitimate son come to the capital.

At this moment, Fan Xian was lying on a spacious carriage, which was in the middle of the procession, covered with bedding that he himself had prepared, very soft and gentle, and not feeling too many bumps. He naturally guessed the real reason why his father had allowed himself to enter the capital, so he invited the leader of this line of escorts, Fuji Zijing, to come in for a moment.

Fuji Zijing sat on the other side of the carriage with a sullen face, not knowing where to put his feet for fear of dirtying the snow-white bedding beside his feet, his heart was really a little uncomfortable, it seemed that this master was a loser as well, and was no better than the young masters of Kyoto.

Fan Xian comfortably stretched his back, squinted his eyes, looked at this middle-aged man who was obviously not bad in terms of strength, and asked, “Tou Da, this is already far away from Tanyu State, can you tell me what exactly is the reason for my father letting me enter the capital this time?”

Tou Zijing hesitated a bit, as if there were some words that were not easy to say.

Fan Xian smiled, his eyes clear and bright as he looked into his eyes and softly said, “You also know my origins, so it’s inevitable that you’ll be a little worried.”

Fuji Zijing squeezed out a small smile and respectfully replied, “Young master is overthinking it, the old master has taken young master to the capital this time, that is naturally to prepare young master for his future.”

Fan Xian waved his hand and shook his head, “It’s just the two of us in the car, so why hide anything.” He suddenly laughed, “If you won’t say anything, maybe I’ll jump out of the car and run away later.”

Fuji Zijing laughed, “Young master likes to joke.”

Before he could finish his sentence, Fan Xian had already coldly cut in, “Sometimes I don’t like to tell jokes.”

Fuji Zijing’s heart thumped, thinking, “Could it be that this person is saying something serious? If you really don’t want to enter the capital, which is something everyone can guess, then why didn’t you raise any objections in front of the old lady when you were in Tanyu City? He looked at the soft-faced young man in front of him and felt more and more that the other party was actually not simple.

Fan Xian naturally would not really run away, although he also knew that entering the capital was not expected to be too much of a good thing, but all these years of living as a rich and idle man had long since made him lose the courage to break into the world, and having to live in a deserted mountain and a broken temple to suffer was not in line with his character.

He came to this world to enjoy his happiness.

And he was willing to go to Kyoto to have a look, so when Sinanbo sent someone to pick himself up, he didn’t even think of objecting. But that didn’t mean that he would not be curious about what was hidden behind this matter.

After a long period of silence, Fuji Zijing finally became somewhat unable to endure the ice-like calmness of the carriage and opened his mouth to say, “Young Master, the reason why we have to rush to pick you up and return you to Kyoto this time is actually because Master has prepared a marriage for you.”

Fan Xian looked at him, and only after half a day did he speak, “A marriage?”
