After picking up a system

The lame servant's disability was brought from his mother's womb, so he would not feel uncomfortable because of the weather. When Ling Han came in with Bai Shiyan in his arms, he was still guarding the door. He wrapped himself tightly in a cotton jacket and stood in front of a small stove. He called Ling Han "Miss", and Ling Han nodded and went in.

It was the fifth day of the New Year, and the shops had been cleaned a day in advance. They were officially opened today. Ling Han walked around the streets and saw several shops that had written notes saying they were going to sell out.

Bai Shiyan disliked the cold weather, so she stayed in the teahouse to sleep, leaving only Chunya, Guard Guo and a steward with her.

The manor recruited a few more people. Ling Han felt sorry for the lame boy who was tired from guarding the gate, so he wanted to give him more opportunities to take turns. However, he was afraid that someone else would take over the job, so he worked even harder every day. After the boy collapsed from exhaustion after guarding the gate for three consecutive days, Ling Han learned the reason. So Ling Han divided the guards' duties among the recruited people, keeping the original two people guarding the gate and adding a replacement.

Ling Han asked Chunya to write down the address of the shop first, and after she had made her plan, she could contact the owner and become a buyer.

It was still New Year's Day, but the shop's business was worse than any other pork shop in the surrounding villages.

Opening the shop for one more day means one more day of consumption, but Ling Han thought that Bai Shiyan was not short of money anyway, so what if someone was in a hurry to have a demand during this period? Wouldn't that mean he would lose a customer? Bai Shiyan said that she always had a crooked reason, so Ling Han humbly asked for advice on what kind of thinking was normal. Bai Shiyan was unable to explain the reason, and Ling Han expressed real regret.

As the buds began to emerge, Ling Han had some new ideas. If she could consolidate her industry and connections, she could live freely in this world, but her status did not allow her to stay here for life.

She still had to control her identity when she went somewhere else, so she wanted to go out more, make more friends, and pave another path for herself.

As soon as this idea came out of his mouth, everyone fell silent again. They looked at each other as if they were hoping someone would be the first to take action. Ling Han also looked at them. She thought that if they agreed, everyone would be happy. If they disagreed, then what she said would only be a notice.

Bai Shiyan yawned. He had already accepted that he was a burden to Ling Han and there was nothing more to say.

Finally, the two maids made a decision. As long as the people in the capital didn't know, Ling Han could leave at will, but he had to come back before his fourteenth birthday. After all, Ling Han wanted to return to his family in the capital.

Ling Han naturally agreed, so at the beginning of the spring of that year, a carriage entered the manor and quietly left. Chun Ya left with Ling Han alone, bringing with her the whole manor's Qi Yi. Bai Shi Yan turned into a fox, and Ling Han lazily stroked his fur.

Ling Han drew a rough map for herself and circled a location. This was her first destination, Jiangnan.

They went with the escort agency. Before they left, Bai Shiyan's father came to him and asked him if he really wanted to follow a little girl around. Bai Shiyan was a little stunned by his father's obstruction, and finally nodded hesitantly. Bai Shiyan was patted on the shoulder meaningfully, and the whole fox fell asleep again.

Seven years old, he was not allowed to sit at the same table. The manor had vacated a room for him again, but he still often turned into a fox and ran into Ling Han's room. Nanny Song, who valued etiquette the most, would teach him a lesson every time she caught him, but those punishments were not painful to Bai Shiyan. He regarded Ling Han as a cub from the bottom of his heart. He was a fox who was more than 200 years older than Ling Han.

No one said anything when he accompanied him this time. The gap between their identities was too big. If there was anything, they must have been overthinking it.

Spring in the south of the Yangtze River slowly unfolded, forming a huge beautiful picture. Ling Han's waist ached from sitting in the carriage, so he planned to ride a horse. However, his thighs ached from riding, so he returned to the carriage in disappointment.

The swelling and redness faded slowly, so she would turn over the account book every day to divert her attention. Bai Shiyan was annoyed by her yelling. After leaving the carriage, he rode a horse and sent his tribesmen to find medicine, hoping that Ling Han would feel better.

After walking along the official road for several sections, they had to cross the river. The water was also cold in spring, so the group rented several boats to cross to the other side. The center of the river was much colder than the shore. Ling Han was dizzy from the rocking of the boat and had no interest in playing. Chun Ya was better than her, but she was also listless.

After resting for a while, the group continued their journey.

Jiangnan is a prosperous place with many merchants.

Ling Han followed the escort agency to the buyer's territory. The sturdy escort agency chief temporarily played the role of Ling Han's father whose wife had died. During the conversation, she timidly pulled the chief escort's clothes and looked around anxiously. The chief escort smiled apologetically and explained the reason in a bitter tone.

The buyer had also cooperated with the escort agency many times. He waved his hand and asked someone to speak in a gentle voice, handing the snacks to Ling Han.

Ling Han's eyes lit up, and he looked at the chief escort again. After the chief escort nodded, he reached out to take it: "Thank you, Mr.!"

The buyer touched her head and continued talking to the chief escort.

"How old is your daughter?"

"More than eight years old."

"In two years, you'll be a big girl."

"Yes."

……

After leaving the buyer's territory, the two of them still did not change their identities back. This was the identity Ling Han had arranged for himself from the beginning. The chief escort took her around the streets and explained some novel things to Ling Han.

Chunya was shocked by Ling Han's arrangement, but she didn't say anything. Every city had to check the identity of the other city, and the identity of the Ling family's concubine in the capital was not an identity that could be moved around freely. The same was true for the Ling family's maid, so she also changed her identity.

The lazy man Bai Shiyan curled himself up in the carriage and was sleeping soundly. Why in the carriage? Because he was the host and no one dared to hug him or wake him up, except Ling Han, of course.

Both of them are the most honorable people in the entire team. It’s okay for them to have any transgressions against each other, but they are not allowed to have such transgressions.

When Ling Han walked back to the inn from the busy streets, someone said that Bai Shiyan was still in the carriage. Ling Han nodded and did nothing else. Several people looked at each other, but they did not understand what Ling Han meant.

Not daring to speak again, he just waited on the side. Ling Han put down the things he bought from the street and turned around to see a few people who were still a little confused: "Anything else?"

"Mr. Bai..."

Ling Han: "Don't worry about it, just go out if you have nothing to do."

"Yes." Several people walked out of the room.

Ling Han yawned, washed his hands and sat down at the table. Chunya had already served the food.
