Chapter 560: Chapter 560: Torturing People
"The master also said to satisfy Miss Bai’s demands as much as possible, so if you say there’s no need, there’s no need—just send someone to tell us when you do have a request,"
"Alright, thank you, Sister Dian Hong," Bai Junjun nodded politely.
Dian Hong gave her a strange look and once again curtsied to the crowd before leaving.
It wasn’t until she left that Bai Sasa stepped forward and took Bai Junjun’s hand.
"Sister, the way you addressed Aunt Dian Hong just now was a bit inappropriate."
"?" Bai Junjun was puzzled.
"Given the difference in status between you and her, even though Aunt Dian Hong serves the Princess Consort and is not like an ordinary servant, you still should not call her ’sister’."
Watching Bai Sasa acting like a little adult, Bai Junjun couldn’t help but laugh and play along.
"Then what should I call her?"
"Aunt."
"?" Bai Junjun, confused: "Isn’t ’aunt’ even more excessive than ’sister’?"
Dian Hong was only a few years older than her, and calling her ’sister’ was already a stretch. To call her ’aunt’?
In this lifetime, she only ever had people calling her ’auntie’; who would dare to ask her to call someone else ’aunt’?
"Pfft." Li Wenli laughed out loud.
Bai Junjun turned her head back in confusion—everyone behind her was trying to hold back laughter, and even the usually stoic Ah Dao had a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Feeling awkward, she said, "Don’t laugh, I understand the reasoning. But calling her ’aunt’ would make Dian Hong seem too old. If it really comes to it... from now on I’ll call her ’little sister’. That should be okay, right?"
After all, asking her to call someone ’aunt’ was out of the question.
"..." the crowd.
’Little sister’... What kind of address is that?
"Pfft." Li Wenli laughed carelessly once again.
...
And so, the group prepared to set off amidst lively chatter.
The Dongsheng Tavern’s horse carriage was designed for both cargo and passengers, with racks on the top and bottom to hold a lot of goods, and space inside for people to sit.
When the carriage was overloaded, they could switch from a single horse to a pair.
This way, there was no concern about a single horse being unable to pull the load.
To avoid drawing attention, Li Wenli decided to keep just one horse for his cart.
After all, soon they would place the goods into the Space, rendering them weightless.
Finally, the time to depart arrived. Unlike them, who only had the Dongsheng Tavern’s workers to see them off, the entire town came to bid farewell to Wenren Pingting’s entourage.
Following behind Wenren Pingting’s group, they, too, enjoyed the treatment of being fiercely celebrated and escorted by rows of people.
Now, Ah Dao sat outside on the horse carriage, along with the Old Monk and Xiao Chan, while inside sat Li Wenli, Rabbit, Smiling Face, and the three siblings including Sister Junjun.
Their group packed the carriage full to the brim.
To make the journey enjoyable, Li Wenli even crafted a game of Ludo for them.
Ludo indeed became a new form of entertainment for everyone—occasionally even the stern-faced Ah Dao would join in to play a few rounds.
Whoever lost would have to go outside to drive the carriage; only the winner was allowed to sit inside.
The dignified Princess Consort’s entourage seemed to change its character because of the oddly-mismatched carriage following behind.
Wenren Pingting, reading a book at the forefront, would sometimes hear bouts of laughter from behind.
Each time, she couldn’t help but frown and ask Dian Hong.
"What is going on in the back?"
"Reporting to the master, Miss Bai and the others are playing a game of chess," Dian Hong replied.
"Playing chess?" Wenren Pingting showed a face that could not agree, wondering why playing chess would produce such undignified laughter, as if mocking the seriousness of a chessboard.
"The game they are playing is not Go, but a rather peculiar kind of chess, probably a pastime learned from peasants and villagers," Dian Hong surmised.
"Hmph," Wenren Pingting disdainfully picked up her book once more.
At mealtime, naturally, Wenren Pingting was the center of attention, dining amid a circle of stars.
