The breakfast shop under the system board did not open immediately, but was surrounded for decoration.

The people passing by took a look at it and left the idea of ​​"this store is being reorganized and will open soon", and the neighbors around would chat casually from time to time, guessing what kind of store it might be selling.

After the test, students left Beijing one after another, most of them were not confident about being on the list.

Of course, most of the students still choose to stay and wait for the day when the results are released to check their results.

Everyone in the Shen family didn't ask too much. Cheng Xi and the little girl had full confidence in Shen Xingluo. They never thought that their relatives would fail the rankings. As for Mr. Xu, he was even more powerful.

"Why do you care about this? That kid has a stomach full of bad water, and he can live anywhere."

The old man hit Cheng Xi on the head with a book rolled into a shaft, "Man, don't be too strong, you can't hold back now, it might be a good thing for you if you really fail."

"." Please don't do such a good thing.

Also, why did she suppress her husband? Which ancient truth is this?

Cheng Xi was completely defeated by his master's brain circuit, "Since you all think he is a scourge, instead of scouring others, let him scourge court officials."

Xu Lao laughed, "It's such a reason!"

A black head suddenly appeared on the top of the east wall, and Qin Zheng stepped on something, and was waving it excitedly.

"Are you free, little sister-in-law? I'll take you out to play and introduce some girls from relatives to you!"

Elder Xu waved his hands impatiently, "Go, go, don't talk to me here, and delay my time."

Cheng Xi put down the herbs with a chuckle, clapped his hands and got up.

"Just take me?"

"Of course not, Xing Luo is fine, let's go together!"

Since he wanted to introduce the little sister to her, of course she couldn't be the only one, so Cheng Xi dragged Shen Xingqi along without thinking, and the family of three plus Qin Zheng soon appeared in the teahouse box.

Pushing open the door, Cheng Xi's eyes were almost blinded by the handsome men and women in the room.

"Come on, let me introduce you."

Qin Zheng took the lead, and since several people in the restaurant knew who he was going to bring, he simply introduced the two women in the box first.

The woman in the orange dress is Qu Shaoya, the second lady of the Marquis of Wu'an, and the woman in the sky blue dress is Qin Shiyun, the first daughter of Qin's family. Besides, beside Qu Shaojing, there is a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman, It is Jiang Yuyao, the granddaughter of Mr. Jiang.

Cheng Xi had seen the relevant news compiled by Su Zhan, and after learning that the Marquis of Wu'an and the Jiang's House were about to marry, he understood the relationship between the two.

Qu Shaojing shed his usual idleness, and bowed respectfully to several people:
"A few days ago, I thank Mrs. Shen for saving me. Since the person behind it has not been found out, it is inconvenient to come to thank you. I hope Brother Shen and Mrs. Shen will forgive me."

"You don't need to say thank you for your effort."

Shen Xingluo glanced at Qin Zheng and knew exactly what was going on today, "Young Lord, I take care of the safety of everyone in the Shen family, so I understand clearly."

"Brother Shen is indeed a cheerful person."

Qu Shaojing opened the folding fan with a bang, and pulled Shen Xingluo to the side to chat, and the girls naturally got together.

"We were all terrified when my elder brother was taken back to the mansion by the servants that day, but luckily Mrs. Shen came to the rescue."

Qu Shaoya sat next to Cheng Xi, her delicate face was full of curiosity, "I heard from my father that practicing martial arts takes a long time to accumulate, and Mrs. Shen is a master at such a young age, that's amazing!"

"You can't talk about masters, you can protect yourself."

"It must be much better than him to save my brother. Mrs. Shen is too modest."

Qu Shaoya's small expression of "I know you're great, so don't deny it", made Shen Xingqi laugh, especially her pair of starry eyes of anticipation, which just properly exuded "Hurry up and talk about the future of martial arts!" thing" means.

"Sister-in-law's father was born in Jianghu, and now he is a bodyguard of Hongwei Escort Bureau. It is not surprising that sister-in-law has practiced martial arts since she was a child."

"Wow--"

The escort girls and the like didn't pay attention, they were completely attracted by the words "Born in Jianghu" in front of them, and they already believed in their hearts that the Cheng family's father was a master of Jianghu with an extraordinary background.

It's no wonder they think so, although Qu Shaojing doesn't know much on weekdays, but his family has a long history, Marquis Wu'an was awarded the title for his solid military achievements, and he is in charge of Dayan's 10 cavalry. As the direct son of Marquis Wu'an, he has practiced martial arts since childhood. Skills are still very high in the capital.

A person like him can be besieged and injured by a dozen killers, but Cheng Xi can beat them all to the ground, which shows how powerful she is.

The girl looked at Cheng Xi in awe, and then shifted her gaze to the commoner scholar who was playing chess next to her, her expression suddenly became more subtle.

Although the Shen family's husband and wife are very good-looking, but with such a high force value, is life really happy for the wife?
Moreover, Mrs. Shen is not just powerful, she is intelligent just because of her free-spirited and casual eyes, and her temperament is even more dusty, she is simply perfect.

It is impossible to pick out such outstanding ones in the capital.

The eyes of the few people were so obvious that even Shen Xingqi could see what they were thinking, and there was a little smile in their dark eyes.

Jiang Yuyao coughed lightly, then looked at Shen Xingqi with a gentle smile:
"What does sister Shen do on weekdays?"

"Reading books, embroidering purses, cooking, learning martial arts from my sister-in-law."

"."

Wait, we can understand the first two, and the third, but what the hell is the last one?

The three girls were dumbfounded again.

"Sister Shen also knows martial arts?"

"I have learned a few tricks and can protect myself."

The little girl was a little embarrassed, after all, she could only beat Wang Shu in the entire Shen family.Oh no, my sister-in-law said she could still beat Mr. Xu.But Mr. Xu is an elder, you can't hit him, absolutely not.

Calculated in this way, her force value is really not very good.

However, these words had a different meaning in the ears of the three girls.

Mrs. Shen seemed to have mentioned the word "self-protection" just now. Could it be that this delicate little girl is also a master?
As soon as this idea came up in their hearts, the three of them pressed down the idea abruptly.

Impossible, definitely impossible, don't think about it.

How old is this girl, she looks younger than them, even if she learns kung fu from Mrs. Shen, she won't become a master so quickly, at most she can only show her fists and legs.

Well, yes, that's it!

Thinking of this, the girls suddenly felt at ease.

They are girls who have seen the big world in the capital, how could they scare themselves?

Too unfocused.

Jiang Yuyao obviously thought so too, her eyes fell on the embroidered handkerchief in Shen Xingqi's hand and she smiled gently, "Is this the handkerchief embroidered by sister Shen herself?"

"Yeah, I saw the peach blossoms blooming just right a few days ago, so I embroidered them."

The little girl slowed down from her initial restraint, and she liked Jiang Yuyao's submissive temperament very much. After a while, she started chatting with the embroidered pictures, and Qu Shaoya and Qin Nan also participated in it.

Cheng Xi watched from one side, added a few words from time to time, and spent some time trying to figure out the characters of the few people.

Qu Shaoya was born in the Marquis of Wu'an, she can be said to be the representative of noble girls in Beijing, her lively and naive temperament is very pleasing, and the corners of her eyes also curl up when she smiles.

Jiang Yuyao is a well-known lady, born in a scholarly family, with a gentle and virtuous personality, and her every move reveals a bit of a book.

Qin Nan's temperament is somewhat similar to that of his elder brother Qin Feng. At the beginning, he doesn't seem to have a strong sense of presence, but he can get to the point every time he doesn't talk much, which is enough to show that his emotional intelligence is high, which is completely different from Qin Zheng.

The little girls always had something to talk about. Shen Xingqi had read a lot of books and was good at embroidery, so they exchanged baby names very quickly.

Cheng Xi next to him also listened with great interest, after all, not everyone can witness the beauty of a famous ancient family with their own eyes.

After thousands of years of distance, the few people talked surprisingly harmoniously.

Shen Xingluo who was by the window inadvertently caught the smile in the corners of her eyes, and unconsciously pulled the corners of her mouth.

"Brother Shen, are you sure about this trial?"

"Do your best and obey the destiny."

Qu Shaojing was amazed, obviously two years younger than him, how could he look more stable than his old father?

This couple is simply not human.

No wonder it will come together!
The examination is over, and the prosperity of central Beijing remains the same.

Since the results of this general examination will be announced on the list in mid-September, the remaining students are relieved, and those who are confident in the list have already started preparing for the future palace examination.

The atmosphere in the second courtyard belonging to the Shen family was relaxed, without any sense of tension.

As Cheng Xi wrapped the meat stuffing into the dough one by one, more than a dozen cages of steamed buns were stacked neatly on top of each other and put on the pot. Shen Xun, who was in charge of "studying", stayed close by.

Wang Shu pushed the door open and entered, "Madam, the bamboo strip maker outside the city has brought the steamer."

"I gonna go see."

Cheng Xi washed his hands and walked out of the kitchen. He walked straight through the backyard, and saw a young man pushing a small cart at the door, with many small steamers densely packed on it.

"Madam Shen, this is the steamer you asked for, let's see if it fits?"

The little bamboo craftsman met Cheng Xi at the market the day before yesterday. He was selling the small baskets he had woven at the stall. Unexpectedly, the other party ordered fifty small steamers after seeing them.

What is surprising is that each steamer is required to be the same size, and the appearance is only a circle larger than a palm. No matter how hard he imagines, he has no idea what this thing is for.

"Madam, are you sure this is a steamer?"

"It's something you made yourself, what is it if it's not a steamer?"

"But it's so small that it can only hold a steamed bun."

"The steamed buns in the north are indeed a bit big."

Cheng Xi nodded in agreement, "But I use it to steam buns."

steamed stuffed bun?

The little bamboo craftsman was even more puzzled. The buns are usually as big as steamed buns. Could it be possible to put only one in a cage?
too weird.

"Well done, it fits well."

Cheng Xi picked up a few and looked at them repeatedly, very satisfied, "How much money are these?"

"A steamer costs 2 Wen, a total of [-] Wen."

Wang Shu at his side took out a bunch of copper plates and handed them over. He was so happy that the little bamboo craftsman could not see his teeth, and he pushed the cart away happily, regardless of the unresolved doubts in his heart.

"Everything is ready, this breakfast shop will open tomorrow."
