Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 435
After breakfast, Wen Shu tidied up a bit and went to the Qin residence with a basket.

When Mrs. Wang heard her coming to visit, she didn't even bother to eat breakfast, so she went to the door to greet her.

Seeing that she was still so earnest, Wen Shu didn't know what to say.

She has never been a mother before, so she can't understand the feelings of being a mother. She has no resentment, hatred or love for the Wang family, and she just treats it as a noble lady who has had a relationship.

However, since there is such an origin, we should come to say goodbye when we part.

"Is Master Xiang at home?" Wen Shu asked.

"Yes, today is Xiu Mu, I will send someone to call him." Wang said happily.

Wen Shu didn't stop her, and let the Wang family send someone to call Qin Pei, while he followed her into the flower hall in the front hall.

Mrs. Wang poured her tea with her own hands, and then asked, "Haven't you had breakfast yet, I'll ask someone to prepare it."

"No need, ma'am, I've eaten." Wen Shu stopped her.

Hearing her address, Wang's heart felt sad, and he smiled again: "What are you doing here today?"

Only then did Wen Shu show a smiling face, and replied: "It's nothing serious, I just came to thank Mr. Xiang and his wife for saving my father's life."

She was talking about Qin Pei's contribution this time.But Wang thought she was thanking the past, and said with a wry smile: "Time and fate! Between us and your father, we don't know who should thank whom."

At that time, the Prime Minister was upright and spared Li Shi's life. He was originally a kindness to Li Shi, but he didn't want to be hated by the rich businessman and pay for revenge, so that he could not have children.

In desperation, she chooses to exchange Wen Shu and Yang Er, but accidentally leaves Wen Shu out.In the end, by mistake, Li Shi picked her up and brought her up to this day.

Sometimes I think about it, if Xiangye hadn't insisted on changing Li Shi's sentence back then, would everything have been different!

Mr. Xiang will not be hurt by grudges, so she doesn't have to do such a "stupid" thing as changing the child, and Wen Shu will always stay by her side.

Hearing what she said, Wen Shu realized that what she was talking about was back then, and he didn't know how to answer the words for a while.

Fortunately, Qin Pei appeared in time and rescued her.

"It's a rare visitor to take the initiative to come to the door today." He strode into the front hall with a teasing tone.

Wen Shu faced him with a thicker skin, smiled awkwardly and said, "Thanks to Master Xiang's help, my father was able to get out of the cage. Today, I specially bring a gift to thank you."

Qin Pei glanced at the basket she brought, sat down calmly at the main seat, and said with a smile, "What gift, let me have a look."

"My family is poor and I can't afford expensive gifts, so I can only give two fruits as a token of my affection." Wen Shu opened the basket with a wicked sense of humor, revealing two huge durians.

Durian has a smell, just now she covered it with a cloth towel, the smell is relatively mild, plus it's summer, others just think it's the smell of sweat, even if they don't like it, they can't say anything.

But now when the cloth towel was lifted abruptly, the strong smell rushed to his face, the smile on Qin Pei's face froze involuntarily, and his brows frowned immediately.

"Little lady really came to thank me?" I'm afraid she didn't come to disgust me.

Just know that things are not that simple.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over: "What kind of black-hearted shop is this, selling you such bad fruits, just tell me the name of the shop, and I will definitely make him unable to stay in Tokyo."

Wen Shu put the basket on the table next to him with a smile, and was about to speak when Qin Jingyang came in from the outside, covering his nose as soon as he entered the door and yelling: "What smell, it smells so good!"

He stepped in and looked around, and when he saw two big thorn balls in the basket, he couldn't help being startled, and asked Wang: "Mother, where did these things come from?"

Looking at Wen Shu, Wang couldn't understand why the child bought spoiled fruit and gave them to them.

As for being deceived by others, this fruit has such a strong "taste", but anyone with a normal brain knows that this fruit is not right.

Is it still "dissatisfied" with them?

"It was brought by my sister." Seeing that Wang had been looking at Wen Shu, Qin Jingyang understood, and immediately asked Wen Shu enthusiastically, "Where did my sister buy it? I heard that this fruit is a rare item."

Who is your sister, Wen Shuxin rolled her eyes and ignored it.

This person is too familiar.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Qin Jingyang didn't give up, and continued: "Last time I said I wanted to give my sister a gift, and my sister can think about it when she goes back. Do I want rouge, gouache, or jewelry? My brother will buy it for you."

In order to stop his nagging, Wen Shu chose to answer the first question: "I bought it at a stall. I heard from the stall owner that eating it is good for your health."

Hearing this, Wang's heart felt a lot, thinking that the child's heart is good, but he was deceived.

Qin Jingyang didn't believe it: "Didn't the Dashi Kingdom businessman say he only brought two of them, and I didn't buy them even if I wanted to, and the people from the Duke of Qi's mansion snatched them all away."

"That's unlucky, the stall owner I met had a lot of them on the stall." Wen Shu didn't change his face.

If you can't buy it, it doesn't mean I can't buy it.

Qin Jingyang didn't insist on asking for a result, so he didn't ask any further. He went straight to the table, looked at the two durians and said, "Then you spent a lot of money buying these two fruits."

"No, I have a lot of money, one month's food rations." Wen Shu nodded his head.

See how genuine my gratitude is.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang was so moved, she looked at Qin Pei and said, "Then let's open it and try it?"

Qin Pei was noncommittal. Seeing this, Qin Jingyang was the first to call for someone to get the knife, and then opened the durian with his own hands.

As the golden flesh is exposed, the fresher "stink" also floats out.

Qin Pei couldn't stand it anymore, he stood up and said, "Taste it, I'll go out for a walk." After finishing speaking, he was already outside the hall.

"The color of the flesh looks pretty good, I'll try it." Afraid of embarrassing Wenshu, Wang hurriedly took a piece and tasted it.

Although she tried her best to be peaceful and affectionate, Wen Shu could still see her dislike for durians from her micro-expression.

Wang took a sip and said with a forced smile, "It's not bad, the flesh is soft and the taste is sweet."

Wen Shu herself doesn't like the taste of durian, so she knows how much courage it takes to taste the fruit with this taste.

Mrs. Wang did this to make her step down easily.

Qin Jingyang, on the other hand, seemed to like this durian very much, after tasting it, he praised it again and again, and ate up a durian petal in a short while, which did not look like a show.

Just when Mrs. Wang was in a dilemma with the remaining durian, and was thinking about whether to take another bite, Wen Shu spoke.

"As long as the yamen like it, it's getting late, so my daughter will leave first."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang hurriedly put down the durian as if she had been pardoned, took the cloth towel from the waitress, wiped her hands and said, "I'll see you off."

This time Wen Shu didn't refuse, nodded lightly, and went out of the hall first.

In the yard, Qin Pei never left. Seeing them coming out, he took out a book from his sleeve and handed it to Wen Shu: "Here, read more if you have nothing to do."

Wen Shu glanced at the cover, only to see the word "essay" written on it, but the author was not marked.

Seeing that she was not moving, Qin Pei directly stuffed the book into her hand, and seemed to explain: "It's a good thing to love reading, so let's reciprocate the courtesy."

"Thank you, Mr. Xiang, then I will be disrespectful."
