Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 51
In the afternoon, after lunch, Wen Shuyi made a good tidy up. First, he combed her hair back into the girl's usual bun at home, and then changed her clothes back into her usual clothes.

But before changing clothes, she hesitated for a moment, thinking about whether to wear the two sets of Han Chunluo dresses that she only wore when she was in school.

But after thinking about it, she went in as a maid this time to talk to Miss Lu. If she wore that dress, she would not be suitable for her status. After thinking about it, she should keep a low profile and wear an ordinary dress in order to choose one The goose yellow jacket is paired with a light blue hakama.

They are all styles that ordinary ladies often wear, but these two colors are matched together, full of vigor but not too eye-catching, just like sunflowers blooming in spring, fresh and natural.

Looking at the two sets of dresses in the closet that she hadn't worn for a long time, Wen Shu felt a little sad.

One year has passed so quickly, the days of being so peaceful and beautiful, and being able to learn things are gone. In fact, she really wants to continue her studies. After all, she has already seen the benefits of studying.

If her father hadn't insisted on sending her to a private school, she wouldn't be able to read, and then she wouldn't be able to read The Classic of Mountains and Seas. The dog with a human face" was frightened, and the box was destroyed and discarded.

Where did the opportunity come from now?
Just those thirty
Wen Shu sighed, it was less than two months before the start of spring school, and the two weeks to accompany Miss Lu to Cangzhou, thirty years of study, even if she wanted to earn money, it would be as difficult as climbing the sky.

However, it is not without opportunities, after all, she still has an iron box, and the world of mountains and seas is her opportunity, whether she can earn [-] coins in a short period of time depends on whether she can grasp it.

Although she has had bad luck the last few times, except for picking half a bag of peppercorns back three days ago, the rest of the time went to the top of the mountain where the birds don't shit, and was almost bitten by a strange snake once, but She still had hope in her heart.

And it also reminded her that she had to bring some realgar with her when she went in in the future. When it came to what to bring, Wen Shu regretted it too much!

Because just yesterday, because she didn't have an empty porcelain bottle with her, she missed the sap that could tame a horse!

That's the sap that can tame horses!
If she had successfully collected the sap yesterday, would she have been able to play a greater role in today's frightened horse, and even saved Mrs. Qin earlier, so that she would have been able to get a lot of rewards!

No, no, no more!Thinking about her again will make her heart ache!

In the swaying carriage, Wen Shu clutched his chest, his face wrinkled together.

No, things have to be on the bright side. According to the actions of Mr. Qin yesterday, even if she saved Mrs. Qin, she might not be rewarded. I didn't see that she didn't even have a thank you letter today, maybe she would even cause a commotion.

Thinking of this, she immediately felt a lot more at ease.

Just as she was thinking, the carriage stopped suddenly, and Lu Xi's voice came from outside: "Miss Wen, we're here."

Wen Shu raised the curtain and saw that the carriage was parked at the side door of the Hou Mansion.

She bent down and got out of the carriage, and was about to jump down, but suddenly realized that she was wearing a skirt today, and there were a lot of young men watching at the side door, it was a bit indecent to jump down like this, so she looked at Lu Xi in embarrassment .

Lu Xi suppressed a smile in his heart, but he kindly took a horse stool from the shaft of the car and placed it on the ground.

Wen Shu thanked her, and got out of the carriage in a proper manner.

Seeing her like this, Lu Xi felt in a daze for a moment, as if the woman in front of her was no longer the hot-tempered and informal lady Wen she knew in ordinary times, but instead looked like the daughter of an ordinary wealthy family.

"Guard Lu, can you go in?" Seeing him stunned, Wen Shu called out.

"Oh, yes." Lu Xi recovered from his stupefaction, asked the gatekeeper to lead the horse to the backyard, and brought Wen Shu in.

The house of the Marquis of Weiyuan occupies a very large area, and Wen Shu followed Lu Xi around for a while before arriving at the inner gate.After arriving here, as a man, Lu Xi could no longer go in. Fortunately, Miss Lu had sent her nanny to take care of her, so Lu Xi introduced her to that nanny Chen.

"This is the young lady Wen that the young master mentioned."

"Little lady, this is Nanny Chen, the nurse of the eldest girl."

"I've seen Nanny." Wen Shu slightly blessed her body.

With slender eyebrows and long eyes, Nanny Chen looked gentle, but what she said stabbed Wen Shu, "Hey, what a beautiful and delicate lady, it's wronged to be a girl with such looks."

Ya. Girl?

Wen Shu was stunned, turned to look at Lu Xi, and asked with his eyes, "What's the matter? Why did I become a girl? What did your son say?"

Lu Xi gave her a slightly hasty look, and said with a smile: "As long as the eldest girl likes it, it's fine, whether you feel wronged or not, the young master said, as long as she can make the girl happy, it will be a credit."

"That's true. I think this girl looks smart. I think she will be satisfied."

The two talked again, and Lu Xi left, and Nanny Chen led Wen Shu to Miss Lu's Wenjingyuan.

Along the way, Wen Shu was thinking about what exactly Lu Shaoqing told his sister, why this nanny Chen talked about every girl, and Lu Xi didn't refute.

But before she could figure it out, Wen Jingyuan arrived.

Wen Shu has always had a good sense of direction. Although she was thinking about things all the way, it did not prevent her from perceiving the direction.The inner door of this Wenjingyuan should be in the direction of the west, and the courtyard is not too big. The main room and the side hall add up to seven or eight rooms in total.

There are two plum trees planted in the southwest corner of the courtyard. At this time, red plums are blooming on the branches. Two maids in green bijia are picking flowers with small baskets. Let's go to the study, let the mother directly lead the little lady there."

Nanny Chen nodded and said to Wenshu, "Miss Wen, please follow me."

Well, why is my son being more polite now, and didn't he just yell at each girl?Wen Shu was a little confused.

The thick curtain was lifted, a wave of heat gushed out, a charcoal basin was burned in the room, and it was warm. Lu Xingwan was reclining on the soft couch reading a book, and when he saw them coming in, he sat up straight , looked Wen Shu up and down curiously.

The elder brother said that the court is busy this year, and there is no time to accompany her to Cangzhou, so he specially found a girl who knows how to fight and kick from outside to serve her personally, who can not only protect her but also talk to her about the things outside, so as to relieve boredom.

Although the little lady in front of her was dressed plainly, she looked very neat. Although the clothes were old, they were well washed, and she had a warm smile on her face, making people feel close to her just by looking at her.

While she was looking at Wen Shu, Wen Shu was also looking at her. Miss Lu in front of her was sixteen or seventeen years old, about the same age as her, but she was thin, with a thin face, a small face the size of a palm, pale She didn't have the slightest blush, and she felt pale as paper against the backdrop of the two maids beside her whose cheeks were flushed by the charcoal fire.

This big girl is afraid that she is not in good health!

With just one glance, Wen Shu came to a conclusion.
