Chapter 6 It turned out to be a foodie!
Shi Yuan returned to the room, the oil lamp in the room was still very dim...... "I have to find a way to brighten the lamp." Shi Yuan muttered quietly, then turned off the lights and went to bed.
The next morning, as soon as the rooster crowed, Shi Yuan had already gotten up. This is not because of how diligent Shi Yuan is, but because Shi Yuan has really no place for entertainment since he was in this world, and if he goes to bed early at night, he will naturally get up early in the morning.
When Shi Yuan opened the door, Xiao Lei was already waiting outside the door. The early spring morning was still slightly cold, and the boy's face was red from the cold.
"Shi Gongzi, you're up, the little one will prepare water for you to freshen up." Seeing Shi Yuan who opened the door, the young man asked.
"Xiao Lei, I'll discuss something with you." Shi Yuan said while sorting out the cumbersome clothes on his body.
"Childe, if you have anything to say, why do you need to discuss it with Xiao."
"Don't call me Gongzi in the future, there will be a long time in the future, and I can't get used to hearing this title...... Besides, I'm not the son of this Lin Mansion, so call me Brother Shi! Also, you don't have to wait for my future life, I can do these things myself. Shi Yuan has always been a little uncomfortable with letting others serve him...... With a person around him all the time, Shi Yuan always felt weird, although he had said Xiao Lei a few times, but it had no effect, but this time he was hard-hearted.
"Childe, how does this make ......"
"Xiao Lei, you don't have to say more, just do as I say, I will go and say it to Lin Lao, if there is anything I need your help in the future, I will call you."
Xiao Lei wanted to say more, but when he saw Shi Yuan staring at him with wide eyes, he lowered his head and replied, "Yes...... Shi Gong ...... Brother Shi. ”
"That's right, you go back to your room and go to sleep again, just freshen up and I'll do it myself." Shi Yuan said, but without waiting for Xiao Lei to reply, he pushed him to the backyard...... Xiao Lei saw that he couldn't resist Shi Yuan, so he had to get up and walk to his room.
sent Xiao Lei away, Shi Yuan brought water, and after freshening up, he started broadcasting gymnastics in the yard......
When I used to go to school, Shi Yuan was very disgusted with doing radio gymnastics in the morning. Now that he has crossed into this world, there is no need to rush to freshen up and go to work, Shi Yuan remembered this radio gymnastics again for a while...... After exercising in the courtyard for a long time, Shi Yuan couldn't help but feel a little hungry.
During the time I spent in the Lin Mansion, the meals were all delivered by Xiao Lei. Now let Xiao Lei go to the room to rest, and now it's time to do it yourself...... It's just that he doesn't know where to eat. If he called Xiao Lei again, Shi Yuan would naturally be a little embarrassed. "Let's look for it first." Thinking so, Shi Yuan walked out of the courtyard.
The Lin family is worthy of being a big family in Jinling, and although it is not the first time that Shi Yuan has walked in this courtyard, he is still a little confused. Although Shi Yuan's courtyard is in the backyard, it is only in the middle of the Lin Mansion, and his courtyard is not big, but it is not small, and there are many large and small attics around. So Shi Yuan has been here for so long, and he still doesn't know the layout of this Lin Mansion very well, but according to Shi Yuan's experience, this kitchen is probably in the backyard of Lin Mansion...... So he headed for the backyard.
Shi Yuan walked all the way, but the people of the Lin Mansion had already gotten up, and along the way, Shi Yuan looked at the maids of Yingying Yanyan talking and laughing, and his mood couldn't help but become brisk.
"This sister, do you know how to get to the kitchen?"
"This little sister, you are so good-looking...... Excuse me......"
"And this sister, how did you make this hair?"
……
Shi Yuan laughed at the maids on the road while walking, those maids saw that Shi Yuan was so shameless, but they knew that he was brought back by Old Lady Lin, but they didn't have a problem with him, so they had to run away with red faces.
"What are you running...... My brother Shi can't eat people. Shi Yuan looked at the maids who ran away and shouted.
"Hey, this sister, your clothes are so beautiful......"
"Shameless!" Shi Yuan saw that someone didn't run away, and scolded himself, so he looked up, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he saw it...... The woman in front of him was the same person he met in the backyard last night - Lin Yingyue!
It was dark last night, and Shi Yuan didn't see Lin Yingyue's appearance very clearly. Looking at it now, I saw the woman in front of me: she was wearing the peach-colored brocade dress she wore last night, and when the breeze came, she saw wide sleeves fluttering; The green silk hangs down the shoulders, the hosta is obliquely inserted, the face is like a peach blossom, and the eyebrows are like willow leaves...... Under the slender eyelashes, a pair of eyes like pearls were staring at Shi Yuan fiercely at this time...... And behind her, two delicate-looking little maids were also pursing their lips, looking at Shi Yuan gloatingly.
"It turned out to be Miss Yingyue...... Shi lost his mind for a while, and almost didn't recognize the girl, and hoped that the girl would forgive him. Shi Yuan put away his face and replied seriously.
"Really? Isn't it nice that you just molested those maids? Why don't you continue? ”
"I want to tease you...... I'm just afraid you won't let ......," Shi Yuan muttered quietly.
"What do you say? You disciple......"
As soon as Shi Yuan saw that Lin Yingyue was angry, he hurriedly changed his words and said, "I didn't say anything...... I just want to ask Miss Yingyue, where is this Lin Mansion kitchen? ”
"What are you doing in the kitchen? Didn't grandpa let Xiao Lei take care of your daily life? Lin Yingyue heard that Shi Yuan was looking for a kitchen, so she asked suspiciously.
"That...... I'm not your Lin family's son-in-law, I don't need to be served, as the so-called - do it yourself, have enough food and clothing! As for Xiao Lei...... I told him to trim the flowers and plants in the yard. ”
"You still know that you don't have the surname Lin! I see that you are relying on your grandfather's identity, and you are very majestic to tease those girls along the way! Lin Yingyue sneered at Shi Yuan, and then continued: "It's just that...... I didn't expect you to be quite diligent when you arrived, so you don't have to go to the kitchen, don't let people think that our Lin family is not considerate, yesterday I brought back some pastries from Yangzhou, I will let Qingshuang bring you some over. ”
"How embarrassing is that...... I didn't expect Miss Yingyue to care so much about me! Shi Yuan turned a deaf ear to Lin Yingyue's ridicule, and replied with a smile.
"What cares about you! Don't get me wrong, I'm afraid that the pastry will spoil, so I brought it to you...... If you don't want it, forget it! Lin Yingyue was very helpless about Shi Yuan's personality of kicking his nose and face.
"Yes! Absolutely! Isn't it a waste if the pastry is spoiled? Shi Yuan still smiled and replied.
"In that case, then you will go back with me, don't hang around here anymore, lest people say that our Lin family is not right!" After Lin Yingyue finished speaking, she turned around and walked away, and the two maids behind her also hurriedly chased after her.
"This woman...... Why is this like this, just go......" Shi Yuan muttered quietly, and also chased after him, following the two maids.
"Two beauties, does your young lady also live in my courtyard?" Shi Yuan asked the two little girls in a low voice.
When the two little girls heard Shi Yuan's words, they couldn't help but turn red, but they heard one of the maids reply in a low voice: "My young lady's boudoir is in the bamboo courtyard next to the courtyard where the son is, and it is not very far from the child's residence......"
"Oh, I see...... Why did your young lady get up so early? ”
The little girl who had just answered him was about to answer, but the younger maid beside her muttered in a low voice: "Sneaky inquirer, I don't know what the attempt is!" ”
"Qinglu, don't be rude! Shi Gongzi is the old lady's guest! After she finished speaking softly, she replied to Shi Yuan: "Miss just came back from Yangzhou yesterday, and she got up this morning to discuss things with the shopkeepers in various stores." ”
"Oh, I see, it seems that your young lady is quite busy!" Shi Yuan smiled at Qinglu, who was grimacing at him, and then asked.
"Not really! The Lin family's business has to be handled by the young lady, and the young lady has no meal now......
"Qingshuang, what are you muttering? Come back with me to get the pastries! Qingshuang was talking to Shi Yuan, but was interrupted by Lin Yingyue, who had already walked to the gate of the bamboo courtyard in front.
Qingshuang stuck out his tongue at Shi Yuan when he heard the sound, and then followed Lin Yingyue towards the "bamboo courtyard".
The bamboo courtyard is adjacent to the courtyard where he is, but the bamboo courtyard looks much larger...... "This bamboo courtyard is afraid that it is Lin Yingyue's single courtyard, and it looks unique here!" Shi Yuan secretly guessed as he walked back to the courtyard where he was.
Soon after Shi Yuan returned to the courtyard, Qingshuang brought pastries.
Originally, I wanted to go to cook by myself, but after sparing a circle, I still let someone else send it...... Taking the box of pastries in Qingshuang's hand, Shi Yuan hurriedly said, "Trouble Qingshuang girl ran away." ”
"Shi Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, this is what I should do...... In addition to the pastries, the young lady also brought a pot of this year's new tea. ”
"Lin Yingyue's girl is very caring...... There was no hot water in my room. Shi Yuan thought secretly, so he took the teapot in Qingshuang's hand, but saw that the mouth of the pot was bubbling white, thinking that it should have been brewed just now...... "Youlao Qingshuang girl ran away, and the tea made by the girl herself is afraid that it will taste very good."
Qingshuang heard Shi Yuan's words, but shook her head slightly and said, "Shi Gongzi said that he laughed, this pot of tea was brewed by my young lady...... and the pastry, Miss has never given it to anyone except Mrs. Lin...... It seems that Miss Shi Gongzi is very important! After Qingshuang finished speaking, she didn't stop, and said goodbye to Shi Yuan and left.
Shi Yuan didn't take it to heart when he heard this, he happened to see the chick crying last night, I'm afraid these benefits are the "hush money" that the chick gave herself...... Thinking like this, Shi Yuan turned around and went back to the room to eat pastries.
The pastry was indeed delicious, and with the freshly brewed tea, it immediately made people feel refreshed. "Mo Feilin Yingyue, that chick is a foodie? How else would you have brought these pastries back from Yangzhou? Shi Yuan thought secretly while eating the pastry.
"Shi Gongzi...... Is Shi Gongzi here? ”
Just as Shi Yuan was slowly tasting the pastry, there was a call outside the courtyard.
"Steward Wang, do you have anything to do with me?" Shi Yuan opened the door, but saw that the person who called him just now was actually the housekeeper Wang who he met at the door when he came back yesterday.
Steward Wang caught a glimpse of the pastry in Shi Yuan's hand and asked, "Where did Childe get this Yangzhou flower cake?" ”
"I didn't expect this old boy to be a foodie...... Shi Yuan thought in his heart, and prevaricated: "Oh...... This pastry was given by a friend I met yesterday? Does Steward Wang want to eat some? ”
After Shi Yuan finished speaking, he saw that the steward Wang scratched his head embarrassedly. Shi Yuan smiled slightly, then found a piece of cloth and gave the box of pastries to Steward Wang.
"I wonder what Steward Wang is looking for me?" Shi Yuan handed the pastry to Steward Wang and asked.
Steward Wang took the pastry, and when he heard Shi Yuan's words, he quickly patted his head and said, "I almost forgot about business!" It was the master who asked me to invite Shi Gongzi to the hall. ”
