Chapter 6 To Jinling

Rong Xia felt very wonderful, obviously she was still sleeping on the clay kang at home last night, but tonight she slept in the cramped cabin.

From Shangjing to Jinling, taking the waterway is undoubtedly the fastest.

The boat swayed very rhythmically with the river, although Rong Xia did not have the problem of seasickness, but at this time she couldn't sleep anyway In essence, she is a person who likes to live regularly in the same place, and some of the bed.

Rong Xia sat up, thought about it, or put on a dress and went to the ground, she opened the hatch and came to the aisle. They sat in a first-class position, so there was a fixed, not very large, small leather iron cylinder at the doorway, and there were several lumps of coal in the cylinder. This is convenient for guests to boil water, make tea and so on.

Rong Xia boiled a pot of water. After the water boiled, I used the tea bowl I brought to make hot tea.

Then, he took the hot tea and went to the cabin where the second young master was.

In fact, these jobs should be served by He An, but this guy is seasick, and now he doesn't know where to lie down to rest!

The lights were still on in the cabin, and Rong Xia thought to himself: The second young master is really studying hard. I knocked lightly on the hatch twice until I heard a sound come in. Rong Xia walked in cautiously. The first-class room still looks very comfortable, the floor is paved with fine mahogany boards, and the furniture around is also readily available, even bookshelves and desks, at this time, the second young master is sitting behind the desk, holding a pen in his hand, and is writing something. Rong Xia directly put the teacup on the left hand side of the second young master, but did not leave immediately, but looked at the handwriting on the paper curiously with covetous eyes.

That's a beautiful handwriting!

Rong Xia tilted his head, and many small stars instantly appeared in his eyes. It's better than the calligraphy and painting exhibitions she visited in the city!!

Pei Jinzhi raised his head and looked at the little girl with her head stretched out, her small mouth opened into an 'o-shape, her face was so good, what a look like a good expression.

"Do you read?" he said suddenly.

Rong Xia just wanted to nod, but soon shook his head again.

She went to elementary school, and then her family conditions were better, and she also went to night school for a while, so there must be no problem with ordinary writing and arithmetic. But the words here don't seem to be the same as theirs, at least for now, in addition to thinking that the black brush writing is really beautiful, as for the content, nine out of ten can't understand it.

"Heh, nodding and shaking his head, do you know it?"

After thinking about it, Rong Xia was still very ashamed and said, "I don't know." ā€

Illiterate or something, so red-faced.

"I don't know, but you still watch it so seriously?"

"You write beautifully!!"

Rong Xia nodded his head and said with a firm face. As if not flattering, but speaking a truth.

Pei Jinzhi looked at her serious little appearance, and suddenly felt that this little girl seemed to be quite interesting.

It's better not to disturb too much when people read at night.

Rong Xia very consciously pushed the teacup in his hand to Pei Jinzhi's side, and persuaded him very seriously: "It hurts to stay up late, the second young master should rest early!"

Pei Jinzhi laughed silently and waved his hand at her.

Rong Xia retreated.

Rong Xia patted his chest, feeling that his career as a maid should have a better start.

Five days later, the ship arrived at Jinling.

Jinling ――――――

There were already old men from the Pei family who came to greet the dock on the riverbank.

Rong Xia helped He An, who was sour in steps, followed behind Pei Jinzhi, and the group got into the carriage and went straight to the ancestral house.

The ancestral house of the Pei family is located in the east of the city, the innermost part of the Maoerjing Hutong, and the ancestral house is not as rich as the atmosphere of the Hou Mansion in the capital, but it is better than quiet and quiet. The person in charge of the ancestral house, surnamed Yu, is a very old man, he has been serving in front of Pei Jinzhi's grandfather since his generation, and now he has retired and retired in the ancestral house.

There are few people in the ancestral house, so Rong Xia was very lucky to get a good room.

The embroidered bed of the moon gate, the water-red mandarin duck embroidered quilt, the high soft pillows, the curtain that looks very elegant, the dresser with a copper mirror, the large cabinet made of pear blossom wood, as well as tables and chairs, washstands and other things, are very cute and warm, and it is where the daughter's family lives.

Rong Xia rolled around the bed a few times childishly, her little face was flushed, and she felt fresh and interesting to see everything.

After resting for the night, the next day, Rong Xia got up early.

He An told her that she didn't need to do any rough work, as long as she cooked well, the more delicious it was, the more delicious it was, so Rong Xia understood the nature of her work in her heart, and she was originally called a "cook"~~~

It was about the reason that he was already saying hello to the subordinates, and Rong Xia was able to use a large kitchen by himself.

She looked around and found that the ingredients were not only plentiful, but also very fresh.

Rong Xia washed rice and boiled porridge, and began to cook rice and cut vegetables.

Half an hour later, Rong Xia carried the food box to the front yard. When she arrived, the second young master was standing by the window, not knowing what to look at. There was a gust of wind blowing, and the hem of the second young master's clothes rattled, and Rong Xia looked at it and had a feeling, this person is good-looking, but it seems that he is too thin.

My brother said: It's not good for people to be too thin, it's not healthy.

Rong Xia looked around the room and didn't find He An, so he said directly: "Young master, it's time for breakfast!"

Pei Jinzhi turned around and gave a soft sigh.

The young master was eating, and the maid could only watch from the side.

Rong Xia carefully observed Pei Jinzhi, she didn't know much about the taste preferences of the service object, and Rong Xia didn't graduate from a chef school after all, so she didn't have much confidence in her craft.

Fortunately, Pei Jinzhi doesn't seem to be a too picky person, and a bowl of rice porridge is eaten cleanly.

Rong Xia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, however, it turned out that she was happy too soon......

Spit up.

Spit up.

Spit up.

I actually threw up.

Rong Xia watched Pei Jinzhi stand up very naturally, walked to the window, and began to vomit.

Suddenly there was a feeling that the whole world was dark, was it really unpalatable?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, young master...... I'm sorry" Rong Xia stood behind Pei Jinzhi at a loss, what should I do, the food I made by others vomited up, it was simply a secret cooking.

"Young master, I won't do it again, you ......" Before Rong Xia's words were finished, he was stopped by Pei Jinzhi shaking his hand.

He wiped the corners of his mouth with the handkerchief in his hand, and he didn't look very angry: "It's not your fault. He said, "It has nothing to do with you!" The young master is such a good person, he is so uncomfortable, and he is still comforting me.

Rong Xia's eyes were red, and he thought of it with great shame.

Pei Jinzhi glanced at her, didn't say anything, but rinsed his mouth with the water in the teacup, and then went back to the dining table. "Serve me another bowl. Pei Jinzhi said.

Where did Rong Xia dare to give him Sheng, shaking his little head vigorously.

In the end, Pei Jinzhi sank his face, Rong Xia shook his lips, and gave him a spoonful.

******

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ That's the way it is. When He An told Rong Xia that Pei Jinzhi was basically eating and vomiting, he shook his head and sighed and said: "Every time I see the young master eating, it seems like he is being tortured and questioned& The only thing I saw the young master show an expression of enjoying food was when he ate the grains he got from you last time." "Clamped on the fingertips, one by one, flicked up and eaten, just like an ordinary young man, the expression is lazy.

"And the leek egg cake last time, the young master thought it was very good when he ate it!" Rong Xia fell silent when he heard He An's words.

Whether it's roasted bud rice or leek cake, it's all produced in space.

"Young master, young master has stomach problems?" this is the only reason Rong Xia can come up with.

"After so many years of tossing, I have to have it if I don't have it!"

"It's okay, you don't have to be afraid. Seeing that Rong Xia didn't speak and looked thoughtful, He An hurriedly comforted: "Anyway, our young master should be used to it!"

Can you get used to this kind of thing?

Rong Xia didn't know why, and felt very sad.

Lunch and dinner, the second young master also ate it, and vomited again without accident.

Now, Rong Xia knows why he is so thin.

At night, Rong Xia tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep, thought about it, and finally entered the Lingjing space.

She snapped her fingers and counted the amount of food in the entire space, and she had some calculations in mind.

The next day, after she finished delivering breakfast, she said cautiously to Pei Jinzhi: I want to start a small vegetable patch in the yard.

"I—I'm very good at growing vegetables, and the leeks in the egg cake you ate last time were grown by myself. Rong Xia lowered his head, and his voice sounded a little empty.

Pei Jinzhi looked at her silently for a long time, and finally said lightly: "If you need anything, go to He An for help." ā€

******

Just do it, Rong Xia went around the entire ancestral house, and finally in a remote corner of the backyard, selected a place with relatively soft soil, which used to be planted with things like moon flowers, but now it is cheap Rong Xia, Rong Xia borrowed the plough from the housekeeper, and the housekeeper Yu was very polite, not only found the guy for her, but also found a little Si who did rough work to listen to Rong Xia's dispatch.

So after the morning had passed, a whole dozen vegetable fields were ploughed.

This kind of simple work is not possible for the dealer to designate, but Rong Xia just wants to plant some vegetables that can mature quickly, but these are enough, not to mention that she still has spiritual well water!

Rong Xia carefully sprinkled the seeds.

These seeds are preserved in the space, and the varieties have been improved from generation to generation, both in appearance and in number, they are very satisfying. Leeks, bok choy, lettuce, spinach, coriander, green onions...... Several seeds were scattered, and Rong Xia watered them one by one with the water from the spiritual well.

It wasn't until it was dark that he straightened up sweating profusely.
