Chapter 8 The Wicked Scheming Begins with Fragrance

At this time, it was midsummer, the cicadas were singing all the way, the sun was getting hotter and hotter, Lin Mei held a small silk umbrella, and held a delicate food box in her right hand, which she borrowed from Liu Yufei, and finally entered the inn with a swing, but she didn't faint halfway.

After Lin Mei waited at the inn for a while, Shu Wangjin rushed back, and as soon as she entered the door of the inn, she found that Lin Mei was sitting alone in the middle, her head was little by little, and she was almost about to fall asleep.

"Miss Lin?"

Lin Mei suddenly woke up and muttered, "You're back...... she chatted with Liu Yufei for a while in the morning, and originally wanted to have lunch at her place, but she didn't want the embroidery girl to be so fierce, so she immediately scolded her, if it weren't for Liu Yufei's face, she would have scolded the embroidery girl a long time ago.

At this time, Yufei also said that to capture a man's heart, she must first grasp a man's stomach, so she borrowed a food box from Liu Yufei and prepared to go home to think about her cooking skills, but she didn't know what she was good at when she was half-paid on the stove.

In the end, Lin Mei had no choice but to clean up a water melon and make a soup, serve it in a small soup cup, and then beat a few eggs to scrambled a green onion omelette, neatly placed it in a white porcelain plate, and then steamed some white rice, and when she packed it up and put it in the food box, it was nearly an hour.

"Shu Wangjin, have you had lunch?" Yufei's family is talking about breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so it should be right? …… Oops, for a while, he was so quick that he called his name directly!

Lin Mei suddenly regretted not being at the beginning, and hurriedly straightened her waist and sat on the wooden bench with a dignified face, with a look on her face that did not show a trace of scarcity, as if the "Shu Wangjin" just now was not what she shouted.

Shu Wangjin shook his head helplessly, if this is the price of his daughter-in-law, then he can only admit it, who called Lin Mei an important person in charge of his marriage?

"Under ...... Haven't had lunch yet. ”

"That's great!" Lin Mei immediately broke the skill, pushed the fine food box on the table in front of him, and said happily, "Eat it quickly, this time I really made it myself." She obviously remembered the last time she had a crushed cake, but this time it was really her own hand.

Shu Wangjin smiled lightly, and put the food box in his hand, as gentle as jade, "Go to the upstairs room and talk about it." ”

"Okay, I'll recite a poem to you!" Lin Mei followed behind him, silently reciting the song "Tanabata in the Hanzhuang Gate Boat" that Liu Yufei taught her yesterday, for fear that she would forget it later.

Shu Wangjin booked the room is the best view of the whole inn, so even if it is not a Tianzi room, the price is only high, open the window to look down, is the Qingshui River is surrounded by the blue and blue, the river is a large area of apricot forest, at this time it is when the apricots are ripe, the breeze passes, and the nose is full of the fragrance of apricots.

"It turns out that the apricots are already ripe......" Lin Mei stood by the window and couldn't help swallowing her saliva, she and Lin Shi went there a few years ago to steal yellow apricots, and then the two of them happily ran to share with Liu Yufei, but unfortunately now Lin Shi is married, and Liu Yufei is also engaged......

Shu Wangjin put the food box on the table of pineapple flowers, opened the lid of the box, and the soup and vegetables inside were indeed cold, he brought out the rice and melon soup, and did not tell Lin Mei that these meals were cold, but took the rice and chopsticks and ate it with the green onion omelette.

"How's it taste?" When Lin Mei saw him eating, she looked at him expectantly, she rarely cooked, so there were not many dishes she could cook, these were the home-cooked dishes she often ate, and she learned it.

This soup tastes bland, it should be seasoned with bone broth, this omelette is burnt in some places, which really affects the taste, as for this rice...... The particles are coarse and difficult to swallow.

Shu Wangjin slowly swallowed the rice in his mouth, a slight smile was drawn on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Lin Mei calmly, "It tastes good." "After doing business for a long time, the lies that come out of his mouth are the same as the truth.

Lin Mei suddenly smiled and narrowed her eyes, and her tone was sweet, "Then I'll recite poems to you!" After that, he paced a few steps with his head held high, cleared his throat a few times, and chanted loudly, "The magnolia oars are fragrant with lotus flowers, and the red evening air in the singing hall is cold; Outside the smoke of Liusi Lake, the water outside the mountain...... "......What's the yellow behind it?!"

"The mountain eyebrows are blue and the moon eyebrows are yellow." Shu Wangjin put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked up at Lin Mei, and said gently.

"Yes, yes, yes! That's it, I can't remember it......" Lin Mei hurriedly walked over and sat next to him, with a sad face, she memorized this poem dozens of times last night, but she didn't expect to forget it today, it's a shame! It turned out that Shu Wangjin also knew this poem, but fortunately he didn't say that he wrote this poem himself, otherwise he would really have no face to see people!

And since that day she was dismissed by Lin Mei in public, the more Miss Wang thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, she was favored since she was a child, how could she be so embarrassed? After being depressed for several days, I finally came up with a good idea that hurt people.

There is a shop in the capital that specializes in selling rouge powder, I heard that there is a kind of fat powder that can make a woman's complexion whiter, the effect is very significant, last time her cousin brought her a few boxes, she also loves beauty very much, seeing that the effect of this fat powder is so obvious, she applied it every day, it was really a lot whiter, and it also attracted all the ladies to ask her what method she used, and please her every day, so that she was so unhappy.

It's just that I don't know why I feel that my face is very itchy, and I hurriedly invited a doctor to come and see, it turns out that the fat powder is mixed with a lot of lead powder, which can indeed make people whiter, but if you use too much, it will cause a rash on your face, and it is possible to be disfigured, so she was so scared that she didn't dare to use it again.

After that, she wanted to throw away the remaining two boxes of fat powder, but that box cost more than 20 taels of silver, so she was naturally reluctant, so she kept it in the makeup, and this time it was useful......

Jinju has always been the transportation hub of all dynasties, with a developed economy and great prosperity, but Linshan County, which is directly under its jurisdiction, is obviously not contaminated with half of the benefits brought by its prosperity, and it is not as good as a small town next to the capital, and the only famous one is probably only that Luo Zhenfang!

Shu Zhou finally came to Linshan County, and he also admired his young master in his heart, even such a nest can be found, no wonder the Shu family's business is so big.

"Dongfeng Inn ......" should be here!

Shu Zhou, carrying a huge burden, walked in slowly, patted the shopkeeper's shoulder, and asked with a bright face, "Shopkeeper, may I ask if there was a son surnamed Shu here a few days ago?" ”

The shopkeeper saw that he looked handsome and had a hearty smile, although the burden he was carrying was really abnormal, but he didn't look like a bad person, so he politely told him which room Shu Wangjin lived in on the second floor.

"Thank you." Shu Zhou thanked him, and then continued to slowly move to the second floor.

Finding the room where the shopkeeper was talking about, he first straightened his waist, then straightened his clothes, and then knocked lightly on the door.

After a while, there was a sparse sound of movement inside, and then someone came and opened the door.

"......" Shu Zhou looked at the beautiful girl who opened the door in a daze, how did he remember that his young master should be a man? He hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, girl, I knocked on the wrong door...... and was about to turn away, but the girl behind him stopped him.

"Are you Suzhou?"

Shu Zhou thought about it carefully and felt that she should be calling herself, so she turned around, "The girl knows me?" ”

The girl in Tsing Yi nodded and chuckled, "Yes, I know your name is Suzhou." As she spoke, she pulled out an ink-splashed folding fan from her sleeve and opened it for him to see.

This...... Isn't this the real work of Ji Wuya that the young master bought for nine thousand nine hundred taels of silver?!

"This was given to me by Shu Wangjin, he said that Ji Wuya painted it......" The girl in Tsing Yi took the fan and pretended to be Sven and slapped it a few times, before continuing, "He said that you should arrive today, I didn't expect to guess so accurately, he just went out with his front foot, and you arrived with your back foot." ”

"This and this......" Shu Zhou looked at her with a frightened expression, and couldn't help but tremble, "What is the girl's surname?" ”

"My surname is Lin, and my single name is Mei, so it's good if you call me Lin Mei." Lin Mei looked at him with a smile, closed the folding fan, and looked a little bit of Shu Wangjin's chic posture.

Shu Zhou thought a lot of confusion in his heart at this time...... The young master has only been out for a few days and found his future master, this speed is too fast, or is it true that the capital does not match his young master? No wonder the young master wrote to him to take a few more boxes of peach makeup from the Qiaoyan Pavilion under the Shu family, which turned out to be for the future housewife...... Fortunately, he took a few boxes of every kind of rouge in his wit, and sure enough, he is the master's treasure bag and many stars!

He proudly shook the huge burden on his back, and his heart was complacent.
