Chapter 085 is even more remembered
Shen Youfu led Huaiqiu directly to the large kitchen in the main courtyard of the Xu family.
Although she is not going to cook a dish, this kind of thing must be done in the kitchen.
She was completely unfamiliar with the Xu family's road, and when she saw the Xu family's subordinates along the way, she beckoned one over and asked the other party to lead the way.
There is no rule for anyone to lead people directly into the kitchen.
But when the next person saw Huaiqiu who was following, he thought about it...... didn't question anything anymore, and immediately took Shen Youfu to the big kitchen.
A big kitchen is not a small kitchen. When Shen Youfu arrived, several large cauldrons were boiling water inside, many cooks and mothers-in-law were busy washing vegetables and cooking, and the maids and maids in each room were waiting outside with food boxes, ready to pack dishes and send them to the owners of each house.
Shen Youfu's appearance in front of people at this time is not eye-catching.
She was a little embarrassed, how could she forget that it was almost time for dinner? But it doesn't matter, she just came to ask for a few ingredients, and then took Huaiqiu to find a small kitchen to do it. Otherwise, my little bit of stuff occupies such a big kitchen stove, and it will delay other people's affairs, right?
Thinking of this, Shen Youfu cut the line to the front and poked her head into the kitchen: "I'll get some things, which of you is not busy at hand, come and talk." β
At this time, how can there be anyone who is not busy?
A cook shook off the water in her hands and looked back at Shen Youfu.
I saw a pretty girl looking at her with a sweet smile: "You go and get me something." β
People are watery...... However, look at this Aya Luo dress. It should be the personal maid of which young lady of the Shen family, right?
From top to bottom, almost everyone knows about the Xu Mansion. The second mother of the Xu family married a merchant like the Shen family! And I heard that Second Master Shen is now in charge of the Shen family's industry...... It's like an outbreak. The reason why the mother-in-law saw at a glance that Shen Youfu was the maidservant of the Shen family was also because of her dress.
Look at the people queuing up outside with food boxes, even the Qiao Yan next to the eldest lady is just wearing a cloth dress embroidered with blue on a blue background.
How can anyone dress like this?
What to wear, in fact, is nothing. But this rule ......
Don't you see everyone in line? Why did you come to the front alone?
The cook was dissatisfied, and just wanted to open her mouth to refuse, but when she raised her eyes, she saw the person behind Shen Youfu.
She rubbed her eyes incredulously - isn't this the Huaiqiu girl next to the old lady?
Huaiqiu takes care of the whole Qide Academy, although she is a subordinate and a woman, she can be regarded as half a scholar. The subordinates of the Xu family respect her very much...... Why did she accompany the maidservant of the Shen family?
β¦β¦ The cook just came to her lips to refuse. Swallowed it back.
"It's going to be busy. What are you going to take? β
It's purely for Miss Huaiqiu's face.
Huaiqiu heard the cook call Shen Youfu "you", and her tone was not polite at all, knowing that the cook must have mistaken Shen Youfu's identity, and just wanted to explain something. But I only heard Shen Youfu say: "Then there will be work." β
Shen Youfu did not correct the cook's statement. After all, the kitchen is really busy at this time.
She told the cook what she needed. Some of these things are commonly used. Some are not commonly used, the cook trotted through the boxes and cabinets to find them, and then stuffed them all into Shen Youfu's arms: "It's all here." You take it. However, to receive goods from the big kitchen, you have to register, and you have to write your master's name here. β
Shen Youfu was stuffed with a casserole for making soup in her arms, as well as a large number of scattered fritillary, dried loquats, and pears...... None of these things are light. Shen Youfu was almost leaning back, barely able to move.
She wasted her strength for a long time, and finally freed up one hand to sign a "Fu" on a booklet.
"Thank you." Shen Youfu struggled to hold things and said.
But the cook had already turned and left......
Huaiqiu looked at this scene, and it was too late to explain. But if you don't say anything, it seems a little too unruly!
She was entangled, but Shen Youfu didn't seem to care: "Huaiqiu? What do you think? Come with me and find the kitchenette closest to my grandfather's house. β
Shen Youfu walked all the way from Qide Courtyard just now, and did pass a small courtyard on the way. At that time, Shen Youfu specially asked and learned that the small courtyard was uninhabited.
It should be the most suitable place, not to let the smell of fireworks disturb the old lady, and not to be as far away as the big kitchen, and when it is boiled and delivered, it will be cool.
This time, Shen Youfu didn't find someone to lead the way, but led Huaiqiu by herself and went directly to the small courtyard.
Huaiqiu is very entangled!
Since she came out with Shen Youfu, she has always felt that she is rude. From the moment Shen Youfu asked for directions, she felt that she had failed too much. Later, when she met the cook, she wanted to explain Shen Youfu's identity several times, but she couldn't interject. Until now, she watched Shen Youfu holding a lot of things......
She wanted to take it, but Shen Youfu said no, she couldn't grab it, right?
Why can't I use those etiquette rules in the past today? I don't know if Miss Biao will think that the Xu family's descendants are very unruly!
Shen Youfu looked up at the name of this courtyard - Wenshan Courtyard.
She nodded in satisfaction. The Xu family is really exquisite, each courtyard has a name, and each one is so good-sounding. Think about the Shen family again - what is the main courtyard, the east courtyard and the west courtyard...... There is also the rice shop, which has the word "rice" at the beginning.
Why is the gap so big?
As she walked along the way, the things in Shen Youfu's hands became heavier and heavier, and she no longer paid attention to the scenery, and went directly to the small kitchen in the courtyard.
Huaiqiu hurriedly followed.
She didn't know what to say!
This courtyard is the residence of the old lady's most proud protΓ©gΓ©, Cao Wenshan and Cao Gongzi. Cao Gongzi and the old lady can be said to be friends of the year, often come to the house to discuss with the old lady, if it is already late when the day is happy, they simply sleep in the house.
This courtyard is specially prepared for Cao Gongzi.
Miss Biao just asked her if anyone lived here...... Now it's really not. But when the poetry meeting is held in two days, Cao Gongzi will definitely come.
But Miss Cousin has already gone in, how can you explain this?
Huaiqiu almost scratched her ears and cheeks.
Shen Youfu threw things into the kitchen and leaned out again: "Huaiqiu, what are you stunned about?" My grandfather asked you to come and learn pear stew with me, are you standing outside, through the wall, planning to learn the heart method? β
That's it, Huaiqiu completely gave up his entanglement - what are the etiquette rules, let Miss Biao teach herself to stew pears, there are no rules in this matter!
So speaking of which, it's also the old lady's problem.
Shen Youfu didn't know that in just one day in the Xu family, she was involved in countless people in the Xu family who were rude and broke the rules. But she herself was polite from beginning to end.
This time, I will definitely not give the eldest prince a handle.
Because Cao Gongzi was a foreigner, there was no one to take care of the Wenshan courtyard. Shen Youfu wasted a lot of effort to light the fire, and then took clean water and washed the materials. Then subdivide the ingredients into fine subdivisions, clean them up, remove the core, peel them, and put them in a casserole......
"Okay, that's it." Shen Youfu turned back to the stunned Huaiqiu and said, "Do you remember?" Be simmering and don't be afraid of time-consuming. The herbs here, the longer the time, the better the medicinal effect. But if the fire is hot, it's useless. β
Huaiqiu nodded like pounding garlic.
She remembered the steps and practices, and she remembered this unusual Miss Cousin!
I heard that the Shen family was a little vulgar and coppery. Although she was noncommittal, she agreed with this statement in her heart.
But when I met Miss Table today, I saw that the other party was calm and unrestrained. It seems to be very inconsistent with the rumors.
But if there was anything wrong, she couldn't think of it for a while.
Shen Youfu washed her hands in water. Looking at the pear stalks in the casserole that had not yet been stewed, Chong Huaiqiu smiled and casually talked about a topic: "Do you know about the poetry meeting?" Tell me about it. β
So far, where is Huaiqiu embarrassed to refuse Shen Youfu. So he said everything he knew.
Jing'an City is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River are flowing, which is a place rich in talents.
There are also many academies in this Jing'an City, such as the Lu'an Academy in the north of the city, and there are at least three in the city. There are many other small academies and private schools.
So everyone felt that instead of being the head of a family, it was better to gather hundreds of families. So we agreed to send a few representatives from the academy every autumn, and everyone gathered together to learn together.
Shen Youfu listened to it for a long time and finally understood.
She summed it up by herself - what talents value most is their name, and there is nothing lacking in the academy but there is no lack of talent. So when these talents are full of anger and overflow, we must give them a chance to release - this is the poetry club.
Practicing martial arts can be used every day, and if you practice a good strength, even if you can't punish evil and promote good, there is always an opportunity to carry the strength and make people show it.
But if you don't go to the temple, those knowledge seems to be useless in this life.
In this way, this is what the Poetry Society should do.
Shen Youfu nodded...... Since it is a big gathering of talented people in the city, it should not be difficult to choose a good candidate for the fifth sister.
As for Sixth Miss Shen Lian, hmph, I don't know which unlucky one will be caught by her!
Shen Youfu and Huaiqiu talked for a while, and seeing that the stewed pear had been cooked, they quickly closed the topic.
"When you present this to your grandfather, make sure he drinks it while it's hot. If something doesn't fit, write it down. I'll be here tomorrow this time waiting for you. "Shen Youfu is not troublesome at all, under the banner of an old lady here, she is more comfortable than sitting in the Lingxiao Courtyard.
Huaiqiu hurriedly nodded yes, took two steps with the pear soup, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly turned back to Shen Youfu and bowed deeply: "Thank you for the intentions of Miss Biao on behalf of the old lady." β
After Huaiqiu finished speaking, his heart that had been awkward was finally a little better - this time, it was not rude.
But she didn't want Shen Youfu to smile: "The rules of your Xu family are really not decent, the old lady is my grandfather, why did you thank me instead?" (To be continued......)
