The conversation after lunch didn't last long. One after another, there were children in other rooms who were sleepy and were taken home by their own mothers. Xie Meijun also has to take her daughter to accompany her mother Song to the second room for a lunch break, and in the afternoon she has to go back to her home in Zhushan Academy across the river to reunite with her husband.

Wen also took Xie Mulin and Xie Yingfen to resign and went back to the new house through the back door. On the way, Xie Yingfen had always been in a good mood, holding Xie Mulin's second sister's hand affectionately, whispering, talking about what kind of snacks to make to attract Yang Yuan.

Xie Mulin took the initiative to say: "Among the books I copied, there are many good dim sum recipes, and the fourth sister can flip through them herself, see which one she likes, and let the cook try it." ”

Xie Yingfen jumped up happily: "I'm just waiting for the second sister's words!" When I stayed at Li's house in Beimenqiao before, I saw my sister selling dim sum recipes to the pastry shop in front, and I was still curious about what the pastries made according to that recipe tasted. ”

Wen Shi turned around and said with a smile: "Your second sister told me at that time that the recipes sold were not exquisite dim sum, and they were more suitable for the general public to buy and taste. I'm afraid that these dim sum will not be as delicious as the ones you are used to eating. ”

Xie Yingfen tilted her head and said: "Whether the dim sum is delicious or not depends on the taste, not the appearance." The cake I ate in the sect room today looks like a brown and black square cake, which is not remarkable at all, but it tastes very good. Once upon a time, I went to those prince's mansions with my wife and eldest sister, and the dim sum was exquisite, but the taste was far worse than the brown and black cakes, sweet and greasy, and it was just a few tricks that came and went, and it was just a good look. Our family is not a wealthy family, what do you want those useless dim sum? ”

Xie Mulin said with a smile: "Since you want to eat it so much, then let's sort out the dim sum recipes we have at home one by one, see which ingredients are easier to obtain, and try to make them one by one, which ones you like to eat, and make more in the future." ”

Xie Yingfen clapped her hands and said, "Okay, okay!" Then he paused, "But...... Will it cost a lot of money? She knew that her family's situation was not as good as before, and although she had grown so big, she had never worried about money, but she didn't want to cause trouble to her family for her own preferences.

Xie Mulin smiled and said, "We don't make a lot of dim sum in large quantities, how much can it cost?" The ingredients are nothing more than flour, rice flour, eggs, sugar, milk, and more, that is, some dried fruits, fruits, etc. If the cost is too expensive, we will not touch it. If you find a suitable recipe, you can send someone to open a small pastry shop in the county in the future, and you can also sell it for money, so you can subsidize your family? ”

Xie Yingfen suddenly became happy again.

Wen did not seem to object to his daughter's suggestion, and said: "The clansmen have all the industries of raising chickens and grinding flour, and when they need to buy eggs and rice noodles, they can just go to them, which is cheaper than buying them from outside, and they are more reliable because they are their own family." Sugar, dried fruits, fresh fruits, etc., the caravan at home should have goods, it is best to mention it to the shopkeeper Mao and ask them to send some. Milk...... It's cow's milk, right? It's a rarity. However, so many families in the clan have land, and there are always people who raise cattle. ”

Xie Mulin responded, but he was thinking in his heart, will the farmers around Taihu Lake raise cattle mainly buffalo? Buffalo milk is also very delicious, but the amount is small, and it is used to make snacks, so I don't know how the effect is......

The mother and daughter took the girl back to the main courtyard of the new house, where Wanqin was already waiting, and hurriedly greeted her.

Wen smiled and sat down on the main seat, and asked Wanqin, "Aunt Qin has eaten, right?" Did you send lunch to Huizhi and Hanzhi? ”

Wanqin paused and replied with a smile: "Mrs. Xie inquired, the concubine has already had lunch." The food for the third young master and the fourth young master had already been sent to the clan study, and the two young masters had used the meal, and the next person took the food box back. Both young masters said that lunch was delicious. ”

"It's good to use it." Wen couldn't help but stretch his waist, beat his back and said, "It's nothing, you go back and rest, and come over to wait for dinner." ”

Wanqin answered, but did not retreat.

However, Xie Mulin and Xie Yingfen glanced at each other, smiled and agreed to talk in one place in the afternoon, so they said goodbye to Wen, left the main house, and walked in two directions.

Wanqin doesn't live in the same yard with her daughter now, so she doesn't have to go together. She stayed in the main room, stood aside, and looked at Wen Shi again and again, looking like she wanted to speak and stopped.

Wen was actually a little sleepy, but seeing Wanqin's appearance, it was impossible to send people away directly, so he had to take a fan and ask while shaking it: "What do you have to say to me?" ”

Wanqin stepped forward and bowed on her knees before telling her what was on her mind.

It turned out that Xie Huizhi and Xie Hanzhi's little brothers, entered the clan study one day earlier than the two elder brothers, and now they have adapted to it. Xie Hanzhi is a well-behaved child, every day when he comes home from school, he will report to his biological mother Wanqin what he has done that day, what homework he has learned, what he said to his classmates, where he went, what games he played, and so on. It is the first time for Xie Hanzhi to experience such a school life, and he is very happy that he has made new friends, he is happy every day, and he is becoming more and more cheerful day by day.

But the worry in Wanqin's heart is getting deeper and deeper day by day.

When the Xie family was in the capital in the past, the family invited Xixi to teach the young masters, in addition to Xie Xianzhi and Xie Jinzhi invited the Confucian, Xie Huizhi had no intention of learning, in fact, there was also a person who raised Xixi to teach Xie Han's poetry and books. Xie Hanzhi has studied very well, except for being younger and frail, in terms of intelligence and talent, he may not be inferior to the two eldest brothers. After the accident of the Xie family, Wanqin abandoned the old master and stayed in the Xie family, with great expectations for her son, hoping that he could get ahead and fight for himself.

However, there are only two gentlemen in the clan of the Xie family, and there are twenty or thirty students of different ages in the school!

Wanqin is worried that Xie Hanzhi will not be able to get enough attention from his husband, will not be able to learn useful knowledge, and will be more likely to be led by other naughty classmates to have no intention of learning, so what is his future in this life? !

She didn't dare to say that she disliked Xie Clan's studies, so she could only talk about Xie Hanzhi's playfulness: "Since the fourth young master entered the clan study, and together with the third young master, he has met many classmates of the same clan and relatives, so it is better to study hard in the past." Every day for lunch, the third young master will take the fourth young master together and share the food sent by the family with his classmates, and I don't know if the two young masters themselves have enough to eat. However, I heard that the young master of the seventh room had taken the fourth young master to the dock to buy food, and I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat, I was afraid that the fourth young master would eat my stomach! Yesterday, the fourth young master got out of school early, but he didn't come back until dark. I asked him where he went, and he said that he was going to hang out in the county town with Young Master Jinduan, and he was greedy for fun, and he didn't pay attention to the hour, and he almost didn't catch up with the gate of the city.

"The fourth young master has been smart since he was a child, and he is good at homework, but only because he is young can he enter the clan to study. But most of the children in the clan study are naughty children, and the concubine is worried that someone will lead the fourth young master to have no intention of learning and delay his homework, so he thinks about it...... I wonder if I can ask my wife to ask the second old lady, so that our fourth young master can also go to the academy with the two elder brothers? The gentlemen in the academy are more knowledgeable than the gentlemen of the clans, and the classmates have better family backgrounds and are more stable. Presumably, when the fourth young master went to the academy, he would definitely be able to concentrate on his homework again. ”

Wen's movement of shaking the fan slowly stopped, and he looked at Wanqin thoughtfully.
