Gao Jinli was obviously wronged, but she was framed for no reason, and she didn't know about it.

But it didn't take long to see from the lack of a share in her yard that Song Qiuniang was probably ready to make a move on her.

Gao Jinli has never been a bold person, otherwise she would not be so quiet in the Qin Mansion for so many years, so every night she can't sleep, Gao Jinli is thinking about whether Song Qiuniang will torture herself.

After three or four days, Gao Jinli couldn't stand it at all, so she quickly found Old Madam Qin's side, and knelt down just when she saw someone.

As soon as Old Madam Qin saw her like this, she knew that something must have happened, Gao Jinli had always been the person she fancied, so she naturally didn't want anyone to bully her, so she immediately called her up.

"If there's anything, just tell me, why come up and kneel, so people don't know what happened to you."

Gao Jinli knew that Old Madam Qin was really good to her, otherwise she would not be willing to stay with Old Madam Qin to serve for so many years.

But in the end, no matter how important the love between the two is, it can't match the heart that wants to live, Gao Jinli didn't dare to get up at all, just cried and kowtowed to Mrs. Qin.

"I said before that I wanted to serve the old lady, this matter is indeed from my heart, after all, since I came to this Qin family, it is the old lady who has been protecting me, so I have not suffered many grievances. But now that my life is in danger, I really don't dare to continue to stay in the Qin family, so I beg the old lady to let me leave, and Jinli should be grateful. ”

The people around her who have always been uncomplaining about their grievances are so panicked today, and Old Madam Qin also knows that she must have encountered something extremely serious, so she immediately straightened her face.

"Did Song Qiuniang stumble you again? Didn't I tell you before? If she dares to come, you will hide from me, and I will see if she dares to touch me. ”

Old Madam Qin's words were already very defended, but these days, the woman's death has been surrounding Gao Jinli's dreams, and she has already driven her crazy, so she can only cry and shake her head at this time.

"If I can hide for a while, how can I hide for a lifetime? The old lady can protect me for a day or two, there will always be a time of negligence, I don't want to die, I don't want to die yet, old lady! ”

At the end of the day, she almost trembled, and the terrible cry made the people outside the room hear it completely. Fortunately, the people here are trustworthy, so that everyone will not make a fuss in the end.

However, Gao Jinli didn't care about these at all at this moment, and Old Madam Qin looked at her and estimated that she couldn't say anything clearly, so she let her cry, and then let the people around her go to investigate.

In fact, the things in the house are not difficult to investigate, you must know that there are so many servants who are waiting, there are always one or two who are not strict-mouthed, not to mention that the people around Mrs. Qin asked about the maid who served by Gao Jinli's side, and at this time, she told Song Qiuniang in detail about what she had visited, so this person took the words back.

Song Qiuniang has not been arrogant for a year or two, but there are some things that Old Madam Qin has turned a blind eye to, and it is not impossible to pass.

It's just that Gao Jinli is treated by her sincerely, so naturally she can't be bullied at will, and after hearing this, Mrs. Qin directly stood up and said that she wanted to get justice for Gao Jinli.

Where did Gao Jinli dare to let Old Madam Qin go on such a trip at this time? Hurriedly stopped, "I naturally know that the old lady is kind, but I'm really afraid of her, I've really had enough of this daily worrying life, the old lady should be pitiful and pity me, let me go." ”

Gao Jinli was crying with tears, and Mrs. Qin also felt a little unbearable, but in the end this was her son's concubine, and she didn't care much, so she could only say that she thought about it and asked Gao Jinli to wait for news.

It's just that Gao Jinli really couldn't wait, so she packed up her few things that night and escaped through the side door, and there has been no news since then.

Of course, Song Qiuniang was happy to run away by herself, after all, it would save herself a lot of trouble, and she didn't have to worry about it in the future.

So the Qin family gradually settled down.

But said that on the Shen family's side, since the old lady felt guilty about Qin Wuran, she didn't care about her after that, seeing that the Zhou family and the Yang family had nothing to do, if they wanted to toss, they had to reprimand them for being a junior, and over time, the people of the Shen Mansion also understood that this foreign girl was not easy to provoke.

After all, with the old lady as the backing, Shen Jingan and Shen Linzhou also have a lot of intentions to protect her, as long as this person is a clear-eyed person, he will not dare to move.

The renovation of the mountain and river restaurant has gradually reached the halfway point, Shen Linzhou took her to take a look, and saw that the glamorous place was transformed into another look, and finally had a little bit of the meaning of eating the shop, Qin Wuran also felt very happy in her heart, and put forward a few opinions, and those workers did not dare to slack off.

So in such a hurry, all the repairs were finally completed on the ninth day, and the workers waited for Shen Linzhou and the two to inspect it, and when Qin Wuran saw this brand-new mountain and river restaurant, she couldn't help but have a slight heat in the corners of her eyes.

"Isn't everything already fixed, what's there to be sad about?" Shen Linzhou patted her on the shoulder and comforted her with some amusement.

Qin Wuran also knew that her emotions were coming quickly, and she rubbed her eyes a little embarrassedly, and then said, "I just think it would be nice if my grandfather was still here." ”

Compared with Li Ji Restaurant, Mrs. Li obviously pays more attention to the hard work of Shanhe Restaurant. After all, this was founded by him, with the dream he had sought all his life, but he died in the hands of his own daughter, and in the end he was trimmed by the other party, how could he not be sad?

If he was still there, how happy he would be to see the mountains and rivers restaurant see the light of day again.

"The deceased is gone, there is no need to do more memorials, let yourself fall into that inextricable grief, you just remember your grandfather's will, take good care of the mountains and rivers, that is, let her feel the greatest relief."

How could Qin Wuran not understand this truth? So he nodded, looking a little solemn.

So that afternoon, the two of them went to buy the things to be used in the Shanhe restaurant in person, after all, some small things such as dishes, plates and chopsticks, and the two people who were not busy also had a lot of fun, and when the goods were settled, more than two hours had passed, and seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Qin Wuran pulled Shen Linzhou's sleeve and said to him: "Let's go back early." ”

After all, there are still people in the family waiting for her to go back to cook.

However, Shen Linzhou did not agree, but pulled her deeper into the long street.

After passing the shops that sold daily necessities, and after a while, they arrived at a place that sold clothes and jewelry, Qin Yanran didn't understand what Shen Linzhou meant at first, and it wasn't until he asked for some fabric to compare with her that he understood in a little panic.

"Don't buy it for me, I'm not without clothes, I can't spend your money anymore." As soon as she said this, she was a little ashamed, after all, there were still people in the shop next to her, and as soon as she said this, it was like saying that she often spent other people's money.

It's just that the people in the shop also misunderstood the relationship between the two of them, and with a kind smile on the corner of their lips, they persuaded him: "This clothes and jewelry, the girl's family is never too much, since this son wants to buy a few pieces for the girl, the girl doesn't have to make more excuses, it hurts the relationship between the two in vain." ”

Qin Wuran was blushed by this sentence, and she couldn't explain anything.

She originally wanted to say that the relationship between the two was not that relationship, but if it wasn't, how could she explain the care that Shen Linzhou had taken care of her?

But she also has self-knowledge, knowing that she is eighty percent unworthy of Shen Linzhou, but she doesn't think much about it.

And Shen Linzhou saw that she was becoming more and more uncomfortable, so he helplessly explained in her ear: "Our Shanhe restaurant will have to earn the money of those big families in the future, if you don't dress better, how can you deceive the guests?" Besides, it doesn't cost a lot of money to buy clothes, and if you mention noodles, no one will look down on you. ”

Some time ago, when he invited those palace people to come over to renovate the mountain and river restaurant, the foreman looked at the clothes of these two people and judged that Qin Wuran was just a servant who followed Shen Linzhou.

After all, for these people with vision, since they don't know the identity of the other party, they can only look at the clothes and temperament on their bodies, Shen Linzhou is dressed in brocade clothes and has a high-quality jade pendant, and it is very normal for others to regard him as the master.

However, seeing that Qin Wu was not wearing cloth clothes, even the colors were not so bright, and there was no decoration on her body, so it can be seen what kind of attitude others would maintain.

That's why Shen Linzhou thought of buying her some outfits, and by the way, he also chose some materials for Qin Cinian and Qin Yingnian, and measured the size on the spot.

"If you are really unhappy in your heart, you should owe it, the left and right clothes and jewelry are indispensable to your daughter's family, and you will not lose money if you keep it yourself."

What else can Qin Wuran do? He could only agree, but he didn't think that he had just nodded, so he led himself to the jewelry shop next to him, and selected a pair of jade bracelets and some headdresses, which were sent back by three or five boxes.

I also bought a few pieces of ready-to-wear, Shen Linzhou suddenly became interested, and directly picked out a set of goose yellow dresses and stuffed them in Qin Wuran's hand, the jade bracelet was put on her hand and never took it off, Shen Linzhou found a hairband embroidered with cloud patterns, and couldn't wait for her to go over and change it.

Where can I change clothes in Shanhe Restaurant? Fortunately, there is no one in the shop now, so just find a random one to close the door, and it can just be replaced.

The flush on Qin Wu's face has not subsided, as long as she thinks of someone waiting outside for her to change her clothes and go out, she will inevitably feel a little ashamed, but looking at those luxurious clothes, she is a little worried in her heart.

You must know that she has been in arrears these days, and she has always been taken care of by the Shen family, and she has not been able to pay off what she owes, but she still owes it again because of these clothes and jewelry, when Shen Linzhou settled the money, her thoughts seemed to be about to turn, and she watched him settle the money in a daze, and that attitude was relaxed and casual that she had never dared to think.

Good clothes are indeed different, the close-fitting underwear is soft and comfortable, and it has a bit of a cold touch, and the material is also slippery, Qin Wuran has never seen such good material at all.

Speaking of the coat, not to mention the good material, the color is also excellent, bright and bright.

The hair that was scattered behind her back was slightly tied with a hairband, looking a little relaxed and casual, Qin Wuran adjusted her sleeves awkwardly, running around like a boy from childhood to adulthood, and had never worn such girlish clothes, only felt that even her own steps were slightly controlled, and she didn't dare to open the river.

So when she came out, Shen Linzhou was originally drinking tea, and when she looked at the figure with slightly lowered eyes, the tea in her hand couldn't be drunk at all.

The girl is already delicate, she can't be regarded as a country and a city, this is also delicate and lovely, plus that dress makes her more bright, and also adds a bit of gentleness to her, just raise her eyes slightly, as if the dim lights in the shop are suddenly bright.

Shen Linzhou was a little stunned, Ah Jin was also a little surprised, and the two small ones were more direct, and they were completely surprised in their eyes when they surrounded Qin Wuran, and they also chattered that their sister was good-looking.

The day of discomfort in Qin Wuran's heart was eliminated as much as possible, and she pulled one in one hand to let them not run around and bump into it, and then put her eyes on Shen Linzhou's side.

Maybe she didn't even notice it herself, but when she looked at Shen Linzhou, there was actually a bit of hope in her eyes.

It was as if I was looking forward to his compliment.

Fortunately, Shen Linzhou quickly came back to his senses, coughed lightly to hide his indifference, and then his eyes drifted to the side slightly, and then he replied a little awkwardly: "It's really good-looking." ”

After receiving this compliment, Qin Wuran smiled sincerely, and that appearance happened to fall into Shen Linzhou's eyes again, making his heart jump faster inexplicably.

"Then let's go back." In order to hide his embarrassment, Shen Linzhou said this.

Ah Jin has also been with his grandfather since he was a child, why don't you know that he is shy? I thought that I could still see him in this life, but I didn't dare to joke because I knew his temper.

It's just that when helping the eyes to patrol between the two, Ah Jin's eyes were full of smiles, probably laughing at each other, although the two of them were interested in each other, no one was willing to open this mouth first.

It's kind of funny.

After shopping, it was naturally too late to go back to cook, but fortunately, Shen Linzhou had already asked people to go to the Shen Mansion to inform them halfway through, so that Shen Jingan and the old lady were not waiting for them hungry.

And they themselves went to the Shen family's restaurant, ordered a table of dishes, and didn't eat much in the end.

"What do you think of the chefs in our restaurant?" Shen Linzhou asked.

This sentence was asked, in fact, from Qin Wanran's position, she shouldn't say bad things, but after the food was eaten, she really couldn't say anything unkind, so she could only say euphemistically: "It's okay." ”

A "Shang Ke" already contains a lot of meanings, Shen Linzhou knew that she was because she didn't say a lot of bad things about the Shen family restaurant in front of her, but what he wanted today was just a comment, so he naturally waved his hand and said to her: "My question is naturally to ask you, without the intention of temptation, you can answer according to what you think, I don't blame you." ”

As soon as this statement came out, I wanted to get an answer that was not ambiguous, which meant that it was very obvious, so Qin Wuran didn't hide her thoughts, but only replied: "I think this dish is a little simpler, Daqi's recipes are just a few, and there are not many local seasonings, so I'm afraid the taste will be a little bland." However, the chefs' intentions can be tasted in the dishes, but although the presentation is more exquisite, it makes people look forward to it a little more, so the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, maybe that's what I think. ”

"That's true," Shen Linzhou nodded, "Actually, before I tasted your craftsmanship, I also thought that the food in the Shen Family Restaurant should be the best in the entire imperial capital, and I was used to eating the dishes in the house, but it seems that after tasting your craftsmanship, I felt that the food in our restaurant was a little bland, and the presentation was more delicate than yours, but at a glance, and then compared with the feeling of entering the mouth, I couldn't help but feel disappointed." ”

The family has been in business for so many years, what good things have Shen Linzhou not tasted? When the Shen Family Restaurant was handed over to him, he ate the dishes of the Shen Family Restaurant every day, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong, and even felt that the dishes of the Shen Family Restaurant were at least better than those chefs in his house.

But the premise of all this is that there is no craftsmanship longer than Qin Wuran.

It's not that she is young and her skills are already superb, but when Mrs. Li was young, she traveled from south to north for so many years, and she has seen a lot, and the materials are very bold, and there are many spices that can be used in medicine, and most people don't know that in addition to medicine, there is also a seasoning effect, only he dares to put it in, which is one of the reasons why Qin Wuran will learn this.

But compared to Da Qi's people who are used to eating these mundane things, the food made by Qin Wuran has become a novel experience, which is why she obviously thinks that there is nothing magical about it, but others can't stop it.

In the final analysis, it is also because of shallow knowledge.

"Okay, I can't eat the food in this restaurant, don't I still stew chicken soup when I go back? If you give me some noodles to eat, I won't be hungry. ”

"Yes, anyway, I'll trouble Miss Qin when I go back." Ah Jin also chimed in.

The two little ones didn't eat much good things when they were in the Qin family, but under such conditions, they developed the habit of not wasting it, and although the food they ate in the restaurant today was not as good as Qin's craftsmanship, they also ate a lot.

At this time, when he heard that the two of them actually said that they were going back to open a small stove, their eyes widened, and Qin Yingnian felt a little aggrieved, and his eyes turned red, and he whispered: "I want to go back to eat too." ”

Qin Wuran was so troubled by her that she couldn't cry or laugh, so she could only coax and persuade her, saying that she wouldn't do it for them, so that the two little ones could balance their hearts a little.

It's just that if you don't do it, you can't really not do it, the amount of food for the two of you is obvious to all these days, and then look at the fact that there are basically no chopsticks in the restaurant today, Qin Wuran can't bear to let them be hungry until tomorrow morning, so she went back in the evening and ordered them some noodles, and finally made up for the dinner of the two.
