Chapter 135: She Begins to Doubt Herself

Shen Xiaoyu couldn't sleep at night, Qin Huaijin had taken the big exam for three days, and it had been two days, thinking that Qin Huaijin would be able to come out tomorrow evening, Shen Xiaoyu was a little apprehensive.

I used to feel that a wild girl in the countryside was not worthy of Qin Huaijin as a rich young master, but now if Qin Huaijin has good grades, she will also become an official in the future. Even if she has a small business now, it is not bad at best, even if it is compared with the Qin family's business in Liaoyang City, she is not enough to see, if Qin Huaijin becomes an official in the future, there will definitely be a better official lady to match, if she marries a country girl, I am afraid that Qin Huaijin's future will be delayed.

I couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning in bed, and I couldn't get up the next morning, Gu Siyan didn't see Shen Xiaoyu's person, and thought that Shen Xiaoyu left early in the morning, so he went to Zhao's house to diagnose Zhao Yulun, and the door was locked when he left.

When Shen Xiaoyu got up, he was already in the sun, and his head was dizzy, and after changing his clothes and washing, he wanted to go out, but he couldn't push the door open.

"You're not going to lock me in, are you?" Shen Xiaoyu's head hurt even more, and Gu Siyan went out to diagnose the patient, and he couldn't come back until noon.

Shen Xiaoyu stepped on the basket and leaned on the wall first, and shouted at the courtyard on the left: "Sister-in-law Sun! Sister-in-law Sun! ”

Sister-in-law Sun came out when she heard the movement, and saw Shen Xiaoyu waving at her from a distance.

"Little fish? I went to the shop today, and I saw that you weren't there, and the door was locked, so you were at home? Sister-in-law Sun asked, still a little scared in her heart, afraid that Shen Xiaoyu wanted to regret it and didn't want to hire her.

Shen Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "I got up late, and my family thought I was leaving, so they locked the door!" ”

"So what now?" Sister-in-law Sun asked, "Smash the lock?" ”

Shen Xiaoyu said: "Then no, someone should come back at noon, sister-in-law, let's go together at noon." ”

Sister-in-law Sun nodded: "Cheng!" ”

The two said okay, Shen Xiaoyu came down first, anyway, there was nothing to do today, and there were no guests to pick up the order, so let's rest at home first.

When Gu Siyan came back, Shen Xiaoyu was already hungry, she couldn't cook, Qin Huaijin was not at home, she didn't even have any leftovers, so she could only drink water and be full first.

Gu Siyan was taken aback: "You didn't leave?" I didn't look at you when I woke up in the morning, I thought you were leaving early! ”

Shen Xiaoyu shook his head slowly and leisurely, and said, "I didn't sleep well last night, I didn't get up in the morning, you take a look at the pot first, I boiled white potatoes, don't worry about it!" "I can't do anything else, so I can only use this method to get some food first, but fortunately, there are still sweet potatoes to cook at home."

Gu Siyan went to the kitchen to put things out, and then mixed some side dishes with dried radish, re-added rice to the pot, and cooked a pot of porridge......

Gu Siyan sat down and said: "Don't say that the daughter of an ordinary family wants to learn some kitchen skills, even if it is a young lady, she has to have eight dishes and three soups, you can't cook to this point, it's also outrageous, at least don't let yourself starve to death!" ”

Shen Xiaoyu is also helpless, Cui Fenglan knows a lot, so she can't learn how to teach by hand, she is no longer talentless, she is simply rushing with the stove, what kind of paste!

"Then what should I do......" Shen Xiaoyu said, very listless.

She is also self-reflecting now, a woman, can't cook, is it really a big mistake, she has tried her best to make up for it, make more money outside, can't contribute, she can pay. It's just that Qin Huaijin's cooking can't be known to the people of the Qin family after all, if Qian Yuemei knew that she let her baby son cook, she might be able to use her as firewood.

Although they are now in Kyoto City, the Qin family can't know, but if Qin Huaijin becomes an official in the future, if he still lets Qin Huaijin cook, he is afraid that he will be ridiculed by his colleagues. Even if Kyoto City is tolerant of women, the status of men and women is still obvious, and women should revolve around men, children, and pots.

Looking at Shen Xiaoyu and sighing, he said, "It's okay to invite the cook in the future." "Qin Huaijin is definitely going to get results in this big exam, and when the conditions are good in the future, how difficult it will be to hire a cook.

When Shen Xiaoyu heard this, she still sighed, she is not omnipotent after all, some things really can't be done, but fortunately, Qin Huaijin is not a harsh person and helps her share a lot.

The porridge on the pot was ready, and Gu Siyan thought that even if he didn't know how to cook, he could finally get something to swallow, and he wouldn't die of hunger.

After the two of them had eaten, Gu Siyan went to read a book, and Shen Xiaoyu should also go to the shop to have a look, and said before leaving: "Let's go out to eat in the evening, find a good restaurant, you estimate the time, go to the shop to find me, and go to the entrance of the examination institute to wait for someone!" ”

Gu Siyan nodded, Shen Xiaoyu left first, and when she went to call Sister-in-law Sun, Grandma Sun was still scolding in the house, so Shen Xiaoyu didn't hear it, and went to the shop with Sun Song.

On the first day of Sister-in-law Sun's visit, Shen Xiaoyu first told Sister-in-law Sun the location of the things in the shop, and then taught Sister-in-law Sun how to pick up and order.

"The shop is not big, that is, some trivial matters, Sister-in-law Sun can help me receive it, and we can take our time for other things in the future!" Shen Xiaoyu said, anyway, Sister-in-law Sun knows how to read, and she won't make a mistake or let people be deceived.

There were a lot of people who needed to rush work a year ago, so Shen Xiaoyu hurriedly got out all the goods to be delivered, and then he didn't take orders first, and everything was said after the year, and Qin Huaijin was the main one during this period.

In the evening, Shen Xiaoyu heard the bell ringing from the examination institute, she knew that this was a reminder to hand in the papers, so she quickly put down the work in her hand and let Sister-in-law Sun go home first.

Gu Siyan also happened to arrive at this time, Shen Xiaoyu locked the shop, and the two walked in the direction of the examination institute.

The examination hall is not far away, Shen Xiaoyu also went to see it during the day, and when he went again at this time, he saw that there were many people around the door, and they were all waiting for someone. Some wait for their husbands, others for their sons.

"Is the eldest lady waiting for her son?" Shen Xiaoyu asked, this eldest lady looks like she is in her fifties, and her son should be in his thirties.

The eldest lady shook her head: "No, I'm waiting for my wife!" ”

"Huh? Auntie and other wives? That uncle has a long life? Shen Xiaoyu was very surprised, even if there is no age limit for the scientific expedition of this dynasty, it is ......

"My wife is seven out of fifty!" The eldest lady said helplessly: "I've been taking the exam for more than 30 years, and I have lost some accumulation to my ancestors, or I have to starve to death, it's really shocking to take the test!" ”

Shen Xiaoyu was very embarrassed, the big examination in this dynasty is the only way for civilians to enter the office, how many people are also studying hard for fame and fortune for many years, but this uncle is fifty-seven, even if he is admitted, what can he do?

After waiting for a while, Qin Huaijin finally came out, Shen Xiaoyu hurriedly called someone, and Qin Huaijin came over with a smile.

"Looking at you like this, you should be reliable?" Shen Xiaoyu asked, if the answer is not good, it is estimated that there will be no smile!

Qin Huaijin said: "It's okay, let's go first, this person will be more in a while!" ”

Shen Xiaoyu nodded, and the three of them left the entrance of the examination hall and went to the treasure building in the city.

The Needlework Building is one of the better restaurants in Kyoto City, and the chef is from the north, so the dishes in the north are good. Shen Xiaoyu came to book a table in the afternoon, but he was afraid that there would be too many people in the evening and there would be no seats.

"Are you willing to spend money like this today?" Qin Huaijin said with a smile, Shen Xiaoyu is very frugal on weekdays.

Shen Xiaoyu said with a smile: "It's okay, the money used to set the table was earned by Gu Siyan, hahaha!" ”

Gu Siyan smiled, but he also knew that his own consultation fee was not much, and the price on the side of Zhenyulou was not cheap.

Shen Xiaoyu also drank wine rarely, which could be regarded as a celebration that Qin Huaijin had ended his life of preparing for the exam for so long, and the next days would be easier.

Gu Siyan asked, "When will the results come out?" ”

"The tenth day of the new year." Qin Huaijin said, it just spans a New Year, but I don't know how many people have a bad time this year.

Several people ate, although Shen Xiaoyu drank wine, but she felt that her alcohol consumption was okay, Qin Huaijin and Gu Siyan were all swaying, she didn't have anything to do, she was pulling left and right, and she could be regarded as returning home.

threw Gu Siyan on the bed, took off his shoes and covered the quilt, and it was over.

Qin Huaijin lay down well, Shen Xiaoyu went to the stove and scooped some warm water, wiped his face, wiped his hands, fed some water, and then let Qin Huaijin sleep well.

Shen Xiaoyu went back to the room and went to bed early, but the next day, the three people in the courtyard didn't get up.

Shen Xiaoyu reluctantly got up, gave the shop to Sister-in-law Sun, and said, "Sister-in-law will go to the locksmith to get a key, in case I can't go one day, you can open the shop." "Then the money was given for the locks.

Sister-in-law Sun took the key and went to the shop, and Shen Xiaoyu went home and went to sleep.

Qin Huaijin got up at noon, and there were not many dishes that could be used in the kitchen in winter, so he was busy in the kitchen. Gu Siyan was just a poor drinker, but Qin Huaijin knew that the most tired person in his big exam was Shen Xiaoyu, who was worried about him outside and worried about him, both physically and mentally exhausted.

Shen Xiaoyu listened to the sound of stir-frying in the kitchen, the aroma wafted out of the air, lying in the hot quilt, the whole person felt happy. After working so hard before, the happiness she got would feel very happy, if she lived like this every day, she would be uneasy, and always felt that one day her blessings would be consumed.

Getting up and putting on his clothes, Shen Xiaoyu felt that if he continued to be lazy like this, he was afraid that he would lose his fighting spirit.

Qin Huaijin saw that Shen Xiaoyu got up, so he put all the food on the table, and Gu Siyan also got up and ate the meal first.

"Now that the big exam is over, should we set a certain date for marriage?" Qin Huaijin said.

Shen Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, looked at Qin Huaijin, and even Gu Siyan looked at it.
