Shen Shiliu also thought a lot, so he said: "This matter is easy to say, I am a technician, and you are a talent." ”

"It's as simple as that?" Xiao Zhi's eyes lit up, Yanxia said, this shopkeeper Shen is very hard, and the buyers of many restaurant shopkeepers can't talk about it!

Shen Shiliu smiled lightly: "Of course it's not so simple, the person you come out of must be absolutely obedient, and you can't jump to another restaurant for the rest of your life, you have four people, and I will keep two." Now she has the heart to give up the restaurant, but she can't safely hire a cook or take an apprentice, otherwise her small shop will be suspended as soon as her skills are outflowed.

Xiao Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Mrs. Du can trust me so much?" Aren't you afraid that I'll let the cook learn the craft and leave? ”

Shen Shiliu smiled happily this time and said, "Of course I can't believe it!" ”

Xiao Zhi also smiled, knowing that he was thinking too naïvely.

"But if the little marquis is really sincere, he will walk around with my family more in the future." As soon as Shen Shimei's words came out, Xiao Zhi understood, and said with a smile: "Everyone in Kyoto City knows that our Xiao family is weak, even if Mrs. Du wants to climb the high branches and hug her thighs, why choose my Luhou Mansion?" ”

Shen Shiliu shook his head: "Our Du family is not a person who climbs the dragon and attaches the phoenix, if so, it is estimated that I will not be able to marry into the door of the Du family, there are many dignitaries and nobles in Kyoto City, and there is no shortage of people who have taken a fancy to Du Xuanmo, just choose one, you can make him prosperous, why bother here?" ”

Xiao Zhi raised his eyebrows and said, "Then Mrs. Du's meaning I Xiao don't understand. ”

"It's just cooperation, it doesn't matter if I believe it or not, it doesn't matter if you and I meet on the first day, if I open my mouth and say that I believe you, don't you still think I'm hypocritical. But I can trust the reputation of Luhou Mansion, if the little marquis doesn't want to have a shameless reputation, he naturally won't do that kind of small action! After Shen Shimei finished speaking, Xiao Zhi applauded directly.

"It's really an eye-opener, the people of the Du family are all outliers in Kyoto City, and now that I look at it, I don't think it's so difficult to understand, okay, I promise what you say." Xiao Zhi said directly, and asked Shen Shimei: "Mrs. Du is not afraid that this decision will be too hasty?" ”

Shen Shiliu smiled and shook his head: "The little marquis also knows that this Kyoto city is not easy to mix, with the merits of the old prince, this Luhou Mansion is estimated to not eat many teenagers, and today I am willing to cooperate with the little marquis, it is nothing more than that I feel that this bumpy road ahead, there can be someone to support and move forward." ”

Shen Shimei's words made Xiao Zhi silent, Xiao Zhi felt that what Shen Shiliu said reached his heart, and Luhou Mansion was indeed difficult now. It seems that the scenery is infinite, but it has long been gone. Although his aunt is the imperial concubine, but the first emperor is dead, what is the use of a concubine? The shops are not very profitable, otherwise, he would not have to think so much about a restaurant.

It's not that he doesn't pay attention to his identity, it's that this identity is sometimes useless.

"I understand, Mrs. Du is now waiting at home after today's tea party, and I will choose a few loyal servants to send them over." Xiao Zhi said, although it is only because of the interests of the restaurant that they came together, but in the future, the Du family and the Xiao family will be grasshoppers tied to a rope.

Shen Shiliu nodded: "I hope when the little marquis will be able to come to the Du family for a visit, my husband will definitely be a guest!" After saying this, Shen Shiliu first returned to the garden and sat down again.

Jingwen looked at Shen Shimei's calm face, and asked, "Got on the hook with the Xiao family?" ”

Shen Shiliu smiled and touched Jingwen's head: "Well, this Kyoto City is really not easy to mix. ”

Halfway through the tea party, the imperial concubine felt tired and retreated first, and the ladies of each family saw that the concubines were gone, and they all left, Shen Shiliu still didn't go out to hook up with which lady and miss, this trip was not perfect.

When he went out, there were several carriages at the door, all of them were blocked at the door, Shen Shiliu took a look, his own carriage was not far away, and he could have walked over directly, but people from other families were waiting in place, Shen Shiliu felt that this was an opportunity!

"This lady is careful, the steps are high, stand up and order." Shen Pomegranate found his original goal, it was okay to find something if he didn't have anything to say, no matter what, he would talk first.

The young woman smiled and nodded, but did not speak.

Shen Shiliu felt that he had touched an iron plate, and wondered if he was too explosive, and people were not uncommon?

Jingwen said to the young woman at this time: "My sister-in-law wants to invite Mrs. to come to the house, I wonder if Mrs. can enjoy the light?" ”

Shen Shiliu was surprised, Jingwen invited people so abruptly, wouldn't it be too faceless if they refused on the spot? !

As a result, the young woman nodded directly: "Naturally, I will send a prayer post tomorrow." ”

Shen Shiliu was even more surprised, what kind of god is this?

Jingwen smiled faintly, and then said to Shen Shiliu: "Sister-in-law, I want to walk home to relax, I don't want to take a carriage." ”

"Okay, then tell the coachman to go back first, and we'll go back." Shen Shiliu smiled with the young woman, and went directly to find his carriage.

Walking on the road, Shen Shiliu asked Jingwen: "Just now I was afraid that we would invite people to come, but they would refuse directly!" ”

"The lady and the young lady she brought are all dressed in brocade silk, the color is simple, and they are generally bookish and like to wear, because they are low-key and unassuming, so according to my estimate, this lady should also be from the civil official family, you are not in the middle, and the rest of the ladies are not very enthusiastic with their families, so I guess it should be a low official position, or a new entry into Kyoto City!" After Jingwen finished explaining, Shen Shiliu said directly: "Sister, when you go back, you must hand over your unique skill to your sister-in-law!" Now she looks at Jingwen like a detective, nuanced and well-informed!

The two staggered home, it happened to be noon, Du Niangzi heard Xiao Tie say that Shen Shimei and the two were back, so she directly took Yin Qingqing to Shen Shimei to ask about the situation.

"Someone will come tomorrow, let's get ready at home." Shen Shiliu said that this was the first time they had a formal banquet at home since they came to Kyoto City.

Du Niangzi nodded and said: "After a while, the notice will be pasted again, and it will be closed tomorrow, but it will always be closed like this, and the guests will not come after a long time." ”

Shen Shiliu said: "It's okay, I'm going to find someone to replace me." ”

Du Niangzi was curious: "Who is coming?" ”

Shen Shiliu said what he said to Xiao Zhi today, and Du Niangzi was surprised: "Can it be done?" He's not going to go back, is he? ”

Shen Shiliu smiled: "Unless they don't want the face of the Luhou Mansion!" "The people of Kyoto Castle sometimes live with a face, and the face is more important than anything else.

After Shen Shiliu finished speaking, he looked at Yin Qingqing: "My cousin will come with me when I come tomorrow." ”

Yin Qingqing was a little timid, she had never been to Kyoto City before, she had never seen anything in the world, she was afraid of being embarrassed tomorrow.

"Me? Don't be, I'm afraid I'll embarrass my sister-in-law. Yin Qingqing said.

Shen Shiliu said directly: "Don't say anything like this in the future, since you are here, you are the people of this family, what is not ashamed, count up a few generations, everyone estimates that there is no difference, meet these people more in the future, just get by on the big side, you will also marry in the future, you can't be afraid of anything!" ”

Du Niangzi nodded: "Your sister-in-law is right, you will come tomorrow, choose clothes tonight, and wear the new sets that I just made for you a few days ago." "Yin Qingqing looks good, but he is always timid, which invisibly lacks a little bearing.

Shen Shiliu sighed and said, "I will also go back to prepare and prepare, and I will be entertained in the main hall tomorrow, but this house looks big, and compared with others, it is much inferior." "The house they live in now can only be said to be big, and there are no pavilions, rockeries, and flowing water.

In the evening, Du Xuanmo listened to Shen Shimei's words, and said: "There are many new officials in Beijing, I really don't know which one you are talking about." "Because of the prince's rebellion, the court has changed blood, and there have been many new faces in Kyoto City, and now they have not figured out all the foundations.

Shen Shiliu said: "Tomorrow people will come, and then we will know." ”

Du Xuanmo nodded: "If it's a new person in Beijing, it's not a big problem." "There are still few people standing in line, he wants to follow the old path of Liang Zhengxin, and it is time to cultivate some usable people.

The next day, when Shen Shiliu received the greeting post sent by Xiao Tie, he knew that it was the left temple of Dali Temple, the official of the sixth grade.

"Zheng Liupin, Tang Anzhi, is Dali Temple Cheng the case?" Shen Shiliu said.

Du Xuanmo was promoted to the servant of the Ministry of Officials, and he was regarded as a "deputy minister", which was much higher than that of Dali Temple. Generally speaking, she was considered high at yesterday's tea party just by looking at her identity, but everyone didn't know it. However, this lady of the temple promised so happily yesterday, it is estimated that she still knows a thing or two, and she also has ideas for wanting to come to the tea party.

Shen Shiliu went to the door to greet people, because he was in his own house today, it was not good to dress like a nouveau riche, so he was dressed in plain satin clothes, and he looked a little affinity.

"Mrs. Du." As soon as Mrs. Tang came in, she leaned over gently, followed by yesterday's little girl.

"Mrs. Tang is polite, please sit inside." Shen Shiliu led people to the main hall, at this time Du Niangzi and Yin Qingqing had already arrived, Jingwen had already sent someone to inform her, and Shen Shiliu pulled Mrs. Tang to introduce the people in the family first.

After all the introductions, Shen Shiliu knew that Mrs. Tang's maiden name was Lin, and the sister-in-law behind her was called Tang Si, who was ten years old.

"Mrs. Tang just entered the capital with Lord Tang? Listening to the accent is a bit of Jiangnan. Shen Shiliu said, just listening to the accent, it is similar to Anyang County.

Mrs. Tang nodded: "It used to be in Fuyang County. ”

As soon as he heard Fuyang County, Shen Shiliu nodded, Fuyang County and Anyang County are really not too far away, and it is estimated that there are three counties in the middle, no wonder the accent is a bit similar.

"We came from Anyang County, and we can be regarded as fellow villagers." Shen Shiliu said.

Mrs. Tang smiled lightly: "I heard of Lord Du's name when I was in Fuyang County before, and now I can meet in Kyoto City, and it is really fateful." ”

Shen Shiliu smiled, feeling very smooth in his heart, this Mrs. Tang is also a delicate person.
