When Shen Shiliu and Mrs. Tang were chatting, Jingwen finally came over, and Tang Si looked over and talked with Jingwen. Du Niangzi glanced at Yin Qingqing, and only Yin Qingqing didn't want to join the conversation.

"Let's go talk together." Du Niangzi patted Yin Qingqing.

Yin Qingqing gritted her teeth, and in the end, she could only pretend to be enthusiastic and come over to speak, but she only pretended, and she really couldn't say anything.

Shen Shiliu knew from the conversation that this Mrs. Tang had been married to Tang Anzhi for three years, and she had no children so far, and she accepted a concubine in her family a few days ago.

For women, a husband's concubinage is a very hateful thing, and it resonates with women the most. Shen Shiliu watched Mrs. Tang say such exciting news as soon as she came up, wouldn't it be too annoying for her life to be so smooth?

"Madame thinks so much about Lord Tang, and Lord Tang even takes a concubine, which really wastes Madame's hard work." Shen Shiliu said, no wonder it started from meeting Mrs. Tang

Shen Shimei's words, Mrs. Tang sighed: "Three years without children, helpless." ”

Speaking of which, Du Niangzi was a little embarrassed, but she was not so excessive, and now she is just urging and not asking for a concubine......

Shen Shiliu felt that this topic was about to capsize if he continued to talk about it, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Miss Tang is not small, but she has decided on a family matter?" Shen Shiliu asked, the key issue now is to tell Yin Qingqing a good family matter.

Mrs. Tang nodded: "I have already said that I am close, it is a book of the Hanlin Academy, which is much older than Tang Si." ”

Shen Shimei calculated, except for Du Xuanmo, it should be not too young to be able to do a book in the Hanlin Academy, not to mention more than ten years older than Tang Si.

"That's good, going to the Hanlin Academy for a turn is gilded, and there must be a better future out of the Hanlin Academy." Shen Shiliu said that at the beginning, Du Xuanmo was an editor in the Hanlin Academy, and a champion was also an editor, and if he had a reputation and could be gilded in the Hanlin Academy, there must be some ways to do it at home.

Mrs. Tang smiled and nodded: "That's why my family is willing to bow their heads, this sister is very precious." ”

Speaking of this, Shen Shiliu said: "My cousin has just entered Kyoto City, and my family is also thinking about telling me a good family business. ”

Mrs. Tang looked at Yin Qingqing and said, "Miss Biao looks handsome, looks gentle and quiet, she will definitely be able to find a good family affair." ”

Shen Shiliu smiled lightly and said: "My cousin will also live here in the future, the Du family is thin, and my cousin is also a treasure." "Although it is a cousin, but in the Du family, it definitely has weight!

Mrs. Tang smiled and said, "I'll also think about it when I go back, what good talents are there, and I can show my cousin to each other." ”

"That's the work." Shen Shiliu smiled, satisfied in his heart, with the lintel of the Du family now, the daughter is not worried about marrying badly!

When it was almost noon, Shen Shiliu stayed for dinner, and Mrs. Tang heard that it was Shen Shimei who cooked it herself, and there was no surprise, this official wife of the Du family was a chef, and everyone in Kyoto City knew it, and it was nothing new.

Shen Shiliu arranged a table of food in the kitchen, and Mrs. Tang looked at it and said, "Madame's cooking skills really make me ashamed." ”

"Madame is of high birth, she can't be the same as me from a low background, and I didn't think I could marry my father-in-law, a woman can marry well with some kitchen skills." Shen Shiliu said.

Mrs. Tang can understand this, if the daughter of a poor family knows a few crafts, she can indeed make her in-laws look at her.

"But now Madame doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, so why work so hard?" Mrs. Tang asked, her husband is so capable, just enjoy happiness at home!

Shen Shiliu smiled: "I can't be idle, I like to do this, I don't object to it, I'm happy at will." ”

Mrs. Tang is really envious, the height of a woman's background is not a problem, the biggest problem is what position her husband puts herself. Du Xuanmo was able to resist the temptation of so many noble ladies to marry Shen Pomegranate, and she could allow Shen Pomegranate to do what she liked, in her eyes, how lucky Shen Pomegranate was?

"What a blessing Madame!" Mrs. Tang said enviously.

Shen Shiliu pondered that she seemed to be a little showy, in front of a woman whose husband had just taken a concubine, it was really a bit too exciting.

"Madame, this day is the most summer-relieving." Shen Shiliu changed the topic and avoided further embarrassment.

After eating, Mrs. Tang invited Shen Shiliu to go to the house as a guest one day, Shen Shiliu had to respond, and finally entered the circle of noblewomen with so much effort, and she will continue to work hard in the future.

After sending Mrs. Tang and Miss Tang away, Shen Shimei's whole body was about to probe out, except for Jingwen, there was nothing to do, and even Du Niangzi and Yin Qingqing felt very tired.

"It's tiring to talk to these ladies!" Du Niangzi said that she used to think that she was okay, but today she knows her shortcomings.

Yin Qingqing didn't like this kind of party in the first place, so she found a reason to go back to her room to rest first, and Shen Shiliu led Jingwen back to sleep first, which was really troublesome.

In the evening, Du Xuanmo went home and heard Xiao Tie say that Shen Shimei was sleeping, and returned to the room with a wry smile.

Shen Shimei's brows furrowed when he slept, Du Xuanmo was a little distressed, and gently stroked Shen Shimei's frowning brows with his hand.

Shen Shimei slowly opened his eyes and saw that Du Xuanmo was sitting on the bed, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he hugged Du Xuanmo's waist, making Du Xuanmo cry and laugh.

"What's the matter? But today's guests have been wronged? Du Xuanmo asked, and then said, "Then don't entertain guests in the future, there are other ways." "He feels sorry for Shen Shiliu for worrying about this, he hasn't let Shen Shiliu suffer a little grievance, why do others make Shen Shimei so sad?

Shen Shiliu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "People didn't let me be wronged, and they invited me to go to the house one day, just a little tired......"

Du Xuanmo patted Shen Shimei's back: "Then don't entertain either." ”

Shen Shimei directly pinched Du Xuanmo's waist, making Du Xuanmo laugh.

"I'm not a delicate flower, how can I be so brittle?" Shen Shiliu said that the current situation of the Du family is not the time for her to be squeamish.

Du Xuanmo helped Shen Pomegranate up, and said very seriously: "I know that you are not a delicate flower, but I still hope that I can take care of you like a delicate flower, I have always asked you to pay like this, I can't help it!" ”

As soon as Shen Shiliu heard this, he slapped Du Xuanmo on the chest: "Look at what you said, you are more tired than me, and no matter how tired you are to deal with these ladies, it is much easier than you are dealing with those demons and monsters in the court, right?" Don't always feel guilty, you have done a lot, in your words, seeing you so tired alone, I don't want to do nothing, just enjoy your efforts! ”

Du Xuanmo hugged Shen Pomegranate in his arms, Shen Pomegranate can always make him so excited, in his opinion, Shen Pomegranate's body seems to have light, and his eyes can't stand anyone except Shen Pomegranate.

Shen Shimei lay in Du Xuanmo's arms, feeling down-to-earth, and Du Xuanmo could satisfy her with all her attitudes towards life. She likes to do what she likes, and Du Xuanmo doesn't limit her. She hopes that the male protagonist will be outside the female protagonist, and Du Xuanmo will fight the world outside, she only needs to do a good job of logistics, and give Du Xuanmo a harbor when he is tired, hungry and confused, which is enough.

At night, Shen Shiliu lay on the bed and began to reflect on herself, in the past, she had a hard time, and she deducted and searched for the calculation and calculation of spending money, but now it seems that she is too difficult to put on the table. Jingwen knew a lot more than she did at a young age, and she thought it was time for her to transform.

When I got up in the morning, there were already people standing at the door of the restaurant, and Steward Li from Luhou Mansion came with four young people.

"Mrs. Du, these are the people carefully selected by the little marquis, they are absolutely loyal, you can use them with confidence!" Steward Li also spoke politely.

Shen Pomegranate glanced at them all, he was not very old, and he looked at it only eighteen or nineteen.

"Okay, let's stay, I'll teach for ten days first, if you can't learn, you have to let your little marquis come with a new person." As soon as Shen Shiliu's words came out, the expressions on the faces of the four young men also changed.

"Okay, the little one will take his leave first." After Steward Li finished speaking, he left first.

Shen Shiliu looked at the four people who stayed, and all of them were called to the courtyard, and he said that in front of Steward Li just now, just to cheer up these people, don't think that you can mess around if you come here.

"As I said earlier, if you don't behave well within ten days, I'm going to send you back." Shen Pomegranate reminded.

The four young men all nodded, and were sent back to be house slaves, and learned the craft here, and Steward Li said that there was still a lot of money every month, which was much better than doing hard work in the Hou Mansion.

Shen Shiliu saw that the attitude of several people had become sincere, and his heart was also satisfied, for these house slaves, now is an opportunity to change their fate.

"Xiao Tie, take them to familiarize themselves with a kitchen first." Shen Shiliu said that he went back to the room to change his clothes first, and took advantage of the fact that there were not many classes at noon, and taught him to distinguish all the seasonings clearly.

The four people, named Lianggong, Pingzi, Jiahe, and Daming, are all surnamed because they are slaves of the Hou Mansion.

One morning, Shen Shimei was not tired, and after teaching, he said: "I will go through the sieve one by one before dinner, and I must write it down before this, you know?" ”

The four of them all nodded, and then they hurried together, and asked each other if they forgot about it, Shen Shiliu saw that the time was about the same, so he went to the kitchen to clean up first and meet the peak period of lunch eating.

At lunchtime, Shen Shiliu asked Xiao Tie to deliver food to Du Xuanmo, and then taught a few people to turn the spoon, there are not so many pots at home, and the four of them take turns to use the pot to shake the stones, and they usually practice.

Du Niangzi looked at the situation and asked Shen Shimei: "Okay?" ”

"Okay, learning to cook, as long as they are willing to learn it themselves, it's not difficult." Shen Shiliu replied that there must always be a subjective initiative to learn this thing, so she would say scaring words at the beginning, if the four of them are lazy and don't study hard, she is the most tired.
