The carriage travels to the countryside, which is lined with farmland and cottages, and it is early autumn, and men and women are working in the fields. The peasant women wore veils on their heads, were barefoot, and some rolled up their trouser legs so that the mud would not stain their clothes.

It seems that the so-called rules of etiquette and religion are all the stuff of the rich, and for those who have difficulty even filling their stomachs, everything else is a floating cloud except for survival.

Shen Yiyi leaned against the car window, holding her cheeks, looking a little distracted.

Little Pepper leaned over, half curious and half complaining: "Miss, what's so nice about this." ”

"It's pretty." Shen Yiyi smiled and rubbed her hair, "The food we use for cooking is what they grow." If you don't have good quality ingredients, no matter how good your cooking skills are, you can only sigh with admiration, right? ”..

Only those who have experienced hormone meat, genetically modified vegetables and poisoned rice understand how important ingredients are, but I don't know if the pepper can grasp it.

Little Pepper really got interested: "No matter how important the ingredients are, you can't see any tricks when you sit in the carriage." ”

"Are you bored?" Shen Yiyi saw through her thoughts at a glance, and pointed out the car window, "You go to talk to Wang Qing." ”

"I don't want it!" Little Pepper flatly refused, "He's too noisy!" ”

Wang Qing heard it by the window and was about to express his objection, but was slapped away by Little Pepper.

Shen Yiyi had no choice but to turn around, sit with her back against the wall of the car, and said, "Then I'll talk to you." Tell me, who are the people in the Shen family who used to bully me? ”

In fact, she has no interest in these at all, anyway, she doesn't plan to stay in the Shen family for a long time, it is best to solve it in three days, and then travel around the country.

She chatted casually, but Little Pepper became interested, and Balabala talked a lot.

Shen Yiyi listened for a while and had a preliminary understanding of the general situation of the Shen family.

The old lady of the Shen family is still alive, and the old lady has passed away. There are a total of five rooms at the bottom, and "Shen Yiyi" her father is a big house.

Before "Shen Yiyi" eloped, because she was in charge of the Shen family's restaurant in the capital, she was not at home all the year round, and she had little contact with the Shen family, but from the second room to the fifth room, no one did not stare at the several restaurants in her hands. But now these restaurants have fallen into the hands of Mrs. Shen San, and they have nothing to do with her.

She has already seen several masters of the Shen family, and it is easy to distinguish them, and the treacherous and cunning is the second master; It looks very serious is the third master; The only two masters are the four masters; The temperament is hot and rushes the fifth master.

Among the wives of the Shen family, the third wife is the continuation of the string, and the other wives are the original partners. She has seen the third wife, and her mind is not very good, but the means are not clever, but she doesn't know what her status is in the Shen family.

There are many young masters and ladies of the Shen family, adding up to more than a dozen people, because there are too many people, the old lady is noisy, and has set a rule, usually please be safe, only one young lady is allowed in each room; As for the young masters, just come every three or five times to order a mao, so as not to delay their business.

Therefore, the one who can appear in front of the old lady every day must be the most faceful lady in each room.

Shen Yiyi had already made up her mind, so she listened to what Xiao Pepper said, and she didn't ask if she didn't say it.

Listening to Xiao Pepper chatting along the way, the time passed quickly, and at dusk that day, the noise outside the car suddenly became louder, and Shen Yiyi opened the car window to see that Wuchang Mansion had arrived.

Outside the city gate of Wuchang Mansion, Shen Yiyi insisted on stopping the car and asked Xiao Pepper to explain to the two stewards, two-thirds of the slaves went with her, and one-third of the slaves went to rent a house near Shen's house and settle down on their own.

In order to wait for her, several masters of the Shen family had to stop the car, which made Shen Yiyi strange that they were so arrogant in Hangzhou Mansion, but now that they have reached their own territory, they have become honest and have not dared to say anything to complain.

How did she know that the elders of the Shen family were worried about the shortfall of the three thousand taels of silver, and they didn't have the heart to share it with her for a while.

Shen Yiyi arranged the slaves, and the carriage continued to the west of the city.

The Shen family is worthy of being the richest man in Wuchang Mansion, the house covers an extremely wide area, and the courtyard wall cannot be seen at a glance, but I am afraid that those ordinary eunuchs can't compare.

Shen Yiyi has already learned from Xiao Pepper's mouth that the eldest lord of the Shen family, that is, the father of the deity, has donated an official position with the same knowledge, so in terms of the specifications of the house, he has already broken through the restrictions of ordinary people.

The Shen Mansion covers a wide area, and the front of the door is also extremely open, but probably because there is a special person on duty, the surroundings are quiet and quiet, and you can't see half of the pedestrians.

There was still some way to go before the gate when the carriage suddenly stopped. Shen Yiyi opened the window and looked out, only to see that at the front of the convoy, there was an additional middle-aged man, who looked about fifty years old, with a majestic demeanor, but his hair and beard were already gray.

Second Master Shen, Fourth Master Shen and Fifth Master Shen quickly jumped out of the car and said almost in unison: "Big brother, why did you come out?!" ”

This is the father of "Shen Yiyi", the eldest master of the Shen family? Shen Yiyi didn't rush to get out of the car, and continued to look out through the window.

Master Shen glanced at Shen Er, Shen Si, and Shen Wu, and asked, "Yiyi is back?" ”

Dare to love is here to pick up Shen Yiyi, not for them, Shen Wu is very angry, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Second Master Shen said: "I'm back, in the back car." ”

Fourth Master Shen immediately turned around and shouted: "Yiyi, come down quickly, you see that your father has received the door." ”

Shen Yiyi got out of the car with a little pepper, stepped forward to salute Master Shen, and called, "Father." ”

Master Shen was slightly stunned: "I haven't seen you for a year, and if I am divided, I don't care if I am called father, I am called father instead." ”

Well? The attitude of this father seems to be different from what she thinks. Shen Yiyi was also stunned for a moment, and then changed her words: "Dad." ”

A slight smile appeared on Master Shen's face, and he nodded slightly at her.

Fifth Master Shen felt that this atmosphere was too warm and extremely dissatisfied, pointed to the many slaves next to the car, and said, "Big brother, you see, she still brings so many people when she goes home, is there a shortage of people to serve our Shen family?" ”

Master Shen looked at his hand and asked Shen Yiyi, "These people, did you buy them?" ”

"I bought it." Shen Yiyi replied briefly, "There are also those dart masters, who I also hired." ”

Master Shen nodded and said, "There is no reason for the dart master to enter the house, let people take them to rest." ”

Shen Yiyi glanced at Wang Qing and Cao Lang and agreed.

Master Shen said again: "The male servants are not allowed to enter the inner courtyard, these family members, let people take them to the West Cross Courtyard for settlement." ”

Shen Yiyi glanced at Shen Tao and agreed.

Master Shen said again: "You can take all the maids, but remember to go to the second wife to register and make a register for management." ”

She will leave in a few days, what to register, what to make, but this is a trivial matter, not worth arguing, Shen Yiyi still agreed.

Seeing that they were calmly asking and answering, Fifth Master Shen was anxious: "Big brother, that's it?!" ”
