Chapter 117: Stove to the meeting
In late autumn, the north wind is whining, and it still can't stop a ray of golden morning light, shining on Shen Yiyi's beautiful bronze mirror, reflecting a hazy light.
Cumin opened a new bottle of osmanthus oil, carefully smeared it on Shen Yiyi's long black and smooth hair, and then took the most popular rhino horn comb and combed it one by one.
Today, the first day of October, is a big day to go to the Jin State Mansion to attend the meeting, but you have to dress up the eldest lady beautifully, and you can't let people look down on it.
Little Pepper ran in from outside, her tone full of surprise: "Miss, there is a young lady outside who comes to pick you up, she claims to be the tenth miss of the Jin Mansion." ”..
Miss Ten of the Jin State Mansion, come to pick her up in person? Shen Yiyi was stunned for a moment, and her first reaction was: "Why?" ”
Little Pepper shook her head: "I don't know, the people of the Jin State Mansion, except for Hu Shizi and Miss Hu, we don't know each other." ”
The Miss Hu in her mouth refers to Hu Ying, and Hu Ying is ranked twelve, obviously not the same person as this Miss Ten.
"Then you invite her to the hall for tea, and I'll be right away." Shen Yiyi finished instructing Little Pepper, and asked Cumin to quickly comb her hair. Those who come are guests, and they can't make others wait for a long time.
She stopped dressing up for a moment, and went into the hall, and saw a young lady sitting on a chair, born like a ball of snow, playing with the beads on her wrist in boredom.
Shen Yiyi stepped forward and greeted: "This is Miss Hu Shi?" I was just grooming and keeping you waiting. ”
As if he had been caught as a thief, Hu Qi hurriedly stuffed his wrist beads into his sleeve, raised his face and smiled: "It's me who came early and disturbed Miss Shen's makeup." ”
This Miss Hu Shi's little actions are too cute, right? She must be a favored person at home, otherwise she wouldn't be able to raise this temperament. Shen Yiyi pondered the specific identity of Miss Hu Shi, blessed a blessing, and greeted her.
However, she soon found that it was very unnecessary to ponder this Miss Hu Shi, because Miss Hu Shi opened her mouth and said everything: "My maiden name is Hu Shi, and the prince of Jin Guofu is my eldest brother, I heard that Miss Shen is a good cook, and I want to ask you to cook for my cat, so I came to pick you up early, and I hope you don't blame me for being too abrupt." ”
The first time we met, did you report your name? This Miss Hu Shi didn't mean to look down on people, Shen Yiyi suddenly had a good impression of her: "My name is Shen Yiyi, Miss Ten is polite." ”
Hu Qi smiled at her: "Let's go?" ”
Is this Miss Hu Shi an acute child? Shen Yiyi hurriedly called Shen Yunyun over, let her meet the tenth lady of the Jin State Mansion, and told Hu Qi that this was her third sister and wanted to accompany her to the Jin State Mansion to participate in the stove party.
Hu Yu asked with interest: "Miss Shen San can also cook?" ”
Shen Yunyun shook her head and said embarrassedly, "I won't." ”
At the beginning, it was precisely because the whole Shen family didn't know how to cook, and it was taken care of by others when they opened a restaurant, that Master Shen sent Shen Yiyi to learn to cook, until now, she is the only one in the Shen family who is proficient in cooking.
When Hu Qi heard that Shen Yunyun couldn't cook, she immediately lost interest, but she still let her get into her carriage with Shen Yiyi.
Hu Qi's temperament is very lively, and on the way to Jin Guofu, he kept talking to Shen Yiyi: "My cat is called Tuan Tuan, and she looks beautiful!" ”
"Miss Ten's cat is naturally beautiful." Shen Yiyi smiled and chatted with her.
These words not only complimented her cat, but also complimented her, Hu Yu was embarrassed: "You are the one who is going to cook today, but I asked you to cook for the cat, will you be wronged?" ”
Cooking? Does it mean that she wants to make lily noodles? Shen Yiyi thought about it and said with a smile: "How come, I like cats very much." ”
"You like cats too?" Hu Qi became happy, "I'll bring Tuan Tuan to you later!" ”
"Okay." Shen Yiyi responded to Hu Qi, thinking of the cat she had before, her eyes couldn't help but sour, and she quickly turned her head to look out of the car window.
Hu Yu chattered all the way, and it seemed that the distance was particularly short, and he arrived at the Jin Mansion in a while.
At this time, it was still early, but there were already guests coming to the door, Shen Yiyi didn't know any of them, fortunately, there was Hu Yu to lead the way, she just had to follow.
Hu Shu stood on the high gatehouse and watched Shen Yiyi follow behind Hu Qi and enter the Jin State Mansion.
Song Yan looked at it for a while and asked, "Shizi, in fact, Miss Shen has a carriage, why do you have to let Miss Ten pick her up?" ”
Hu Shu said: "The guests who came today are all young ladies of meritorious families, where can they look down on merchant girls, they are only afraid that they will be too neglectful of Miss Shen." There are ten young ladies to pick her up, they will give some face, even if there are any ugly words, they will hide them in their stomachs, and they will not say it to embarrass Miss Shen. ”
"Shizi is really thoughtful." Songyan is heartfelt.
"I gave her invitation, if she is bullied, won't my kindness become a bad intention?" While speaking, Shen Yiyi's figure had disappeared behind a moon gate, and Hu Shu also turned around and went downstairs.

Shen Yiyi and Shen Yunyun followed behind Hu Qi and walked along the hand-copying verandah. Hu Qi spoke to Shen Yiyi with great interest: "I'll take you directly to the garden, where there is a kitchen, which is specially prepared for today's stove." ”
While talking, the maid hugged a cat, and Hu Yu called "Tuan Tuan", happily took it and showed it to Shen Yiyi.
This cat is snow-white all over, with blue eyes, and it is indeed a beautiful little thing.
Shen Yiyi naturally loves cats, and can't help but reach out and scratch its chin.
Hu Qi hurriedly reminded her: "Tuan Tuan recognizes life, be careful of it-"
Before she finished speaking, she saw Tuan Tuan snoring, jumped into Shen Yiyi's arms, and rubbed her head on her arm.
"Miss Shen, you like to recruit a group like this?" Hu Qi was extremely surprised.
Shen Yiyi was also a little surprised, she was sucking cat physique before she crossed, but she didn't expect it to be like this after crossing.
Because Tuan Tuan likes Shen Yiyi, Hu Qi treats her more and more kindly, and the two of them take the cat, talk and laugh, and go to the garden.
It was late autumn and the weather was cold, but there were both yellow leaves and purple and red in the garden, as if you could see the four seasons when you visited the whole garden.
Bypassing a flower wall, a row of houses with gables appeared, Hu Qi pointed to the row of houses, and said to Shen Yiyi: "Every room here is a kitchen, and they will cook later, right here." ”
As she spoke, she couldn't help laughing: "These daughters in the capital are all like me, where do they know how to cook, I really don't know what my eldest brother thinks." ”
Shen Yiyi didn't know anything about the cooking, she only knew that she was going to make a lily noodle today, and she couldn't tell others that it was Hu Shu's instructions. Since Hu Shu had a request, she didn't inquire, and only listened to Hu Shu quietly.
