Shen Yuechen has never liked to waste, four dishes and one soup per meal, and occasionally, two more seasonal side dishes will be neat.

Although for the sake of the body, you need to take a lot of supplements, and you can't slack off, but people who are weak should not be strong, and they can't restrain but have more dry heat.

The kitchen matter, with Wu's mother here, will naturally be arranged properly. As for the previous deficit in the kitchen account, there is no need to investigate it for the time being, just wait for the end of the month to settle down.

The sun is about to set in the west, and the smell of rice wafts in the courtyard.

While there was still some time before dinner, Shen Yuechen called Chun Ming Cuixin to come in and pack up her things. They packed all of Zhu Jintang's clothes, from the inside to the outside, from top to bottom, each of them was neatly folded, and then they were arranged and packed in a set.

This is the first time that Shen Yuechen has packed her luggage for Zhu Jintang, although she has no clue, but in line with the principle of comfort and practicality, she still prepared as many clothes, shoes and socks as possible for a change of clothes, as well as a cloak and hat to protect from the wind and rain, and then there are some bits and pieces of small things, such as peppermint oil, Coptis supernatant pills, handkerchiefs, green salt, toothbrushes, etc. She has carefully screened several times, only picked the most practical things, and finally packed up three burdens, two large and one small.

Today, Zhu Jintang did not come back before dinner, Shen Yuechen ate alone, rested for a while, and recuperated some spirits before going to greet the elders according to the hour. After coming back, Zhu Jintang still didn't return, so she had to cheer up, sit at the table with her head up, and continue to wait with a tired expression. Finally, before the courtyard gate was locked, Zhu Jintang, who was dressed in a hazy moonlight, was waited for back.

Because he had to clean up the mess and settle the account books for Zhu An's bastard boy, Zhu Rong spent most of the day working in the account room, and he couldn't follow Zhu Jintang out to do things in person. Without him, Zhu Jintang was alone at the wine table, which inevitably suffered a little, and he ate more wine than usual.

He took Shen Yuechen's tea and drank it all, only to feel a lot more comfortable, and his spirit was purified all of a sudden.

Chun Ming then walked in with a plate of peeled apples. "The fruit is chilled, cold, and very refreshing, please taste it for uncle and grandmother."

Although the fresh fruit was good, Zhu Jintang didn't touch it, only leaned on the back of the chair with his eyes closed, raised his hand to support his forehead, and tapped it lightly from time to time, looking very tired.

Seeing this, Shen Yuechen got up and walked around behind him, stretched out his hand to rub his temples, and said softly: "The concubine rubs the uncle's head to relieve his fatigue." ”

Zhu Jintang immediately asked, "What's going on in the courtyard?" ”

Shen Yuechen paused slightly, and only said: "Mama Li is gone, and Steward Zhu has also been kicked out." The concubine herself asked the old lady for an errand to temporarily take charge of the affairs of this courtyard for a month. When she said this, she lowered her eyes and glanced at the look on Zhu Jintang's face, and continued: "The concubine is a little impatient this time...... Mama Li is the one who has always taken care of the uncle, and it's a pity that it's gone. ”

Zhu Jintang is indifferent and restrained by nature, and his heart is hard-hearted, and he rarely sympathizes with others, not to mention that Mama Li relies on the old and sells the old, and suffers from herself. Therefore, when he heard this, he just shook his head lightly, and said with a calm face: "Although she took care of me to grow up, she is just a subordinate after all, and there is nothing to be sorry for." ”

When Shen Yuechen heard this, he didn't make a sound, lowered his eyes slightly, and after a while, he said lightly: "Uncle, it's not too early, let's rest early." ”

The ancients used to go to bed early, and this time, the hour was already very late. Xu Yes, because of the wine, the two of them lay down for a while, and Shen Yuechen heard the sound of breathing in the people around him.

Shen Yuechen was also relieved, turned over slightly, and quietly looked at his sleeping face through the moonlight outside the window.

He has an angular face, thick eyebrows, thin lips, very good-looking, Shen Yuechen couldn't help but look at it twice for a while, I remember that when I used to read books, I read that the man with thin lips in the book was the most cold-tempered person......

Vaguely, a bitter feeling quietly welled up in my heart. She silently withdrew her gaze, the corners of her mouth hooked into a wry smile.

Whether he is infatuated or infatuated, why should he care, he is destined to be entangled with him in this life, and his life will always go on. It's just that I don't know what the long road ahead will look like.

It's a blessing or a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided. After all, she is a mortal body, and she has no good ability to predict the future and turn evil into good fortune. Only by being cautious and taking one step and thinking three steps can we be safer......

Because he was thinking about things in his heart and thinking about the hour, before the sky was white, Shen Yuechen automatically woke up.

Chun Ming woke her up and hurriedly asked Cuixin to go to the kitchen to urge her to eat.

Today's breakfast is prepared for the first time according to the new rules set by Shen Yuechen, there are fine porridge and pasta snacks everywhere in each room, as well as a few exquisite side dishes to accompany the meal, only Aunt Cao has an extra goat milk and xiaolongbao, all of which are specially given to Zhu Ying.

Wu Ma's craftsmanship is exquisite, and although the dishes are simplified, each food is full of color, flavor, and taste, and is very exquisite.

Zhu Jintang was too tired last night to find the extra baggage in the house. After waking up, I saw it, and I couldn't help frowning slightly: "These are all prepared by you?" ”

Shen Yuechen was sitting in front of the mirror combing her hair, turned around and replied, "Well, the concubine was cleaned up last night, uncle, do you need anything to make up?" ”

Zhu Jintang shook his head silently, what else could he lack with such a big bag and small locks?

Every time I go out, I travel lightly, and I never bring much clothes and luggage, but this time...... He opened the smallest of them and looked at them, but saw that there were many things in large and small boxes, and many pills and medicinal powders wrapped in mulberry paper, and the names of the medicines were clearly written on them with a brush.

Zhu Jintang was slightly stunned, then picked up a pack and looked carefully, only to see that the hairpin flower on it was neatly written "Huoxiang Zhengqi Pill", and there was a slightly smaller line of words next to it, "Take it twice a day, with warm water".

Zhu Jintang raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Do you need all these things?" ”

Shen Yuechen hurriedly nodded vigorously: "You can use it, you can use it." Uncle is out of the house, not afraid of 10,000 just in case, the weather of the autumn tiger, the sun is more poisonous, in case there is really something uncomfortable, there is medicine on the body, it is always good. When she said this, she got up and walked to Zhu Jintang, and said carefully: "Although there are some trivial things in this bag, everything can be used. Uncle, you see, this is Huoluo Dan, this is Qingxin Pill, this is Borneol, each of which is wrapped in a piece of paper, and there are usage and eating methods on it. ”

Zhu Jintang saw that she was right, but he only felt that he was listening to his ears, and frowned helplessly.

He just went to the capital, back and forth, at most for a month, there was a post house on the road, and his aunt arranged in the capital, so naturally there was nothing missing.

However, it is really a shame that she has such patience and has put in so much effort to prepare so much.

Zhu Jintang now understands a little bit why the old lady likes her so much, and let her study housework within a month of entering the door.

Seeing that she was so serious, Zhu Jintang didn't care about the others, and said lightly: "Then take it all."

Shen Yuechen saw that he agreed, smiled slightly, and advised: "Uncle bring everything you should bring, and the concubine will be solid in body and mind." Uncle remember to take care of your body, don't be careless. ”

Zhu Jintang nodded, reached out and stroked her long hair, turned around and instructed Chun Ming, "Hurry up and comb your young lady's hair." ”

Chun Ming hurriedly agreed, and immediately helped Shen Yuechen to sit down, picked up a wooden comb and gently combed her hair.

Shen Yuechen's long hair was black and soft, and it felt like silk satin, and Chun Ming's hands were also skillful, coiling her long black hair into an elegant ingot. "Miss, which hairpin do you want to wear today?"

Shen Yuechen lowered her head and chosen, took a silver-gilded butterfly hairpin, and asked her to put it on for herself.

Shen Yuechen sat in front of the mirror to make up, and Zhu Jintang sat at the table eating tea, so she looked at her makeup and dressing up in her eyes. I saw that she put her little face in front of the mirror and turned to the left and right slightly, took a closer look, and made sure that her appearance was perfect, before she smiled with satisfaction.

Shen Yuechen raised his eyes, looked at his face that was looking at him, and quickly turned around, standing up generously and letting him look at the front.

"What does Uncle think?"

Zhu Jintang just nodded slightly, "Not bad." ”

He has always been concise and to the point, and he rarely praises others, and a "good" is already a good meaning.

Shen Yuechen blushed slightly when she heard this.

By the end of the hour, breakfast was already in the house.

Shen Yuechen's house was set up, and several other aunts were also served there.

Qin Taoxi glanced at the porridge and rice on the table, and said casually: "Why don't the people in the kitchen have a memory?" I don't like to drink porridge, so let them remake it and bring me a bowl of chicken soup and bamboo shoots. ”

When the maid orchid heard this, she hurriedly explained: "Miss, grandma has set a new rule, from now on, everyone in every room will eat the same meal, the dishes will be simple, no waste is allowed, and no private kitchen is allowed." ”

When Qin Taoxi heard this, he was immediately unhappy, and immediately threw the tea bowl in his hand out.

The tea bowl shattered in response, and Orchid anxiously persuaded: "My good lady, you can stop for two days." You are also the eldest lady of the Qin family, you are temperamental at every turn, and you drop things, where is the appearance of a lady? ”

Lan Hua was afraid that her fall would alarm the other people in the courtyard, so she hurriedly opened the curtain and looked out, only to take a look, she saw two little maids coming up and asking, "Sister Lanhua, what's wrong with Aunt Qin?" ”

Orchid hurriedly smiled and covered up: "It's okay, it's okay, it's my own hand that slipped for a while, and accidentally broke a tea bowl, it's not in the way, you can water the flowers." ”

Orchid finally sent people away, and when she returned to the house, she was scolded by Qin Taoxi: "Whose maid are you?" Now, you dare to arrange my no-do in front of me! How? Do you want to climb other high branches? ”
