Although Zhuangzi in the suburbs is not big, it has all internal organs, and the management is very good. Everything is in good order, surrounded by trees, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. Almost as soon as Shen Jingshu came here, she fell in love with this place.
It would be good to come and sit often when you have time in the future. The scenery here is indeed excellent. Compared with the bustling city, this place is much quieter, which made her whole heart feel more peaceful.
After walking around for a few times, Shen Jingshu basically passed Zhuangzi, and originally wanted to go outside to see the farmers, but it was almost lunch time, and Shen Jingshu planned to rest for a while before going.
After tidying up, the family sat down to have a meal together. The food on the Zhuangzi was not very good, but it was not bad either. It was very delicate farm food. Compared with the taste at home, Shen Jingshu felt that the taste was closer to real.
"Master, madam, do these dishes suit your tastes? Do you want to change them?" Steward Quan is very careful in his work. He has inquired about the preferences of several masters in advance, and the dishes he makes are also very good and used They are all ingredients from Zhuangzi, and they taste very good.
"Guan Quan has worked hard, this tastes very good." Although the ingredients are simple and not as refined as those at home, the taste is very good.
It seems that Guan Quan is very troublesome.
"Then master, how about doing the same from now on?"
"Well, very good, you arrange it."
"Does the master like wild game? If you like it, I will send someone to go to the mountain to find some. There are some fresh food in this village. If the master likes it, I will ask people to prepare more!" Seeing that Shen Wenhua was satisfied, Guan Shi felt relieved. Although this Zhuangzi is rich, it can't be compared to the city, and the food is definitely not comparable, so he spent a lot of time thinking, the exquisiteness can't be compared, so the taste and characteristics are compared.
The farmhouse flavor is actually very good. He stayed here for a long time and fell in love with the life here.
It is quiet, beautiful, and has a lot of mountain flavors. There is no restraint, and it is much more free than working as an errand in the house.
"The wild game is pretty good, and it's good to have some. Just be careful and don't cause any accidents." Shen Wenhua has no objection to coming to Zhuangzi and eating some fresh food, but the most important thing is to be safe in life.
"Master, don't worry, there are several hunters in this village, what does the master want to eat, just tell me, I will explain to the hunter, and he will naturally prepare it!"
"Eat whatever you have, just do whatever you want. We are here to rest in Zhuangzi, so we don't have to make everything too delicate, just follow the usual ones." After getting used to the dishes at home, Shen Wenhua felt that when he came here again It's very good, and I don't want Guanshi Quan to do anything specially because of their arrival.
"Yes, master, it's not necessary for the servant, the servant will go and order now, master and madam, do you want to rest for a while?" The boat and the carriage were exhausted, and they also sat in the carriage for almost two hours, and their faces were tired.
"Well, let's take a rest after walking for a while to digest food. Just ask someone to prepare."
"Master, don't worry, everything is ready, it's brand new, and the house has been cleaned."
"Okay!" A few people finished their lunch and asked them to clean up. After walking around, they each went to rest. Shen Jingshu also felt a little tired, so she went to rest obediently. When I woke up, I just hurried to the surroundings to be quiet, and almost didn't speak, it seemed that I was afraid of disturbing her. Shen Jingshu saw that the sunshine outside was good, so she decided to go for a walk, "Chunnuan, clean up, let's go outside and have a look!" It was the first time she came to Zhuangzi, Shen Jingshu was curious, and really wanted to take a good look at it.
"Miss, wait a moment, wash your face first!"
"Got it!" Shen Jingshu packed up and took Chun Xiao out. This time when she went out, Shen Jingshu also brought Yao Nanny and Chun Xiao, and the rest stayed at home for convenience, otherwise the whole family Coming here is also troublesome.
…
"Miss, the scenery on this village is pretty good. I think it looks better than the courtyards in other places!" Chun Xiao also spoke the truth. Most of the courtyards in the house are carefully arranged. The scenery, on the contrary, seems to be a little more blunt.
"It's really beautiful. When I have time in the future, I will often ask my parents to take us here, especially in summer. I think it's a good place to go!" The village is very cool, and there are a lot of bamboos. Shen Jingshu thought it was cool .
"Hehe, the master loves the eldest lady so much, he definitely agrees!"
"By the way, Chunxiao, let's go, let's dig bamboo shoots?" Thinking of bamboo shoots, Shen Jingshu immediately drools. The fried meat with bamboo shoots tastes good, especially the fresh bamboo shoots in this village, they must have a special taste.
"But miss, isn't this bad? It will stain the clothes."
"It's okay, let's try something new, just be careful, let's go, prepare something, and let Cherry take us there!" Shen Jingshu is also a temperament that says it and does it. Thinking of this, she pulled Chun Xiao to call The cherries are gone. Cherry didn't expect Shen Jingshu to dig bamboo shoots by herself, and immediately became anxious, "Miss, if you want to eat bamboo shoots, just let the servants go. There are many bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest in front, which are very tender and delicious. The servant girl will go dig some for you later. Miss, you'd better not go, so as not to get hurt." What is Shen Jingshu's identity? Where are the people who do these jobs? Cherry naturally didn't dare to take Shen Jingshu there.
"It doesn't matter, I want to dig it myself and feel it. Cherry, you can take me there!" The bamboo forest in front is very deep, and Shen Jingshu doesn't know it very well, so naturally she didn't dare to go there easily.
"But it won't be good if the miss gets hurt. Bamboo shoots hurt your hands, so the miss should not go."
"Let's go, Cherry, I'll take me there, but don't say anything!" He ordered directly, and it was hard for Cherry to say anything at the moment, so he had to take Shen Jingshu with him, "Miss, do you want to talk to the master about this matter?" Speak to the lady?"
"It's okay, we'll be back soon, parents are still resting, so don't disturb them." Tell them that it's a question of whether she can go or not, Shen Jingshu is not that stupid!
"Let's go, let's dig bamboo shoots!" Pulling Cherry and leaving, Cherry couldn't help but say "no", Cherry was helpless, and was a little worried that she would be punished later, but she took special care of Shen Jingshu along the way, for fear that there would be something wrong with Shen Jingshu. What, she will be scolded by then.
The eldest lady in this city is really noble. Look at that aura, she has never seen it in her life, and that dress, that appearance, she is really a fairy! Such a young lady, she had to take good care of her, otherwise it would be bad if something happened.
The three of them came to the bamboo grove, Yingying was afraid of Shen Jingshu, so she walked in front, "Miss, be careful, there will be some bugs in here, the eldest lady saw it, don't be afraid."
"Hmm..." Shen Jingshu was a little scared when she heard the insects, and felt her hairs stand on end, but she still held back.
"The bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest here are the most delicious. They are not big now, but very delicate. Miss, come with me!" Not daring to go too deep, Cherry planned to drag Shen Jingshu to dig some casually. Anyway, there are a lot of bamboo shoots here, so there is no shortage.
"Okay!" I didn't understand anything, Shen Jingshu of course listened to Cherry, and a few people found a place and started digging bamboo shoots. Although the cherries are still young, they often do farm work. Of course, Shen Jingshu and Chun Xiao are familiar with the way. They have never done it before. They have dug several cherries, and they are still digging one carefully. , looking at the cherry couldn't help laughing, "Miss, this one has to be dug bigger and deeper, otherwise there won't be many bamboo shoots."
"Well, I get it, Cherry, you are amazing!" Looking at Cherry's agile look, and then looking at herself, Shen Jingshu felt that she was quite useless.
She is a daughter of a thousand gold who does not touch Yang Chunshui, she is really no better than a peasant girl, look at others, then look at herself, and Chunxiao, Shen Jingshu suddenly understands why some people rack their brains I want to go to someone's house to do something.
Indeed, in this rural area, you have to do everything by yourself, and it is indeed hard work for many years. The maids around me don't have to do rough work, and they only need to take care of her daily life, why is it so hard? The life of maids from rich families is better than that of daughters from small families. Of course, many people are willing to stay in rich families as slaves, maidservants, or even concubines.
"Miss, the maidservant often sits, the lady is delicate and expensive, let's take a rest first, let the maidservant come, it will be fine soon." To Shen Jingshu's praise, Cherry just smiled and didn't say much, But the movement of the hands is a little faster.
"No, I have to do something myself!" Since it was proposed by herself, Shen Jingshu did not give up easily. In the end, a few were dug out, and finally the cherries were almost ready, so they nodded, "Miss, there are already a lot, and we can't finish eating any more. Miss, let's go back, otherwise the master and madam should be worried." Cherry He didn't dare to take Shen Jingshu out for too long, because he was afraid of trouble.
"Okay, let's go back!" Seeing that there were enough bamboo shoots in the basket, they might not be able to eat them all today, and Shen Jingshu didn't want to spoil the bamboo shoots anymore, so they went back with a smile on their faces
"Hehe, miss, please slow down, look at your clothes and hair are messed up, I will fix it for you!"
"It's okay, let's go back!"
"Miss, your shoes are stained with mud. There is a stream in front of you. Why don't we go wash them?" Cherry was really worried that Shen Jingshu would be held accountable if she went back in such a state of embarrassment! She can let Shen Jingshu wash up, of course she wants it.
"Well, okay, it's good to go wash it, but I just feel that my hands are hairy and uncomfortable!"
"The shells on the outside of the bamboo shoots are a bit hairy, and the eldest lady's hands are so delicate, she must feel uncomfortable, so I should wash them quickly!" Hearing Shen Jingshu's words, Cherry was also nervous, and took Shen Jingshu to the river. Go, Shen Jingshu smiled, looking at the dirt on her shoes, it was really the first time that it was so dirty!
But she is very happy today, and she hasn't felt this kind of joy for a long time. Since she was reborn, she has taken every step of the way to protect her parents and this family. She has hidden her temper, just for fear of trouble. But this time is a rare opportunity to let her do what she likes, which is really good!
"Miss, the creek is just ahead, it's a little slippery here, be careful, miss!"
"Okay!" Looking at the clear stream, Shen Jingshu walked over to pick up a little and began to wash her hands, feeling a burst of coolness immediately, "It's so comfortable! The water is so clear, and the fish in it can be seen, but it's a pity, I Nothing, otherwise you can bring some fish back!"
"Does Missy like to eat fish?"
"Well, the taste is very good. Looking at these fish, I think the taste is also very good, but it's a pity..." Sighing, Shen Jingshu didn't think she had the ability to get this fish. Although the stream is not deep, it is also not shallow. With my small body, I still don't have to worry about it.
"If the young miss likes it, the servant can try it, and it will be no problem to bring back a few fish!" Cherry has always lived here, and of course Cherry has mastered certain skills. It's not easy to eat meat in the countryside, and I don't eat meat casually when I have nothing to do at home. But this fish can be found in the stream, and the meat is very delicious, everyone likes to eat it very much.
"Really? Cherry you can?"
"Slaves can try it!" Looking around, Cherry found some poles, rolled up her trouser legs and went down the river. The river is still a bit cold this spring. Shen Jingshu saw it and was a little worried, "Cherry, still Forget it, the water is cold, it won’t be good if you catch a cold.”
"It's all right, miss, the slaves often come here to fish, you wait, but the fish I'm afraid the slaves are not big."
"It's okay, it's okay even if it doesn't, I'm just saying it casually, don't take it seriously!" If I had known it, I wouldn't have said this, and it made Cherry's feet cold, what if I got sick
"Miss, don't worry, this servant is in good health, nothing will happen, just wait, just stand there and don't talk!" Standing quietly in the water, Cherry didn't have any tools, of course she used the simplest The method is to drive the fish to the corner with a bamboo pole, and Cherry stands there, carefully preparing to catch the fish with his small hands!
"That's good, Cherry, it's almost here..." Looking at Cherry nervously, Shen Jingshu was still skeptical that Cherry could catch fish, but she was so serious about Cherry, Shen Jingshu didn't bother, just watched quietly Seeing that the cherry was about to be caught, Shen Jingshu also became a little nervous, "Be careful..."
Cherry heard Shen Jingshu's words, she didn't have the energy to speak at the moment, not to mention the fish was startled when she said it, Cherry just smiled, leaned over carefully, grabbed it suddenly, and sure enough, she caught it!
"Haha, I caught it, I caught it, I really caught it, show me quickly, this fish seems to be quite big!"
"About a catty or so, it's a bit smaller, but a few more will be fine, miss!" Continued to bend over, Cherry was very patient, but I don't know if the fish were startled or what Yes, the cherries have not been caught for a long time. The stream in spring is still cool. When the wind blows, although there is sunshine, Shen Jingshu also feels cold, and she can't bear it anymore, "Cherry, get up, don't grab it, this one is enough, go back and pick it up." Just a soup, I don't like fish that much!" Although she likes to eat it very much, Shen Jingshu will never say it at this moment.
Cherry was there to make her happy, she knew, but she didn't want Cherry to get sick because she told her.
"Miss, it seems that this servant is out of luck, and the fish is not coming to this servant!" Indeed, she felt a little cold, seeing Shen Jingshu's serious expression, Cherry felt a little warmth in her heart, and she didn't say anything again. Persevere, and walk slowly. It's just that there are too many stones in the stream. She had stood for a long time just now, and her feet were a little numb. Now she was a little unstable when she moved, and she was about to fall.
"Be careful!" Shen Jingshu subconsciously pulled the other party, but she was pulled into the water by the other party instead. She was young, and she was a little unstable for a while, and suddenly she sat in the water.
It's so cold. Shen Jingshu's first feeling was cold. Before she could react, she heard Cherry and Chunxiao's crying, "Miss, do you have anything to do? Don't scare the slaves, Miss, hurry up!" stand up!"
"I, I'm fine!" Smiling, Shen Jingshu felt some pain in her ankle, as if she had sprained her foot, but Shen Jingshu didn't want to worry the two of them, so she pretended to be indifferent.
"Miss, get up quickly, and this servant will pull you up!" Unexpectedly, Shen Jingshu fell into the water in order to save herself, Cherry felt very embarrassed, "Miss, are you really okay? But you fell? Is it cold? "After speaking, I wanted to put my coat on Shen Jingshu, but I was afraid that Shen Jingshu would dislike her, so I was in a dilemma.
"I'm fine, don't worry, I just wet my clothes, let's go back quickly!" Although I am in good health, but I am not resistant to the cold, so I went back and changed my clothes, taking a hot bath is the real thing!
"Okay!" Yingying and Chunxiao were also anxious, pulling Shen Jingshu back and walking back. Seeing that both of them had forgotten something, Shen Jingshu couldn't help but feel a little helpless, "Don't forget that there are still fish and bamboo shoots. Today's hard work can't be done." It's wasted!" Otherwise, her injury would not be worth it!
"Miss is still thinking about this. Your body is important. You should go back quickly, lest you catch a cold!"
"Well, I got it!" After walking a few steps, Shen Jingshu only felt pain in her ankle. Chun Xiao was careful, and soon found out that something was wrong with Shen Jingshu, "Missy, is she hurt?"
"Hehe, I seem to have sprained my ankle." Even if she didn't tell her, Chun Xiao would still find out later, and now Shen Jingshu didn't hide it.
"Miss, are you trying to scare the servants to death? Why didn't you say anything when you were hurt?" Hearing that Shen Jingshu was hurt, Chunxiao subconsciously wanted to go and see, and she couldn't help but blame Cherry. I was injured, and immediately became anxious, "Miss, are you okay? How can you get hurt because of the servant? The servant, the servant is not worth it, Miss, don't scare the servant!" Shen Jingshu risked falling just now Cherry was very moved to save her in danger. Now that she heard that Shen Jingshu was injured, she felt very guilty! The circles of her eyes were red, and she felt that apart from her parents, it was Shen Jingshu who treated her best.
"Hey, I'm fine, don't worry, it's just that my foot hurts and it's hard to walk." With a sprained foot, it's better not to walk with it. Shen Jingshu has studied medicine for so long, and she has some common sense. It's just that she didn't think it was serious just now, but she didn't expect it to be so painful now.
It seems that it is probably going to be swollen, and I can't play well these days, what a pity.
"Maidservant, please carry you back, the eldest lady has to change into this outfit quickly!" It doesn't matter to me, but the person in front of me can't tolerate the slightest mistake!
"But I'm heavy, can you carry it?" Although Cherry was bigger than her, she looked thin and weak, and Shen Jingshu was very worried.
"Don't worry, miss, this servant has strength!" How can a person who works all year round have no strength? Cherry carried Shen Jingshu on her back without saying a word and walked back. Chunxiao saw that Cherry blamed herself so much at this moment, so she didn't say anything, but just followed back.
…
But at this moment, Shan Yuerong didn't know that her daughter was injured, she just thought that Shen Jingshu was going out to play, but when she saw Cherry came back with Shen Jingshu on her back, she was frightened, "Shu'er, what's wrong? But she was injured? Wet?" Seeing Shen Jingshu's distressed face, with mud on her feet, Shan Banyan didn't know what to say, worrying that she had lost her mind, so how could she care about other things
"Mom, I'm fine, I just accidentally fell into the water, nothing serious!"
"You, why did you just go out like this? You girl, it's really worrying!" Seeing that her daughter looked good, Shan Banyan only recovered now, checked Shen Jingshu carefully, and felt relieved "Why are you in such a mess?"
"Mom, can we talk about this later? I feel a little cold now. I'll take a hot bath and change my clothes so as not to catch a cold."
"That's right, come here, prepare hot water for the eldest lady to take a bath first, and make ginger soup, and find a doctor!" Shan Banyan hurriedly arranged for someone to bring Shen Jingshu into the room, and now she remembered to Invite a doctor, suddenly a little confused, "Guan Quan, which doctor is good around here? Go and ask him to come over!"
"Yes, ma'am!" Steward Quan quickly invited a doctor to examine Shen Jingshu. Except for her sprained ankle, she was fine. Shen Jingshu took a hot bath, drank ginger soup, and let Cherry and Chunxiao drink it. Only then did I fall asleep, and when I woke up, I didn't feel any discomfort, and Shen Jingshu felt relieved.
It seems that studying medicine is indeed very good. If it were before, she would have fallen ill a long time ago. Fortunately, I have been paying attention to the maintenance of my body these days, and her body is much better than before.
"Miss, are you awake? But do you feel uncomfortable?" Chun Xiao waited for a long time, fearing that Shen Jingshu would fall ill, and seeing that Shen Jingshu woke up now, she was finally relieved.
"Don't worry, I'm fine!"
"The servant girl will tell Madam now!"
