Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 183 Letter
But Wen Shu has her own considerations. Although the fat-stealing bird drove those people away today, they must also be hated by them.

If those people knew that this bird was raised by her, they might look for an opportunity to retaliate.And the Fat Stealer is not invincible, it can also be injured, and the most common bow and arrow can shoot it, so she has to guard against it.

And if the group of people thought that the bird popped out of nowhere in a wild forest and lived in nowhere, then they might have forgotten about it except for cursing and sighing inwardly about the bad luck.

I told Mrs. Zhao about my worries, and Mrs. Zhao understood, and immediately promised to keep her mouth shut.

But Wen Shu immediately called the fat-stealing bird down, took out a bowl of stewed rabbit meat from the basket, and told it to leave as soon as it finished eating, and not to appear nearby, especially to guard against people with bows and arrows. If you see it, you must hide far away.

The fat-stealing bird nodded half-understanding, and after eating, it flapped its wings and walked away.

Seeing this, Wen Shu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and together with Mrs. Zhao straightened the overturned tables and chairs in the tea shed, and then cleaned up the blood splattered on the ground.

After doing this, the sun has moved to the center, and there was no one on the quiet official road during this period.

At noon, Wen Shu brought out the portion of stewed rabbit meat left for Mrs. Zhao and her son, and put some pancakes on it. The three of them ate while talking and laughing.

In the next afternoon, I don't know if it was because of the serious injury, or because I didn't dare, anyway, those villains didn't come again, Wen Shu breathed a sigh of relief seeing this.

In the next few days, the number of people on the official road gradually increased, and the business of the tea shed gradually improved. Every day, they could earn two to three hundred cash, and after including the cost, they could earn half of it.

During the period, there were repeat customers who came to buy Zhuyu steamed buns. They asked for less than a dozen or a few, while those who asked for more were hundreds or so.

It was the caravan that wanted hundreds of them to sell the dango separately.

They lingered in the city for a few days, sold all the goods they brought, and brought some goods from the capital out of the city. Before leaving, they bought rations. They remembered the tea shed outside the city that they passed by a few days ago. The green steamed buns there were really hungry. It's delicious, so come and order.

However, because there were not many Zhu Yucao left, Wen Shu began to implement a limited quantity. After all, she still needs to rely on this "green steamed bun" to make her famous.

Although the caravan was a little disappointed, half of it was better than nothing, and because of the limited quantity, they felt that this item was rare, and their evaluation could not help but be a little higher.

In the future, when I went to other places to brag about the knowledge of the capital with the locals, I praised the green steamed buns so much that although many outsiders had never been to the capital, they knew that there was a teahouse outside Bianjing City, which sold a kind of green steamed buns. , eating can keep you from being hungry for a few days.

Of course, this is naturally the caravan adding fuel and vinegar for bragging.

Let's talk about Wen Shu's side, two days later, when it was time to go to the private school again, she brought the bag of dandelion powder there, but when the master offered her money, she refused to accept it.

Mrs. Li was very kind to her, not only allowed her to go to the study every day to read, but also allowed her to copy rare books such as Shan Hai Jing. She always kept this affection in her heart, and she always thought of what she could do to repay her.

Now it's only a few dozen catties of Danzhu, so it's time to talk about it.

Master Li knew that her family was in a difficult situation, so how could she receive it for nothing, so she insisted on giving it to her immediately.Here, Wen Shu made his decision again, and he was determined not to accept it. The two of them refused for a long time. In the end, Mr. Li was defeated and took the money back.

However, in my heart, I took another look at Wen Shugao.

In her opinion, Wen Shu, who knows how to repay his kindness and is very talented, if he was born as a man, he would definitely be on the tiger list, enter the soil and rank first, and then become a pillar of the country. It is a pity for the country and the people.

The peaceful days passed by in a flash, and it was the end of the month. On this day, Wen Shu received a letter from Cangzhou.

The letter was from Chu Hong, and it said that her fourth uncle was going to come to Bianjing to discuss a business at Sidichu, and she begged her family to allow her to come with her.So I specially wrote to Wen Shu, asking her to prepare for the host, and when she arrives in Bianjing, she will lead her to play around.

Wen Shu smiled, and was about to pick up a pen to reply to the letter, but stopped when he scanned the date of signing the letter.

Because the letter was written at the beginning of the month, and it is already the end of the month. If she replies at this speed, it will not reach Chu Hong until the end of next month, and Chu Hong said that they will be there in early April. To Bianjing, so.
Naturally, there was no need to reply. Wen Shu put the letter in the cabinet, sat in front of the table, picked up a pen and opened the Shan Hai Jing written by himself silently, and added the content he had read recently.

Two days later, it was the first day of April.

On this day, Wen Shu got up early to steam steamed buns and make pancakes. By the time the sun came out and the street was bustling with noise, she had already had breakfast. After cleaning up, she took half a basket of steamed buns to the west of the city.

Today is the day when I agreed with my husband to pick up Meng Huaipi. When she thought that she could wear an invulnerable waistcoat from now on, Wen Shu was so excited that she walked quickly all the way.

However, two quarters of an hour later, when she reached the narrow alley, she found a green horse-drawn carriage parked at the entrance of the alley, and at the same time, there were noisy sounds coming from the alley.

The women's noises and the children's cries were mixed together, forming a stark contrast to the desertedness of the past.

"This child came out of my wife's womb. It is reasonable for us to go back now. What do you mean by bullying the child!"

"Bah! What is your child? This is my grandson. Where is the crazy woman who recognizes relatives indiscriminately? This is to see that we are old and do not know people to rob! Neighbors, come out and see, someone is robbing children Already!"

It was the old man's voice, and Wen Shu hurriedly stepped inside.

At this time, a woman's voice was heard saying: "Whether the child is your grandson or not, you know for yourself. Just because the child looks nine points like my wife, you will not be able to justify it even if you go to court. Take it as soon as you see it, and take the thirty pennies to take care of yourselves, or you will end up in court, and you will be the ones who suffer."

"Bah, who wants your stinky money, take the money away, and if you don't leave, we will report to the authorities."

"Hmph, in my opinion, you are all selfish. What else can you give him besides a dilapidated house and rice porridge for the child to follow you, but it will be different if you recognize our wife. You can have rich clothes and fine food, and you can go to the best private school." , in the future you will be appointed as a Marquis and worshiped as a Prime Minister."

"Woooo. Weng Weng, grandma! I don't want to go!"

"Don't go, don't go, you are our grandson, no one can take you away."

"What a playful one, since that's the case, then see you in court."

After shouting angrily, a woman in dark green bras came out of the alley angrily, hurried past Wen Shu, and got into the carriage at the entrance of the alley.
