Traveling through farming with the system, I cooked delicious food in ancient times

Mao Xi found a house to rent near Liuxiang Snacks and planned to move in after the new year.

Today, she took Chen, her younger siblings and Lou Laner to see the house.

My younger brother Xiaodouzi likes it very much. There are three houses in total, one for Lou Lan'er to live in, and the other two for himself and Xiaodouzi to live in. Chen went to water the vegetable fields early in the morning, and took Ajiao to live in the old house in Liujia Village. .

The house has two floors, and the landlord lives upstairs. The first floor is rented to them, which is not expensive, only 20 taels of silver a month.

The landlord and his wife have an eight-year-old child. Knowing that they opened a shop in Liuxiang Snacks and did not ask for arbitrary prices, and that they were an easy family to get along with, Ma Xi paid half of the money as a deposit.

After looking at the house, everyone went to the clothing store to buy new clothes for the New Year.

Mao Xi fell in love with a green rose gauze dress, which looked fairy-like. The inner wear was a white waist skirt, and a thin green gauze was draped on the outside. It looked fairy-like.

Unfortunately, a young lady also fell in love with this piece of clothing and insisted on letting the shopkeeper sell it to her.

"Shopkeeper, I'll add 200 yuan for these clothes. You can sell them to me."

Mao Xi looked at the young lady. She looked like a lady, so he stopped fighting with her and gave it to the young lady.

Instead of thanking her, the young lady complained to Miao Xi, "You're so old-fashioned. She smells like oil. What gauze skirt are you wearing?"

Mao Xi smelled her sleeves awkwardly. It seemed to be the smell of lard from some stoves, so she had no choice but to choose clothes again.

Lou Lan'er also heard the young lady's complaints, but she held back this time and did not treat the young lady like she did when she teased Xue Jinlan before.

It happened that Miss Ranchen, the shopkeeper of Ranji Incense Shop, was also buying clothes in this store. Seeing that Shui Xi was a little embarrassed, she gave the new clothes she was holding to Shui Xi: "Miss Shui, I think this This underskirt suits you very well, it’s more elegant and not tacky than the one just now.”

Mao Xi and Ranchen knew each other but were not very familiar with each other. Last summer, he gave her some lychee shells to make incense.

After buying new clothes, Mao Xi invited Ranchen to drink tea in the store. Ranchen was particularly curious about the coffee room in the inner room.

Mao Xi ground the beans herself, made hand-brewed coffee and mixed it with some milk for Dianchen.

"Miss Ranchen, I wonder if you can get used to drinking."

Ranchen said that he had long heard that the coffee here was delicious, but he had been busy and had no time to come to the store.

She saw that this private room was not like a teahouse, hung with famous calligraphy and paintings, and wondered: "Miss Ah Shu, most of the people who come to the private room to taste tea are literati and elegant people. They like to discuss calligraphy and painting on weekdays. What's wrong with your wall?" Don’t worry about anything?”

"I don't know calligraphy and painting, and I can't tell the difference between true and false. I'm afraid that if I buy a fake painting, it will make a joke if I hang it up. Does Miss Ranchen know calligraphy and painting?"

"I didn't understand it at first. Later, because I opened an incense shop and it was next to the tea house, some literati and elegant people would often come to the shop. So I went to Kaitang County and bought some calligraphy and paintings to hang in the shop. Although they were not famous paintings, they were elegant. , the more you listen to guests’ discussions, the more you’ll understand.”

"I understand. Thank you for your suggestion. I will buy a few pictures later. Come and take a look at them when you have time."

The two of them were eating egg yolk cakes when it started to rain outside. A young man took shelter from the rain under an umbrella outside the window. He had handsome eyebrows and Ranchen fell in love with him at just one glance.

Mao Xi stood up and asked, "Master, are you here to buy fruit?"

The man nodded, and Mao Xi invited her into the private room in the inner room.

The young master shook off the raindrops on his body and said to Mao Xi, "Xiaosheng is here to play. The fruits in the Sifang Pavilion are sold out. Are there any takeaways?"

Mao Xi nodded, and the young master bought two kinds of take-out fruits, two-box and four-box.

"Master, would you like tea or coffee?"

"Xiao Yan, please bring me a cup of coffee."

Mao Xi made coffee and handed it to Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan drank the coffee in a hurry and left with two boxes of fruits.

He walked too fast and bumped into the girl Peony who had just walked in.

Mr. Xiao blushed and ran out.

Peony smiled and said: "Hey, what a handsome young master, don't run in such a hurry!"

Ranchen stood up in a hurry, looked at Xiao Yan running away from the window, and murmured to himself: "He didn't even take an umbrella, why did he run away? This Young Master Xiao is so handsome..."

"Don't worry, the Sifang Pavilion is diagonally opposite. He won't get wet much." Mao Xi made another pot of tea, just as Peony came to the inner room.

"Which young master is so handsome..." Mudan shook her fan and teased Ranchen.

Ranchen got excited and dropped the tea cup in her hand, making her skirt wet.

"Ah Shu, you still have guests, I'll leave first." Ranchen also ran away with a red face.

Mao Xi poured a cup of tea for Mudan and said, "Miss Mudan, why are you free to come to my store today?"

Mudan didn't answer, but asked with a smile: "Miss Ah Shu, was that Miss Ranchen from the Xiang Shop just now?"

"Yes, you recognize her."

"I recognize the scent on her body. Mother Chun bought the incense from her. Does this girl fall in love with that handsome little brother just now?"

Mao Xi didn't expect that Peony would be so gossipy.

"Yes, you just ran away as soon as you teased her!"

Mudan laughed for a long time and couldn't stop. She took a sip of tea and then calmed down.

Mao Xi looked confused and asked why. Mudan possessed her and whispered: "When I entered the door just now, I bumped into Young Master Xiao and discovered that he was a woman! Do you think it's funny? Hahahaha..."

"Hahaha..." Mao Xi couldn't hold it back and laughed too, "Miss Mudan, you are not kind. Why didn't you tell Ranchen the truth just now?"

"It's better not to say this kind of thing to my face, let her find out by herself! If I told her, she would blame me instead."

Mao Xi asked Mudan why she came to the store to see her today.

Mudan informed Mao Xi about Zhemei's current situation and asked her if there was any way she could help her former sister.

"What? You said that the plum blossoms must be returned to secular life!"

Mudan sighed: "I said she was too impulsive at first. Recently, the man named Sima Yuan often went to Zhe Mei to talk about poetry. Over and over, the two of them expressed their love through poems, and they got close. Sima Yuan also said that he wanted to marry her. "

Mao Xi was startled and thought that this Shaoyao girl from the past would not fall in love again.

"Miss Peony, aren't they privately committed for life?"

"No, no, no, she was sober this time and didn't agree. Last time I went to see Zhe Mei, she said she wanted to return to secular life first, open a shop to sell piano and teach music, and then talk about marriage after she settled down. Sima Yuan is also very supportive."

"I still like to call her Miss Shaoyao. She has only been a Taoist nun for a few days? This time she returned to secular life for a man!"

Mudan pleaded: "You and I both know that Shaoyao is a sweetheart, so she wants to register with the government to open a shop. Although she is a good person, she was once a lowly citizen. She is worried that this shop will not be able to open. I heard that you and I’m on good terms with Prince Mu, can you help me and talk to the person in charge?”

Mao Xi had no choice but to nod, but when she turned around and thought about it, she finally figured it out. She didn't want to be a aunt in the mountains for the rest of her life, and she didn't have the enthusiasm to agree to Sima Yuan now.
