Chapter two hundred and sixty eating out
Ji Youyi knew what to say to whomever she met, so she sent this balm out, and when she saw Yu Shuqing's happy smile, she felt that things were almost done.
Yu Shuqing really likes this thing. In the past, if she wanted to keep the fragrance on her body, she could only use incense to smoke her clothes. However, some clothes are made of materials that should not be smoked too much. Moreover, they don’t change clothes often in winter, so the faint fragrance on the clothes will last a day after wearing them.
There is no more stool.
As for the sachet, I wouldn't even consider it. For a busy person like her, walking in the wind would be too much of a hindrance.
"You are a very good person. Tell me, why are you here for me?" Yu Shuqing put away the ointment and asked.
Ji Youyi was not polite, "I have two children at home and want to take part in this year's autumn exam. Is there any news about the quota?"
"It turns out it was for this matter." Yu Shuqing was relieved, thinking it was something difficult to handle. "The registration was arranged by the academy and the county government together. I will just tell the master of the county government when the time comes. By the way, you
If you need some name cards and write down the child's situation, I'll just hand them over."
"So simple?" Ji Youyi thought there would be some twists and turns, but she felt relieved after Yu Shuqing said it was simple, and asked a few more questions, "What do children need to prepare to write for this child's exam?"
"In this imperial examination, it is easiest for children. They only need to be able to read and memorize texts. If they can write their own unique insights, they will be more favored by the old men in the academy."
Although they are both Tongsheng, there are differences between Tongsheng and Tongsheng.
If you have studied under a famous family since childhood, you will naturally be more favored by your superiors.
Of course, teachers in colleges all over the country will select their best students based on their performance.
Ji Youyi didn't think so much, "I didn't plan to let my two children go to college to study. I just thought that if I was a boy, I could continue the imperial examination in the future."
"You don't want to send your child to a college?" Yu Shuqing was really surprised. Generally speaking, they would send their children to a college to study, or they would hire a private tutor at home.
"Are you planning to teach your children by yourself?" She advised: "I advise you not to think too much about this matter. Although we know a few words, learning is different from ordinary reading and writing. It is better to have a teacher teach you."
Ji Youyi chuckled and said, "You are overthinking. I don't have the ability to teach children. It's just that my two children are a bit special, and one of them went to the academy to study before, but something bad happened to him, so he won't go.
It’s college.”
Yu Shuqing understood, "That's it."
She had also heard about the style of the colleges in the city. After all, the only ones who could afford to go to school were children from rich families. Children from poor families would definitely suffer some hardships in the colleges.
"In that case, I will arrange for someone to bring pens, ink, paper and inkstones."
"Wait."
Ji Youyi called Yu Shuqing and said, "There is a child who is not mine. I don't know the specific information about his family yet. How about this. I will go back and ask for details, and then I will write it down and send it to you."
"also."
Yu Shuqing thought it was still early for the autumn exam, so she was not in a hurry. Seeing that noon was approaching, she said, "It's getting late. Why don't Miss Ji stay and have lunch?"
"No, I made an appointment and have already reserved a table in the restaurant." Ji Youyi declined.
Yu Shuqing said casually and asked: "Oh? Where has the table been booked?"
"It's the newly opened restaurant. I heard the chef is from the north. It's very unique."
"What a coincidence?"
Yu Shuqing happened to have guests today, and she also booked a table at that restaurant.
She smiled and said: "Today there is a ship from Kyoto, and I happened to have reserved a banquet for drinks at that restaurant, why don't I take you on a ride?"
"Okay, thank you very much."
Ji Youyi didn't expect it to be such a coincidence and followed Yu Shuqing into the carriage. As a long-term worker, Gu Ye could only sit outside.
The two women were sitting in the car talking quietly, and Yu Shuqing's topic naturally came to Gu Ye.
"Miss Ji, who is this person outside?"
"The long-term worker hired by my master is named Gu Wu."
Long-time worker?
Yu Shuqing is well-informed and has met many people. With the man's aura, he doesn't look like a long-term worker.
Out of good intentions, she asked: "Has this person's background been checked?"
"He's someone my master trusts, no problem." Ji Youyi avoided the important and ignored the easy, not wanting to say anything about Gu Ye.
Yu Shuqing saw what she meant and didn't ask any more questions. No matter how you put it, this matter was a private matter.
Soon the carriage arrived in front of the restaurant. Gu Wu jumped out of the car first, turned around and helped Ji Youyi out of the carriage. As for Yu Shuqing behind him, he ignored her. The difference in treatment was very obvious.
Ji Youyi was a little embarrassed and looked at Yu Shuqing apologetically.
Yu Shuqing didn't pay attention and looked at the two of them with a weird smile. "You go in first, I have to wait for the guests."
"Okay, see you later." Ji Youyi said hello and led Gu Ye into the restaurant.
In the small cubicle they had reserved, Yang Ruofu, Zhao Fang'er and two children had already arrived, and everyone was bustling with excitement.
Ji Youyi sat down and saw that there was another girl in the store who didn't come, "Hey, why is there another girl who didn't come?"
"She thought she hadn't been back for a long time, so she went home to eat." Yang Ruofu explained: "I thought I wanted to go out to eat, so I just closed the shop for a while."
Ji Youyi didn't care about this, "Have you ordered the food?"
"Not yet, I'll wait for you to order." Yang Ruofu said and waved to the waiter outside.
The waiter came in with a warm smile and handed over the menu: "What would you like to eat?"
Ji Youyi took the menu but didn't open it, and gave it to Gu Ye. "Take a look and see if there's anything delicious."
Gu Ye opened the menu and found it familiar. "Chicken stewed with mushrooms, iced meatballs, cold cucumber..."
I ordered seven dishes and one soup in one go, which was a bit much for this table of people.
Yang Ruofu looked at him as if he hadn't finished yet, and immediately said: "Enough, enough, these dishes are enough."
"Then let's order these first." Gu Ye handed the menu back to the waiter, who quickly went down to prepare it.
Yang Ruofu muttered dissatisfied: "I ordered so much and can't finish it."
Indeed, there were mostly women and children present, so these dishes were indeed too much, but Gu was used to ordering dishes for one table at a time, so it was another matter that he couldn't finish all the food.
Gu Ye looked at Ji Youyi and saw that she was calm and asked jokingly: "Master, I ordered so many, do you feel bad?"
"No, just eat more and reward yourself. If you can't finish it, pack it away." After Ji Youyi gave a simple reply, she started to share the dishes with everyone.
The dishes were served very quickly, and as everyone said, the portions of each dish were generous, and they were all served in large bowls.
The three cold dishes ordered were served first, followed by the hot dishes, and the table was quickly filled with dishes.
