Chapter 61 Cousin is here

Chapter 61 "Cousin" is here

Blackmail, no, Shen Yunyao was in a good mood after receiving Mu Hanxiao's 10,000 taels of IOUs. When he returned home, he saw that his family members had all returned from the county and asked them about the status of their business.

Shen Yunzhen complained: "Sister, there are many people, come and eat for free, it's hot!" As she spoke, she danced and gestured.

Good guy, are you so hot that you can’t even bother to speak in complete sentences?

Shen Yunyao smiled as she watched her show off, "We will give you a free pot of tea on the opening day. Many people will definitely come."

Speaking of this, she had only asked Shen Gao to buy the tea and snacks commonly used in teahouses before. She focused more on the content of the story and not much on eating and drinking.

It seems that this idea needs to change, and only by being unique in every aspect can it attract more people.

"Sister, I brought you some pastries from the teahouse. Try them." Shen Yunhan went to get them for her.

Mrs. Liu said: "I insist on bringing this child to you because you have never eaten it. Indeed, our family has never eaten that kind of pastry."

Shen Yunyao took a look and realized that this was Longxu Cake. She had indeed never eaten it here, but she didn't like eating this kind of sweet pastry, so she bit the bullet and ate a piece under Shen Yunhan's expectant gaze.

"Well, it's so sweet! My sister won't eat it, so you can keep it to eat."

Shen Yunzhen watched eagerly, licked the corner of her mouth, and looked at Shen Yunhan.

Shen Yunhan couldn't stand her pitiful look, so he had to give her a share.

"Mom, soon, a friend of mine will come to seek refuge. I was helped by this person in the county before. He was ostracized at home and hid for a while, so he came to me and asked to stay at our house for a while. Just in case. When people ask, just say he is your distant cousin, right?"

Mrs. Liu was confused: "I would rather say distant cousins, but who doesn't know that my family is in Xiahe Village? It's not far from here. My family has been here for generations, so we all know where our distant relatives came from."

So sloppy!

Shen Yunyao frowned slightly, "Then you go out to become sisters, your family is in trouble, and your children come to seek refuge with you?"

Ms. Liu said: "This reason is quite valid. Ten years ago, your father and I did take care of you outside for a period of time. Let's put it this way."

When it was time for dinner, Mu Hanxiao walked in the door as if he had been traveling for a long time.

In order to make his expression more natural, Mu Hanxiao has been practicing his expression in front of the bronze mirror Shen Yunyao left after she left. Now his expression is not so inconsistent.

Shen Yunyao introduced Mu Hanxiao and her family to each other, and specifically said to Shen Yunhao: "Xiao Han has also been studying for several years. If you have anything you don't know, you can ask him."

Xiao Han is the pseudonym agreed upon by Shen Yunyao and the two of them.

"That's great. I really didn't understand something Mr. Sir said today. It's time to ask Brother Xiao Han for advice."

Mrs. Liu said: "Then you and Xiao Han can go to Zhuyun Courtyard to sleep together. You can just watch the courtyard at night."

The place to sleep at night was decided.

Shen Yunyao returned to her bedroom in the Health Garden, remembered the teahouse, and wrote down the names of the herbs she wanted to make herbal tea. There were many herbs unique to this place, which were very good to eat. She had to try more recipes.

The next morning, Shen Yunyao cooked porridge and mixed some appetizers.

Mu Hanxiao had never eaten this kind of cold dish. It was sour, spicy, refreshing, and very appetizing. He had eaten very little in the morning before and had no appetite. At most, he drank clear porridge. In addition to clear porridge, he also ate two steamed buns this morning.

After the meal, Shen Yunyao wanted to experiment with making herbal tea, Liu washed the dishes, and Shen Yunhao went to school. Shen Yunhan and Shen Yunzhen clung to Mu Hanxiao, just following him like followers and not doing any other unnecessary things.

Mu Hanxiao was helpless. He didn't know how to coax children. Seeing Shen Yunyao busy at work, he volunteered to help.

As a result, this young man, who was usually sitting on a chair, would only help Shen Yunyao add medicinal ingredients, while Shen Yunyao weighed the ingredients.

Shen Yunyao specially set up several small stoves with stones and used small porcelain pots to cook herbs.

After a day of hard work, she selected five herbal tea ingredients with different flavors, and Mu Hanxiao was impressed.

She specially got in her car and went to the town to buy a batch of medicinal herbs. She went home to make the ingredients, bought several batches of yarn, and also bought a small stone mill.

In order to prevent the ingredients from leaking and to make it easier to make herbal tea, she decided to make tea bags.

Wrap herbal powder in the tea bag to make the herbal powder less identifiable.

Shen Yunyao asked some of the hairpin makers to use yarn to make a small bag the size of a quarter of a palm.

No one knows what it is used for. The villagers who work on it do whatever the owner tells them to do.

Shen Yunyao asked several people from the bamboo weaving team to be responsible for filling the powder.

When Shen Yunyao finished her work and was about to take a break, she saw the uncle-like Mu Hanxiao sitting in the main room, fanning.

"You'd better come back with a load of water in the evening. Who has gone to live with relatives and not work actively? It's easy for you to reveal your secret!" Shen Yunyao said, hating the ironclad.

Mu Hanxiao snorted, "You just don't want to carry water, just say so. Ten taels of silver, one load of water."

"Oh, you are my cousin! It's just that you don't carry water, it's nothing. When the time is right, show that you are a down-and-out scholar with no power." Shen Yunyao would never admit it, because money always tastes good!

Shen Yunzhen said: "Brother, you are so rich, tall and good-looking!"

Mu Hanxiao took out a grain of silver and put it into Shen Yunzhen's hand, "Here is one tael, as a meeting gift, take it and play with it."

What a welcome gift, I met you yesterday. This is just to make me angry! The reward for a compliment is equal to one-tenth of a load of water, who should I answer!

At this moment, Shen Yunyao did not expect that the second aunt in the town was telling Shen Gaorong everything that happened during this period.

Shen Gaorong was out for a few days, and he asked his wife's brother to hire bandits, but unexpectedly he got into trouble.

I don’t know whether the bandit will succeed or not. It is said that Shen Yunyao is a little evil star and nothing good will happen to her. The higher authorities have sent capable adults to deal with it.

Shen Gaorong comforted his wife in the study, "Don't worry, that matter has not been exposed yet. As long as Shen Yunyao's entire family is dead and there is no evidence, everything will be over."

Qian couldn't help but tremble. Is her husband so cruel?

Shen Gaorong warned: "You must not fight head-on, otherwise you will lose and lose everything. Our family doesn't have much money."

"Our daughter..." Qian's mouth was covered and she whimpered that she couldn't speak.

Shen Gaorong said sternly: "Stop talking nonsense. That person is no longer what he used to be. Don't open your mouth and shut up about me..., you think you are the only one who gave birth to this child. This child is not only known as a talented woman because of you." Woolen cloth?"

"Master, I, I won't say anything anymore." Her tears were defeated and flowed out unsatisfactorily.

Shen Gaorong said: "That girl didn't notice, did she? She has become smarter now, who knows what weird things she will think about. As long as you don't guess her life experience."

"Sir, if I don't have any hands on it, I'll let others do it."

Shen Gaorong looked fierce and said: "Very good! I will give her another big gift!"
Chapter completed!
