Chapter 36 Master Shen 1

"Yes, miss, I'll go right away."

Aunt Qiu carried the bag to her room in the west wing.

"Miss, shopkeeper Wu of the dental shop is here, outside the door," Xiao Bo came to report.

So fast? Shopkeeper Wu's efficiency is really impressive.

"Invite him to the living room of the second courtyard. I will be there soon."

Yu Wan glanced at the yard and saw that there was no suitable living room. It seemed that one would have to be built because people would inevitably come and go in the future.

She straightened her clothes a little and walked towards the second courtyard.

When they entered the courtyard, shopkeeper Wu was sitting in the living room drinking tea, while Xiao Bo and a young man stood aside holding an armful of things.

Yu Wan twitched and walked quickly into the living room: "Shopkeeper Wu just needs a servant, why bother you to go there in person?"

Shopkeeper Wu asked the servant next to him to put the gifts on the table and said: "Hello, Miss Yu, it should be, it should be, this is Wu's little thought, don't think it's shabby."

As he spoke, he took out three house deeds with big red stamps and Zhuangzi's field deeds, and handed them to Yu Wan together.

"You're welcome, Shopkeeper Wu. Please drink tea. I just have something to trouble you with."

After Yu Wan read the deed carefully and found no problems, she threw it into the space.

Shopkeeper Wu sat down, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea: "Miss Yu, please speak."

"It's like this. You know that my restaurant is about to open. I have no shortage of people in the kitchen. I also want thirty people for other people. Twenty people who can run errands and do odd jobs will be enough, and ten people who can grow crops will be enough. Up on the farm The rice has been harvested, and now it is time to plant wheat next year, and there is still no one in the village.”

Yu Wan also stated her request.

Shopkeeper Wu immediately said: "Okay, Miss Yu can come to Yaxing tomorrow when she is free. If there is nothing else, Wu will leave first."

Yu Wan knew that shopkeeper Wu must go back and prepare good people, and it might not be enough to meet her requirements in a short period of time.

"Okay, shopkeeper Wu, go slowly. Uncle Xiao will help me drop off the guests."

Xiao Bo: "Okay, miss."

"Then Wu will take his leave first and wait for Miss Yu to arrive." Although the business of thirty people was not big, Shopkeeper Wu did not dare to neglect at all. This little ancestor might want to buy something tomorrow, so she must not offend her and handle her affairs beautifully.

Xiao Bo sent shopkeeper Wu away. Yu Wan had nothing to do in the afternoon. She wanted to visit Mr. Shen.

When she left, she happened to meet Uncle Xiao coming back: "Uncle Xiao, take the storage room sent by shopkeeper Wu and note down the details. I'll go out for a while."

Xiao Bo agreed: "Miss, do you want me to follow you personally?"

Yu Wan waved her hand. She was used to being free on her own, but she was not used to having a follower by her side, and it also affected her ability to do things.

Yu Wan took out another thousand taels of silver notes from the space (the banknotes recovered by shopkeeper Wu of the dental shop) and gave them to Uncle Xiao: "Uncle Xiao, if you have time this afternoon, buy a carriage and a bookcase for my room, and use the rest as a Expenses in the house, as well as changing the cards outside to Yufu."

Xiao Bo took the banknote, thinking that the master was not merciless in handling the banknote. He said: "Okay, miss, I will go and do it right away."

Yu Wan nodded and walked out of the door.

She estimated that the time should be Wei Shi now, and Mr. Shen should still be teaching.

Mr. Shen's school is just a private school, but it is a higher grade than the private school in Murakami Town. You can directly participate in the provincial examination in the name of his private school. This is considered a special feature after he was demoted, and his knowledge cannot be buried.

Yu Wan thought that it would be enough to take the provincial examination. Now Yu Haoran and his brothers have not yet entered the college. They have not passed the college examination and it is too early to talk about the provincial examination.

The scientific examination system here is the same as in the ancient times of her previous life. The college examination is held in June every year, and only those who are young students can participate in the rural examination held in the county or prefectural city every three years in August. After becoming a scholar after the provincial examination, you are eligible to participate in the examination held in Qincheng the following spring. After the joint examination, the top twenty students took part in the palace examination with questions personally written by the emperor, and were ranked first, second, and third.

Yu Wan quickened her pace and walked towards Mr. Shen's private school. She wanted to meet this legendary wonder.

The house is not far from the private school. When you go out, turn left and you will find the fifth house.

When Yu Wan arrived, she looked outside the house for a while. The house was half smaller than hers, so it was probably just a second-in-complex. Now that the door was closed, it was hard for her to knock on the door, as that would make her look rude.

Yu Wan looked around and saw a small tea shop opposite the school. She stepped forward and went in. It's not big inside, the weather is still hot at this time, and there are several people eating refreshments.

She chose a seat by the window where she could see the main door of the private school and sat down. As soon as she sat down, the waiter came up and asked, "What would you like to drink, sir?"

Yu Wan: "A pot of tea and a plate of any pastries."

Waiter: "Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

Yu Wan was listening to the chatting of the people inside. Those people should all be acquaintances, and they were talking about which one was more beautiful, the wife of the boss and the daughter-in-law of the west. Someone's oiran in the capital, someone's back house in the prefecture, someone's daughter in the county.

Yu Wan curled her lips. In ancient times, there was no Internet and all the news was spread by word of mouth. The gossips with those in the previous life were still eloquent.

"Sir, your tea and snacks," the waiter came up quickly.

"If you need anything else, young guest, just call me. You can use it as you please." The waiter positioned himself and stepped back.

Yu Wan nodded and secretly thought that this waiter was very qualified and she would need waiters like this in her restaurant from now on.

Yu Wan took a sip from the tea cup. Well, this tea is not bad, with a light tea aroma. The refreshment was good, it looked like mung bean cake. She picked up a piece and took a bite. Well, it was slightly sweet but not greasy, refreshing, and it melted away after a few bites.

Yu Wan didn't expect that there were such delicious foods here. She frowned. Why didn't many people come to eat such delicious food?

She saw that the waiter was free at this moment, so she waved to him. The cakes could be bought back, but she didn't know if they would sell them.

"Young guest, I have your order," the waiter stepped forward.

"Brother Xiaoer, may I ask if the snacks in your shop can be sold? I want to buy some to eat. These cakes are so delicious."

The waiter said with embarrassment: "I don't know about this. I haven't sold them before. If you are not in a hurry, I will ask for you after Mr. Shen finishes school."

"Is it Mr. Shen's shop?"

Yu Wan was a little surprised. Mr. Shen, who was not interested in worldly things, opened a teahouse?

"Yes, but the cakes were made by my wife. Mr. Shen brought them here every day. He would come to the teahouse to sit and drink tea after school in the afternoon."

This Mr. Shen was indeed unique in character. Since he was coming, Yu Wan would naturally wait.

"Brother Xiaoer, thank you. Then I will wait for Mr. Shen."

It just so happened that she didn't know how to find Master Shen, so she couldn't miss this opportunity. In the eyes of others, Master Shen might just be a master, but Yu Wan didn't think so. To be able to reach the position of Grand Secretary, he must be a simple person.
