Five cubs at the beginning: the vicious stepmother turns over and becomes a group favorite

Chapter 64 Killing Fish

"Have you filled the water jar?"

When Mu Daiyao passed the yard, she glanced at the water tank under the eaves and found that it was full. She raised her eyebrows in surprise and said something casually.

She thought that this man would never notice these little things at home, or that she had arranged too much before, so that she didn't give this man a chance to show off?
"Well, I will add water to this tank every day at home, so you won't be so tired when I go hunting next time."

Ji Zhixu followed his wife half a step behind, not realizing at all that there was some sense of showing off in his tone, as if he was waiting for his wife to praise him.

This is absolutely impossible for him to do before.

"Well done."

Mu Daiyao withdrew her gaze and complimented him perfunctorily. Before Ji Zhixu's eyes lit up and she was overjoyed, she answered very naturally: "By the way, chop the firewood too. The firewood for burning is almost used up."

The smile in Ji Zhixu's eyes froze for a moment, although it was not a difficult task, but why did he hear something unpleasant in his ears.

"What's the matter? Can't you do it?"

Seeing that the man behind him didn't answer for a long time, she turned her head and looked at Ji Zhixu with some doubts, thinking that he was tired from carrying water just now, so she said thoughtfully: "If you are too tired, you can take a rest Cut it again, don't get tired."

"Are you caring about me?"

Ji Zhixu didn't know where his tendon was wrong, looking at Mu Daiyao's calm little face, he suddenly asked in a low voice.

"what?"

Mu Daiyao was stunned, and she asked back uncertainly, "Sir, do you want me to care about you?"

As soon as the words fell, both of them were dumbfounded.

One couldn't accept that he would ask such a question, and the other was shocked by his bold rhetorical question.

"I'm going to chop wood."

Ji Zhixu was the first to react, he subconsciously squeezed his burning ears, and almost fled in the next second.

"Host, are you promoting the relationship, or are you screwing up the mission?"

Even the system is a little uncertain, it carefully asked in Mu Daiyao's head.

"Am I completing the task indirectly?"

Mu Daiyao stammered in response, she also stretched out her hand and pinched the base of her ear, and for some reason it was so hot that she shook her hand away.

"Host, then make persistent efforts."

Before Mu Daiyao answered, the system quickly changed the subject: "Host, I hope you can cook a good meal tonight, so that the children will not be hungry anymore, otherwise your behavior a few days ago has affected It’s time for the children to learn.”

"Come on, the Ji family is only Ji Xiuping who is smarter, even if his stomach is full, the remaining little bastards will only make the old man mad."

Mu Daiyao doesn't admit the system's moral kidnapping at all.

"Host, if you continue to treat the mission negatively like this, you won't be able to keep your seeds."

Mu Daiyao took a deep breath. Although she had promised to feed Tongtong tonight, but being threatened by the system, she suddenly wanted to quit.

As if sensing the host's rebellious thoughts, the system quickly found a reward to stop her mouth.

"The host can get a good old ginseng tree after completing the task."

Wait, the best old ginseng?
Wouldn't it be possible to sell it for a good price? Even if she didn't sell it, she would be able to use it if she was sick in the future. Mu Daiyao squinted her eyes, feeling a little moved.

"Host, don't hesitate, this is good for you and not bad, isn't it?"

Under the systematic temptation, Mu Daiyao finally couldn't resist the temptation of the old man's ginseng, so she made a decision.

"Sure, I'll do it anyway, but if those little bastards still don't want to eat like noon, then I don't care about my business. I won't be responsible for feeding them food."

"What happened at noon was an accident. The children already knew they were wrong. It just needs more patience from you, the host. After coaxing the children, they will be obedient."

No wonder, Mu Daiyao quickly connected in her heart, but she didn't care what the system said, anyway, she just killed a little bit, "No matter what, I'll cook, you give me the ginseng."

It's best for those little bastards to be tough to the end, so that she can save some food.

These days, it's not easy to earn a little money, which one doesn't tighten their belts to live.

The system didn't answer, probably because Mu Daiyao's shamelessness made him autistic.

After getting what she wanted, Mu Daiyao took a kitchen knife in the kitchen, and she had to sharpen the knife first because she was going to kill the fish later.

The fish was being placed in a water basin in the yard at this time, Mu Daiyao walked to the yard with a kitchen knife while humming.

She squatted on the ground and looked at the huge fish in the water basin for a long time.

After thinking about it, Mu Daiyao finally decided to use it to make a steamed grass carp. This dish caused a trend among the noble circles in the capital for a while.

There is no other reason. The steamed fish is neither greasy nor fishy, ​​and has a unique fragrance.

Even after such a long time, I don't know if her craftsmanship has regressed, and some raw materials are not available at home now, so I can only make a simple version. Mu Daiyao thought for a while, and then made a decision.

Just do what you say, look at the sky and it's about the same, Mu Daiyao rolled up her cuffs, and was about to catch the fish and faint, Ji Letong also followed over, standing aside and watching curiously looking at her.

The scene of killing fish was a bit bloody, Mu Daiyao didn't really want Ji Letong, who was still young, to see it, so she gently coaxed her, "Tongtong go out and wait outside first?"

"But I want to see it."

Ji Letong's innocent little face was full of anticipation, and he even ran to the hall and moved a small stool to sit down.

"This······"

Mu Daiyao hesitated for a moment, and then heard Ji Letong comfort her: "Sister Yaoyao, don't worry, I'm not a three or four year old child anymore, don't be afraid."

Yes, you are not three or four years old, you are a five-year-old child, Mu Daiyao resignedly complained silently, and finally had to let her go.

It's not easy to sneak Ji Letong out, after all, she is not the other little brats of the Ji family.

"Then you sit far away, don't be splashed by blood."

After carefully exhorting Ji Letong, Mu Daiyao reached out and picked up the lively fish in the water basin and put it on the ground beside him. Holding a kitchen knife in his right hand, he slapped the fish on the head with the back of the knife quickly. down.
