Group favorite Fuwa: Little milk bag, she is milky and fierce

Chapter 358: Focus on praising yourself
Zhang Jiamiao praised his eldest brother once, and then emphatically praised himself.

"Brother Six is ​​awesome. You are really amazing. I believe you will become a very, very powerful chef in the future, even an imperial chef."

Xiao Xi was busy trying to flatter Lao Liu.

Zhang Jiamiao was so happy that he took the spoon and left, saying that he would cook himself today and fry some vegetables for his little sister to try.

Xiao Xi was so happy after hearing this that she followed him to the kitchen first.

When the two of them arrived in the kitchen, Ms. Liu was busy on the stove. Some people were lighting the fire, others were chopping vegetables, and Ms. Liu was in charge of cooking.

"I just came back, why are you here? Go back and rest quickly. You can also take a nap. If you can't sleep, just chat with your sixth brother. It's almost noon. Mom is going to cook in person. Make a few good ones. The food will be ready soon.”

Ms. Liu's face was full of smiles. Her daughter finally came back and she would cook in person.

"Mom, there's no need for this, I can just eat whatever I want." Xiao Xi said that it doesn't matter what she eats.

Then, before Ms. Liu opened her mouth, Zhang Jiamiao rushed to the side and replied: "That's okay, I finally came back and I must eat well."

As he said that, he picked up his shovel to flush the water, and then moved a small bench over.

"Mom, go down and let me come. You haven't slept well these days. Your eyes are red. Go back and have a rest. I have learned a lot of cuisines from my master in the past six months. It just so happens that my sister is back today, so I'm here to try my hand. "

"You and your sister can just go to the main room to chat. Let your mother do the kitchen. Since ancient times, boys have not been allowed to cook."

"Mom, what you are saying is offensive. When we were in Zhangcun, wasn't Uncle Xie a man? When he was in charge of Zhangcun, our lives were much better than those of us." Zhang Jiamiao said unconvinced excuse.

But Mrs. Liu said: "That's someone else's job, and they rely on that craft to make a living. It's different from ordinary cooking."

Xiao Xi felt uncomfortable hearing Liu's natural attitude.

"Mom, if Brother Six wants to do it, let him do it. It's just a meal. No one stipulates that the kitchen must be a woman's territory. Or do you want me to be busy in the kitchen from now on?"

When Mrs. Liu heard this, she immediately retorted: "How can they be the same as you? You are the future junior national master of Tianyi Kingdom with a high status. How can ordinary women compare with you."

Mrs. Liu said it was natural. Her daughter, Jin Zhi Yu Ye, was the future Imperial Master who had been tacitly agreed upon. It was natural for her to enjoy being served by others.

After hearing this, Xiao Xi looked up at the sky speechlessly. She had changed Liu for so long, but she still had not completely changed her. The distinction between high and low that had been implanted since she was a child had long been integrated with her. This deep-rooted feudal thought!

Scholars, peasants, industrialists and merchants were always the first noble candidate to be an official, and she was a disciple of Yanmo and a future junior national master. In her mother's eyes, her status was naturally much higher and more noble than others.

Xiao Xi didn't tell her, but based on her relationship with Yan Mo, even if Yan Mo gave her this status, he might not necessarily make her a national master in the end. At first, she was a little fanciful, but after Yan Ci compared it, She knew it was impossible for her. Not only was Yan Ci smart, but he was much better behaved than her.

But she couldn't say this.

Xiao Xi sighed and said: "Mom, I am no different from them. I am also a girl, and they are also girls. It's just that my status is higher. But there is no distinction between high and low in any profession in this world. If Without those opportunities, I would still be in Zhangcun, and I might still be the disaster star that everyone calls me.”

"Girl, why do you keep remembering these old things? It's been so long, so don't think about it anymore. You are now a junior national master. A junior national master with a distinguished status is not a disaster. Okay, okay. , you and your brother go out to rest first, the lunch lady will be here at noon today, you two don’t make trouble here, and you, the sixth one, if you really think about your sister, take her out, there is oil smoke in this kitchen It’s so heavy, it’s not good for your health if you choke.”

Zhang Jiamiao was still fighting with Ms. Liu, insisting on cooking a meal for her sister before leaving. Ms. Liu was finally beaten to the point where she had no choice but to tell him that the ingredients for lunch today were not complete enough. After lunch, she would buy the ingredients in the afternoon. , I left the dinner to him, and then I took out Lao Liu.

Being assigned the task of making dinner, Zhang Jiamiao took his sister out to buy ingredients on the spot.

Mrs. Liu didn't bother to care about him, she just asked him to come back on time at meal time.

After getting permission, Zhang Jiamiao immediately pulled Xiao Xi and ran away.

Mrs. Liu looked at the two children running away and said to a middle-aged man who was chopping vegetables: "Go and take a few people to follow you. When it's time to eat, remind them that Xi'er and Xiaoliu are both taking bribes." It’s the age to play, don’t miss your meal while playing.”

"Yes, ma'am."

The man nodded in agreement, put down the knife in his hand, took off his apron and went out.

The woman who was sitting on the stove lighting the fire looked at Mrs. Liu and said to the side: "When the young masters come back from class in the evening and see the young lady at home, they will definitely be very happy."

After hearing this, Ms. Liu forgot where the two little guys had left and looked at it, then responded with a smile: "No, of the seven children in the family, Xi'er is the only girl. She has been treated by several brothers since she was a child."

The woman who lit the fire said a few more compliments, and Mrs. Liu was very happy. In order to let the family take better care of her daughter, she directly said that this month's salary would be doubled.

Those people were very happy after hearing this, and the whole Zhang Mansion was filled with joy.

Zhang Zhong, who was notified of the news, learned that Xiao Xi had returned home, so he hurried back from his shop in the capital.

He was afraid that Xiao Xi had already revealed the reason for his return.

After coming back, I asked the people in the house and went straight to the kitchen.

But after a few words, she realized that Liu didn't know the reason for Xiao Xi's return.

Originally, he wanted to meet Xiao Xi and explain the cause and effect of this matter to Xiao Xi face to face, but he was told that Zhang Jiamiao had already taken Xiao Xi out shopping to buy ingredients for the evening.

For a moment, Zhang Zhong stood in the kitchen, not knowing whether he should say something or not.

Mrs. Liu noticed something strange about him and thought something had happened to the restaurant.

"Did something happen in the shop?"

"No, I... I heard that Xiao Xi is back." After half a year of getting along, Zhang Zhong gradually relaxed and no longer stuttered when speaking.

"Yes, I just came back this morning. Miao'er took him out shopping. That guy has liked to cling to Xiaoxi since he was a child. He is the youngest among several children. When he is at home, if the boss is free, If the boss is not free, the second child will be hugged. If the second child is not free, it is the third and fourth child. If the third child and the fourth child do not have time, it is the fifth child's turn."

Recalling the past, Mrs. Liu's eyes were full of pampering and tenderness. Probably the best thing she did in her life was giving birth to so many children.

Although her life was not good in her husband's family, and her mother's family also treated her as an item, the children were all sensible. Even the sixth child, who was a little younger, tried his best to find his own position and help the family live. Better off.

She had wanted to die several times, but whenever she saw several children being beaten and scolded by their father-in-law and mother-in-law, she did not dare to die.

After she died, the children had no support in this world.

She also couldn't imagine how the children would be looked down upon and how they would be treated by their grandparents without her.

Later, if you endure it, you will get used to it, and you will get used to being beaten.

At that time, she just wanted to raise her child. When the child grew up, got married, and started a family, she would no longer worry about it.

For herself at that time, not being beaten or scolded by her parents-in-law was already an extremely happy day. She never dared to expect that she would live a good life one day.

But things are fickle. Her vicious father-in-law and evil mother-in-law finally met their retribution, and her daughter became able to speak after the old woman died, became smarter, and even had incredible medical skills. From then on , her family’s life is getting better and better day by day.

Earthquakes, floods and plagues had killed many people in that area, but her family did not have any, nor did the few families who had good relations with her family. Her daughter was really like the lucky star that everyone said, using her blessings to bring blessings. Charming everyone around her.

"Time flies so fast." Ms. Liu stir-fried a few times and put the vegetable dishes in the pot on the plate. She couldn't help but sigh. Tears filled her eyes as she spoke.

Thinking back to last winter, she was still washing diapers for her children in ice water. At this time, two years ago, she was still taking care of seven children while enduring the pain in her back and cutting pigs in the field. Damn it, but it has only been a short time since then, and life has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The husband who tortured her died, and so did her parents-in-law. After Xi'er was born, she finally didn't have to have children endlessly year after year, nor did she have to cut wheat and pull an oxcart with a big belly. Since the birth of her daughter, she Life is really getting better little by little.

Zhang Zhong opened his mouth on the side, not knowing what to say in his heart.

This matter made Ms. Liu herself discover that the meaning would definitely be different from if he took the initiative to say it.

"What's wrong, second brother?" Ms. Liu also noticed something strange about him.

Zhang Zhong shook his head.

Mrs. Liu was puzzled: "Aren't you happy that Xi'er is back?"

"I'm very happy, very happy, very, very happy." Zhang Zhong said several happy words in succession.

But Mrs. Liu knew from the expression on his face that he must be hiding something from her.

"Second brother, just tell me if you have anything to do. Are you encountering any difficulties in the shop?"

"No...that's it, you...well, that's all, I'll tell you clearly. After Xi'er left, you kept crying, and your eyes were swollen to the size of walnuts every day. The doctor also said that you looked like that, If I continue to cry, not only will my heart be broken, but my eyes will also be damaged by crying. I thought at that time, if Xiaoxi comes back, you will be happy, and even if I leave then, you will not be as sad as at the beginning, so I made a plan with a few children and asked the imperial doctor to help tell a lie to the Imperial Preceptor, saying that your eyes were broken and asked the Imperial Preceptor to inform Xiao Xi of your current situation."

Zhang Zhong told all his previous calculations in one breath.

Mrs. Liu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and a touch of sadness flashed in her eyes. It turned out that Xi'er came back for this reason.

But the next second, he was covered by a smile.

"I thought it was a big deal. It's okay. Now that Xi'er is back, as long as my daughter comes back, I, as a mother, will be happy."

Liu's face was full of smiles, but after all, there was still a bit of loneliness in her eyes.

"If you are angry, just scold me." Zhang Zhong felt distressed when he saw the forced smile in Liu's eyes, but if Xiao Xi didn't come back, he didn't know how long he would continue to cry.

"I'm not angry. How could I be angry? Now that my daughter is back, it's too late for me to be happy. However, you have to tell me what you do in the future. You can't be like today when your daughter is back. Be honest with me."

Liu pretended to be angry, and Zhang Zhong immediately nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, I will explain to you in advance what I will do in the future." Zhang Zhong vowed that this time it was really unavoidable.

Mrs. Liu couldn't help laughing when she saw the man like this.

Liu's natural beauty, coupled with the period of recuperation, her complexion has long been restored.

In order to stimulate population growth, Tianyi Kingdom, all the women here get married at the age of 7 or 20. Some even had babies at the age of 20 or . She was only in her teens when she got married. Now, she has become The mother of seven children is actually only over years old. Now that her life is gradually getting better, she also has the time and energy to dress herself up. She is in her s, which is the prime time for a woman. In addition, she was born with Beautiful, with a slight smile, she has the appearance of a country and a city. Zhang Zhong was dumbfounded just looking at it.

Until the woman sitting next to him making a fire saw the man like this and couldn't help but make fun of him.

"Master, how long have you been with Madam? Why are you not afraid that Madam will scold you if you still look at Madam in a daze?"

Zhang Chong blushed after hearing this and scratched his head in embarrassment.

Mrs. Liu was in a good mood when she heard the woman praise her appearance.

She glanced at the woman lighting the fire, then looked at Zhang Zhong and said, "It's been more than a year, and this habit of scratching my head still hasn't changed."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhong immediately put down his hand and explained, "Actually, things have changed a lot."

When he came to Zhang Mansion before, whenever those people saluted him, he would be nervous and at a loss. Now, he is much better than before.

The people around them couldn't help laughing after hearing this. Liu's housekeeper was not strict in his management, and they, the servants, did it easily, and occasionally they would make fun of the two of them.

Seeing Zhang Zhong's behavior, Mrs. Liu had no choice but to say: "Yes, yes, it's much better. It's just that you have to work harder in the future. You have to get rid of this habit of scratching your head from time to time. From now on, you will be Xiao Xi's father, and Xiao Xi will be the national master from now on." "If you scratch your head when you get nervous, you will lose face when you go out."

In Mrs. Liu's heart, she has determined that her daughter will definitely become the national teacher of Tianyi Kingdom in the future.
