I become a sage by eating books

Chapter 17 The Miao family changed everyone's praise

Cai Miaoshi, Hushi, Ningyu and several younger ones who heard that they were edible also surrounded them. It was obvious that women and children were more interested in food.Miao Cuihua reached out to take one, but Deng slapped it down.Ning An smiled, "Sister-in-law, do you want to try it?"

Miao Cuihua stroked her hair feeling a little embarrassed.Facing her uncle Ning An, Miao felt a little uncomfortable, one was because of what she said back then, and the other was because Ning An was too good to be true for her now. "I, I just want to take a look!"

"It's okay, sister-in-law, take a look. Ning An still has something to ask of you!"

Miao Cuihua couldn't believe it, please, what can she do.But her uncle said so, and she had no reason to refuse. "Uncle, tell me, if I can help, I will definitely help."

Ning An smiled gently: "Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want my sister-in-law to make some dishes with these bean sprouts."

"I, can I?"

"Sister-in-law, don't underestimate yourself. In fact, you are very talented in cooking. It's just that your family used to be poor and there was no room for sister-in-law to develop."

Miao Cuihua became even more unconfident. Is it her that the uncle is talking about? She has a talent for cooking?

"Uncle, I can't, I...I..."

Deng couldn't take it anymore: "What about me? An'er said you have it, so you must have it. What are you still doing here, don't hurry up and do it."

Seeing that Mrs. Deng was angry, Miao Cuihua picked up the bean sprouts and walked to the kitchen.She walked very fast, so she missed Deng's gratified expression.

Ning Yu gave Deng a thumbs-up, "Mother, you still have a way!" Deng's face was smug, that is, with Miao's personality, it has to be like this.

Under Ning An's guidance, Deng quickly made a plate of fried bean sprouts, minced meat bean sprouts, pickled vegetable bean sprouts soup, double-cooked pork, and sauce-flavored pork ribs.

Ning Tianshuang swallowed her saliva when she smelled the scent of words coming from the kitchen. "Brother, sister, tell me what the hell are you doing, why is it so fragrant, Shuang'er's saliva is about to flow out."

Ning Tianxue also swallowed, "Shuang'er, stop talking, my saliva is almost gone."

Ning Tianqing laughed, "You two little fellows, don't be ashamed, you girls, you have to learn to be reserved. You can't be so greedy."

Ning Tianxu also said, "Brother, I saw you swallow your saliva just now. Haha, brother, aren't you ashamed?" Ning Tianxu ran away after finishing speaking.

When Ning Tianqing saw that her words were exposed by Ning Tianxu, she became angry for a moment, and ran after Ning Tianxu.Ning Tianxu shouted: "Second brother, save me."

Ning Tianshuang and Ning Tianxue laughed when they saw the three brothers chasing after me.For a while, the small courtyard was very lively.

When Miao Cuihua brought all the dishes to the table, everyone couldn't wait to eat them.Ning Hai ate the most: "Miao Shi, today's food is very good."

Miao Cuihua didn't react for a while, what did her father-in-law say?If she heard correctly, father-in-law said that she cooks very well.Miao was a little bit shy, this was the first time she was praised. "Yes...my uncle taught me well."

"Sister-in-law don't need to be humble, Goro just talked about the cooking method, and the rest is figured out by sister-in-law. Goro said that sister-in-law is actually very talented in cooking!"

Ning Yong ate with big mouthfuls and said: "Cuihua, Wulang is right, you should believe in yourself, remember the first time I went to your house to recognize you, I was attracted by your cooking at that time At that time, I thought, I must marry her back home."

Miao Cuihua blushed with shame when she heard Ning Yong's words.It never occurred to her that her man actually fell in love with her cooking.

"Everyone is here, what are you talking about?"

"I'm not talking nonsense, it's just like this!" Ning Yong chuckled, showing eight teeth, and his honest appearance made everyone laugh.

Seeing everyone like this, Miao Cuihua didn't feel awkward anymore, she was not some kind of Miss Jiao in the first place, so there was no need to be so awkward.Then she rubbed the clothes with both hands, got up and said: "Thank you, uncle, for willing to guide me to cook regardless of the past, and thank you for approving my cooking. From now on, I will take care of all the meals at home."

When Hu Lianhua heard what Miao said, she became anxious.If the sister-in-law does the cooking, what will she do in the future? Will everyone think she is lazy?

"Sister-in-law's meals are all covered by you, so what should I do?"

Miao thought about it seriously, "Sister and brother, you are such a good embroiderer, you can embroider flowers. Look, every time you embroider handkerchiefs, you can sell for a few dollars more!"

Seeing that Miao's expression didn't seem to be hypocritical, Mrs. Hu lowered her head and smiled, "Sister-in-law, it's not as good as you said. Because my mother used to be a embroiderer, so I was lucky enough to learn One and a half stitches, my mother's embroidery is the best."

"That's right, when your mother was young, she worked in the prefect's mansion, and she was very valued by the prefect's wife. If it weren't for your uncle and grandpa not being up to date, I still wouldn't be able to get your mother." Proud, the proudest thing in his life is taking Deng as his wife.

Ning Lei looked in disbelief, "Mother, you are so powerful, why have I never heard you mention it before!"

When mentioning the past, Deng was not very happy, but rather lonely.When she was in the prefect's mansion, Mrs. Deng was indeed valued by the prefect's wife, but one day a letter came from her family saying that her father was seriously ill and might not last for a few days.That's why she was willing to ask the prefect's wife to give her a gift and let her go home to fulfill her filial piety.But she never thought that all of this was a scam, and the people who lied to her turned out to be the family members she missed so much.

"Mother, what's the matter with you!" Ning An noticed something wrong with Deng's face.

"It's nothing, don't mention the past, as long as you are all well, you will be satisfied as a mother." When she said this, Deng smiled again, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. "Come on, eat quickly, or you will disappoint your sister-in-law."

Ning Hai has long been greedy, "You're right, you're right, eat it! Eat it! It's a waste if you don't eat such a good dish."

After dinner, Ning Yong was doing carpentry in the yard again. Ning An took a closer look and found that Ning Yong's craftsmanship is very good. Every piece of wood can be polished smooth and bright by him, and the objects made are also very strong.Seeing Ning An coming, he immediately said: "Wu Lang, what are you doing here, it's a mess here, go inside quickly."

Ning An didn't listen to Ning Yong's words and went into the house, but walked closer, Ning Yong had no choice but to put away what he was doing.

"Brother, I want to ask you to make something for me!" Ning An took out the prepared bamboo slip from his sleeve and handed it to Ning Yong.

"Show me what it is." Ning Yong took the letter and looked at it carefully, but he didn't see what it was at all. "Goro, what is this?"

"This one was drawn by me, it's called a toothbrush, and it's used to clean teeth. Brother, please look, here is the handle, here is the brush head, and this is made of pig hair."

Ning Yong saw that it was not easy, so he said to Ning An, "What's so difficult about this, brother will make it for you this afternoon."

"Brother, it's not just for me to do it alone, but for everyone in the family to do it."

Ning Yong didn't understand what Ning An meant, "What are you going to do for us, we can just use willow branches."

"Brother, this toothbrush is cleaner than a willow branch. And if it is really practical, have you ever thought that this might be a good business opportunity?"

Ning Yong heard the meaning behind Ning An's words, but he was not sure. "Goro, you mean, if this toothbrush is practical, we can sell it?"

"It's exactly what my brother thinks. This toothbrush is a new thing, and every household must use it. If it sells for a penny or two, everyone probably won't refuse it!"
