Cousin Salted Fish Dressed as a Heroine

Chapter 3
As soon as Zhang Jiao got home, she fell on the sofa like a walking dead without emotion.

Qi's mother and other old people who had stayed in the Zhang family for a long time winked at each other. They didn't understand what was wrong with the young lady, and one by one they urged Qi's mother to ask.Mother Qi glared at these useless old sisters, straightened her back and bravely moved forward.

She squatted on the carpet courteously, and skillfully massaged Zhang Jiao's head and shoulders. "What happened to Miss? Why are you so unhappy?"

Zhang Jiao changed into a comfortable position and fully enjoyed Qi Ma's care. "It's nothing serious, I'm just tired."

It's just a salted fish disease, "Is Mama Liu there?"

"Yes, yes, we came back together in the morning. We are in the kitchen now. What do you want to eat?"

The Zhang family's house is large and numerous, and they employ a lot of servants.But the most important ones are Qi Ma and Qi Bo. The two couples came from Haicheng with Zhang Jiao's grandfather and took care of Zhang Jiao when he grew up.Now that the Zhang family belongs to Zhang Jiao, it is natural for the couple to become the two great housekeepers of the Zhang family.

Secondly, those with higher status are Ma Liu and Aunt Wang in the kitchen, Uncle Gui Wen in the old house, Uncle Ding in the garden, and Brother Zhou in the Ningguo Hotel.They were also part of the old man's family.

"If you can't eat, let's make a pot of soup." Zhang Jiao was not hungry at all. She closed her eyes and just wanted to sleep. "Qi Ma, tell Ma Liu and let her prepare. She will start working as a chef and shopkeeper in a dessert shop tomorrow. .”

"Really? Miss." Mama Liu's surprised voice sounded in Zhang Jiao's ears, and she opened her eyes in fright.

"when did you come?"

Mother Liu chuckled, "Just when you asked."

Zhang Jiao said oh, ignoring Liu Ma's scorching eyes. "Being a chef in a store is harder than working at home. Are you willing to go?"

Of course I would!Mama Liu has long been envious of Mama Qi's unquestionable status in the house, and now that the lady has handed over the ladder to climb the wall, she is naturally happy to climb up. "Will you like it? It's because the young lady values ​​me. I will definitely do a good job."

Zhang Jiao nodded reservedly, "Then you will go with me tomorrow."

"Yes, Miss!" Mother Liu bent down happily, "Just wait a minute, I've stewed lotus root and pork ribs soup in the afternoon, and I'll bring you a bowl right away."

Mama Liu slipped into the kitchen.

Qi's mother then joked, "Why are you so willing to let go of the work in the shop?"

Zhang Jiao: "..."

What could she say? "I see Liu's mother is free to be attentive all day long, find something for her to do."

Qi Ma snickered, she didn’t believe it!

"That's fine. Miss, you should let go a long time ago. If you're bored, you can go there to kill time. It's very inappropriate to do everything by yourself. You'll be tired."

"I know, I'll leave everything to Liu Ma from now on." Zhang Jiao could hear that Qi Ma felt sorry for her, and she responded in a soft voice.

Mother Qi pressed her back a few more times, "By the way, miss, my aunt called me this afternoon and said that Miss Yan's drama will be broadcast tonight. Do you want to watch it?"

Miss Yan's full name is Chu Yan, and she is Chu Chan's twin sister.When I was in school, I signed a contract with Hong Kong Radio Television Station and participated in an artist training class to become an actor.

What is being broadcast today is her first drama.

Zhang Jiao's biological mother died early due to dystocia, and her father was seriously ill. She has been raised by her aunt's house.Growing up with sisters Chu Yan and Chu Chan, they have different personalities, but they get along very well.

Chu Chan has a fiery temper and a straightforward personality.Chu Yan loves beauty by nature, lively and cheerful.Zhang Jiao plays a small Buddhist family, a salted fish, eating, drinking and playing are the only pleasures.

"Turn on the TV and have a look." Zhang Jiao became interested. He heard that Chu Yan was filming a TV series adapted from a novel.

Zhang Jiao drank the soup sent by Liu's mother and watched Chu Yan's TV series with relish, feeling that such a life was more suitable for her.

In the middle of the night, Zhang Jiao woke up suddenly.

She lifted the quilt and sat up, patted her little heart, and turned on the bedside lamp.I couldn't react for a while.

"It's too outrageous!"

She dreamed that she was a passerby in a novel, which was a period entertainment novel, and the heroine was her cousin Chu Yan.The novel describes how the heroine got rid of her background and became a top-notch in the 80s entertainment industry.

There are not many explanations about Zhang Jiao, most of them are mentioned in one stroke, and the most meaningful appearance is in the interview with the heroine.

At that time, the heroine won the Best Actress Award. During an interview, a reporter asked: Who is the person you most admire?

She replied without hesitation, "It's my cousin Zhang Jiao."

"why?"

"Because she is self-confident and self-improving, she made a fortune in Hong Kong City with her own ability, became a famous tycoon in the real estate industry, and set an example for all independent women..."

……

Zhang Jiao leaned over and took out the vanity mirror from the bedside table, carefully took a picture of herself, and put it down in silence for a while.

She is not worthy of being the heroine's idol.

She is salty, she is happy!

Zhang Jiao threw away the mirror, forgot about the dream she had just had, and fell asleep.

Two hours later, she gritted her teeth and got up again.He beat the bed twice viciously.

Can you fulfill your dreams together?
This time she dreamed that she was a passerby in the time exploration text, hehe, the heroine is her cousin Chu Chan.

The heroine of the novel, Chu Chan, is a senior inspector of the West Kowloon Crime Squad and is known as a sharp goddess detective.She has a strong ability and a good family background, and the cases she handles can always solve the case quickly and catch the murderer.The only obsession in her life is to find the murderer of her cousin.

This cousin is Zhang Jiao.

It is written in the novel that her cousin was very kind to her since she was a child, gentle and considerate, and accompanied her to study and practice martial arts together.When she grew up, she was assigned to West Kowloon as a trainee police detective. Her cousin was afraid that she would be lonely, so she opened a dessert shop near the police station.Often give her food and drink, and help her get through with colleagues.

In the heart of the heroine Chu Chan, her cousin is the person closest to her.

Once she stayed up late and worked overtime for several days without going home. Her cousin felt sorry for her and wanted to bring her dinner, but she was attacked by gangsters on the road and was brutally killed.

From then on, she made it her life goal to find the murderer and avenge her cousin.

Zhang Jiao clenched her fists bitterly. She would never give Chu Chan food again and would never be with her again.She didn't go to the dessert shop either.

I'm so angry, if you don't be a strong woman, you will be a dead man!

Zhang Jiao has traveled through 22 years. His family background is rich and beautiful, and he also has his own personal space and a powerful aura.Such a character can't be a heroine?

Outrageous!To his novels!

She doesn't believe in prophetic dreams. A three-year-old child knows that dreams are reversed.

As long as she is strong enough, death cannot catch up with her.

It was now three o'clock in the morning. Zhang Jiao turned her head to look at the clock, raised the corners of her mouth coldly, and smiled.She just wants to show off. If she dreams again, she won't sleep for three days!

*
Zhang Jiao went downstairs to have breakfast in a daze. After lying down for the third time last night, she had another dream.

I dreamed of the unfinished part of the interview with the heroine Chu Yan. Zhang Jiao can’t remember the rest, but only the last sentence, “It’s a pity that she died young.”

In whichever novel she is co-authoring, she is dead.

"Mom Liu! Is there any porridge?" Zhang Jiao shouted loudly. She really couldn't eat anything else and urgently needed a mouthful of porridge to calm her nerves.

Every morning, a pot of porridge is cooked in the kitchen, which is the servants' breakfast.Hearing that Zhang Jiao wanted to drink porridge, Mama Liu quickly filled a bowl and brought it up.

"Miss, it's still a little hot when it comes out of the pot. Please drink it slowly."

Mother Liu brought over the breakfast she had made. "Miss, Mother Qi asked me to remind you before going out in the morning that Miss Zhou will invite you to the teahouse for tea at three o'clock in the afternoon."

Zhang Jiao nodded, "I understand. You can go to the dessert shop later. The key to the door is at Qi Bo's. You can go get it from him."

Mama Liu was overjoyed. She has been with the master and wife for so many years, so she is well-informed, so she won't be pretentious.But she is not afraid of managing a shop.Besides, she also recognizes Tian Tian in the store, she is an easy-going girl.

Zhang Jiao finished her porridge and ate a tea egg, finally feeling much better.Cannon fodder is just cannon fodder. She believes that with her skill and strength, few people can harm her alone. Besides, she also has a secret weapon.

After thinking about it, sleepiness also came up.She wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, walked slowly upstairs, and covered herself with a quilt.

I have to drink tea in the afternoon, so I have to refresh myself.

Zhou Bufan, the Miss Zhou that Mama Liu mentioned, is a classmate of Zhang Jiao's, and they have known each other for more than ten years.Besides those two cousins, Zhou Bufan is Zhang Jiao's best friend.

Her family came from the textile industry, and her father opened the largest Yiren clothing store in Hong Kong City.But after she graduated, she didn't hold a costume party, but became the reporter that Chu Chan hated the most.

"Yo, Miss Zhang is really a busy person! Please only come out once out of ten times." Zhou Bufan folded his hands on his chest, with contemptuous eyes, "Oh, I'm not likable after all."

Zhang Jiao had just stepped into the second floor of the tea house when she was startled by her hypocritical tone and had goose bumps all over her body.

She resisted the urge to cover her face with her handbag, walked a few steps quickly, and sat down opposite Zhou Bufan, her eyes unconsciously scanning the surrounding guests. "Stop talking, it's so embarrassing! Don't you see people are looking at us?"

Zhou Bufan remained calm, "Oh, I didn't see it."

Zhang Jiao: "..."

She swallowed the breath stuck in her chest, "What did you ask me to do?"

"Drink tea." Zhou Bufan pointed to the teapot on the table, "Didn't I tell you all about it on the phone, and your Qi mother didn't tell you?"

Zhang Jiao picked up the pot, and there was only half of it left.

She seized the opportunity to turn against the customer, "No sincerity! Don't go to the Three Treasures Palace if you have nothing to do, talk about things if you have something to do."

We have been friends for so many years, who doesn’t know who?Zhou Bufan's preemptive strike just now must have some hidden agenda.

"Hehe, you're still smart." Zhou Bufan removed his unattainable look on his face, poured a cup of tea for Zhang Jiao and handed it to Zhang Jiao with both hands. "Try it quickly. I spent a lot of money on the new Dahongpao in the teahouse."

Zhang Jiao took it and smelled it, then took a sip proudly, "Well, it tastes good."

"Then add more, add more..." Before Zhou Bufan could pick up the teapot, Zhang Jiao pressed it down.

"I dare not add this tea."

"..." The two were silent, and their eyes competed for a while.

Zhou Bufan couldn't bear to be defeated, and became angry from embarrassment, "Oh, it's not a big deal, I just want to borrow some money from you for a temporary turnaround, you don't have to be weird."

Zhang Jiao opened her eyes in disbelief, "Who is this weird guy? If anyone else had said those words to you when I came upstairs, I would have left a long time ago. You are really heartless!"

Zhou Bufan is a man who can bend and stretch.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, I hate you!" She looked left and right, but she didn't dare to meet Zhang Jiao's eyes.

Zhang Jiao was curious, "You still know you have a guilty conscience?"

"Then do you want to borrow it or not?" Zhou Bufan curled his lips.

"Borrow, borrow, borrow! You really know how to choose the right time. I just received a rent payment yesterday." Zhang Jiao took another sip of tea, "But why are you borrowing money? Logically speaking, a young lady like you shouldn't be short of money?"

Zhou Bufan's shoulders slumped, listless.

"I'm miserable!"
