Reborn peasant girl: I became rich overnight by traveling to sea

Chapter 24 What Price

The excitement in the Liu family's front yard attracted the attention of the Liu family. Seeing this, Miss Liu took the initiative to go to Butler Liu to ask about the situation. She happened to meet Butler Liu and Ruilan talking together at the door of the kitchen.

"Butler, why is it so lively?" Miss Liu said hello to Butler Liu, and saw Ruilan next to her, "Ruilan is here too. People in the yard have been saying that the ship has returned to the port, and there are people in our village. What’s the relationship?”

Ruilan was happy and saw that Miss Liu was also kind. She smiled and replied: "Miss Liu, there were many people from our village on that boat, such as my brother and Brother Bomer from Sister-in-law Ning's family. It seems that the children of the village chief’s family also went to sea this time..."

After listening to Ruilan's words, Miss Liu understood what the happy atmosphere inside and outside the house was about. She smiled and waved to her: "I will invite your brother to our house for dinner later." With that, Miss Liu walked into the kitchen. .

"I heard that Madam Chang's husband is back?" Miss Liu walked up to Chang Pingning and smiled narrowly.

Chang Pingning paused as he threw the conch meat on the plate into the pot, but the water in the pot had already exploded and crackled.Chang Pingning hurriedly threw the conch meat into the pot and stir-fried it a few times.

"Miss Liu will make fun of me." Chang Pingning glanced at Miss Liu.

Miss Liu hurriedly retorted: "How can there be? You can go to the front yard and take a look later. Maybe your husband-in-law has already arrived in the front yard."

"Oh, Miss Liu is kind-hearted and considerate of others..." Meng Xia, who was busy on the stove, spoke.

Chang Pingning knew that the kitchen could not live without people at the moment. If she left, Ruilan would definitely go to the front yard, and she shook her head hurriedly.

"Thank you, Miss Liu. I have a few dishes left. I can finish the last dishes before going to reunite with my family." Chang Pingning said, but he never stopped stir-frying.

"If Miss Liu has nothing to do, you can come to the kitchen and have a gathering with me." Meng Xia put the food on the stove onto a plate and took the initiative to talk to Miss Liu.

After listening to Miss Liu and Butler Liu explaining the situation, Mr. Liu, who was sitting in the front yard of the Liu family, waved his sleeves and asked Butler Liu to tell the village chief that the villagers who had returned from sea today were also invited to the Liu family for dinner.

Chang Pingning's work on the stove was about to be completed, but Butler Liu came to the kitchen again and added two to three more dishes.

After listening to Butler Liu's words, Chang Pingning and Ruilan looked at each other and sighed, but they could only continue cooking in front of the stove.

Meng Xia was a little dissatisfied: "Why do you suddenly add more dishes, and add three tables at once? The amount of dishes prepared before may not be enough."

What Meng Xia said made sense. Chang Pingning walked to the bamboo basket in the kitchen, checked the contents, and shook his head at Butler Liu.The remaining dishes are probably only enough for two tables. It would be a bit reluctant for three tables.

Upon seeing this, Butler Liu reminded them to continue, he would go out to buy groceries for the Liu family.Butler Liu said as he walked out of the kitchen.

As for Meng Xia, after Butler Liu walked out of the kitchen, his expression was surprised: "Huh? How could he really find seafood? I just don't want to be busy for a while because of the words of the person above."

Ruilan and Chang Pingning didn't know what Meng Xia had in mind.

"Miss Meng's cooking skills are on par with the chefs in the town. She can open her own restaurant without having to stay in our village all the time." Rilan flattered.

"Hey." Meng Xia sighed.

Chang Pingning saw Meng Xia open her mouth amidst the steam from the pot, as if she wanted to say something, but all she could hear in the kitchen was the chopping and cooking of vegetables.

Extra work always makes time feel longer.

When Chang Pingning's work in the kitchen finally came to an end, she had time to go to the Liu family's front yard to enjoy the flowing water mat she made with her family.Before leaving the kitchen, Chang Pingning heard Meng Xia's reminder to remember to go back to the kitchen and wash the dishes.

After listening to Meng Xia's words, Chang Pingning quickly walked a few steps towards the Liu family's front yard, trying to leave Meng Xia's voice far behind.But the further she walked to the front yard of Liu's house, Chang Pingning's steps slowed down. She became nervous thinking that she would see Guo Bomo soon.

The sound of drinking and eating food in the front yard was very loud, but Chang Pingning felt that his heartbeat was even louder.

Guo Bomo's back appeared in front of Chang Pingning.

Chang Pingning was even embarrassed to walk next to Guo Bomo.

It wasn't until Chang Pingning saw Guo Bomo being pushed by Ye Xiuying beside him that Guo Bomo turned to look at Chang Pingning.

Guo Bomo's face was tanned a lot, but his teeth were brilliantly white when he smiled.

Guo Bomo walked up to Chang Pingning and said, "Madam, we're here for dinner."

Only then did Chang Pingning react. She seemed to be stunned for a while.She handed her hand to the husband in front of her.

"I heard that you cooked most of the dishes at our table?" Guo Bomo made room for Chang Pingning so that she could sit down.

Chang Pingning was walking hand in hand, and when he heard Guo Bomo's words, he responded: "Well, a small part, we have three people in the kitchen."

After sitting down next to Guo Bomo, Chang Pingning was a little embarrassed. After all, they hadn't seen each other for more than half a month, and they didn't spend much time together before Guo Bomo left.Chang Pingning thought that it was not as long as the time she spent with her mother-in-law during this period.

Chang Pingning was thinking casually, and saw his mother and Chang Pingyan at the long table of the flowing water mat. They looked at each other and nodded as a greeting. Subconsciously, he felt that they, like others, were here to enjoy the Liu family's flowing mat.But I feel like I forgot something.

Liu's seafood dishes are well-deserved. Even if it is just a flowing table, people at the table are constantly praising the taste.

"Madam, you've been working hard. I heard that you've been busy in the kitchen for a long time with this dish." Guo Bomo said, putting half a scallop in Chang Pingning's bowl. "It's rare to keep the shell of this scallop meat. The above The transparent thin threads are even more delicious. Please try it, lady."

After hearing Guo Bomo's praise of the dishes, Chang Pingning's heart rang with alarm bells. Just when he was about to say something, he heard someone answering from across the long table.

"Young boy Mo is right. The taste and color of the dishes are really rare. I wonder if my sister-in-law from the Bomer family is willing to teach me, so that I can save myself from being told by the men in the family that the dishes I cook are not delicious." Yes. A somewhat familiar aunt.

"Uh..." Chang Pingning looked awkward. She obviously knew how to refuse, but when faced with her aunt's familiarity, Chang Pingning didn't know how to speak in order to refuse without causing any confusion between the "Guo family" where she was. The "Guo family" where my aunt lives cannot afford conflict.

"Yuhua, you have the nerve to let Ning Yatou teach you." An aunt spoke for Chang Pingning, "Ning Yatou also learned it at the Liu family, and maybe she spent money. Now that the two of you are talking, let Ning Yatou teach you." I’m teaching you, but I didn’t even mention giving Ning Yatou tuition.”

"Sister-in-law Shuzhen, why are you pretending to be a kindhearted person? Don't think that because you are the village chief's wife, I dare not say anything. Your family is hosting a banquet for the children recently. Do you want to invite the sister-in-law of Bomer's family to cook at your house? "Aunt Yuhua, who spoke at the beginning, scolded.

But following Aunt Yuhua's words, everyone at the table silently stopped picking up food and looked at Chang Pingning.

Shuzhen, the village chief's daughter-in-law, added more fuel: "Girl Ning, what's the price for inviting you to come and cook at home?"
