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

Chapter 68 A pair of tentacles emerging from fried rice

Unexpectedly, her mother would be so angry with her elder brother because of Meng Xia, so Chang Pingning hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Mom, my eldest brother is just confused for a moment. Don't get angry because of this." Chang Pingning said, glanced at her eldest brother, and used her eyes to signal him to say a few soft words to her mother.

Chang Pingan sighed inwardly, but still smiled and apologized to his mother.

Thinking that he was still at Guo's house, He Guangfen ignored his son's apology and just glared at Chang Pingan, saying that it was getting late and they should go home.

Then he said goodbye to Ye Xiuying.

After Chang Pingning came back from seeing her mother and brother off, she looked at her mother-in-law with a thoughtful expression. She thought her mother-in-law was confused about her mother being angry with her elder brother just now, so she opened her mouth to explain.

"Mom, my eldest brother...my eldest sister-in-law was my mother's niece before she married into my family. My mother treated her very kindly. Now my eldest sister-in-law is pregnant, so my mother just behaved very badly towards my eldest brother. Angry." Chang Pingning said.

Ye Xiuying nodded suddenly and asked Chang Pingning: "Are there any people with the surname 'Meng' in the village near your parents' home?"

The Liu family and Meng Xia appeared in Guojia Village almost at the same time, and Miss Meng was also the cook of the Liu family.So at the beginning, when Meng Xia made a splash in Guojia Village through the "Seafood Banquet", everyone felt that there was nothing wrong.

After all, the Liu family was from the capital. No matter what the reason was, they were demoted to a place like Guojiacun, but it was normal for them to have a few rare recipes and sell them for turnover.

But Meng Xia didn't appear with the Liu family.

Ye Xiuying and Chang Pingning happened to bump into Miss Liu when Meng Xia approached her at the door of Cyclamen Restaurant.

It turned out that Ye Xiuying didn't think there was anything unusual, but her mother-in-law's suspicion of Meng Xia also made Ye Xiuying feel that there was something weird about Meng Xia.

Chang Pingning didn't know what her mother-in-law was thinking. When she was sending her mother and eldest brother off, she heard her mother tell her to pay attention to her mother-in-law's expression when she got home. Chang Pingning realized that her mother had pretended to be The reason for the attack on the eldest brother was to test the mother-in-law's duplicitous attitude towards Guo Bomo.

Unexpectedly, after Chang Pingning explained, she only heard her mother-in-law's suspicion about Meng Xia's identity - suspicion caused by the rarity of her surname.

Chang Pingning thought for a while and replied: "There is no one with the surname 'Meng' near my natal family, but maybe she changed her surname by herself?"

"Change your surname?" Ye Xiuying glanced at Chang Pingning suspiciously.

Chang Pingning was stunned, and then realized how ridiculous his previous suspicion was: If he had changed his surname, how many mistakes would Meng Xia have made before?It is necessary to remain anonymous.

With the return of the rest of the Guo family, Chang Pingning and Ye Xiuying's discussion about Meng Xia came to an end temporarily, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

While preparing the dishes, Chang Pingning followed the thoughts of his mother and mother-in-law and began to wonder: Meng Xia was hiding in Guojiacun incognito?Make money by teaching her how to cook seafood?

Chang Pingning shook his head as he thought, feeling that his conjecture had become even more ridiculous and could be regarded as baseless random thoughts.Shaking her head, Chang Pingning felt that it was too much for her to maliciously speculate on others behind their backs, especially since she had recently made some small money relying on the recipes Meng Xia taught her.

The next day, Chang Pingning's stall returned to its long-lost calm: no one came to the door asking to see "Guo Zhongzhou", and no one came to see her mother.Chang Pingning was enjoying the long-lost peace. When preparing sea urchin fried rice for customers, he heard a discordant scolding.

"How do you make this sea urchin fried rice? It's so salty! Is it for human consumption?"

Chang Pingning turned around and saw a one-eyed dragon with a fierce look on his face. One of his eyes was covered with a blindfold.When Chang Pingning was about to step forward to explain, Guo Zhongzhou stepped forward curiously and took a look. "Brother, have we met before?" Guo Zhongzhou asked.

But the man deliberately avoided Guo Zhongzhou's eyes: "You have the wrong person. I am saying that there is something wrong with your sea urchin fried rice. Don't tell me anything else!"

"You said it was salty?" Although Chang Pingning thought this man was a bit strange, she exchanged glances with the other two people to see what kind of medicine this man was selling.

"Let us have a taste if it's salty. You can't just say it's salty, right?" Ruilan asked angrily while standing behind the grill, not noticing the look in Chang Pingning's eyes.

The one-eyed dragon's expression was that he wished someone would ask that, and he walked towards the grill and stove carrying a plate with fried rice.

Guo Zhongzhou suddenly let out a strange cry, which attracted the attention of most people in the stall, including the one-eyed dragon who came to make trouble in the morning.Seeing this, Guo Zhongzhou moved forward and took off the man's blindfold, and found that behind the man's blindfold was a intact eye.

Moreover, he was the one who started asking Guo Zhongzhou to look for his sister.

"Brother, why did you start wearing an eyepatch on your good eye after not seeing each other for a few days? Is it because your sister can't find a suitable person?" Guo Zhongzhou's tone was very mocking.

After the "one-eyed dragon"'s blindfold was taken off by Guo Zhongzhou, Chang Pingning's first reaction was to look at Guo Yuhua at Guo Songqing's stall.Sure enough, Aunt Yuhua was deliberately avoiding her sight.

Chang Pingning wanted to speed up the recruitment of people from the village.Otherwise, it wouldn't be a big deal for people at the stall to find trouble every now and then.

At the stall, after Guo Zhongzhou discovered that both of the "One-Eyed Dragon's" eyes were good, he also mentioned in his tone that the "One-Eyed Dragon" had come to make trouble before.

The "one-eyed dragon" with sound eyes left in despair after being discovered.He didn't say anything more about the fried rice he brought over. When Guo Zhongzhou wanted to bring the sea urchin fried rice back to the stove, he saw a pair of tentacles emerging from the fried rice.

It's a cockroach.

I don’t know why that person disgusts them so much?Guo Zhongzhou had no choice but to take the fried rice and the plate out to the area where the stall was located without changing his expression.

The other diners at the stall had some sympathy for Chang Pingning because of what happened at the stall recently.I took the initiative to buy a dozen more oysters.

Of course, it's definitely not because Ruilan's roasted oysters are very fragrant.

While the diners were feasting, Chang Pingning was recalling who in the village had never provoked a relationship between her and her mother-in-law...

"Business is pretty good, and you've brought Ruilan here too?" Meng Xia's voice rang in Chang Pingning's ears.

Chang Pingning turned around and saw Meng Xia and Miss Liu standing next to Meng Xia.

Miss Liu's eyes were swollen and slightly red. She wondered if she had cried not long ago.

　I really doubt my mental state. I have to prepare for the wedding ceremony tomorrow, but I am still writing "Cockroach" tonight. . .
