Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 2358 312. Bazhen Jade Food (Master Chen met Master Liu outside the door, the result was)
  After Master Xiao Chen heard the dispute between Nalan Ruoye and Bai Hua outside the kitchen, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, while the guards around him were looking at him with strange eyes.

After Master Xiao Chen came to his senses, he suddenly looked into the guard's eyes and asked -

"What did you just see?"

The guard was so frightened by such a sudden move that he quickly averted his eyes and said with a trembling mouth: "What... I didn't see anything..."

Mr. Xiao Chen tilted his head, raised his hand to touch the eye socket between the bridge of his nose, and asked again: "Then what did you hear just now?"

The guard was stunned, carefully looked at Mr. Xiao Chen's face and said, "Sir... what do you want me to hear?"

Hearing this, Mr. Xiao Chen smiled with satisfaction and said, "Okay! Do your job well, and report to me in time if there is any situation on their side."

"Yes--"

After handing over the guards, Master Xiao Chen raised his hands and chest, turned around and walked toward the stairs——

When I arrived in front of the elegant apartment on the second floor, I saw Mr. Liu, the Minister of Household Affairs, lingering at the door and unwilling to enter the private room, as if waiting for someone else.

Mr. Xiao Chen immediately stopped and took a look. After thinking about it, he immediately walked to Mr. Liu's side with a smile on his face and asked in a low voice.

"What are Master Liu doing? Why don't you go in? Several adults are waiting for Master Liu?"

Mr. Liu got a little anxious and said: "Hey~ These are all trivial matters at home, and they are laughable, but now there is a fire in the backyard, which makes me very anxious."

Mr. Xiao Chen pretended to be surprised, and then asked with concern: "Mr. Liu, what is going on? Are you willing to tell me about it?"

After Master Liu let out a long sigh, he slowly said: "My mother and her wife are at odds with each other at home. The two of them always have disputes over trivial matters. It's not a big deal, it's all trivial." It's just a matter, but when such small things accumulate, it really makes people worried. Mr. Chen should know my situation best. You and I are both from poor families. My mother has worked hard all her life for our official career. She originally wanted her son to pass the imperial examination. After becoming an official, you can enjoy peace and happiness, but as a result..."

Mr. Chen lowered his head and smiled, and then continued Mr. Liu's words: "As a result, Mr. Liu married the second young lady of Prince Zhan's family. Who doesn't know that this second young lady has a stubborn temper and is intolerant of others, which has caused Brother Liu a lot of suffering. "

"No one knows me better than Brother Chen! You know the things in my backyard best. You and I are fellow villagers and classmates. The relationship between us is unmatched by anyone else. In this powerful family, I...I am Liu Xingui In the final analysis, the status I have today is not due to the support of Prince Zhan. Naturally, the wife in the family is the first one who can afford to offend. But my mother is an ignorant old woman. You can't explain this officialdom to her. It is clear that what she wants now is the position and voice of the female head of the family. She always wants to show off her mother-in-law's money in front of my wife and show off her prestige as the mistress of the house. But my wife is not an arbitrary person. You bullied weakling, she suffered the wrongs from my mother, and she will definitely come back here to fight against her. Do you know that my life is miserable."

After hearing this, Master Xiao Chen smiled knowingly again, put a hand on Master Liu's shoulder, patted him, and comforted him——

"How many people envy you, Mr. Liu? Look at our colleagues in the same class, who has been promoted faster than you, Mr. Liu? Coming down from this table, Mr. Liu, you are a third-rank official, right? We, our fellow apprentices, are right You take a good look~"

"Yes! I know that I have been soaring in my official career, one step ahead of others, but this is not the favor given by my wife's natal family. Alas... I am embarrassed to say some things..." As he spoke, Mr. Liu waved his hands repeatedly. His face looked bitter.

"Every time my wife goes back to her parents' home and complains to her mother, I will inevitably be scolded by my father-in-law, scolding me so that my nose is not my nose and my face is not my face... But, on the other side, I will be scolded. As a mother who has worked hard to raise me, I am busy with official duties every day, and I cannot take care of everything in my own backyard. The two of them are making troubles, making everything I do not go smoothly, right? Hey... I won’t mention it... I won’t mention it anymore. Just mentioning it brings tears of bitterness..."

As he said that, Mr. Liu put his hand on his forehead, feeling extremely painful.

"Okay! I'm just waiting for you to come back and say goodbye to you. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat well at the colleagues' banquet today. The two of them were having a big quarrel at home. The boy sent me a message. I I feel like my head is heavy, so I have to go back to the wine shop quickly."

With that said, Mr. Liu hurriedly gave Mr. Xiao Chen a fist salute, and then hurried to the stairs.

Seeing this, Master Xiao Chen, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed Master Liu's sleeve and said with a smile -

"Master Liu, don't be anxious. After talking for a long time, you still haven't explained to me clearly what happened?"

Mr. Liu stopped, sighed helplessly, and said——

"It's because my mother is ignorant and insists on letting her come to my house to play for a day. You can play as you say and show off your power. But what's the result? Isn't it almost noon? He wants to stay My aunts and nephews are having dinner at home. Don’t you think my usual cook is not enough to entertain them? My mother insists on cooking with the chef from the small kitchen brought by the wife as a dowry. What about the wife’s small kitchen? The food was exquisite and delicious, and she insisted on setting up a table to entertain her mother-in-law's family. You also know my wife's temper. She was already at odds with her, but my mother-in-law still insisted on using someone else's cook! Yes— —The chefs in my wife’s small kitchen must cook delicious food. The chefs are all top chefs selected by Prince Zhan’s Palace. On weekdays, if I want to have a good meal, I have to watch my wife’s face. Come on, what's the result? Does my mother really want something good to do for me? That's all! No more, I'll just go back and forget it. I heard from my little boy that my mother is at the door of the lady's courtyard, She was crying and proud, but my wife just stopped the cook from leaving the house, and the two of them just listened!"

Hearing this, Mr. Xiao Chen burst into laughter, which somewhat angered Mr. Liu.

"Mr. Chen, is there anything funny about this? There is a fire in my backyard. You seem to be laughing, right?"

Hearing this, Lord Xiao Chen waved his hand and said, "Master Liu has misunderstood the official. How could I possibly see your joke? I just think that Master Liu went to the doctor in a hurry and made things complicated."

Liu Dare was stunned, frowned and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Mr. Xiao Chen said: "Can Mr. Liu trust me? If you trust me, I will leave this matter to you -"

"Can you do anything?"

"Would you like to hear it, sir?"

"Of course!"
