On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 308 Neighbor 5
Xiao Xiao spent a lot of time seeing Mother Zhou, but today she saw that Mother Liang was still serious and unsmiling. She was not prepared to get close to her, but nodded and stood on the other side of the door.

She thought to herself: She and Mrs. Liang are now like the second generals of Hengha.

He also suspected that Mrs. Li was only targeting herself. Otherwise, why didn’t her biological daughter-in-law come?

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

Mrs. Zhou was supported by two maids and walked over leisurely.

If Xiao Xiao hadn't heard her gasp, would he really have thought she wasn't in a hurry?

Mrs. Zhou first bowed slightly to Xiao Xiao and whispered: "Sister-in-law, I'm late."

Among peers, there is no need to bow down, but bow down.

Xiao Xiao also bowed slightly: "It's not too late, I just arrived."

Mother Liang bowed silently to Mrs. Zhou.

After about a tea time, the maid came to invite them in.

She and Li Yuan were married, and they were considered a perfect match.

She just deliberately suppressed their spirit. Even if she was her own daughter-in-law, she could not treat her as a daughter-in-law.

The sweet silver bell rang, and Mother Liang, who had been stuck there like a piece of wood, first said to Xiao Xiao and the others: "First young mistress and second young mistress, please wait a moment. I will go in and serve the madam first."

Is Mrs. Li stupid, forgetting that she is a peasant girl, or a refugee, and she is not a noble girl with a delicate body.

The two of them didn't dare to speak and continued to wait outside the door.

Regardless of whether he likes to eat the snacks bought by his son, he naturally has to bring them to his room first.

She felt that she was implicated by Xiao, a cheap sister-in-law.

After Xiao Xiao entered, he saw Mrs. Li wearing a dress with red silk embroidered with peonies, and a golden crown with peony patterns on her bun, making her look graceful and luxurious.

Xiao Xiao thought that there was nothing he could do, so he bowed and said hello: "Greetings to mother."

Mrs. Li responded lightly: "Everyone, please sit down."

Especially my son. I was looking forward to him getting married as soon as possible, but I heard the mother-in-law in my son’s yard say that after they got married, the couple became very loving. My son even went to the best snack shop in Fucheng and bought a donkey. Roll and hawthorn cake, bring them back to Zhou.

Li Yuan came from a literary background, so it doesn't matter if his official position is low now. The main thing is that he can often meet with the prince and the prince.

She lay there for nearly a cup of tea, then pulled the rope beside the bedside curtain and shook it slightly.

Mrs. Zhou also saluted and said hello.

In addition, she was the niece of the princess, so Zhou also felt that her mother-in-law could not be targeting her.

Following her in, there were four others holding cups and handkerchiefs, and the maid serving the tea bowl also went in quietly.

Before Zhou left the cabinet, he had to pay respects to his elders every day.

At this moment, Mrs. Li in the room had also woken up, but she was still lying there without saying a word, closing her eyes and concentrating.

With Ms. Zhou accompanying her, Xiao Xiao felt very peaceful. Even if she had to stand outside the door for another hour, she could do it.

Mrs. Li felt unhappy after hearing this. Today she was going to teach Mrs. Zhou a lesson to teach her about filial piety.

At this time, a maid came to Xiao Xiao with a bowl of bird's nest soup.

Xiao Xiao's first reaction was that Mrs. Li was quite polite and prepared snacks.

She naturally picked up the small bowl with light cyan glaze and said with a smile: "Thank you, mother."

Earlier she ate two pieces of mung bean cake and drank a bowl of red bean soup.

I don’t know who made it, but there was too much rock sugar, which made it too sweet.

Therefore, I have long wanted to eat something light to rinse my mouth with. In fact, she wanted to drink tea more, but this was not her territory, so she would eat whatever was given to her.

This bird's nest tastes similar to white fungus soup. It has a bit more egg white flavor than white fungus soup, and is also flavored with a little honey.

It's quite refreshing to eat.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

"Ms. Xiao!" Mrs. Li clenched her hands into fists, so she didn't yell out of control. She just gave the maid holding the bird's nest a vicious look.

The maid was also very innocent. This was the master's wish to bring it to the eldest mistress.

If we follow the normal procedure, the eldest mistress should take the bird's nest soup from her tray and give it to Madam to taste.

Who would have thought that the eldest mistress would be so ignorant of the rules and so short-sighted that she would eat the bird's nest herself when she saw it.

She was glared at by the madam.

She could only remind in a low voice: "Young mistress, I want you to bring the bird's nest soup to serve my wife."

Xiao Xiao would never admit that she had no brains.

She just woke up too early and wasn't fully awake yet.

After taking a bite of the bird's nest soup, I realized that I had done something wrong.

He is not Mrs. Li's biological daughter-in-law, so why does the maid give him delicious food?
In other words, this is what I sent to Madam.

She felt that people were too busy now. Couldn't this maid be sent directly to Madam? It's fine now, I was cut off by myself.

In full view of everyone, she could not bring the bird's nest porridge she had eaten to Mrs. Li again.

Therefore, her mind began to spin crazily.

When the maid spoke, Xiao Xiao finally thought of a good excuse.

She stood up with the bird's nest soup and said, "Mother makes atonement. My daughter-in-law originally wanted to honor her mother with the bird's nest soup, but she smelled something strange."

Xiao Xiao looked sincere: "When my daughter-in-law thought that the deer tendon stewed fish maw given to me by the kitchen yesterday was not fresh, she was also worried that the bird's nest soup was not too fresh, so she couldn't help but taste it."

Mrs. Li knew clearly that she was quibbling, but after hearing her tell what happened yesterday, she kept saying that the smell was wrong, so she tasted it first.

She thought that the post sent by the Yao family yesterday might be for the eldest son of the concubine.

Originally, she wanted to stand in the way of Xiao Xiao and push the Yao family away first.

Since Xiao Xiao is so eloquent now, he will let her personally understand the difficulties of the Yao family.

Mrs. Li held back her anger and smiled at her: "I know you are filial. If you eat it smoothly, then take some bird's nests with you when you go back."

"Thank you, mother." Xiao Xiao couldn't believe that the cheap mother-in-law didn't embarrass herself?

Mrs. Li asked Mr. Zhou with a gentle look on her face. She was just asking if she was used to it and asked her to just talk about what she lacked.

Soon, two more women came over carrying food boxes, and breakfast was also placed on the table.

A bowl of shredded chicken noodles, almond tea, chicken marrow and bamboo shoots, beef dumplings, and a plate of jujube and yam cakes to roll with the donkey.

It’s really delicious and delicious.

Mrs. Li didn't dare to let Xiao Xiao help her with the dishes. Of course, she didn't let them sit down and eat together. Instead, she let Mrs. Zhou prepare the dishes for her.

Neither Zhou's nor Xiao Xiao's courtyard has a small kitchen.

If you want something to eat, you can also cook it yourself using the stove.

Now the two of them could not help but salivate as they saw Mrs. Li eating so deliciously. Even the Five Zang Temple was about to rebel.

Even if they had eaten some food to fill their bellies before, seeing how delicious Mrs. Li was eating, they all wanted to eat it.
