delicious little cook

Chapter 14

In the kitchen, the snack time is over. After cleaning up the kitchen, everyone had a short break before dinner time. Bai Kou went out to the corner door to rest in the aisle as usual.

Lu Doudou has been thinking about the new festival between Bai Kou and Mengmei, and she never let go of it at all. Taking advantage of the time now, she chased after her and wanted to ask, but she saw that Bai Kou had gone out. Stopped, and went straight along the narrow path back to the small courtyard where they lived.

Out of curiosity, Lu Doudou saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he immediately caught up with Bai Kou and pestered her to go back together.

The two of them were silent all the way, but when they entered the courtyard, Bai Kou suddenly had a heartbeat and reminded Lu Doudou to keep quiet.

The two of them tiptoed into the yard, and when they looked up, they saw some particularly dirty clothes among a row of wet clothes on the clothesline, covered with flower soil.

Only a dozen or so female apprentices like them live in this courtyard. Except for Mengmei who is on sick leave, everyone else is working in the kitchen. The clothes that are washed during lunch break are all dirty when they come back from making a snack. Who is the worst? It goes without saying that there is suspicion.

Lu Doudou's eyebrows were raised upright, and she was about to roll up her sleeves and enter the house to settle accounts with Mengmei, but Bai Kou quickly grabbed her, covered her mouth, and dragged her behind the courtyard gate.

"Don't make a sound!"

Lu Doudou became even more anxious, and broke off Bai Kou's hand forcefully, and said softly, "Do you want to endure it?"

"Hold up!" Bai Kou stared back at her, then turned her head to look at the squatter where Mengmei lived, "She thought she was out of anger for dirtying my clothes? I want her to open a hundred mouths and say no." What happened to Qing."

"what?"

"Stay here and don't move, don't make a sound."

After Bai Kou warned Lu Doudou, she bent her back and leaned against the wall under the window to the clothesline. She grabbed a lot of soil from the flower bed and sprinkled it on other people's wet clothes. Clothes, wet or dry, were all soiled.

Lu Doudou understood Bai Kou's meaning, covered her mouth and laughed until her stomach ached.

After Bai Kou finished the work of framing, Mao Yao returned the same way, and together with Lu Doudou, they pretended to be all right, and started to walk in the narrow alleys swaggeringly. See, no one noticed at all that they had ever left, so it was reassuring.

After the busy dinner time, a few girls went back to the yard to collect the clothes washed and dried yesterday. Bai Kou didn't go back, she was busy washing dishes by the well, and Lu Doudou wanted to follow to see the liveliness of the scene, but she I haven't washed clothes in the past two days, so I decided to give up after thinking about it, and honestly wiped the long table in the kitchen with a rag.

Not long after, Wan Qiu came back in a hurry, beckoning the girls to go back to the courtyard.

"Mengmei, who killed thousands of knives, felt uncomfortable and vented her anger on our things. She sprinkled flower soil on our clothes to dry, and it was all dirty!"

The girls suddenly burst into an uproar and screamed, dropped the things in their hands, and ran angrily to the small courtyard where they lived, followed by the watching boys and handymen.

In the small courtyard, Mengmei leaned against the wall with disheveled clothes. The girls who came back to collect the clothes first scolded her angrily. The clothes were even more filthy, with stains one by one, and even fragments of petals and leaves.

Every day, there is only time for washing clothes during the lunch break at noon. Seeing that the fruits of my hard work have been ruined like this, without Bai Kou saying anything, a few people who were blown up rushed to Mengmei to scold her.

Although Yaomei had a good time with Mengmei, she wisely stood aside at the moment, together with Bai Kou and the other girls, they collected the dirty clothes on the rope one by one.

"Really, it's so dirty, how can I have time to wash it again now!" Bai Kou shook the mud off her clothes vigorously, rolled them into a ball, and threw them into the basin irritably.

"That's right! I'll be preparing supper in a while, and it's going to be the second watch after I'm done. I'm so exhausted, how can I still have the energy to wash clothes in the dark!" Noisy, her clothes were originally stained with sauce, but they were stained after being washed with great difficulty, and she was even more irritable.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and soak in the water, float a few times first, soak the muddy water and throw it away." Lu Doudou came with a bucket of well water that had just been pumped up, and slowly poured it into Bai Kou's. basin.

Wan Qiu threw the clothes into her own basin, took the bucket from Lu Doudou's hand and hurriedly fetched water, still comforting herself in her heart, fortunately it was just some mud, which was much easier to wash than sauce stains.

Bai Kou was busy re-wetting her clothes in the water, Mengmei, who couldn't stand the scolding crowd, screamed and exploded.

"I said it wasn't me! It wasn't me! I didn't do it! Someone set me up!"

"You still dare to quibble! You are the only one asking for leave today, but you can have others? Are you talking about who else will enter this broken courtyard?" Liu Qu's voice is super loud, and he looks like a female man , strong body.

"Of course outsiders won't come in, the only ones who can come in are those who live here!" Mengmei was driven into a hurry, and suddenly her IQ went online, and she saw Bai Kou squatting on the ground fiddling with clothes from the gap between everyone's heads.

"Bai Kou! It must be Bai Kou! She is the one who framed me!" Mengmei pointed at Bai Kou through the crowd, jumping and screaming as if she had grasped some life-saving straw.

Everyone was silent for a while, looking at Mengmei, and then at Bai Kou who looked up because of surprise.

"Mengmei, are you sick?" Bai Kou stood up abruptly, pointed at Mengmei and scolded, "I've been busy in the kitchen all afternoon, but you are shamelessly saying that I framed you !? I stained my clothes to frame you? Do you think I'm as mentally ill as you?"

"Exactly! The kitchen is so busy every day, Mengmei, you don't know, how can you have that spare time to frame you? And pick the days when you are sick? It's clear that you did it yourself, and you still have the face to rely on others!" Hong Su shook her hands. The soiled underclothes angrily slapped Mengmei.

But with just one blow, Hong Su was pulled away by everyone.

Quarreling is okay, but fighting is absolutely not. It would be too uneconomical to be kicked out of the mansion for this reason.

Mengmei was so tormented by her aunt that she was so weak that she was forcefully dragged out by the angry girls. She had slept for a day and her stomach didn't hurt so much, but now she felt uncomfortable again, unable to dodge red at all. With Su's slap, grief and grievances swept over him, and he curled up on the ground crying.

Seeing her crying, the girls still pouted at her a few times in annoyance, then stomped away, each taking a basin to dispose of their dirty clothes.

No one stepped forward to persuade the boys who had seen enough drama. The 24 people are all in a competitive relationship. Before the final result comes out, they don’t want to be able to truly coexist peacefully. It's just that outsiders don't know it.
