The cooking color is delicious, general, don't bite me

Chapter 22 The money can make a ghost run the mill

"Is this knife mine?" Calabash looked at Meng Fuling steadfastly.

"No!" Meng Fuling lied without blushing.

"Really not?" If the knife is not his, why does he have such a strong sense of familiarity?
"Believe it or not!" Counting her mistake, she forgot that the knife belonged to him, and gave it to him to chop wood.

If he knew that the knife belonged to him, he might not know how angry he would be, so he couldn't admit it for the time being.

"You're lying!" Calabash didn't believe her, seeing that she was going back to the house, he grabbed her wrist.

Perhaps his tone was too sure, which made Meng Fuling feel guilty, unable to shake off his hand, and could only angrily say: "Do I have to lie?"

"Fuling, Hulu, what are you doing there?" Mrs. Xue was afraid that Meng Fuling's body would be unbearable if she stood outside for a long time, so she came out and called her.

From Xue's point of view, Meng Fuling and Hulu are flirting.Thinking that they were at odds on the surface, but in fact they had a good impression of each other, and their desire to keep the gourd as their son-in-law became stronger.

"Mother, it's nothing!" As soon as Mrs. Xue came, Hulufang let go, and Meng Fuling seemed to be pardoned.

Seeing Meng Fuling running away as if in despair, the corners of Gourd's lips slightly raised.

******
The next day, Mr. Ji came early in the morning with his brick-and-mortar team, a dozen or so people.

It was only then that Meng Fuling realized that she remembered to buy enough vegetables, but forgot to cook. She and Mrs. Xue would have to die of exhaustion for so many people's meals.

"Fu Ling, what should I do? You can't be too tired." Xue also said worriedly.

"Twenty copper coins a day, I don't believe no one will come." Meng Fuling plans to hire a woman from the village to do it.

She had to find someone with good character who had never hurt their mother and daughter. After searching her mind, she really reminded her of a few.

Before Meng Fuling could find someone, she saw a little dark-skinned woman hurrying over.

It was only when the little woman got closer that Meng Fuling recognized Li Shanhu.

When Li Shanhu saw Meng Fuling's eyes turned red, he hugged her and choked up, "Fuling, what's the matter with you? I didn't know about you until I went back to the village last night."

As soon as she returned to her in-law's house, her mother-in-law asked her to do this and that, and she couldn't get away to see Meng Fuling.

"I'm fine. Is Madam feeling better?" Meng Fuling felt uncomfortable being hugged.

After all, she is not the original owner, and Li Shanhu is very strange to her, so she greets Li Shanhu's mother to get rid of the embarrassment.

Li Coral has only one elder brother, and her sister-in-law passed away last year. Some time ago, her mother was sick in bed, so she went back to her natal home to take care of her mother.

"My mother's illness is cured." Li Shanhu let go of Meng Fuling, wiped his pudding-covered sleeves and wiped away tears.

Meng Fuling comforted Li Shanhu, and then mentioned the matter of hiring someone to cook.

"I will definitely come to help you, but without wages." Li Shanhu said.

Meng Fuling shook her head, "That's not okay, your mother-in-law will let you do the work without money?"

"Based on our friendship, what's the point of talking about wages? Besides, I have to hand over the wages to her, so it's better not to have them." When mentioning her mother-in-law, Li Shanhong hated her teeth.

Li Shanhu was talking about her mother-in-law, and Meng Fuling couldn't say anything, so when she had vented enough, she asked her to help hire someone to cook.

"Fu Ling, do you think someone will come to help?" Xue was a little uneasy when she thought of those ugly faces.

"Mother, you can't overturn a boatload of people with one stroke. There are always a few good people in the village." Meng Fuling laughed, but what he didn't say was that money can turn ghosts around.

Sure enough, after a while, Li Shanhu brought two people, one was the widow Qin from the south of the village, and the other was Min Chengli's younger sister, Min Xiangtao.

There were also several villagers who came here after hearing the news. It is estimated that Li Shanhu was overheard when Li Shanhu went to hire people and talk about wages.

"Fu Ling, they all belong to the folks in the village. If there is anything you need to help, just tell me." Zhuo Dazui also came, and changed his attitude from yesterday, smiling obsequiously.

"That's right, that's right, there's not much work at home, why don't I come to help you." It was a young woman with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks who spoke.

Seeing that they spoke, other people also recommended themselves one after another. These people have said a lot of bad things about Meng Fuling, and they all changed their faces.

It's just helping to cook, and there are twenty copper coins a day. Such a good job can't be found with a lantern. Who wouldn't rush to do it?What about the gap before?
Meng Fuling watched these people change their faces with cold eyes, and said with a sneer, "I can't afford to invite—"

The rest of the words were all stuck in his throat when the gourd walked out of the house. What was he doing with the knife?
