The Ugly Girl Turns Over

Chapter 4 A New Beginning

"Accept you as an apprentice? What good does that do me?"

When Dong Yuewen heard the young man's words, although she felt complacent, she didn't admit it, she just buried her face in her sleeves and secretly laughed.

Finally, she is still a knowledgeable person, and now there are people coming to apprentice, how could she not be proud?
Hearing her words, the boy scratched his ears anxiously, and his face became more and more red.

"Yue'er, don't tease brother Jin, he is not good at talking, so you still tease him here."

When Mrs. Dong saw her, she couldn't help saying a few words about Dong Yuewen, but she was happy in her heart. At least Dong Yue had no friends since she was a child. Now that her daughter can still joke with others, how could she be unhappy?
"Understood, mother, why did you help him?"

Dong Yuewen pursed her lips and complained, then turned to look at the boy and said.

"It's fine if you want to learn from me, but I have to think about it. Today you stay and Uncle Er Niu help my family clean up this house. Bring your grandfather over tonight, and I will cook for you."

After she finished speaking, she laughed again, but the young man's face turned redder, and there was something in Dong Yuewen's eyes.

It's strange, although this silly girl was not afraid of him before, occasionally when she got lost and came to the back mountain, he would pick fruit and eat her.

This silly girl followed behind his ass, brother Jin called out, now that she has recovered from her illness, she seems to be a different person.

I don't call him brother Jin any more, but he feels a little uncomfortable talking to her now. Although she still looks like a dark and fat girl, her eyes are not the same as before.

He was still in a daze, Dong Erniu grabbed his shoulder and said.

"What are you thinking, Yue'er promised you, why don't you go to the roof to repair the house with me? Your little master will not teach you skills in a while."

After hearing this, Dong covered her mouth and laughed.

Dong Yuewen flicked her two braids, turned her head and said.

"Uncle Er Niu is so unreasonable. A master is a master, but he added a small character to him, making me down for no reason. The majesty of the master is gone, and he will not be able to control his apprentices in the future."

She laughed herself as she spoke.

Dong Erniu slapped his hands and said.

"Look, our Yue'er can speak well now, from now on, I don't think anyone will dare to bully her anymore."

After talking, everyone laughed, and the four of them chatted and laughed for a while, then Dong Erniu pulled Brother Jin up to the roof.

Dong Yuewen's mother and daughter moved the luggage and utensils into the house.

After moving things, Mrs. Dong washed her hands and prepared to cook, but Dong Yuewen had already made up her mind to show her skills today.

Because the pheasants caught were good and the wild fungus was fresh, she had long since had an itch, so she stopped Dong before he could roll up his sleeves.

"Mother, I said I'm going to cook and treat guests today, and you want me to slap myself, and Brother Jin will laugh at me after seeing it."

Dong laughed when she heard it. She has been doing things by herself all these years at home, and she is still a little unaccustomed to being helped suddenly.

"All right, you're going to cook, it's too late for mother to be happy, then go to the kitchen, mother will clean up all the furniture inside and outside the house, it's full of dust, and it's easy to get sick if you live in it."

As Dong said, she went out with her shoulder pole. Fortunately, the spring was not far from here, otherwise Dong Yuewen would definitely be worried.

Turning her head, she went to the kitchen of the new house.

Compared with the house they lived in before, this house is not a little bit better. All the walls are brick walls. Compared with the walls made of yellow mud, it can be seen clearly, and the space of the room is much higher.

Dong Yuewen looked at it, and felt that it would be fine to build a loft on the top, and she would be satisfied with building a terrace and planting some flowers and plants in the future, compared to her previous life.

Maybe this kind of life is what she likes, although she doesn't know what happened to her younger brother in the previous life, but now that is already a thing of the past.

Now she just wants to be an ordinary fisherman's girl, and live her life in peace. She never wants to live the life of beating and killing in her previous life.

The stove in the kitchen is clean, but there is some dust, but there is no oily smoke. It can be seen that the people who lived here in the past either loved cleanliness very much, or they didn't cook much.

She filled the pot with water and stuffed a firewood into the stove, then turned around and began to clean the dust in the kitchen.

Not long after, she cleaned up the inside and outside of the kitchen. The stove was still built with bricks. The flat and clean bluestone bricks exuded a simple and simple flavor, which Dong Yuewen liked very much.

Thinking that she will live here for a long time from now on, her heart is suddenly full of hope for the future.

The air on the mountain is much cooler than that on the seashore. Dong Shi walked quickly with a load of water, and her steps became lighter unconsciously.

On the roof, Dong Erniu and Li Jin were sitting and resting. Seeing the smoke rising from the kitchen chimney, Dong Erniu laughed.

"Brother Jin, it looks like Yue'er's dinner is almost ready, I'll do the rest, you go and invite your grandfather, I'll have a good drink with him today."

Dong Erniu took out a gourd of wine from his waist as if conjuring.

Li Jin nodded, glanced at the kitchen again, and headed home.

In the kitchen, Dong Yuewen tore open the washed wild mushrooms and soaked them in clean water for later use.

He poured hot water into the basin again, ready to pluck the feathers of the pheasant, disembowel it and stew it with wild mushrooms.

In her previous life, apart from martial arts, her favorite thing was cooking. Originally, she planned to learn how to be a cook, but the Dong family spear was a marksmanship handed down from her family. Although her parents left early, the gun manual was passed on to her early on. .

In addition, her younger brother is not willing to learn from Dong's gun, if she also gives up, then Dong's gun will be broken by her.

But it's different now, she is just a silly fat girl in the fishing village, and the inheritance and continuation have nothing to do with her.

Whether she likes cooking or martial arts, it's all her own business.

The water in the pot boiled, and Dong Yuewen poured the chopped chicken pieces into the hot water. Before cooking the chicken soup, the chicken should be scalded with hot water to remove the blood foam inside. The chicken soup made in this way has no earthy smell. It took her a long time to find out.

When Li Jin brought his grandfather to Dong Yuewen's house, a large pot of chicken soup had already been stewed, and Dong Yuewen also filled a lot of dried fish that she marinated. The red fish meat was paired with yellow and orange chicken soup. It makes people move their index fingers when they get up.

Li Jin swallowed, just in time for Dong Yuewen to come out of the kitchen with the dishes.

She didn't know if she saw her swallowing, but the boy's face was burning again.

Seeing him blushing again, Dong Yuewen secretly thought it was funny, but greeted him.

"Grandpa Li, sit down quickly. I have killed two pheasants today. I have stewed them all. Let everyone try something new. I guarantee you will like it."
