Black-bellied Xianggong: Cute wife is not easy to mess with

Chapter 35 The New Arrival Cook
Kang said: "I always feel that there is something wrong these two days. I'm afraid that a thief has come. It's okay if the silver or something has been stolen, but I don't know who owns this jade pendant. If it is stolen, I can't ask the owner. errands, so I hid it."

Mu Qingwan was startled when she heard the words, and hurriedly asked: "Mother, what's wrong? Something was stolen?"

Kang shook his head and said, "Don't worry, you never lost a needle, but... I clearly remember that before going to sleep, the shoes were put on the pedals, and when I woke up the next day, they ran to the side; Also, the bottle on the cabinet has changed sides; the whisk on the wall has changed direction..."

There is such a strange thing?No way?How can a thief have such a hobby, not stealing things, but only engaging in petty tricks?I'm afraid Kang's memory is wrong. After all, shoes, bottles, and dust whisks are all small things that you don't pay special attention to on weekdays.Because she didn't quite believe it, Mu Qingwan quickly put the matter aside, and started talking to the Kang family: "Mother, although Miss Li is Yu Dawei's fiancée, she hasn't officially married yet, so she won't run away alone. She came to Yangxing County, her family must be here, why don't we send someone out to look for it, or go to Yu's house to ask?"

Mrs. Kang agreed with her proposal very much. Miss Li's parents had to be notified as soon as such a big incident happened. They couldn't find their daughter, so they didn't know why they were in a hurry.

As for Yu Dawei who was beaten half to death and thrown in the alley, they all selectively forgot.

While talking, Xiao Cui'er came to report: "Miss Li is awake!"

Wake up just in time, ask her directly for the whereabouts of the Li family, so as not to send someone out to look for it.Kang and Mu Qingwan hurriedly got up and headed towards the west chamber.

In the east room of the west wing, Miss Li was lying on the couch, her eyes were red and swollen, and there were tears on her face, obviously she had just cried.That's right, being beaten like that, and almost being strangled to death, even if it wasn't sad, it would be painful to cry.Mu Qingwan sympathized with her very much, walked up a few steps, stuffed a handkerchief into her hand, and comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay, you can rest at ease and live with me, lend him a courage, he I dare not come."

Seeing that it was them, Ms. Li insisted on getting up to thank her, Mu Qingwan quickly held her down and said, "The one who saved you was the eldest son of the Bai family, why are you thanking us, lie down quickly."

At that time, Ms. Li was already half-conscious and didn't see anything. Now that Mu Qingwan mentioned it, she realized that there was still such a section, and hurriedly said: "If the third girl meets the eldest son of the Bai family again, please tell him. When I recover from my injury, I will go to thank you!" After finishing speaking, he thanked Mu Qingwan and Kang Shi: "You two have no way to repay your kindness, I can only kowtow to you two when I recover from my injury."

What's the point of kowtowing? They won't grow two catties of meat after kowtowing. Mu Qingwan patted her hand and said, "Thank you, I saw the injustice and drew my sword to help you. I finally figured it out before I had time to congratulate you. Retire the marriage, look at the third young master of the Yu family just now, if you marry, you will not have a good life, fortunately you have nothing to do with him."

This Mu Qingwan, it's not a good thing to retire, so why is she congratulating him!Kang hesitated to speak.However, Yu Dawei... Forget it, if she wants to congratulate, she can congratulate her.

Ms. Li forced a smile, but tears came to her eyes again, and said: "I really figured it out, I was determined to divorce, and I don't regret it so far, but my father was furious, left me, and took me with me." Brother is leaving first."

"Leaving you alone in Yangxing County?!" Kang and Mu Qingwan were surprised and said in unison.

Miss Li nodded, tears streaming down her face.

Kang hurriedly comforted her and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, our family has a carriage, and when you recover from your injury, someone will send you back. By then, your father's anger should have subsided, and it's better to be intimate with the family when we go back." people."

Mu Qingwan also said: "Your father must have done this kind of thing out of anger, maybe he will regret it when he gets halfway, and he may not come back to find you, so you can rest assured to stay at my house Let’s talk about recovering from the injury.” Don’t look at her comforting Ms. Li like this, she has actually scolded Li Laoer over and over again in her heart, not to mention that this is ancient times, even if it is the modern age after a thousand years, you have never appeared alone. It is also very dangerous for a 17-year-old girl to be left alone in a strange city.No, they left on the front foot, and Miss Li almost died on the back foot, right?

Ms. Li remained silent, she obviously wanted to go home now, but she was injured and had no money, how could she go?The proposal of Kang and Mu Qingwan was more feasible, so after a moment of silence, he still thanked Kang and Mu Qingwan, saying: "This will trouble Mrs. Kang and Miss San for a few days."

"Don't bother, don't bother, I'm worried about having no one to keep me company." Mu Qingwan said hastily, and then asked, "We are destined, but we still don't know Miss Li's name."

The names of women in the boudoir are never easily revealed to others, even if they are both women, so until now, when it was confirmed that Miss Li would not leave for the time being, Mu Qingwan dared not take the initiative to ask.

Miss Li said: "I was born on August [-]th, so my parents and elder brother all call me Yueniang."

Mu Qingwan smiled and said: "Yue Niang, that's a good name." It's much better than "Li Zhuangshi". She originally thought that Li's second son would call his daughter Sanniu or something.After getting Ms. Li's boudoir name, Mu Qingwan reported herself to her family: "My name is Qingwan, from now on we should call each other by name, otherwise we live together, Miss comes every day, and girl goes, it's too natural."

Miss Li said a few polite words and agreed.

Afraid of affecting Li Yueniang's rest, Mrs. Kang went back to her room without sitting for a while.Jinyu came to ask about the decoction, Mu Qingwan was worried that the women in the kitchen would play tricks, so she asked her to light a stove in the side room next to her, and she and Xiao Cui'er had two shifts, one to take care of Li Yueniang, and the other to decoct the medicine.

There was a wounded person at home, so the standard of food had to keep up. Mu Qingwan went to the kitchen in person and ordered the women to make some food suitable for the sick, and sent it to the West Wing.Probably because Aunt Luo went to the countryside, the women in the kitchen temporarily lost their support. One or two were very obedient, without a word of nonsense, so they all agreed to come down, and hurriedly cooked several light, delicious and easy-to-digest meals , sent to the West Wing.Not only that, but at night, on the dining table in the main room, there are also meat and vegetables, some dry and some rare, and the mix is ​​very reasonable. It seems that these women are very discerning. When the daughter-in-law arrives tomorrow, resistance Should be much smaller too.

The food was good, and Mu Qingwan was in a good mood. After eating, she sat with Kang for a while, then went back to the West Wing to check on Li Yueniang's injury, then went into her room and started writing a novel.In the past few days, there has been a lot of suspense, and even she herself is looking forward to it.

The next morning, she saw that Li Yueniang had taken the medicine and porridge, and went to the main room to say hello, but she saw Mrs. Kang walking around in the room, muttering something, saying that something had moved its place again, what and what Things changed direction again, and I suspected that thieves really entered the house.But when Mu Qingwan asked if something was missing, she shook her head again. The two sat and analyzed for a long time, but they couldn't figure out why, so they had to throw it aside first.

Mu Changguang is off today, that is, he doesn't have to go to work, so he is still asleep in the room. If he doesn't get up, the Kang Corporation won't serve dinner, so Mu Qingwan can only wait hungry, but she doesn't care about it. There is absolutely no complaint. No matter how scumbag Mu Changguang is, the family depends on him to support him. It is right to have dinner together after he gets up.

Sitting and chatting with Mrs. Kang, Laiwang's daughter-in-law came. She carried a small burden on her back and kowtowed when she entered the door, saying: "I have something to explain in the kitchen over there, so I'm late, please Don't blame my aunt and Miss Biao, but I brought all the clothes I changed, and I usually live here, and I will go back every seven days."

That's a good feeling, Mu Qingwan was very happy.

Kang called Laiwang's daughter-in-law to get up, and said, "I've had someone clean up the house for you. It's in the row of houses behind. Let them take you there later."

Laiwang's daughter-in-law thanked her and asked, "Did my aunt and Miss Biao have breakfast? If not, I'll cook for you right away?"

It's already this time, the women in the kitchen must have already prepared breakfast, so Kang shook his head.

But Mu Qingwan said: "It doesn't matter what we eat, but it's rare for my father to sleep at home today, so I need to trouble you to cook some of his favorite dishes and serve them up."

Mrs. Kang is very pleased that her daughter is really filial.

"Miss Biao, you are welcome. Since I am here, I will try my best to do things in the kitchen. If my aunt and Miss Biao have any orders, I can ask someone to tell them." After Laiwang's daughter-in-law finished speaking, she asked again, "I don't know what my uncle likes to eat. what?"

Don't you know what he likes to eat? What else is there to ask?Mu Qingwan thought to herself, and turned her gaze to the Kang Corporation.It's not that she deliberately wants to give Kang a chance to show her affection, but that Mu Changguang doesn't see anyone at all on weekdays, and she really doesn't know what his taste is.

Speaking of the things that Mu Changguang likes to eat, the Kang family knows all about them. They talked with Laiwang's daughter-in-law for a while, but they haven't finished explaining.

As he was speaking, the door of the inner room was pushed open, and Mu Changguang came out yawning. When he saw Laiwang's daughter-in-law standing in the hall, he yawned halfway, but abruptly took it back.

"Master, are you up?" Kang stood up to greet him.

Mu Qingwan also stood up and saluted.

Mu Changguang's gaze stayed on Laiwang's daughter-in-law, but his expression was a little strange, and he asked, "Why is she here?"

Just as Kang was about to answer, Mu Qingwan asked curiously: "Listen to Dad, do you recognize her?"

Mu Changguang laughed and said: "She is the cook of your uncle's house. Because she cooks well, your uncle once asked her to come up to ask questions. I was a guest at his house at that time, so I met a back."

Mu Qingwan laughed after hearing his explanation: "It seems that my vision is still accurate, and I just borrowed a cook with the best skills to come home."

"Borrow?" Mu Changguang was taken aback.
