I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 655: Can’t afford to eat with all the food, flavor and color

 The guests who came to her house this time were all people whom everyone did not usually see. She was worried that she would offend the nobles and cause trouble for herself.

 In this regard, Baiyunxi discovered that everyone has the ability to avoid the powerful. No matter how brash and unreasonable he is in the village, once he encounters someone he can't afford to offend, he will immediately behave.

The dishes were served on the table one after another. After everyone tasted them, they were all full of praise.

Xiao Si had some free time, so he sent a message to Baiyun Xi.

Bai Anqiang got married last year, to a city girl, and now she is pregnant with a child, so it is indeed not easy to travel.

After hearing this, Mrs. Meng touched the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, turned around with a smile and told her daughter,

　　Du Shi put the vegetables in the pot onto a plate and put carved radish on them, which immediately raised the level of the dish.

"Thank you for your hard work. The food is very delicious and has received unanimous praise from everyone. They said that your craftsmanship is better than that of the restaurant's master chefs."

"Listen, this is more than a complaint. You are the daughter of a family, and it is your duty to take care of the family." Zhang Yiren scolded her, with a doting and helpless tone.

She doesn't care about this. It's just a banquet, so naturally it's not as important as the children.

　Today, the rice and stir-fried vegetables they cook are hard to eat after just one look at them.

Bai Yunxi couldn't help laughing when he heard their bickering.

Bai Yunxi looked at Du Shi. She couldn't explain talent. Looking back, she thought about setting up a shop for Du Shi. She couldn't bury this talent.

“Mom, I’m not as bad as you said. When you were sick, didn’t I keep the house in order?”

"Don't just be busy with your work, get yourself something to eat. Don't let the banquet end and you guys faint from hunger while waiting in the kitchen."

　　　 Mrs. Zhang waved her hand directly. Mrs. Du was talented in cooking and could get it right. She didn’t dare to take the credit.

“Your wife is really capable and a good cook. You are the lucky mother-in-law.”

Look at the carved radish, it is crystal clear. In order to make it look better on the plate, it was dipped in several colors, including sweet, salty and sour. The plate was removed and sent to the kitchen, and the radish flowers were also eaten.

 Zhang took out her handkerchief and wiped her face, then pushed Baiyunxi away.

"There is nothing good. These are either raised by myself or picked from the mountains. For you, it is just a change of taste." Baiyunxi sat down and replied softly.

“Just like it. In our countryside, in addition to seasonal wild vegetables, there are native chickens, ducks and fish from the Qingshui River.”

Especially the sweet and sour squirrel fish, the dean was greatly appreciated.

“Oh, I don’t dare to take credit. Compared with you, I can’t use my little experience.”

 Normally, when the clan brothers hold a banquet, the son and his wife should come back to congratulate them. But the daughter-in-law said that the pregnancy was not good and the doctor would not allow her to travel, so she could not force him. If something went wrong, her eldest grandson would suffer. Listening to Mrs. Zhang’s thoughts, Baiyunxi waved her hand.

As soon as Bai Yunxi returned to the side hall, Zhang Yiren waved to her to sit down.

“The dishes are rich and the styles are beautiful. It’s enough to eat. You don’t have to run back and forth to do the work.”

 Listening to Meng's explanation, Zhang Yiren couldn't help but sigh.

Baiyunxi heard the chatter and laughter in the main room and patted Xiao Si on the shoulder.

“Yes, mother, we will eat some when we have time, you don’t have to worry.”

“That’s right, we girls are capable and smart. At first glance, we look like good wives and mothers that mothers-in-law are vying to take home.”

  Two a zero two: eight one zero six: two b: nine two zero zero: f eight eight three: f three c four: two nine seven three: one zero a zero

“Mom, although the dishes we prepared are all common, the taste is unique. I think both the dean and Mr. Xie Dalang are very satisfied.”

"You're right. If you have enough to eat, you don't have to do any work. I said Hui'er's father is a bit worried. Look at the banquet. He is much better than me."

 Zhang said, sighing helplessly,

"Unlike me, who treats my daughter-in-law politely. She is from the city and has many rules. She speaks softly and softly, which makes me feel a bit bullied even when I raise my voice."

 “I got it, mother.”

 Zhang Yishan raised her eyebrows and retorted unconvinced.

As soon as these words came out, the room suddenly became silent. Zhang Yi and Meng looked at each other, took a sip of tea, and then spoke quietly.

 Her mother-in-law told her that the reason why color comes first is that it must look good to attract people's attention, and only if it attracts attention can people have the opportunity to taste it.

“Don’t worry, we have so much food, why are we hungry?”

 “As a member of the family, it’s your responsibility to entertain guests, so go ahead.”

"Things are urgent, and you really can't run around when you're pregnant. If your pregnancy is not good, you have to take care of it. We are both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and we can best understand this feeling."

Looking at the busy kitchen, Bai Yunxi walked over and felt heartbroken when he saw how many people were sweating profusely.

Hearing her mother-in-law’s praise, Mrs. Du felt a little embarrassed.

“My cousin has taught me a lot today.”

"It is said that a good wife and mother are the role models of women, but I am afraid that my daughter will not be able to become such a person. His father and I have had such a daughter in our lives. We don't want anything else in this life, we just hope that she can meet her husband. A happy life."

“There is a lot of fumes in the kitchen. You are the master today and it is your duty to take care of the guests. Don’t hinder our work.”

 I’m afraid of being well-received by my elders.

Zheng put down her chopsticks and looked at Chang Hui and Zhang Yishan with a smile, her eyes were very kind.

"Don't worry, mom, I understand." The fifth brother's study takes up more of his brain, and he has to make up for his shortcomings in human relations.

"Your sister Hui is still obedient and obedient, and does whatever she is told. Unlike my Yishan, who runs to the academy every day, except for her small seal calligraphy skills, I am pretty good at it. I am embarrassed to say anything else. Whether it is temperament or female celebrity, It makes me angry just to mention it.”

"You are all girls who have been pampered and pampered. You are much better than the girls in the country in terms of knowledge and learning. If you get married in the future, you will all be good housekeepers."

Hearing Xiao Si’s thoughts, Bai Yunxi’s mouth twitched.

 Zhang said, helplessly spreading her hands,

"Although my daughter-in-law is married to my son, she is very resistant to returning to the countryside and is not willing to come back. Now that she is pregnant again, I can't bear to have her travel back and forth, so I don't insist."

"You're right. I have to go to the county to see if anything happens." Mrs. Zhang agreed and urged Baiyunxi to leave so as not to hinder their work.

Chang Hui nodded gently. The juniors sat together, talking and laughing, without being formal at all.

“Who says it’s not the case? My sister Hui has a docile personality, but I want her to be more strong-tempered. At the worst, thank you for the dowry and give her enough confidence.”

"The children on my left and right are still young, and there is no rush to get married. I can teach her slowly for two years and change her behavior."
