Xu Sanlang said that it was not easy to handle, but he had been working in a county restaurant for so long, his movements extremely nimble, and in a short period of time he was out.
The two of them went back into the kitchen together. Lady Wu saw that Xu Sanlang had followed Cheng Xi into the kitchen, so she asked, "Why did you come in as well? If you have us here, we won't need you. You can go to the main house. "
"Okay." Xu Sanlang replied and went to the stove to heat the fire. Ma Xiufen, who was cutting vegetables behind the stove, looked at Xu Sanlang curiously. Normally, a few men would go into the kitchen, but this man was so stubborn that he stayed in the kitchen.
Seeing that Xu Sanlang did not plan to go out, Lady Wu pushed Cheng Xi, who was behind him, in, and signalled for him to leave.
Cheng Xi knew that Xu Sanlang would definitely not be able to speak a word if he stayed in the room, it would not be good for him to sit at the side without speaking, he might as well stay in the kitchen and help her burn some food.
Lady Wu saw that Cheng Xi still remained in the kitchen without saying anything, so she did not speak anymore. She did not care about the two anymore, and busied herself with her own business.
Cheng Xi thought that since they were all in the kitchen, she would show them her hand. Hence, she took over Wu Shi's position and acted as the head chef.
Ma Xiufeng, on the other hand, was free now. She wanted to take over from Xu Sanlang and help him ignite the fire, but she was rejected by Cheng Xi. She would often help her light the fire, making it easier for her.
However, Ma Xiufen was also unwilling to go out. She was also curious, what Cheng Xi wanted to do with the loaches, so she stayed by the side and watched while she talked to Lady Wu.
Originally, when Cheng Xi asked for a spoon, Lady Wu was worried, after all, preparing such a sumptuous meal, if she wasted it then it would be a pity. However, when Cheng Xi took action and saw her skilled actions, she was only left with shock.
When the rich fragrance wafted through the kitchen, Lady Wu and Ma Xiufeng felt even more incredulous.
Originally, they knew about Cheng Xi's culinary skills. Basically, they could not say that she had any culinary skills, at most, she could only cook.
However, what made them exclaim in shock was not only her culinary skills, but also the change in her entire person. If not for the fact that this person was actually Cheng Xi, who they had watched growing up, they would have thought that he was a completely different person.
In the past half year, other than her original appearance, the other changes that Cheng Xi had made had truly amazed them.
The children playing in the yard could no longer resist the temptation of the fragrance wafting from the kitchen. They all came to the kitchen door together, but due to the strict manner of the adults, they didn't dare to casually enter.
When Cheng Xi saw this, she smiled and waved to them, giving them the half fried loach.
Madam Wu and Young Lady Ma watched the kids eat with relish. They were originally somewhat disdainful of it, but now they couldn't help but praise it after tasting it. They didn't expect this thing to be so delicious.
After the children divided the half plate of loaches, they were still somewhat reluctant to leave. After being scolded by Lady Wu and Young Lady Ma, they would go out of the courtyard and continue to play, only going to the door from time to time to ask when it was time to eat. The adults in the room had no choice but to laugh.
For this lunch, it was rare for so many people to gather at Cheng Family. In addition to Cheng Xi's consummate culinary skills, the whole family ate extremely happily and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious. However, there was still some regret.
Old Madam Cheng was seated at the head of the table as she muttered somewhat sorrowfully, "Sigh, I wonder how Hong'er is doing outside. Big Spring has also been gone for a few years without any news. I wonder if she will return during the new year."
Cheng Dagui hurriedly comforted his, "Mother, don't worry, they will definitely be able to return safely."
Old Madam Cheng sighed and replied, "I hope so."
Cheng Xi saw that the entire family was a little sad, and when she thought of adjusting the atmosphere, she randomly picked a topic to shift everyone's gaze, "Second Brother, did you meet any ladies you liked when you went to Prefecture City? If you have anything, then you'd better work hard. Since your little sister is already married, you should hurry up. "
As expected, the moment Cheng Xi said this, all the gazes focused on Cheng Chen's face. Although Old Madam Cheng didn't like Cheng Chen much because of her relationship with her mother and didn't normally have a good face, she was her biological grandson after all. This matter also involved the opening of the branches and leaves of their children, so she was still very concerned about him and said worriedly, "That's right, Chen Wa Zi is about seventeen years old already, and many children in our village are already fathers. You should hurry up and help him look at a daughter-in-law."
Because of Cheng Xi's change in topic, Cheng Chen who was lying on the spear helplessly looked at the main culprit, and replied, "Seventeen years old is still young. I still want to make a breakthrough in Prefecture City before considering to marry my wife. There's no rush."
Old Madam Cheng glared at Cheng Chen and scolded, "You aren't in a hurry, your father still remembers to carry his grandson. He can't be completely filial by his side, he can't possibly let his grandson not be able to carry as well, right?"
Cheng Dagui agreed as he nodded his head, "You guys earned some money when you went out, so it's time to consider this matter. Mother of the child, go and find out if there is any suitable girl in the village that can help Ah Chen and Ah Fu look at each other."
Seeing that this matter was about to happen, Cheng Chen could only say, "Father, I have a girl that I like from the Prefecture City, please do not worry about me."
However, a stubborn Cheng Cai was unable to react in time. After hearing Cheng Chen say that there was a girl he liked at Prefecture City, he placed the emphasis on this, and blurted out in shock, "Second Brother, you actually have a girl you like at Prefecture City? How come I didn't know. "
Cheng Chen happened to kick Cheng Cai under the table in time, only then did Cheng Cai react, and said with a face of realization, "Oh, I got it, so it's her. Mother, don't try to help me out too, I want to find a girl in the Prefecture City just like the Second Brother. "
Cheng Dagui was even more curious about the girl that Cheng Chen had taken a fancy to, and asked, "Which girl do you like? What did it look like? What was he doing in the Prefecture City? Have you found a matchmaker to propose to you? When can we decide? "
After answering all these questions, Cheng Xi felt dizzy just by listening to them. With guilt and sympathy, she raised his head and looked towards Second Brother Cheng Chen before obediently lowering his head and continuing to drink the soup.
Of course, Cheng Chen could not answer, and could only perfunctorily reply, "I only have my eyes on that lady and have not yet found the matchmaker. After the new year, I will go to Prefecture City, and then, I will send a message back to inform all of you."
Cheng Dagui saw that he could not figure out the reason, and could only switch his focus to Cheng Cai, "Ah Cai, you just said that you know, you have seen that girl before? What about the girl? "
Cheng Cai never thought that this old man would suddenly ask him where he was, his eyes only flashed as he scratched his head and replied, "I think, I seem to have seen him before, so …"
Seeing that Cheng Cai was unable to continue with his story, Cheng Chen hurriedly continued, "He only meets him once or twice, I have a slight impression that if you ask him, he will not be able to answer your question. Father, don't be so anxious, I know my limits, and when the time comes, I will naturally bring your daughter-in-law back."
Seeing that his father still had more questions, Cheng Xi quickly continued, "Father, Aunt Wu, we are not at home, can you please be busy with the land at home?"
Cheng Chen also quickly replied, "That's right, how about I leave a little later with Ah Fu after the new year?
Before Cheng Dagui could reply, Old Madam Cheng responded first, "All of you go out and earn money peacefully. Once you earn enough money, take your father to treat your legs properly, then there will be no need for you to worry about family matters. They will be busy as well, there will be your uncle Fourth Uncle and the rest.
Cheng Dahua agreed, "That's right. With us, you guys can go to the Prefecture City without worry. Don't worry about it at home."
He did not plan to rent out more than half of his own land to the races. He did not want to be like his second brother, Fourth Younger Brother, who was sunning himself like coal, and now that he had even married into the Lady Yu's family, he did not need to worry about his food and clothing anymore.
His thoughts, if Cheng Xi knew about this, would definitely send him a few sentences with disdain. With Uncle Zhang Shuai's face, doing what only a pretty boy would do, in conclusion, a man who eats soft food would have no future.
He originally thought that the marriage between the two had been avoided, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he came back, "Ah Fu, A Chen already has a girl he likes at Prefecture City, do you also have one?"
Cheng Cai reflexively shook his head, "I don't." After saying that, he felt so regretful that he wanted to slap himself a few times.
Sure enough, after Cheng Cai replied, Lady Wu opened her mouth and said, "Since you do not have it, I will let you look at me again in the village."
Cheng Dagui nodded his head in agreement. Old Madam Cheng did not express any opinion, since they were not her biological grandson, she would go along with them.
Cheng Cai took a glance at Cheng Chen, his mind quickly wandering, and finally thought of an excuse, "I don't want the lady from Prefecture City that Second Brother is looking for, I also need to find a girl from Prefecture City."
This time, everyone's attention was once again focused on Cheng Chen. Old Madam Cheng's eyes lit up, and said with an excited face: "The one you have your eyes on is a girl with Prefecture City?"
Before Cheng Chen could reply, Wu Xiufen excitedly added, "A lady from the Prefecture City? What does the family do? would he directly ask for you to stay in the Prefecture City as his son-in-law? "
However, Cheng Dagui was not as excited as the rest, he sternly said: "A Chen, that's our condition, if it really is the Prefecture City, we will not be able to reach it."
However, Cheng Chen disagreed with what he had said, because he had always listened to his father and never disobeyed his father's wishes, so it was not good for him to open his mouth to refute his father.
Of course Cheng Xi would not agree with that. Cheng Chen did not refute him, but Cheng Xi opened her mouth and retorted, "Father, what are you saying? Isn't it just a Prefecture City girl, how can she be that high? In the future, when we earn money, we can go buy a house in the Prefecture City. Aren't we also from there? "
It was rare that Old Madam Cheng didn't stand on the side of her own son, Cheng Dagui, but instead stood by the side of Cheng Chen and replied in agreement, "Xi is right. You guys go to the Prefecture City to earn some money, buy a courtyard there, and also bring an old lady like me over to enjoy your blessings. Be a citizen of the city this time. "
The two of them went back into the kitchen together. Lady Wu saw that Xu Sanlang had followed Cheng Xi into the kitchen, so she asked, "Why did you come in as well? If you have us here, we won't need you. You can go to the main house. "
"Okay." Xu Sanlang replied and went to the stove to heat the fire. Ma Xiufen, who was cutting vegetables behind the stove, looked at Xu Sanlang curiously. Normally, a few men would go into the kitchen, but this man was so stubborn that he stayed in the kitchen.
