"Wang Dalong, are you even talking like a human being?" Widow Liu was surprised that her usually obedient son would say something like this. "I'm a widow at such a young age, and I raised you guys, and now you want me to go again? Are you even human?"
Wang Dalong's stubborn temper came out, and he stiffened his neck and yelled, "Who is not a human? I was born by you. If I am not a human, how can you be a good person?"
"Don't hide it anymore. Everyone in the village knows about your scandals, and we're the only ones who've been kept in the dark like fools..."
"You, you..." Widow Liu was so angry at her son that she almost died.
Just when there was a big quarrel in Widow Liu's house, Ye Juaner brought good news to Mrs. Ye.
The Ye family had just finished dinner. Seeing that Qingtian was sweating all over after running around outside all day, Mrs. Ye boiled a pot of water and gave her a bath.
Just as I washed Qingtian clean and fragrant, Ye Juaner came to the door.
This time she did not go to find Old Madam Ye, but went straight to Old Madam Ye's room in the east wing.
"Eldest brother's wife, are you here?" Seeing that the door was not closed, Ye Juan'er shouted loudly outside the door and then lifted the curtain and went into the house.
Mrs. Ye had just changed Qingtian's clothes and was drying her hair.
"Auntie, you're here." Sister Ye said hurriedly, "I just gave the child a bath. Please sit down."
"Don't get up. It's more important to wipe the child's hair. Be careful not to catch a cold." Ye Juan'er gestured to Mrs. Ye not to be polite and sat down on the kang herself. "I came to ask you something. When you were outside the Great Wall, did you ever take on the job of preparing banquets for others?"
"Auntie, outside the Great Wall, they don't follow such rules. If there's a wedding or funeral, they just find a few acquaintances in the village to help.
"The host provides the meals, and after finishing the work, I can even take some food home. That's pretty good. Who would hire someone to prepare a banquet for me?"
"Then do you think you can do it?" Ye Juaner asked.
"Me? How could I have that ability?" Mrs. Ye's first reaction was to refuse.
But Qingtian immediately said, "Mom is really capable!"
Ye Juan'er also smiled and said, "That's right, since your cooking is so delicious, have you ever thought about trying some work outside?"
Mrs. Ye was a little moved by what she said, but she still felt a little inferior.
"Auntie, why are you asking this?"
"My relative is going to marry off their daughter after the autumn harvest and wants to find someone to prepare a wedding banquet. He asked me to help arrange a good chef, and I immediately thought of you!
"Five tables of food, one ounce of silver, and tell me if you'll do it!"
