Mrs. Ye felt uncomfortable being looked at by Boss Ye. She nervously tugged at her clothes and turned around to walk back.
"I told you not to make it so complicated. It's too weird, isn't it?"
Boss Ye suddenly reached out and grabbed Sister Ye’s arm and said, “No, it’s not strange, it’s so beautiful!
"When you're dressed like this, you look just as pretty as when we were first married!"
When the people around heard this, they immediately laughed and booed in a friendly manner.
Mrs. Ye's face flushed instantly. She glared at Mr. Ye in an angry tone and said, "You are already an old married couple, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Qingtian came out of the house with the other children. Seeing everyone gathered together, he quickly went back in.
"Wow, Mom, you look so beautiful today!"
"Is she really beautiful?" Mrs. Ye bent down and wanted to hug Qingtian.
But Boss Ye took the lead and picked up his daughter, saying, "I'll hold her. Don't wrinkle your clothes."
Whether Boss Ye was holding his daughter or talking, his eyes were fixed on Sister Ye without moving.
Mrs. Ye couldn't help but feel shy when she looked at her, but it actually reduced her original nervousness about the cooking competition a lot.
"Alright, it's really too late if we don't set off now!" Old Madam Ye came out of the east wing and urged, "The first competition is at noon, and the eldest son's wife will definitely be able to handle it.
"I'm having a lively chat with Wang Ge Niang, so I won't go with you."
Boss Ye said hurriedly, "Mom, that's what we meant. The first competition will be held outdoors, so you sisters shouldn't go. It would be bad if you get cold.
Originally, we weren't even planning to take the children with us, but they weren't willing to be left behind and kept clamoring to go.
I had no choice but to wrap them up tightly one by one.
Especially on Qingtian, who had just caught a cold and had a fever and had only recovered a few days ago, Boss Ye insisted on dressing her in several layers of clothes, wrapping her up like a cotton bun.
The clothes were so thick that they held up her arms and she couldn't lower them completely. When she walked, her arms were swollen and swayed.
Ye Laodao said, "Mom, Aunt Wang, I'll take you to watch the second competition this afternoon when we move inside."
"Okay, go ahead. Don't be nervous. Try your best." Old Madam Ye encouraged Sister Ye. "Even Princess Rui has praised your cooking skills. You have to believe in yourself, okay?"
"Okay, thank you, mother. I will cook well." Mrs. Ye was a little moved by what Old Lady Ye said, and her voice was slightly choked.
After a group of people left, the Wang family immediately became quiet.
Mrs. Wang stood at the door of the east wing, looking at the interaction between Old Lady Ye and Mrs. Ye with envy.
"Sister, you have such a good relationship with your wife!"
"This is my eldest daughter-in-law. When she came to live with me, it was also my first time to be a mother-in-law.
“In the beginning, there were a lot of frictions and conflicts.
"Fortunately, she is a kind and good child. As my two daughters-in-law came into my family, I gradually began to learn how to be a good mother-in-law.
“Like I just told you, this is mutual.
“I have never met my in-laws in my entire life.
"The good thing was that there were no conflicts, but the bad thing was that no one helped us, and we had a very hard time.
"But you are different from me, you have been someone's wife.
"Whenever you do something in the future, think about this: if it were your mother-in-law who did this, would you feel comfortable?
"If you can always think from other people's perspectives, I guarantee that your relationship with your mother-in-law will be better than mine."
Mrs. Wang had already felt that what Old Lady Ye said made sense, and just now, seeing how he actually got along with his daughter-in-law, she felt more and more relieved.
But she still insisted: "Alas, what else can I do besides this? I only have this one son, and I will have to rely on him for my old age. I can only bow to my daughter-in-law!"
“You…” Old Madam Ye shook her head helplessly, “If you keep thinking like this, it will only make you feel more and more uncomfortable.
"Wang Ge and Yu Mei are both very good children. You must not be ungrateful for the blessings you have."
Old Mrs. Ye said this, patted her shoulder, and turned to go into the house.
Mrs. Wang stood at the doorway for a long time, deep in thought, until she shivered in the cold wind. Then she shrank her neck, turned around and went back to the house and said, "Old sister, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you at noon..."
Since the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, the county government has been posting notices everywhere and arranging people to read them to the people, promoting this cooking competition in various ways.
After more than half a month of spread, not only did people in Fengle County know that there would be a cooking competition on Xiaonian, but even villages and towns in other surrounding counties had heard the news.
That’s why so many people came to Fengle County today.
Wang Ge led everyone and skillfully took a shortcut to the venue of today's cooking competition.
This is a large open space near the west city wall. There are no houses or shops, so it became the location of the market.
Mr. Cen had previously chosen this place as the venue for the first competition.
At this time, a circle of rope had been stretched around the open space, and a guard was standing at a distance.
Dozens of earthen stoves were also built on the open space. Next to the stove was a table with kitchen knives, cutting boards and all the seasonings that might be used on it.
Cooking competitions are not uncommon in Da Qi, and are often held in various places, so all the experience is ready.
The reason why so many people came to watch this time was probably because the winner of this competition would represent Fengle County to participate in the cooking competition in Beijing.
Secondly, it may be because the Chinese New Year is approaching and no one has any work plans, so they have more time to join in the fun.
