Chapter 39 Be careful or I’ll hit you



Wen Tang also raised his hand, "Mom, you take a rest at noon, I'll light the fire."

Originally, Chi Yue said she could cook fish, and Zhong Meixian didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but when Wen Tang asked to light the fire...

Zhong Meixian immediately shook her head. "Just tell me what you two want to eat and I'll make it."

The two of them ran to the kitchen like bandits.

Wen Tang even assured Zhong Meixian, "Don't worry, Mom. We'll get better the second time. I guarantee we won't burn the kitchen down this time!"

Chi Yue also helped Wen Tang speak, "Grandma, don't worry, I'm watching over you!"

Gu Yanli took a stool in his hand and sat down at the kitchen door. "I'll sit here and watch too."

He was really prepared to rescue people in case of fire.

Smoke rose from the kitchen, and Gu Jinfeng and the others returned from the fields.

Seeing Zhong Meixian sitting at the courtyard gate and the smoke rising from the chimney, Gu Jinfeng said as soon as she reached the door, "Is Yan Li cooking today?"

Zhong Meixian quickly signaled her to be quiet, and then signaled Gu Jinfeng to squat down.

As soon as Gu Jinfeng squatted down, Zhong Meixian pointed at the kitchen and said exaggeratedly, "It's those two!"

Gu Jinfeng was very surprised. "The two of them?"

Gu Jinfeng couldn't believe it.

"Yes, your brother caught the fish and was worried that my cooking wouldn't be tasty, so he cooked it himself!"

Gu Jinfeng understood, "So it's because of greed."

Zhong Meixian quickly patted her and signaled her to shut up.

Gu Jinfeng covered her arm that was hurt by the slap, without waiting for her to show her teeth.

Zhong Meixian whispered to her, "Just shut up, or I'll hit you!"

Then the old lady sent her to return the things. Sister Luo Tian came to the house, and because Luo Qiao said something unpleasant, Wen Tang and Chi Yue rushed up and beat him up, and told her about it.

Gu Jinfeng was stunned after hearing this, "Really...really fighting?"

Zhong Meixian nodded. "Yes, your daughter-in-law..." Zhong Meixian said this, and glanced back, afraid that Chi Yue or Wen Tang would appear behind her. "She was very ruthless," Zhong Meixian said, jerking her head forward and imitating. "She bumped into her like that, and the educated youth fell to the ground."

"If I hadn't stopped them, they would have gone up and beaten him up!"

In fact, she went to stop them because she was afraid that Luo Qiao and Luo Tian would fight back and Wen Tang and Chi Yue would suffer, but now that she learned it from Gu Jinfeng, she exaggerated it.

But the result of her exaggeration was that Gu Jinfeng was stunned.

When Wen Tang said the meal was ready, Gu Jinfeng immediately put on a big smile and said, "Hey, sister-in-law, did you and Xiaoyue cook this meal?"

"I was wondering, I could smell the aroma from so far away, I thought someone was having another banquet!"

"It turns out our chef is in charge."

Zhong Meixian “…”

If you can say that, where are you going to apply for the job?

Besides, I've said it all, what did she say?

"What kind of dish did you two make? Why does it smell so good?"

Everyone likes to hear nice words, and Wen Tang loves to hear them. Wen Tang smiled and pointed at the fish that had been put into the basin, "This is the fish that Yan Li caught. Yueyue grilled it. It has a spicy flavor and it smells so good!"

Gu Jinfeng simply gave a thumbs up and said, "Yueyue's cooking skills are better than mine. I have been cooking for my entire life, but I have never been able to cook such a delicious fish."

Chi Yue also smiled and said, "If mom wants to eat it, I will cook it next time if you prepare fish."

Gu Jinfeng kept nodding, "Okay, okay, okay."

Zhong Meixian also stood at the kitchen door. Because her daughter had already said all the praises, Zhong Meixian could only say, "It smells good, it smells good!"

Chi Yue's spicy fish was indeed well cooked. At the dinner table, even the taciturn Gu Juyuan and Lin Liansheng, the father-in-law and son-in-law, praised it, saying, "The fish is cooked deliciously, it's cooked deliciously."

Although the fish was big, there were many people eating there, and each person took one chopstick, so the fish meat was gone quickly.

Zhong Meixian had eaten most of the fish when she finally remembered to say, "Shen Jing, Jiao Jiao, Shu He and the others will be back in the evening. Should we leave some for them?"

Zhong Meixian looked at the fish meat that was already very scarce and said, "There's still quite a bit of meat in the fish head."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yanli picked up half of the fish head with his chopsticks and put it in her bowl, "Aren't there still two?"

"Just make another one tonight."

Food can fill your mouth, especially the food you love.

Zhong Meixian likes to eat fish heads. She thinks they are tasty and the meat inside is tender, so she likes to eat them.

After putting one third of the fish head into her bowl, Zhong Meixian wanted to say nothing.

What are you talking about? It’s not enough to eat anyway, so just eat as much as you want!

Then everyone continued eating.

Wen Tang also said, "It would be delicious if we put some bean sprouts and tofu in it."

“Lotus root would be fine too!”

Zhong Meixian and Gu Jinfeng, mother and daughter, looked at each other and read the same meaning from each other's eyes, that is, this girl is indeed a glutton.

But now they dare not speak out.

They were silent, and then Gu Yanli said, "I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative this afternoon."

Zhong Meixian gave Gu Jinfeng another look: You see, it's all his fault.

Gu Jinfeng didn't dare to respond to her this time. She didn't forget what Zhong Meixian told her before dinner, that Wen Tang and Chi Yue really beat people up.

He even dared to beat the educated youth from the city, and knocked them to the ground as soon as he came up.

The educated youth in the city are so good at beating people, so if the two of them team up to beat her, the mother-in-law/sister-in-law, wouldn't it be even easier?

Gu Jinfeng buried her head in eating.

Also, the food my daughter-in-law cooks is really delicious.

She can be said to be enjoying the blessing of being a daughter-in-law!

Gu Jinfeng felt happy when she thought about it.

In this comparison, she is more fortunate than her mother. The daughters-in-law her mother married were lazy and greedy, but it is not the case with their family. Their daughters-in-law are quite good at cooking!

With this comparison, doesn't she feel blessed?

Gu Jinfeng was thinking about it and almost hummed a song at the dinner table.

Gu Jinfeng was born to Zhong Meixian, and they had lived together for decades. Zhong Meixian knew Gu Jinfeng so well that she knew what she was doing no matter how she moved her butt.

Seeing the expression on Gu Jinfeng's face, Zhong Meixian immediately thought of the contrast between the two new daughters-in-law.

Thinking of this, Zhong Meixian felt that the fish head in the bowl was no longer fragrant.

She doesn't want to eat at the same table with her daughter's family next time.

Gu Jinfeng had no idea what she was thinking. She just finished her meal happily and then stood up. "I'll clean up the dishes. You two don't need to move. You two cooked lunch. I'll wash the dishes." Gu Jinfeng hummed a song and got busy.

Gu Jinfeng hummed a song and walked out of the main room with her bowl and chopsticks.

Zhong Meixian tutted unhappily from behind, "Look how proud she is."

Wen Tang really didn't understand why her elder sister-in-law was so proud, but she loved gossip, so she approached her mother-in-law and asked, "Mom, what is your elder sister-in-law so proud of?"

Zhong Meixian “…”

What are you proud of?

Is she proud that her Lin family has a daughter-in-law who can cook, while her Gu family has nothing?

But it was hard for Zhong Meixian to say this!

While Zhong Meixian was silent, Wen Tang had already run back to the house and grabbed a handful of melon seeds for her. He cracked one and continued to ask, "Mom, tell me!"

Just as Wen Tang finished speaking, a voice came from the front door of the Gu family, "Jinfeng, is Jinfeng home?"
