"Mom, I didn't delay my work. Is it me who doesn't want to remember? Why don't you go and ask your son what he did last night?"
"I know you're old, but my third brother and I aren't. You have to be considerate of the young... How can an old woman stare at her daughter-in-law's room so early in the morning?"
Old Mrs. Lu was about to lose her temper, but she didn't expect Shen Wu to scold her first. She took a closer look at that white neck. Ouch, she couldn't bear to look at her like that.
This vixen seduces her son all day long!
Mrs. Lu couldn't bear to watch: "Hurry, go change your clothes."
Chen Wu went back to the room and changed her clothes. The man was specifically looking for her neck last night. Fortunately, when she got married, "she" had cut a high-necked shirt for her, which could cover it now.
When you come out again.
I happened to run into Old Mrs. Lu coming out of Xu Yin's house, covering her forehead and groaning.
No one paid any attention to her.
Shen Wu was happy in her heart. It seemed that Old Lady Lu was punished by force. Xu Yin's temper was not as good as hers.
Breakfast this morning was made by the eldest and second sons' families.
When it was served on the table, it looked black and not very appetizing.
Even though they asked for eggs yesterday, there are more than 20 people in the Lu family, big and small, and only seven eggs were cooked today, and they were shared by the men in the family.
Shen Wu tasted the dish. Not only was it lacking in oil and water, but it also lacked salt and was a bit mushy. She was a picky person.
He looked at Lu Xuan silently.
Lu Xuan had never seen such a delicate person, thinking about his wife's complaints early in the morning.
He peeled his own eggs and placed them in Shen Wu's bowl while Mrs. Lu wasn't paying attention.
Shen Wu was not polite either.
It wasn't just Chen Wu who had complaints about the food at the table; most of the people at the table had complaints, and they weren't even picking up their chopsticks as quickly as they were yesterday, and the adults were just covering it up.
Children don’t know.
Someone at the children's table ran over and leaned over the big table to take a look, a look of disappointment in his eyes.
Staring at Chen Wu: "Aunt San, can you cook at noon?"
"Your cooking is delicious, but my aunt's and my mother's cooking is not tasty."
Wang Hua's little daughter, who was speaking, was only three years old and looked at Shen Wu eagerly.
Without noticing, Li Ping's expression had changed.
Wang Hua wasn't angry at all, she smiled innocently and said, "I don't cook well, and I'm not particular about food. As long as I can fill my stomach, that's all that matters."
"My third sister-in-law's cooking is really delicious. I like it too." He smiled a little shyly.
Li Ping was in charge of the kitchen today. When she heard this, her face turned grim: "I'm not as willing to use oil as your Third Aunt."
"Mom, Third Aunt's dishes are also delicious even if they don't use much oil."
…
Li Ping's face was gloomy when her own child exposed her shortcomings. "If I don't cook, it won't taste good. Then I'll ask your third aunt to cook for me from now on."
She was happy not to do it.
“I did make some mistakes when I was cooking.”
Chen Wu lowered her head to eat eggs, ignoring Li Ping's venting. She just felt that she was not full after today's breakfast.
She was not full, so Lu Xuan took her to the county town today. There should be food for sale there.
The book tells the story of the heroine Long Yujiao who found some ginseng in the back mountain, sold it on the black market, made some money, went to the county's state-owned restaurant to eat braised pork, and then secretly bought herself two sesame cakes, which she ate secretly when she was hungry in the middle of the night.
Thinking of this, Chen Wu glanced at Long Yujiao.
As expected of the heroine, she was very sensitive. She smiled when she felt her gaze and looked at Li Ping: "I also think that the third sister-in-law's cooking is delicious, and the eldest sister-in-law is not good at cooking."
It was Long Yujiao who said this, and Li Ping did glare at her.
The child might not have any intention of provoking others, but from Long Yujiao's words, Shen Wu felt that she was trying to provoke others.
There is a very familiar feeling in my heart.
Li Ping said sarcastically, "I don't get much good out of my work. Otherwise, let's leave the cooking to my third sister-in-law. I won't do it anymore."
He put down his bowl with a click.
Now everyone at the table looked at her, then at her and then at Chen Wu.
Chen Wu calmly ate the last bite of the egg: "Why are you mad at me? It's not me who said your cooking is bad."
"Of course, I also think your cooking is terrible."
“Puff.”
Some people in the crowd couldn't help laughing.
Chen Wu had some impression of her. He was the sixth child of the Lu family, only eighteen years old this year. He was a very sunny boy. When he saw her, he would cheerfully call her "Third Sister-in-law".
Chen Wu stared at Li Ping: "But what you said, leaving the cooking to me, is not impossible. I will cook, and you will wash the dishes and clean the kitchen in the future?"
She hated doing things like washing dishes, and Xu Yin hated it even more than she did.
Old Mrs. Lu frowned: "You are wasting too much oil and food when cooking. This is not okay."
Lu Xiaoliu raised his hand: "Mom, you guys are wasting food if your cooking is not tasty. We all have to eat food, and it feels like you are ruining the food by cooking for my sister-in-law. I am sorry for the sweat I shed every day."
His mother's cooking was not tasty, and neither were the cookings of her sisters-in-law. But when Lu Xiaoliu tasted the food cooked by Shen Wu, he was simply astonished. The mung bean water was even better than the one made by others.
He now defends to the death his right to eat delicious food.
"Big brother, third brother, fourth brother, fifth brother, don't you agree?"
"And Dad, say something too!"
The other brothers nodded slightly. Even the eldest brother felt that his wife's cooking was not that delicious. However, he did not look at Shen Wu to express his opinion. The Lu family's education made them feel that they should not interfere in matters such as cooking.
Only Lu Xuan said, "My wife's cooking is delicious."
Old Mrs. Lu wanted to say something else.
The old man interrupted: "Let the third and fourth sons do the cooking from now on, and the eldest and second sons will wash the dishes and clean the kitchen and the yard."
Li Ping wanted to ask why cleaning the yard was an additional task.
But don’t think that it is Old Lady Lu who is usually the fierce one in the Lu family. In fact, the real head of the family is the old man, and as his daughter-in-law, she really dare not argue when he gives a word.
Chen Wu was no longer afraid: "Then I'll have to trouble my sister-in-law to cook today's meal. I'm going to the county town with my third brother soon."
As he said this, he looked at Long Yujiao with a smile.
Long Yujiao had a bad feeling in her heart.
She hadn't figured out what Shen Wu was up to yet. Shen Wu smiled and said, "Long Zhiqing, I'm busy today. You said last time that you would help me when you're free. I heard from my mother that your job is respectable and leisurely. It's a good job in the village. You're going to be a primary school teacher in the future. You're an educated and good person."
"Long Zhiqing, I'll leave today's matter to you."
Mrs. Lu: ???
When did she say that? No, that wasn't what she meant. She just wanted to show off how good Long Yujiao was, but she didn't mean to ask her to wash the dishes.
Mrs. Lu: “I…”
"Long Zhiqing? You won't refuse, will you?" Chen Wu interrupted Mrs. Lu, with a hint of disappointment in her tone, as if to say, "I've misjudged you."
The smile on Long Yujiao's face was about to burst, but Shen Wu's attitude was very good, looking at her with such disappointment as if she had done something wrong. She was now in a dilemma -
