Chapter 137 She Did It On Purpose
Xia Youcai turned to the pear blossoms and summer rice flowers:
"We are family, so I won't be polite to you.
Although this meat pie was made last night, it is made with pure meat filling, with only a little chopped green onion for seasoning. It is very delicious, and has plenty of oil and water to fill you up."
Xia Daohua smiled sweetly at Xia Youcai: "Thank you, uncle." She then gave Liu a smug look, which immediately made Liu fall backwards with anger.
This damn kid! A jinx!
However, since Xia Youcai had spoken, she dared not disobey.
It's a pity that the best meat pie has to be eaten by these two little bitches! Just think of it as feeding it to the dogs!
Liu went to the kitchen angrily, full of anger, and went to Zhu who was wiping her tears:
"Okay, Dalang is not at home, who are you showing off your shameless look to? You're going to corrupt Ah Liu!
Besides, didn't I ask you to serve the porridge? Where's the porridge? Where did you serve it?
Your dad said to heat up the meat patties from last night and give them to those two little hooves!
Hurry up and clean up your cat urine! Heat up the meat patties, serve some porridge, and treat those two well! Otherwise they will talk nonsense and then go to your grandparents and make fun of our family!"
Liu rushed into the kitchen like a whirlwind, scolded Zhu, and quickly left.
She was almost driven crazy by Xia Daohua, and once again deeply felt that this girl's presence would definitely hinder her family's plans.
So, how can we get rid of this scourge?
Of course, if she really had to kill someone, she wouldn't have the courage to do so.
In the end, Yinhua admitted to Xia Daohua that she had pushed her down, crying.
It seems that Xia Daohua can't remember anything at all, but there's no guarantee that she might suddenly recover her memory one day.
Liu had thought about getting rid of the summer rice flowers once and for all.
It saves you from being in suspense all the time.
But firstly, she couldn't find a suitable opportunity, nor did she have the right means, and secondly, she really didn't have the courage to do it.
When Liu thought about killing someone or seeing Xia Daohua's corpse, she couldn't help but feel panicky and her legs went weak.
Before he could even start, he started trembling.
If it weren't for this difference, she would have dealt with Xia Daohua the first time Xia Daohua ruined her plan.
Liu went to the back angrily. As soon as she entered her bedroom, she saw Xia Youcai sitting on the kang with a gloomy face and in a daze. Liu couldn't help but wake him up with a voice:
"Youcai, Daohua is such a shameless girl, she insisted on coming here and followed me here on her own. I didn't want to bring her, and Lihua refused to come, so I had no choice but to bring her along.
You said Daohua, this girl, is so thick-skinned and has such a bad mouth, who did she take after? I have seen the couple in the fourth room, and they are not of this character!
I don't feel bad about the little food she eats, but I'm afraid that when the Dai family comes, this girl will probably get in the way. Should we find a reason to send her back to the village?"
Xia Youcai shook his head and said:
"No. Sending her back would make us look too stingy towards our niece. If we upset the two old men, we would lose money.
It is better to treat her well and treat her well. If she gets angry and says something mean to you, just bear with her. For Jinhua's sake, we must put the overall situation first. I am afraid that she will get in the way, so I will think of a way to lure her away."
Xia Youcai dared to say this because he had made up his mind. There is no child who does not like new things.
What's more, this girl, Daohua, is obviously a greedy person.
At that time, as long as you are willing to spend a few copper coins, take her out shopping, and buy her some snacks, it will be enough to keep her outside for an hour or two.
By the time she comes back after having enough fun, the matter will probably have been settled.
No matter how cute and clever this girl is, what can she do?
If it really doesn't work...
Xia Youcai's eyes, intentionally or unintentionally, swept over a locked box at the head of his kang.
On the surface, the box was filled with many rags, but in fact, there were a lot of bottles and jars hidden underneath. They were all kinds of medicine powders he got from those scoundrels in the underworld.
Xia Youcai is a thoughtful man. The reason why he collected a lot of these things is mainly to use them in appropriate occasions.
For example, when Lao Xie competed with him for the position of the second manager of the restaurant, he quietly seized the opportunity and used some of his resources for Lao Xie.
As a result, on the day when the boss came to the store to check the accounts, Old Xie lost all his money in front of him.
The boss was so irritated that he vomited.
The boss was so angry that he kicked Old Xie out on the spot.
Old Xie flew out from the railing on the second floor and fell on the street. Although he was not killed, his leg was broken and he could never compete with him again.
After the boss fired Lao Xie, Xia Youcai went to Lao Xie's home to visit him. He brought him a box of snacks and a glutinous rice dumpling, said a lot of comforting words, and left some copper coins for Lao Xie when he left.
Mr. Xie was moved to tears.
He just felt that Xia Youcai was the only good person in the entire restaurant.
Xia Youcai smiled sinisterly - if by any chance, that girl Daohua refused to go out shopping, he would give her some of the medicine powder in the white porcelain bottle - that was the best knockout drug, which sold for two taels of silver a bottle!
It can make people dizzy without causing any harm to the body or turning them into fools.
Having made up his mind, Xia Youcai felt relaxed and confident.
When Liu saw that Xia Youcai seemed to have everything under control, she felt relieved.
She knew that the boss was a tough guy. Since Xia Youcai had decided on the rules, she'd better not say anything and just do as he said.
Liu came out from the back and saw Lihua and Daohua had finished eating the meat pies and were chatting and laughing with Zhu.
Maybe it was because they were full, but they looked much more energetic. They washed their faces and hands, and dusted off their bodies.
Liu came over and was about to speak when she saw Jinhua holding a pile of flower patterns and walking towards her quickly.
Several women simply gathered together to choose patterns for the embroidered screen.
After much selection, the final pattern decided upon was eight auspicious pictures of happiness and longevity - the golden flowers had to be embroidered on four screens, and each screen had to be double-sided, so the workload increased instantly.
The summer rice flowers were not shy at all and joined in happily:
"Since time is of the essence, why choose something so complicated? We can just pick something simpler, as long as it means good luck!"
Jinhua couldn't help but grit her teeth secretly.
She chose the complicated pattern on purpose.
It’s a very simple picture. What if Lihua finishes embroidering it in two days and leaves immediately, but the Dai family hasn’t come yet? What should she do?
But facing Xia Daohua's question, she could only put on a smile:
"Alas, if the pattern is too simple, won't it show my sincerity? The pattern must be complicated and embroidered beautifully so that my mother-in-law will be impressed!"
Good night, sweet dreams, see you tomorrow.
