Su Miaomiao is more confident in the apprentices she has personally trained. She said that in order to test their learning results, she can really resist helping them and let them play freely.
About half an hour later, the skinny Liu Na came over and asked her.
"Master, they asked you if you wanted to eat lunch in the courtyard or inside."
Liu Na spoke respectfully.
Even though she is not good at speaking, Su Miaomiao can feel that she has a good heart and is easy to get along with.
Su Miaomiao turned her head to look at Xiao Yunfei and the others, then answered with a kind smile.
"Let's eat in the yard. It's windy outside today, and it feels quite comfortable blowing on my body."
"Okay, got it."
Liu Na responded and hurried back to the house.
Not long after, the delicious meal was served.
In order to perform well and not embarrass their chef, Li Changsheng and Zhang Wenhong tried their best to cook their best dishes.
The table was filled with food, and the aroma filled my nose.
Mr. Kong put away the chessboard early, washed his hands and sat down to wait for dinner. When he saw a large table of food, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Not bad, really good. The dishes they made are all my favorites. The colors look good too. I can tell at a glance that they inherited Chef Su's true skills."
Su Miaomiao was quite confident in the dishes cooked by her apprentices. She smiled when she heard what Master Kong said.
"Master Kong, you are an expert in food. Please try it and see how it tastes. If there is anything you are not satisfied with, please let me know and I will help them make some changes when we get back."
"Hey, Chef Su, please stop flattering me. I'm not an expert in front of you. At most, I can offer some suggestions, and they may not be correct. I believe your apprentice will not let me down."
As they were talking, everyone had already sat down at the table, only Liu Na was still busy, sometimes getting cups, sometimes getting drinks, and sometimes bringing wine.
Liu Na had taken everything she needed, but she showed no intention of sitting down.
She stood obediently by and spoke a little awkwardly.
"If you need anything, just tell me and I'll get it for you. There's still some leftover food in the pot, but it can still be filled."
Seeing that Mr. Kong had started eating, Li Changsheng and Zhang Wenhong also picked up their chopsticks and prepared to eat.
Su Miaomiao saw this and waved her hand and said to Liu Na.
"You've worked hard, come sit down and eat with us."
"No, no, I'm not hungry. You guys eat first. I'll be waiting for you. I'll eat after you finish eating."
Liu Na waved her hands repeatedly and took two steps back while speaking.
As a woman, she was used to standing aside and serving guests when they came to her house. This was always the case. Moreover, the guests coming today were all distinguished guests. She didn't dare to sit down rashly, lest people would think she was being disrespectful.
Eating later is nothing to her. As long as these noble people can help her man make money and learn skills, she is willing to do anything.
She thought Su Miaomiao was just being polite and mentioned it casually, and that the matter would be over after she said that. However, she didn't expect Su Miaomiao's subsequent behavior to be beyond her expectations.
Su Miaomiao glanced at Li Changsheng and asked in a cold voice.
"Women are not allowed to sit at the table for dinner. Is this the rule in your family? Who made this rule? Is it you?"
Su Miaomiao did not show any anger, but people who knew her knew that if she answered this question poorly, she would be angry soon.
Li Changsheng immediately put down the dish he had just picked up, sat up straight and said.
"No, I haven't set any rules. Normally, we all eat together at the table. Occasionally, when guests come, my wife eats a little later to accommodate them. And I don't ask her to do this; it's her own choice."
Li Changsheng was so eager to survive that he almost had these words written on his face: "Don't blame my master for this, and don't blame me."
Seeing that something was wrong, Liu Na quickly spoke up to defend her man.
"Yes, it's not that the master didn't let me sit at the table. Master, please don't blame him. I did it on my own will."
In ancient times, women had a relatively low status and were not allowed to sit at the table to eat. This feudal custom was commonplace.
If it were someone else, Su Miaomiao would naturally not be interested in interfering, but as Li Changsheng was her apprentice, she had the responsibility to discipline him.
Even if she can't control others, can't she control her own apprentice?
At this moment, her eyes swept over Li Changsheng and Liu Na, and then she spoke lightly.
"I will not allow the feudal custom of not allowing women to sit at the table to appear in the people around me."
As she spoke, she looked up at Li Changsheng.
"This is the first time, so I don't need to say anything. Now, let your wife sit down and eat well. Today's incident is over. If I encounter this again in the future, you stand by and watch while your wife sits down to eat. This won't happen again. If I encounter this situation three times, our relationship as master and apprentice will be over."
Her words were quite harsh. Li Changsheng was sweating profusely after hearing them and quickly stood up to make room for Liu Na.
"Wife, please sit down."
As he spoke, he found a stool and sat down next to the table, looking at Su Miaomiao eagerly and speaking flatteringly.
"Master, I've asked her to sit down. Please calm down."
Su Miaomiao didn't respond, but directly expressed her thoughts seriously to her two disciples.
"I value character the most. Ability and other things can be put aside. If you don't have good character, you will be sentenced to death. So if you want to be my apprentice, you must first have good character. Anyone who dares to look down on women and treats his wife badly is not worthy of being my apprentice."
