Zhong Daya had already put down the kitchen knife, but something seemed off about her tone.
Is it better or worse? Why does it seem like someone's acting so naive?
"Come inside and rest for a bit, I'll get you some water." With that, Zhong Daya went into the kitchen and quickly came out with a stack of bowls and a large earthenware jar. After putting the things away, she added, "Wait a moment, I'll get some sugar to make you some sugar water."
"No need to bother, we'll just have some plain water, we don't want sugary drinks." Zhao Guihua held her hand.
"Oh, then I won't take any candy," Zhong Daya poured a bowl of water for everyone and handed it out one by one. When it was Zhou Erfu's turn, she took a few more glances and shouted, "Is this the Erfu who is as strong as an ox? I remember he always grew the fastest."
Zhou Erfu was grinning, about to say it was him, when Zhong Daya continued, "This kid eats like a pig. Several of us can't eat as much as he does. He can eat so much, no wonder he's taller than the other brothers."
Zhou Erfu was so angry that he almost fell backward and dropped his teacup. But Zhou Laoda grabbed him and gestured with his eyes, "This aunt isn't very bright. If you argue with her, you'll just get angry to death."
She's not very bright, yet she knows so much. Zhou Erfu seriously suspects she was just faking her madness all along. Humph.
"This is Xiao Nannan. She's grown a bit taller. She's such a beautiful little girl. She's the prettiest little girl I've ever seen. I adore her so much. It's a pity she was adopted. We didn't have such good looks in our family."
Zhong Daya is perfectly sober, but too sober. She says everything without fear of offending anyone, and she argues with everyone she meets, not stopping until she has offended them all.
"My husband and I are ugly too, we couldn't have given birth to such a beautiful girl. None of my three children are as pretty as her, and none of your five are as pretty as her. Guizhi's Ruru is pretty too, but that girl looks down on me, I don't like her, hmph." Zhong Daya seemed unable to stop, talking about whoever came to mind.
Since she's clearly out of her mind, nobody paid her any attention and treated her like she was talking nonsense.
If she were normal, and dared to speak like that, her mouth would be torn apart.
"You must all be hungry. I'll go cook. I'm a really good cook now. Last time Guizhi came, she was in charge of the cooking, and I secretly learned a few tricks. I can also make that bayberry stew with pork. Later, when the master and I have saved up enough money..."
We'll open a restaurant too, and we'll definitely make more money than Zhao Guizhi. Zhao Guihua, come help me in the kitchen, I'll teach you how to cook, and then you can open your own restaurant and make a lot of money. My Li Qian sells vegetables at the market now, and he earns two taels of silver a month. Isn't he very capable…”
Zhao Guihua was forcibly pulled into the kitchen by Zhong Daya. Zhong Daya didn't even need to light the fire, as she knew how to do it herself. Instead, she insisted on teaching Zhao Guihua how to chop and cook vegetables. But Zhao Guihua already knew how to make all the dishes, so there was no need for her to teach her.
"I learned all of these from Guizhi. Don't tell her I secretly learned them." Zhong Daya is much more normal than before and can even do a lot of housework, but her speech is still incoherent.
Zhao Guizhi actually taught her how to cook, but she insisted that she learned it secretly, telling everyone this, which was both laughable and absurd.
The topic of Zhong Dadu wanting to open a restaurant came up when Zhao Guizhi and Chen Shunping were chatting with Li Qian. They said that the couple wanted to open their own restaurant in the future, and Li Qian could also buy a shop and do business when he had the capital.
When Zhong Daya heard this, she started clamoring all day long to secretly learn how to cook and to open her own restaurant to make money.
