Chapter 703 This is... Brother Wang?
Shu Yu didn't expect that Wang Changdong would make things convenient for her without her having to explain.
She thanked him and said, "Okay, then I won't be polite."
"Don't be so polite with me. If you encounter any problems in the future, just tell Brother Wang. If I can help, I promise I'll handle it perfectly."
Shu Yu almost choked on the noodle soup. This is... Brother Wang?
As they were talking, Aunt Fang brought over Wang Changdong's noodles, put them down, and asked Shu Yu, "How does it taste? I've just arrived at the estate and I don't know the managers' tastes. If there's anything you don't like, be sure to tell me in advance."
"Aunt Fang is too modest. This tastes amazing. Luckily, Aunt Fang was transferred to the kitchen, otherwise I would never have been able to eat such delicious noodles."
Aunt Fang was a little embarrassed by the praise. "I got this job thanks to you all. If you hadn't taken Xiyue with you when you went up the mountain to hunt tigers, and let her benefit from the honor, her father and I wouldn't have received this reward."
This was the public knowledge, but Fang's parents knew that their chance encounter with the governor was due to information that Shu Yu had received beforehand.
Although it's unclear how she found out, her willingness to help Xiyue is a tremendous favor to her family.
Aunt Fang didn't chat much. She nodded to the two of them and said, "Then you two take your time eating. I'm going to the kitchen to get busy. I'll come back to clean up the dishes later."
Shu Yu hurriedly said, "By the way, Aunt Fang, I'll eat breakfast at the estate from now on, so you don't need to prepare my own meals for lunch and dinner. I'll eat at home."
The old lady in the family now enjoys cooking for her. In the past, when the family was not well-off, it was considered good if they could have some coarse flour steamed buns with pickled vegetables. There was no mention of researching recipes or anything like that.
Things are different now. Under Shu Yu's guidance, the old lady is now willing to use more oil and seasonings, and the dishes she makes are so fragrant that they make her drool.
Especially after arriving in Zhengdao Village, the old lady had nothing to do on weekdays, so she didn't need to work in the fields or sew dolls. She didn't need to gather firewood; when Zhao Xi and Meng Yunzheng were there, they had already piled up a corner of the backyard with firewood, and filled the water vat to the brim.
Aside from washing clothes and cooking by the river, she had a lot of free time. With nothing to do, she would think about improving her diet, determined to fatten her up in exile.
Knowing that Shuyu knew how to cook many dishes, she asked her to write down the recipes.
Although the old lady herself is illiterate, she has Da Hu at home. Now, whenever it's time to cook, she has Da Hu stand beside her with the recipe and read the steps to her.
If Shuyu doesn't go back to eat, the old lady will probably be angry.
Aunt Fang immediately agreed, "Okay, I'll go to the kitchen and tell the head chef."
Now she prepares breakfast at the farm, as the head chef wants to take a break and gets up late. But the head chef cooks lunch and dinner, and she helps out.
As soon as Aunt Fang left, Wang Changdong looked up and said, "You're saving money for the farm."
"No, I just want to spend more time with my family. They came all the way here for me, so of course I need to spend more time with them."
Wang Changdong nodded, "That's true."
However, when she mentioned her family, Wang Changdong suddenly thought of the Shu family.
"By the way, someone from the Shu family asked me about the Hou family mother and daughter before. The Hou family didn't even tell them about going to the post station."
