"He was also very kind to me. When Ling Kong was fighting with the wolf, Ye Jingxiao arrived just in time. If he hadn't arrived in time, we might have all been injured to save ourselves."
Lingkong immediately stepped out and said, "Lingkong thanks Miss and Master Ye for your kindness!"
"No need to thank me all the time, just do your own thing and don't be stupid again for the konjac field next time!"
Ning Xiaotang put a few pills into a white porcelain bottle and stored it in her space bag.
"Miss, Miss Qian Fangcao is arguing with the eldest lady in the kitchen." Quan Yue said.
"What's going on?" Ning Xiaotang immediately stared at Quan Yue in surprise.
Quan Yue immediately took a few breaths and said, "Just now when I went to deliver the bowl, I heard Concubine Qian asking someone in the kitchen for the glutinous rice balls. But the kitchen staff didn't seem to make too many, which made Concubine Qian very angry."
"So Aunt Qian was making a fuss in the kitchen because of the food?"
"That's right, the eldest lady has also gone there now." Quan Yue nodded immediately.
"Okay, let's go over and see what's going on." Ning Xiaotang immediately put away the alchemy furnace.
After a while, I arrived at the kitchen, but there were already several people standing there.
Chen Ya and her maid were here, very angry and said: "I made desserts just based on my mood at the moment, and I didn't make much food to begin with, because I didn't intend to feed everyone."
"Then why did you give Ning Xiaotang a full bowl? And when it came to me, there wasn't even a single glutinous rice ball?
"Didn't you do it on purpose?" Qian Fangcao seized on Chen Ya's words and angrily complained.
"Qian Fangcao, I told you that we didn't make enough dumplings to begin with. We didn't take the adults in the family into consideration and only fed them to the children." Chen Ya said very unhappily. Who did she blame that someone could find fault with making dumplings?
"Then why don't you make the dumplings properly and give one to everyone in the family? Is that really a good idea?"
Qian Fangcao was just unhappy. What did she have to do with this family?
She could no longer help out in the Yixiang Pavilion shop, and now Chen Ya was in charge of the kitchen, so it was difficult for her to eat alone.
Qian Fangcao really wanted Chen Ya to give up the job of managing the kitchen.
Ning Xiaotang seemed to see through Qian Fangcao's motives at a glance.
"Aunt Qian, you actually want to eat glutinous rice balls so badly. Then let's do this. Quanyue and Banyue, come here and learn how to make glutinous rice balls from Aunt Qian. Whatever glutinous rice balls you make tonight, Aunt Qian will eat them all in front of everyone!"
Qian Fangcao laughed when she heard this: "Really?"
"Of course it's real!" Ning Xiaotang smiled slightly. These glutinous rice balls are not small things. A person will feel full after eating one or two bowls on average, but eating three bowls will feel too sour and refreshing.
Half an hour later, Qian Fangcao had finished her third bowl.
After Ning Xiaotang saw the increasingly uncomfortable expression on Aunt Qian's face, she finally calmed her down in her heart.
"Tangtang, I was wrong. Can you please stop eating?" Qian Fangcao begged Tangtang with a bitter face.
"You don't want to eat anymore? How can that be? Aunt Qian has been clamoring for glutinous rice balls all night, and she's only eaten three bowls now. There are still two big bowls here. If Aunt Qian doesn't want to eat anymore? Then tomorrow I will tell the head of the family who has returned from Shuihe Town, and have him punish you severely!"
Ning Xiaotang had just finished speaking when Aunt Qian brought another bowl of dumplings and started eating.
When Qian Fangcao finally finished all five bowls of glutinous rice balls, Ning Xiaotang raised an eyebrow and said, "Everyone, please disperse! Aunt Qian has had her fill of glutinous rice balls today. If anyone wants to try some, just tell me and I'll have someone make them properly so you can enjoy as much as you want!"
Qian Fangcao held her stomach tightly. She was so full that everything looked like a round dumpling.
"Yan'er, come on, I want to go to the toilet!" Aunt Qian immediately followed Yan'er back to the courtyard.
She ate so much that she felt like vomiting, but she couldn't vomit it out.
Ning Xiaotang looked at Chen Ya at this time: "Aunt, I'm afraid Aunt Qian's purpose is not to eat glutinous rice balls, but Aunt is now in charge of the chores in the kitchen."
Chen Ya was immediately shocked: "Could it be that she wants to?"
Chen Ya immediately said gratefully: "Auntie Tangtang really appreciates your help. Thank you so much."
"You're welcome. Auntie, please go back and have some rest!" Ning Xiaotang understood clearly.
Anyone who has ever worked in the kitchen knows that as long as you use a little less oil or a little less rice, the money and food saved will go into the pocket of the person who manages the kitchen.
Whether Chen Ya's family wants her help is another matter, but Chen Erni will inevitably come to her to ask for money.
Although Fang Baihan has always been reluctant to let Chen Erni take anything back, Chen Erni still likes to take some good things back from Chen Ya.
The reason why Chen Ya is particularly grateful to Ning Xiaotang is because of this.
If Qian Fangcao continued to make a fuss, it might end up in front of the old lady Luo Xiangqin.
If this were the case, Chen Ya's power might have been taken away.
Chen Ya immediately stepped forward, squatted down, and said, "Tangtang, wait until tomorrow, Auntie will make you steamed minced pork and egg custard. I will make sure you enjoy it deliciously."
"Okay, Auntie, the minced meat and egg custard you make is my favorite."
When Ning Xiaotang was walking on the way back to the courtyard: "Girl, why did you let Qian Fangcao eat so many dumplings?" Quan Yue asked in confusion.
"If Qian Fangcao doesn't get to eat the glutinous rice balls today, she will definitely cry in front of the head of the family someday.
If she were allowed to talk nonsense, the head of the family didn't know what kind of remarks he would hear.
Rather than letting Qian Fangcao get the upper hand, why not let her have a good meal of glutinous rice balls here today!"
"Girl, girl!" Banyue immediately ran over and shouted.
"How is it?" Ning Xiaotang immediately stopped and waited.
"My dear, Concubine Qian's courtyard has invited Doctor Xu to come over. I heard Yan'er and Doctor Xu say on the way that Concubine Qian has severe stomach pains and can't vomit. She's in great pain!"
"Well, I also estimated this amount. It's just to make her uncomfortable. Now that Doctor Xu is over, I think she'll be fine after a dose of medicine."
Ban Yue said, "Young lady, you really have a clever trick. This time, Qian Fangcao will definitely learn a lesson!"
"Haha, listening to Banyue's tone, it seems as if Qian Fangcao has suffered a great loss!" Quanyue said.
"She suffered a great loss. The girl made her eat five bowls of dumplings. It would be strange if she didn't die of overeating!" Banyue was extremely excited. As long as she could let Qian Fangcao suffer a loss and feel uncomfortable for a while, she could get rid of this evil person.
Ning Xiaotang then ordered, "Ling Hu, any progress on the matter I asked you to investigate?"
"Miss, the identity of the man in black fighting Young Master Ye is still unknown.
