Su Wan dug through a large patch of grass again, but still couldn't find any eggs.
It's really strange. The grass in the space is not actually very deep. If there were eggs, you should be able to see them even if you stand there.
But why couldn't she find even one? It was really weird.
Just then a hen came over to look for food. Su Wan bent down and grabbed the hen.
I reached out and touched its butt, but there was nothing there.
"Where are the eggs? Where did all the eggs you laid go? Or are you all the legendary hens that can't lay eggs?"
The hen was so frightened that she flapped her wings and clucked, and all the chickens around her became nervous.
There were two roosters who seemed ready to be heroes and rescue the damsel in distress. They bravely walked towards Su Wan, flapping their wings and cautiously, with their necks stretched out. They looked around with every step, very alert.
It looked like they wanted to come over and compete with Su Wan to rescue the old hen.
Seeing this, Su Wan threw the hen in the basket towards them.
The hen clucked and landed on the bed, then ran away with its tail between its legs.
When she threw the hen, all the chickens were frightened and fled in all directions. The two big roosters also fled in panic and stopped pretending to be heroes.
Su Wan took a look at them and decided not to scare them here. She went out to get some food to fill her stomach first.
Su Wan flashed out of the space, opened the door and went downstairs.
The door of the living room on the first floor was open, and Su Wan walked straight towards the door.
As soon as she came out, she saw smoke coming out of the kitchen.
Hmm? Wang Meilan is back?
Su Wan turned around and glanced at the clock on the wall. It was not yet half past five. Why did she come back so early today?
Su Wan rubbed her stomach which was growling with hunger and decided to go out for something to eat. She was afraid that if she went into the kitchen she would not be able to come out until she had prepared meal for the whole family.
Now she is ready to leave the Qin family at any time, so naturally she will no longer serve them as uncomplainingly as before.
After taking two steps towards the kitchen, she suddenly heard a groan from the kitchen. Su Wan recognized that the sound came from Qin Li.
Is Qin Li cooking?
Su Wan turned around curiously and walked towards the kitchen door. She poked her head inside and saw Qin Li rubbing her back which was blistered by the oil.
Today, Su Wan scolded Qin Li. At first, Qin Li was still angry, but after a while, she suddenly became open-minded.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with what Su Wan said to scold her. Thinking back to the two months she had lived in this family, it was true that all she did was eat, play, and sleep. She lived the life she wanted in this family.
She thought that if she sold herself badly from time to time, she could control her parents, but she never thought that her mother would actually instruct Su Wan to teach her a lesson and slap her twice.
She didn't even know who was Wang Meilan's biological father between her and Su Wan.
After she figured it out, Qin Li instantly lost her confidence. She had finally come back, and she was afraid that if she upset Wang Meilan and Qin Zhengye, they would kick her out of the house.
So after some thought, she decided to cook a meal tonight so that Wang Meilan would look at her with new eyes.
Unfortunately, when she was at the Su family, she only cooked the simplest meals. She could only put a little oil the size of a fingernail in each meal, because if she put too much, she would be scolded by Mrs. Su.
She actually had no idea how to cook such a delicate meal.
To be honest, she still admired Su Wan's talent in cooking. She could cook well after just a few days of practice.
On the contrary, she, who always claims to be a traitor, always says that she cooks for the whole family in the Su family, but in fact she can't cook any decent meals at all.
Every year during the busy farming season, the school would also be closed for students to work and earn money for their studies, but she was afraid of being tired and refused to go out.
Su 꿵Su's mother was used to her, but Old Lady Su would never get used to her and would always scold her.
In order to shut up Old Lady Su, Qin Li took the initiative to take on the task of cooking.
It doesn't matter whether the rice in that big pot with more than a dozen mouthfuls of food tastes good or not. It's just like cooking pig food. It just needs to be cooked.
Anyway, food without oil or salt is not tasty, and even if she is not a good cook, the taste is not much different from that of other people.
So Qin Li thought she could cook.
It was not until she returned to this home and saw the kitchen filled with bottles and jars of seasonings that she realized that so many things could be put into meals.
She was never good at cooking the city food, and she was burned by the greasy spots when she served it for the first time today.
Su Wan looked at her grinning face and sneered.
"You're so stupid. You even got burned while cooking. You should practice harder. What will you do when you get married?"
Seeing a dish of stir-fried pork with green peppers on the table, Su Wan walked over, picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth.
After chewing it twice, he immediately spit it out.
"Qin Li, did you kill the salt seller?"
Qin Li was stunned. She had been expecting Su Wan's praise. This dish smelled very fragrant when she cooked it, and the color was also beautiful. It could be said that it was delicious in color, aroma and taste.
Unexpectedly, Su Wan complained that she put too much salt and immediately became upset.
When she was in the Su family, whenever she cooked a delicious dish, Old Lady Su would always remind her daughters-in-law to put more salt in it, otherwise it would not be tasty enough.
When I was cooking just now, I forgot that this is the city and my family doesn't like to eat salty food.
But she was still stubborn, "It's not salty, it's just a plate of meat and vegetables, it's all finished in two bites, it's salty and delicious."
"Wow, Qin Li, you are so smart. Why didn't I think of using this trick to save money? Qin Li, I didn't expect you to be so good at living. Just wait, Mom will definitely praise you when she comes back tonight."
Su Wan's attitude suddenly changed. One second she was complaining that the dishes she cooked were too salty, and the next second she was praising her. Qin Li didn't know whether it was true or not, but seeing her sincere face, she thought Su Wan was really praising her, and she immediately became proud again.
"Qin Li, I have to go out for something, so we won't be having dinner at home. Remember to help your parents pick up more dishes at the dinner table. This will show that you are a filial daughter. I believe they will look at you with new eyes tonight."
Su Wan patted Qin Li on the shoulder and taught her the secret of pleasing Qin Li and Qin's mother.
Qin Li nodded happily and was in a very good mood.
After watching Su Wan walk out the door, she quickly started preparing the second dish.
As soon as Su Wan walked out of the alley leading to their home, she ran into Qin Zhengye and Wang Meilan who were returning from get off work.
"Dad, Mom, are you off work?" she called sweetly, looking very well behaved.
With Su Wan's teaching Qin Li in mind, Wang Meilan rarely looked at her with a happy face and said "hmm".
"Dad, Mom, I have something good to tell you. You will be able to have dinner prepared by your daughter tonight."
"You mean Lili cooked tonight?"
Wang Meilan was delighted and couldn't help but look at Su Wan twice more. Could it be that the lesson she taught Qin Li today worked?
"Dad, Mom, let me tell you, today is Qin Li's first time cooking. No matter how it tastes, you must support her, eat more, and praise her more. This will increase her enthusiasm. She will definitely do more and practice more in the future. I believe it won't take long for her to cook a good meal."
