Shi Wei was a little restless. When she learned that the head chef had taken leave, she had already decided to teach this ungrateful sister-in-law a lesson on behalf of her elder brother and Sister Rong.
How many years have Sister Rong and my elder brother been together? How many years have Sister Rong and I been together?
The eldest brother was just a little nicer to Rong Li, and he was just a little more caring towards Rong Li, but this sister-in-law actually moved back to her own yard in anger.
Moreover, after Sister Rong came during the day, she moved out that night. Wasn't this an obvious way to let her mother know? So, her mother called her over and gave her a good scolding.
She couldn't swallow this humiliation, so she didn't tell her sister-in-law that the old lady from the Rong family would also come. She had praised this idea in front of Rong Li.
Rong Li smiled, tapped her forehead with his finger, and said, "You!"
Shi Wei felt like she had received a reward and felt that what she did was right. She called her own people in the kitchen, the second chef and Aunt Tian, and gave them some instructions.
Unexpectedly, knowing what Shi Wei had arranged, Rong Li decided to add fuel to the fire by being rude in front of his grandmother and himself. What was the point of the friendship between the two families?
Could it be possible that my grandmother and I could tell this story everywhere?
So not long after Mrs. Rong sat down, her daughter-in-law, Rong Li's mother, also came to visit.
Her mother-in-law was old and went to visit someone else's house alone. She, as her daughter-in-law, was watching the shop outside. When she heard the news, she rushed over to serve her. This reason naturally made sense.
But she was looking after the shop at that time, and the shopkeeper was now the eldest son of the Rong family, and his son's former classmates in college, the eldest son of the Yan family, the third son of the Wu family, and the youngest son of the Yan family were all there.
She thought that the old lady of the Shi family always liked children, and these children were classmates of Shi Yue, so she brought them along.
Although they said they were children, to the two old ladies and grandmothers, these grandchildren were naturally children. However, since they were classmates with Shi Yue, except for the youngest son of the Yan family, they all got married.
Old Mrs. Shi has a very childish nature. She likes crowds and is happy to see young people. As expected, she was happy to see these older grandchildren.
He was happy to greet one and that, and recalled the naughty behaviors of these young people when they were young, such as snatching candies from his home, stealing persimmons together, etc. After they sat down, he asked them if their grandmother was in good health now.
However, Shi Yue's mother felt that this matter was a little wrong and against etiquette, so she looked up at Rong Li's mother.
Originally, because the two mothers-in-law were close friends and their daughters and sons had been good friends since childhood, Shi Yue's mother and Rong Li's mother got along well.
But because Shi Yue's mother opposed Rong Li's marriage and quickly arranged a marriage for Shi Yue with Sun Yannan, the relationship between the two became somewhat estranged, with undercurrents surging.
On the one hand, Rong Li's mother could understand that other families did not want to marry a sickly daughter-in-law who would not live long enough, but on the other hand, she felt sorry for her daughter and could not help but resent Shi Yue's mother.
Shi Wei, who had originally intended to make a small fuss and embarrass her sister-in-law, saw so many guests coming.
As for the male relatives from the Rong, Yan, Wu and Yan families, they were still worried that if anything went wrong, their mother would probably not let them go.
After thinking about it, he found a reason to call his eldest brother out and confessed the whole thing to him, Shi Yue, but he concealed the details that Rong Li also knew.
After hearing this, Shi Yue had no choice but to send his servant to the famous restaurant in Pingchang County to order some dishes and have them delivered quickly by carriage.
The waiter said, "If we go to the restaurant to place an order at this time, it will be dinner time and there will be many diners. The restaurant may not be able to make what we want right away.
Besides, if we do this, won't our young lady still be embarrassed?"
Shi Yue said, "Please give me more money to hurry up. This is the only way I can do now."
When Rong Li saw Shi Wei calling Shi Yue out, he knew that the little girl was probably scared at the last minute and would be useless after all.
So she asked her maid to go out and see what was going on. When she came back, she passed on a few more words.
Shi Yue's servant went to the restaurant and paid extra to order food urgently, but Rong Li's maid waited for the servant to go to the side, then paid the restaurant to delay for a while and told the servant that the food could not be prepared.
Comparing the two, the restaurant felt that at this moment, it would be easier to make money from the money given by the little girl at the back.
Sun Yanan had already learned that there were more guests arriving. He counted the existing ingredients in the kitchen and made a menu in his mind. Since there were two elderly people, soft, crispy and sticky food was a must.
The food that the mother-in-law likes to eat must also be available. My husband, Master Yue, is the apple of his eye and the eyes of his mother-in-law, so the food that he likes must also be what the guest Rong Li likes to eat.
She wasn't familiar with the other guests, so the regular dishes were safer.
Among her four maidens, Xiaoye is good at making cold dishes and steaming pots.
Xiaoye has been busy here since the old lady of the Rong family came in, following Sun Yannan's instructions. The four large cold dish platters are almost ready, and she is making the steamer.
Everyone in the kitchen was looking at Sun Yanan. She knew that some of their eyes contained some gloating, while some were probably waiting to see the show.
She actually had very little to do with the kitchen's affairs. Apart from accounting for purchases and updating the menu every month, she was in charge of nothing else. If there was anything, she would just tell the housekeeper or the chef to cook.
The second chef in the kitchen and Aunt Tian, who was in charge of serving the dishes, were the father of the maid in Shi Wei's room and the sister of Shi Wei's wet nurse respectively.
Before assigning specific tasks, Sun Yannan took a piece of tofu and cut it. She was going to make a dish of shredded chicken with lotus seeds.
