Chapter 429: She is disliking him

Mingzhu naturally knew how inappropriate it was to have a chiffon cake in this era.

And as far as Mingzhu knew, Kang Jingzhi's father could go abroad frequently in the 1950s, so it was not surprising that he recognized these "foreign things" at a glance.

In order not to arouse suspicion from the other party, it is better to find an excuse so as not to cause trouble for Jiang Duo.

"What foreign stuff? This is called a cake. My husband knows that I like sweets, so he got the recipe from a friend of his who is in foreign trade. Otherwise, why do you think I would buy an oven? Since you can recognize what I'm making at a glance, you must have seen it before. How about you take a look at what I made to see if it looks like it? I haven't seen the real thing, so can you give me some comments?"

Although Kang Jingzhi still had doubts in her heart, after all, Jiang Duo's identity was there, and it was not surprising that he could come into contact with such a group of people.

His eyes fell on the cake and he gave Mingzhu a thumbs up: "It can be said that it is very well made, but I don't know how it tastes."

Mingzhu raised her chin towards the wisteria trellis: "You have eaten it before, right? Then sit down first, I'll cut you a piece, and you can help me taste it to see if it tastes authentic."

When it comes to acting, you have to act comprehensively.

Kang Jingzhi went under the wisteria trellis, and after a while, Mingzhu cut out two pieces of cake.

The big piece was given directly to Master Li: "Master Li, you have worked so hard today, you should try my cooking skills."

She brought the small piece to the stone table and pushed it in front of Kang Jingzhi.

Kang Jingzhi looked at the uneven distribution of the cakes in his and Lao Li's hands, and thought of what Jiang Duo had said before.

He is not an exception!

He suddenly felt uncomfortable. It doesn't matter if he is not an exception, but what is going on with Lao Li's trick this time?

Master Li was a man of good judgment. He immediately came over to exchange with Kang Jingzhi: "Mr. Kang, this big one is for you. I..."

"No need."

Master Li was panicking, but he didn't dare to say anything.

He respectfully wanted to help disinfect it again. Kang Jingzhi waved his hands impatiently: "No need. She is wearing gloves. Her hands have not touched the food. Go get me a spoon."

"Yes," Master Li left in a hurry.

Mingzhu saw Kang Jingzhi turning his face away from Master Li and rolled her eyes at him: "It is thanks to Master Li that we can all eat this cake today. How can you treat him like this?"

"He is my hired man and is paid by me..." "

So what? It is true that you paid him a salary, but you also enjoyed his meticulous service. Don't be so high-handed. In this day and age, everyone is equal."

Kang Jingzhi frowned: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

"No, Kang Jingzhi, I am disliking you," Mingzhu rolled her eyes at him and turned to walk towards the living room.

Kang Jingzhi was speechless. Why did she leave after scolding him: "Where are you going?"

"You are the only one who can eat the cake because you have a mouth. I can't."

Kang Jingzhi smiled sideways. How could there be such a woman in the world? He really didn't have any temper at all.

Mingzhu brought out the cut cake, sat down at the stone table, pinched it with her hands and put it into her mouth. It was sweet and refreshing, this is the taste!

She shrugged her shoulders.

Just then, Master Li handed over the spoon, Kang Jingzhi took it with his white gloves and took a bite.

Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and looked at him: "How is it, does it taste right?"

Kang Jingzhi looked at her in surprise, "Is this really your first time?"

This was her first time since she came to this era, so Mingzhu said calmly: "Of course, since you asked, it looks like it tastes good, right? I'm just an ordinary cooking expert."

Kang Jingzhi chuckled softly, "Wang Po selling melons."

"Then I have to have the melon to be qualified to sell it. You, for example, can't even sell it if you want to," she said, and looked at Master Li who was eating cake beside her and asked: "Master Li, is it delicious?"

Master Li gave Mingzhu a thumbs up: "Miss Ming's cooking skills are amazing. I've learned a lot after meeting you."

"It's mainly because you beat the egg whites well. We had a pleasant cooperation today."

This pleasant afternoon tea time made Mingzhu feel good. It would be even better if there was a cup of coffee.

No, I'm pregnant, so I can't drink coffee.

As she was thinking, footsteps came from outside the door, accompanied by a familiar woman's muttering: "Why don't you close the door in broad daylight?"

Mingzhu frowned subconsciously, and saw Feng Qiaozhen walk in from the second entrance.

When Feng Qiaozhen stepped over the threshold and saw who was sitting in the courtyard, her pupils dilated a little.

"Zhuzhu, this, this, this... why is Mr. Kang at our house?"

Mingzhu's eyes fell on her face coldly: "Our home? Ms. Feng is wrong, this is my home, my friend comes to visit my home, is it strange?"

Feng Qiaozhen's surprised eyes were still scanning back and forth on Kang Jingzhi's face. It was not strange for someone to come to the house as a guest, but if this person was Kang Jingzhi, it would be too strange.

In all these years, I haven't heard of Kang Jingzhi going to anyone's house as a guest.

Now Kang Jingzhi is not only a guest at Mingzhu's house, but he is also sitting so close to Mingzhu...

Thinking of the news she had inquired about, she was deep in thought. Could it be that it was true?

Mingzhu didn't bother to pay attention to Feng Qiaozhen's jaw-dropping look, and asked coldly: "Ms. Feng, you are arrogant and criticize other people's manners every day, but why don't you even knock on the door when you visit someone's home?"

Feng Qiaozhen retracted her wandering thoughts and thought about the purpose of her visit today. She immediately put on a flattering smile and looked at Mingzhu: "Zhuzhu, we are all members of the Jiang family, there is no need to be so formal, I..."

"It's true that we are all members of the Jiang family, but I am not familiar with Ms. Feng. Even if my door is open, I still hope that Ms. Feng can have some manners and knock on the door."

Feng Qiaozhen was used to being the boss in the Jiang family. Mingzhu scolded her about her manners again and again in front of outsiders, as if she didn't take her position as the future mistress of the Jiang family seriously. She really couldn't stand it and became a little angry.

"You kid, why are you so disrespectful in front of outsiders? I am your elder after all. Even if you come from the countryside and don't know the rules, didn't your family teach you to respect teachers?"

Mingzhu was amused by this.

"Of course my family taught me to respect teachers, but Ms. Feng, don't get it wrong. After I entered the Jiang family, you didn't give me money to change my words, which proves that you didn't accept me as your niece-in-law. You didn't accept me before, but now you come to me to act like an elder and call me your own. What's the matter? Do you have something to ask of me?"
