"I know, I know." Gu Wanping swallowed her saliva. Would this old woman ask people to do exhausting work?
"Okay, that's good to know. Although you are the mother of the prefect, to me, you are just a mother-in-law who is anxious to find a wife. So no matter whether you can accept it or not, you have to do the next task I assign to you seriously. If you don't do it well, I will scold you. If you can't accept it, you should go down the mountain early. Find a matchmaker and don't let me go." Hua Pozi said.
Gu Wanping nodded when she heard that.
Qin Chaochao was about to slip away, but Gu Wanping grabbed her and said, "This is the child's aunt. It's okay for you to do what you want with confidence." Gu Wanping smiled and said, "No one can escape."
Mrs. Hua was also amused by the two people and nodded. "Of course, since you're in my house, I have the final say."
"...Can I say no?" Qin Chaochao said pitifully.
I originally thought I was here to watch the fun, but unexpectedly I became the one causing the fun.
"You, go and chop the firewood in the yard, and the man's mother, go and wash the clothes." Hua Pozi pointed to the pile of firewood in the yard and another pile of the nuns' clothes.
Qin Chaochao and Gu Wanping suddenly felt overwhelmed.
Although it was difficult, I still did it.
Hua Pozi didn't go too far. After all, it was obvious that these two people had never done any heavy work, so she agreed that the two girls could help.
"Gao Gao, come here and help me stack the firewood. I'll go get the axe." Qin Chaochao instructed her maid, and then went to get the axe herself. As soon as she picked up the axe, she felt that it was very heavy.
Just as he chopped a piece, he almost hit himself. Gu Beijian saw it from a distance, quickly said something to Yi Yami, and came over to take the axe from Qin Chaochao's hand. "Mom, let me do it. You can't do this job. Go and help Xiaomi clean the mushrooms. Kitchen work will be easier."
Qin Chaochao said with gratitude, "Thank you, son! Otherwise, I might have turned into pieces today!"
Gu Beijian listened to her and smiled. His mother protected his father very well. She didn't know anything. What else could he do? It was his own mother. He could only protect her himself.
Gu Wanping was in the pile of clothes. She didn't know how to do it at first, but under Qinglian's guidance, she became more and more skilled. Hua Pozi was drinking tea on the side, looking at the mushrooms. She had an idea in her mind and moved her gaze to Yi Yami. She saw Yi Yami throwing a lot of mushrooms. Hua Pozi stood up suddenly.
"Hey, hey, hey, little girl, this is such a waste. There are so many good mushrooms, why did you throw them away?" Mrs. Hua was anxious.
"Mother-in-law, these are all poisonous and cannot be eaten. Look at these bright red mushrooms, so red that they look like blood. Remember, don't eat any mushrooms you don't recognize, or feed them to mice. The mice will be fine after eating them, so people can eat them in small amounts. It's best to eat mushrooms you are familiar with. Don't try unfamiliar mushrooms easily, otherwise you may get sick easily..." Yiyami explained patiently.
As Yiyami spoke, he threw the red mushroom to the mouse that was trying to escape nearby. The mouse was puzzled for a moment, but still tried it, and then took the mushroom away. After a while, the mouse died and fell on the path.
When Hua Pozi saw it, her eyes widened. If it weren't for Yiya Mi, she would probably have ended up like the rat after eating it.
"Good boy, I misunderstood you. I thought you were a waste and was just about to teach you a lesson, but I didn't expect..." Mrs. Hua's voice became lower.
Yi Yami smiled and said, "It's okay, Grandma. If you survive a great disaster, you will surely be blessed. Hehehe, I'll make some more and invite the nuns next door to come and eat. I see that you have a good relationship with the head monk. What do you think?"
Hua Pozi was very satisfied with this arrangement. "You are very considerate. Let's do it this way."
Yi Yami prepared a table full of delicious dishes, separating the meat and vegetables. The vegetarian dishes were placed on the side of the nun, while the meat dishes were placed on the side of Hua Pozi, Gu Wanping, and Qin Chaochao. Because they participated in the labor, Qin Chaochao and Gu Wanping both felt that the meal was really delicious, and they had never eaten such delicious food before.
Needless to say, Hua Pozi, Master Yuekong, and other nuns were all amazed by Yiyami's cooking skills, and everyone enjoyed the meal very much.
