"Shumei, how much salt did you add to the soup? Even if you added salt by mistake, it shouldn't be so bitter." Meng Li looked at Shumei with suspicion.
"See! I told her she relied on luck, but you still didn't believe me..." Wencai certainly didn't forget to add fuel to the fire, but seeing the vicious look from the old aunt, his voice became smaller and smaller and less confident, until he couldn't even hear what he was saying.
"No? I've clearly tasted it, and it's just the right amount of salty!" Although Meng Li and Li Wenxue looked unhappy, Shumei still didn't quite believe them. She remembered tasting it herself, and it definitely couldn't be salty.
"You call this just right? You're trying to kill for money, right?" Wencai couldn't help but add fuel to the fire.
The old lady and Li Yushu also served the soup and tasted it, their reactions mirroring Meng Li and the others. The bitterness of the soup made them all look like bitter melons.
Shumei then came over to the table and scooped a little with a spoon to taste it. Oh my god! It tasted just like salt.
How could this happen? I've tasted it myself!
Shumei's eyes fell on Wencai. Although Wencai concealed it well, Shumei could still see the pride on his face.
It suddenly dawned on her that this was all Wencai's work. Wencai was trying every way to get rid of her! He had the energy to spend all this time dealing with her, but had no intention of looking for a job outside. She was really impressed by Wencai.
Alas! Even if I knew, what good would it do? If I gave him up, knowing Wencai, he would definitely bite me back. With no evidence, I could only swallow my anger. Besides, it wasn't a big deal; Sister Meng wouldn't chase me away.
"Auntie, Sister Meng, I'm sorry, maybe I really put it in accidentally."
Shumei apologized to Meng Li and the old aunt embarrassedly, and accepted Wencai's prank.
"Shumei, it's okay. Just be more careful next time." Shumei had been at the Li family for more than a day or two and had never made such a small mistake. The old lady knew it was probably her son's trick.
"Although it was a minor mistake, you must be more careful next time. I'm a mysophobe and strive for perfection in everything I do. I hired you because you were young and smart enough not to make mistakes like those other aunties. This time, there was a problem with the dish, and I don't want this to happen to Xiao Shitou. Otherwise, I'll have to hire someone else."
"Yes, Sister Meng, I will be extra careful in the future and try my best not to make mistakes."
Meng Li seemed easy to talk to, but she never expected that she had such a hobby. Her sudden harshness caught Shumei off guard.
"Okay, take the soup and pour it out! Make a new one."
"yes."
The old lady helped take the small stone from Shumei's hand, and Shumei walked towards the kitchen with the pot of spoiled soup.
Wencai knew that Meng Li had such a character, so he started with Meng Li.
Let you feel proud, then wait and see how I get rid of you. This is just the beginning, just wait and see!
After lunch, everyone sat in the living room chatting and watching TV, while Shumei was alone in the kitchen cleaning up the dishes.
While everyone was having a great time chatting, Wencai ran to the kitchen to show off his achievements to Shumei.
"Nanny, how are you? Do you know how powerful I am? Do you want to leave quietly or wait for my sister-in-law to kick you out?"
Wencai leaned against the door frame with a smug expression on his face, always paying attention to whether anyone was coming over.
"Wencai, you are smart, but unfortunately, you don't use your intelligence in the right way. If you use your intelligence for the right things, I believe you will be a useful person. Stop it! There is no point in you dealing with me."
"Why aren't you angry? Are you begging me? Are you begging me to let you go?"
Shumei really didn't want to pay attention to him and continued to work with her head down. Seeing Shumei silent, Wencai felt bored. He wanted to see her angry and furious, but he didn't expect Shumei to be so calm.
Although this first battle didn't achieve the desired effect, at least in Meng Li's heart, Shu Mei had already made a mistake. This made things much easier in the future, and Wen Cai still felt a great sense of accomplishment.
That night, Xiong Qianqian closed the door early again and rode her bicycle back to "home".
Compared to making money, pursuing love is more important. As for money, it’s enough for me. It’s more important to impress Boyi.
Learning from last night's lesson, Qianqian bought some cooked food and cooked some rice, which made a perfect meal. By the time she finished preparing all these, Boyi hadn't even returned home from work.
She thought about it and decided to go and help pick up Xiao Youchen first! That way, Boyi could have a delicious meal right after he came back.
She closed the gate with a smile and walked towards Wen Dazui's storage room, greeting the villagers with a smile along the way.
A fellow villager said, "Hey! Who was that guy just now? He looked unfamiliar. Do you know him?"
Another villager replied, "You don't know! Tang Boyi's new girlfriend, I heard this woman is very open-minded. She's already living with Tang Boyi before they even got married."
The fellow said again: "There is such a thing? Well, there are all kinds of birds in this forest. Not all women are as obedient as us."
Another fellow replied, "Isn't it? Look at him, still smiling like a flower, with no shame at all."
…
Although the villagers were pointing fingers at Qianqian behind her back, Qianqian didn't take it seriously, because this would further prove that she was a woman of talent, and at least it would not give other people the opportunity to interfere.
