Smart guy!
Zhao Xiaoyu's cheeks were slightly red, and she reached out to pinch Li Xi's fat face, "You are so smart, tell me if I make it, will you eat it?"
"Eat, eat, eat. I love what my elder sister cooks the most. Brother Lei Zi likes it too!" Li Xi smiled and dodged her clutches. She put away the kite and left with the maid who served her.
Both of them were girls picked from the farm. Ever since they took over the place, the farmers' lives have become much better than before.
Most of the farmers wore new coarse cloth clothes without patches, while those who served them wore cotton clothes. The Song family paid them wages every month for working for them, and sometimes even gave them bonuses, so their lives were naturally better.
There were two girls serving Li Xi, one was the same age as her, and the other was two years older than Li Xi. The older one had also grown into a grown-up girl.
The two people around her will still serve her after she gets married. Anyway, there is not much difference between her getting married and not getting married. It's just that sleeping alone becomes sharing a bed with two people.
Zhao Xiaoyu went to the kitchen. It was February now and wild vegetables had just begun to sprout. There were fresh shepherd's purse and spring bamboo shoots on the stove. They must have been picked by the kitchen staff in the morning.
She rolled up her sleeves and prepared to make shepherd's purse and tofu soup and stir-fried spring bamboo shoots, as well as braised crucian carp and bighead carp soup. Fish heads are good for the brain and are especially suitable for people preparing for exams.
At the dinner table, Zhao Dashu picked up a piece of spring bamboo shoots with chopsticks and said, "The bamboo shoots are delicious now, tender and slightly sweet. I also like the light dishes my daughter makes."
"Dad, do you want me to cook for you every day?"
When Song heard this, she glanced at her man inadvertently.
"Even if you are willing, I still can't bear it. You are my daughter, I will raise you and enjoy a good life. If you are willing to do it, I won't agree. Is there a need for someone to cook at home?"
It will be the same even if they get married in the future. Xiao Lei can forget about ordering his daughter around.
"Leizi, eat more. You have been in the study since early this afternoon. You should also pay more attention to rest and don't work too hard."
"Thank you, Auntie. I'm not tired."
Li Xi ate the rice in the bowl and smiled slyly, "Brother Lei Zi, are you going to kiss my eldest sister after you pass the exam?"
Xiao Lei's hand shook and a piece of bamboo shoot fell on the table. He picked it up and put it in the bowl.
"Poof!" Zhao Xiaoyu almost spit out a mouthful of soup. Li Xi was becoming more and more outspoken. She needed to treat him properly.
Zhao Dashu frowned. Why did Li Xi keep saying that he didn't want to listen?
"Well, after the exam I'll go to the temple and ask for a good day. Leizi, do you have any ideas?"
Xiao Lei's ears turned red, "I'll listen to you in everything."
Zhao Dashu covered his heart with his hands. The cabbage he had carefully raised was finally eaten by the pig he had chosen. His heart ached!
On the day of entering the city, Zhao Lao Da and his family were waiting for the car at the door, looking around. Wang was carrying a lot of things in her hands, just because they had to eat themselves, so she had to bring rations with her.
They thought Zhao Dashu would send a mule cart to pick them up, so they waited and waited, but no mule cart came.
"What's up, Third Brother? Why hasn't the car arrived yet?"
"Yeah, it's already so late. If you don't come soon, I will have to cook lunch."
"Dad, are you sure Uncle San is coming to pick us up? Did he say he would send a car?"
Zhao Dawen thought about it carefully again and again. What did his third brother say that day? He looked at Wang and asked, "What did the servant say?"
"It seems...it seems like they said we'll meet in the county town."
Everyone: …
