"No, mother, I don't need to learn to work anymore. I have discussed it with my husband and plan to find a capable mother-in-law to go back to do housework. The reason I came here today is to ask you and dad to help find someone." Zhang Luoyi's eyes sparkled. said.
Mother Zhang's eyes widened: "Didn't you say that the Han family is very poor? Can you afford to hire your mother-in-law to work?"
"Mom, you bought it with my money..." Zhang Luoyi whispered, peeking at Zhang's mother, feeling extremely guilty.
As expected, Zhang's mother immediately became unhappy: "Why should I use your money? You are stupid. That is the dowry money I gave you at the bottom of the box. It cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary. You can use it now to subsidize your husband's family." , when your money runs out, what will you do in the future? If Han Ji changes his mind in the future and fails you, then you will have nothing to rely on! Why are you so stupid? If Han Ji can't afford slaves, then he won't buy them. You Now I'm getting tired as I get tired, and I'm still learning to work, but I can't die, so why should I stay with my husband's family?"
Zhang Luoyi, however, looked unhappy and said, "Mom, why do you always say that you are talking about the opposite? It's so ugly. I paid for my mother-in-law to do the work for me to avoid the hard work for myself. And my husband said, He will compensate me thousands of times in the future. He knows what I have done. As for whether he will change his mind in the future? Mom, you underestimate the charm of your daughter, right? My husband doesn’t know how good he is to me. He said that he would be the best in his life, and I was his only wife..."
As she spoke, she became shy and a little proud. However, when Zhang's mother saw her like this and heard her words, she felt that she was extremely confused and her face turned cold: "I think you are obsessed with Han Ji." ! Now that you are newly married, it is natural that you are in love and love each other, but in the future he will really stand out, become more knowledgeable, and get to know more ladies who can help him, he will naturally look down on you, and you will Do you believe these sweet words from men? I taught you to be too naive. Your father runs a small cloth shop and has two concubines. If Han Ji really wins the Jinshi and becomes an official, he can really keep you alone. ?”
"No, it's impossible for my husband to betray me." Zhang Luoyi bit her lip, holding back the uneasiness in her heart, and said firmly. She was in love, so she naturally felt that the relationship between the two was stronger than gold.
However, Zhang's mother has seen too many stories of affectionate women and weak lovers in the world. She does not doubt that Han Ji truly loves her daughter at this time, but she is not sure how long this love can last. No, a man's feelings are gone if he doesn't. If you put all your feelings on him, then if he really betrays her one day, Zhang's mother can't imagine how painful her daughter will be.
She could only advise her earnestly: "Silly boy, never put all your feelings on a man. Remember, you are the most important."
"Mom, I know." Zhang Luoyi replied disapprovingly. At this time, she only felt that her mother was unfounded. How could she and her husband be reduced to that situation?
"Mom, I have to get rid of you and dad about finding a mother-in-law. You must find me a diligent and honest man, and he must be quick. I don't want to wash clothes and cook anymore." Zhang Luoyi warned again.
Mother Zhang looked at her innocent appearance and sighed helplessly.
Han Ji studied at the college in the town and lived directly in the college. He only took one day off every half month. Therefore, Zhang Luoyi could only go back to the Han family alone today. However, the Zhang family felt sorry for their daughter and did not trust her to go back alone. So he asked his driver to drive her back in an ox cart.
"Mother, I'm back." Zhang Luoyi greeted Wu Shichu as soon as she entered the yard and saw Wu Shichu's figure. However, when she saw clearly what Wu Shichu was doing, her face turned pale, "Mother... you, Are you killing the chicken?"
"Yeah, I don't know what happened to this chicken. I have no energy at all today. I can't even stand up. I don't know if it's sick. I killed it quickly while it's not dead. If it's dead, I can't eat it. "It's gone." Wu Shichu said without any psychological barriers. In fact, this chicken didn't know how to be fertile, but Wu Shichu wanted to drink chicken soup, so it could only be "sick."
"Oh, that's it, but will eating sick chickens be bad for your health?" Zhang Luoyi asked with a pale face, not daring to look at the chickens being slaughtered.
"No, when I first learned to raise chickens, my skills were not good, and the chickens were sick a lot. I couldn't bear to throw them away, so I ate them with Han Ji. Don't you think we are doing well now?" Wu Shi Chuhao Said nonchalantly.
When Zhang Luoyi heard this, she immediately felt sorry for Han Jilai. While she was eating delicious and healthy chicken, her husband had to eat sick chicken that he was reluctant to throw away. This was too tragic...
Wu Shichu didn't know that his daughter-in-law was so sentimental. When he saw her standing there stupidly, he said, "If you have nothing to do, help me boil the pot of water in the house again."
"Okay." Zhang Luoyi was afraid that if she didn't agree, Wu Shichu would ask her to help turn the chicken intestines, so she immediately felt that lighting a fire was a good thing.
A few quarters of an hour later, Wu Shichu packed up the slaughtered chicken, returned to the kitchen, and asked Zhang Luoyi to light the fire. She began to fry the chicken nuggets in a large pot. She first sauteed the ginger, onion, and garlic until fragrant, and then poured down the pot of chicken nuggets. , stir-fry for more than ten times quickly, and after a while, the aroma wafted out.
Zhang Luoyi had not had a full meal in the past two days. She finally had a meal of meat at her parents' house, but she was already hungry. Now that she smelled the fragrance, her stomach growled loudly.
Wu Shichu couldn't help but chuckle: "Are you hungry? Don't worry, it's not cooked yet."
Zhang Luoyi's face turned red, she held her stomach and stammered: "I, I'm not hungry...it's just that the stir-fry is too fragrant..."
"I haven't used the cooking skills I learned when I was young. After all, our family can't always afford meat." Wu Shichu said unabashedly.
She quickly put the soaked mushrooms into the pot, poured in a spoonful of water, then put the taro pieces in, then covered the pot and let Zhang Luoyi simmer over the fire.
While Zhang Luoyi was lighting the fire, she smelled the strong aroma coming from the pot. Her stomach had begun to protest, and the saliva in her mouth began to overflow. She kept swallowing, staring longingly at the steaming edge of the pot. She had never felt that chicken was so fragrant, so she no longer felt uncomfortable even making a fire. If every meal could be made so fragrant, then she would be willing to keep making a fire.
Wu Shichu thought it was almost time, then came back to start the pot. After opening the lid, the strong aroma of meat and taro almost made Zhang Luoyi faint. She couldn't help but said: "It smells so good."
"This is my unique secret recipe. Of course it's delicious. You're in for a treat tonight." Wu Shichu said, "It's a pity that Han Ji went to the academy today and couldn't eat it."
