After circling back home, she almost couldn't find her way home. The alleys extended in all directions. Chen Yuanyuan, a roadie, was in trouble online. She finally got home. It was already dark and she was hungry.
There were people talking and laughing in the hall, and there was also the smell of vegetables. The mother-in-law and a middle-aged woman were sitting there, and there was a young woman next to them. They were talking and laughing, pouring tea to each other. The middle-aged woman asked, "Where is your daughter-in-law?"
"She went out after eating today, and I don't know where she went. I don't care about her, Tian Tianye. She didn't go out in the house a while ago, and she didn't talk about cooking at home. She went out today, and it's just right not to come back. I have nothing to eat when I go home."
The woman smiled sweetly, "My daughter will definitely honor her mother-in-law and help the family when she marries Ziyou. Hey, my girl either can't find a good girl, or she admires Ziyou's literary talent. If she hadn't insisted, I wouldn't have agreed. It’s about this marriage.”
Mrs. Cheng quickly said, "Both of my sons are trying their best. My master said that he will definitely come out on top in the Bianjing exam this time."
Good guy, it turns out that the second wife I found for my husband-in-law is here as a guest. No wonder my usually stingy mother-in-law has prepared meat and vegetables in the kitchen.
Chen Yuanyuan debated whether to go and meet them, mainly because she wanted to see Bagua, not just for the new roast chicken on the table.
She went to the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks, then opened the door curtain politely and went in. She sat at the dining table and called sweetly, "Hello, mother, I'm late. Dinner is already served." Her voice was brisk, her movements were quick, and she was taking care of herself. Serve your own food.
Mrs. Cheng looked dissatisfied and frowned. She looked at Chen Yuanyuan who had just barged in. The corners of her mouth drooped slightly. She didn't know the etiquette. Why didn't she notice it before? The daughter-in-law here really didn't treat her as an outsider, and she didn't treat her as an outsider in front of other people. I wanted to drive her away directly, so I replied quietly "Yeah".
The woman next to her had a fake smile on her face, "This is Yuanyuan, I heard your mother-in-law said you can't give birth. Our Xiu'er will marry into the Su family in the future, so you two should get along well." Mrs. Cheng had told her a long time ago that her daughter-in-law was just a decoration and could no longer have children. She and her son did not live in the same room. She stayed in her own room every day and rarely went out, but the woman still couldn't help but want to beat her.
Chen Yuanyuan was not annoyed. Seeing that no one was touching the roast chicken on the table, she broke off a chicken leg to reward herself. I love chicken, and chicken loves me.
As for Su Che, he was no different from a stranger in her eyes. If you want to marry, you can marry Hao Nao.
Oops, she can have a banquet when she gets married. I don’t know if she can prepare a banquet if she marries a second wife. She has never had an ancient banquet. Do you have big elbows?
Thinking about it, her mouth was watering. Chen Yuanyuan touched the non-existent crystal near her lips with her hand, "Miss Xiu'er, when will you marry in?" Eat a feast, eat a feast, I want to eat a feast.
Seeing that Chen Yuanyuan didn't object as before, Mrs. Cheng felt a little better. She thought she knew what was going on and said, "Let's wait until Ziyou comes back. Then we will need to bring a matchmaker to propose marriage." Although you are marrying an equal wife, you still have to go through the proper rituals. From a scholarly family, naturally you cannot be laughed at by others.
Although Xiu'er didn't understand why Chen Yuanyuan seemed to be so easy to talk to, she didn't think much about it. Seeing that she was eating happily, she took the initiative to pick up some food for her, "Sister, try this. This is a specialty from my hometown brought here by my mother."
Although this Xiu'er doesn't look very good, she's quite likable, and she actually served me some food.
Chen Yuanyuan felt delighted and happily responded, "Sister, you can eat it yourself."
At the dinner table, Xiuer also thoughtfully said, "I heard that my sister is not feeling well. I can come here to cook and take care of the housework when I have nothing to do. Sister, please take good care of your health."
Xiu'er really wanted to have a good relationship with Chen Yuanyuan. She thought that the three of them would live a prosperous life together in the future.
She expressed her approval. Several of tonight's dishes were cooked by Xiu'er, and I have to say they were really delicious.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yuanyuan did not make a fuss, but accepted it calmly, and Mrs. Cheng did not embarrass her any more. After the meal, she wiped her mouth and prepared to go to the study, while Xiu'er stayed behind to clean up the dishes.
If you want to ask why it was the newcomer Xiu'er who took care of it, it was because she wanted to show her kindness in front of her future mother-in-law, so she had to take the initiative to take care of it herself.
It was a good time to have some leisure time, otherwise Cheng would have asked Chen Yuanyuan to take care of it.
In the study, she successfully found rice paper, brushes, ink and inkstones for calligraphy and painting. Thanks to Su Che and Su Shi, who also like to draw, they have a lot of these things at home, but there are no colored paints because they prefer black and white ink paintings.
I packed up the things I needed and lay down on the bed to rest. I had to go draw pictures for Hu Panpan tomorrow.
If you want to make money and work hard, it is best to find a maid like Xiu'er in the future to cook and wash dishes for you, so that she can also enjoy the freedom of ancient men.
