"Let's go, go back early, don't wait until the city gate is locked, you can't get out, and you have to spend money to stay in an inn." Zhang Xiaoying put the basket on her back and pulled Sister Xu Jinyu to where Wang Ren parked his carriage.
Wang Renzheng was playing around with the reins boredly. When he saw Zhang Xiaoying approaching, he quickly jumped off the carriage and went over to take the basket and put it on the carriage.
"I just went to Xiaoliuzi's house to look for you. They said you had left. I was worried that you wouldn't find me and I would leave first." Wang Rendao.
"It's so far away, how can the four of us walk back?" Zhang Xiaoying said, she took out a copper plate and gave it to Wang Ren, "Thank you for your hard work today."
"What's the matter with giving money again? Auntie, are you too open to the outside world?" Wang Ren refused, "The carriage owner and I are brothers, it doesn't matter if we use it for a while."
"Favours are favors and cannot be used up all at once. It is not easy for someone to raise a horse." Zhang Xiaoying couldn't help but said, "Just treat it as if I were renting his carriage. I will give him as much as I need. I will borrow it next time and he will be happy to do so."
.”
Seeing what Zhang Xiaoying said, Wang Ren no longer refused, let them sit down, and drove the carriage out of the city.
Zhang Xiaoying planned to wait until nightfall before going into the city to find Zhao Si.
Now with four people, it is not convenient to stay. The target is too big.
When we got home, it was already dark.
Xu Changsheng knew that his wife was disliked for cooking, so in order to avoid being beaten, he had no choice but to cook by himself.
Zhang Xiaoying raised her eyebrows slightly, wasn't this dish cooked well? If she didn't force her, the cooking would naturally fall on Liang.
"Mom, are you back?" Xu Changsheng said flatteringly, "I saw you guys didn't come back so late, and I was afraid that you would be hungry, so I just made some food. It's not as delicious as my sister-in-law's cooking. Mom, don't dislike it!"
"Not bad, let's continue next time." Zhang Xiaoying nodded with satisfaction, "It's not worse than what your sister-in-law did."
"Really?" After being beaten so many times and rarely being praised once, Xu Changsheng felt a little elated, "Mom, you're not fooling me, are you?"
"Why, I can't praise you for your job well done? Are you so itchy that you have to scold you to be happy?" Zhang Xiaoying was not happy.
"That's not true, I just can't believe it." Xu Changsheng scratched his head.
Zhang Xiaoying's cooking skills are good, and Zhang Xiaoying is very pleased with this cheap son.
"Then I will continue cooking tomorrow, sister-in-law, please don't compete with me." Xu Changsheng then said to Mrs. Liang.
Mrs. Liang looked at Zhang Xiaoying.
Zhang Xiaoying nodded, "If he wants to do it, let him do it. From now on in our family, there will be no rule that men cannot go to the kitchen. Whoever is free can go. This job is not stipulated to fall on who."
"Yes, mother." Several people said in unison.
"From the second child's house, come here." Zhang Xiaoying took out the silk flower, "It's for you."
Lin was stunned for a moment.
"Take it." Zhang Xiaoying shook the silk flower, "Don't like it?"
"No, no, I like it very much." Lin quickly took it.
Both silk flowers were chosen by Zhang Xiaoying. She thought she had good aesthetics, unlike the color chosen by Liang, which was not suitable for their skin color at all.
"Did you buy it for me?" Lin held it carefully, fearing that her rough hands would catch the silk flowers.
"Well, you and the boss are all chosen by me. There is no preference for anyone."
"The style and color are very good. I look good. Thank you, mother."
This is also Lin's first silk flower. Thinking that it was given by her mother-in-law, whom she once despised, Lin's mood is a little complicated.
"Let's eat." Zhang Xiaoying put the things away and greeted everyone.
Xu Wencong kept waiting for Zhang Xiaoying to give him something, but Zhang Xiaoying never looked at him from beginning to end.
Xu Wencong pursed his lips, feeling a little aggrieved.
But Zhang Xiaoying didn't even look at him, so it was useless for him to do anything.
There is a saying that Xu Changsheng's cooking skills are indeed better than Liang's. Zhang Xiaoying can't figure out why the original owner left the second child who cooks more delicious food and had to force the eldest daughter-in-law to do it.
Maybe this is the so-called daughter-in-law becoming a mother-in-law, using this method to show her authority?
"Second brother, where did you learn your cooking skills? I've never seen you cook at home before!" Zhang Xiaoying asked Xu Changsheng after the meal.
"I just saw other people cooking like this, so I just copied it. I just want it to taste good to my mother."
"Then have you ever thought about learning how to cook?"
"Ah? How to learn? Restaurant chefs don't easily accept apprentices. I heard that when they cook, only their trusted apprentices can watch from the side."
"Then have you ever thought about going there to study?"
Xu Changsheng scratched his head out of habit, "This...I can't find a way out. Mom, I promise not to be lazy at home in the future. Don't make things difficult for me and ask me to beg for help. I really can't bear to look like this."
Zhang Xiaoying: "..."
Forget it, it won't take a day to freeze three feet. Just make corrections slowly. You can't expect them to be successful all at once.
"I'll teach you." Zhang Xiaoying said patiently, "You study hard, and when you get good at it, I'll let you work as a cook at Fengyue Restaurant in the city. You'll get a lot of money every month."
"What? Going to be a cook in the city?" Xu Changsheng couldn't believe it.
"Well, I'm fairly familiar with the manager. If you practice hard and your skills improve, it won't be difficult to enter the restaurant."
"Mom, are you really not here to coax me? Can I be a cook with my skills?"
"Of course you won't go right away. You still have to practice. You can master the heat well, but look at your knife skills!"
"Mom, can I really do this?"
Xu Changsheng was a little dizzy after being hit.
Ever since he was disliked by his son in school that day, he has been a little frustrated. He thinks that he can just be a waste in this life, and I can beat him as long as he wants. Anyway, he can get through it by gritting his teeth.
But now my mother says that he is very good at cooking and may even work as a cook in the city... Is that something he can do?
"I said you can do it, you can do it. Why, you don't even believe it in yourself?"
"No, I just..." Xu Changsheng didn't know what to say for a moment.
Lin's mind suddenly became alive.
She has seen what her mother-in-law is capable of. If her mother-in-law said this, she must be optimistic about her man.
Lin suddenly felt that life was full of hope again.
Mrs. Liang lowered his head, feeling unhappy.
After all, the mother-in-law still prefers a second wife, otherwise why not ask her man to learn cooking and work as a cook in the city.
As soon as this thought crossed Ms. Liang's mind, she heard Zhang Xiaoying calling her.
"Boss, don't think I'm partial. I'm not a good cook. You're pretty good. But in a restaurant like that, if you go as a woman, you'll be gossiped about. I believe you're a human being and won't care. But you
Can you bear the gossip?"
Zhang Xiaoying looked at Mr. Liang steadily.
Liang was slightly shocked.
"You can't. It will be you and the boss who suffer at that time. I don't want you to part ways because of this. In this case, you shouldn't be the one to be a cook. But I don't want to waste your talent in this either. I will
I’ll teach you something else.”
Mrs. Liang's eyes suddenly widened and her voice trembled, "Mom, are you telling the truth?"
The update is completed today, have a nice weekend
