Chapter 40: One More More
"The good ones began to say unlucky things again." Yan Zhenzhen said dissatisfiedly: "Grandfather, you will definitely live a hundred years." β
She herself knows that people are born, old, sick and die.
But the more she gets along with the old lady, the more reluctant she is to be the old fox.
"Silly boy, where in this world can anyone really live a hundred years?" Master Yan waved his hand, not wanting to continue talking about this topic: "Ah Zhou, go and see, what is the cook rubbing?" After so long, the meal hasn't been good? β
Zhou Bo had to go to the small kitchen to have a look.
In the courtyard, only Yan Zhenzhen was left to accompany Yan Taishi: "It's useless to change the topic, you are the respected Taishi, ranked as the third duke, and you are the real Dinghai Divine Needle of the Yan family." When I was in the countryside, my neighbors used to say that if there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, you can only live a long life, which is the real blessing for us as children and grandchildren. β
"In the entire Yan family, no one has the transparency you can see, how can these short-sighted guys be qualified to scorn you?" Master Yan sighed softly, the entire Yan family, I am afraid that only Yan Zhenzhen is a blessed person, growing up in the countryside, carefree until the age of sixteen: "I hope you keep your heart and be the same." β
"Of course, I'm not going to be affected by these intrigues." Yan Zhenzhen sighed secretly, everyone thought that she grew up in the countryside, so she should be typing not one, and she didn't know if it was a word.
In fact, she has been with her five brothers for a long time, and she has learned a lot from them. There are also private school gentlemen in Xiaoniu Village, and in the Qiankun School, the master will also teach all kinds of knowledge.
"Ah Zhou, I'm having dinner in the yard with Zhen Zhen today." Master Yan instructed Zhou Bo, who had just walked back from the small bamboo forest.
Zhou Bo originally asked the old lady to move to the dining room, but when he heard Master Yan's order, he went to the dining room to bring the food to the stone table under the pine tree.
Two golden-looking steamed dishes, a porridge.
Thin strips of dough float in the porridge.
It's very appetizing to look at.
Master Yan looked at the dishes on the table: "Where did you learn all these tricks?" β
Yan Zhenzhen changed the pattern of the dish for him every time, and it was not the same every time, that is, the porridge was never the same every time.
"Maverick Village!" Yan Zhenzhen added: "There is also the Qiankun faction, I have a senior brother, his family moved from the north to the south, and then he did not adapt to the life in the south, so he moved to the Qiankun faction, he can cook food from the south and the north, I learned from him." β
Zhou Bo served his meal and stepped aside.
After a while, a steward hurriedly came, holding a tray in his hand, he said a few words to Zhou Bo, handed the tray to Zhou Bo and retreated.
After Zhou Bo waited for the grandparents and grandchildren to eat, he took away the dishes and chopsticks and put the tray on the stone table.
"Uncle Zhou, what is this?" The things in the tray, Yan Zhenzhen didn't know, and she didn't know what Zhou Bo brought this thing for.
Master Yan glanced at it, and then smiled: "Ah Zhou, tell Zhen Zhen." β
"Miss, two cards are against each other." Zhou Bo picked up one of the pairs of cards, pointed to the key hanging on the pair of cards, and said, "This is the key to the kitchen warehouse." β
"Huh? Aren't these things held by Grandma Ge, who should be in charge of the kitchen? "She was amazed.
This thing can't be for the old lady or Zhou Bo.
The affairs in the kitchen belong to the affairs of the back house, and her cheap mother-in-law will not use this kind of thing to trouble her elderly father-in-law.
"Miss, this is for you." Zhou Bo was very happy: "Miss Jiajia suggested to the eldest lady that in order for the young lady to adapt to the life at home faster and better, I want you to learn to manage the kitchen with Grandma Ge, and the lady agreed." β
Yan Jiajia again?
What's there to be happy about in such a thing?
But whenever Yan Jiajia proposes, I'm afraid that there are countless traps waiting for him.
"Uncle Zhou, this is not a good thing, why doesn't Yan Jiajia learn to manage the kitchen by himself?" Yan Zhenzhen is now asking someone to throw the contents of this tray in Yan Jiajia's face: "Also, what is there to learn from managing the kitchen?" Why doesn't Jiajia quietly embroider? Can you think of me all the time? β
Zhou Bo was laughing.
Master Yan was also laughing.
Yan Zhenzhen was even more puzzled, she was about to die, why were these two old people so happy? "Grandfather, I don't think that's a good thing."
"Learning to manage the back house is something every woman has to learn." Master Yan didn't explain much, only said, "Aren't you going to learn how to be smart?" The kitchen is the most suitable place for you to learn. β
"Managing a kitchen can lead to smarter?" Yan Zhenzhen looked at the old lady hesitantly, and then looked at Zhou Bo: "Grandfather, your old man won't be playing with me, right?" β
The old lady smiled and waved her hand: "Grandma Ge, who manages the kitchen, will teach you well." You carefully learn more from her, it is something that cannot be taught to you in the school, in the sect, or in the grandfather,"
Seeing that the old lady said so, Yan Zhenzhen had no choice but to put the contents of the tray into her sleeve suspiciously.
In the big room, Mrs. Yan held Yan Jiajia's hand, her eyes were full of tenderness: "Jiajia, you are still the most intimate, I know that for the sake of your sister, I am also worried about how to tell her to get used to life in the mansion quickly." β
Yan Jiajia listened to Mrs. Yan's praise, a smug look flashed in her eyes, but her face was humble and gentle: "Mother, what did you say?" I'm Zhenzhen's sister! β
"Good boy." Mrs. Yan clasped her hands together and wrapped Yan Jiajia's palms in it: "Zhen Zhen has your sister, and it is also her blessing." β
"Mother-" Yan Jiajia gently crooked in Mrs. Yan's arms, and where Mrs. Yan couldn't see, her face was full of calculation: "But Zhen Zhen doesn't seem to like me, I don't know what to do to make her like me." I voluntarily returned the marriage contract to my sister, and it was the son of the worldβ"
Yan Jiajia bit her lip, raised her face suddenly, with tears in her eyes, and looked at Mrs. Yan aggrievedly: "Mother, what do you say I should do." β
Mrs. Yan stroked Yan Jiajia's hand, and shouted in distress: "I have wronged you!" β
"Jiajia is not aggrieved, Jiajia has grown up under her mother's knees since she was a child, she is much luckier than her sister, Jiajia has robbed her sister of the things she has changed......" Yan Jiajia's tears slipped from the corners of his eyes: "Originally, my grandfather asked Jiajia to live in Zhuangzi, but Jiajia was too reluctant to kiss his mother, if he didn't want to be his mother, Jiajia wouldn't have gotten lost and met the five princes." β
"If you don't say it, I forgot, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince saved you, and we should be grateful to him." Mrs. Yan thought for a while, patted the back of Yan Jiajia's hand and said, "When Zhang Guifei holds a hundred flowers banquet, my mother will prepare a gift for you and thank His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince in person." β
"Mother, Sister Zhen Zhen doesn't have any decent clothes, Mother remember to help her sister prepare them." Yan Jiajia's eyes flashed, but she said, "When the time comes, I will help Sister Zhen Zhen dress up well." β
