Chapter 35: Her Thoughts

Xiaocui came to Chen Xiaoyun's new residence, the old lady's wing, early and waited outside the door. Hearing the movement of someone getting up inside, he knocked on the door and entered.

Li Yi saw Xiaocui carrying something, thinking that something had left behind in the move yesterday. Who knew that Xiaocui opened the baggage, and inside was a plain dress.

Li Yi is combing her hair in front of the dresser, to be precise, she is "becoming" her hair. Xiao Cui held the dress in front of her and unfolded it. It's like a smock.

"What is this?" Not only Li Yi couldn't understand it, but Xiaohong couldn't understand it either, so she asked out loud.

"This is the smock worn for the young lady to cook, and a white turban." Xiaocui said: "I didn't like the smell of smoke on my body when I saw Miss cooking yesterday. I thought of making this dress for you. It doesn't completely block out the smell of smoke, but it's better than not wearing it at all. ”

Li Yi appreciated Xiaocui's carefulness very much, and hurriedly asked to try it on. The gown made by Xiao Cui is a modern simplified version, and its straps are knotted at the front.

Li Yi likes this smock very much, although there are still things to improve, but with it, she doesn't have to worry about the smell of oil smoke on her body.

Li Yi is very happy to appreciate Xiaocui, but what is the reward? She didn't know anything about how much Chen Xiaoyun had. I had to reward the money.

She remembered a small box on Chen Xiaoyun's dresser, which seemed to have silver in it. When I opened it from memory, I saw that there were indeed several silver nudes cast in the shape of plum blossoms.

She couldn't tell how much these were and took a reward for Xiaocui.

Xiaocui happily accepted Chen Xiaoyun's reward of a penny. The young lady is willing to reward her, does it mean that she has forgiven her?

That's a penny! Their month's salary, Xiaohong is a little envious. This was followed by a deep inferiority complex: why didn't I notice that Miss didn't like the smell of smoke? I really don't have anything to do with her, and I'm always one step behind her.

Li Yi's mind was completely on the breakfast to be made today, and she didn't notice the careful thinking of the two maidservants.

She told Xiaocui to go to the big kitchen to see what porridge was prepared, and if it was white porridge, she would send some to the old lady. I took Xiaohong to the small kitchen.

The utensils commonly used here for cooking are thicker than modern and heat slowly, making them unsuitable for stir-frying. Li Yi thought of a dish that was suitable for slow heating.

Arrange for Xiaohong to pick some greens and shallots, finely chop them, and add them to the beaten egg mixture.

Xiaocui came back and said that the big kitchen was preparing milk porridge, and she felt that the milk porridge was also light, so she asked the big kitchen to send some over, I don't know if it was okay.

Is milk porridge now popular? Li Yi is quite satisfied. Well, let's eat milk porridge this morning.

Xiaolan continued to do the work of burning the fire, and Chef Liu stood aside and had nothing to do, wanting to help but not knowing where to start. When Li Yi was about to pour the egg liquid into the pot, seeing her embarrassed expression, she brought the bowl to her hand.

Ask her to pour a third into the pot. Seeing that Chen Xiaoyun trusted her, Chef Liu carefully poured the egg liquid in the bowl into the pot.

Li Yi stood aside with a shovel, waited for the bottom surface of the egg wash to solidify, scooped up one side, and slowly rolled it up. An egg roll is formed.

This omelet has a very special name - egg roast. That's right, what she was going to do today was Japanese food.

Although there is a lack of a square pot for making egg roast, because the pot is relatively large, it can still be made with irregular egg roast.

This method is also simple, she made one and let the cook get started. soon

Cut the three egg rolls into sections, put them on a plate, and serve them with milk porridge, and it was today's breakfast.

After removing the smock and turban, he took the maid and breakfast and came to the old lady.

Today's breakfast was simple and short, and when she arrived, the old lady had not yet gotten up. saw that Chen's mother was already standing outside the old lady's door.

Li Yi walked to Chen's mother with some distress, and didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to ask the second brother if he gave her the meatball soup last night. Mother Chen smiled and nodded. Li Yi also wanted to tell her that today's breakfast was a new food, but Chen's mother spoke first:

"Yun'er, morning and dusk are what you should do as a junior. You're doing a good job now, and when you get married, you'll have to be as serious as you are now. After saying this, she carefully observed her daughter's expression.

Li Yi has absolute trust in Chen's mother, and rarely hides her emotions in front of her. After listening to Chen's mother's words at this moment, she was a little desperate, can she marry a man whose mother died early?

Mother Chen seemed to read her thoughts from her expression: "Actually, it's still ......"

The old lady's maid walked out of the room and invited the two of them in.

After Chen's mother asked her to say goodbye, the old lady did not leave her for breakfast. Therefore, breakfast was eaten quietly by Li Yi and the old lady.

She had wanted to probe the old lady at breakfast and ask about the outing. But the old lady looked preoccupied, and he couldn't open his mouth.

After breakfast, the old lady didn't let her go, but just pulled her to chat. Li Yi knew that the old lady had something to say to herself, so she asked Xiaoqing to go back to the room to get something for herself. The old lady also sent away her maid, and when she was the only one left in the house, the old lady asked her about her view of mate selection.

"Yun'er, before you got sick, I told you one thing, do you remember?" The old lady asked kindly.

Li Yi asked tentatively: "Remember, is it my marriage?" ”

"Well, have you ever thought about what kind of person you want to marry in the future?"

"Yun'er has never ......" Li Yi hurriedly explained, for fear that she would be misunderstood by the old lady if she was slow.

"Don't worry, there's no one left or right now, say what you really think." The old lady comforted her first, and then sighed: "Marriage will determine your life for the rest of your life." I still need to hear what you think before making this decision for you. ”

Li Yi really didn't think about what kind of husband she was looking for. In modern times, she hopes to find someone to love, but love is something that disappears.

Two people have been together for more than two years, and the feeling of heartbeat when they see each other is gone. Two people no longer accommodate each other, and their shortcomings are infinitely magnified. What did you rely on to maintain the relationship between the two people at that time?

She can't find an answer, because when love disappears, she is the one who chooses to leave every time.

Sometimes she also thinks, endure it, maybe the two of them can get married, but is this kind of emotionless marriage what she wants?

If you really want to marry someone who has no emotional foundation, then what can two people rely on to continue this marriage?

Yun'er hopes that he will be responsible and responsible. In this way, if something happens at home, he can solve the problem; I also hope to respect each other with him, and I can discuss with Yun'er if I have something, and don't insist on going my own way, so that the two can support each other and go further. Li Yi also replied to the old lady seriously.

"She's a smart girl!" The old lady was very satisfied with her granddaughter's answer, and she thought that her granddaughter would say something about her family background and appearance. I didn't expect her idea to be so mature.

The granddaughter is a clear carryer, and she is very pleased. But the daughter-in-law is also very persistent. After many years of getting along, she knows her daughter-in-law's personality, she looks supple, but she is stubborn in her bones. What she decided was hard to change.

Well, this wicked man should do it himself.

"Your handmaid is already outside, go back and rest." The old lady patted her on the shoulder and urged her to go back.

When Li Yi came out of the courtyard, the old lady called her subordinates: "Go to the front yard and watch, and when the old man comes back, invite him and his wife to come to me." ”
