Chapter 170: Family Bracelets
Wang's calculation of Zhu Yuan's matter finally ended with her being punished for kneeling for one night. The punishment seemed to be very light, but in fact, it made her lose face in the entire Zhu family, and she temporarily rested her mind and hid in her yard without going out.
After Zhu Yuan and Mrs. Zhu talked about the restaurant, they resumed the habit of going to the restaurant to read the account books once a day.
Ning Bosheng happened to come to see her and ask her what happened at Zhu's house that day. Zhu Yuan said in a few words, "Fortunately, I noticed that something was wrong with her and avoided it in time." ”
"Wang's bitter and vicious, if you want to stay in the Zhu family, you still have to be careful of her in the future. This time she was humiliated, and she will definitely come back with revenge elsewhere. Ning Bosheng was very worried about Zhu Yuan's safety, although he was lucky to be okay this time, it was impossible to be so lucky every time.
"How many more guards shall I send with you?" Ning Bosheng consulted her about her meaning, because he knew that Zhu Yuan didn't like people to follow, so he didn't make decisions on his own.
Sure enough, Zhu Yuan shook his head without thinking about it, "Don't worry, just because the Wang family can't hurt me." ”
Ning Bosheng couldn't resist her, but told her again and again to be careful of the Wang family.
Mrs. Zhu couldn't resist the curiosity in her heart, and took Mama Ji to the restaurant together. Zhu Chengcheng's face was happy, and he helped her to the private room upstairs, "What does grandma want to eat today?" ”
"When I was downstairs, I heard a lot of people raving about the restaurant's food. Say you came up with all this? Then teach it to the cook. Mrs. Zhu asked her with a smile in her eyes.
Zhu Yuan didn't deny it, and nodded honestly.
"The restaurant can be opened, in fact, it depends on the girl's cooking skills. Otherwise, how could there be so many guests now. The shopkeeper also praised Zhu Yuan from the bottom of his heart in front of Mrs. Zhu.
"Okay, we wish the family's cooking skills to be passed on." I wish the old lady very pleased, and kept praising Zhu Yuan, and she liked it as much as she wanted.
Zhu Yuan blushed from her praise, and hurriedly asked people to bring the dishes up, which let this matter pass.
Since she ate the dishes made by Zhu Yuan herself in the restaurant that day, Mrs. Zhu occasionally asked her to cook, and it was the same today.
Zhu Yuan made a table full of people, and found that everyone was here today, including the Wang family, who hid in the courtyard a few days ago and didn't go out, also sat there with Zhu Youlan.
I wish the old lady a happy meal, and after a meal, every sentence is praising Zhu Yuan's good craftsmanship.
Zhu Youlan and Wang, who were sitting next to them, poked the meat in the bowl deadly, and jealousy was written in their eyes.
After the meal, Mrs. Zhu suddenly instructed Mama Ji, "You go and bring my purple jade bracelet." ”
The purple jade bracelet is an heirloom of the Zhu family, and it has always been in the hands of the old lady, Wang thought that the bracelet would be given to her, but who knew that she took it out at this time, and couldn't help asking, "Why did the old lady suddenly remember this?" ”
The old lady glanced at her faintly, and did not mean to answer.
Mama Ji soon walked in with a delicate and simple box, and Mrs. Zhu directly took out the bracelet and handed it to Zhu Yuan, "Yuanyuan looks good." ”
She personally brought it to Zhu Yuan, ignoring the surprised and puzzled eyes of the people around her, "This purple jade bracelet will be given to you today." ”
Zhu Yuan saw the expectation in the old man's eyes, did not refuse, and touched the shining bracelet seriously, "Grandma, don't worry, I will take good care of it." ”
Wang's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly stopped, "Old lady, I can't help it, I can't give her the bracelet." ”
"If you don't give Yuanyuan, will you give it to you?" Mrs. Zhu asked her lightly.
Wang naturally didn't dare to nod, but moved out of her own reason, "The bracelet has always been the heirloom of the Zhu family. Yuanyuan will get married one day, how can I give it to her? ”
"Her surname is Zhu, even if she gets married, she still has the blood of the Zhu family!" Mrs. Zhu has no taboo of passing on men and not women, she likes Zhu Yuan, and it just so happens that her cooking skills are also very good, so she passed the bracelet to her, which is such a simple truth.
The jealousy in Wang's heart was almost unbearable, and he cried with the old lady Zhu in tears, "She has only come to Zhu's house for a few days, how can the old lady give her the bracelet?" ”
"Youlan and I have served you for many years, even if this is the case, it should be given to Youlan." Wang was dissatisfied with the old lady's favoritism, "Our mother and daughter have not been courted by you, and after so many years of companionship, it is not as good as a little girl who has just been here for a few days." ”
Old Madam Zhu looked at her coldly, "Do you want me to give the bracelet to Youlan?" ”
She pulled Zhu Yuan over and told the Wang family very calmly, "Yuan Yuan has superb cooking skills, and has been favored by His Royal Highness King Rui, and is the future princess, and she can help the Zhu family in the future." ”
When Mrs. Zhu said this, she glanced at Zhu Youlan and the Wang family's mother and daughter, "What else can you do besides calculating the Zhu family's property all day long?" ”
Wang's covetous thoughts for many years were picked out, but he didn't panic, and said as a matter of course, "I am the daughter-in-law of the Zhu family on the family tree, and I should plan for Youlan's future, which is not wrong." ”
"But the old lady shouldn't pass on such an important thing to Zhu Yuan without saying anything, it's not fair to us." The Wang family didn't want Zhu Youlan to be inferior to Zhu Yuan everywhere, so he was determined to let Mrs. Zhu take back the bracelet.
Zhu Youlan also stood up at the right time, looked at Zhu Yuan and said, "If it's just because of my cooking skills, I will also cook." ”
"If the third sister doesn't dislike it, I can compete with you. Whoever wins will have the ability to get the bracelet, grandma, so it's fair. "Zhu Youlan was raised by the Wang family, and when she talked to Mrs. Zhu, she didn't have the slightest respect.
Mrs. Zhu ignored her completely, but said to Zhu Yuan, "If Yuanyuan is happy, compare with her, if you don't want to, forget it." "She has already seen Zhu Yuan's cooking skills, no matter what, it is impossible for her to take back the bracelet.
Zhu Youlan looked at Zhu Yuan even more provocatively, "Does the third sister want to compete with me?" ”
"No, there's no need for that." Zhu Yuan had long seen that Zhu Youlan's cooking skills were not good, and it was a waste of time to compete with her.
Zhu Youlan's face was ugly, and she looked proud and excited, "The third sister is afraid of losing." So don't you dare to compare with me? ”
This time, there was no need for Zhu Yuan to speak, and Mrs. Zhu retorted to her, "Although they are all girls' families, they should also broaden their horizons, instead of trapping themselves in the inner house all day long, and know nothing about the outside world." ”
Seeing that the mother and daughter were puzzled, the old lady was too lazy to explain. Let Mama Ji say.
"The third lady's cooking skills are superb, as long as anyone who has been to Yuntianlou knows that if the second miss insists on competing, there will be only one result." Mama Ji is an old lady's person, and no one dares to scold her.
Zhu Youlan was very unwilling, and no matter what Zhu Yuan's cooking skills were, she constantly angered her.
