Hua Manxi and Uncle Li raised their eyes at the same time and looked at the people who walked over.

The person who came was dressed in a cyan robe, handsome and elegant, with a handsome face, it was Hua Manxi's fiancé who had retired from his family, Ding Xiucai.

"Ding Xiucai?" Uncle Li couldn't imagine that Ding Xiucai, who only read sage books and didn't hear anything outside the window, actually came, and was very shocked.

"Hello Uncle Li." Ding Xiucai greeted in a gentle voice, and his eyes lightly glanced at Hua Manxi, whose face was coated with black ointment, and concealed the disgust in his eyes without a trace.

"Fang Cai Xiaosheng also watched this game in the back, although he had no intention of disturbing, he also felt that there was something to say." Ding Xiucai slowly spoke, "What Uncle Li and Li Zheng said just now, but if you win, you can become Uncle Li's apprentice?" ”

"That's what happened." Uncle Li nodded, he couldn't figure out what he wanted to say, but Hua Manxi secretly screamed in his heart.

This ungrateful stinky scholar, he will definitely not help her! He's just going to mess up her money! forced her to marry Ding Erwa, that fool!

"Xiao Sheng thinks that the girl of the Hua family does not win this competition, although she is slightly better at cooking, but Xiao Sheng thinks that the most important thing in the competition is to abide by the rules, at the beginning of the competition just now, Uncle Li provided the ingredients, there is no chili, this chili pepper is brought by the girl of the Hua family privately, she won the game with this fresh ingredients, which is an injustice to the girl of the Li family."

As soon as these words came out, the originally quiet crowd suddenly exploded.

Hua Manxi gritted his teeth even more and tightened the sleeves of his clothes!

What a grudge she has with this Ding family! Trouble with her openly and secretly! When she tried the dishes just now, the old woman of the Nading family clearly even grabbed a few chopsticks and the dishes she cooked, and her mouth was full of oil, but she turned her head and stood directly on Li Qiuqiu's side, and secretly dragged Lizheng.

Now there is another Ding Xiucai, relying on himself to read some books and start talking about these things!

Hua Manxi was extremely angry, but the Ding family now has a lot of status and fame in Peach Blossom Village, and she is weak, so it is not easy to directly fight him, so she has to set her sights on Uncle Li.

"Ding Jiaxiu is serious, to be a cook, the important thing is the skill and talent of cooking, this pepper is also grown in my garden, it is not a big deal." After such a fuss, Uncle Li became more and more happy with Hua Manxi's apprentice, her ability did not show a little, and it is not certain who will teach whom in the future.

"Daddy! How can you help her speak! Say yes and be just! Li Qiuqiu was overjoyed when she saw that her sweetheart was actually helping her, she looked at Ding Shuqing shyly and timidly, and even stomped her feet to protest against her father a little more delicate.

"Uncle Li, this is not a problem of a few chili peppers, but a problem of character." Ding Xiu's handsome face was a little more serious, and his voice was calm.

"Your Majesty governs the country today, and the most important thing is faithfulness, that is, the entire Nanyang country, all of them are pursued, the girl of the Hua family added chili peppers to the dish without authorization this time, what if it is next time, what if you add something else? With such a character, how could Uncle Li carelessly accept her as an apprentice? Uncle Li is a respected person in the village, and most of the things in charge of the spoon fall into the hands of Uncle Li, if she is Uncle Li's assistant cook, she will inevitably have two hearts, it will inevitably not affect Uncle Li, so Xiaosheng still advises Uncle Li to think twice. ”

"Ding Xiucai, is this serious?" Seeing his eloquent words, Uncle Li felt that it was too much, but it was not good to refute his face directly in front of so many people, so he had to soften his voice.

"Daddy! Brother Ding is right! This time she secretly added chili peppers, and next time, she added laxative poison! Such people can't be used! Li Qiuqiu saw that Ding Xiucai had moved her father, so she quickly interjected and echoed.

Because of these words, Ding Xiucai's gaze fell on Li Qiuqiu's face, she noticed her sweetheart's gaze, her face suddenly turned red and hot, and her eyes drooped slightly.

"That's right, Lao Li, I think Ding Xiucai has a point, although the cooking skills of this niece of the Hua family are good, but the ingredients that were said before the competition just now are not chili, which she added without authorization, which is unfair to Qiuqiu. There are no rules, and these rules must be followed. Li Zheng was secretly tugged by the eldest lady of the Ding family again, coughed twice pretendedly, and also agreed.

"Ding Xiu is a scholar, what people say must be reasonable." The villagers next to him also interjected.

"Yes, a little girl, do you cook anything? Is it so easy to be a chef? The girl of the Li family has been learning from Uncle Li since she was a child - her mother has not come back for ten years, who knows if what she learned will work? ”

"That's it, that's it, forget it, Uncle Li, isn't it good for you to pass on your cooking skills to Miss Li? When the time comes, find an honest son-in-law and inherit your mantle-"

Ding Xiucai and Li Zheng are both authoritative figures in Peach Blossom Village, and the villagers naturally follow their opinions, gossiping, and are stunned to block Uncle Li speechless.

Hua Manxi saw that this errand was going to be yellow, and he didn't want to make it bigger, so he saluted Uncle Li and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Li, since everyone thinks that Manxi is unbearable to be your apprentice, Manxi can't bear to make it difficult for Uncle Li to do, and Manxi won't do this helper." ”

"Hey, Manxi-" Uncle Li has been cooking all his life, and he naturally has some knowledge of Hua Manxi's ability in his heart, she can use several cooking techniques to make six dishes and one soup casually, she is a good seedling, it's a pity.

"Manxi took his leave first." Hua Manxi bowed slightly, retreated, and when she left, she naturally received a smug warning from Li Qiuqiu, she ignored it, but glanced at Ding Xiucai twice.

She wrote down this account with Hua Manxi.

After Hua Manxi said goodbye to Uncle Li, she turned around and left the big courtyard of the Li family, she walked calmly, and she didn't take this matter to heart, but to say that she was not sad at all, it was fake.

She now owes the Ding family five taels of silver, and the Hua family is really poor and white, she neither wants to marry the fool of Ding Erwa, nor can she bear to involve the Hua family, she thought that she could earn money by being a cook, but she didn't want the bastard of the Ding family to actually mess with her errand!

I have no ability, but I can't find a way to make money, is it true that I want to sell my body for five taels of silver?

Hua Manxi was irritable, and walked towards the courtyard of the Hua family with a small expression.

"Hua girl, please stay." When he was about to get home, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him.

It's that damn Ding Xiucai! The look on Hua Manxi's face stiffened, resisted his urge to sprinkle mustard powder on his face, squeezed out a stiff expression, turned around and asked lightly, "Ding Xiucai, is there something wrong?" ”

Ding Xiucai paused and felt that the person in front of him seemed to have changed a lot.

In the past, she always liked to cling to her name Brother Ding, but she was timid and afraid of things, and she cowered-

He retracted his doubts, his eyes fell on her ointment-covered face, and a trace of disgust could not help but rise to the bottom of his eyes, but he evoked a false smile and took out a purse from his bosom.

"Don't get me wrong, since our family affair has been withdrawn, the purse you gave me that day will also be returned to you." Ding Xiucai put the purse in Hua Manxi's palm, looking cold.

Hua Manxi's gaze rested on the cyan shirt on his body.

"Sister Hua, we are also sad that something like this happened to you, but we have no fate, and I hope we will be okay in the future." Ding Xiucai saw that she was still staring at her clothes stupidly, a little disgusted, and said in a slightly cold voice.

"Ding Xiucai, since you have returned my purse to me, then-" Hua Manxi suddenly raised his head, stared at him directly, and said after considering the words, "Then this shirt on your body is a cloth I gave me, and this cloth is a hundred yuan, can you also return it to me?" ”

According to the memory of the original body, this hundred yuan is the private money that the original body has saved for two years, since this man is so proud and hateful, of course it can't be wasted on him!

Ding Xiucai's expression on his face suddenly collapsed when he heard this, he looked at Hua Manxi in disbelief, and after groaning for a while, he pretended to be sad and said slowly: "I didn't think that you are such a person." I thought I'd leave it in mind. ”

Hua Manxi didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and asked again: "Can you give it back to me?" It's okay to also have ninety texts. ”

Isn't he pretending? Isn't it to sprinkle salt on the wounds of the original body by severing them in two? Hehe, I'm sorry, the soul in this shell is a flower chef from the 21st century, and she has long been tired of watching this kind of scumbag and resentment of women in TV series and novels.

Ding Xiucai was forced to ask by Hua Manxi like this, his face couldn't hold it, and it was almost as black as the bottom of the pot.

He angrily opened his money bag, ordered a hundred yuan to Hua Manxi, and his voice was so cold that he could freeze people to death: "I, Ding Shuqing, am not a person who likes to take advantage of others, one hundred yuan, a copper plate is a lot, Sister Hua count." ”

Seeing the money, Hua Manxi's frustration just now finally eased a little, and he smiled at him: "Don't count, Ding Xiucai will be a big official in the future, and he won't even miscount this money." ”

Hua Manxi put a hundred yuan into the purse that Ding Xiucai had returned just now, put it in his arms, and said without hesitation: "Since the account is settled, then I will go back first." ”

Ding Shuqing snorted coldly, didn't look at her again, and walked towards Ding's house.

Hua Manxi returned to the small courtyard of the Hua family, Uncle Hua and Hua Xiaosong went to the field and did not come back, only the eldest aunt was chopping pig vegetables, seeing that she was back, she quickly threw down the work in her hand and asked happily: "Manxi, are you back?" How? Are you tired of studying art? ”

Looking at such a concerned and doting gaze, Hua Manxi felt sour in his heart, and said very uncomfortably: "Something happened, Uncle Li can't accept me as a cook." ”

The eldest aunt didn't expect this to happen at all, and an undisguised disappointment and helplessness suddenly appeared on her face: "How can this be?" Didn't you say yes last night? Uncle Li also praised you for your delicious cooking. ”

"It's the people of the Ding family and Uncle Li's daughter who disagree." Hua Manxi didn't want to mention this stubble again, and was about to comfort the eldest aunt, but the eldest aunt spoke first, "If you don't do it, you won't do it, it's not a good job for a girl to be in charge, it's smoky, and she is aging fast, today I have asked someone to send a letter to your cousin Da Yang, see if he can borrow some silver." ”

As he was talking, there was a sudden snapping sound in Hua Manxi's room.
