Chapter 16: Yan's Routine (2)

If she knew that it was so easy, she should have used both hard and soft things like she did today, squeezing some tears out and forcing Zhao Kuo to comply.

But it's not right, earlier she couldn't meet a daughter-in-law who was as obedient to her heart as Jinyu's girl.

After getting rid of his own son, Yan took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears on his face, and he was the Yan who loved to laugh again.

Patting Zhao Kuo's hand, Yan stood up with a smile.

"Kuo'er, you continue to read your military book, my mother will go and sum up with the housekeeper, what are the marriageable girls in the city. When you have chosen, my mother will arrange for you to meet. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Zhao Kuo to answer, Yan twisted his waist and left happily.

Zhao Kuo looked at the back of his mother-in-law, and felt like he had been deceived.

But when he thought that what Yan said today was true, and the tears she shed just now were true, he had nothing to regret.

Leaving Zhao Kuo's yard, the first thing Yan did was to go straight to the kitchen.

The closer you are to the kitchen, the more fragrant the chicken soup becomes, which makes Yan swallow and spit.

When he saw Qiao Jinyu's busy figure in the kitchen, Yan hooked the corners of his mouth, feeling that the tears he had just now were indeed not in vain.

Walking into the kitchen, Yan sniffed exaggeratedly.

"Girl, who did you learn this craft from? is the imperial chef in the palace, but I'm afraid that the craftsmanship may not be able to match you. ”

For Yan's praise, Qiao Jinyu didn't feel that she couldn't bear it.

The dishes she can cook may not be as many as those imperial chefs in the palace today.

But when it comes to the color and aroma of the dishes, she can proudly say that her skills will not be worse than the imperial chefs in the palace.

However, in front of Yan's family, she still has to be modest, and only those who know how to be modest are likable, isn't it?

"Madame praised it falsely, how can my cooking skills be compared with those imperial chefs in the palace? The dishes I cook can also be seen by you, Madame, and those nobles in the palace are afraid that they don't want to take a look. ”

"Why not? I once went to the palace to participate in the palace banquet, and some of the dishes made by those imperial chefs were really not as delicious as those made by you. ”

Qiao Jinyu curled her lips and chuckled: "Madame said that I laughed, but I am still very happy to receive a compliment from Madame." ”

Yan frowned, pretending to be angry.

"Why don't you believe what I say, you child? What am I lying to you for? ”

"Madame is kind-hearted, maybe she wants to make me smile."

"What am I doing to make you laugh? You will not reward me with a few denarii of silver. ”

Qiao Jinyu smiled, stopped talking, scooped up the eggplant washed in the water and put it on the cutting board, and carefully cut it into small pieces with a kitchen knife.

She was skillful with her knife skills and neat hands, and in a short time she cut two plates, soaked them in water and set them aside.

Yan approached the table and looked at the eggplant cubes that looked like swimming fish, and was amazed.

"Eggplant can still be cut like this? I've lived most of my life, and it's the first time I've ever seen someone cut an eggplant into the shape of a fish. Girl, your hands are too skillful. ”

Qiao Jinyu didn't care, "What am I?" Madame, have you never seen someone carve a flower out of a turnip, that's amazing. ”

"You are also very powerful, at least much more powerful than me, if anyone can marry you as a daughter-in-law, it is definitely a virtue accumulated in the previous life."

His eyes rolled, and Yan suddenly asked, "Girl, you haven't answered me about what I asked you yesterday, can you help you set up a family affair at home?" ”

Qiao Jinyu's busy hands didn't stop, "What, Madame, is this trying to be a matchmaker for me?" ”
