Chapter 466: Cinderella's Black Fairy Tale
Lunch was prepared by Mrs. Holly, and in addition to toast, there was fried dried fish, lamb boiled with peas, and sliced bacon.
Ruan Mianmian picked up the toast and looked at it, the surface layer had been blackened, and it was obviously burnt.
She teared off the burnt surface with a blank face, took a bite of the bread inside, frowned and asked, "Madam, how much salt did you put in the flour?" ”
Mrs. Holly was surprised: "Salt? I remember only putting sugar! ”
Ruan Mianmian put down the bread, took a sip of water, pressed down the salty water in her mouth, and swept her eyes over the plate of burnt dried fish, which had been fried for too long and had turned black, and black crumbs could fall off when you touched it, like a pile of black charcoal.
She looked at the big bowl of gooey strange things next to her, "What is this?" ”
Mrs. Holly hurriedly said, "It's peas boiled lamb." ”
Ruan Mianmian scooped it with a soup spoon and found that all the ingredients had been boiled and turned into a paste, yellow, yellow, green, and green in color, which was easily reminiscent of bad things.
She asked, "How long have you been cooking?" ”
"It didn't take long, it was just over two hours, but the fire was a little bigger, so it was too bad, but it didn't matter, it was easier to taste when it was cooked."
Ruan Mianmian put down the spoon and looked at the last bacon.
Because bacon is cooked and doesn't need to be processed too much, just pass it through hot water and then cut it into thin slices and put it on a plate, so it becomes the only food on the table that seems to be able to eat it.
Ruan Mianmian brought the bacon to herself and Cinderella, and then said to Lady Holly and Mary.
"Take these things to the kitchen and eat them, remember, eat them all, don't waste anything, I'll check it later."
To tell the truth, Mrs. Holly didn't want to eat the food that seemed to be unappetizing, but she made it with her own hands, and she couldn't say anything bad, so she could only take the toast and fried fish with a pale face, and Mary took the big bowl of sticky peas and boiled lamb, and the two went to the kitchen to eat.
The bacon was a little salty, and it was a little uncomfortable to eat dry, Ruan Mianmian kept drinking water and muttered: "I hope tomorrow is a good day, we have to go to the city to buy more bread." ”
Cinderella stood up: "I'll go cook you some porridge." ”
"Don't bother, just make do with it."
However, Cinderella was reluctant, saying, "There is not much I can do but eat and try to satisfy you." ”
He went to the kitchen, ignored the gaze of Mrs. Holly and her daughter, and with a swift movement lit the stove, rice and oats with water, and put them in the pot and boiled slowly.
Soon, the pot wafted out the unique aroma of oats.
Lady Holly and Mary were so close that they were so entangled that the toast in their hands was like charcoal in comparison, and it was hard to swallow.
Mary couldn't help but ask, "Can you give us a bowl of oatmeal too?" ”
Cinderella glanced at them, "I'm sorry, I only cooked two servings." ”
The implication is that there is no one else's share.
Mary was a little angry and wanted to scold Cinderella as before, but then she thought that the girl in the black dress was in the dining room, and as soon as there was any movement in the kitchen, the girl in the black dress would come immediately.
Mary was afraid of the girl in the black dress who could use witchcraft.
She could only pinch the burnt bread and watch as Cinderella walked out with two bowls of fragrant and hot oatmeal.
When the two sides pass by.
Mary finally couldn't hold back the resentment in her heart, lowered her voice, and said in a resentful tone: "Don't be complacent, Dad will be back soon, and he won't forgive you for what you did!" ”
Cinderella paused.
He looked at Mary's face, which was a little distorted by resentment, and said lightly, "Hurry up and eat, you have to chop wood later." ”
Mary choked.
By the time she finally found the words to refute, Cinderella had already walked out of the kitchen.
Mary cursed harshly.
Inside the restaurant.
Ruan Mianmian drank the sweet oatmeal porridge with thinly sliced bacon, which felt delicious.
Cinderella said, "Let me cook in the future." ”
Ruan Mianmian was unhappy: "These are the jobs of Lady Holly and Mary, you don't have to worry about it, you just need to be your eldest sister." ”
"But their cooking skills won't satisfy you."
"Cooking skills are all honed, let them practice more, they will naturally be able to make delicious food," Ruan Mianmian paused, and felt that this was too bad for his tongue, so he added, "Tomorrow we will go to the city to buy more bread and bacon, and we can also buy some canned food, that thing can be stored for a long time, and it is not easy to spoil." ”
To be honest, she doesn't like canned food.
But compared to Mrs. Holly's poor cooking, the taste of the canned food was noticeably more acceptable.
Cinderella smiled, "Okay. ”
He didn't mention his father's return soon.
He didn't want to disturb the girl's good mood because of this.
Eat and drink to your heart's content.
Mrs. Holly cleans up the table, washes the plates, and cleans the house, while Mary is sent out to the backyard to chop wood.
When she was collecting firewood, in order to save trouble, she picked up very large tree trunks, so that the firewood could not be stuffed into the stove, and had to be split into pieces.
So it became her job.
Who made her claim that she couldn't do fine work? Then you can only do the work of being responsible.
After Mary had finished chopping the wood, Lady Holly boiled a large pot of hot water, for both Cinderella and Nguyen Mianmian had expressed a desire for a hot bath.
When the hot water was boiled, he was carried to the bathroom by Mrs. Holly.
Don't stop until the tub is filled with hot water.
Ruan Mianmian deliberately teased Cinderella and warmly invited the other party to take a bath together.
Cinderella blushed and refused.
Before she could speak again, he fled with the hem of his skirt.
Ruan Mianmian closed the door of the bathroom, took off her clothes, and took a comfortable hot bath.
She dressed, wrapped her long wet hair in a towel, walked out of the bathroom, and beckoned Mrs. Holly to clean the bathroom.
Madame Holly also wanted to take a bath, but she understood that now she was no longer the noble lady who had to maintain decency and delicacy at all times, and now she had become a servant of the witch, and she had to do whatever the witch wanted her to do, and she had no power to resist.
Mrs. Holly dragged her tired body and cleaned the bathroom.
There are a total of two washrooms in this house.
Nguyen Mianmian's bathroom is located next to the kitchen on the first floor, and there is a bathroom at the end of the corridor on the second floor.
She wiped her hair as she walked up the stairs.
When I went to the second floor, I found that the door to the bathroom had been opened, and it was empty, presumably Cinderella had finished bathing.
So Ruan Mianmian went to the bedroom to find someone again.
The door to the guest bedroom was unlocked, and it opened with a slight push!
