Chapter 331: Chen Menghui fostered his daughter to her
At Tang Sheng's insistence, she asked Tang Sheng to send her two children to the academy.
Not long after they left, she also went out with her basket. Peach felt that her life was dominated by her wife, and she was a little embarrassed, so she went to the vegetable market with her.
"Madame, what are you going to cook today?" She saw that her wife had walked around the vegetable market and didn't see a single dish, so she couldn't help but ask.
"Do you eat beef?" She asked Peach.
Peach was stunned, thinking that Madame was so abnormal, but thinking that Madame loved beef, she nodded.
Seeing Taohong nodding, she said to the beef stall owner in front of her, "Come on three catties of beef." β
"Okay." The stall owner picked up a knife and cut the meat.
"How much a pound?"
"A hundred dollars a pound." The stall owner replied.
She was able to accept the price, so she didn't say anything.
"This is the three catties of beef you want, take it." The stall owner wrapped the meat in plantain leaves and handed it to her.
RosΓ© took it and put it in the basket, and she paid for it.
After buying beef, you have to buy chili peppers, green onions, and stir-fried beef.
However, when she saw that she was selling mutton on the side, she wanted to buy mutton again, and thought that she hadn't eaten mutton for a long time, so she walked over.
also bought three catties of mutton, and then she bought two more catfish.
RosΓ© saw that Madame had bought these and was going to buy a hare, and immediately stopped it.
"Madam, there is enough to eat this day, and if you buy too much, it won't be fresh tomorrow."
"It's okay, there are a few big stomachs in the family, and there will definitely be no left." She said to Peach with a smile.
After listening to Madame's words, she stopped talking, and felt that Madame was very reasonable, and the master was also a person who could eat, and it could be seen from here that the two young masters were following the master.
After shopping for groceries, I went home.
After returning home, I saw a guest at home, and this person was Chen Menghui's father and daughter.
Chen Menghui waited for a while, and when he saw that she was back, he immediately got up to greet her, and then saw the vegetables in the basket in Taohong's hand, and asked in surprise.
"What are you doing at home today? Buy so many good dishes. β
"It's okay, it's just that the children don't eat well at the academy, so add food to the children." After she finished speaking, she looked at Chen Yuyan and rubbed Chen Yuyan's head, "Come to me here, do you have something here?" β
"I'm going to go on a long trip, I'll come back in about four or five days, I want to leave Yu Yan here for you, please take care of it, I'll feel back as soon as possible."
After listening to Chen Menghui's words, she nodded: "Okay, you can rest assured to go and take care of your affairs, I will take care of her as a daughter here." β
Seeing that she agreed, Chen Menghui hurriedly thanked her.
"Thank you, always bothering you."
"Say thank you, the more you earn, the more I don't share, it's too late for me to be happy." She laughs.
Chen Menghui laughed, chatted a few words and left.
After Chen Menghui left, she led Chen Yuyan to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Peach had already started washing vegetables, and when she saw her lady coming in, she said, "Madame, should you cook again?" β
Looking at Peach's reaction, she frowned and said, "What? My stir-fried food doesn't taste good? β
"The slave maid doesn't mean that, the lady's craftsmanship is much better than the slave maid, but the lady cooks every day, and the slave and maid's work is gone."
It turned out that because of this, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Isn't that bad?" She asked Peach.
Peach shook her head, with a look of grievance: "How can a lady work, a slave and a maid play?" β
"Okay, I'll do it occasionally, and I won't steal your job." She smiled and comforted Peach.
When Peach heard this, she continued: "Since yesterday, it has been Madame's cooking, and this is occasional, the slave maid thinks that Madame has the idea of cooking every day in the future." β
This was all guessed by RosΓ©, and she really had this idea.
When Tao Hong saw Madame smiling, she knew that she was right: "Madam, are you planning to abandon the slave maid?" β
"Yes, when will you find someone to marry like Qingzhu?"
As soon as she heard this, Taohong shook her head: "Slaves and maids don't want to marry, slaves and maids have to follow their ladies for a lifetime." β
She directly gave Taohong a roll of the eyes and said, "I don't want to support you for the rest of my life, so let's find a man to marry!" β
"Madam, there are still children, how can we discuss this topic." Taohong didn't want to talk to her wife about this topic, so she directly pulled Chen Yuyan in as a shield.
After listening to Taohong's words, he remembered that there was still a child here, so he immediately stopped and didn't discuss this, so as not to bring the child badly, and Chen Menghui would not find himself to fight hard at that time.
"Then let's not talk about it, you make the fish out, and we'll eat the fish at noon."
After listening to this, Peach asked, "Do you just get fish?" β
"Well, cook more rice, I'll get the fish."
"Okay." RosΓ© answered and went to take the fish out and dispose of it.
It's still early, and she takes Chen Yuyan to the front yard to play.
"Auntie, will Sheng'er Mo'er come back at noon?"
"If they don't come back, they won't come back until the afternoon, what? Do you want to play with them? β
Chen Yuyan nodded, and then asked, "Why can't girls go to the academy to read and write?" β
She wanted her father to get her to go to Hallym Academy before, but her father said that girls couldn't go, and the dean wouldn't accept it.
Hearing Chen Yuyan's words, she asked Chen Yuyan: "Do you want to go to the academy to study and read?" β
Chen Yuyan nodded: "But my father said that the dean would not accept girls." β
"Then we can become boys!" She suddenly felt that Chen Menghui would beat herself to death when he came back.
Chen Yuyan was stunned, looked at her aunt dumbfounded, and after a while, she asked.
"How did you become a boy?"
"It's okay to dress you up as a boy." She laughs.
After hearing this, Chen Yuyan's eyes widened.
"Will this work?"
"I don't know, maybe it works." She thinks that girls can go to the academy, but this is not her world after all.
Originally, Chen Yuyan was full of hope, but when she heard this, she felt hopeless. The master is so smart, she must have recognized herself as a girl at a glance, so she felt that there was no fun.
Seeing Chen Yuyan like this, she rubbed her head and asked, "Why do you want to go to the academy?" β
"I want to play with everyone, it's boring to be alone every day." Chen Yuyan said very lonely.
"Then let me tell you, the academy is not fun, you have to do your homework every day when you go home, and you will be beaten if you don't write well."
As soon as she heard that she was going to be beaten, Chen Yuyan flinched.
"Then I'm not going."
Looking at Chen Yuyan, who was giving up, she smiled, and then led her to the house, talking as she walked.
"Is it okay for your aunt to teach you to draw?"
"Draw dolls?" Chen Yuyan looked at her with her head held high.
She nodded: "Well, my aunt taught you to draw dolls." β
"That's good!" Chen Yuyan immediately jumped up happily.
Coming to the table, she gave Chen the need for a quill. Chen Yuyan took the feather, looked at it, and then asked.
"Auntie, what is this for?"
"You'll find out later." She didn't want to explain, so she just started grinding the ink, and when the ink was finished, she picked up another feather, dipped it in a little ink, and drew on the paper.
Seeing this, Chen Yuyan learned from this and drew on paper.
"Auntie, this one is better than a brush."
"yes, I think this one is better than a brush." She drew a bear's head as she spoke.
Chen Yuyan looked at what her aunt drew and recognized it at a glance.
"Auntie, you're painting a bear."
"Yes, it's a bear." She had only drawn a head shape, and she recognized her eyes and nose without drawing them, and she seemed to have a good memory.
"Then I'm going to draw Mickey Mouse." After Chen Yuyan finished speaking, she began to paint.
"Do you know how to draw, then?" She asked.
Chen Yuyan nodded: "I'll go back to painting." β
Chen Yuyan was afraid that she would not believe it, so she painted it.
She watched from the sidelines, and soon her face showed a look of surprise.
"Have you painted before?"
Chen Yuyan nodded again, and then told her.
"In the past, when I was bored, I would go to my father's study to draw and play."
"After your mother gives birth, you won't be bored." She said to Chen Yuyan.
When Chen Yuyan heard this, the expression on her face was a little strange, and then she said a word.
"My mother likes boys."
Hearing this, Zhou Yiran frowned, but she didn't think it was strange when she remembered Xie Yu'er in Yucheng when she learned that she was pregnant.
Near noon, she asked Chen Yuyan to paint here alone, and then she went to the kitchen.
When Tang Sheng came back, he saw a child in her room and walked over.
Just when Chen Yuyan raised her head and saw him, she screamed in fright.
Tsing Yi, who was doing embroidery work on the side of the house, heard the sound and immediately put down the things in his hand and went over.
"Miss Chen, what's wrong?" After Tsing Yi finished speaking, he saw the back in front of the window, and immediately understood, and hurriedly coaxed Miss Chen, "Miss Chen, that's the master, the father of the two young masters." β
As soon as she heard this, Chen Yuyan was not so scared, raised her head to look out of the window, and found that there was no more, so she turned her head and asked Tsing Yi.
"Sheng'er Mo'er's father is back?"
"Well, the old man is like that when he is a little injured on his face, in fact, the old man is very good, don't be afraid."
Chen Yuyan nodded, feeling a lot calmer.
Tang Sheng went to the next room when Chen Yuyan was screaming, and he didn't come out after entering.
When it was time for lunch, Zhou Yiran came over to call someone, and when she heard Tsing Yi say that Tang Sheng was back, she asked Tsing Yi to take Chen Yuyan to the main hall, and she went next door.
In the room, Tang Sheng heard the voice and raised his head to look over.
"It's time to eat."
"You eat first, and I'll go over to eat when you're done, it's not good to scare the child."
Chen Yuyan, who was outside the door, heard this and walked in with courage.
Although it looked a little scary, she thought that he was Sheng'er Mo'er's father, so she was not so scared in her heart.
"Uncle, I'm not afraid."
Tang Sheng heard her call herself "uncle", so he frowned and looked at the woman in front of him.
"This is your brother's daughter?"
"No, it's Chen Menghui's daughter Chen Yuyan."
When Tang Sheng heard that it was Chen Menghui's daughter, his face was not very good-looking, the child was the most sensitive, and he felt that he hated his father, and he didn't say anything about it.
Tang Sheng looked at Chen Yuyan and said, "Which woman who doesn't have long eyes marries him?" β
"Xie Yu'er." Chen Yuyan replied.
"Poof..." Zhou Yiran laughed, thinking that Chen Yuyan was so cute.
