Chapter 103: Goodwill
Qiu Rongrong was completely amused by her immature and funny words.
Wen Yao played with the treasure for a while, and then asked Qiu Rongrong to let her take her to the kitchen, the things to be done are a little complicated, so it is better to start early.
Before leaving, Wen Yao asked Qiu Rongrong again: "Madam, can you please send someone to Jishitang to talk to my father and them, I'm afraid they will be worried if they wait for a long time." ”
Qiu Rongrong nodded: "I will." ”
Wen Yao was relieved to leave with someone, Qiu Rongrong kept watching her walk away, and then slowly retracted her gaze and muttered: "An outsider still knows that I am depressed, and he sells cute treasures to make me happy......"
Qiu Rongrong smiled bitterly and shook her head, but the person next to her persuaded her to be generous, to understand filial piety, and to understand family harmony.
Although Qiu Rongrong couldn't go to the kitchen to watch Wen Yao do it in person, she had always sent someone to keep an eye on her, and she was surprised to learn that she really had good cooking skills at a young age, after all, how old Wen Yao was, ten years old.
After noon, Mrs. Xie sent someone.
It was the grandmother next to Mrs. Xie who came, and it was a coincidence that Wen Yao had seen it.
I saw that after she entered the house, she saluted Qiu Rongrong, and then said: "Madam, the old lady has eaten, the old lady has eaten most of the four dishes on the table today, and her appetite is excellent, the old lady sent a slave to ask where she found the cook, and she will stay in the house in the future." ”
Wen Yao will be here Qiu Rongrong and wait for the result, and she is a lot more relieved when she hears the first few words, whether Mrs. Xie really has no appetite, or if she wants to block Mrs. Xie, anyway, she knows what she does.
A dish of cabbage stuffed meat, with vegetables and meat, tender and juicy, and she has processed the meat, the meat is so tender that even the toothless old man can eat it.
A Sixi ball, in the same way, is also meat, with her secret sauce, not to mention now, it turns out that there is no old professor in the entire Academy of Agricultural Sciences who does not say that the Sixi balls she makes are delicious and delicious, and they are the most suitable for their elderly to eat.
Dim sum made a dish, very simple, is to make a steamed cake for Roche and them at home, but the Xie family is rich and has many accessories, so she simply made a perfect steamed cake.
Finally, there is a bowl of sand kernel pork rib soup, wash the clean pork ribs and blanch the water to remove the blood stains, put ginger and cooking wine to remove the smell, prepare an appropriate amount of barley and fry it, soak the tangerine peel to scrape the impurities on the sac, chop the spring sand kernels, and then stew with the pork ribs for an hour.
Before serving the food, Wen Yao specially told the maid who had served the food that she must let Mrs. Xie drink the soup first and then eat the others.
You know, this soup is appetizing, and it's not surprising to be able to eat the dishes that follow.
It was this last sentence, how could Wen Yao feel so uncomfortable.
She didn't speak, just sat quietly, and the woman also saw her, and was stunned for a moment at first, so she looked away, just as Qiu Rongrong had privately invited her to thank her for saving her life.
Qiu Rongrong's face was faint, and she couldn't see her thoughts, and the mother-in-law seemed to be a little impatient to wait, so she raised her head and shouted, "Madam? ”
Qiu Rongrong casually dusted off her clothes and said, "I can't be the master of this, I have to ask the meaning of the cook." ”
After speaking, Qiu Rongrong turned her head directly and asked Wen Yao: "Miss Wen, are you willing to stay in the mansion?" ”
Wen Yao raised her eyebrows, she was not stupid.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Xie, I'm afraid not, I can't live without me at home." Wen Yao directly refused.
Qiu Rongrong glanced at the mother-in-law and said, "If the girl is willing to stay, I will not treat the girl badly, and give the girl twenty taels of monthly money." ”
Twenty taels, is she missing these twenty taels?
Okay, it's missing, but selling herself to the Xie family for twenty taels of silver is a bit worthless, there are many ways to make money, but if she wants to exchange her freedom, Wen Yao is still a little reluctant.
"I'm sorry." Wen Yao only said two words, and Qiu Rongrong understood.
Wen Yao's refusal was actually unexpected by Qiu Rongrong, after all, the monthly income she opened was already very high, but after thinking about it, it was reasonable.
After contact, she found that although Wen Yao was not very old, she was very assertive, and the two could talk well, not to mention, her brother was Dr. Jin's apprentice, and others didn't know Dr. Jin's origin, but she knew it clearly.
"In that case, forget it." Qiu Rongrong looked at the woman with a pity on her face, and said, "You also heard it, Miss Wen is unwilling, and I can't help it." ”
The mother-in-law obviously disagreed, she glanced at Wen Yao, frowned slightly, but said to Qiu Rongrong: "Madam, it's not that the old slave is too talkative, the old lady rarely has a big appetite, and I also ask the lady to think more about the old lady, the old lady is in good health, and the old lady can teach the little master with peace of mind." ”
The tone sounded calm, but it made Wen Yao hear a hint of threat.
Sure enough, Wen Yao frowned again when she saw Qiu Rongrong's beautiful face, and she also looked at Wen Yao with some apology and embarrassment in her eyes.
Wen Yao sighed, probably guessed Qiu Rongrong's situation, don't look at her as the wife of the Xie family, it seems to be beautiful, and the bitterness in it is probably only known to herself.
Recalling the plot in the original book, Xie Anyi has a talent for business, and has the support of the Qiu family's financial resources and connections, and finally became rich in the world, but it was the Xie family who benefited in the end, and even the Qiu family was rarely mentioned in the original book.
Obviously, this is a springboard.
Thinking of Qiu Rongrong's open-minded appearance for Xie Anyi, Wen Yao couldn't help but complain in her heart, this grown up Xie Anyi is not a thing, using her mother clan as a stepping stone, and finally strengthening her father's family.
Tut-tut, it can only be the life of a man and a man and a man and a man, the head of their family finally gained power, and they also know that they are looking for their brothers and sisters who were sold until they die, no wonder the head of their family can be the second man.
Wen Yao's thoughts drifted back, and she really couldn't bear to be embarrassed by Qiu Rongrong again, so she said, "But I can come every few days to help Old Madam Xie improve her food." ”
The mother-in-law obviously felt that this was not enough, and looked at Qiu Rongrong with her brows twisted, but Qiu Rongrong had already cast a grateful look at Wen Yao, and when she looked at the mother-in-law again, she returned to her cold appearance and said, "You also heard it, so go back to the old lady." ”
"Ma'am." The mother-in-law spoke again, but Qiu Rongrong didn't give her a chance, and said directly: "Stand down, I'm tired." ”
The mother-in-law didn't dare to come with Qiu Rongrong, so she could only bow respectfully and retreat.
As soon as she left, Qiu Rongrong relaxed, sighed deeply, and took the initiative to take Wen Yao's hand: "Thank you." ”
She could see that Wen Yao was helping her out.
The woman born in the merchant is the most sophisticated, and she can feel Wen Yao's kindness.
Wen Yao didn't want the topic to become so serious, so she raised the five taels of silver in her hand and said with a smile: "Didn't Madam give money." ”
Poof......
Qiu Rongrong laughed.
Wen Yao laughed for a while, and then asked as if unintentionally: "What about the little young master, why didn't you see him?" ”
