Being scolded as a poor widow, I relied on supernatural powers to counterattack in ancient times

At this time, people pay attention to elegance and focus on displaying dishes.Just like Wu An people held a chrysanthemum banquet, even the dishes on the banquet are mostly chrysanthemums, and the petals are used in dishes and cakes. A single golden chicken shreds is shaped like a chrysanthemum.

Whether it is similar in shape or directly into the dish, it is inseparable from today's theme.

Amidst everyone's amazement, the banquet ended smoothly without any further incidents.

It wasn't until the Baiyunxi family got on the carriage home that Mrs. Du let out a long sigh. Attending a banquet was really not something ordinary people could do. For most of the day, she had to sit there and pay attention to the surrounding things at all times. She couldn't get distracted. Can't slump down.

But if something goes wrong, it is easy to fall into the trap of others and embarrass the family.

And her face, it was so stiff from smiling, so smooth and slippery, she didn't do anything, but she was more tired than doing farm work, it was really suffocating.

Listening to Du Shi's inner complaints, Bai Yunxi curled his lips and said, "How about it? Didn't you eat well?"

The Wu family's banquet was always elegant and highly ornamental. The portions of the food were so small and exquisite that she couldn't bear to put down her chopsticks. Instead, she drank a cup of chrysanthemum soup, which tasted pretty good and had a pleasant fragrance.

Mrs. Du covered her stomach and smiled coquettishly, "Mother, Wu's food is so pretty, but it's not practical."

Every dish is arranged in the shape of a flower, branches are branches, leaves are leaves, flowers are flowers, but whenever she picks up a chopstick, it looks like a pair of embroidery has been cut, which is very embarrassing.

Moreover, the other people at the table didn't eat much, other than talking and chatting, they just drank tea, and occasionally had a snack for each of them.

Fortunately, when she came out in the morning, she drank a bowl of meat porridge and a tray of small buns.Otherwise, at this moment, the front of the heart will be on the back of the back.
The more I thought about Du Shi, the more I shook my head.

"Mom, I think this food is not for people to eat, but for the eyes."

Baiyunxi: "..."

In front of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Du didn't feel ashamed either.

"This is really incomparable with our country. We have banquets in the country. Although the dishes are not as good and the meat is less. But they are also filled with large bowls and served on the top. How can people fill their stomachs?"

"It's good for a rich family. In addition to the beautiful plates and bowls, the dishes are also arranged in various ways. Just like that plate of shredded chicken, made into a golden chrysanthemum, but if you pick up a chopstick, it looks like it's broken. If everyone doesn’t eat, I’m too embarrassed to reach out.”

Hearing Du's sighing tone, Bai Yunxi and Zhang Yishan looked at each other, and they couldn't help laughing together, and it took a while for them to stop.

"Sister-in-law, you are right. Today I only drank a cup of chrysanthemum soup and a piece of chrysanthemum cake. I am already hungry."

As she said that, Zhang Yishan rubbed her stomach, and echoed in agreement.

When going out to a banquet, no one is there for the purpose of eating.

"Since I'm not full, I'll make up for it when I get home later."

Bai Yunxi chuckled, going to the banquet today, she was still worried that someone would take the opportunity to embarrass Du Shi and Yishan, but she didn't expect the other party to come directly at her, so she didn't worry.

"Don't worry, mother. I'll go back and cook for you. There's still a lot of soup that I boiled last night. It's the most suitable for cooking scallion oil noodles. It's more comfortable to eat at home."

Listening to her mother-in-law's tone, Mrs. Du agreed without hesitation.

She was holding back her breath today, and she was not at all as happy as when she just received the invitation from the Wu family.

I originally thought that I would attend a nobleman's banquet in my lifetime and learn a lot. Even if I go back to the village in the future, I will have the capital to show off.Now she is only tired. After today, she is completely not interested in attending banquets.

Du Shi sighed and caressed the clothes on her body. The ladies attending the banquet today were all well-dressed, festively dressed, and smiling when they spoke, but she always felt that those people had hidden swords in their smiles, and they had malicious intentions, which made her tremble all the time. .

Listening to Mrs. Du's voice, Bai Yunxi curled her lips. In fact, she also agreed with Mrs. Du's thoughts. Attending a banquet is really not a worry-free job.

Back in her own yard, Bai Yunxi changed out of her fine attire, put on her usual homely clothes, lay on the Arhat bed, and Mrs. Zhu gently tapped her calf with a pair of beauty hammers to relax her muscles.

After feeling comfortable for a while, Baiyunxi sighed, no wonder everyone wants to be promoted and get rich, and there are lots of servants, it really is a pleasure to enjoy.

Just as she was squinting her eyes and preparing to take a break, a fragrant smell of scallion noodles wafted from her nostrils.

"Mom, the scallion noodles are ready, and I specially put the shrimp noodles brought from home. They are very fresh."

While talking, Mrs. Du came in with Chamomile, looked at her mother-in-law lying on the Arhat's bed, and asked the girl to put the noodles on the kang table.

Baiyunxi was a little drowsy at first, but when he smelled the fragrance, he immediately felt his stomach was empty.
"It smells really hungry."

Bai Yunxi sat up and looked at the clear soup, the thin white noodles, sprinkled with a few scallions, and a few bright oily flowers floating on it. After taking a bite, the noodles were chewy and smooth, which was Du's craftsmanship.

Among other things, Du's cooking skills are really good, not worse than the cooks outside.

"I'm busy cooking as soon as I get back, why don't you take a break?"

"After washing at home, apart from being hungry, I'm not very tired."

Du Shi smiled mischievously,
"This soup is made from old hen and pork bone soup. It takes more than half a night for the hanging soup alone. It is perfect for the bottom and meatballs."

"Well, your cooking is good. I'm used to the food you cook, and others always fail to cook it."

Since arriving in Fucheng, the kitchen has been managed by Zhang's mother who is next to Yishan, and the cook is also brought by the youngest daughter-in-law.Although the food she cooks is okay, but she is used to Du Shi's cooking skills, so she always feels that the taste is not good.

It's just that she is not a picky eater, so she doesn't care about it.

Hearing her mother-in-law's praise, Du's face was full of joy, "Mother likes to eat my cooking, and I will cook for you alone in the future, it's very easy."

She used to be in charge of the kitchen at home, and she didn't do it until she came to Fucheng.The cook's skills are not bad, and she is also a member of the fifth sibling. At first she volunteered to help, but she was politely invited out, saying that the kitchen was heavily greasy, so there was no reason to let the master work.

At first she didn't understand, but later she realized that Zhang's mother didn't want her to get involved.

Since then, she never went to the kitchen to find something to do.

It was just a few days ago that she felt bad, and she was pointed out by her mother-in-law to go to the kitchen in front of the fifth sibling. Since that day, she has been busy with her work until now.

Now it is much more convenient for her to do whatever she wants to do in the kitchen.

After a bowl of scallion noodles, Bai Yunxi picked up the handkerchief and wiped his hands. Listening to Du Shi's voice, he understood in his heart that the kitchen was the weak point of the mansion, and no matter who took over, he didn't want anyone else involved.

Firstly, I am afraid of quarrels, and secondly, the kitchen is an important place. If something happens, the manager can't bear it.
