After the separation, my wardrobe is modern

Chapter 265 What’s causing trouble every day?
Pangzi looked at Lin Xiaoman with a strange look on his face, then smiled and said: "My daughter, Jianmu, or my son-in-law, what do you say about rent and not rent? I asked your siblings to babysit their children, and I didn't let them take any money, right? Besides, I sell wine and vegetables, and the people who come to drink and eat vegetables may also buy their braised food, which means their shop has a lot of space, and I can still help them."

Lin Xiaoman shook his head helplessly and asked: "The younger siblings helped take care of the children, but my cousin didn't say anything?"

Pangzi curled her lips after hearing this, "Originally, it was your younger brother and sister's job to honor your parents-in-law and take care of the family and outside the home. Now she gets more than 300 taels of rent from the shop a year, and I didn't ask her to hand it over to the government. She is not allowed to take care of a whole family by herself, so what do you want from your cousin and the others? Where do all these things come from?"

Lin Xiaoman frowned when she heard this. This natural and condescending attitude was so similar to the fragments of novels she had read about the discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
A person takes everything for granted, and a person gradually becomes dissatisfied. Over time, if he does not perish in silence, he will explode in silence.

What's more, the rent of more than 300 taels a year for the shop was not given by Pangzi. She, the person who gave the shop, didn't say anything, but her aunt was right.

Although Lin Xiaoman didn't like Hu's petty personality, she even didn't like Pang's temperament, which seemed to be all-around well-rounded but always stabbed others with soft knives.

When I was young, every time I went to my maternal grandfather's house, my aunt seemed to be enthusiastic on the surface, but in fact she always used words to bully the mother and daughter. At that time, my mother would happily pretend not to understand.

But even a child can understand her, why can't my mother understand it?
The stepmother always said that as a married woman, she should stay less involved in her mother's family affairs, but she had been close to her cousin He Mingrui since she was a child. She didn't want him to affect his studies because of trivial things at home, so she thought of calling Mrs. Hu back for a chat.

Anyway, she also sent several servants to the He family. Without the Hu family, the family would not be able to move forward, right?
Lin Xiaoman asked Pang to go to the kitchen. The chef at home was a father and son named Li who were brought back from the Lu family in the capital.

The father-in-law worked in the imperial kitchen for a period of time, and was later given to Lu Jin by the emperor. Now he brought him out of the capital.

Lin Xiaoman, who originally had great cooking skills, taught them how to cook a few delicacies, and now his cooking skills seem to be better than those of the palace chefs.

Lin Xiaoman asked Chef Xiao Li to teach Pang how to make braised elbow. If she wanted to learn it, she could also teach her a few other dishes as long as it wasn't too much.

Pang wanted to learn all kinds of dishes, but her cooking skills were only considered good in the eyes of country people. The chef's techniques and ingredients dazzled her, even if Chef Li tried his best to explain and cook in detail. Be slow, Ponzi didn’t forget this or that.

Chef Xiao Li had no other choice, so he asked her to learn two dishes. By the evening, she finally learned how to braised elbow and braised pork belly.

Pang was still very reluctant to leave when she went back, and repeatedly asked Chef Li to wait for her to come over tomorrow to continue learning.

After receiving Lin Xiaoman's instructions, Chef Xiao Li naturally nodded in agreement. He learned these dishes from the princess, and he naturally had no objection to the princess asking him to teach them.

Pang came back with a wooden barrel of braised elbows and half a wooden barrel of braised meat. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Brother Cheng, Sister Xiang, what delicious food has I brought you?"

Brother Cheng and Sister Xiang ran out of the hall holding hands, and Brother Lu's cry came from behind them.

The brother and sister called grandma and threw themselves into Pangzi's arms. Pangzi put down the barrel, picked up the two little guys and kissed them. When he saw that the little guys were reaching for the food in the barrel, Pangzi put them away. lay down.

Looking up, she saw Mrs. Hu standing at the door holding Brother Lu who was crying and sobbing. The distressed look on her face made her feel unhappy. A half-hearted smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "Brother Lu, no." Now that he's young, you don't have to hold him in your arms every day as if you're afraid that others will touch him."

Mrs. Hu explained: "No, just now Brother Cheng, Sister Xiang, pushed Brother Lu down when he ran out, and Brother Lu's head hit the corner of the chair..."

Pang frowned, "It's our brother Cheng's fault and sister Xiang's fault. It's because I, the nanny, didn't teach her well."

He said to Brother Cheng and Sister Xiang who were holding the edge of the barrel and looking in: "You hurt your brother and made your aunt unhappy. You deserve to be punished!" After saying that, he grabbed their little hands and held each of them in his hand. Take a shot.

Looking at the strength of holding it up high and putting it down gently, the two children burst into tears.

"Mom, I didn't blame them either. Why did you hit them?"

Pangzi smiled and said: "If you do something wrong, you will be beaten. If you can't bring a bowl of water to the table, you will be wronged again."

After saying that, he called Mrs. Xu who was standing aside to carry the bucket to the kitchen. She followed behind holding a child in one hand.

It was as if a soft knife was cutting into the flesh of her heart. Mrs. Hu couldn't help crying. Seeing her mother crying, Brother Lu cried even more aggrievedly, but the cry was weak. I don't know if he was distracted by crying. He started to retching while crying.

He Mingrui happened to come in at this time and saw Mrs. Hu standing in front of the main room crying with her child in her arms. He could also hear the cries of his niece and nephew coming from the kitchen, as well as Pang's gentle coaxing.

Asked: "What's going on? The kids got into a fight?"

Just as Hu was about to explain, Pang poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "Brother Cheng and Sister Xiang were ignorant and knocked down Brother Lu. I was afraid that your wife would feel uncomfortable, so I beat the two children."

He Mingrui glanced at Mrs. Hu and frowned, "How can children be together without bumping into each other? Are you making such a fuss about it?"

Madam Hu replied: "Brother Lu was crying, and my mother asked me why I was crying? I just said that I was knocked down by Brother Cheng and Sister Xiang, so my mother beat them. What's more..." That raised his head and patted me. How can it be considered a fight?
Before he finished speaking, Pangzi hurriedly said: "Didn't you originally ask me to vent my anger on Brother Lu when you complained? This is because I, a grandma, have done something wrong and should be beaten!"

After saying that, he slapped his hand.

He Mingrui's face became even more ugly, "Mom, how can I blame you when a child hits me? Why are you suffering?"

Pangzi waved his hand, "Mom just wants you and your wife to be happy, and it doesn't matter what you do."

After saying that, he covered his face and entered the kitchen.

He Mingrui felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw his mother running into the kitchen. His eyes turned cold when he looked at Mrs. Hu, and he restrained his temper and said, "Mother cares about you, what are you doing every day? You can't live peacefully." ?”

Mrs. Hu got angry after being scolded by him, "What did I do? When did you see me make trouble? Why do you always say that I made trouble every time my mother said a few words? It was obviously Brother Lu who was hit. You cry when it hurts, and it’s my fault before I even said anything? You are not such a bully!"

After saying that, Mrs. Hu carried Brother Lu back to her room.

He Mingrui stretched out his hand to hold her, but only a piece of clothes touched his fingers.
