Chongxi Concubine of Time Travel

Chapter 160: Doing Good on a Rainy Night and Saving Three Lives (1)
"Good tea, the young man is pouring the old man a cup." The old man asked Sui Mo to pour him another cup, still undecided.

"Old man, you are not ashamed, how can you ask for tea for the guests." The woman came in and heard what her old man said, so she said something.

"Old lady, you don't know much about tea, so stop talking and go cook." The old man was not angry when he heard his wife's words, but said with a smile, and then sipped tea.

Shangguan Xueyan felt that she was very envious of such a life, without worrying about food and clothing. The husband and wife had lived together for a lifetime, she looked at Xuanyuan Xuanxiao, could that person really be her beloved?
Xuanyuan Xuanxiao also felt Shangguan Xueyan's gaze, but he didn't know what she was looking at him for?
"Auntie, let me cook for you." Shangguan Xueyan got up and said.

"That's a good relationship, okay, you can help auntie wash the vegetables." The woman was startled when she heard Shangguan Xueyan's words, and then said.In her opinion, Shangguan Xueyan is the kind of rich lady who doesn't stick her fingers in the sun. She said it's cooking and it's fine not to make trouble, but she couldn't refuse when the other party asked, so she said.

"Okay." Shangguan Xueyan also knew what she was thinking, so she didn't say anything.

Before entering the kitchen, Shangguan Xueyan took Wen'e to the carriage to get the ingredients. Her son was used to eating the food in the space, so she was afraid that he would not be used to the food outside.

"Ma'am, why are you still bringing vegetables, don't you have them?" The woman looked at the dishes Shangguan Xueyan and Wen'e brought in and asked.

"When our wife came out, in order to prevent her from missing the hotel and being hungry, or unable to stay at the hotel during lunch, she had to set up pots and bury stoves on the ground to cook food for the young masters. Every time she went to a place, she would buy some food and take it with her. "Wen'e explained, otherwise it would be bad for the other party to think that they dislike other people's things, and they are saying that what they said is true.

"Your wife is very considerate. Adults can be hungry, but children can't. Your young master is still growing up, so you can't be hungry." The woman who was squatting there washing vegetables agreed, She didn't expect a lady who looked very young to be so thoughtful, but she looked much younger than her daughter-in-law.

"Old madam, you don't know that the young master is what our wife loves the most. She always cooks for the young master by herself, and the young master also likes to eat the meals cooked by the madam the most." Wen'e said while washing vegetables.

"Your wife can still cook. Didn't I hear that the wives of high-ranking families don't cook by themselves?" The lady asked in surprise.

"Yes, the wives of rich families don't know how to cook by themselves, but don't look at our wife as a noble person, but she is very easy-going and treats us servants very well. If you don't believe me, let our wife cook Meal, I keep you thinking about the next meal after this meal." Wen'e heard her words, the princess is different from those hypocritical wives, all of them look noble, but in fact each one is more vicious than the other, and no one is like a princess. Well, knowing that the son is not her own, she has taken care of him for so many years, without any complaints, and treats the son as her own.

"This is not allowed. How can we let Mrs. Shangguan cook for us ordinary people? This is not acceptable. If it gets out, my old lady will be ashamed." The woman suddenly stood up and said, looking very nervous .

"Old madam, my wife didn't cook it for you specially. It's because my young master is not used to eating outside food. Our wife doesn't want to see the young master hungry, so she cooks by herself." Wen'e didn't expect that Her words frightened her, so she hurriedly said it again.

"Auntie, what are you doing? Our family is renting at your house now, so you just treat us as juniors visiting relatives. Then should I, as a junior, cook a meal for the elders?" Shangguan Xue Yan said while eating the meat she was processing.

"But Mrs. Shangguan..." The woman still didn't agree, she thought it shouldn't be.

"Auntie, we are not a noble family, but my grandfather runs a small business and has some spare money at home. He is not at home because he has been doing business all year round, so he has a little time when he comes back this time, so he wants to take me and the children out. Playing, we can live in your house today, it is also a predestined relationship between our two families, besides, the children are used to eating the food I cook, and they don’t eat it if I don’t cook it. You said it’s for the children, so I have to cook it .I see. Auntie, you don’t trust my craftsmanship, so just wait. I’ll save you an extra bowl of rice. But Auntie, today’s meal can’t be done without your help. The servant is not good at cooking the stove, so you just sit down and cook the stove." After finishing speaking, Shangguan Xueyan didn't wait for the woman to say anything, and pressed her on the small stool in front of the stove, and went back to the chopping board.

For a meal, the woman started the stove, Wen'e helped, and Shangguan Xueyan was the chef, and it was ready in no time.It was dark outside now, and oil lamps were already lit in the house.

"Master, the young master can eat." Wen'e came in with the dishes.

"Oh, I see."

"It's not an old woman's handicraft, it smells pretty good." The old man said with a smile, not saying that his wife is not at all.

"As far as you old man has a good nose, today's meal is really not made by me, it was made by Mrs. Shangguan. I know you still have some good wine. You are not allowed to keep the wine after eating the meal of Master Shangguan. Already." The woman said with a smile that her husband said that she didn't miss his realization at all.

"You don't need to tell me, old lady, I'll get it right away. I'm not a stingy person." The old man stood up and was about to go to the back room.

"Then thank you very much, sir. Suimo, go and bring some of our wine and let him taste it too." Xuanyuan Xuanxiao stood up and said to Suimo outside.

"Yes, Lord." Sui Mo ran out after hearing this.

The two brothers Xuanyuan Yunmo took the initiative to serve meals in the kitchen. They sat at two tables. Shangguan Xueyan's family and the uncle's family set a table in the main room. Na Wenxiu and the others set up a table in the other room. Shangguan Xueyan When their family eats, they don't need anyone to be close to them, mainly because Shangguan Xueyan doesn't like people watching her eat.It was originally planned to have a table for men and a table for women, and besides, this is in line with the rules.Xuanyuan Xuanxiao didn't want to wrong Shangguan Xueyan to eat at that low table and let her eat at the big table. The uncle didn't say anything and let his wife sit at the big table to accompany him.

"Mo'er, go, take this pill to your father and your Uncle Yunyin to hangover, they all drank a little too much just now." After dinner, the woman arranged the family in an empty room in the yard, Shangguan Xueyan and Wen'e lived in one room, their father and son lived in one room with Yun Yin, and the others lived in one room.The farmhouses are all the kind of big earth kang, which can sleep several people side by side without being crowded.But Shangguan Xueyan was worried that her sons would not get used to sleeping, so she took out the prepared bedding in the carriage for them.
