self-improvement as a cook

Chapter 87

The reason why Yue Jintang came to Jizhou was to move the elegant house to the capital. Now that he got an idea from An Ran, he wished he could open the elegant house tomorrow. Why would he delay in Jizhou, so he hurried back to make preparations. I don't know how long the place will take, and it still needs to be tidied up, but I didn't forget to ask An Ran to draw up the recipes, after all, An Ran is an expert in this area.

It's not easy for An Ran to take shares, so naturally he has to contribute. Moreover, this idea was originally created by himself, and other cooks probably don't understand his own ideas.

In fact, top-notch luxury dishes are relatively simple, but they have much higher requirements for ingredients and service. As for the chef, An Ran has also thought about it and uses Xiaotao.

I have a big belly, so it is impossible to go to battle in person, not to mention, I have to be busy with the culinary art academy in Jizhou, and it is impossible to go to Beijing to cook the stove. From now on, I will teach her one by one, and so on. When Jingcheng Yashe opened, Xiaotao was almost able to take care of herself.

The most important thing is that such a restaurant is more suitable for girls, regardless of the environment or the strength of the kitchen. An Ran thought that maybe Xiaotao could create a shortcut for girls to learn how to cook, which is the combination of Chinese and Western. She planned to try it on Xiaotao. Try it, if it succeeds, there shouldn't be all men in the kitchen in the future.

Men and women have natural advantages and disadvantages. Men are strong but not as careful as women. A restaurant of Yashe’s level does not cook big pots of rice and carefully crafted dishes. Care is more needed than strength. Therefore, women have a natural advantage , There are also pasta and the like, which are more suitable for women.

An Ran has long thought that after the Culinary Academy has a track record, she can open a restaurant affiliated to the Culinary Academy, which can not help but provide students with opportunities for internship and employment, and can even become a window for innovation.

An Ran always believes that the power of one person is too weak, and innovation requires more brainstorming by cooks, especially young cooks, who have a more open and bold way of thinking, dare to think, dare to do, as long as they are given the opportunity, they will definitely shine. Only in this way can the kitchen business flourish and develop, which is more meaningful than how many titles of the world's best chefs.

This is something An Ran has always wanted to do and must do. However, she has not forgotten that besides being a cook, she is also a wife, mother, and the hostess of the An Mansion. There are certain things that must be faced. Such as Zhou He.

After An Ran thought about it, she always felt that the second elder brother and his wife were a little strange. What's more, Zhou He's expression was not quite right before leaving. An Ran didn't want to ask An Jiamu. Since this man was hiding it from her, why did she have to ask? If it is clear, just ask Liu Xier.

While An Jiamu was out, he called Liu Xier to him and asked him about Zhou He.

Liu Xi'er was originally An Ran's person, so naturally she wouldn't hide it from her, so she just told her how she came and went.

After hearing this, An Ran frowned: "What does Second Brother want so much money for?"

Liu Xi'er said in a low voice: "I heard that he was on good terms with Jiao Xing'er, so Jiao Xing'er's man caught him and extorted money from him."

An Ran was taken aback, Jiao Xing'er?If Liu Xi'er didn't mention it, she almost forgot who else was there.

Liu Xi'er nodded: "The last time I left our mansion, didn't the old master order the Jiao family couple to marry Jiao Xing'er within half a month? Otherwise, I would accept their errands and send them out. An honest man, the family has more than ten acres of land, and as long as they pass through the door, they can live a good life, but Jiao Xinger, father and daughter, are not happy with life and death, and wait for the dowry for nothing, and marry Yuan Lao Er, a butcher. Yuan Laoer is not a good-tempered person. Seeing that Jiao Xinger is lazy and doesn't work, he can't tolerate it. He beat her a few times and then gradually changed her mind. The second child was stuck, thinking it was a way to make money, and the second master moved 500 taels of silver from the cabinet after extorting money twice in three days."

An Ran finally understood that Zhou and the couple didn't come to see her at all yesterday, but the matter of embezzling the money was exposed, and they came to find her to keep their jobs, and she was always thinking about her past relationship, but she forgot about this person Don't talk about it when you are poor, but once you get better, you will have many thoughts that you shouldn't have.

Thinking of something, he asked: "How did the Eldest Master send you this matter?"

Liu Xi'er: "The Eldest Master didn't say anything, he just asked me to go to the accountant in the mansion to pay 500 taels of silver and send it to the restaurant to settle the deficit. As for the Second Master, the Eldest Master asked him to work in the village."

According to An Jiamu's personality, if this happened to someone else, he wouldn't say he didn't pursue it. I'm afraid he would have sent it to the Yamen right now, but now it only fell on Zhuangzi. It's really not in his nature.

Judging from Zhou He's expression, he was still dissatisfied with An Jiamu's obvious bias towards waterproofing. The shameless man she married was afraid that he would still ask Zhou He for money, so Zhou He should be taught a lesson, so as to save him from misbehaving in the future.

An Ran's guess was right, Yuan Er Er was originally greedy for Jiao Xing'er's beauty, and paid a lot of money to marry her, but no matter how good her beauty is, it's just that, and she got bored after a while. In addition, Jiao Xing'er was lazy and greedy, and she didn't do anything, which made her feel more and more unhappy, and it took two days to beat her to death.

But I don't think this girl can't work well, but she can seduce people, and she has been taken advantage of, but she has made her own way of making money. In just one month, she has made 500 taels of silver. This woman's flesh is really made of gold. In the future, she was counting on her to eat well and drink spicy food, and she had a good life, so what kind of meat did she sell, so she simply closed the meat stall, and every day she either went to the casino or went to the kiln for fun.

Although 500 taels of silver was quite a lot, he couldn't stop him from squandering it like this, so he squandered it all in a few days, then thought of Zhou Helai again, and ran to Anji Restaurant to find Zhou He's money.

When I arrived at the gate, it was the same as the previous few times, I just rushed in, I didn't want to, but this time it didn't go smoothly last time, and I was stopped by the two guys in front of the door before I went in.

Yuan Lao Er's eyes widened: "I asked Zhou He, your manager, and he owes me money, so I can't do it if I want to renege on my debt."

The two guys ignored him: "I'm afraid you've found the wrong place, our manager's surname is not Zhou."

Yuan Lao Er was stunned for a moment, and suddenly found that the faces of these two guys were a little strange, they weren't the two who came here a few times before, could it be that Zhou He committed a crime, and then he thought it was wrong, who in Jizhou City doesn't know the Zhou family now? , The goddaughter who I recognized became the eldest wife of the Anfu, and the number one chef in the world personally appointed by the emperor. When she came back to Jizhou to raise a baby, she also wanted to open a culinary academy. With such a goddaughter behind her, the money is still Unlike the stones on the street, there are as many as you want.

To put it bluntly, this week and now is Mr. An's brother-in-law, not to mention taking some money, even if he sets the restaurant on fire, it won't matter, this kid may want to hide from himself and don't want to give money.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help becoming annoyed: "You two, don't fool me, why did you change people in just a few days? Go and call Zhou He out, otherwise, I will go to the yamen and sue him for not paying back the debt. It's my reason."

Just as he was talking, he saw a man in his fifties coming out from inside, and the gatekeeper hurriedly bowed: "Guard Feng."

When Yuan Laoer saw that it was Feng Lu, he couldn't help being stunned.

Feng Lu had always been the junior steward of the restaurant, seeing Zhou He relying on the eldest wife to become the chief steward of the restaurant in one step, he was really angry.

But if you don't feel angry, you can't be angry, who made me not have such an arrogant girl like Zhou He? Fortunately, when my mother-in-law was in the big kitchen, she had a good relationship with the big lady, and I could still stay in the restaurant. My son lost his errand a long time ago. Apart from being unhappy, I was also somewhat grateful.

And the matter between Zhou He and Yuan Laoer is nothing new. Yuan Laoer went to restaurants every three days to ask Zhou He for money. Where did Zhou He get so much, so he naturally moved it to the cabinet. Yes, it was found out by the chief steward. According to the rules, Zhou He would have to face a lawsuit this time, but he just got back the money and was transferred to Zhuangzi.

Needless to say, he knew who made up the money, so after Feng Lu was promoted, he knew that the first thing he had to deal with was Yuan Er Er.

Speaking of this, Yuan Laoer is still an acquaintance. He wanted to deliver meat to the restaurant before, but he found out that Feng Lu's family was giving benefits. I was wondering when I came to Zhou He, but after a while, I found out that Zhou He had fallen in love with his wife, Jiao Xing'er.

In the words of my own mother-in-law, this matter is really a mess. I first heard that Jiao Xinger's mother intended to marry her daughter to Zhou He, and the two times she said it was almost the same. No, Jiao Xinger and her father were thinking Climbing Gao Zhi'er, the marriage will fail, and Jiao Xing'er has not left the house until this year.

I don't know how I heard that the eldest lady in the mansion used someone who used Ding Shoucai's door to go in, but seduced Xiaoyao County King in front of the old man's wife. This has become a joke in the mansion.

In a rage, the master ordered her parents to marry her for half a month, and then she became Yuan Laoer's daughter-in-law. Because of this incident, even Ding Shoucai, the housekeeper, lost his job.

Who would have thought that after Jiao Xing'er married Yuan Er Er, she would still be restless, and hook up with Zhou He again. It's really messy. If I knew it was like this, wouldn't these things be fine if I married Zhou He from the beginning? .

Seeing Yuan Lao Er now, Feng Lu naturally knew that he was here to extort money again. If he didn't take care of this matter well, he might not be in charge for long.

From the day he took over the management, Feng Lu had already thought of a way to deal with Yuan Lao Er. In fact, it is best to deal with rascals like Yuan Lao Er. Life is the life of a waiter.

Feng Lu looked Yuan Laoer up and down: "Who am I? It turns out that it is Yuan Laoer who sells meat. What's the matter, he wants to negotiate a deal with our restaurant but fails."

Yuan Laoer is not afraid of Feng Lu now, so he chuckled: "I am Zhou He's creditor now, as long as Zhou He pays back my money, I don't need to do anything to make a living."

Feng Lu nodded: "Although Guanshi Zhou has been transferred to another place, he is still from the Anfu. Our elder said that the Anfu never owes anyone money. If so, you bring the IOU, and I will let the accountant go in first." I'll give it to you, and let Guanshi make it up later, what do you think?"

Yuan Laoer was stunned, where did he get the IOU: "I don't have an IOU?"

"Is there no IOU?" Feng Lu said in embarrassment: "There must be an IOU written by Manager Zhou himself."

Seeing that Yuan Laoer was still shaking his head, Feng Lu's face sank: "Yuan Laoer, look up, this is Anji Restaurant, do you think this is the place where you extort money?"

Yuan Lao Er was also a little scared at first, but later on Zhou He got a bargain here so easily, so he was not so afraid. He felt that the An family was nothing more than a paper tiger. It looked scary, but it was actually nothing. With so much money stolen, I dare not say anything.

Thinking of this, I immediately strengthened my courage: "You, don't scare me with An's family. I didn't scare you too much. Even if there is no IOU, he, Zhou He, really owes me money. It is only right and proper to pay back the debt. I'm not afraid of hitting anywhere, if he dares to renege on his debt, I'll go to the yamen and sue him, don't mention him at that time, it's his goddamn girl, the face of your An family's eldest lady will be ashamed."

On the contrary, Feng Lu was overjoyed. This Yuan Laoer is really an idiot, so he doesn't think about who the elder is and who is the elder lady. The magistrate of Jizhou, Mr. Ji, wished he could run to An's mansion twice in three days. I can't be diligent, I'm afraid that the eldest lady will open the Anji Cooking Academy to other places, and Yuan Laoer will go to the yamen to sue Zhou He at this time, it's really boring.

Seeing a few policemen patrolling the street, he said to the two men, "Go and invite the policeman over here, and say that there is a scoundrel here who wants to extort money from Anji."

The two men hurried over, those patrolling the streets were the police officers of the Tongpan Yamen, originally the An family was a powerful and powerful family in Jizhou Prefecture, and the Tongsan and Zhifu had to catch up when they saw the An family Let's talk, what's more, they are lower-level messengers, what's more, although the An family is powerful, they are very considerate in doing things. These lower-level servants also take advantage of the An family.

Generally, Anjia's business is really serious. If you have nothing to do, come for a stroll. If you encounter someone who is not open-eyed and looking for trouble, you can't kill you if you go back.

However, as long as people from Jizhou don’t know how to settle down, they only come here to feel uncomfortable when they are full. Therefore, these police officers feel uncomfortable every day. It’s really refreshing to hear that someone blackmailed An’s family. Thinking about who is so blind, he came over and looked Yuan Laoer up and down: "You are the one who wants to blackmail the An family's money?"

Yuan Laoer originally wanted to frighten Feng Lu, but this trick worked extremely well on Zhou He. He didn't want Feng Lu to refuse this trick at all, so he directly called a few government officials who patrolled the street to come over.

Yuan Lao Er didn't see well, so he couldn't go to this yamen by himself. In the final analysis, it was Zhou He's affair with his own wife, and he still counted on this to make money. How can he tell the truth? When I was young, I was afraid of meeting officials, but when I saw the poor man, my legs went limp: "That, that, poor, poor, sir, the little one is not blackmailing, just joking, yes, joking, originally said Manager Xun Zhou is eating and drinking, I don’t think so, he’s not here today, since he’s not here anymore, I’ll go back, so I won’t disturb the servants who are doing their business.”

As he spoke, he was about to run away, but a yamen servant grabbed his neck and dragged him back: "If you say you are right, you are right. If you have anything to say, go to the yamen and take it away." Erlian pushed and shoved and went to the yamen.

Now, Zhang Tai, the general judge, was formerly Su Meng's subordinate. Su Meng was promoted to the Jinling garrison, so he recommended him. Zhang Tai knew that his boss's promotion had something to do with Mr. An's help. In addition, he had always been in contact with the Su family. , I know a lot about Chef An, and I always want to make some effort, but I never have the chance.

After all, I am not Su Meng, and I have no friendship with Mr. An, because the relationship between Mr. An and Mr. Chef is getting higher and higher, and I have a low official position and a small position, so I can't make up for it.

I was worrying about how to find a chance to get in touch with An's family. No, God sent it to him. When he heard that he was blackmailing An's family, Zhang Tai was overjoyed. This is really what he wanted, and he just finished this one. Things, even if I have hooked up with Mr. An, what will I worry about in the future.

Thinking of a black face, he didn't even realize he showed a smile, so that Yachatou, who was used to seeing adults' black faces, was almost not shocked: "My lord, my lord..."

Zhang Tai coughed: "Who is this Yuan Er Er?"

Yachatou follows the lord every day, so he doesn't know what the lord is thinking. The whole way back, his subordinates scanned and heard everything clearly: "The matter between Yuan Laoer's daughter-in-law and Zhou He is at Yuan Laoer's house. The neighborhood is not a secret thing at all, Yuan Er Er took Zhou He's money and went out blindly to fool around, and turned a blind eye to his wife and Zhou He's affairs, hoping that Zhou He would talk to his wife. If you don’t open it, Zhou and 500 taels of silver have been extorted in this month.”

500 taels?Zhang Tai gasped, this Yuan Laoer really dared to open his mouth, even the top girl in the yard only paid two or three hundred taels to redeem her body, and his daughter-in-law was made of gold: "This week, you are so stupid!" , so much money is enough to marry several daughters-in-law, why not hang out with Yuan Lao's second wife?"

The head of the yamen chattered happily: "My lord, I don't know now. The daughter-in-law of Yuan Laoer has some relationship with Zhou He, and she also has a good appearance, and she can seduce men, so Zhou He is so fascinated." Five delusions and three ways."

Zhang Tai: "That's not right, there is only one supervisor this week, so where did you get so much money?"

Yachatou: "Master, why is he confused? He doesn't have any, isn't there any on the cabinet? He moved the silver on the cabinet, checked it out for An Zihe, and reported it to the Elder Master. I heard that the Elder Master asked someone to make it up for him in secret. That's why he was transferred to Zhuangzi as an errand. Zhou He's life is really good this week. No one in Jizhou knows about Mr. An's temper. He is not a person who can rub sand in his eyes. There was an accountant who did such a thing in 100, and only moved [-] taels, and sent it to the yamen for the old man, who was beaten half to death and sent to prison. Even if he saved his life, he became a half useless person. He didn't even move a single hair."

Zhang Tai: "What do you know, the eldest lady recognized Mrs. Liu as her godmother, and Zhou He is the eldest lady's god-sister. With the rareness of the elder towards the eldest lady, don't say 500 taels of silver, even if it is 5000 taels. Seeing it in my eyes, I have to say that Zhou He really doesn't want to compete with the eldest lady this week, not to mention how much wealth the An family has, even if the eldest lady cooks a dish casually, it is worth a thousand dollars, not to mention, the elegant house in Suzhou, Qi The Fuchun residence in Fuzhou is all the business of the eldest lady, only he and his godmother open their mouths to ask how much money they want, and they do such stealthy things. It's no wonder that the elder looks down on Zhou's family. Second, I really don't want to open my eyes. It depends on the owner to beat the dog. Zhou He is confused and easy to bully, but the people behind Zhou He are not fuel-efficient lamps. They are rushing to find a grave for themselves. I want to see it. See how brave he is."

How could Yuan Lao Er have any guts, he was dazzled by Yin Zi, and when he entered the yamen, he couldn't walk on both legs, so Zhang Tai sat down and patted the gavel: "Who is under the hall?" The second child was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and swayed: "My lord, my lord, the youngest Yuan Laoer is a peddler who kills pigs and sells meat in the east of the city. He is an honest man."

"How can an honest person go to the merchant to blackmail?"

"Small, the little one didn't blackmail, just, it's just that Zhou He owed the little money, and the little one went to ask for the debt."

Zhang Tai nodded: "It's only natural to pay back the debt, so I'll show you the IOU."

"No, no IOU."

Zhang Tai's face sank: "Is there an IOU?"

"Yes, no, it was Zhou He who owed it verbally. When I saw that he was the manager of Anji Restaurant, I believed him."

"How much silver does Zhou He owe you?"

"Five, fifty, no, 100 taels, Zhou He owes 100 taels of silver." Yuan Lao Er is still not greedy at this moment, and feels that this time the yamen has been alarmed, and he will try to blackmail Zhou He in the future. It's difficult, it became a one-shot deal, first said 50 taels, then felt that 50 taels was too cheap, and then changed it to 100 taels.

As soon as the words fell, there was a slap, and Feng Lu's gavel slapped on the table: "I don't even know how much money others owe, so it's nonsense."

"No, I'm not talking nonsense, it's true, he really owes me money."

Zhang Tai: "Then tell me, how could the manager of Zhou Hetangtang Anji Restaurant owe you money for no reason?"

"This, this..." How could Yuan Laoer tell, he couldn't say that Zhou He had slept with his wife, and then extorted his money. Doesn't this mean that he didn't recruit himself? He said no for a long time speak out

Zhang Tai snorted: "Since there is no reason, and there is no IOU, it can be seen that he is a thug, drag me out and hit [-] big boards first, and see if he recruits."

The yamen responded with a nod and waved. Two messengers held Yuan Laoer and dragged him out. Then they heard the muffled sound of boards.

This hitting board is quite skillful, it sounds loud, but it doesn't matter, the more dull it is, the worse it is, if you don't beat it to death, it will kill half your life. Once the twenty boards are passed, Yuan Lao Er has passed out Yes, as soon as the cold water was poured, I just woke up.

After waking up, I heard the icy voice of Master Tongjuan: "Will you recruit Yuan Erer? If you continue to play tricks, the master will not show mercy."

"Small trick, trick, the small one is seeing that Manager Zhou has a decent daughter-in-law, and I'm tempted, so I want to extort some money..."

What Yuan Laoer said was completely inconsistent. Zhang Tai naturally knew what was going on, but he couldn't mention the previous matter. He only talked about today's matter. Although he admitted the blackmail, he didn't take it seriously. Besides, for such a scoundrel, beating him to death would tarnish his reputation, so he beat him another twenty boards and threw him out.

This Yuan Lao Er suffered forty boards before and after, and almost half of his life was gone. In addition, it was wet and cold outside the yamen, and he was frozen all night. It was not until dawn that Yexiang saw him and recognized Yuan Lao Er who was a butcher. , I got it on the dung truck and took him home.

Jiao Xing'er was afraid that Yuan Laoer would come back and she would be beaten again, and she was also thinking about Zhou He, why she didn't come for a few days, maybe she was afraid of Yuan Laoer and left herself alone.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard the door call, and went out tremblingly. When he opened the door, there was a foul smell all over his head, he couldn't help frowning, stepped back a few steps, pinched his nose and looked disgusted, seeing that it was Yexiang who was carrying blood on his back The dead person, after a closer look, was Yuan Lao Er, so he was startled.

Yexiang had never seen this kind of daughter-in-law before. When her man came back, she didn't hurry to take it, but pinched her nose with disgust, got angry, threw Yuan Lao Er at the gate, turned and left.

Jiao Xing'er looked at Yuan Er Er, and couldn't help thinking, if this man took care of himself, how could he have any hope in this life, sooner or later he would let this man die, it would be great if Yuan Lao Er died, without Yuan Lao Er , I have a good day.

Thinking of this, my heart moved, I looked around and saw that there was no one on the street, I went to the house to find a stronger rag, trembling, I pushed him, but there was no response, as if passed out , became bolder, gritted his teeth, and pressed hard on his nose and mouth.

Yuan Lao Er woke up suddenly, opened his eyes, and began to struggle, but Jiao Xing'er was terrified, fearing that this blow would not kill him, and his own life would be lost.

He didn't stop doing anything, saw half of a blue brick next to him, picked it up and smashed it down, smashed it several times, Yuan and Lao Erfang became silent, Jiao Xing'er sat on the ground exhausted, and it took a long time to recover .

Looking at Yuan Laoer, he couldn't help being startled, his eyes were wide open, his face was covered with blood, he was scarier than a ghost, he stood up hurriedly and ran into the house.

Thinking about it wrong, it's not appropriate to be seen like this, so I hurriedly took a cloth and soaked it in the bucket, went out trembling, wiped the blood off Yuan Lao Er's face, tidied up the wound on his head, I felt that it was almost done, so I called out loudly.

When the neighbors heard the movement, they didn't bother to go to sleep, they all came out to watch, and when they saw Yuan Laoer like this, they knew that they might lose their lives. Yes, and Jiao Xing'er was born with a good appearance and a sweet mouth. Uncle and brother called out, and many people helped, and hurriedly carried Yuan Laoer's body in, and then went to find the coffin shop.

Yuan Lao Er is an outsider, and has no parents, brothers, or relatives in Jizhou, which made Jiao Xing'er feel very relieved, so she just asked someone to send a letter to her natal family.

After a while, Mrs. Jiao and Mrs. Jiao came, and Jiao Xinger's father was very happy. Although Yuan Laoer didn't have much family property, he was better than his own family. Now that he died, wouldn't they all become his own daughters?

Aunt Jiao felt sorry for her daughter, and kept saying how good it was to be a widow at a young age. Even though she knew that her son-in-law was not a good person, he had to be tidied up and put on all her clothes. up.

Aunt Jiao often helps those who do funerals. This is nothing to do, so she goes to dress Yuan Laoer. Everyone else is afraid of death, so no one dares to take a closer look. They just carry him in and cover them with a mat. It's all over, now Mrs. Jiao can see that something is wrong when she looks at it, the head is clearly injured by the blow.

Dazed for a moment, he involuntarily looked into the courtyard, and suddenly saw some blood on the half of the brick in the corner of the wall over there, he was suddenly startled, and then saw that his daughter was crying but there were no tears, the sadness on her face was also vain Yes, on the contrary, there was some faint joy coming out.

As the saying goes, mother-in-law Mo Ruomu, Mrs. Jiao knows exactly what her daughter looks like. Could it be Jiao Xinger's black hands who killed her man and almost lost her soul? How could this girl do such a thing? The black hand, on the other hand, leaked his whereabouts.

He hurriedly calmed down, picked up the brick while no one was looking, the brick went into the latrine and threw it into the cesspit, he was relieved just now, and he knew that Yuan Laoer let Jiao Xing'er be beaten and scolded, if he died, he would die Well, it was said outside that he blackmailed An's family, let the judge beat forty boards, and lost his life, so that's fine, just send it off.

Yuan Lao Er just died for no apparent reason. Once he died, Jiao Xing'er felt at ease, looking forward to Zhou He's coming to find her all day long, but a month passed in a blink of an eye, and even the shadow of the ghost disappeared, so she couldn't help but feel a little anxious .

At this time, Mrs. Jiao realized that something was wrong. Her daughter had been vomiting for the past two days, and she always retched a few times when she woke up in the morning. Could it be?Busily looking for a doctor, he said that he had been married for two months.

Mrs. Jiao was so worried, she was thinking of finding another home for her daughter, so as to save her a lifetime of loneliness, now she is only sixteen and widowed, when will she be punished?

This man is dead, what to do with the child, and how the orphan and widow will live in the future, I wonder if I tried to take medicine and beat the child.

Don't want to mention it before, my daughter took her hand and said happily: "Mother, go to the Zhou family, the child in my daughter's belly belongs to Zhou He."

This sentence almost didn't scare Mrs. Jiao to death, she hurriedly said: "Your man has just passed away for a month, how could the two-month-old joy in your stomach belong to Zhou He? It won't be a shame if it spreads."

But Jiao Xing'er didn't feel ashamed, and snorted: "Who are you to lose me? Don't you find me a man like Yuan Laoer because you think I'm ashamed? You know, he beat me up and took me off." I took off my clothes, fell on the locust tree in the yard and whipped it, it’s not my fate, I’ve been tossed to death by him, where can you still see my daughter, go burn the paper on the grave.”

Mrs. Jiao was also distressed, but no matter how she thought about it, she said, "The belly of the Zhou family's second daughter-in-law is seven or eight months old, and she is about to give birth. You suddenly said that it is Zhou He's child." , do you still expect the Zhou family to marry you to enter the door? I knew it would be like this. On the same day, Mother told you that the Zhou family is related, so why did you refuse to agree to it?"

Jiao Xing'er: "Who would have known that Zhou He was so promising that he could become the chief steward of Anji Restaurant. If he had known earlier, I wouldn't agree to anything. Mother wouldn't care about the child for a few months, just go to Zhou He. If you dare not admit it, the daughter will give birth to the child and sit in front of Zhou's house, and no one will live a quiet life."

Mrs. Jiao had nothing to do, so of course she couldn't find Zhou He, but came to Zhou's house to look for Aunt Liu, and when she told the story, Aunt Liu felt a thunderbolt fall on a sunny day, trembling with anger, and hurriedly beckoned Zhou Tai to call Zhou He over.

Now that Zhou He has no job in the restaurant, Zhuangzi is very busy and doesn't need him at all. What An Jiamu means is to support him, don't go out to find work, and simply stay at home and dodge.

When I was free, I thought of Jiao Xing'er. Jiao Xing'er's snow-white body and enchanting posture are really more attractive than the sisters in the brothel. It's okay if you haven't tasted it before. After you taste it, you will never forget it. .

You Qi saw that his daughter-in-law was stupid and clumsy, with a big belly, she was neither interested nor able to speak, and felt even more annoyed. Just as she was thinking about going to look for Jiao Xing'er, his brother came and called her mother He has something in his past.

Zhou He didn't suspect him, so he followed his eldest brother to his mother's yard. As soon as he entered the door, before he could speak, he was hit in the mouth by the pocket, which blinded Zhou He. Seeing her trembling like a girl, he hurried to go He moved forward, but his mother pushed him away and pointed at him: "You are really giving our parents Zhou a face. I heard someone outside say that you moved the silver on the restaurant cabinet and filled it with Jiao Xinger's man. Still don't believe it, just say that no matter how stupid you are, you won't be so confused, now you know it's true, now that Jiao Xing'er's mother came here and said that the child in Jiao Xing'er's belly is yours, but you should tell me Is it yours?"

Zhou He was stunned for a moment, although he was beaten by his mother twice, he felt a little happy in his heart. Jiao Xing'er was really reluctant to let go. Hearing that Yuan Laoer had died and Jiao Xing'er was a widow, he was thinking about it when he suddenly Having a child, doesn't it mean that you have an upright reason? If you can get Jiao Xing'er to marry back, it will be worth it if you try hard to get your parents to beat you up.

Thinking of this, Plop knelt on the ground: "Mother is an unfilial son, the child in Jiao Xing'er's womb is indeed his son's."

Aunt Liu's eyes darkened and she almost fainted.

Zhou Tai hurriedly supported his mother, and glared at Zhou He: "What nonsense are you talking about? Jiao Xinger's man has only died for a month, and now the child in her belly is two months old. How could it be yours? Don't be greedy. She looks pretty, so I just recognized her randomly, my brother and sister are going to give birth soon, if they know about it, it will be very uncomfortable."

Mrs. Jiao didn't like to hear it: "It's okay if your Zhou family doesn't recognize it. My daughter said that if you don't recognize it, wait until the child is born and sit at the gate of your Zhou's house. If your Zhou family is not afraid of losing face, what are we afraid of?" " As she was about to leave, Aunt Liu regained her composure and hurriedly grabbed her: "Sister, don't be annoyed, let's discuss this matter in detail."

"What are you discussing? Don't your family deny it?"

Aunt Liu sighed, as if she had aged ten years all of a sudden: "We have been old sisters for many years, and we originally wanted to be in-laws of our children, but now we have turned a corner and come back again, so we can be counted as our two families. Fate, however, the second child is married now, and Jiao Xinger of your family can only be a child when she comes in. You can go back and ask your daughter, if you are willing, you can find a day to bring her in, it is only about the child in your belly, Don't say anything, after all, Jiao Xinger's man just disappeared, if this news gets out, even the ancestor's face will be lost."

Mrs. Jiao naturally knew this reason. Now that the Zhou family recognized Jiao Xinger, with the support of the eldest lady, the life of the Zhou family could only get better and better. He and his daughter-in-law are honest and will not bully their own daughter, which is better than leaving her as a widow in the Yuan family.

After they made up their minds, they discussed it together and found a day to bring Jiao Xing'er in. As soon as Jiao Xing'er came in, within a month, he made the Zhou family go crazy.

For a while, they thought the house was not big enough, and for a while they thought the food was not good enough. They were arguing about making new clothes or buying jewelry. Later, they simply broke up and moved the family, especially those who were bullied by Mrs. Chen, to the hut. The son who was looking for trouble spread small words to Zhou He, which made Zhou He dislike Chen Shi even more.

Don't look stupid, Mrs. Chen, but she also has her own mind, thinking that if this goes on, it doesn't matter if she lives or dies, she has to think about the child in her stomach.

After thinking about it, she thought of Da Furen, although she did not dare to be Da Furen because she was a daughter-in-law, but Chen could also see that Da Furen really regarded herself as her sister-in-law, if she begged Da Furen herself, it might be a way out.

Having made up his mind, he found an opportunity to enter Anfu early this morning.

Liu Xi'er was startled when she saw Mrs. Chen. The last time I saw her was a six-month-old belly, her body was strong and her complexion was good. Now that it's been two months, why is she so thin, her face is gray? good color.Knowing that Da Furen liked Chen Shi very much, she personally led her in.

When Mrs. Chen came in, An Ran was teaching Xiao Tao how to make Baihua crab claws...
