C56 (1/2)
Xiaowan had already thought about it long ago, not lying easily because of the use of the storage ring. She wanted to solve all the problems herself, so she braced herself and went to the kitchen.
But it took longer than noon, and the food was less than noon, and there was no chicken to save a dish, and finally a plate of mahogany tofu and a pot of meat to go back to.
Ling Chaofeng was at a loss while looking at the two plates of food. Aunt Zhang raised his eyebrows, scooped a mouthful of rice up to the bottom, then dared to bring the food into his mouth.
For lunch, Aunt Zhang looked like she was hungry, but at night, the difference in taste between them was too. It was hard to imagine giving General Wei and the rest lunch like this … Just as she was about to ask Xiaowan what was going on, Ling Chaofeng grabbed her chopsticks and started eating silently.
Even though he only sent a few pieces of tofu with three or four mouthfuls of rice and two pieces of meat that could eat half a bowl, the shopkeeper had no choice but to silently eat the whole bowl of rice.
When said that she was full, she scooped up the food and stuffed it into her mouth. Just as she was about to stuff it into her mouth, she almost vomited. Three times?
Of course, it wasn't that the Xiaowan didn't know how to cook at all.
”Hubby …” Xiaowan looked at his husband who was walking upstairs and said guiltily, ”How about I bring you some tea?”
”No tea. I'll go upstairs and write a letter. I'll be down shortly.” Ling Chaofeng replied nicely.
At the bottom of the building, Aunt Zhang and Xiaowan had washed the dishes with water and ate them with difficulty.
The Xiaowan did not understand why Ling Chaofeng was able to eat all of the food so calmly. On the other hand, the Aunt Zhang was curious. Speaking of which, when the dishes were served at noon, she was very surprised that Xiaowan's culinary skills were so old.
”Grandson …”
”Aunt, I'll make breakfast tomorrow.” Xiaowan calmed herself down and said, ”I will do it.”
For his own husband to eat such a horrible thing, Xiaowan felt extremely pained, and hated herself for not being able to do it. However, Ling Chaofeng did not complain at all. Her husband was so considerate, she was even more determined to learn how to cook.
As for Ling Chaofeng, he didn't blame the Xiaowan for her lack of culinary skills, he was only curious, did Wei Tengfei really eat such a thing in one bite?
The reason he could endure it was because he was in pain for the Xiaowan, but what about Wei Tengfei?
It was a good thing that Wei Tengfei was about to leave. As a general of Chuanyu, if he had nothing to do in the future, he wouldn't come to this small place again.
At the moment, what troubled Ling Chaofeng was that he had formed a feud with Meng Kun, if it was settled in the future, the old cunning fox might be dissatisfied and want to pester him and ask for more.
As she sat at the table thinking, Xiaowan brought in a cup of tea. Her timid look caused people to love him, and Ling Chaofeng laughed: ”Next time, just put less salt, no one is born to cook, but no one dares to use such skills to entertain guests, don't try to be brave, just don't do business.”
Xiaowan asked, ”Hubby, then are you still going to eat the food I make?”
Ling Chaofeng laughed: ”Eat, why aren't you eating?”
Seeing that the letter was empty, it had been a long time but the husband still did not say a word, Xiaowan asked with concern: ”Is there something that you can't write down?”
Ling Chaofeng nodded his head, ”I want to kick Meng Kun out, so that the tavern won't become tangled later on.”
Xiaowan nodded her head repeatedly: ”That kind of bad thing is not fit to be a parent official.”
But Ling Chaofeng said: ”What about Miss Meng, I know that Ershan is moved, and it is definitely not normal for Miss Meng to come and see him again, they have some feelings for each other, if it is Meng Kun who knows about it, he would use her own daughter to threaten us.”
The Xiaowan also understood this: ”It's easy for us to snatch the Miss Meng away, but if this were to spread, how would Ershan become an official in the future?
Hearing this, Ling Chaofeng was very pleased with Xiaowan's intelligence, but she should not have worried about it, and said: ”Don't worry, I will think about it, what I should do is the best.”
As a result, Ling Chaofeng only finished writing the letter in the middle of the night. Xiaowan had long fallen asleep, but when he felt his husband laying down, he sleepily crawled over and the two of them cuddled up with each other for an entire night.
The next day, the Xiaowan woke up early and made breakfast in the kitchen. Without using the Jade Ring s, she fried a plate of eggs and dried meat herself and cooked a pot of viscous millet porridge. It was simple yet decent.
Today was the final day of Imperial examinations. Xiaowan and her wife cleaned Ershan's room together, and took the bedding and basked it under the sun. After finishing their work, Aunt Zhang stuck her waist and said: ”Just based on Ershan's current situation, wanting to marry a wife is not easy, but finding a little girl in the village is not difficult. If you want to marry a Prefect's daughter, even if Prefect Meng agrees, Ershan himself would definitely not dare. Everything that he has now is given by the inn. Could it be that the rear courtyard is just a small room for the bride to stay in? ”
Xiaowan thought, with this much money, it would not be difficult for Ling Chaofeng to buy a plot of land. But it was just as Aunt Zhang had said, everything was given to him by the tavern, and Ershan himself did not have the ability to support a family.
