Seeing Zhao Ling's vow, Mrs. Zhao finally gave up her thoughts.

She originally thought about asking Zhao Xiaohe to go to Hexi Village to call her two daughters-in-law, but seeing that Zhao Xiaohe was busy and she couldn't do those things for Zhao Xiaohe, she simply didn't ask him to go, and turned around and walked out with a few empty baskets.

On the road, I met many women from Hedong Village who were carrying honey locusts on their backs. When these people saw her, they all turned away and said nothing to her.

Now, probably because she wanted to make money from her daughter, everyone had smiles on their faces and talked to her enthusiastically.

Mrs. Zhao didn't really want to talk to her, but when others spoke, she ignored them and felt arrogant, so she had to deal with them with a sullen face and a few words that were lukewarm.

But after saying hello, I felt indescribable pride in my heart.

I didn’t expect that she would be able to ask others to say nice things in her lifetime, and it was all thanks to her daughter.

With such unspeakable joy, Mrs. Zhao dragged several large baskets into the main gate of Zhao's house.

Xiaocao was drying clothes in the yard, her two daughters-in-law were busy working, and the children were also helping.

Mrs. Zhao used to feel bored when she saw these little cubs. Today, I don't know whether it was because she was in a good mood or something else, but she suddenly felt that these children were quite cute.

It's just that cuteness is cute, but fierceness is still better.

Mrs. Zhao put the basket in the corner of the yard and said to Xiaocao with a straight face: "Tell your mother and your second aunt that we won't make lunch at home. Let's go to your sister-in-law's house to eat."

Xiaocao's eyes suddenly lit up, but she didn't dare to show her happiness, so she just nodded obediently.

She quickly dried her clothes and then ran to the backyard.

After a while, both Lin and Yang came back.

The two daughters-in-law were probably surprised and asked Mrs. Zhao cautiously: "Mom, are so many of us going to my sister-in-law's house for dinner?"

"Yes." Mrs. Zhao nodded majestically, "Don't you two work too hard? Bring the bit of meat you cut back at home, and a piece of tofu, right? Put them all in, and bring a few eggs.

Bring the kids with you and let’s go there to eat.”

Lin and Yang looked at each other, feeling strange, but they didn't refute, and nodded repeatedly.

Mrs. Zhao washed her hands herself. Seeing that the children were in high spirits, her face softened a little.

But when everyone gathered but Zhao Lao San was nowhere to be seen, Mrs. Zhao frowned and asked, "Where is Lao San?"

Mrs. Lin glanced at the room with the closed door and whispered: "I haven't seen my uncle since I woke up in the morning. The door seems to have been closed all the time."

Xiao Miao ran over, raised her head, and said to Mrs. Zhao, "Grandma, I know where Uncle Third has gone."

Mrs. Zhao looked at him condescendingly, frowning, and asked, "Where have you gone?"

"In the morning, someone came to call my third uncle, and he followed him away. I don't know where he went. It seemed to be a happy place."

Children are ignorant and speak with sincerity and sincerity.

But Mrs. Zhao's expression changed as soon as she heard this.

What a happy place, isn't that place a place of harm to people?

Either the gambling house in Changlefang, or the Fireworks Alley, which seduces men's souls. This third child hasn't been home for more than half a year, so why did he contract this problem?

Mrs. Zhao's good mood suddenly plummeted. She stared at Zhao Xiaomiao for a long time without saying anything.

The child probably finally realized the fear and quickly hid behind his sister Xiaocao.

There was silence in the yard for a moment before Mrs. Zhao suppressed her emotions and said, "Let's go to your sister-in-law's house first."

Several people took their children and set off in a grand way.

After all, Mrs. Zhao is a person who can hide things. Although she feels unhappy, she can still put on a smile when meeting people on the street.

After arriving in Hedong Village, those who had made money from Zhao Ling's hands narrowed their eyes with laughter when they met Mrs. Zhao on the road.

In the past, everyone was inseparable from each other, but now when they look at Mrs. Zhao, they feel affectionate like long-lost sisters.

Although Mrs. Zhao was disdainful of this kind of person in her heart, she thought that he was also taking care of her daughter's business, so she acted with him.

It wasn't until she entered the courtyard that she realized how many people were coming.

The yard was very busy, and in just a short while, Zhao Ling started sweating on his forehead.

Zhao Xiaohe was even more busy and dizzy. She had to help dry the honey locusts, and also wanted to see if anyone had made a mess, so as to avoid another dispute between the two parties.

Mrs. Zhao originally wanted to help, but her viciousness was well-known in the two villages, and most people automatically backed away after seeing her.

In addition, she couldn't figure out some of the quantities, so she simply asked Xiaocao and a few children to keep an eye on them while she took her two daughters-in-law into the kitchen.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the three of them entered, they were shocked by Qi Shu's knife skills.

The ordinary-looking vegetables suddenly became neat and beautiful after seeing Qi Shu's slender, cold white hands that looked like they were writing hands.

The women in the village cook, except for some people who have high requirements for cooking skills, most of them are not too bad to eat.

There is nothing particular about chopping vegetables.

Who would have known that cooking here in Qishu would become an art form.

There are strips and blocks, and each one has its own shape and is exquisitely similar. It's like... it's like it was made from the same mold.

Even Mrs. Zhao has not yet mastered such knife skills.

How could Qi Shu, a grown man and a scholar, have mastered such a unique skill?

Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Yang were originally here to take over the kitchen, but when they saw this scene, they were a little embarrassed and didn't dare to step forward.

Qi Shu, on the other hand, turned around and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, why are you here?"

Mrs. Zhao glanced at him, coughed and said, "We...we will help you cook."

"I've almost cut the vegetables here. I'll just cook them later. I don't have much help. You can go outside and rest."

Qi Shu is a man after all, and it is not convenient for him to be in the same space with several women. He is uncomfortable and gossips a lot.

Mrs. Zhao also felt that this was the case. She was ready to ask Qi Shu out just now, but now seeing Qi Shu's superb cooking skills, she couldn't speak.

After a moment of silence, Qi Shu could only say: "We have brought another piece of meat, as well as tofu and eggs. If you have time..."

Qi Shu agreed: "Okay, it just so happens that I don't have any meat dishes here, and it costs my mother-in-law money."

Listening to what he said to Wen Zou Zou, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but look at him a few times.

When I came to Qi's house in the past, although this scholar's son-in-law was not cold-faced, he didn't talk much most of the time and seemed alienated from them.

Let alone say something nice to her mother-in-law.

But this time, within this short time, Mrs. Zhao felt that Qi Shu's attitude had changed a lot.

Not only was he polite and courteous, but he also showed a familiarity with his family.

Yes, it’s the feeling of my own family.

She hadn't remembered it just now, but now she felt that Qi Shu did not regard them as a family before, nor did she think that he was the son-in-law of the Zhao family.

Instead, this time, he made the identity of the Zhao family's son-in-law clear.

why is that?

Is it because my daughter has become more capable?
