Fortunate Wife

Can you have a little more spicy food?

Li Man glanced at her, but did not expose Shangguan Xue's attempt to cook pickled fish for Yan Jinxue, but said, "There is no pickled cabbage at home, next time I buy some, I will teach you how to make it, and today I will teach you how to make something else. "

"What?" Shangguan Xue looked slightly disappointed. She saw that day that Yan Jin liked to eat pickled fish.

Seeing her like this, Li Man sighed slightly in her heart, but said with a smile on her face, "Look at how fat this fish is, the fish head is delicious when it's just roasted. Today I will teach you how to make fish head with chopped peppers, you Can't you eat spicy food? Then I'll put more chili peppers to exercise you. Keep this dish so you can eat it, and you won't be afraid of any spicy food in the future."

"Ah?" Shangguan Xue's little face turned pale with fright when he heard that he put more chili peppers.

Beside, Tian Ningying saw this, and secretly pursed her lips and smiled. In private, the two little girls seemed to have become best friends, and they talked a lot about each other's concerns and private affairs.

Therefore, Tian Ningying was fully aware of Zhi Zhi's thoughts about Shangguan Xue at the moment.

A little girl who doesn't dare to eat spicy food insists on asking her to eat spicy food, huh, huh, that's cruel, especially, the skin of both of them is not as good as Man'er's sister-in-law. Acne is scary just thinking about it.

"What? Don't dare?" Li Man teased again, "This fish head with chopped peppers is even more delicious than fish with pickled cabbage."

Shangguan Xue hurriedly shook her head, "No, I dare, I will learn from this pepper-chopped fish head."

"Okay." Li Man responded, then squatted down, picked out the biggest fish, and handed it to Shangguan Xue, "You come."

"What are you doing?" The romping fish slid to the ground as soon as it was in his hand, Shangguanxue wanted to pick it up anxiously, but the fish was bouncing around and there was no way to get his hands on it.

Li Man had no choice but to catch the fish by herself, threw it on the chopping board, picked up the kitchen knife, and said, "The first step in making fish heads with peppers is to have fish heads, so you must be good at handling this fish."

When it was over, she handed the kitchen knife to Shangguanxue and asked her to kill the fish.

As soon as Shangguan Xue held the kitchen knife, her hand shook, "Sister, I don't know how to do it."

"Don't be afraid." Li Man gently shook her hand and said, "This is the first step in learning how to cook. You have to understand the dishes in your hands. Also, even if you want to cook for others in the future, The work of cutting and washing vegetables was done by others, and you didn’t do anything except stir-fry them a few times, do you feel willing?”

Shangguan Xue shook her head, "Not reconciled."

If she cooks fish for Yan Jin, she will never want to pretend to others, not at all, including the fish she has to choose by herself.

Li Man raised her eyebrows, "That's it. Every process of cooking has been poured into your own emotions. Therefore, the cooked dishes will be fragrant, and will be able to touch the heart of the person who eats the dishes."

She felt that in fact, the dishes she cooked were not that delicious, but the men of the Li family never ate enough, why?

It's just that she thinks that she cooks hard, and when she cooks, she pours out her love for them, so that they feel delicious in their mouths and sweet in their hearts.

"En." With Li Man's words, Shangguan Xue's eyes became firmer little by little, and she picked up the kitchen knife to chop up the fish head.

Tian Ningying who was next to her was scared by that fierce posture, and quickly hid away, shouting, "Xue'er, be careful, don't chop off your own hands."

Li Man glanced at her, "Ying'er, don't talk nonsense."

While catching Shangguanxue, holding her hand holding the knife, he said, "Shoot the fish unconscious with the knife first, so that it can be killed."

"En." Shangguanxue tried it twice, probably with enough force, the fish really didn't move, and she was sweating profusely, "Sister, it fainted."

"Okay, you want the fish head, I want the fish body, this fish meat is very delicious, I'll make some fried fish balls for the children to eat." Li Man said.

Tian Ningying immediately said, "We want to eat too."

"Okay, if you want to eat, pick out the fishbone for me later." Li Man said with a smile, and looked back to see that Yunyan's juice was almost ready, and said, "Yunyan, your juice making skills are getting better and better, next time, I'll give you a juicer too."

"Really?" Yun Yan liked the smell of fruit juice very much, and was pleasantly surprised to hear that.

Li Man nodded, "Really. But we have to wait for Li Yan to be busy for a while."

"Yes, he did it?" Yun Yan was suffocated, looking away unnaturally.

Tian Ningying came over and said, "My second cousin made it. My second cousin's hand is so good that he can do anything. As long as my sister-in-law draws a picture, he can make it according to the shape."

"Oh, don't worry about it." Yun Yan said to Li Man in an embarrassing manner.

Li Man chuckled, "No trouble, you are also my cousin, so you can drink whenever you want at home."

"This—" Thinking of Li Yan, Yun Yan didn't dare to think about it, "He won't agree."

"Yunyan." Li Man patted her on the shoulder lightly, and said, "Don't mention him, you just look like this, okay? It's as good as before, with a little smile on your face, you're just like that." It's pretty."

"That's right." Tian Ningying also said, "You are so beautiful, I'm afraid you won't be able to get married. My second cousin is not successful, and there are other men. How about—"

The girl rolled her eyes, and suddenly said pleasantly, "Sister Yun, why don't you consider my elder brother."

"Ah." Yun Yan was embarrassed.

After Shangguan Xue finished killing the fish, she also came over with a kitchen knife and said, "Yes, Sister Yun, Brother Ning An is a good man, or you can marry him, and then kiss him better."

Yun Yan became more and more embarrassed, and hurriedly pushed away

The two said, "I'm going to pack the juice."

"Sister Yun, I'm serious, just consider my elder brother." Tian Ningying chased after her, but she was eager to recognize her as sister-in-law.

Yun Yan just bowed his head and remained silent.

Li Man pulled Tian Ningying away, "You are free, go pick and wash these vegetables, and fry them at night."

"Sister-in-law Man'er, I'm talking to my future sister-in-law." Tian Ningying wanted to be lazy.

"Don't try to be lazy, if you don't prepare the dishes well, you won't have anything to eat in the evening." Li Man pushed her to work, then came over and smiled at Yun Yan, "These two children have nothing to hide, don't take it for granted."

Yun Yan's expression froze, and she immediately smiled, "I know they are joking, how could I take it seriously."

"Eh." Li Man was slightly taken aback, knowing that Yunyan was sensitive, she might be overthinking.

But she didn't explain it either. After all, Yun Yan liked Li Yan in her heart. If she and Tian Ning'an were forced to make do together, it would be unfair to both her and Tian Ning'an.

Besides, Auntie doesn't seem to have much affection for Yunyan.

For the harmony of the family, Li Man disagrees with Yun Yan and Tian Ning'an.

Bringing a glass jar to put the juice in, Li Man cleaned up the fish and planned to fry some fish balls first.

Looking at it, Yun Yan seemed that only Tian Ningying needed help, so she silently sat beside her and helped pick vegetables together.

Tian Ningying winked at her and whispered, "Sister Yun, please think carefully about my proposal just now. After passing this village, there will be no such shop. My eldest brother is really a good person, although he is not as old as my second cousin. He looks good, but he knows how to live, and he can cook. Hehe, if you marry my eldest brother, you don’t need to learn how to cook. Just let him cook whatever you want to eat in the future.”

"Ying'er, don't talk nonsense." Yun Yan lowered her head and softly stopped her.

"I didn't talk nonsense." Tian Ningying suddenly thought that the elder brother asked her about Yunyan after having dinner that day, so she couldn't help laughing, "What if my elder brother likes you very much? Would you like to give him a chance? ?”

Yun Yan hurriedly shook her head, "Stop talking, I'm not good enough for your elder brother. In this life, I won't get married."

"Ah?" Tian Ningying was quite surprised when she heard this, "Why don't you get married?"

"Keep your voice down." Yun Yan hurriedly wanted to cover her mouth.

But the movement here still alarmed the other two.

Shangguan Xue was curious, "Who doesn't marry?"

Tian Ningying looked at Yunyan, "It's Sister Yun."

The knife in Li Man's hand froze, and she looked at Yun Yan in surprise. Did her words just now make her think too much, and that's why she got this idea in a fit of anger?

"Sister Yun, why don't you get married?" Shangguanxue threw down the fish head, ran over and asked worriedly.

Embarrassed by being looked at, Yun Yan hurriedly explained, "I was joking with Yinger, what are you guys— hurry up and go."

"No, Sister Yun, I feel that you are hiding something from us." Shangguan Xue said bluntly.

Indeed, Li Man felt the same way.

"What's the matter? Me?" Yun Yan pointed at herself with a guilty conscience.

Shangguan Xue nodded.

Even Tian Ningying said, "I feel that you are very different from when you were in Shennvgou last time."

Yun Yan was very embarrassed, "Why is it different? Why didn't I notice it."

"Sister Yun, if it's just because of my brother-in-law Li Yan, forget it, he only has my sister in his heart, the more you like him, the more you will be hurt." Shangguan Xue said.

Yunyan's expression changed, almost crying.

"Sister Yun, if you want to cry, you can cry, and after you cry, just give up." Shangguan Xue persuaded.

Yun Yan held her face in both hands, shaking her head constantly, "It's not him, it's my fault, it's me who doesn't deserve to live."

Seeing her like this, both Tian Ningying and Shangguanxue were stunned. They just like someone, so why don't they deserve to live?

Li Man winked at the two of them, signaling them to go out first.

The two were worried, but it was indeed the two of them who caused Yun Yan to cry like this, and she didn't dare to stay, so she had to go out first in doubt.

After the two of them left, Li Manfang took out the handkerchief and handed it to Yun Yan, "Cry as long as you cry, but don't say that you are not worthy of living. God made us live in this world for a reason. There is hope in life, and there is hope in death." Then there's nothing left."

Yun Yan took the veil, still covering her face, weeping, the tears soon wet the veil, but not only did not vent the emotions in her heart, but she became more and more sad as she cried more and more.

At this moment, Li Man felt that the sky in this woman's heart had already collapsed.

"Is it because of Li Yan?" She could hardly believe that a man could really ruin a woman like this? And this man is still his own, this kind of relationship is really complicated and tangled.

Yun Yan shook her head, raised her tearful eyes and looked at her, "It's really not him."

"Then why are you doing this?" Li Man didn't believe it.

Yun Yan sniffed and wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, then choked up and said, "I'm not a good woman."

"Why do you say that? Have you done anything outrageous?" Li Man asked suspiciously.

Yun Yan smiled miserably, "It's about the same."

"Ah?" Li Man seemed surprised, and asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"I killed someone." Yun Yan's eyes suddenly became cold and mocking, "Do you believe it? I killed someone before."

To be honest, Li Man couldn't believe that a weak woman like her could kill someone, but she

The look on her face at this time made her have to believe it.

"Who did you kill?" Li Man asked calmly.

Yun Yan's tears fell down again in a flash, and she folded her hands on her chest and began to cry again.

Cry pitifully.

Li Man watched quietly, then suddenly stretched out her arms and hugged her into her arms, "Okay, it's all over."

"No," Yun Yan threw herself into her arms, choked up, "I don't want to kill him, I really don't want to, but why would he do that to me? I hate him."

"Yunyan, what happened?" Li Man gently let her go, looked at her red and swollen eyes from crying, and asked seriously.

Yun Yan was stunned, slowly lowered her head, and finally told Li Man what had been suppressed in her heart for a long time and had been tormenting her.

It turned out that in the village where she lived, there was a man who was also her childhood sweetheart.

Back then, when Yunyan and her father came here in distress, they were rejected by the villagers for a long time, except for the boy.

The boy's family is also very poor, and only he and his mother depend on each other for life.

For this, Yunyan felt a sense of sympathy for each other, and the two children gradually got closer.

But Yunyan said that she always regarded the boy as her elder brother, never had other thoughts, and never paid attention to the boy's thoughts.

Until Li Yan appeared later, she fell in love with Li Yan, and even quarreled with the boy because of him.

Later she went to Li's house to find Li Yan.

Then Li Yan and Li Mo sent her home.

It was that trip back that completely changed her fate.

The boy showed unprecedented anger and unwillingness for her to run away from home to chase another man. On the night she came back, he found her smelling of alcohol.

He scolded her, even beat her, and in the end, even raped her.

Yunyan resisted desperately, and accidentally stabbed him to death with a hairpin, and also hurt her own face.

She was so frightened that she didn't have time to look at him and ran away overnight.

She didn't know where she went, she wandered all the way, and lived a life like a beggar, until one day she saw a notice that the emperor rehabilitated the Yun family, and then she begged all the way to the capital and returned to her home.

Life has finally settled down, but there is no shortage of fear in my heart.

Now she is very afraid of the night, as long as it gets dark, she will think of what happened that night, and think of the boy covered in blood asking for her life.

After finishing speaking, Yun Yan finally calmed down.

"I owe him my life, and I will have to pay it back sooner or later."

"It was he who used violence first, and you were just being too defensive." Li Man comforted, but no matter which girl encountered such a thing, it would be difficult for her to get over this hurdle.

Yun Yan shook her head, "I wanted to go back and plead guilty, but I couldn't bear it. I knew that Shangguan's family had been rehabilitated, and you would definitely come back. Sure enough, I saw you and Li Yan later. During that time, you went back Shennvgou, there are only Li Yan and his younger brother here. I would hide at the entrance of that alley every day, watching him go out with Li Hua, and go to the shop together. I looked at him from a distance, and suddenly I didn’t dare to confess. , I don't want to die. Woohoo."

Li Man patted her on the back lightly, listening to her helpless crying, but she didn't know how to comfort her. He will not let Li Mo take her home.

"Man'er, don't worry." After crying for a long time, Yunyan suddenly wiped her tears, looked at her firmly, and said, "I won't drag you down, I made a plan a long time ago, I want to go back and confess. I, Minger Just go back."

"Yunyan." Li Man held her back. The punishment in ancient times was very harsh, but regardless of self-defense, killing people will pay for their lives.

"Calm down, let us think about this matter again. I'll discuss it with my elder brother and the others."

"No." Yun Yan hurriedly said, she didn't want such a thing to be known by Li Yan, "Man'er, I will take responsibility for this matter, as for Brother Gui'er, I owe him a life after all, even if I have to pay for it, I deserve it .”

"cloud......"

"Don't try to persuade me." Yun Yan took a deep breath, made up her mind, and smiled at Li Man, "Man'er, after I told you, I feel much more at ease, really, thank you."

"Yunyan, I think it's better to find someone to check the situation first," Li Man said.

Yun Yan shook her head, "I've been evading for so long, and I don't want to drag others down. In fact, I wanted to admit my guilt a long time ago, but I never had the courage. I didn't know until these days when I was with you. I am alive. And I have been living in hell. Man'er, I want to get out of hell. Therefore, I have to be responsible for what I have done."

"Yunyan." Li Man didn't know how to persuade the girl.

Yun Yan held her hand and smiled softly, "Don't say anything, I accept my fate, if I really want to die, I will die innocently. I don't want to live in hell in my heart when I'm alive. Man'er, Just let me do it this time."
