Chapter 74

Bai Yihong and his wife discussed rushing to build the house before the busy autumn season. By then, it was estimated that Bai Ruozhu would have a baby and be in confinement, so that the mess at home would not affect her confinement.

We invited people to build a house, so we had to treat them to dinner on the first day. Since we only built one room, the Bai family didn't invite many people to help, so they only set two tables.

Although the second room was separated, as the head of the Bai family, the old man had to be invited to the house for dinner. So the day before the dinner, Bai Yihong went to tell the old man in advance. Unexpectedly, the next day, he came It was not just the old man, but also Bai Yibo and his wife.

Bai Ruozhu's family looked at each other. It was obvious that everyone did not welcome Bai Yibo and Wang, but looking at the old man's face, no one showed their emotions on their faces.

On the contrary, Bai Ruozhu was a little surprised that the old lady didn't come. She glanced at the old man quietly, wondering if he had figured it out or was he afraid that the old lady would come out again and embarrass him?
In front of the old man, Mrs. Wang came over and took Lin Ping'er's arm enthusiastically, saying, "Sister-in-law, let me give you a hand. If you need to wash and rinse, just give me instructions."

Lin Ping'er felt a little tired, but she resisted moving her arms and said with a smile: "It's going to be really hard today, sister-in-law."

Bai Ruozhu was very disdainful of Wang's pretentiousness. She handed a wooden basin to Wang and said with a smile: "That's great. My mother and I are worried about being too busy. It's great to have my aunt to help. My mother wants to kill the chicken and I’m stewing the meat, so I’ll ask my aunt to kill and clean the fish.”

Mrs. Wang's outfit today is full of bright clothes. Even if they are not new clothes, they are [-]% to [-]% new. The materials are not bad, and there is an air of respectability everywhere. It is obvious that she is not here to work. Farmers don't know how to wear them if they really want to work. It's so good, so you don't ruin your clothes.

Sure enough, Ms. Wang frowned. The fish was very big, and it looked fresh at first glance. It didn't have much fishy smell. But when she thought of killing the fish and getting blood and fish scales on her hands, Ms. Wang was very reluctant. She hurriedly went to the fish. Bai Yibo took a look, but the old man caught his eye.

The old man frowned and his face darkened, "My dear, please be smarter. Today's treat is not just the second family's business. Don't neglect the guests. It will be a disgrace to our Bai family."

Mrs. Wang held the wooden basin and said wiltedly: "Yes, I understand."

Bai Ruozhu saw that Wang was exhausted and happily returned to the kitchen to continue working.

For today’s banquet, the whole family started preparing most of the ingredients early in the morning. Bai Ruozhu is good at cooking, so she only needs to be responsible for stir-frying and cooking. Even the cutting of vegetables is done by her mother. She has the final say on how to cut them. .

But it’s not good to kill chickens and fish in advance. The weather is still hot and hot now, so it won’t be fresh if you kill it early.

Bai Ruozhu continued to take care of the stew in the pot. She was now heavy and had to support her lower back even if she stood for a while, otherwise it would be too strenuous.

Lin Ping'er finished cooking the chicken and returned to the kitchen. She saw her daughter blinking at her and whispering, "Mom, I'll let my uncle help light the fire later."

Lin Ping'er snorted, "Can she cook on the fire? If you can't control the fire, you can't even cook."

Bai Ruozhu curled her lips. She really looked up to Wang. She couldn't even light a fire. How did Wang get married into the Bai family?Isn’t it too carefree?

When Wang came back from killing the fish, Bai Ruozhu probably made some guesses.This Wang family is either too stupid, or too evil-minded, and is causing mischief behind the scenes.For example, Lin Ping'er said that if you can't control the fire when cooking, it's easy for people cooking to cook. So in the end, she had to leave it alone.But now the fish is killed, but the fish head is chopped off like wood, and the fish scales are not scraped off. The most terrible thing is that Wang has broken the gall, and the fish will be so bitter that it will not taste good. .

Bai Ruozhu took a deep breath. Fortunately, she didn't ask Ya to kill the chicken. Chickens cost money, but she had plenty of fish.

She really wanted to make this fish, and then when everyone eats it, they will find that the gall is broken and the taste is no longer good.Then I thought about how Wang killed the fish like this.But then she thought about it, there was no point in embarrassing herself for someone like Wang.

In the eyes of outsiders, this meal was invited by the second roommate of the Bai family, and it was the second roommate who had a good meal.

Thinking of this, Bai Ruozhu sent Mrs. Wang to help wash the dishes at the well, and then asked her mother to greet the guests who had already entered. She slipped into the space while no one was around and took advantage of the fish that Mrs. Wang had ruined. He threw it in, and then took out another one of about the same size from the pond.

She moved very quickly, but she was also nervous about eating. After all, the kitchen door was open, and she was afraid that someone would come in in the blink of an eye, and she would not be able to explain it. Fortunately, everything went smoothly.

She quickly killed the fish, then quickly threw the fish scales and internal organs into the space. Before Wang came in, she lightly fried the fish in the oil pan, and then burned it.

Not long after, Bai Ruozhu heard the sound of broken dishes. She looked over and saw that it was really coming from the direction where Wang was washing the dishes.

Well, if you meet someone like this who is not afraid of embarrassment and treats you like a monster, you'd better not be like her.

At this time, the guests had already come in. When they heard the sound of breaking bowls, they couldn't help but look over curiously.In farmers' households, dishes and dishes are also valuable things, and everyone cherishes them.

Mr. Bai's face was downcast. He didn't want to reprimand his eldest daughter-in-law in front of outsiders. He just glared at her and saw Wang's innocent face, as if she really didn't mean it, she was just clumsy.

Bai Ruozhu walked out of the kitchen and said with a look of shame: "Ah, auntie, are you not hurt? It's all my fault for being ignorant. I asked you to help wash the dishes. You go and have a rest. Don't get caught."

In fact, the dishes Wang went to wash were just some bowls that had been used to hold chopped ingredients. They were just stained with some raw vegetable residues, as they were afraid that they would not look good if they were filled with cooked vegetables.It's hard to wash this kind of oily bowl that doesn't look like it has been eaten. Just rinse it with water and it will be fine.

The bowl was neither oily nor slippery, so why did Mr. Wang let it go?
Lin Ping'er gritted her teeth. She still felt pain after the broken plate. She went over and helped Wang to one side and said, "Sister-in-law, please rest quickly. Don't get your clothes dirty."

As soon as he said this, the guests couldn't help but look at Mrs. Wang. Isn't this Bai family's grand-in-law here to help?Does she want to be a guest?The guests who stayed at the house were all male guests, but there was no reason why she should also attend the table, right?
Wang's face turned pale and red, and she deliberately looked aggrieved and said, "Second brother and sister, please don't blame me for being clumsy and not helping. You won't be angry with me, right?"

Bai Ruozhu rolled his eyes, I bet you want to play house fighting?We farmers are not as smart as you. She shouted to her mother, "Mom, come and help me light the fire. I'm going to start cooking."
