Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 284 Poison (Second update)
Mulan stood in front of Zhiruo with obvious uneasiness. Although there was still a hint of awkward... conceitedness on her face, the expectation and nervousness in her eyes betrayed her.Even so, she still stood there calmly, no longer as impetuous as before.

Zhiruo nodded secretly: It seems that the rules have not been learned in vain, and Sister-in-law Ajuan's teaching has achieved some success.

"Sit down," Zhiruo said warmly, "I heard Ajuan say that you don't want to learn piano, chess, or painting? You are still young, there is no harm in learning more."

Mulan saw that Zhiruo's tone was gentle and she did not get angry and reprimand her. She slowly let go and became less nervous. She replied in a low voice: "Yes, big girl, I have thought about it. A girl from a small family like me, once she comes There is no use in learning those things. Secondly, you are slow to learn and cannot learn well. It is a waste of time. It is better to embroider more handkerchiefs in exchange for money. Big girl, I think the extra time will be used to learn embroidery and embroidery. From now on I also want to learn double-sided embroidery from Sister Xidi who is next to the second girl. She can now embroider simple single-color double-sided embroidery and said she can teach me in the future."

"Oh? You like embroidery very much?" Zhiruo asked. The little girl in front of her, who is dressed in green and has sparkling eyes, is also a smart and good girl as long as she can get rid of her original bad habits.Both Mu Song and Mulan have the same looks as their father. They are delicate and handsome, unlike Lu, who is naturally thick and dark. This is something Mulan should be extremely lucky about.

"Yes," Mulan nodded happily. She became happier and happier as she talked, and she was a little beaming. "Sister-in-law Ajuan and the others said that I have talent in learning embroidery. Every purse and handkerchief I make now can pass the test. I will spend more money." If you take some time to learn more complicated patterns, and then embroider more every month, you can get more monthly money."

"However," Mulan paused suddenly, as if she was afraid that Zhiruo might misunderstand her and only let her become a female student in the future, so she quickly added, "I still have to learn reading, writing, and arithmetic. And cooking skills, I I also want to continue learning for a while, it will be useful in the future." She doesn't like cooking that much, it should be enough to learn how to cook a table of specialty dishes, right?In the past, my grandmother always complained that women were not good at cooking, making the family uncomfortable to eat and embarrassing in front of guests.

Zhi Ruole said: Haha, this girl is quite realistic, she only chooses practical studies, not bad!

"Okay," Zhiruo agreed, "You are the one to learn something, so naturally you have to choose what you are interested in. In the future, if you have any requirements or ideas, as long as they are reasonable and not out of line, you can talk to me directly like this Say it, or talk to Sister-in-law Ajuan. Even if I disagree, I will tell you why I disagree and I won’t rebuke you casually."

Mulan blushed and nodded in agreement, looking at Zhiruo thoughtfully.Why does she feel that the eldest girl has changed?I don’t hate her anymore, and I am gentle and kind to her. She is not stingy, bad-tempered, and ignorant like what her mother and the ladies of the Yin family in Beijing said. They only care about money and are afraid of being taken advantage of. …

She didn't know much else, but during the time she was in Meizhuang, although she didn't treat her like a cousin girl who wore gold and silver and called slaves, her food, clothing and use were much better than at home.Sister-in-law Ajuan took good care of her and taught her the principles of life. Everyone else was also very kind to her. No one laughed at her because of what her mother did, or pointed at her like the neighbors and said, "Like mother." There must be a daughter.”

Uh, no, every time she goes back now, there seem to be fewer and fewer people pointing fingers. There are also many little sisters in the neighborhood who envy her for being literate and numeral. She even walks, talks and dresses more and more like those rich people. Miss.

If the eldest girl hadn't forced her to come to Meizhuang, it would be hard for her to be enviable like this, right?People will only laugh at her for having a wolf-hearted mother.

It wasn't until Mulan gracefully bowed and exited that Rudong exclaimed, "Mulan can really learn well. It's not like she's just pretending. Is this the bad bamboo that people say produces good bamboo shoots?" Zhiruo gave Rudong a funny look: "Keep it down! Don't talk nonsense! Don't let the child who has just understood a little bit get hit by you again. What is evil bamboo? How evil is Uncle Changsheng? Mu Song is also good. "A child under the age of 13 is still a primary school student in modern times. As long as he is willing to learn well and has the right guidance, everything can be done in time.

Without the family troublemaker Lu, the Liu family is getting better and better now.Since they don't have to worry about Mulan, Changsheng and his son put all their efforts into the snack restaurant. No, they recently bought the shop next door to Liu's snack shop and hired a woman to help wash vegetables and dishes in preparation for expanding the shop.Of course, the shop was still purchased in Zhihui’s name.

Hearing that the shop next door was to be transferred, Changsheng quickly gathered all the information and discussed with Uncle Qi. Zhihui would still buy it and lease it to him, and he would pay the rent.The father and son are getting more and more ambitious now, and it can be said that they are full of energy. Every time they come to Meizhuang, they are in high spirits, which makes Zhihui happy too, saying that the grandmother and aunt who are under the influence of Jiuquan can smile.

Zhiruo was talking to Rudong about Liu's snack restaurant, and Zisu asked to see him.

Seeing Zisu open the wooden box in his hand, there were five or six small porcelain bottles inside. Zhiruo joked: "Zisu, have you started studying seasonings too?"

She is a master who loves good food. She has opened a snack shop and a fine wine shop, and she often talks about opening a restaurant in the future. In addition, the most delicious Mr. Su Kang lives in Meizhuang. Nowadays, the entire Meizhuang is full of food enthusiasts. Maid While the servants and wives are doing their jobs, many of them have a hobby of researching new products.Some people are studying pancake techniques, some are concentrating on pickles, and some are just trying to make Mr. Su’s “No. [-] Braised Pork in Meizhuang”...

And those people in the cake workshop put great effort into extending the dim sum recipes given by Zhi Ruo into various styles, with endless varieties and flavors. Zhi Ruo was so impressed by their ingenuity that he probably won’t be able to make dim sum in ten years. Cut off new styles.

Now looking at these small mini porcelain bottles in front of him, Zhiruo felt that he must have realized the truth. Are such delicate containers suitable for holding condiments?
Moreover, Zisu is a very quiet woman with long, fair and dexterous hands. Apart from embroidery, well, she feels that if she must study any cooking skills, the only way is to prepare seasonings.A good friend of hers who studied biochemistry in modern times had a pair of hands like this. He once took a photo of various long and short test tubes and glass bottles in the laboratory. A pair of beautiful hands shuttled among them, giving people a sense of wonder. An incredible beauty, no less than a pianist's hand.

Zisu was stunned, shook his head and said: "No, these are poisons."
