Chapter 498 Happy Family of Three

In the large kitchen, there were four large pots, and several women with big arms and round waists were frying caramelized melon seeds with shovels.

In the open space outside the kitchen, a group of people sat in a circle, with a pile of raw melon seeds as high as a hill in the middle. Their task was to pick out the deflated and bad melon seeds inside.

Among such a group of people, Xiao Chen is the most abrupt existence.

Xiao Jing was captured by Li Mingyue, and Xiao Chen, the darling madman, pursued the tenet: wherever his son is, he will be there.

But he is a big man, sitting and working with the girls is always not good.

As a last resort, Li Mingyue created a small circle for the father and son alone, letting them work separately.Then, Wu Yunwan also moved a small bench and joined their circle.

The three of them sat together, carefully picking the melon seeds, and Wu Yunwan chattered non-stop. In order to please Xiaojing, she racked her brains to tell him fairy tales. Subdue the son.

Xiao Jing doesn't reject her either, one big and one small talk and laugh, while Xiao Chen implements the principle that silence is golden and concentrates on being a quiet and handsome man.

However, the smile on his lips betrayed him.

Looking at it this way, the three of them looked like a happy family of three.

A group of people were busy busy, when a little girl raised her head inadvertently, just in time to see Cheng Mulian strolling towards her, she quickly raised her arm, poked another little girl next to her, and whispered: "Hey, Chun Ni, look, isn't that the young mistress? Didn't she go back to her mother's house, why did she come back again?"

There are only a few masters in the Li family, and the constraints on the servants are not strict, so the news that Cheng Mulian quietly returned to her mother's house early in the morning has already spread throughout the family, even the old man Zhao who is in charge of the cattle shed knows.

Chunni glanced up quietly, and whispered back to her, "What's wrong with her coming back? If she doesn't come back, she would be a fool."

The maids began to discuss in a low voice, Li Mingyue vaguely heard the words "Eldest Young Mistress", and was about to look up when she heard Cheng Mulian's voice.

"Mom, I'm back."

All of a sudden, everyone raised their heads and looked at Cheng Mulian.

Cheng Mulian was panicked, extremely nervous, cold sweat broke out on her back, and the scrutinizing eyes of the little maids made her feel like a light was on her back, making her feel uncomfortable.

Li Mingyue looked at Liu Shi, fearing that she would twist again and embarrass Cheng Mulian in front of so many people... If this is the case, the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will become serious.

Fortunately, Mrs. Liu seemed to have really listened to her words, and was much kinder to Cheng Mulian.

She raised her head, looked at Cheng Mulian, and said with a pleasant smile, "Alian is back, is your mother's house okay? What are you doing standing there, come and sit down."

"Du Juan, go and get a grass mound for young mistress."

Du Juan went away in response, and soon came back with a grass mound, and put it on the open space beside Mrs. Liu.

The little maids all fell silent, looking at the movement here from the corner of their eyes.

Li Mingyue coughed in displeasure, raised her eyes to scan around, and said in a deep voice, "Work hard."

The little maids immediately lowered their heads and concentrated on picking melon seeds. No one knew that this second lady was the real master of the Li family. Offending her would not be fruitful.

Cheng Mulian gave Li Mingyue a grateful look, and then obediently walked to Liu's side.
