Chapter 15

"Why don't you care about my business? Why don't you care about my business?" Mrs. Zheng screamed again and again, "You are the daughter-in-law of our Zheng family, and the money you earn should belong to our Zheng family! Now you leave this method to your natal family Man, what do you mean? I don’t care about it now, you tell her to stop with your mother, and you go to the pier to sell soup every day in the future!"

Xu Xiaofu sneered twice, "Mother, if you want to sell soup, you can go by yourself." After finishing speaking, he ignored the old lady who was messing around and turned back to the room.

Mrs. Zheng was in a hurry, thinking that the vain money was going to Xu Xiaofu's mother's house, she felt distressed, so she stopped in front of Xu Xiaofu in three steps, "If you don't speak clearly today, you are not allowed to leave, what do you say?" As the daughter-in-law of the Zheng family, how can you steal all the money from your natal family? I don't care, if you don't agree today, I... I will divorce you!"

"You can rest if you like, I can't wait!" Xu Xiaofu gave Mrs. Zheng a cold look.

Mrs. Zheng stared blankly at Xu Xiaofu who turned back to the room, and after a while, she jumped up and said: "You are really an old lady who dare not let Da Lang divorce you, do you?"

Hearing this, Xu Xiaofu turned around abruptly, looked at Mrs. Zheng with a half-smile, "Really? Mom, then hurry up, I wish Shiwen could divorce me quickly." Now that she had figured it out, she was divorced Just get divorced, it's best to leave the Zheng family.

"Okay, okay, then you wait for my old lady..." Mrs. Zheng's hands and feet began to tremble angrily.Xu Xiaofu ignored her, turned around and went back to the room, she knew that if her guess was right, Zheng Shiwen would come to her later and tell her about Wang's selling soup.

Sure enough, within half an hour, Zheng Shihua pushed open the door of Xu Xiaofu's room.

"Xiaofu, I heard from my mother today that there is a matter of selling soup at the wharf. You can go back and tell your mother about it tomorrow. She stopped the business, and then you take over the business. Now you are Zheng Zheng after all. You should be thinking of the Zheng family, that's why my mother is so angry. Don't take it seriously if you divorce, she's just talking, she won't divorce you as a husband. "

Xu Xiaofu snorted in his heart, but his face remained calm, "Master, what did you say that Xiaofu doesn't understand, I just gave advice on the business, and my mother took care of everything else, how could I Let her stop? This is unreasonable. As for the mother who wants to sell soup, she can go, and the mother can rest if she wants to. Now I also want to understand that I am so virtuous in the Zheng family and take care of the Zheng family. Young and old, in exchange for such a result, it is better to simply divorce me, and let go of my reputation..."

Zheng Shiwen obviously didn't expect Xu Xiaofu to say that, frowned, stepped forward a few steps to Xu Xiaofu, stretched out his hand to hold her shoulder, but Xu Xiaofu took two steps back, his hand stopped in embarrassment. In mid-air, he said angrily, "Xu Xiaofu, what do you mean, do you really think I dare not divorce you?"

Xu Xiaofu said coldly: "Then I will wait for my husband's divorce letter, Mr. Xianggong, I am going to rest, please go back to the room, I will leave Zheng's house immediately after I finish the divorce letter."

Zheng Shiwen said angrily: "Hmph, want to leave the Zheng family? I tell you, don't even think about it. You are born as a member of our Zheng family and will die as a ghost of our Zheng family. Just serve our Zheng family well for the rest of your life!" With that said, he flung his sleeves and left.

Xu Xiaofu looked straight at Zheng Shiwen's leaving back, and frowned.Secretly thought, it seems that leaving Zheng Kai is quite troublesome, no matter what, Zheng Shiwen has to open the mouth, if Zheng Shiwen doesn't want to divorce her or make peace with her, she can only stay in Zheng's house for the rest of her life.Hey, this ancient woman is really too passive.

Probably because she knew that Xu Xiaofu really wanted to leave the Zheng family, Mrs. Zheng kept her mouth shut about the soup, but the next day she got a few mussels from somewhere and threw them in the wooden basin in the kitchen, and said to Xu Xiaofu: : "Hmph, clean up the clam meat tonight, and make some clam meat and tofu."

Xu Xiaofu lowered his head and said: "Mother, I can't clean this thing well, it smells bad. The soup my mother sells is my mother's own handicraft, I didn't learn it."

Mrs. Zheng naturally didn't believe it, "I don't care, you have to clean up the clam meat tonight!"

Xu Xiaofu stopped talking and started to clean up the mussels.Mrs. Zheng glanced at her triumphantly, hum, see what you have to argue with after cooking this soup!
Before dinner was served at night, Liu's stomach was hungry, so he went to the kitchen first, and saw the clam meat and tofu in the soup bowl, not only swallowed his saliva, but also took a bowl and started to drink.Unexpectedly, he spit it out after taking a sip, frowned and said to Xu Xiaofu: "What did you cook? Why is it so bad, is it for people to drink?"

Xu Xiaofu didn't even look at her, and continued to stir-fry the vegetables in the pot, saying: "Clam meat has a strong fishy smell, mother insisted on me making it, and it will naturally taste like this, if it doesn't taste good, I can't blame it .”

When Mrs. Liu heard this, she ran to Mrs. Zheng angrily.

Knowing that Liu Shi is pregnant with the grandson of Zheng's family, Xu Xiaofu naturally has nothing to worry about. Every time something happens, he goes to Mrs. Zheng to make a fuss, probably because he wants to get back the embarrassment he suffered with Mrs. Zheng before.

As a result, Mrs. Zheng came to find Xu Xiaofu angrily, but no matter what she said, Xu Xiaofu ignored her.Mrs. Zheng only felt that she was hit on the soft cotton, and she couldn't let out her anger.He wanted to do it but was afraid that Xu Xiaofu would drop him.

In the next few days, Mrs. Zheng still didn't give up, she bought a few big bones and started tinkering. It seemed that she also wanted to set up a small stall at the pier to buy soup.

Xu Xiaofu ignored her, and went back to his room after finishing his daily work in the kitchen.She seldom goes to Xu's house these days.

After a few days like this, it started to snow again, and it seemed that the Chinese New Year would be in half a month, and every household was busy preparing for the New Year.The Zheng family's New Year's goods are all prepared by Nianshi.

In such a flash, another half month has passed, and the snow has not stopped, and it is still falling every day.

Xu Xiaofu looked at the heavy snow outside and had a bad feeling in his heart.

The Zheng family prepared a lot of dishes for the Chinese New Year. On New Year's Eve, Xu Xiaofu worked all morning and prepared a table full of meals, steamed meat, steamed fish, fried sweet potato balls, meatballs, lotus root clips, mung beans Meatballs, fried fish nuggets, and several hot dishes, stewed chicken with mushrooms, braised pork, stir-fried fatty intestines, vinegared cabbage, radish rib soup, and steamed a pot of white flour steamed buns.

After finishing the meal, they called the Zheng family, and when the dishes were served and everyone sat down, Xu Xiaofu sat down with the lotus.Mrs. Zheng immediately changed her face, and said angrily, "What are you doing, who put you on the table!"

In the past, during Chinese New Year, Xu Xiaofu would bring lotus flowers to eat in the kitchen. Mrs. Zheng did not expect that Xu Xiaofu would dare to sit at the table this year.

Xu Xiaofu said with a smile: "Mother, this year's Chinese New Year, of course it's a New Year's meal."

Mrs. Zheng stared, "Who asked you to come to the table for the New Year's dinner!"

Nian raised his head and glanced at Mrs. Zheng, and said, "Mother, this year's New Year's Eve, my sister-in-law has been busy all morning, so why not come and have a New Year's dinner with us? Alright, let's eat quickly."

As expected, Mrs. Zheng kept her mouth shut obediently, but she still gave Xu Xiaofu a reluctant look.

At the dinner table, Xu Xiaofu kept adding vegetables to the lotus.The lotus is poor. In the past, they ate with her in the kitchen during Chinese New Year, and they ate only vegetarian dishes. They would not give them meat at all.Now that he could have a good meal, Xu Xiaofu tried his best to add vegetables to the lotus.

On the first day of the new year, relatives began to go away, and Xu Xiaofu returned to Xu's house with lotus flowers.

The wind and snow on the road were still so heavy that people who were blowing could hardly keep their eyes open.When they came to Xu's house, the whole family of Xu's family stayed at home and did not go out.

Seeing Xu Xiaofu, Mrs. Wang hurriedly pulled her into the house, took a sweat towel for her and patted the snow off her body, and said, "Why did it come under such a heavy snowfall?"

Xu Xiaofu patted the snow off his body, and patted the lotus, and then smiled at Mrs. Wang: "This year's first day of the new year, of course I want to come back to see you. In the past, my mother-in-law was so strict that I didn't care about you." I can come back to see you during the Chinese New Year..."

When Wang heard this, her eyes turned red.

Xu Xiaofu hurriedly said: "Okay, mother, you are not allowed to cry this New Year's Eve. By the way, how is Xiao Fei? I haven't seen him for more than a month." Just as he was asking, the cloth of the house The curtain was lifted, and a handsome young man walked in, and said to Xu Xiaofu, "Third Sister!"

Xu Xiaofu's eyes showed surprise, "Xiaofei, are you feeling better?"

Xu Qingfei nodded, and said with a smile: "Sister, it's better to use the folk prescription you gave me. It's been almost two months since I took it, and my body is almost recovered."

Xu Xiaofu said with a smile: "You should also pay attention when your body is well. You can't joke about your illness. Feeling good now doesn't mean your body is completely healed. You just need to continue to eat the diet in the future."

Wang also said: "No, I haven't stopped the diet prescription you gave me, and I'm still eating it." Wang looked at the white land outside as he spoke, and said worriedly: "This year's heavy snow will It's so weird, it's been falling for a long time and it hasn't stopped, the snow outside can reach knees..."

Xu Xiaofu's heart moved, and he asked: "Mother, do you have any food at home?"

"Where will there be food reserves?" Wang said, "The family has always eaten as much food as they bought. In the past, they could only rely on your second brother's money from hunting for food every month, and sometimes they couldn't eat enough. Now Go to the pier and sell some soup so that you can have a full meal every month."

Xu Xiaofu asked again, "Mother, how much cash do you have at home?"

Although Mrs. Wang was surprised by Xu Xiaofu's question, she didn't hide anything, "Thanks to you for the past two months, I have received three or four taels of silver every month. Except for the money that Xiao Fei needs every month, I still have money now. There are six taels of silver."
