Reincarnate as a poor widow and bravely fight against the worst scumbag father and evil mother-in-la

Jiang Yuwei nodded and said:

"I made it. May I ask Mr. Xu if there is anything wrong with the food?"

At this time, Mrs. Li outside the door saw that her own master had begun to question Jiang Yuwei, so she could not stay still any longer and rushed out of the door, pointing at Jiang Yuwei and said:

"Master, this person has ulterior motives. She is trying to fool you with things that we farmers don't even eat. Crayfish is something that everyone avoids in paddy fields. And that dish, I dare not even say it, she, she made it with offal, I saw it in the kitchen!"

Seeing Mrs. Li pointing at the dish of Maoxuewang and speaking indignantly, Sun Zhaodi could no longer bear it and rushed out of the door, saying anxiously:

"Master, Madam, I was beside Jiang Yuwei when she was cooking that dish. I saw that she washed the vegetables thoroughly before cooking. It was not like what Mrs. Li said."

Mr. Xu looked at his wife, then looked at Mrs. Li and Sun Zhaodi standing in the hall and said:

"Who told you to come to the front yard? Have you finished the work in the back yard? I have a distinguished guest here today, so I will let you go this time. Go back to the back yard quickly."

Seeing this, Mrs. Li was afraid that Mr. Xu would leave Jiang Yuwei behind and said anxiously:

"Master, I am a loyal servant of the mansion. I was really worried when a village woman suddenly came to our kitchen to cook. So I kept watching her while she was cooking. I saw that she put a lot of salt in the lobster!"

After hearing what Mrs. Li said, Jiang Yuwei immediately turned around and glared at her. Wasn't Mrs. Li lying with her eyes open? She clearly forgot to add salt because she was in a hurry, so why did Mrs. Li say that she added a lot of salt?

When Mrs. Li was glared at by Jiang Yuwei, she was immediately frightened and trembled. She turned her head away timidly and didn't look at her.

Madam Xu frowned and said:

"But the spicy crayfish tastes just right to me."

After hearing what her wife said, Sun Zhaodi looked at Mrs. Li with amusement.

Jiang Yuwei also reacted at this time. It must be that Mrs. Li was afraid that she would steal her son's job, so she deliberately added a lot of salt to the crayfish. Unexpectedly, it backfired and helped her. She thought that Mr. Xu was angry because she forgot to add salt.

Seeing that Mrs. Li looked embarrassed, Jiang Yuwei bowed to Mr. Xu and said:

"I am really overestimating my abilities by coming to your house to cook today. I just found out that there is a great chef in the Xu Mansion after I came here. My cooking skills are just a humiliation in front of him. I wonder if you can get used to the taste of this meal?"

The second young master, who was still eating an eggplant box, waved his hand and said:

"Hey, hey, that's wrong. I think the food you cook is much better than Li Hu's. Why don't you come to work for us?"

When Mrs. Li heard what the second young master said, her face turned red with anxiety. She wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to speak rashly.

Mr. Xu nodded and said:

"Second Young Master is right. The food you cook is very unique and delicious. Many of them are things we have never eaten before. I called you here today to ask if you are willing to stay in our house as a cook?"

Seeing this, Mrs. Li waved her hands hastily and said:

"No, no, sir, how can this village woman be worthy of our Xu Mansion? Besides, we don't know her background, how can we rashly let her stay in the mansion? Absolutely not, madam, you have to persuade the master!"

Mrs. Xu frowned when she saw that Mrs. Li dared to lose her composure in front of the guests.

"That's enough, Mrs. Li! What's wrong with you today? How can a servant like you question the master's decision?"

Jiang Yuwei was really troubled by this. She just wanted to earn some hard-earned money, but how did she get involved in this? When she thought of Ning Huaizhi and Ning Wan who were still waiting for her outside, she wanted to take the money and leave quickly, so she stepped forward, saluted and said:

"Mr. Xu, Madam Xu, thank you for your kindness, but I have patients and children to take care of at home. I see that you already have a chef in your house, so you will not need me as your assistant."

When Xu Yuanwai heard Jiang Yuwei say this, he sighed with some regret and said:

"I was hoping to eat these rare things every day, but now that you say so, I can't force it. Manager Zhang, give her two taels of silver and send her out of the mansion."

Mrs. Li originally thought that Jiang Yuwei was sensible and knew that she was not worthy of staying in the Xu Mansion, and she was secretly rejoicing. However, when she heard that the master was going to give Jiang Yuwei two taels of silver, she immediately felt unbalanced. Her son worked hard for a month and could only get one tael of silver, but Jiang Yuwei only came to cook a meal, and the master actually gave her two taels of silver.

As Mrs. Li thought about it, she glared at Jiang Yuwei fiercely, pouted her lips and was about to go out reluctantly.

Mrs. Xu, who was standing by, said coldly:

"Mrs. Li, you really behaved unbecomingly today. Go to Manager Zhang to receive your punishment later."

Manager Zhang handed the silver to Jiang Yuwei. Jiang Yuwei took the silver and nodded and smiled at Manager Zhang. Then she said goodbye to Mr. Xu and Madam Xu and left the house with the servant. She didn't want to stay in this place of trouble anymore and didn't want to have anything to do with anyone like Li Po's descendants and Zhao Di.

As soon as Jiang Yuwei left the house, she saw Ning Huaizhi and Ning Wan waiting at the door with eager eyes. When Ning Wan saw that her mother finally came out, she jumped off the ox cart and ran to Jiang Yuwei's arms. Jiang Yuwei picked up Ning Wan and rubbed her face on her head. Sure enough, a child can cure all fatigue.

Ning Huaizhi looked at Jiang Yuwei and said distressedly:

"Thank you for your hard work, my wife. You must be exhausted."

Jiang Yuwei shook her head and smiled:

"It's okay, let's go pick up Ning Zhao quickly, he must be waiting anxiously."

After saying that, Jiang Yuwei carried Ning Wan onto the ox cart. Sitting on her own ox cart, she felt completely relaxed.

As expected, the intrigues in the mansion were not something he could handle. He was lucky to be able to escape from Xu's house today. Besides, that old lady Li was stupid and couldn't hide things. If it was another powerful character, he would be in trouble as well.

Jiang Yuwei thought about it and shook her head. As expected, she should forget about the mobile banquet. She really couldn't adapt to the intrigues in the big house. It would be enough for her to stay quietly in her own yard and set up a stall to make a little money.

As Jiang Yuwei was thinking, the ox cart had already arrived at the entrance of the academy. Today was the ten-day holiday, and the entrance of the academy was crowded with many family members and servants who came to pick up the scholars. Jiang Yuwei saw Ning Zhao standing at the entrance looking around, as if looking for someone, so she raised her hand and shouted:

"Zhao'er, come here!"

Ning Wan also saw Ning Zhao from afar, and happily jumped off the ox cart to pick up Ning Zhao. However, Ning Wan had only run a few steps when she was startled by a carriage rushing out in the street, and she stood in the middle of the road, not daring to move.

Ning Huaizhi, who was sitting on an ox cart, heard the neighing of a carriage. Turning back, he saw a young man driving a carriage towards Ning Wan. He immediately frowned and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
