Once you become a boy, marry a good man, and become rich together

Chapter 3 Let me cook, I won’t make you poor!

"Hey, Xiaobao, where have you been playing? You're sweating all over. Take a break. We'll eat soon."

Chen said this with a smile on her face.

Her eyes were warm and the corners of her mouth were raised. She looked like a good mother to her son.

While Chen was out, Jiang Ci immediately grabbed two handfuls of polished rice and put them in the pot, and then added a few handfuls of brown rice. There was not much polished rice in the bag to begin with.

I added another spoonful of oil to the frying pan. I don’t care whether the food tastes good or not. It will definitely not taste good without oil.

Judging from the amount he just put in, if Chen saw it, she would scold him to death.

When Jiang Ci was scooping water, he saw his reflection in the water and realized that he had been here for a long time but had not yet seen what he looked like now.

Jiang Ci put down the scoop, put her face into the water tank and took a closer look.

He came to a conclusion that he looked quite similar to his original appearance, but was nowhere near as tall as his original body.

There is a small red mole between my eyebrows. It is a pregnancy mole, but the color is not very dark.

This is actually a good thing for Jiang Ci. After all, he has not yet adapted to the fact that his brother can have children.

This face is a little too thin, almost unrecognizable. The small face the size of a palm makes the eyes look even bigger. The only pretty thing on the whole face is the two round almond-shaped eyes.

Speaking of the word "getting married", Jiang Ci still couldn't associate this word with herself, but the fact was that Jiang Ci was a boy, already 16 years old, and it was time for her to get married.

He had never been in a relationship before and didn't know his sexual orientation. Now that he's better, he has no choice but to date a man and live with him.

But in this case, he has to find someone he likes and gets along with. It would definitely not be a good thing to let his "good aunt" arrange a marriage for him. She will squeeze out the last value of "Jiangci".

Jiang Ci's thoughts were in a mess. She stopped thinking about it and ate. She was so hungry that her stomach was sticking to her back.

Chen couldn't help scolding him. She was scolding him while putting food into her mouth and couldn't stop her mouth.

Chen was just afraid that the food would be too oily and he would eat one more bite.

There was also Jiang Xiaoru's gaze that was fixed on him without blinking. Jiang Xiaoru was the eldest child in his uncle's family and also a brother.

In the past few years, he has been treating the original owner like a servant.

When the original owner's parents were still alive, Jiang's father and mother would buy him candy and cakes from the town from time to time.

Jiang's mother is an embroiderer, and her skills in making clothes are second to none in the surrounding villages.

The original owner often had beautiful clothes to wear, and at that time "Jiang Ci" was the envy of all the children in the village.

Jiang Xiaoru has always been jealous of the original owner. Not only was she jealous that he had parents who loved him, she was also jealous of his good looks. Whenever she saw the original owner, she would think of ways to bully him.

When the original owner arrived at his uncle's house, Jiang Xiaoru pushed all his work onto the original owner.

He went out this morning, so the job of washing the pots and dishes after breakfast fell on Jiang Xiaoru.

I'm killing him with my eyes.

However, Jiang Ci ignored him and just kept eating quickly.

Everyone at the table ate voraciously, and soon the dish was almost finished.

"Mom, the food today is really delicious. I want to eat more. You are not allowed to eat the rest. They are all mine."

Jiang Jiabao shouted at others with the scoundrel look of a naughty child.

It was delicious. Normally, when the original owner cooked, Chen would not allow her to use even a drop of oil.

He directly put a spoonful of oil, and the spoon was not very big. This body had not eaten meat for so long, but it did not feel greasy at all.

Of course it was delicious for the villagers who rarely had meat in that era.

After dinner, Jiang Ci ran out. He didn't want to wash dishes and clothes for his family.

I ran some distance away from the door, but could still hear the family's voices. They were definitely not saying anything good.

Jiang Ci hung out outside for the entire afternoon, got acquainted with a few kids, and asked about the situation nearby.

Although he had the memory of "Jiang Ci", Jiang Ci had not left the village for the past four years. Not to mention the town, he couldn't even recognize all the people in the village.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Jiang Ci walked back home from the foot of the mountain.

Ahead of the road is the afterglow of the sunset, the sunset glow, the flying birds, the houses, and the paths. It is really a beautiful picture of the sunset in the fields.

Jiang Ci spat out the grass in his mouth and sneered at himself in his heart. He couldn't even eat enough, but he was still in a good mood.

When he got home, he went straight into his thatched hut. The villagers would finish their meals and clean the pots before dark, and they were reluctant to use kerosene lamps and candles.

Jiang Ci lay on the bed and couldn't fall asleep. Suddenly, she remembered that the original owner had hidden something in this room.

Jiang Ci got out of bed quickly and followed her memory to find the place where she had hidden the thing. It was quite hidden. She dug a hole under the brick of the bed leg and put the box in it.

Jiang Ci moved the bricks away and took the box up, wrapping it tightly with cloth.

Jiang Ci wiped off the dirt on the surface and opened the cloth, revealing a small and exquisite mahogany dressing box. It was very delicate and beautiful, and looked quite valuable. This was one of the reasons why "Jiang Ci" wanted to hide it.

Opening the dressing box, there are several small wooden carved toys inside. They are lifelike and seem to have their own life.

It can also be seen the care of the sculptor and the love he put into "Xiaojiang porcelain".

A small wooden bird, with its wings slightly spread, seems ready to fly at any time, and the texture of its feathers is clearly visible.

A little wooden rabbit with round and bright eyes, as if waiting for its owner to come and play with it.

The little toys inside were all very cute, and Jiang Ci especially couldn't let go of the little wooden rabbit.

Jiang Ci took out these wood carvings and found there was another layer underneath. When he opened it, he saw a jade hairpin.

Jiang Ci took the jade hairpin in her hand and placed it under a ray of moonlight that came through the crack in the wall.

The villagers who were well-off bought silver hairpins to show off, and some even bought gold hairpins. Those who bought jade hairpins were unheard of in the poor memory of "Jiang porcelain".

First, gold and silver are hard currencies; second, jade is fragile and it is inconvenient for the villagers to wear it because they have to work; third, the villagers cannot identify the quality of jade.

Jiang Ci racked her brains to think about the origin of the jade hairpin, and finally remembered from the depths of her memory that when Jiang's mother was young, she worked for a wealthy family and the hairpin was given to her by the master.

When "Jiang Ci" was still young, he found it while playing with things on Jiang's mother's dressing table.

"Little Jiang Ci" had never seen such a beautiful thing, so he played with the jade hairpin. Jiang's mother was afraid that he would drop the hairpin and break it.

Then she coaxed "Little Jiangci" and said, "Aci is still young now, so give the hairpin to mother for safekeeping. When you grow up, mother will give the hairpin to us, Aci."

Jiang Ci put the jade hairpin back into the jewelry box, and thought that if he took the jewelry box away one day in the near future, Chen would find out and he would be scolded.

It is not very safe to put the hosta alone in there, for fear that it might get bumped.

Jiang Ci found a piece of clean cloth in the basket at the head of the bed. Upon closer inspection, she discovered that it was a handkerchief that had been washed so much that it turned white, with an orchid embroidered on it.

Jiang Ci wrapped the jade hairpin with the handkerchief and prepared to put it in the jewelry box.

"You bastard, come out and I know you have bad intentions. I think you are the one who destroyed that piece of land."

Chen knocked on the door and shouted loudly.

The noise scared Jiang Ci so much that she immediately put the wood carvings into the jewelry box.

Then she found that the jade hairpin could not be put in the clothes, so she put it in her clothes.

I placed the jewelry box in a corner at the end of the bed in the room, and laid some winter grass underneath it.

Then he walked towards the door, "I am speechless. He is always looking for trouble. It is really unlucky to have such a bad relative."

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Chen's annoying and sinister face, as if someone owed him a mountain of gold, and he pulled his arm and walked out.

Chen's unpleasant voice shouted, "You bastard, show me what you have done."

Jiang Ci wanted to break free, but Chen was too strong. Jiang Ci's small body couldn't break free at all and could only follow Chen's strength.
