Married to a wealthy family by mistake, the uncle spoiled her

"Just treat it as your own home."

Xu Chuyan: “…”

How could she, a guest, possibly treat this as her own home!

Since she was invited to stay for dinner, she felt embarrassed to just sit there and do nothing. She went into the kitchen to help, but saw two grown men helping in the kitchen.

She couldn't find any work to help with, so she had to leave.

Seeing her fidgeting, Ling Yao put down his guitar and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see the vegetables that Grandma grows."

Xu Chuyan nodded and followed him to the backyard.

Grandma Ling was weeding when she saw the two children. She smiled and said, "You're back!"

Xu Chuyan came over and said, "Grandma, let me help you."

As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and helped Grandma Ling pull out the weeds.

Grandma Ling smiled and said, "Good boy, grandma is just pulling the flowers for fun. I don't need your help. Go and play with Ayao."

Ling Yao also squatted down to help pull it out.

Lazily said: "We are not children, why do we need to play every day?"

Grandma Ling smiled and said, "In my eyes, no matter how old you are, you are still children!"

"Okay, kid, I'll help you pull weeds."

Ling Yao didn't argue with her. He raised his hand and pulled out the radish leaves next to the vegetables.

He pulled them out smoothly and was about to pull out a second one, but Xu Chuyan was quick to grab his wrist and said, "You're pulling the wrong one. These aren't grass, they're carrot leaves."

Ling Yao: “…”

After a while, he managed to save face: "It doesn't grow radishes."

Xu Chuyan said softly, "It hasn't grown yet, but it will grow after a while."

Ling Yao stared at it for a long time, but still felt that it looked like a piece of grass.

Grandma Ling laughed out loud. "This is unbelievable! My brother Yao can't even tell the difference between vegetables and grass. He must have become stupid from studying. Yanyan, you should teach him."

Ling Yao: “…”

Xu Chuyan smiled and said, "I'll teach him right away. Ayao is smart and will be able to tell the difference quickly."

As he spoke, he began to teach him carefully to identify the vegetables in the vegetable garden.

Ling Yao was originally lazy and noncommittal, but Xu Chuyan had a nice voice and spoke very clearly. Every time she introduced a dish, she could tell you an allusion.

For example, when talking about radishes, she can talk about them in great detail.

"It is said that more than 1,300 years ago, when Wu Zetian was emperor, there were very few wars in China. In addition, she was skilled in politics and had a good way of governing the country, so the world was peaceful. Therefore, there was a saying that "wheat grows three heads and corn grows two ears."

One autumn, a huge radish, about three feet tall, green on top and white on the bottom, grew in the vegetable field at Dongguan, Luoyang. The farmers regarded it as a rare treasure and presented it as a tribute to the imperial court.

When Wu Zetian saw it, she was very pleased and ordered the chef to prepare it.

The chef knew very well that he could not make any good dishes with radish, but intimidated by the queen's majesty, he had no choice but to obey her order.

The chefs thought hard and used all their skills to process the radish in many ways, cutting it into even thin strips and adding delicacies from land and sea to make a soup.

When the Queen tasted it, she found it delicious and tasty, with a unique taste, very similar to the flavor of bird's nest, so she named it "fake bird's nest".

From then on, princes, ministers, and royal relatives all used radish as a condiment in their banquets, and “fake bird’s nest” became a delicacy in the world.

Ling Yao unconsciously began to listen very carefully.

After hearing this, Xu Chuyan finished introducing the vegetables in the field.

Not only did he listen attentively, but Grandma Ling also listened attentively.

Ayao has good vision. This child is neither arrogant nor impetuous, and is knowledgeable and talented, which is very rare!

Ling Yao came back to his senses and looked at Xu Chuyan suspiciously: "How do you know so much?"

Xu Chuyan pursed her lips and smiled, "Read books. Books are the golden house. Otherwise, how could I always get first place in the exams?"
