Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space
Chapter 117 Duck Experiment
But afterwards, Shen and Liu Yanzhi seemed like different people. They no longer mentioned taking advantage of the Xiao family, but instead devoted themselves to helping their son raise ducks.
Liu Jingui was very pleased to see his parents' performance, and he slowly taught his sister to be independent, to cook and wash clothes, and that his parents could not serve him for the rest of his life.
At this point, the eldest wife of the Liu family had completely changed. She was filial to her elders, hardworking and capable, and became a wealthy family by raising ducks. This is a story for later.
Xiao Wan was delighted when she saw the ducks Zhang Liang brought back. She felt even more relieved when she heard Zhang Liang talk about the Liu family.
My cousin can still be saved, so it was worth it for me to help him.
Xiao Wan then took Aunt Zhang to try to braise duck. They braised the duck neck, duck head, duck wings, duck intestines, etc. together and cooked them in two pots, one spicy and the other five-spice.
Finally, two quarters of an hour before serving, Xiao Wan added lotus root, bean curd skin, etc. to cook together.
The taste of the food was absolutely amazing. Xiao Wan was very satisfied with it. It tasted like a black duck from her previous life.
I distributed some to my family members to try, and they received unanimous praise.
Especially Old Man Xiao, he likes spicy food, and the spicier it is, the more he wants to eat it and he can't stop.
Xiao Wan smiled and made another single pancake, a thin layer, thicker and larger than a spring pancake, and ate it with duck intestines. Everyone couldn't stop eating.
The lotus root and bean curd were also very tasty. Xiao Wan regretted not finding kelp, which would also be delicious if braised.
When I have time, I will go to Jiyun City to see if there is any seafood sold there.
Zhang Liang and Tian Shouzhong were wondering while eating. It seemed like the girl had never been out of Jiyun City. How could she cook so many southern foods?
Just with this skill, you will definitely make a lot of money in the future.
But the most important thing for a slave is to control his mouth. The two shook their heads and continued eating.
The family was eating when suddenly someone knocked on the door. Tian Shouzhong hurried over to open it.
When he opened the door, he saw two old men and a child standing there. The child was still arrogant and pointed at him and asked, "Are you a servant of our Xiao family? Why don't you kneel down when you see us?"
Tian Shouzhong almost laughed out of anger. Where did this little bastard come from? He spoke so nonsense!
The two old men behind didn't care and looked as if that was the way it should be.
He used to be a guard in the prince's mansion and a seventh-rank official at the prime minister's door. Everyone who saw him had to be respectful. Except for his own master, he had never been subservient to anyone else here.
A little kid actually dared to ask him to kneel down, and Tian Shouzhong's face couldn't help but darken.
But fearing that he would cause trouble for his master's family, he still bowed and asked, "Old man, which family in our village are you from? Let me inform you first."
The people who came were Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao. Seeing this, Grandma Xiao was a little surprised. She raised her head and said, "We are your master's parents and nephew. Do we need to inform our son when we come to his house?"
Tian Shouzhong heard that it was the old lady, so he said respectfully: "So it is the old master and the old lady. Please come in. I have just arrived and have not seen you two before. I am sorry for the offense. Please forgive me."
As for Xiao Xu, Tian Shouzhong didn't even look at him.
Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao nodded slightly. The two of them rarely walked around before they heard Zhao Cuihua say that her son was going to open another shop in the city.
It’s not enough that Xiao Zhengping goes to school now, he also has a servant to serve him.
Xiao Xu became jealous after hearing this and cried and asked his father to send him to school so that he could eat well.
Boss Xiao was frowning. How could he afford to send his son to school? He was still upset about the matter between Wang and Xiao Ting, so he went to repair the river embankment every day to earn the ten cents a day for the family expenses.
Xiao Lao Er did try to persuade his brother to farm, but Xiao Lao Da had a strong sense of pride and refused to accept his younger brother's help.
Xiao Laoer was helpless and couldn't force it.
Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao saw that their second son's family was getting better and better, while their eldest son's family was in such a state and Xiao Xu couldn't go to school. The balance in their hearts began to tilt again.
The old couple discussed that since their second son's family had become rich, as Xiao Xu's uncle, it was his duty to support his nephew's schooling. They were all family members, so what was wrong with helping out?
Grandpa Xiao has always been a sensible person. Seeing the situation in his eldest son's family, he couldn't bear it, so he agreed with his wife's idea and brought Xiao Xu to their home.
He also knew that some of it was inappropriate, but since his second son had become successful, he couldn't just abandon his brothers.
Moreover, it was only for Xiao Xu's studies. If Xiao Xu became successful in the future, it would also be because of his uncle that he benefited.
As soon as they entered the room, they saw the food on the table, which was either meat or fish. Even the servants were sitting together to eat. Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao felt unhappy.
Seeing that it was their parents who had arrived, Xiao Laoer and Liu hurriedly stood up and invited the two elders to have dinner together.
They didn't feel anything in their hearts, because Xiao Lao Er had never done anything wrong to the two elders, so they were very calm at this time.
Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao felt uncomfortable. Their second son was enjoying a good life at home and had forgotten about his parents?
This is really unfair to Xiao Laoer.
He would send food and drinks, as well as clothes, to the two elders every now and then, and would also give them some silver from time to time. However, the two elders were reluctant to spend the food and drinks, so they gave them all to Xiao Xu and Xiao Lao Da.
