After that dinner party, Bai Youyou's reputation as a good cook became well-known throughout the family compound.

Her fame brought back the story of her teaching people how to make delicious food out of unwanted pig offal.

For a time, everyone envied Sheng Zeyan for being able to marry a wife who was good in every way, and envied him.

He was also teased from time to time by people he knew in the barracks.

This made Sheng Zeyan very proud, and Sheng Zeyan, who always had a cold face in the army, became less cold and his attitude towards people became better in the next few days. In short, whenever he met someone who praised his wife, his attitude was better than ever before.

His transformation made his unmarried comrades very angry.

Compared to Sheng Zeyan's good mood, Bai Youyou was much more upset.

At least nine out of ten people come to her house every day and ask her to help with cooking. These people all say with confidence that her cooking is delicious and there is nothing wrong with going to her house to help cook a meal. They all live in the same housing estate, so it is their duty to help.

Bai Youyou was so angry at their attitude that she dragged Zhang Ru out of the house and refused to see any guests, to see how they could find her.

After all, they lived in the same family compound, and Bai Youyou didn't really want to make the relationship between neighbors particularly awkward. Moreover, many of those who came to her for help were Sheng Zeyan's comrades-in-arms.

This put Bai Youyou in a very passive position.

At noon that day, after sending away the person who came to their house again and wanted to invite Bai Youyou to cook, Bai Youyou was so angry that she didn't eat at home. She pulled Zhang Rusuo and wanted to eat at the state-owned restaurant in the car market.

To comfort her hurt feelings that she had endured silently.

Who knew that before she and Zhang Ru walked out of the gate of the family compound, an old lady ran in from outside and grabbed her hand.

Bai Youyou was caught off guard by her pull and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, her hands were linked with Zhang Ru's, and she was able to use Zhang Ru's strength to steady herself and avoid falling.

Before she could stand firmly, the middle-aged woman who was pulling her started to instruct her in a condescending tone.

"You must be the country girl from Deputy Commander Sheng's family! I heard you're a good cook. My daughter is getting engaged tomorrow. If you have nothing to do tomorrow, come to our house and cook a meal for us!"

I won’t let you work for nothing. I’ll give you ten dollars for a meal.

I'll ask you to buy groceries and cook. We don't have high requirements for food. Just prepare it the same way you prepared it for the dinner you hosted a few days ago.

As for the money left over from buying groceries, just consider it as your hard work fee. I roughly calculated that you can earn at least one or two dollars by cooking this meal.

It's really easy to make money, you can make one or two dollars just by cooking a meal. It's really a bargain for you.

Only our family is so generous as to allow you to earn so much money, you should be grateful to us."

After she said this, she looked down on Bai Youyou, as if Bai Youyou had really taken their family's money.

When Bai Youyou heard this, she became furious.

She broke free from the aunt's hand and said, "Aunt, you are really good at calculating. I am not a professional chef, why should I cook for your family?

Besides, I'm too busy with my own affairs, and you still want me to cook for your family? Where's your face?"

When the aunt heard this, she got angry.

"How can you be so ungrateful, girl? How many people want to make this money but don't have the chance? I've given you this opportunity and you don't know how to cherish it.

My daughter is getting engaged tomorrow, so what's wrong with asking you to come to our house and cook a meal?

It’s not like we won’t pay you.”

When Bai Youyou heard this, she rolled her eyes and said, "Haha, what a joke, what kind of opportunity is this? Do I need you to give me this crappy opportunity?

Besides, your daughter’s engagement has nothing to do with me, and you still want me to cook for you. How shameless are you, or how shameless is your daughter, to let me cook for your family?

If she's engaged, let her do it herself. Why are you looking for me?"

After hearing what Bai Youyou said, the old lady became anxious: "How can that be? How can my daughter, who is a daughter of a wealthy family, go into the kitchen to cook?

As for you, it's different. It's common for a country girl like you to cook. What's wrong with you cooking a meal for our family?

Besides, it’s not like I won’t give you money.”

Zhang Ru, who was standing next to her, heard her say this about Bai Youyou and became furious, cursing, "Sister, it's not nice to force others like this.

Your daughter is a princess, but isn’t my Youyou also a princess? In my eyes, she is a fairy, and no one else can compare to her.

In our family, my son and I would never let her suffer any injustice, but she is not someone who can be ordered around by others here."

At this time, some neighbors gathered around and pointed at the old lady. The old lady was a little embarrassed and snorted and said:

"Who are you? Why do you say that to me? I just invited her to my house to cook a meal. I didn't do anything to her."

Zhang Ru was even more anxious now. "Who I am is none of your business."

Zhang Ru continued, "I only know that you are bullying my daughter-in-law. This is unacceptable. My daughter-in-law has never been wronged by me. What right do you, an old woman, have to order her around?"

The aunt was furious and was about to retort when she suddenly saw Sheng Zeyan in the crowd.

Sheng Zeyan walked over with a sullen face and pulled Bai Youyou behind him, "Mom, what are you doing? What happened?"

The aunt is the mother of Sheng Zeyan's comrade-in-arms, and she is usually a bit domineering.

Now that he saw Sheng Zeyan had also arrived, he said even more arrogantly:

"Deputy Captain Sheng, it's a good thing you came. Do you care about your mother and your wife bullying an old woman like me?"

Sheng Zeyan didn't even look at her, his eyes were fixed on Bai Youyou.

"How are you and mom? Are you hurt anywhere?"

When Bai Youyou saw Sheng Zeyan coming, she felt a surge of grievance in her heart for no reason, and she looked at him with tears in his eyes, which was so pitiful.

Sheng Zeyan felt very distressed about Bai Youyou. His young wife had never been so aggrieved since she married him.

Looking at Bai Youyou's tears, Sheng Zeyan didn't know what to do for a moment, and could only keep wiping her tears with his sleeves.

When the old lady saw that Sheng Zeyan ignored her, she blamed Bai Youyou even louder.

Sheng Zeyan finally couldn't bear it anymore, he turned around and looked at the aunt with cold eyes,

"Auntie, you are also an elder, and I respect you. But what you did today was wrong.

My wife is not there to be ordered around. She is willing to teach everyone how to turn pig offal into delicious food out of kindness, not obligation.

If you want to hire someone to cook, you can ask a chef instead of forcing my wife to do it."

The aunt's face turned red and white at Sheng Zeyan's words, "You...how can you talk to me like that? Aren't you afraid that I will make my son break up with you?"

Sheng Zeyan said seriously, "Oh! Really? Then let your son come to me and break up with me.

Now I tell you solemnly that Bai Youyou is my wife, and not someone who can be invited by anyone.

I hope this kind of thing won't happen again. I won't bother with you this time because you're the mother of my comrade-in-arms, and I'll respect you a little more. But if you embarrass my wife again, don't blame me for being rude." Sheng Zeyan looked at the auntie meaningfully, actually telling the people around him who wanted Bai Youyou to cook.

Sheng Zeyan glanced at her and said seriously, "Also, if you want to hire someone to cook, you can go to a restaurant and hire a chef. My wife is not there to be ordered around by you.

In our family, my wife is our treasure. She is not someone who can be bullied by anyone.

The aunt was frightened by Sheng Zeyan's cold face, but then she saw that Sheng Zeyan didn't give her son face, and her face turned pale.

"Humph, I only invited her because you're the deputy leader. You guys really don't know what's good for you."

Sheng Zeyan was completely furious this time and sneered, "You are not inviting me, you are forcing me.

Auntie, who do you think you are? Who is your son? We don’t know what’s good for us, but I think it’s your family that doesn’t know what’s good for us!

Since you don't want me to resolve the issue peacefully, I can only ask your son to resolve it."

When the old lady heard that Sheng Zeyan was looking for her son, she immediately panicked.

She knew very well that her son always valued his friendship with Sheng Zeyan. If she destroyed their relationship because of her unreasonable behavior, her son would definitely not forgive her. Then she might be sent back to the countryside. She would never go back to that broken place in the countryside.

Thinking of this, she immediately changed her expression and said with an apologetic smile, "Deputy Captain Sheng, I was confused just now. Please don't take it to heart. I will go back now and never mention the matter of asking your wife to cook again. Don't bother with an old woman like me. I'm leaving now."

After saying that, he turned around and ran away in shame.

She really ran, and she ran so fast that it seemed as if she was about to be bitten by a dog in the next second.

When the neighbors saw this, they all praised Sheng Zeyan for his good way of protecting his wife.

Sheng Zeyan glanced meaningfully at the direction she fled, then looked at Bai Youyou tenderly and asked softly, "Are you hungry? Let's go to the state-owned restaurant and have a good meal."

After saying that, he took Bai Youyou and Zhang Ru away.

On the way, Bai Youyou felt warm in her heart and leaned towards Sheng Zeyan, "Thank you."

Sheng Zeyan touched her head and said, "Silly wife, I will definitely not let anyone bully you. Say thank you to your own husband."

Finally, Bai Youyou burst into laughter and walked out of the family compound with Sheng Zeyan and Zhang Ru.

After this incident, everyone in the family compound knew that Bai Youyou was not someone to be bullied, and no one dared to come to her house and force her to cook anymore.

Bai Youyou's life returned to peace, of course, that was something that happened later.

Now it’s Bai Youyou who won’t let go of anyone who bullies her, even the mother of Sheng Zeyan’s comrade.

She must eat her melon and make her unable to stay in this family compound.

【Xiao Ba, bring the melon.】

[Here I come. Host, which melon do you want to eat? I have three melons from her family in my hand. Which one do you want to eat first?]

[Well, I want to eat all three melons. Now I want to eat the biggest one first.]

[Okay, host, I will show you the biggest melon right now.

The biggest news is that her daughter who is getting engaged tomorrow is pregnant before marriage, and the child is not going to be with the man she is engaged to.

The man became the scapegoat, and the child was conceived by her daughter who was a mistress.

After the man found out she was pregnant, he gave her family some money and broke up with her.

The man who caused her daughter to become pregnant was her lover before, and she was the mistress.

In order to continue to be with her lover, she even gave up her own daughter.

But in the end, her lover dumped both her and her daughter after finding out her daughter was pregnant.

She had no other choice but to ask her son, a soldier in the army, to find a man to marry her daughter off to.

[Ah! ~] Bai Youyou's mouth dropped open at the system's words. This was too damn exaggerated.

This also surprised Sheng Zeyan, who had remained calm all the time, not to mention Zhang Ru.

It was when Zhang Ru was at Bai Youyou's house that she realized that she could hear the inner voices of Bai Youyou and the thing called the system.

She also talked about this matter with Sheng Zeyan in private, and learned a lot of things she didn't know.

After that conversation, she calmly accepted the fact that she could hear her inner voice.

[Host, please stop, this is the biggest melon.]

[No, Xiaoba, does her son really not know about what they did? Logically speaking, her son is a soldier, and his monthly allowance should be quite a lot! Is it necessary for them, mother and daughter, to become mistresses for money?

This doesn’t make sense.]

[Hehe, of course they're not in it for the money.] Xiao Ba's tone was always mean when he said this. If he could have an expression, it would definitely be a mean one.

But our Xiaobai Bai Youyou didn't realize that System Xiaoba was being mean, and she even asked foolishly: "If they're not doing it for money, then what is it for? Could it be that it's simply for that man?"

【Hehe, of course.】

[No, are they crazy? Just for a man, both mother and daughter are doing this together.

Could it be that the man is very handsome?]

[NoNoNo, that man is not handsome at all, on the contrary he is a bit ugly.]

This made Bai Youyou even more confused. [What are they trying to achieve?]

[Hey, what's the purpose? Of course, it's for the man's waist and kidneys to be healthy!]

Bai Youyou: […………]
