Ye Jiayao wrapped the pork and leek dumplings, cooked them in a pot, prepared the dipping sauce, and asked Peng Wu to deliver them to the second master and the first master before cooking Chunyu's. She was still angry and didn't bother to call him. Song Qi got this opportunity to flatter him and happily ran to ask the third master to come and eat dumplings.
Originally, Ye Jiayao shouted at him to eat every time, but today it was Song Qi who called him, and Xia Chunyu was still not used to it.
Ye Jiayao put the dumplings on a plate and placed them on the stove, while Song Qile carried them over.
"Third Master, look at how beautiful the dumplings made by my sister-in-law are and how much better they taste. You can eat the dumplings stuffed with cabbage and pork while they are hot."
Xia Chunyu was about to speak, but when he heard what he said, he glanced at him. Isn't this nonsense? Aren’t you about to eat
Looking at the woman again, she was busy in front of the stove. She didn't even look in his direction even when she turned around, showing off her attitude of not paying attention to anyone.
He was really petty, and he didn't say anything. Did he deserve to be angry
The dumplings are neatly arranged on the plate. Each dumpling is even in size, has six pleats, and is round, like half a small bun. The dumpling skin is crystal clear, and you can vaguely see the color of the mushrooms and pork inside, just like a crystal steamed dumpling. It seems so tempting.
When you take a bite, the delicious soup oozes from the filling, and your mouth is full of oil. The refreshing taste of cabbage, the tenderness and fragrance of pork, the right balance of salty and sweet, and the authentic Jiangnan flavor. Xia Chunyu admired it sincerely. It seemed that there was nothing she couldn't do, as if with her hands, any ordinary ingredients could be made into delicious food.
"You come and eat too." Xia Chunyu took the initiative to ask her to eat for the first time.
Ye Jiayao just didn't hear anything and continued working.
Xia Chunyu frowned dissatisfied, this woman was too pretentious.
Song Qi chuckled and said, "Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang will come over to eat dumplings later, and my sister-in-law is still making their share."
Xia Chunyu had no choice but to keep eating dumplings.
"Third Master, Third Master, something big happened..." Peng Wu ran in in a panic.
He chuckled and said, "Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang will come over to eat dumplings later, and my sister-in-law is still making their share."
Xia Chunyu, who was facing the collapse of the mountain, said calmly and calmly without changing his expression: "Straighten your tongue and speak."
Peng Wu is from Shanxi. He usually rolls his tongue a little when he talks, but he rolls his tongue even more when he is anxious.
"The third master, the spy has been caught. The first master is interrogating him. I want you to come over quickly." Peng Wu said.
Xia Chunyu stuffed a dumpling into his mouth. He was stunned for a moment and said vaguely: "Really? Who is it?"
"It's a brother from the Seventh Battalion named Tong Hexiang."
Xia Chunyu put down his chopsticks, still chewing dumplings, stood up and said, "Let's go and have a look."
Song Qidao: "I'll go too."
Why don’t you watch it if it’s exciting
All of a sudden, everyone left. Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes angrily. When they came back, the dumplings were already cold. The hot dumplings were not as delicious as the ones freshly baked. Wasn't her hard work for a long time in vain
But then I thought about it, if the spy is really caught, it means that Chunyu's suspicion can be cleared, and the Dragon-Breaking Stone can be reopened. In comparison, a plate of dumplings is nothing.
Not long after, Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang came.
"Where is the third boss?" Uncle Jiang looked around and asked.
Ye Jiayao curled her lips and said: "Halfway through the meal, he said that he had caught the spy, and the boss asked him to pass."
Uncle Jiang looked a little strange, as if he was surprised: "Caught?"
"That's what I said. I don't know how many people were arrested in the past few days. None of them admitted it. In the end, it was all settled. This is probably a mistake." Ye Jiayao disagreed.
Uncle Jiang smiled and said, "That's right."
"Ignore them, let's eat ours. Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang, do you know how to eat wild rice stuffing?" Ye Jiayao asked. Peng Wu ordered the leek dish. Song Qi and Chunyu both wanted the cabbage and meat dish, and the only ones left were wild rice and meat stuffing.
Uncle Jiang said: "I can do anything, and whatever the third lady cooks is delicious."
Aunt Jiang said with a smile: "That is, compared to the craftsmanship of the third lady, the ones made by Old Yutou can only be called pig food."
Last time, Aunt Jiang offended Old Yutou and the aunts in the kitchen in order to gain favor for the Third Madam. In addition, Old Yutou's qualification to cook for the Second Master was taken away by the Third Madam. Old Yutou treated her badly. More and more, her nose is not a nose, her eyes are not eyes, and it is very unpleasant to get along with her. If it were not for her round waist, thick arms, strength and strength, she would have suffered a lot, and she has no good impression of those people at all.
Ye Jiayao smiled and said: "Lao Yutou's braised food is pretty good."
"That can't compare to you." Aunt Jiang said.
Chunyu and the others came back after more than an hour. Ye Jiayao was lying on the couch with her eyes closed and concentrating. When she heard that they were back, she got up and went to get them food.
This is her job, and no matter how reluctant she is, she must do her job well, especially when she encounters such an unreliable jackass.
Peng Wu's portion was cooked for him before it was even out of the pot. Chunyu and Song Qi's portion was already cold, so Ye Jiayao changed the pan to make fried dumplings.
The three of them sat around the dinner table and continued to discuss the spy.
"I didn't expect that Tong Hexiang actually admitted it." Song Qi sighed: "I really can't tell! I also played a double dunk with him and won him a lot of money."
Peng Wudao: "He sneaked down the mountain and was caught. What's there to say? The boss hasn't punished him yet!"
"But the boss said that as long as he confessed truthfully, he would be spared his life and given a lenient sentence. As a result, he was killed on the spot." Song Qi muttered, this is considered to be a confession! If you escape down the mountain privately, you will be slapped with a hundred sticks, which is equivalent to a death penalty.
"Third Master, what do you think?" Peng Wu asked.
Xia Chunyu pondered for a long time: "I hope it's him, so that the crisis in the cottage can be resolved."
No one knew better than him whether Tong Hexiang was a spy, but he actually confessed. When the boss killed Tong Hexiang, the horrifying look of disbelief in Tong Hexiang's eyes seemed to be blaming the boss for keeping his words. Was he really stupid? ? Are you so stupid that you think you can survive by admitting to being a spy? Could it be that the head of the family had discussed it with him beforehand, so Tong Hexiang was so surprised and unwilling before his death
Could this be a trap set by the boss? Let the real spies think that the crisis has been resolved and then relax their vigilance and take action
This is not impossible, otherwise, the boss should follow the clues and interrogate whether he has any accomplices, how he is connected with the court, etc. However, the big boss killed the person without asking any further details.
"The boss has already informed the entire village, how can he still make false claims?" Peng Wu said.
Xia Chunyu sighed: "I'm worried that Feng Chaolin is colluding with the court, and we will take action soon."
Ye Jiayao kept listening with her ears pricked up. Poof... the water in the pot boiled and overflowed.
Ye Jiayao hurriedly opened the lid of the pot and took out the dumplings.
"Peng Wu, your dumplings are ready."
Peng Wu glanced at the third master. The third master hadn't eaten yet. How could he eat first? He said, "Sister-in-law, I'm not hungry. You can cook it for me first."
Ye Jiayao let him eat it or not, adding a small spoonful of water to the frying pan, covering the pan and simmering for a while. After a while, the fried dumplings with shiny orange skin and fragrant aroma came out of the pan.
"It's all ready. Come and get it yourself." Ye Jiayao took off her apron and called it a day. When she walked out of the kitchen, she didn't forget to say: "Clean up the kitchen when you're done eating."
Damn it, I'm going to start training you old men. If you want to eat the food I cook, you have to be more honest.
The three grown men looked at each other in confusion. Peng Wu was confused. There seemed to be something wrong with the sister-in-law today. Song Qi had a rough idea, but only Xia Chunyu knew that this damn woman's face was exposed to him.
"I'll get it, I'll get it." Song Qi was afraid that the third master was going to have an attack, and the third master's face was so dark that he was almost dripping with water.
It was only at this point that we had lunch, and everyone was already so hungry that they felt the dumplings were particularly delicious, especially the fried dumplings, which had a crispy yellow skin and a particularly fragrant texture. The three of them wolfed down the food until their bellies were full.
Song Qi and Peng Wu consciously cleaned up the mess, and Xia Chunyu went back to the house, thinking as they walked, should they coax her? But, is he right? Didn't he just ask one more question instead of answering her question? Women are difficult to negotiate.
Before she could figure out what to do, she saw Ye Jiayao playing with the first and second babies on the couch. She couldn't help but frown: "Didn't you say you are not allowed to bring them in?"
Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes and ignored him. She did it deliberately to see what he could do to her. Anyway, she was in a bad mood and he couldn't feel comfortable either.
Xia Chunyu stared at the rabbit's butt nervously, fearing that the rabbit would poop on the couch again.
"Hurry up and take them away." Xia Chunyu saw that she was indifferent and shouted impatiently.
The two little rabbits trembled at the roar and clung to Ye Jiayao's legs, looking at Xia Chunyu uneasily. Ye Jiayao touched Dabao and Erbao and said softly: "Be good, don't be afraid, he just has a loud voice and won't do anything to you."
"Ye Jinxuan..." Xia Chunyu couldn't bear it anymore. She was becoming more and more presumptuous. Did she turn a deaf ear to his words? Don't you even want to be obedient and perfunctory
"Why are you shouting so loudly? You're not deaf?" Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes at him.
"It turns out you are not deaf. I thought you were deaf. Didn't you hear what I said?" Xia Chunyu said with a dark face.
"I heard it, but why should I listen to you? Are you nice to me? In your eyes, am I not just a cook, a washerwoman, a toy that warms your bed, and can be discarded at any time? Since you If you don't take me seriously, then stop asking so much of me." Ye Jiayao said expressionlessly.
Xia Chunyu was furious: "Don't be so shameless?"
What the hell are you talking about? Ye Jiayao cursed in her heart. These words touched her nerves. Damn it, I don’t want to get angry today. She looked at him with her chin raised and smiled coldly: "Did you give me a face? Just this bad face? Whoever likes it can take it, my aunt doesn't care."
"Ye Jinxuan, my patience has its limit." Xia Chunyu gritted his teeth. This woman was not done with her nonsense.
"My patience has its limits. Do you really think I'm a bitch who comes and goes at a moment's notice, always putting his hot face on other people's cold ass? You don't want to bear it anymore, I can't bear it anymore! What's going on, hurry up If I leave, you should strangle me to death. Come on, come on..." Not to be outdone, Ye Jiayao straightened her neck and raised her chin higher.
Who said that when a husband and wife quarrel for the first time, they either don't quarrel, or if they want to quarrel, they must win the quarrel, make the quarrel so powerful, and completely overwhelm them. Anyway, they don't count on him in the future, so they can take advantage of this time for him to make up for the loss and vent his anger.
