When the meal was almost finished, Yun Xi went to bring in a small basin of bone soup. As soon as the soup basin was placed on the table, Mrs. Li smelled the aroma of different kinds of fried meat.
The taste is not particularly strong, but it is strangely enticing. The milky white soup is dotted with some corn chunks, which looks very appetizing.
Mrs. Li was already full, but when she saw the soup, she couldn't help but be tempted again.
She was like this, let alone the two little ones. Erbao and Yaya looked eagerly at the corn in the bowl, their dark eyes full of longing.
Even Ji Jiuye was attracted and looked over when the bone soup was brought in. He wanted to ask what kind of soup it was, but he felt a little embarrassed so he didn't ask.
Yun Xi served four bowls of soup for Li and her three siblings. She didn't really want to drink it, so she didn't get it for herself.
But when Ji Jiuye saw that she only filled four bowls of soup, he subconsciously misunderstood her and thought that Yun Xi had forgotten about him and didn't get it for him, so he couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed.
Why did this damn woman forget him
He wants to drink too!
Ji Jiuye was thinking about whether he should tell the woman directly that he wanted to drink and ask her to get him a bowl, but then he thought that his move was inappropriate and a bit disrespectful as a scholar.
So, Ji Jiuye silently closed his mouth and restrained himself from looking away, but he made a serious note to Yun Xi in his heart.
Just when he was sulking, he felt a shadow over his head, as if he had something in his heart. He turned his head and saw Yun Xi sitting by the bed with a bowl of soup, and a pair of pure eyes looking at him. .
Before he had time to think about it, her voice came to his ears.
"Ms. sir, drink some soup. This soup is made from bones and is very good for your injured leg. I bought it specially to make it for you."
Ji Jiuye was stunned, looking at her blankly, automatically filtering her words, and his mind was filled with her voice.
In his memory, her voice was bitter and harsh, harsh and annoying, but now, why did he think her voice sounded so nice
Although it was cold, it was soft and gentle. It was definitely the best sound he had ever heard.
Damn it, this woman's temperament has changed drastically, but why is her voice completely different from what he remembers
Or is it because he has never listened to her voice seriously before, so he has this illusion
"Ms. sir, what are you thinking about? The soup is getting cold."
Yun Xi took an old coarse porcelain spoon and gently stirred it in the soup a few times.
Hearing this, Ji Jiuye hurriedly came to his senses and felt extremely embarrassed when he thought that he was distracted by her voice.
He coughed lightly, ignored her words, and said to himself, "Give it to me, I will do it myself."
The woman said earlier that the soup was specially made for him, and he didn't know if she was just saying it casually to fool him or if she was telling the truth.
If she is telling the truth, then this woman is almost certainly being swapped.
Otherwise, based on her past actions, her hatred for their family and her disgust for him, how could she be so considerate of him
"Didn't my husband still want me to serve you just now? Why do you have to do it yourself now? Could it be that I didn't serve you well just now?"
Ji Jiuye:…
Li:…
The mother and son were completely confused. Li had a ghostly expression on his face, while Ji Jiuye had a stiff face, not knowing how to react.
This woman is really...
He didn't even know how she managed to say this so calmly.
"No, I'll do it myself."
Ji Jiuye suppressed the absurdity and confusion in his heart and stretched out his hand expressionlessly.
He wanted to do it by himself, but Yun Xi didn't embarrass him and immediately handed the bowl into his hand.
"Then my husband, please take care of it and be careful not to spill it on the bed."
Ji Jiuye:…
He hurt his leg, not his hand!
Besides, he wasn't a child anymore, so he couldn't even hold a bowl. Why did she need to remind him deliberately
Not wanting to pay attention to her, Ji Jiuye took the bowl and drank.
The milky white bone soup is rich, fragrant and delicious, and the corn seems to have a different taste.
tasty!
This woman's cooking skills are really good.
Ji Jiuye thought while eating, it would be great if she could always be like this afternoon.
Alas, I don’t know if I will be able to eat her cooking again in the future.
I really hope that she is who she is this afternoon and not just pretending.
After finishing the meal, the sky was completely dark, and Li finally believed that those big bare bones with no meat at all could be eaten, and they tasted particularly good.
She couldn't help but feel ashamed for having previously assumed that Yun Xi could not live a normal life. It turned out that her eldest daughter-in-law was not unable to live a normal life, but that she was well-informed and knew more things than she knew.
After feeling ashamed, Mrs. Li secretly decided that this stuff was cheap and, according to Xi Niang, very nutritious. She would buy more in the future to replenish the health of several children.
When Yun Xi was about to clean up the dishes, Mrs. Li quickly went over and snatched the work away, saying that she would not let Yun Xi wash the dishes anymore.
Today Yun Xi split the firewood and cooked the rice. More importantly, Yun Xi bought all the ingredients.
After spending so much money to improve the food for the family, Mrs. Li was too embarrassed to leave the dishwashing job to Yun Xi.
Although they are a family, it doesn't matter who does more or less, but if Yun Xi does everything, her conscience will be uneasy.
Yun Xi saw that Mrs. Li was resolute. If she tried to fight again, Mrs. Li would make it clear that she would be impatient, so she stopped fighting and gave the job to Mrs. Li.
However, he did not forget to say "Thank you for your hard work" to Mrs. Li, who was immediately flattered and didn't know how to let go of her hands and feet.
After being at a loss, I felt elated for a while.
After Mrs. Li finished washing the dishes, she originally planned to turn off the heat, but thinking of Yun Xi who had been busy all day, she opened the lid again and added a pot of water to heat it up.
But she remembered that the eldest daughter-in-law was very clean, unlike other girls in the village.
After heating the water, Mrs. Li went to find Yun Xi. After searching around, she found her in their new house and saw her sorting out the wardrobe.
"Mother Xi, I boiled a pot of hot water. Do you want to wash it?"
"Okay, thank you, mother."
Yun Xi closed the cupboard door and after finishing her words, she suddenly thought of something and said, "Mom, I want to tell you something."
"What?"
Mrs. Li looked at her, her body tensed up, and her heart couldn't help but become nervous. She didn't know what her eldest daughter-in-law was going to say to her suddenly.
Seeing her reaction, Yun Xi laughed softly and said, "Mom, don't be nervous, it's actually not a big deal..."
