I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating - Chapter 198
Chapter 198: Over
At this moment, Zhao Lanhua had mixed feelings.
She thought for a moment and looked up at the guilty Eldest Brother Shen. She asked softly, “Son, do you really know your mistake? Then tell me, what did you do wrong?
Eldest Brother Shen didn’t know how to explain.
“I’ll speak for you.” Zhao Lanhua thought for a moment and sighed softly. “You felt that we all mobilized just because your Third Brother had a nightmare, so you didn’t feel so good, right? In addition, Ah Tao insisted that you guys change paths. You didn’t feel good about that either. You think your Third Brother and his wife are fooling teasing you, right? You even think that we’re deliberately helping your Third Brother and his wife fool you, right? Because we firmly believe your Third Brother’s nightmare, you must feel that it’s ridiculous, right?
“If I’m not wrong, you think that Father and Mother dote on your Third Brother more, right?”
Eldest Brother Shen did not say anything because that was exactly what he was thinking.
He was the eldest of the three brothers in the Shen family, but the person his parents placed their highest hopes on was his Third Brother. Especially after his third brother’s leg was crippled, as the eldest brother and the person who earned the most money for the family, his personality had changed.
…..
“In the early years, when the business of the shop was not good, you always had a long face when you returned home during the winter months. Your father and I saw this and were anxious, but we were afraid that you would be sad, so we didn’t dare to ask too much.” Zhao Lanhua looked into his eyes and said earnestly, “As the eldest brother of the family, you have a lot of responsibilities on your shoulders. Every year, the two of you give the most money to the family. But son, you didn’t raise this family alone. All the money you gave us over the years has been saved up by me.”
“Do you know why Mother can save money?
“Because our family has a plot of land, and more importantly, your third brother is a well-known scholar on the rankings, so the taxes our family pays every year are 30% less than the other farmers.”
“The reason why I’m telling you this is to tell you that you and Third Brother are both my sons. Both of you are equally important to me. Your father and I are not so bored as to help your Third Brother fool you!”
“Second Brother is lucky this time, but what if you didn’t have an argument at that time? If you didn’t have an argument and didn’t waste time on the road, wouldn’t you have been able to bring Second Brother back earlier?”
If they hadn’t argued, Second Brother wouldn’t have fallen into the water and almost lost his life! Ah Tao wouldn’t have been so sick!
“Mother, I’m really sorry!” The more he thought about it, the more guilty Eldest Brother Shen felt. He knelt on the ground with a thud. “It’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have been so suspicious!”
Zhao Lanhua could not help but wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
“I admit that it sounds a little ridiculous to make you guys work so hard just because of your third brother’s nightmare, but son, think about it carefully. Growing up, has your third brother ever done anything ridiculous like that? If our family can’t even trust each other, this family will disband sooner or later.
Do you understand?”
“Get up.” Zhao Lanhua’s heart ached as she helped Eldest Brother Shen up from the ground. “It’s freezing here. The ground is very cold. Don’t hurt your knees from the cold.”
“Son, I’m not telling you this to blame you. I just want to help you untie the knot in your heart,” Zhao Lanhua said earnestly. “This matter is over.”
“I will follow your teachings, Mother.”
After sleeping for another morning, Ji Zhao finally woke up.
She was prepared to say that she was hungry and was woken up by the fragrance in the air.
“It smells so good!”
“Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law specially bought some bird’s nest for you.” Shen Yao tapped the tip of her nose dotingly, then placed the pillow behind her waist. “Get up and try it.”
“Isn’t bird’s nest very expensive? Why are Eldest Brother and Eldest
Sister-in-law spending so much money?” Ji Zhao’s heart ached. “A tael of bird’s nest can buy a lot of pork ribs!”
“Eldest Brother said that this is his apology gift.” Shen Yao hurriedly scooped up a spoonful of bird’s nest and brought it to her lips. “Mother specially stewed it for you. She even put some rock sugar in it. It should be very sweet. Try it?” Ji Zhao couldn’t wait to eat a spoonful. In the end, her eyes lit up.
“It’s sweet. It’s better than sweet soup.” Ji Zhao subconsciously licked her lips. “But don’t let Eldest Brother spend so much money in the future. Besides, why would he give me an apology gift?” Shen Yao explained concisely.
Ji Zhao was completely stunned. “Actually, Eldest Brother’s considerations are reasonable. Isn’t what Mother said a little too harsh?”
“It’s over.” Shen Yao held a handkerchief and gently wiped her lips. “There’s no need to think about it anymore.”
“Yeah.”
After three days of recuperation, Ji Zhao had regained her combat strength. “Mother, is our family killing pigs today?” Ji Zhao rubbed her small hands impatiently. “Can you let me make the
She had not touched a kitchen knife for many days. Her hand was itchy!
“No problem,” Zhao Lanhua replied brightly. “Ah Tao, actually, even if you didn’t mention it, Mother would have given you this difficult task!”
“That’s great. Thank you, Mother!” Ji Zhao immediately beamed and picked up the kitchen knife happily. “Did the butcher come to our house?”
“Not yet. He probably hsould be at your Aunt Guihua’s house now, right?”
Speak of the devil.
Before Zhao Lanhua could finish speaking, Aunt Guihua had already sent over a fat pork trotter. “Sister Lanhua, the trotter you wanted is here!”
“So soon?” Zhao Lanhua was also very surprised. “Didn’t the butcher go to your house only an hour ago?
“At first, it was a little difficult to settle, but later on, my brother came. With the help of another person, our work became faster.” Aunt Guihua explained happily.
“I see.” Zhao Lanhua nodded. “Can you get Dongzi to come to my house to help later? By the way, don’t cook today. My Ah Tao will be cooking personally later. Do you want to try it too?”
“That’s great!” Aunt Guihua couldn’t wait to answer. “Sister Lanhua, keep these trotters for now. I’ll go back and tell them.”
Before nine o’clock, the big fat pig from the Shen family was also killed by the butcher.
In the kitchen, Ji Zhao rolled up her sleeves and began to pack up the ingredients.
Actually, the had another name, which was Stew Dish.
The main raw ingredients came from pig blood.
After chopping the pig’s bloody neck into large pieces, she cooked it and placed it in the pot. Finally, she added some dried cabbage bit by bit and added some water and seasoning. When the meat and vegetables were cooked, she poured all the blood sausages she had prepared beforehand. This was the freshest Butcher’s Dish.
However, Ji Zhao planned to upgrade the Butcher’s Dish today..
