Chu Ziluo’s eyes lit up when she heard the words ‘fresh food’. “Mother, can I cook with vou?”
“Of course. Mother will need your help when the time comes.” Ye Muyu picked up a piece of meat and placed it in her bowl.
Chu Ziluo grinned happily.
Madam Zhang came out with the last bowl of rice crust and rice balls. When she saw her smile, she smiled and teased, “What happened to Ziluo? Why are you so happy?
“Auntie, I’m just happy that this bone radish soup is delicious. The radishes are also delicious, and the meat slices are also fragrant.”
“Sister Qiangxiang will definitely make it into the top ten this time. Her needlework and paper-cutting have both made it into the top ten. Only her culinary skills and tea arts are left.”
“The lunch was very delicious. Other restaurants definitely can’t compare to it.” Chu Ziluo praised, “Sister Qingxiang is also the best at tea art. She’ll definitely make it into the top ten.”
” Yo, Ziluo, this child’s words are really nice. Then your Sister Qingxiang will borrow your auspicious words to enter the top ten and bring glory to the clan.” Madam Zhang smiled with her face full of wrinkles. Although the results were not determined, she was embarrassed to show off. Nonetheless, after listening to the child’s words, she felt that it was auspicious, so of course she was happy.
Her daughter had the best results in the entire Chu family.
“Auntie, I’m telling the truth.” Chu Ziluo knew that her aunt liked to hear this. She did not lie, so she felt no guilt and was very calm.
Madam Zhanh laughed even more happily.
Ye Muyu looked at the child with a smile and felt gratified.
In the past, Ziluo would only say this to please the elders. Now that she was no longer careful with her words, the uneasiness in this child’s heart was dispelled by a lot.
After lunch, the men drank some wine and were in a good mood because of the good food at noon.
Liu Hanlai bid farewell to the Chu couple. He did not ask them to send him off. His son and daughter-in-law brought him to the Wang family.
His legs were not good, so he would return home after visiting Wang Haiyan and Wang Chuan.
In the afternoon, there was the cooking competition.
With the experience of the first two matches, the order of the scene was much better. The county magistrate had only gone on stage once during the beginning of the competition. At other times, he was not present. Just the bailiffs arranged by him could maintain order.
Many of the Xie family’s guards had come, and because of this, there was no chaos.
Time passed in a flash, and soon, all four matches were over.
The next afternoon, many young people from the clan went to the county to see the results of the rankings. The results of all the girls’ competitions had already been listed in front of the county government.
The girls were too embarrassed to look, but the young men did not have this worry. They all ran very fast. In addition, the festival had just ended, so there was no farm work at home. They had to go out and play.
Many young people of the Chu family went.
Ye Muyu did not go. Chu Heng left with Lu Chuan early in the morning. In the morning, he asked Lu Chuan to send Ziluo back after the competition, but Chu Heng did not come back.
He only said that there was a problem with his business.
Ye Muyu was a little worried, but she did not feel that something was going to happen. It should be a small problem.
It rained in the morning, and the air was a little cold.
Ye Muyu sat in the main room, making summer clothes.
Chu Ziluo, Madam Hu, and Nenya sat beside her and cooked together with her. Ye Muyu was in charge of cutting the fabric. She wanted to make clothes, especially short underwear, for the two children.
Ye Muyu was not used to the fact that the people of Great Chu only wore long underwear. After coming, she made two sets of boxer shorts in private so she
could feel more at ease.
Ye Muyu decided to make underwear for her family.
As for outsiders, she would not force them. After all, everyone had different habits..
