The Petite Wife of the First Family

   Chapter 180 The maid you bought

   Aunt Ma glared at Wen Yuluo as she spoke.

  Wen Yuluo is not a vegetarian. She used to be the daughter-in-law of the Shi Lang's mansion, so the temperament she has cultivated since childhood is not something she can afford.

  Especially, after their family suffered, she suddenly matured and became more stable.

   She had gone through three years of assassination training, and her eyes were very sharp.

   Wen Yuluo stared back at Aunt Ma with cold and fierce eyes.

   A chill ran up the back of the head and went up to the top of the head, goosebumps all over the body, and Aunt Ma suddenly froze in place.

   She suddenly remembered that Xu Zhizhi stared at the Li family with such eyes, and was so frightened that the Li family did not dare to make a sound. She stood by the side at that time, but it was cool.

   Now, it was her who was stared at by that kind of gaze, her mouth was open, but her voice could not come out anyway.

  Xu Daniu saw that Aunt Ma was not leaving or speaking. He looked over strangely and found that she was sweating profusely and her eyes were dull.

   Then he turned his head to look at the girl beside him, his eyes pierced out like a knife, and he immediately understood what had happened.

   The person who smiled at him just now was scared to death just by looking at him. Xu Daniu really admires him!

   He patted Wen Yuluo on the shoulder, and she immediately restrained her aura and became extremely well-behaved.

   Aunt Ma breathed a sigh of relief, but for the sake of her daughter, she still asked fearlessly, "Da Niu, why haven't we met this girl before? Is it the maid you bought from your family?"

  Xu Daniu didn't know why, but he was very unhappy when others said that to the girl beside him. He said coolly, "She is a distant relative of my brother-in-law. What is Aunt Ma asking so much for?"

   Aunt Ma just wanted to know if it was possible for this girl to marry Xu Daniu. She asked so much, not for her own daughter.

   She learned that this girl is a relative of the rich man, so what hope is there for her daughter.

   She said nothing and hurried away.

  Wen Yuluo was very grateful to Xu Daniu for saying this, so that she would not be so embarrassed.

   However, she is still in a low mood, she is a servant, and Xu Daniu is the master's brother-in-law!

  Xu Daniu felt that the girl was in a bad mood all of a sudden, so he changed the subject and said, "The vermicelli we made in the afternoon, take some back to eat at night."

  Xu Feng is a typical foodie, "Okay! Qiu Ju, I'll go back and kill ducks later."

   Qiu Ju said contemptuously: "Master said, you can't eat the same dish in a row, and stew vermicelli with pork belly and cabbage at night."

   "That's delicious too." Xu Feng said and swallowed.

  Wen Yuluo has never eaten it, so she can't say anything. She sees Xu Feng swallowing, and she knows it must be delicious.

   She was inexplicably much better.

   When they arrived at the workshop, they saw that Hu Tiesheng and Xu Lanhua had already cleaned there.

   A few baskets of washed sweet potatoes are placed next to the grinder.

  Hu Tiesheng brought his younger brother and a man surnamed Hu, as well as the village chief's third son and the village chief's two daughters-in-law.

The    shaker was picked by one of Xu Feng’s subordinates. The average person’s arm strength was not enough. Another person was arranged to feed the sweet potatoes, two to wash the powder, and one to carry the water.

  Hu Tiesheng is to learn the whole process, and others are doing a process alone, so don't guard against them.

  Xu Daniu cleared his throat and said loudly: "This sweet potato vermicelli workshop has started, and we won't rest until the New Year."

   "You work four and a half hours a day, (that is, nine hours) other things, my cousin-in-law will arrange, and he will be the manager of the workshop from now on."

   "Your wages are the same as before, twenty cents a day, the same for men and women."

  Xu Daniu is not nervous at all now, these are taught by his sister, and he has already memorized them.

   He finally asked, "Do you have any opinions?"

   Where can everyone have an opinion, this is obviously easier than land reclamation.

  Xu Daniu and Xu Feng taught one process after another.

  The most critical part of making sweet potato vermicelli is the process of mixing sweet potato flour. If it is thinned, it will not have tenacity. Not only will it fall off the bamboo sticks when it is dried, but it will also break easily and not chewy when cooked.

  If it is thickened, there will be a lot of knots, like a little piggy.

  Others are simple and easy to learn. Boil the water. A strong person stands by the hot pot with a leaking ladle in both hands, and one pours the sweet potato flour into the leaking ladle.

  The thin sweet potato flour fell into the boiling water line by line from the small hole of the leaking scoop to become vermicelli.

   At the same time, one person will pick up the vermicelli, and then let another person dry the vermicelli on the bamboo pole, and you're done.

   Xu Zhizhi and Xiao Jingheng were digging sweet potatoes on the mountain, while paying attention to the movement of the workshop.

  If the two of them didn't fight and listened intently, the whole village would not be able to escape their ears.

   It's just that they don't usually have so much free time to take care of other people's affairs.

   However, this afternoon was different, Xu Zhizhi wanted to know how Xu Daniu was doing.

   She was very satisfied with the result. Regardless of personnel arrangement or technical guidance, Xu Daniu was calm and orderly.

   She smiled while listening, and her smile in the sun was extraordinarily bright and beautiful.

   Xiao Jingheng looked at his daughter-in-law while listening, although he looked at his daughter-in-law every day.

   At this time, he was still stunned by the prosperous beauty of his daughter-in-law.

   The love in his eyes was deeper and stronger, the corners of his mouth rose, and he said softly: "Daughter-in-law, you can rest assured now, your two younger brothers have been taught by you very well, and the Daniel can now be on his own."

   Looking at the man's deep, tender eyes, Xu Zhizhi couldn't help but blushed, and said shyly at the corner of her mouth: "You have taught a lot, and you have contributed a lot."

   If Nanqi was not cutting sweet potato vines in front, Nanba was digging sweet potatoes nearby.

   Xiao Jingheng would definitely not be able to hold his daughter-in-law and play kiss.

  It's a pity~~

   At this time, Xiao Jingheng could only look at his daughter-in-law quietly, and neither of them spoke anymore.

   A man looked at the man with tenderness, and the happy smile on the corner of his mouth could not be hidden. A man looked at the woman affectionately, and when he saw her smile, his heart was soft and messy.

   "Sister, brother-in-law, we are here." Xu Xiaowu's excited voice interrupted the affectionate gaze of the two.

   Butler Wen brought Wen Yushu and Xu Xiaowu to the sweet potato field in Houshan.

  The big butler Wen saw the sweet potatoes in the whole mountain, with the smile of a hen after laying eggs in his eyes.

  Xu Zhizhi said happily: "We welcome our children Xiaowu and Yushu to join us in our labor."

  Xu Xiaowu and Wen Yushu worked all day in the morning, picking up sweet potatoes on the ground with ease.

   Butler Wen stepped forward to greet him: "Master, hello Madam."

  Xu Zhizhi said enthusiastically, "Bo Wen, you can call me Girl Zhi and Xiao Jingheng's name in the future."
