Travel back to ancient times and open a Sichuan restaurant

Chapter 237

The small workshop, which had just been closed for two days, started to work again, and Zhao Dazhuang also started to work the night shift.

Because of this order, when Zhong Ruyi went to the mason to order the jar, the mason's face was full of smiles.

"My daughter, since you started making canned food, I haven't taken any orders from others. Even if I did, my two sons would help. Now you're asking for 2,000 cans again. This really makes me feel both sad and happy!"

Zhong Ruyi naturally knew that not only the masons, but many people in the village had extra income because of the small workshop she opened.

She smiled and gave the money to the jar, saying that she wanted to exchange it for the previous one thousand for one bar, and the remaining two thousand would be divided into two bars and three bars, each worth five hundred.

The mason happily sent the big customer away, and turned to his wife and said, "I wish I had a daughter as capable as this."

The old man said angrily, "Yes, yes, yes! Everyone wants to have such a capable daughter, but unfortunately we have never had a daughter in these years!"

After giving birth to two sons, her belly stopped moving.

Knowing that his wife wanted a daughter just like him, but just couldn't get pregnant, the mason realized he had said the wrong thing, slapped himself twice, apologized with a smile, and dared not say anything more.

When the three people who were making meat floss got off work, their wrists were shaking a little. Zhong Ruyi saw it and asked them to soak their hands in hot water when they went home, which would help.

The three of them thanked him and went back.

Mrs. Wu went back with Aunt Wang, and naturally there was no one to cook when they got home.

Her husband had just got off work not long ago, so her brother-in-law made some noodles and ate them before going to take over their night shift.

Just as she was about to go into the kitchen to cook, Aunt Wang grabbed her wrist and pulled her out again.

The family members hadn't noticed that they had come back and left, and were still sitting in the main room waiting for them to come back and cook.

Mrs. Wu was a little confused. "Mom, did you leave something over there and forget to take it? It won't be too late to get it tomorrow."

Aunt Wang looked very disappointed. "You work all day and have to cook for them when you get home from work at night. Don't you have any thoughts in your mind?"

Any ideas?

She was a little confused. Isn't it normal to do laundry and cook at home?

Even if I go out to work during the day, I still have to cook and serve the whole family when I come back.

This is how her mother came from and how she was taught, but why did her mother-in-law still ask her if she had any ideas?

"Anyway, don't worry about it. Your father has been idle at home all day today. We have to serve him when we come back from work. There is no such good thing as a good bargain in the world!" Aunt Wang looked annoyed.

Except for Zhao Ganwei, everyone else at home had something to do. She originally thought that her husband would take the initiative to cook seeing how hard she worked, but when she got home, she was faced with an empty stove and an empty pot. She got angry just thinking about it.

"Let's leave them to starve today! I've asked your Aunt Zhao to save dinner for us today. Let's go to her house to eat first and then go back after we're done."

Mrs. Wu was still a little hesitant. Not to mention her father, there was also her husband, who had worked a day, and Tie Niu, a half-grown child, at home.

Aunt Wang glanced at her sideways and said, "I feel bad for my son and my grandson, but if I don't punish them today, I won't be able to swallow this anger!"

Seeing this look, Wu quickly shut up and followed her mother-in-law into Aunt Zhao's house.

The Zhao family members who were waiting for the two women at home to get home from work and cook had been waiting for a long time. Normally, they should have returned home at this time, so why haven't they returned home yet so late today?

Zhao Ganwei frowned. Could something have happened on the way? But what could have happened in his own village?

Wait a little longer. If they don’t come back after a while, go out and look for them.

I waited until I started to panic, thinking that something really had happened between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law.

Zhao Ganwei called his son and grandson and was about to go out to look for them, when he saw the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walking in slowly.

Seeing that they seemed to be going out, Aunt Wang asked in surprise, "Where are you going so late at night?"

Now that I'm back, I don't have to go hungry anymore.

Zhao Ganwei said angrily, "Why did you come back so late when Dazhuang took over your shift? Do you know that our whole family is hungry and waiting for you to come back and cook?"

Aunt Wang smiled and said nothing, then went into the kitchen.

Wu also followed them in, and everyone thought they were going in to cook.

He didn't say anything else and continued to sit in the main room waiting for dinner.

But after waiting for a long time, the two people who were usually quick and nimble had not yet prepared the meal.

Zhao Ganwei couldn't wait any longer and went straight to the kitchen to see what they were doing.

There was a fire burning in the stove, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sitting on small stools chatting and laughing.

When Mrs. Wu saw her father-in-law coming in, she felt a little nervous, but she still called him "Dad" and continued talking to her mother-in-law.

Zhao Ganwei asked, "Why isn't the food ready yet? I've been hungry all day."

Wu looked at her mother-in-law and didn't dare to answer.

Aunt Wang stood up with a half-smile on her face. "Are you hungry? If you are, just go out and wait. You don't have to light the fire to cook. The food will be ready soon."

Zhao Ganwei was still a little afraid of his wife. Seeing that she seemed to be in a bad mood, he didn't dare to say much and went out.

After the others left, Aunt Wang opened the lid of the pot and found that there was hot water inside, not food.

"You wash first, and I'll wash after you finish." Aunt Wang said to her daughter-in-law, and continued to sit in front of the stove and light a fire.

After the two of them finished bathing and went out, Zhao Ganwei stood at the door of the main room with an angry look on his face, "What's wrong with you two? Shouldn't you light the fire and cook first after work? Why did you take a bath first? Is the whole family waiting for you to take a bath before cooking?"

Aunt Wang said to her daughter-in-law, "You should go to bed first. You still have to make pork floss tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work."

Mrs. Wu nodded, not daring to look at her father-in-law's dark face, and ran into the house.

Her husband in the room was looking at her with dissatisfaction, "Wife, what's wrong with you? I was waiting for a long time with an empty stomach, and you guys were cooking?"

She didn't dare to raise her voice to her father-in-law, but she dared to speak to the people in her room. Wu rolled her eyes and said, "Do you not have to eat if my mother and I don't come back? Do you only feel tired when you work, but my mother and I don't feel tired when we work?"

Zhao Dali didn't expect that just because he made a complaint, his wife's resentment was even greater than his own.

"What did I say wrong? Whose wife doesn't cook and leaves the men hungry, but only cares about herself when she boils water for a bath?"

Mrs. Wu originally thought that cooking after work was not a big deal, at most it would just be a little tiring.

But when did she become unable to tolerate her husband's self-righteous attitude?

"It's said that men work outside and women work inside. Now we both go out to work and earn money, so why do I have to do the laundry, cook and serve you when I come back? Don't tell me I don't earn money to go home? If I didn't go out to work and you came back from working hard outside, I would naturally have no complaints, but look at you like this!"

Mrs. Wu's voice became louder and louder. "Can't you serve me for once? Isn't my work hard? Are men the only ones who work the hardest and need the most love? You are made of flesh and I am also made of flesh. I will be tired when I come back from work! Why should I serve you and wash your clothes and cook for you?"

Zhao Dali was spitted all over his face and stammered, "If you have something to say, just say it nicely. Stop crying."

Stop crying?

Did she cry?

Wu reached out and touched her face, and felt something wet.

So she was feeling wronged?

Why would you cry if you don’t feel wronged?
