Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family - Chapter 459 - Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Sharp-tongued

Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Sharp-tongued
The next day, Liu Sisi got up early.

The old woman and the married woman were also up early, kneading dough in the kitchen.

Liu Sisi took over her work, quickly steamed some steamed buns, and also wrapped some buns. Afterwards, she fried some simple dishes in another pot, made a portion of deep-fried pork, and a cabbage stewed with rice noodles, plated them, and put them into the food box. Finally, she scooped a bowl of stewed meat from the bonfire and stacked the layers of the food box.

This was the food promised to the medicine pageboy yesterday, which naturally had to be delivered early today.

Looking back at the meat porridge being stewed separately in the stewing pot, it was already soft and tender, with a little added tonic, which was just right for the patient to eat.

Only then did she fill a bowl and put it on top of the food box. She sealed the food box completely, picked up the umbrella beside her, and turned back to explain to the others.

“The food in the stewing pot is prepared for my father, so when he wakes up, you can serve it to him.”

“Yes, Madam.”

“Also, when the Old Master has eaten and is ready to go out, remember to wrap up some buns for him to carry with him, so he doesn’t go hungry.”

“Yes, Madam.”

“And when the Young Master wakes up, remember to help him pack his school bag, and you, Le Ping, remind him to take care of the Young Master.”

“Yes, Madam.”

“And also…”

“Sisi, didn’t you say you wanted to go earlier? Why are you still here?”

Di Yelei had already come in from outside, holding a mane brush in his hand, apparently having brushed the jujube red horse, and looked at Liu Sisi with a puzzled expression.

“Ah! It’s getting late, I need to go.”

Liu Sisi hurried out of the house and went straight to the clinic.

Her face turned red, and she had really become an old mother, taking a long time to leave the room. Was it because she was pregnant? Even her temper had changed a lot.

The medicine pageboy had been waiting at the clinic early on, and as soon as he saw Liu Sisi carrying the food box, he rushed across the street, almost running into a vendor carrying a carrying pole, which made the vendor curse loudly.

The medicine pageboy still laughed hehe: “Aunt, you really came, hehe, let me see what delicious food you have brought.”

As he spoke, he pretended to steal the food box.

Liu Sisi hurriedly hid the food box behind her: “Don’t mess around! Old He hasn’t eaten yet, and you want to steal food? You’re asking for a beating!”

“Ah! — Not really?”

The medicine pageboy had a bitter gourd face and insisted: “I just want to try it, just a taste!”

“Not even half allowed, it’s so cold outside, and if opened for a while, it’ll get cold. Hurry up and go inside!”

As she spoke, she carried the food box into the clinic.

It was still early, and there were not many people in the clinic. Liu Sisi opened the food box, took out the meat porridge on the surface, and covered the box again before handing it to the medicine pageboy.

“Go! You can have it. I’ll take the porridge to my Aunt.”

After saying that, she picked up the porridge.

“Pooh! It’s so virtuous. If I, the medicine pageboy, could marry such a virtuous daughter-in-law in the future, how wonderful that would be…”

After saying that, he also took the food box and went to the back hall with a swaying gait.

Mother Zuo apparently had woken up, her dim old eyes were open, and she was groping around, trying to find something.

Liu Sisi hurriedly went to help her: “Auntie, what are you looking for? Let Sisi help you.”

“My girl, you’re here. You’re here so early. Don’t worry about me, I just want a drink of water…” Mother Zuo’s spirit seemed to be better, and there was a bit of a smile on her face.

“Auntie, let me pour it for you!”

While speaking, she didn’t give the other party a chance to refuse, she directly poured half a bowl of water, carefully cooled it, and handed it to her mouth: “Here, Auntie, have a drink.”

Mother Zuo was obviously thirsty, and she drank all of the half-bowl of water before putting the bowl down.

“My girl, your name is Sisi? Our Yu Er used to have a fiancée named Si Er. But she wasn’t as kind-hearted as you are.”

Speaking of this, Mother Zuo even seemed a bit resentful.

Liu Sisi’s hand paused slightly before continuing to scoop the meat porridge. How was she supposed to respond to this?

Mother Zuo didn’t notice Liu Sisi’s change, and instead continued to complain.

“That Si Er relied on her good embroidery skills and never took others seriously, let alone broke off her engagement with our Yu Er because she was greedy for wealth, and shamelessly climbed up to…”

“Cough, cough! Auntie, this is the meat porridge I just made. I put some nourishing medicinal materials in it. You should eat it soon!”

Liu Sisi interrupted her.

Seeing that the other person was a patient, and also blind, she didn’t want to argue with her.

But anyone would find it unbearable to hear such things from someone in front of them, right? Interrupting the other party’s words and not scolding them was already quite commendable!

“Alright, alright! Girl, let me do it.”

Mother Zuo groped for the bowl: “You’re such a good-hearted person, with a lovely voice and excellent cooking skills. Moreover, you take care of this blind old woman. It’s really hard to find someone as kind as you… ”

Liu Sisi was quite amused. Was Mother Zuo praising her? Or being sarcastic?

If she wasn’t sure the other party couldn’t see her looks, she might have thought Mother Zuo was using irony!

Thinking about it, life is indeed full of irony sometimes!

In the following days, Liu Sisi delivered food to Mother Zuo every day. Naturally, she also brought meals to Old He along the way.

Old He indeed had a picky taste. One day, Liu Sisi was too busy to cook and asked Ms. Gao to help stir-fry some vegetables, which she then put in the food box and brought over. To Liu Sisi’s surprise, Old He took a bite of the vegetables and immediately spat them out.

“Ptui! Ptui! What is wrong with today’s vegetables? Sisi, this dish wasn’t made by you, was it?” Old He asked pointedly.

“This… I had something to do earlier, so I asked Ms. Gao to help stir-fry the vegetables…”

Liu Sisi casually said as she picked up some clean bamboo chopsticks and took a bite. She couldn’t find any difference in taste! How did Old He taste it? It’s quite strange!

“Hmph! Do you think you can deceive my experienced taste? The food you cook has a heavenly sweetness, while this dish has a bitter taste. It’s clearly not made by your hand. Old He isn’t so old that he can’t even taste the difference!” Old He huffed.

Liu Sisi tasted again but still couldn’t find any difference. She could only assume that Old He’s taste buds were different from others!

However, after that, Liu Sisi made all the meals she sent to the clinic herself.

After returning home, Liu Sisi mentioned the matter to Di Yelei by chance. Unexpectedly, Di Yelei laughed aloud after hearing it.

“I agree with Old He, the dishes you make are indeed delicious! Haha…”
