Chapter 653: Chapter 647: Qin Dazui
Qin Dazui couldn’t tell if his ignorance was genuine or feigned. If he really did have control, surely he wouldn’t have to deal with these daughters-in-law having affairs with other n, would he?
Upon returning ho, Qin Lei and his family found a group of freeloaders trailing behind them, but they couldn’t very well just kick them out.
So, Shulan first hid the more valuable items in their room before bringing out one of the packages to share with everyone at their ho. These were all the things that Qin Xue had prepared for Shulan and Lele to eat in the car, but they didn’t eat much.
They brought most of it back untouched, along with so pickles. In order to secure so peace and quiet for the future, it seed they would need to share a bit with these freeloaders or they would never be rid of them.
Shulan couldn’t help but reflect on how difficult it was to get any help from these people when her family was struggling. Now that they had just brought back so goods, however, they were suddenly all too eager to visit. She had never expected there to be so many of them.
“I’m so glad you all have the ti to drop by my place today. We just ca back and don’t have much to offer you, but this is sothing Qin Xue made. She thought the stuff in the car was too expensive, so she made it for Lele and to eat in the car. Please, everyone, enjoy and tell us how it tastes,” Shulan said with a smile.
“Wow, she’s really growing up. Little Qin Xue can cook now! They do say a woman only grows up once she’s married, and I guess it’s true. Even Qin Xue knows her stuff now, so I must definitely try this,” a voice called out from the crowd.
Everyone looked at the source of the voice and saw Mrs. Li, and they couldn’t help but smile. They all knew that she just wanted to make a sour remark because Qin Xue had married a good man.
The mont the food touched Mrs. Li’s lips, she was left speechless. It was genuinely delicious, unlike anything she had ever tasted before. If she tried to complain, everyone else enjoying the food would probably spit on her.
Seeing her reaction, the others also reached out to try a bit and tasted it, and their exclamations of delight filled the air. So even asked if there was more so they could take so ho to their children.
Shulan wanted to kick them all out. What kind of people were these? She had never known the village was full of such people.
Of course, Shulan wouldn’t know. Her family, which had many children and struggled to provide for them, was so poor that they could hardly eat enough. Everybody was afraid that her family would ask them for sothing, so they would never dream of asking Shulan for anything in return.
Now that they saw her children growing up, getting married or making money, they couldn’t resist the urge to visit and take advantage. After all, they all ca from the sa village, right? “I’m really sorry, but Qin Xue made this because she didn’t have enough money to buy us food on the road. So she used her own ingredients to make it.
Lele and I wanted to let her grandparents and her father try it too. That’s why we didn’t eat much and brought it ho. Since you all ca today, we wanted to share it with you. Unfortunately, we don’t have any extras to give away.
But I know how to make it, since I watched Qin Xue make it. I can share the recipe with you, and you can make it for your families at ho…” Shulan proceeded to explain the recipe to them.
Everyone listened in awe, surprised at the expensive ingredients involved – flour, eggs, and oil for frying. Most families wouldn’t be able to afford it, even if they could, they wouldn’t dare to spend so liberally on it.
The people who had asked for more earlier now felt embarrassed, not daring to ask again. After all, why would Shulan share such expensive food with them? None of them would even bring out such a food if they had any; let alone give it away to others.
