Chapter 94 Croton Flour

"If you are Dabao's friend, please call me aunt." Xu Miaomiao said.

This kid, Li Yi, has done a lot of things for her these days. His help is indispensable for testing and ordering dishes.

Xu Miaomiao was relieved that this child was sensible.

"Aunt Xu." Li Yi smiled slightly, looked at Xu Miaomiao and called out.

"You are very talented in cooking. Do you want to learn cooking with me?" Xu Miaomiao looked at the boy in front of her and asked.

"Really!" Li Yi also looked at Xu Miaomiao in surprise. He had tasted the dishes cooked by Xu Miaomiao, but they were delicious. He never thought that he would have the opportunity to learn a thing or two.

"Of course it's true." Xu Miaomiao smiled amused by his appearance and looked at him solemnly and explained: "You are very talented, you shouldn't waste it, right?"

Li Yi immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Miaomiao: "Master, please bow to me as a disciple."

"Okay, get up quickly." Xu Miaomiao said and quickly helped the person on the ground up.

"I'll give you two choices. First, you can open your own shop and work on your own. Second, you can learn from me and help in my shop. You choose one."

Li Yi looked tangled and hesitant.

There are too many uncertainties in the first choice, and obviously the second one is safer.

The little boy frowned tightly, as if he had encountered some big problem.

After two sentences, he looked at Xu Miaomiao with firm eyes and ears and said: "I want to open my own shop, and I also want to open my own shop like Master."

"Okay!" Xu Miaomiao looked at the boy and was relieved. It was indeed the child she had chosen who had ambition.

After this recognition, Li Yi became more serious in his subsequent work.

Xu Miaomiao first asked him to be responsible for some simple food preparation, but the child learned very quickly.

Later, I also learned how to make some basic dishes, and I had a bit of a taste of Miao Miao cooking.

"Come on, happy New Year!"

Xu Miaomiao raised her wine glass and saluted the people in front of her.

This is not her first year in this world, but it is their first Spring Festival.

Looking at the people on the table, Xu Miaomiao felt satisfied in her heart.

"Happy New Year!"

Everyone toasted to celebrate, and as the fireworks rose outside, the family stood outside and watched the fireworks in the sky.

The woman at the corner clenched her fingers. When Song Yingying saw their happy faces, she could always think of the suffering her family suffered in that old house. She must not let it go easily!

"Miaomiao, good night."

It was already dark, and after watching the fireworks, Gu Yuanniang said goodbye to Xu Miaomiao and went back to the house to rest.

"Yeah." Xu Miaomiao nodded and walked towards the kitchen.

She always had a bad feeling, so she had to go to the kitchen to take a look. After all, the whole village was having dinner together tomorrow, so nothing could go wrong.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw Li Yi washing vegetables.

A small light stretched the boy's shadow long.

Seeing the boy's serious look, Xu Miaomiao asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I want to come and see again." Li Yi looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "The whole village will come tomorrow, and we must not make any mistakes."

Xu Miaomiao happily patted the boy's shoulder, as he really thought about her.

Li Yi was responsible for checking the vegetables, while Xu Miaomiao looked at the meat to see if there was anything abnormal.

"It should be fine." Xu Miaomiao clapped her hands and said, "Go back and have a rest early."

Just as he was about to leave, Li Yi stopped the woman: "Master!"

As he spoke, he picked up the broccoli on the side and said, "There are some small powders on this broccoli."

"What!" Xu Miaomiao was shocked. Tomorrow there will be a dish called stir-fried broccoli. Xu Miaomiao immediately took the broccoli and checked it.

Some small powder did appear on the top of the green vegetables. When he pinched the small powder and smelled it, Xu Miaomiao was surprised: "It's croton powder."

This dish will be served to the villagers tomorrow. Who knows how to cook bean noodles?

Li Yi sniffed the air, which aroused Xu Miaomiao's curiosity: "What's wrong?"

"I just smelled something in the air, and it's even stronger here."

"What is the taste."

"It's the fragrance of white magnolia, not very strong." Li Yi responded.

Xu Miaomiao was surprised. Apart from Song Yingying, she really couldn't think of anyone who would use magnolia as a spice and add croton powder to the dish.

"Master, there will be one less dish tomorrow, so why not use yam instead?"

Li Yi spoke.

"Yam is difficult to handle. I'm afraid we have to get up early tomorrow." Xu Miaomiao responded.

"It doesn't matter." Li Yi shook his head: "Mr. Nangong also asked us to get up early when we practiced before. It doesn't matter."

Xu Miaomiao nodded and accepted Li Yi's suggestion.

But before that, she had to do one more thing to prevent anyone from making trouble.

"Dangdangdang-"

Early the next morning, Xu Miaomiao immediately knocked on the door of the original house.

"Who is it?" Zhang Ru said dissatisfiedly, put on her clothes and went out to open the door.

When she saw her, Xu Miaomiao thought the other party was here to admit her mistake, and immediately said in a strange tone: "Who do I think she is? It turns out to be my niece-in-law."

"Madam." Xu Miaomiao pretended to salute respectfully and said, "Today is the afternoon when everyone comes to my house for dinner. Madam, please remember the time and don't miss it."

"Hey, I've long heard that you were going to hold a flowing banquet. I thought we wouldn't have a share in it, but you're so sensible!"

After saying that, Zhang Ru agreed: "We will go."

Xu Miaomiao nodded with a knowing smile, turned around and left.

Today there is a flowing water feast, but not in the afternoon, but at noon.

By the time their family arrived, everyone had already finished eating and was ready to leave, so naturally there would be no trouble.

"Mother, are you telling the truth?" Song Yingying asked in disbelief: "Then Xu Miaomiao really invited us to her banquet?"

"Of course it's true." Zhang Ru raised her chin and said proudly: "She came to the door in person today to say it."

"Why do I feel that something is not right about this matter?" Song Yingying walked around and looked at Zhang Ru when Fang Zhonglai met, but she still said uneasy: "No, we have to go and inquire again."

Zhang Ru grabbed Song Yingying and prevented her from leaving: "What are you asking about? Those people around us are not even willing to talk to us, so why bother asking for trouble? This Xu Miaomiao must be afraid. After all, your father will be

Someone who wants to be a high official, and we are her elders, naturally she has to be obedient."

"Okay." Song Yingying relaxed her heart, pulled Zhang Ru and warned: "Mom, don't forget not to eat broccoli."

"ok, ok, I got it."

Zhang Ru agreed perfunctorily and squirmed back to the house. She got up early today and needed to catch up on her sleep.

The family was waiting to go to Xu Miaomiao's place for a big meal in the afternoon, and then naturally stayed there.

But I never thought that the party had already started.
