The vegetarian food at Yaowang Temple was very average, not comparable to the food at Jingli Baiweizhai or the food at Ganzhao Temple, but Li Maner ate it with gusto, as if the food was to her liking.
Mrs. Guo saw her eating happily, and she was secretly happy in her heart. She was afraid that you wouldn't eat, so just eat.
"We eldest girls really like the vegetarian food at Yaowang Temple. If you like it, eat more."
Li Man'er is not polite. Only when he is full can he have the strength to play tricks on Guo.
"Perhaps the air in the mountains is good and the vegetables are fresh, so I use more."
Mrs. Guo glanced at Nanny Yu calmly, and the latter understood and quietly retreated.
Li Man'er just pretended not to notice, put down the chopsticks in his hand, took the tea handed to him by Lu Yi and rinsed his mouth.
Aunt Yu came in with two bowls of bean curd. She put the bean curd on the table, placed one bowl in front of Guo and another bowl in front of Li Man'er.
"Girl, the beans used for this bean curd are grown in the temple themselves and soaked in mountain spring water. After the beans are ground, they have a sweet flavor. The master in the temple is clever, adding almonds and milk.
It’s made into desserts, try them.”
Li Man'er knew very well that the highlight was in this bowl of bean curd. She stirred the bean curd with a spoon, with a look of disgust on her face: "Which shop doesn't sell sweet bean curd? Isn't it strange? In Jiangnan, hawkers
Carrying a load, he walks through the streets and sells worthless things."
Aunt Yu had a clever mouth and immediately said: "Young lady, you don't know. These bean curds are not unusual. What's strange is that the beans soaked in this mountain spring water do have a different taste. The water in the south of the Yangtze River is good, unlike in the capital."
, the water is extremely hard. If you take a sip, you might be able to taste a bit of the Jiangnan flavor."
Anyway, no matter what, I just want Li Man'er to eat this tofu pudding. As long as she eats it, everything will be over.
Li Man'er tasted it casually, "There's nothing strange about it, you just want to eat it fresh."
Grandma Yu's heart finally dropped into her stomach, and Mrs. Guo also breathed a sigh of relief. The master and servant exchanged a knowing look, and both felt that it was a success if the matter had reached this point.
Li Man'er ate less than half of the bowl, but her eyelids felt a little heavy. She put down the spoon and yawned, feeling very sleepy.
"What's going on?" Li Man'er shook her head, as if trying to wake herself up, but she was getting sleepier and sleepier, almost lying on the table.
Mrs. Guo was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "You girl is sleepy. Hurry up and help her to the Zen room inside to rest."
Green Yi and Zi Yan didn't hesitate at all, and hurriedly picked up Li Man'er and helped her walk to the inner room.
"Girl, this sleepiness comes all the time."
"You're tired in spring, tired in autumn, and taking a nap in summer?"
Mrs. Guo was worried and asked Nanny Yu to follow her to have a look. Nanny Yu understood and immediately followed her into the inner room.
Zi Yan was taking off Li Man'er's shoes, while Green Yi stood by and fanned Li Man'er.
"Is the eldest girl asleep?"
"Mommy, please be gentler." Zi Yan said with a smile, "Mom, don't be surprised. Our girl got up early and sat in the car for two hours. She is also sleepy after eating."
Grandma Yu looked at Li Man'er steadily and said softly: "It's normal for young people to feel sleepy. Only when you reach our age do you not know how to feel sleepy."
Zi Yan smiled and said, "Mom has been tired for a long time, go and have a rest. Girl, we are here."
But Grandma Yu said: "It's a hot day, you have worked hard, I will send someone to bring you two pieces of watermelon later, so you can cool off too."
"Thank you so much, Grandma." Lu Yi replied with a smile, but she couldn't stop beating her drum in her heart. The girl had told her before she came here, no matter what the wife and Grandma Wang asked them to do, don't resist, just do it.
The girl said that no matter what conspiracy her wife had, she would not let her succeed.
Both Lu Yi and Zi Yan believed that their girls had this ability, so they both carefully cooperated with Guo's master and servant, for fear that their acting would be too fake and expose some flaws.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Guo and Grandma Yu were immersed in the joy of success and did not notice anything wrong.
Grandma Yu carefully looked at Li Man'er to make sure that she was sleeping soundly, and then left the inner room.
Guo couldn't wait to ask, "Are you sleeping?"
Aunt Yu nodded cautiously and said, "I'll prepare some watermelon for them."
Mrs. Guo nodded, with a smile on her face. Those five shops would be hers immediately, and they would be hers rightfully! As long as things were done, the dowry left by Ms. Ning would not be left to chance.
Is she withholding?
Aunt Yu quickly brought the watermelon over. Before she was about to carry it in, she exchanged a look with Mrs. Guo, indicating that everything had been done to reassure Mrs. Guo.
Mrs. Guo nodded, and Grandma Yu carried the watermelon into the inner room.
Zi Yan and Lu Yi were knocked down after eating the watermelon, and both the master and the servant fell asleep.
Aunt Yu patted this one and poked that one to make sure they wouldn't wake up. Then she sneered and walked out of the inner room and reported to Mrs. Guo: "Madam, they are all down."
"Hmph, there are three masters and servants, one is competing against the other stupidly."
"Madam, please go and call Master Yongzhang first?"
"Go for it!"
Aunt Yu quickly called in Guo Yongzhang, who had been arranged in the temple in advance.
As soon as Guo Yongzhang entered the door, he bowed his hand to Guo, "Aunt, my biological aunt, if this happens, I will be your biological son."
Guo Yongzhang was born a little thin, with a sallow complexion and dark circles under his eyes that looked like those of a giant panda. It looked like he had been injured in the drunkenness.
Mrs. Guo was very annoyed when she saw him. This child was happy and lovely when he was a child, but he didn't know how to raise him, but he was indulged in this way. The family life was obviously ordinary, but he behaved like a playboy.
, he also learned to drink flower wine and visit brothels. He was completely useless. Even though he was his nephew, he still looked down upon him.
He is nothing but a piece of trash.
In the past, Ms. Guo might have thought that this piece of trash was of no use at all, but now she feels that the piece of trash in front of her has some use. At least it can get rid of the scourge of Li Man'er for her, and she can also get 50% of her dowry. It really kills two birds with one stone.
Good strategy.
"If you take care of this matter, you will have enough food and drink for the rest of your life, and you won't have to spend all your money."
"Thank you aunt for your kindness. My nephew knows that my aunt loves me the most."
Mrs. Guo signaled Grandma Yu to drag out the two girls who were in the way. Grandma Yu understood the situation and took a few loyal maids to help Li Maner's two maids out.
When Guo Yongzhang saw Green Yi and Zi Yan, his eyes widened and his saliva started to drip.
"Aunt, good aunt, please give me these two girls too. My nephew, I beg you."
Mrs. Guo scolded him and then said: "Li Man'er is the most beautiful woman in the world. If you marry her in the future, her maidservant will be in your room as soon as possible. Are you afraid that you won't have the chance to kiss Fangze? It's important to do business today. If you
No, I’ll find someone else.”
Guo Yongzhang was so frightened that he panicked and said quickly: "Auntie, don't be angry, it's my nephew who is impatient. You are right, you are right."
