"My mother-in-law, your feet are precious!"

"Mother-in-law, why are you here? Come on, sit in the room!"

"Mom, what are you doing here so early? Is there something going on? Don't scare me!"

Compared with the surprise and enthusiasm of Li Wei's mother and son, Xiu Xiu's first reaction when she came out of the kitchen and saw Cao Bamei appearing in front of her eyes was nervousness.

Why are you nervous?

Let's put it this way, because the timing of Cao Bamei's appearance is abnormal, who's visiting relative comes at the same time as Gastrodia Maliang?

This is just like in modern society. You and your parents will talk on the phone at a certain fixed time. Suddenly one day you receive a call from home at another time and the ringing becomes louder and louder. You will subconsciously

nervous.

What I'm most afraid of is that when the call is connected, the anxious and frightened voices of my family members are heard on the other end: "...Son, are you busy? Let me tell you something, don't be afraid..."

To be honest, that was really scary!

So at this moment, Xiu Xiu saw Cao Bamei appear, and Cao Bamei was out of breath. It was cold in the morning, and the hot breath she exhaled quickly turned into a ball of white air next to her mouth.

This made Xiu Xiu even more anxious and irritable. In a flash of lightning, she had already imagined countless bad images in her mind...

"Mom, what's going on? You should tell me quickly!" Xiuxiu stamped her feet, anxious to the point of tears. Her whole body was tense and stiff, but her heart was beating rapidly.

When Cao Bamei saw Xiuxiu in such a hurry, she thought she was going to a bad place. Cao Bamei still felt very happy in her heart, because it proved that Xiuxiu's heart was still thinking about her mother's side.

Unlike Li Wei's mother and son, the passion between relatives is all superficial.

"Xiuxiu, don't worry, it's okay, everything is fine at home!"

Cao Bamei quickly gave Xiu Xiu a reassurance.

After hearing these words, Xiu Xiu's complexion softened slightly, and at least her heart stopped beating wildly.

"I came here just to see you and brought you a chicken to replenish your health." Cao Bamei lifted the chicken in her hand and shook it.

"By the way, let me tell you something about the Luo family."

"Okay, let's talk in the kitchen. I'm cooking breakfast. Mom, please help me stuff some firewood..."

As soon as Xiuxiu finished speaking, she was interrupted by Mother Li.

"Xiu'er, how can I get your mother to work? I have to invite your mother to the main room for tea!"

"Also, I asked you to stop cooking breakfast. Why can't you kid take time off? Qiao'er, Qiao'er, you can go do the laundry later. Cook breakfast first and leave my mother-in-law to eat together later."

Li Qiaoer, who was at the door of the yard, responded cheerfully, put down the wooden basin in his arms, turned around and walked back, but was rejected by Xiuxiu.

"No, no, no, no, I'm not tired of cooking, let Qiao'er do her own thing!" Xiu Xiu was like a hostess, assigning work to Li Qiao'er.

"My mother is going to help me put in the firewood and keep warm by the fire. I guess she won't have time to have breakfast here, right?" Xiu Xiu asked Cao Bamei again.

Cao Bamei smiled, nodded and said: "Yes, mother-in-law, please stop busying yourself. I came over to talk to my daughter about something and then I have to go back. There is still a lot of trouble at home!"

Mother Li had a regretful expression on her face.

Xiuxiu then ordered Li Wei: "Take my mother's chickens and take them to the chicken coop in the backyard to pen them up, and then deal with them when you are free again."

Li Wei looked at the chicken in Cao Bamei's hand. It was a big chicken. It was a hen. It looked thick and thick, and there must be eggs in its belly. This reminded Li Wei of the chicken that Xiuxiu had brought back from her parents' house the day before yesterday.

That reed chicken soup.

To be honest, he was embarrassed about some things and did not dare to say them to Xiu Xiu.

The best way to eat old hen is to stew it. Never add any auxiliary ingredients when stewing it.

Even with the addition of xianggu, the taste is not that pure and strong.

Not to mention the addition of gastrodia elata, it has a medicinal taste, and when the soup is in your mouth, there is a hint of bitterness when you taste it carefully.

It affected the taste very much, even though he held his nose and drank three large bowls...

But I still hope to be able to stew it.

But at that time, Xiu Xiu went to her parents' house to bring the reed chicken and Gastrodia elata to relieve his headache. It was out of Xiu Xiu's kindness.

So this old hen brought by his mother-in-law, he must discuss it with Xiu Xiu and make sure it is stewed!

However, on the surface, Li Wei could not immediately reach out to pick up the old hen brought by Cao Bamei just because of Xiuxiu's instructions. On the contrary, he took a step back, waved his hand and said, "Mother-in-law, you can come empty-handed. Why bother?"

Do you want to bring chickens? Such a good thing, leave it to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law to replenish their health, they are growing in weight!"

Li Weiniang also nodded from the side and echoed Li Wei's words: "Yes, yes, you can take this chicken back from your mother-in-law. Our family should give you chickens to eat. No, we don't have many chickens at home, and we want to keep them for Xiu Xiu."

Confinement, I can only neglect you, my in-laws..."

Li Weiniang's words not only did not make Cao Bamei dissatisfied, but also made Cao Bamei very happy.

"It's okay, it's okay. Just take good care of my family and don't wrong my grandson. Our family is not short of food and drink."

Cao Bamei directly stuffed the chicken into Li Wei's hand, "Take it to the backyard and lock it up. If you don't want to kill it, give it some water to drink."

Li Wei held a heavy chicken that was still clucking in his hand, and looked at Xiuxiu with inquiring eyes.

Xiu Xiu waved her hand: "Go, go, I'll go back to the kitchen to talk to my mother."

She took Cao Bamei's arm and entered the kitchen.

Cao Bamei saw that porridge was being cooked in a small pot in the kitchen, and there were half-cut sweet potatoes on the eucalyptus board. It seemed that the sweet potato porridge was being cooked.

There was also a small iron pot set up on a stove next to the pot table, and a stool was placed next to the stove.

"Mom, put some firewood in the stove for me. I have to put the egg pancakes here first." Xiuxiu pulled up the stool, sat down next to the stove, poured oil into the small pot, and made a sizzling sound.

After Cao Bamei looked around the kitchen, she turned around and sat down at the mouth of the kitchen.

After stuffing a handful of firewood, the mouth of the stove felt warm.

Cao Bamei hugged her knees with her arms and leaned back against the bundle of firewood at the mouth of the stove, but her eyes were looking at Xiuxiu on the side of the small stove.

Cao Bamei had long accepted the matter of Xiuxiu managing the kitchen.

Previously, she was reminded overtly and covertly not to be so diligent and to take over three meals for the family while she was pregnant, but this girl couldn't listen and even argued with her, saying that cooking was her favorite thing.

She is not tired, and she feels very accomplished in preparing meals for the family.

Cao Bamei had no choice but to endure her heartache and turn a blind eye.

"Xiu, are you free today?" Cao Bamei asked.
