Chapter 105 - 105 This Is From My Ah Tao!
105 This Is From My Ah Tao!
“How can that be?” Zhao Lanhua quickly shook her head. “Ah Tao, your culinary skills are too good. I can eat until I’m full every day. Look at my waist. Haven’t I gained a lot of weight? I can’t rest anymore. I think you should be the one who should rest the most!”
“Mother, you’re not fat. Your figure is just right, a full figure means you have great blessings!” Ji Zhao smiled sweetly and comforted her gently.
“You’re getting sweeter and sweeter!” Zhao Lanhua, who was overjoyed by Ji Zhao’s coaxing, tapped the tip of her nose affectionately.
In the end, Ji Zhao left the kitchen obediently.
She thought about it and decided to look for Shen Dashan to ask about the homesteads in the village.
Shen Dashan, who was sharpening scissors in the backyard, was also stunned when he heard Ji Zhao asking about the homestead.
“Why are you asking about this out of the blue?”
“Father, I want to buy a homestead near our house and build a courtyard. After all, Ji Chen will grow up slowly. We can’t always let Shen Yao and Chenchen squeeze in the same room, right?”
“Then why don’t you ask Third Brother to move back, and the two of you, husband and wife, stay in the same room?” Shen Dashan gave a solution without looking up. He didn’t see the discomfort on Ji Zhao’s face at all.
Ji Zhao subconsciously wanted to say that her and Shen Yao had already divorced, but the words changed when they reached her mouth. “Father, now that Eldest Sister-in-law is pregnant, she will definitely come back to stay in the future. Chenchen can only stay for the time being. During the New Year and on holidays, won’t Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law have to come back to stay for a while?”
Only then did Shen Dashan feel that Ji Zhao’s suggestion made sense.
He silently stopped what he was doing and pondered. “Ah Tao, don’t worry about this. I’ll ask the village chief later!”
“Okay!” Ji Zhao instantly beamed with joy. She must earn more money and build a courtyard as soon as possible!
Today was quite free, and the work in the fields was almost done.
Hence, Zhao Lanhua brought Second Sister-in-law Shen, who was pregnant, to the old locust tree at the entrance of the village to take a rest. At the same time, she gossiped with the villagers.
Zhao Lanhua even specially brought some pastries for everyone to try.
“Thank you, Aunt Lanhua,” a young wife with a charming smile teased. “Usually, as long as Second Sister-in-law Shen is around, we don’t dare to look at the pastries you brought. Why has Second Sister-in-law Shen become so generous today?”
“When have I ever been stingy?” Second Sister-in-law Shen pouted angrily. “Shufang, a few days ago, you were eating my salt and pepper pumpkin seeds! Don’t tell me you forgot so quickly?”
“No!” The little wife named Shufang asked with a smile, “Second Sister-in-law Shen, before I went out today, I got a handful of five fragrant broad beans. Do you want to try them?”
Second Sister-in-law Shen subconsciously wanted to nod, but in the end, she shook her head.
“Ah Tao told me to eat less snacks.”
As soon as she said this, the few young wives near her were stunned.
“Second Sister-in-law Shen, why would you listen to Ji Ah Tao? Don’t you know what kind of person she is? When she first married into the Shen family, didn’t she cause a ruckus? She even shamelessly wanted to run away with her adulterer?”
“Aiya, this is all a misunderstanding!” Second Sister-in-law Shen hurriedly said, “You don’t know how good my Ah Tao is! Ah Tao is not only beautiful and kind, but her culinary skills are also top-notch! By the way, look at the pair of silver earrings on my ears. Do they look good?”
“Let me tell you, this is a gift from my Ah Tao!”
