The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 414 I can’t think of a chapter name (2)

 After Mo Qingze took his seat, the others also sat down in the original order. Mo Yan picked up the rice bowl and was about to eat. When she saw Tang Xin standing aside awkwardly with her fingers twisted and not serving the table, she pointed to a few empty chairs by the wall and said, "Tang Xin, there are no outsiders here. You can bring a chair and join us." Eat it!”

Tang Xin was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands in a panic and said, "No, no, I'll just eat it later."

She understood her identity, and when she went to the Yamen to change her registration, she would become a slave of the Mo family. Although she didn't know what rules a slave should follow, she also knew that a slave couldn't eat at the same table as his master.

Mo Yan didn't know what she was thinking. Just when she was about to speak, Xin'er got off the table first, pushed her onto her chair without any refusal, and put the rice bowl and chopsticks into her hands: "The food will be cold after a while. Okay, my family doesn’t have so many rules, so you can just eat in peace!"

Tang Xin was sitting on pins and needles, almost unable to hold her chopsticks steady. It was only after Mo Qingze spoke a few gentle words of persuasion that she carefully picked up her rice bowl.

 Just looking at a bowl full of snow-white rice, she couldn't bear to eat it.

　　Whether it was before or after the escape, the Tang family's life was always difficult. White rice would only appear on the table during holidays. But since Tang Xin's biological mother passed away and Tang Yu entered the Tang family, she has not eaten a single grain. Until now, she only knows that the rice is fragrant and soft, but she has forgotten how to make it fragrant and soft.

"What are you thinking about? Eat it quickly, otherwise it won't taste good when it gets cold!" Seeing Tang Xin in a daze, Xin'er touched her quietly with her arm, gave her a large piece of chopsticks and stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, urging her to eat it quickly. .

The fragrant fried meat was very tempting, and Tang Xin swallowed unconsciously. She tilted her head and smiled, then took a mouthful of rice in her mouth.

The rice tasted more fragrant and softer than she had imagined. She couldn't wait to take the second and third bite... Gradually, she let go of her previous restraint and piled up what Xin'er gave her like a mountain. The food was all eaten. This meal was the most delicious and satisfying meal she had ever had in her memory.

After dinner, Tang Xin rushed to clear the dishes, and no one else tried to catch up with her. Seeing that the dark clouds covering the sky had dispersed and the sky was getting brighter, they all picked up shovels and brooms to clear the snow in the yard.

Tang Xin washed the dishes and tidied the kitchen, then took the tools and joined in. Although she is the same age as Xiner Li Yan, under Tang Yushi's training, her hands and feet are extremely nimble and she can shovel snow very quickly. Several children were so excited that they competed with her, and they were much faster than in the morning.

With everyone’s efforts, the snow in the front yard was cleared by evening. What is gratifying is that a fiery red sunset appeared in the western sky, and the colorful sunset decorated the blue sky with extraordinary beauty. Obviously, the heavy snow that has been falling for half a month has finally stopped, and tomorrow will be a sunny day. !

In the evening, Mo Yan cooked, using pork bone soup as the soup base, and cooked a large pot of meat-flavored hand-rolled noodles, sprinkled with green vegetables and chopped green onions, and served with appetizers of different flavors. It was delicious, nutritious, and stomach-warming. Warm up.

As soon as the noodles were cooked and put on the table, the three beasts stepped on the rice and slipped in through the side door quietly in the darkness of night, not wanting to bump into Tang Xin who was going out to the latrine. Beasts have a strong sense of territory. Now that a stranger suddenly appears in the territory, the first reaction of the three beasts is to attack.

Tang Xin only knew that the Mo family had a very humane dog, but had no idea that the dog was a majestic snow wolf. At this time, three huge beasts' eyes glowed green, and they all roared angrily at her. Tang Xin was completely stunned. She wanted to loudly inform others that there was a beast, but no sound came out from her throat. Come.

　　In the end, the strange roars of the three beasts alarmed the people in the house, and this was how a very likely tragedy was avoided!

Although Xin'er patiently introduced the three beasts to her who was still in shock, how smart and well-behaved the three beasts were, and even though the three beasts were as docile as kittens in front of Mo Yan, Tang Xin was still very afraid, and ate every meal with trepidation, for fear of one Accidentally, three beasts got violent and hurt people.

After eating, Tang Xin couldn't wait to get into the kitchen with the bowls and chopsticks in her arms. She temporarily avoided the gazes of the three beasts that were staring at her intentionally or unintentionally. When she saw her scooping the water from the water tank into the pot, she poured it into the pot. After washing in cold water, Xin'er, who followed, quickly stopped her: "We warm up the frozen hands before washing them, so they are easier to clean."

As she spoke, she stuffed a handful of pine feathers into the stove where there was still a dark flame, and picked up the cattail leaf fan on the side to fan herself. After a while, the pine needles were ignited and burned brightly. I threw a few dry firewood in and the fire crackled.

Tang Xin watched blankly from the side until the water in the pot was hot and Xiner rolled up her sleeves to wash the dishes before she came to her senses and quickly stepped forward to help wash them together. The warm hot water warmed her originally cold hands, making her unable to help but crave the warmth.

 In the past, when she was at home, no matter how cold the weather was, whether it was washing dishes or washing clothes, Tang Yushi never allowed Tang Xin to waste firewood and boil hot water for washing. Over the years, even in the hot summer, her hands and feet are still cold, which makes it even worse in winter.

Even though she had been in Mo's house for less than a day, everything in Mo's house made her feel warmer than ever before. Regarding the future, she suddenly lost her previous hesitation and uneasiness.

While the two of them were washing dishes, Mo Yan and Li Xiu's aunt and nephew went to the front yard. After cleaning up a vacant room, they took a bed, table and wardrobe from the warehouse where the furniture was stored and put it in, planning to give it to Tang Xin. . The room was right next door to where Aunt Li Xiu and her nephew slept. Although the area was not large, it was definitely spacious for one person.

Sitting on the soft bed, touching the brand new quilt, no one knew how uneasy Tang Xin felt!

That woman dreamed of living in a spacious and solid blue brick house. She talked with her cowardly father countless times about how beautiful the Mo family’s yard was with an envious and jealous tone. She even fantasized about one day living in a house like Mo’s. For a large courtyard like this, hire a few long-term workers to grow vegetables in the east courtyard, raise pigs in the south courtyard, raise chickens in the west courtyard, and raise cattle in the north courtyard, and become a wealthy landowner's wife!

However, no matter how much that woman longs for it, she can still only stay in the thatched house that leaks from all directions, sleep on the cold and musty bedding, count the rice grains to put into the pot every day, and feel distressed for wasting a grain for most of the day... Thinking of these, The resentment that had accumulated for many years deep in Tang Xin's heart had calmed down a lot!

 Looking at the swaying lights, a smile appeared on her face! That woman can no longer control her destiny. As long as she no longer comes to trouble her, she will not take the initiative to seek revenge. Instead of working hard for an unworthy person, it is better to do her best for the Mo family. In the future, she will never Worse than in the Tang family...
