Rain Babbling Last Night - C93
“Ling Ling, why did you come to learn Xiang Cai?” The lady crossed her arms and sized Yu Lingling up. Yu Lingling seemed to not have realized it, and was only looking at the woman, somewhat confused.
“Ling Ling, tell me, why did you learn to cook Xiang Cai?” The woman did not answer her, but continued to ask this question. Seeing that the woman was not willing to explain, Yu Lingling did not ask anymore, but only replied, “I have a friend who likes to eat Xiang Cui a lot, but now that I’m arguing with him, he has always been unwilling to forgive me, so I wanted to …”
As Yu Lingling finished speaking, his voice became softer and softer, until at the end, his voice was so soft that only he could hear it herself. However, to the woman, that was already enough. Yu Lingling’s slightly red face had already told her everything.
“Mm, I understand.” “The lady smiled.” Mistress, it’s not what you think. ” Yu Lingling looked at her Mistress who was smiling dubiously, and immediately retorted with a red face.
“Haha, Ling Ling, there’s no need to explain. Your mistress might not have any other abilities, but it just so happens that what I’m most proficient in is Xiang Cai.” The woman smiled proudly, as if she was reminiscing about the past.
“What?!” “Forgive her, she is unable to react in time.” Mistress, what did you say just now? ” Yu Lingling immediately grabbed the woman’s clothes and exclaimed.
“Cough cough” The lady was grabbed by Yu Lingling until she was unable to breathe. “Ahh, sorry, I was too excited. I’m really sorry.” Yu Lingling immediately let go of the lady, and she took deep breaths the moment she felt relaxed.
“Alright, alright. I’ve finally seen it.” The woman could not help but ask. This girl, she was so excited.
“Mistress, I’m sorry. About that, can you teach me how to cook Xiang Cuisine?” Yu Lingling suddenly came over and blinked her eyes as she looked at the woman acting cute.
“About that, just don’t come over.” The woman smiled, but didn’t dare to get too close to her. Yu Lingling was startled, and also knew that she had frightened her just now. Therefore, she calmed herself down for a moment and said, “Um, sorry, I was too agitated just now. Don’t worry, I have no problems now, I won’t lose control again.”
“Alright, I won’t say anymore. Come and cook for me tonight.” The woman smiled. Hearing that, Yu Lingling knew that her mistress had decided to teach him how to cook, so she nodded her head without hesitation.
Both of them smiled at each other.
“Ling Ling, is the food ready?” “No one knows how long it was before the woman sat at the table and called out helplessly.” “Wait, wait.” Yu Lingling was in the kitchen, coughing non-stop as she answered.
“The woman could not wait any longer, so she got up and walked to the kitchen to check on Yu Lingling’s progress. Ling Ling, ah! Ling Ling, what are you doing!? ” The woman couldn’t help but yell out.
“Mistress?” What is it? Why did you come in? Go out and take a seat, I’ll bring it out when I’m done. ” Yu Lingling turned her head to look at her surprised mistress and laughed.
“Ling Ling, you …” The woman stammered as she looked incredulously at Yu Lingling, whose face was completely black. “Hmm?” Yu Lingling tilted her head and asked with her eyes, “What’s wrong?” The woman didn’t answer, she just calmly turned around and left.
Yu Lingling was startled, she shrugged her shoulders to show that she did not understand. She turned back to her cooking business.
“Ling Ling, don’t be busy anymore. Take it and look.” In a moment, the lady walked in from the outside and gave the thing in her hands to Yu Lingling.
“Ah?” “Oh!” Yu Lingling did not understand, but what her master’s mother said was like an imperial decree, so even if she did not understand, she still obediently picked up the little thing and looked at it.
Ah!” Yu Lingcun was startled, and immediately shouted loudly. The woman hugged her chest and smiled at Yu Li who was shouting loudly, and said calmly, “How is it? Does it look good?
“This …” Yu Lingling looked at her reflection in the mirror in disbelief. She bit her lips tightly and said, “About that, I, I …” “Alright, I know that you definitely haven’t used these things before, so you don’t really need them. Come, let me start the fire. You can do it.” The woman also smiled mischievously.
When Yu Lingling heard her master’s mother’s words, she immediately laughed out loud. Now, she no longer had to worry about whether or not the fire would burn anymore! ” “Thank you, Mistress!”
“There’s no need to be polite. Come on, let’s hurry up. I’m hungry, we still need to go and farm tomorrow. If we sleep too late tomorrow, we won’t have much energy left.” The woman smiled as she sat in front of the fire. The bright red light of the fire reflected off the woman’s yellowish face, giving it an indescribable warmth.
Yu Lingling didn’t know what to say, and only fiercely nodded her head.
“Mistress, it’s already prepared, come eat quickly.” Not long after, Yu Lingling called out. “Alright, I’ll be right there.” The woman laughed when she heard Yu Lingling’s shout.
Yu Lingling made all three dishes out of the food and the woman sat opposite to Yu Lingling. Yu Lingling nervously looked at the woman and said, “Master’s mother, quickly try it and see how I cook.” “Sure.” The woman picked up her chopsticks and savored all three dishes.
“How is it?” Yu Lingling stared at the lady in anticipation. The woman looked at Yu Lingling, but did not say anything. Yu Lingling nervously stared at her, but was unable to get her reply.
“Alright!” The woman gave a simple “En” before becoming silent again. She looked at her with a stern expression. Yu Lingling was so shocked that she started sweating profusely.
“Very good.” “When the woman saw Yu Lingling being so nervous, she could not help but laugh and say calmly. “WHAT?!” Yu Lingling was startled, she could not react in the slightest, “Mistress, what did you just say?”
“I said, not bad.” The woman replied with a smile. Yu Lingling was so excited that she almost jumped up happily, “Really?!” It’s true! ” The lady smiled and nodded her head earnestly, it could be considered as her affirmation of Yu Lingling.
“Really! That’s great! “Then, Mistress, can I learn to cook Xiang Cuisine now?” Yu Lingling was very happy, what could be more happy than being able to obtain her wife’s hands.
“You can’t do it now,” The lady lightly knocked on Yu Lingling’s head, “You are too anxious, how can you be direct from the start, tomorrow, I will go out to farm, so you, cook for me at home, understand?”
“Oh.” Hearing his master’s mother’s words, the disappointed look on Yu Lingling’s face disappeared in a flash. However, thinking about it, it made sense.
“Alright, let’s eat!” Yu Lingling said happily while holding the chopsticks. The two of them finished all the three dishes in a moment.
After finishing her meal, Yu Lingling tidied up the table, looked at the television and felt that it was boring, so she got his master’s wife to arrange a room for him, washed up, and went to rest.
On the morning of the second day, before Yu Lingling had even woken up, the woman had already gone out to farm. Seeing that it was already ten o’clock in the morning, Yu Lingling lazily got up from the bed. Seeing that there was no one in the room, she knew that his wife had already left home to eat, and found something cold for him to eat. There was nothing she could do, she just couldn’t start a fire, so she could only eat something cold …
In the afternoon, they spent an hour before successfully lighting the fire. Helpless, they could only make some simple salad …
“Ling Ling, is lunch ready?” The moment the woman returned home, she called out after putting down the things in her hands. At this time, she should get up no matter what.
“It’s here, it’s here!” Mistress, you’re back! ” “Yu Lingling came out to welcome him with a smile. “Mistress, please wash your hands and come in for lunch.” Yu Lingling looked at the woman awkwardly, but her heart was in turmoil, she did not know if her master would be able to accept what she had done.
The woman looked at Yu Lingling who had a strange expression, and could not help but be surprised. As she walked into the room, she asked, “Ling Ling, what happened to you? You seem to have something on your mind. ”
“No, no!” Upon hearing her mistress’s words, Yu Lingling’s face became even more stiff. “But …” But what? ” The woman was a little surprised, but she didn’t know what Yu Lingling wanted to say. She could only say, “If you want to say something, just say it, why are you hesitating to say it?”
“This …” Yu Lingling really did not know what she should say. “Um, Mistress, you will know when you get inside.” “Fine.” Seeing that Yu Lingling was not willing to speak, the lady walked into the room suspiciously. As soon as she entered the room, her eyes swept across the dining table. She couldn’t help but be startled.
“Oh my god!” The lady looked at the big plate on the table in horror. “Shee hee …” Yu Lingling embarrassedly touched his head and said, “Mistress, I can’t light a fire, so I can’t cook … So I had to make a salad… ” Yu Lingling looked at the master’s mother in front of him who had already become somewhat petrified, and couldn’t help but become more and more unconfident. In the end, only she herself could hear her own voice.
“Ling Ling…” The woman’s voice was somewhat dry. She looked at the salad in front of her, not knowing what to say. The woman looked at Yu Lingling and shook her head helplessly, “Um, I still have to go to the fields in the afternoon, I can’t eat this. “Ai, come on. I’ll start the fire and you can cook.”
“Good!” “Thank you, Mistress!” “When Yu Lingling heard the woman’s suggestion, she was so happy that her mouth couldn’t even close. “However, you have to hurry up, I still need to hurry up and go farm. If I don’t hurry up and finish it today, it will affect this year’s harvest.” The woman looked at Yu Lingling and said weakly. Yes, how could she have forgotten that she couldn’t start a fire herself?
“With the woman’s help, Yu Lingling managed to prepare a simple lunch within half an hour. Master, it’s done. We can eat now. ” Yu Lingling said.
Yu Lingling and the woman had a simple lunch. When the woman saw that Yu Lingling had already cleaned up the table, she turned to Yu Lingling and said, “Ling Ling, wait for me to come back before cooking dinner. Also, I brought some ingredients back with me today.
“Oh, mistress, do you mean that you can teach me how to cook?” Yu Lingling immediately came in front of the woman and laughed happily.
