Chapter 232 Sister, your cooking is so delicious
When Li Zhengzhi saw Li Mingxia looking at him, his eyes were obviously evasive, and he avoided her almost instantly, looking very panicked.
Li Mingxia frowned. This was strange. Although he had punished Li Zhengzhi and his gang for spreading rumors before, that was a long time ago. And now they were still in the Li family's old house. Was Li Zhengzhi really that scared?
and……
Li Mingxia lowered his head and took a look at the food in front of him. Wasn't it because Li Zhengzhi was greedy for these things when he spoke to him just now? Why didn't he feel greedy after taking a look at them now?
Thinking of what Zhang said yesterday, Li Mingxia looked at Li Zhengzhi with some suspicion in his eyes.
"You've made so many fancy dishes so early in the morning? Can your mother eat them all?" Jin was also envious when looking at the food here. She thought that she didn't eat so well even during festivals. It seemed that Li Mingxia's family eats like this every day. How could people not be envious?
Li Mingxia now thinks that Li Zhengzhi is very suspicious, and his patience with Jin, which was already limited, instantly becomes zero.
"Do you need to worry about whether my mother can finish her meal?" Li Mingxia glanced at Jin coldly, "What's wrong? Did you do it? Or did you spend money? When did it become someone else's turn to make decisions about our family affairs? Even if my mother can't finish her meal, you don't need to worry about it. Just cook your own meal and don't talk to me here."
Li Mingxia's attack power reached a qualitative leap at this time. In the past, due to some tacit rules of this era, Li Mingxia had to "swallow his anger" most of the time. With this excuse in the past two days, Li Mingxia had vented all his previous temper.
"You haven't even given me the two hundred coins for today, and you're already using our stove?" Old Mrs. Zheng stared at Li Mingxia and said unhappily.
She said this not with the intention of speaking up for Jin, she really was just thinking about her own two hundred coins.
Li Mingxia threw a small purse that she had prepared long ago to Mrs. Zheng, "Count it in front of me. If there is nothing wrong, tell me. Don't take the money now and come out later to tell me that there is a hundred coins missing. No amount of money can make up for it."
Li Mingxia's words were harsh, but Mrs. Zheng was indeed that kind of person and had indeed done those things, so it was not to be said that she was wronged.
Old Mrs. Zheng was about to put the purse into her arms, but when she heard what Li Mingxia said, she paused and opened the purse reluctantly, cursing.
"I don't know where you learned these tricks at such a young age. I'm already so old, how can I still care about your little things?"
Not only did Li Mingxia feel disgusted by what Old Lady Zheng said, but even Jin and Hua felt sick after hearing it.
"That's right, hurry up tomorrow, don't wait for me to ask for it. You eat delicious food every day, but you still ask me for two hundred coins. I don't know how you behave. If it were someone else's house, let alone two hundred coins, let alone respecting the elderly, just letting your mother live here is a huge favor, which can't be calculated with money." Old Mrs. Zheng has always been far ahead in the field of moral kidnapping and has no rivals. At this moment, she became more and more excited, happier, and more and more she felt that what she said made sense. Li Mingxia even felt that if he ignored everything and let her continue talking, she would soon come to the conclusion that he should give her hundreds or thousands of taels of silver.
"Have you forgotten where my mother fell? If you think this is a favor, let's go out and talk about it. Let's go to the yamen. I don't believe it. There is no place to reason!" Li Mingxia raised his voice at the right time. Li Zhengpin, who was chopping wood with Li Erlang outside, pushed open the kitchen door with an axe.
"What's wrong, little sister?"
The kitchen fell silent almost instantly. Old Mrs. Zheng, who had been chattering away and even trying to continue talking, now shut her mouth tightly. I don't know if she remembered the kitchen knife in Li Mingxia's hand that day.
"It's okay, brother. I just need to eat. I can't carry it all in one go, so I thought of asking you to call De Ge'er over to help me."
Li Mingxia glanced at the reactions of the people in the Li family's old house, especially Old Lady Zheng and Li Zhengzhi. The two of them looked at Li Zhengpin as if they had seen a ghost.
Li Mingxia didn't find it funny and his mood improved a lot.
Li Zhengpin looked at the things on the table, then glanced at the people in the Li family's old house. He felt that the distance was indeed far enough and nothing should have happened. He felt relieved and returned to the house to call Li Zhengde.
Li Mingxia could actually carry the food in two trips, and that was his original plan. However, he did not expect Old Lady Zheng and the others to arrive so early. Li Mingxia did not want to put the food he ate at home together with them. What if someone secretly took a bite or did something bad? If they found out later, he would be disgusted for the rest of his life.
Li Zhengde walked in not long after. "Sister, you stay here and look after mother's medicine. My two sisters and I will bring these things in soon. You are not needed."
Only then did Li Mingxia see the two little girls standing behind Li Zhengde. They were not as lively and cheerful as they usually were at home. Instead, they were timid and didn't even dare to look at Old Lady Zheng and the others. It was obvious how scared the two little girls were.
Thinking of this, Li Mingxia began to feel distressed again, "Mingqiu and Mingdong, you two come here."
The two little girls usually listened to Li Mingxia the most. Although they were scared at this moment, they still ran over obediently.
Li Mingxia picked up two pieces of beef and stuffed them into the mouths of the two little girls.
"Is it delicious?" Li Mingxia said with a smile.
The two girls' favorite food is beef. Every time the family cooks beef, no matter it is stewed, roasted, cold, or cooked in any other way, as long as it is beef, the two little girls will definitely eat half a bowl of rice more.
Li Mingxia hadn't made cold beef for a long time. When the two little girls tasted the familiar delicious taste, they suddenly became happy and their eyes narrowed into slits.
"Delicious! Sister, the food you cook is really delicious!" Li Mingdong said immediately.
The little girls can't hide their thoughts, and they immediately show whether they are happy or unhappy. Li Mingxia likes them like this.
Two slices of beef can make him smile, "You two, you little greedy cats, why don't you help your brother with his work!"
