Chapter 314: Chapter 310: Making Soup for Him After Washing Hands

——————

Xie Jingzi left the back alley in a fit of rage, her anger far from subsided. But, as she was about to reach the entrance of her own alley, she still hooked up the corners of her mouth, revealing a habitual, shallow smile—

Third Sister-in-law had said that no matter how angry or annoyed she was, she shouldn’t take it out in front of the elders. After all, Dad and Mom were indeed getting on in years. She quite agreed with Third Sister-in-law on this point.

Third Sister-in-law also said that if she couldn’t handle things herself, she should talk to her first. With this understanding, Xie Jingzi could still face her family with a smile on her face—

Before she left the house in the morning, she knew that Third Brother had taken Third Sister-in-law back to his military unit, so no matter how anxious she was, she could only wait for Third Sister-in-law to return before discussing it.

However, as soon as she stepped into the house, she found the family shop in a complete mess, and both her elderly father and mother were sitting on wooden stools, visibly upset, "Dad, Mom, what’s going on?"

It was almost six o’clock, and she didn’t see her fifth brother and the children, only her parents.

As she spoke, she rushed to her mother’s side, only to see Xie Tiesheng soothing Zhou Xiuhua.

"It’s nothing, just your Third Sister-in-law’s mother causing a scene again." Zhou Xiuhua waved her hand, "Don’t mention it to your Third Sister-in-law when she gets back. Now it seems, Ni was right not to acknowledge her mother from the very beginning!"

Zhou Xiuhua was fuming, but for the sake of her own health and the worried look on her husband’s face, she kept reminding herself: don’t get angry, do not lose your temper. The Yan Family only had one senseless woman, everything else was still alright.

Plus, Third Son’s Wife never acknowledged her in-laws, so what was there for her to be angry about?

With this thought, Zhou Xiuhua finally came to terms with the situation and said to her husband:

"Old man, don’t be angry either, our Third Son’s Wife has a clear head, didn’t you see how she didn’t want to acknowledge them at all! Now I think, Ni has the right idea!"

"What do I have to be angry about? I’m just watching you blowing your top!" Xie Tiesheng grumbled unhappily as he glared at her.

If he hadn’t seen his wife so angry that her face was turning blue, would he be anxious? That wasn’t his mother, why the hell would he be worried!

"Was Third Sister-in-law’s idiotic mother here again?" After Xie Jingzi said this, she covered her mouth, turned around to look around, and immediately noticed Zhou Zhenghui in a sedan across the street!

Damn it, an unrelenting pest!

Wasn’t he supposed to give her time to think it over? Indeed, you can never trust the words of an old man!

Xie Jingzi immediately turned her head away as if she hadn’t seen him, her heart thudding violently, and she still tried to pretend to be normal, exaggeratingly saying:

"Mom, about Third Sister-in-law’s unreasonable biological mother, she doesn’t even want to deal with her anymore, so why bother with her? Getting angry over her actions? If you take it seriously, then you’ve already lost!"

Xie Jingzi threw all the words that the Third Sister-in-law usually used to comfort her at her mom, her heart still beating fiercely, turning her little face gradually red.

Luckily with the commotion in the house, Xie Tiesheng and Zhou Xiuhua both thought their daughter was just angry—she was clearly trying to keep them from getting upset, so why was she getting even angrier?

Zhou Xiuhua waved her hand, "Alright, I’m fine now, you and your dad quickly tidy up the tables and chairs in the shop so that your Third Sister-in-law doesn’t notice and start worrying."

"Oh, right! Dad, don’t move, I can do it myself, it’s just two chairs." Xie Jingzi tidied up while noticing that Zhou Zhenghui’s driver even got out of the car, frightening her out of her wits!

"!" Xie Jingzi’s eyes widened as she looked at him.

He just politely nodded without saying anything to Xie Jingzi, but turned to Zhou Xiuhua with a beaming smile and said:

"Old lady, do you remember me? I’m Xiao Wang. My boss thinks your braised meat is delicious and wanted to buy some more for the employees as an extra meal, so pack up all the remaining braised meat for me!"

Watching the limited amount of braised meat, the visitor grandly gestured to buy it all.

"Ai~ alright, alright, it will be ready soon! San’er, quit messing around over there and come give a hand!"

Zhou Xiuhua, upon hearing it was a complete package order, was already annoyed with Qi Chunlan’s sulking! Distracted by the commotion, she realized the busiest sales period was slipping away, and about half of the braised meat was still unsold!

Who would have known, when fortune knocks, no one can hold it back!

"Oh, oh, I’m coming!" Xie Jingzi stood up, and with a lift of her eyes, she glared unwillingly and angrily at the man who rolled down his car window to look over here!

"Hey, young man, what do you do? You sure have a generous boss." Zhou Xiuhua’s mood instantly shifted with business coming in, completely forgetting her previous annoyance.

Xie Tiesheng saw his younger daughter helping out, while he himself took out some butcher paper; with one of them cutting meat and the other weighing it, he couldn’t get a hand in, so he just picked up the stool that had been knocked over. Then, he made a point to wash his hands—

Third Son’s Wife says that doing business requires attention to cleanliness. Even if your food tastes slightly off, people will still come if they see you care about hygiene. Moreover, our braised meat is very delicious, so we must pay even more attention to hygiene to keep business good.

He had also privately asked some young fellows, and they indeed agreed, saying that seeing the person handling money and cutting the meat being different in their shop made them feel it was sanitary and kept them buying here!

"Hey, Uncle, you’ve got good hygiene habits. Seeing your cleanliness makes us feel more at ease eating!"

"Aiyo, young man, you can rest assured about that. My girl personally washed the meat, definitely rinsed with tap water three times, and then scalded with hot water afterwards—it’s absolutely clean."

Zhou Xiuhua became extremely spirited whenever she talked about her business.

"Sir, the total comes to thirty-eight yuan after we weighed everything," Xie Jingzi suddenly spoke up, interrupting her mother who still wanted to chat with the customer.

"Alright, here you go, thirty-eight yuan, right? Here it is."

Wan Song, upon seeing Miss Xie’s glare at him, coupled with the count of the meat money, couldn’t help but feel aggrieved for his own boss:

His boss was strikingly handsome and gave them a bargain, yet she dared to insult his boss outright by calling him ’silly’...uh oh, only the girl in front of him would dare to do that.

As for Miss Yu, she wouldn’t dare be so presumptuous with her own boss.

"Young man, just give it to my old man. My girl still has to cut meat." Xie Tiesheng, seeing this somewhat familiar young fellow staring at his daughter, immediately spoke up.

Thankfully, the young man’s gaze was proper, and he didn’t make any inappropriate moves, so Xie Tiesheng didn’t get angry, but instead reminded him.

"Alright. Here you go, elder." Wan Song, remembering the reasons why his own boss was interested in Miss Xie, was rather polite to Xie Tiesheng.

"Heh, Xiao Wang, I see you often come with another young fellow to buy braised meat. Where do you guys work?"

"Big Sister, we work at the government offices, the family sector isn’t too far from here."

"Wow, you eat from the government’s plate, not bad!" Zhou Xiuhua, hearing that the young man had a decent job, engaged in even more conversation.

"Mom, be mindful of the hygiene, don’t keep talking while cutting the meat!" Xie Jingzi, unable to stand it any longer, glared at Wan Song, then quietly reminded her mother by her ear.

"Oh, that’s my bad, young man, have a seat, it will be done in no time." Zhou Xiuhua, upon her daughter’s reminder, immediately remembered the words of Third Son’s Wife and fell silent.

Seeing this, Xie Jingzi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Third Sister-in-law’s word was indeed effective, 555~~~

On the other side, Zhou Zhenghui watched Xie Jingzi, who was wrapped in a homemade light pink apron, and felt a sudden surge of desire:

This woman should be in his kitchen, wearing such an apron, preparing soup and washing hands for him!
