Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

When it came to eating, Jingjing didn’t make things difficult for Xiaotian, "Sister-in-law, I’m fine with whatever, just make whatever you’re good at."

Upon hearing this, Xiaotian didn’t say much and started working. It had been a year since she came to the Guo Mansion, and she hadn’t been in the kitchen for a year. She was a bit rusty, but it wasn’t something she couldn’t handle.

She took out all the available ingredients.

Picking vegetables, washing vegetables, chopping vegetables, cleaning fish, chopping meat...

Jingjing had just spoken nicely, saying she would stay to help, but she didn’t even touch anything and just stood by watching Xiaotian work. Xiaotian didn’t mind, after all, she was a guest, and even if Jingjing wanted to help, Xiaotian wouldn’t let her.

Jingjing, standing there watching Xiaotian cook in the kitchen, didn’t feel impressed at all. Her eyes were filled with disdain. She felt that Xiaotian was just like a Little Maid. A young lady like herself would never do such crude and lowly work.

Someone like her should be writing and embroidering at home!

"Sister-in-law, cut this finer, I don’t like it too coarse."

"Sister-in-law, don’t overcook this later, it won’t taste good if it’s too tough."

"Sister-in-law, cut the meat into smaller pieces."

"Sister-in-law, the fish smells too fishy, I can’t stand it. Can you get rid of the smell?"

"..."

"..."

Standing by, she turned into a commander, not making things difficult for Xiaotian with the eating, but putting forth all sorts of demands in the cooking.

Xiaotian didn’t get angry, after all, it’s just cooking, no matter how it’s done, it has to be cooked.

After everything was prepared, Xiaotian started the fire to cook.

Thick smoke instantly filled the entire kitchen, causing the nearby Jingjing to cough incessantly, "Cough cough, sister-in-law, what did you do, it’s all smoke, cough cough."

Xiaotian quickly apologized, "Jingjing, I’m really sorry. I haven’t cooked for a year, and I’m rusty with starting the fire. It’s all smoke, you should stand by the door, don’t get smoked out."

While saying this, Xiaotian took a palm fan and started fanning it, making the smoke in the kitchen even thicker.

Jingjing, unable to stand the smoke, had no choice but to go out, still cursing in her heart, ’So stupid, can’t even light a fire properly.’

Seeing Jingjing standing at the door, coughing continuously and looking very disdainful, Xiaotian couldn’t help but let a smile slip at the corners of her mouth, "Jingjing, it’s really smoky here, why don’t you take a walk in the courtyard? I’ll call you when the meal’s ready."

"Cough cough." Seeing the smoke pouring out from the kitchen, Jingjing couldn’t stay any longer. Anyway, she had already made things difficult for this unworthy sister-in-law and agreed, thinking she would fight later after eating, "Then I’ll go over there first, you stay here yourself."

Seeing Jingjing leave, Xiaotian couldn’t hold back a laugh, letting out a chuckle for the first time.

However, she quickly put away her smile, took out a small packet from her pocket, and made a little move with the dishes; it’s one thing to bully her, but bullying her daughter was unacceptable.

Luckily, she managed to catch her daughter earlier, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

She indeed had no temper, but it depended on who it was with!

In the time that followed, Xiaotian was alone in the kitchen. She first adjusted the smoky charcoal fire, making things much better in the kitchen, before starting to cook.

After an hour, she laid out the prepared dishes on the table and went out to call Jingjing.

When Jingjing entered the dining room and saw the spread of dishes, she didn’t really want to compliment, but still forced herself to say, "Sister-in-law, you’re really something, being able to make so many dishes."
