Chapter 131: Chapter 131 Ranked second_1
Four people were bustling around in the kitchen.
Yun Shuang had also arrived.
Since her house was a bit far from her parent’s house, she arrived a little later.
“Mother, sister-in-law, second younger sister-in-law, third younger sister-in-law.”
She saw that the steamer was already set up in the kitchen and knew that they were almost done with their work.
After giving the kitchen duties to her three daughters-in-law, Yun’s mother prepared to go out and greet the guests.
In these Full Moon Wine celebrations, the guests would obviously not come empty-handed. Some brought money, some brought food, and so on.
When the guests arrived, the meal was served. When they saw the meat dishes on the table, the eyes of some women lit up. They wondered where Wang Shulan had gotten the meat from, and even the chicken meat, was she willing to kill so many?
Those who were previously expecting a drama got a slap in their face, but still, they ate the food on the table.
They had previously thought that Wang Shulan was just exaggerating. Now it seemed that her third daughter-in-law really did have outstanding cooking skills, and the meat was delicious.
From then on, everyone in Qingzhao Village knew Meng Yunhan’s culinary skills were excellent. She would take second place, with no one daring to claim the first.
After the guests left, sons and sons-in-law began to clean the tables and return them to their owners.
And the women washed the dishes and cleaned up everything else. It was all women’s work.
Meng Yunhan did not help clean up because Little Huzi was making a fuss and she had been busy cooking for several tables, she was really tired.
Little Huzi had been scared by the crowd and the sound of firecrackers earlier, and was a bit fussy.
After Yun’s mother finished cleaning, she went into the room to look. She saw her daughter-in-law hugging her grandson and said softly, “Is he asleep?”
Meng Yunhan nodded silently.
He had been making a fuss for half a day before finally falling asleep.
But he could not be left alone. Little Huzi had been scared today.
Yun’s mother sat by the bed, her eyes filled with kindness as she looked at her grandson.
“Hanhan, your cooking skills were excellent today. Everyone was praising you!” Yun’s mother was particularly proud today. This full moon feast not only silenced those who claimed she was stingy but also those who bragged about how good their banquets were, serving all kinds of luxurious fishes and meats.
But even with luxurious fishes and meats, it still depends on whether the cooking skills are up to standard.
Every table finished eating today. There were some leftover buns, but there wasn’t even one dumpling left over. Although there was only a little bit of meat in the dumplings, they were tastier than the buns.
Meng Yunhan simply smiled modestly.
Yun’s mother cleared her throat and brought up another matter, “Your older sister-in-law, and your second sister-in-law, mean well, but I have already told them. From now on, your father and I will live with you.”
Meng Yunhan readily agreed, “Of course, I believe Ahao wouldn’t have any objections.”
Mentioning Ahao, the smile gradually faded from Meng Yunhan’s face, “Mother, Ahao went back to the army after New Year and only mailed one letter. There has been no news for several months.”
Yun’s mother also thought about this.
Her husband had previously called from the town’s post office. They had heard that nothing was wrong, just that Ahao was on a mission.
But a month had passed. Little Huzi was already one month old. Why hadn’t her son sent a letter home? Why hadn’t they received a telegram or phone call? What if something had really happened?
She was very worried, but she couldn’t reveal it. Discussing this with Yunhan might make her anxious. When people become anxious, they can become ill. This could lead to a drop in breast milk. What would her grandson eat then?
