Futuristic Chef Transmigrated As Mother

346 Kind Reminder

Yu Zhizhi glanced at her in disdain. The old woman, who had been so arrogant a moment ago, now looked so listless when she saw a brat. How embarrassing.

Seeing this, Xiaoguo and Jiang Danhe could only let Xiaoyi and Zhuang Zhuang go back to study. Jiang Danhe was in charge of sending them back, leaving Xiaoguo to chat with the Prime Minister’s wife.

After watching Xiaoyi leave, the Prime Minister’s wife was finally able to relax.

“Come, Madam, have some tea.”

Xiaoguo took a clean cup and poured her a cup of cold tea.

“Thank you.”

The Prime Minister’s wife picked up the cup and took a sip. The taste was very refreshing. She couldn’t help but finish it in one gulp.

Seeing this, Xiaoguo refilled her glass.

“Mrs. Jiang, I’ve embarrassed myself…” The Prime Minister’s wife looked shy. She had never finished a cup of tea all in one gulp. It was too embarrassing.

“It’s fine. Chilled tea is best for summer.”

“It’s simply delicious. Did you make this yourself?”

“Yes. I made this with fruit and black tea.”

“Fruits and black tea?!” The Prime Minister’s wife’s eyes widened when she heard that. She didn’t know that fruits could be used for making black tea.

Seeing that she was interested, Xiaoguo started discussing it with her.

The two of them started talking, making Yu Zhizhi extremely anxious. Brother Jiang had been gone for so long. He should be back by now.

He wasn’t gone for that long, but to Yu Zhizhi, it felt like two hours had passed. Just as Xiaoguo and Lady Yang were getting more and more engrossed in their conversation, Jiang Danhe finally returned. Yu Zhizhi was overjoyed.

Jiang Danhe did not even spare her a glance. He sat down beside Xiaoguo and joined in the conversation.

Although Jiang Danhe was a man, he was not as pedantic and chauvinistic as other men. Occasionally, he would get involved in the conversation between Xiaoguo and the Prime Minister’s wife.

As they spoke, the teapot eventually became empty. However, the more they chatted, the happier they became. They had no intention of parting, so Jiang Danhe went to the kitchen to make more tea.

The Prime Minister’s wife shook her head enviously. “It’s said that all gentlemen stay away from the kitchen. I’ve finally seen for myself that the rumors were all true, and I understand why the other ladies didn’t dare to witness it for themselves. Even though I am so old, when I saw how well Danhe took care of you, I couldn’t help but feel envious…”

Xiaoguo was stunned to hear her say that. Then she understood. Without saying anything, she smiled shyly.

“How magical. Happiness is really written on one’s face…”

The Prime Minister’s wife looked at her smile and said nostalgically.

At least that kind of smile had not appeared on her face for more than twenty years. The last time it made its appearance was when her daughter was born. After that…

At the thought of this, the Prime Minister’s wife’s dignified face suddenly darkened.

Xiaoguo didn’t know how to comfort her. She could tell what she meant, but she didn’t know how to make her feel better.

After that banquet, Jiang Danhe had spoken to her briefly about the few high-ranking ministers. They all had the same problem—there were too many women in their harems.

Although the Prime Minister was already so old, he had many women in his harem. Some were in their forties, and some were in their twenties. Although the Prime Minister’s wife was the most senior, she only wished for a devoted heart. However, her man’s heart had already been divided into five or six parts. How much of it was left for her after being shared among the other women?

Women in ancient times were really pitiful. It is a good thing that polygamy was abolished.

Xiaoguo patted the back of her hand gently to comfort her. The other party only responded with a desolate smile.

The Prime Minister’s wife tried to calm herself down. For some inexplicable reason, she couldn’t help pouring her heart out to Xiaoguo when she saw her. She was not the type who revealed their true feelings so easily, but Xiaoguo had some charm about her that made people feel relaxed and compelled to confide in her.

“Aiyo… Mrs. Yang, I am having a stomachache. I need to…”

Yu Zhizhi had been waiting for a long time and was really not in the mood to listen to what the two of them were talking about. Her heart had already flown to Jiang Danhe’s side. She really couldn’t wait any longer. This was a rare opportunity for her and Jiang Danhe to spend time together. If she missed the chance, it would be gone forever. She had to think of a way to catch hold of him.

“Go on, go on.” The Prime Minister’s wife waved her hand without turning her head. She couldn’t be bothered to look at Yu Zhizhi.

When Yu Zhizhi heard Lady Yang giving her permission to leave, she ran away without holding her stomach. Fortunately, she knew how to cover up a little and took a few detours to chase after Jiang Danhe. Otherwise, she would have really drowned in a pool of criticisms.

She traveled all the way to the kitchen. But when she entered the place, Jiang Danhe was not there. After asking around, she found out that he had already left.

Hence, without caring about her sweaty appearance, she picked up her dress and chased after him. In her mind, she was still crafting her confession. She had to make Brother Jiang fall in love with her!

On the other side, after Yu Zhizhi left, the Prime Minister’s wife looked at Xiaoguo solemnly and reminded her kindly, “This girl has ulterior motives for Danhe. Be careful.”

“Yu Zhizhi?” Xiaoguo was stunned. How did this fool manage to reveal her thoughts to everyone?!

Everyone should know what the woman was plotting by now…

Xiaoguo couldn’t help but feel a little ashamed. Yu Zhizhi had already confessed to the whole world. Would it be too fake if she continued feigning ignorance?

“That’s who she is.” The Prime Minister’s wife was wearing a look of certainty. She was quite sure about her guess. Yu Zhizhi’s intentions were written all over her face. Fearing that Xiaoguo wouldn’t believe her, she told Xiaoguo everything about her discovery.

“I’ll be more wary of her.”

Xiaoguo said sincerely. The Prime Minister’s wife heaved a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Jiang Danhe returned with the cold tea. There were two pots of tea on the tray.

First, he nodded at the Prime Minister’s wife. Then, he said to Xiaoguo, “I bumped into Li Shouji just now. He said that the kids are getting out of hand and he couldn’t handle them anymore.”

Xiaoguo looked at him in surprise. Zhuang Zhuang and Xiaoyi?

“In that case, you better hurry back and take a look. At this age, they are usually quite cheeky. Boys are even more so.”

The Prime Minister’s wife, who was listening from the side, spoke first.

“Then… we’ll go back first,” Xiaoguo said embarrassedly as she stood up.

The Prime Minister’s wife nodded in understanding. At this moment, Jiang Danhe took one teapot from the tray and placed it on the table. “Mrs. Yang, since you like this tea, I made an extra pot for you.”

“Thank you, I really like it a lot…”

The Prime Minister’s wife’s face was filled with joy. After handing it to the servants, she left the pavilion.

Xiaoguo and Jiang Danhe also left and rushed towards their residence. To be honest, even if Zhuang Zhuang and Xiaoyi were making a fuss, Xiaoguo felt that the situation should still be within control. Therefore, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.

When Jiang Danhe heard her conjecture, he didn’t say anything. He just smiled mysteriously, making Xiaoguo feel uneasy.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the door, they saw Li Shouji squatting at the door with his hands over his ears.

Xiaoguo called out to him for a long time before he responded. He asked in confusion, “Huh? What did you say?”

Helpless, Xiaoguo sighed and asked again, “Where are Zhuang Zhuang and Xiaoyi?”

“Oh…” Li Shouji picked his ears and pointed into the room. “They are inside!”

Jiang Danhe patted his shoulder sympathetically. “You’ve worked hard…”

“Don’t give me that!”

Li Shouji shook off Jiang Danhe’s hand aggrievedly. He was feeling sorry for himself, but he didn’t say anything. Jiang Danhe was always setting him up. Before this, he was relaxing and enjoying the shade, but the man insisted that Sister-in-law had made some delicious food and invited him to come and eat. However, when he arrived, he realized that he had been tricked into babysitting the two boys!

Seeing that Li Shouji had been thrown out of the room, Xiaoguo had a bad feeling. The door in the distance was tightly shut. She suddenly felt a little scared. If the two boys were really creating havoc inside, would she be able to suppress her anger?

After mentally preparing herself, she pushed open the door. The scene in the room made her unable to calm down for a long time…
