Chapter 431 Do your family members know about your quirks?
"So, you only bullied Miaomiao? Since you and she are truly in love, why don't you just break off the engagement and marry her?"
Qiao Manman asked the question very subtly, afraid that the two elderly people would not be able to accept such a shocking term as "sexual fetish".
Hua Yihai lived up to her expectations and spoke his mind: "She's just a girl with no background and no education. Why would I marry her? I'd be lucky to sleep with her."
I like tender ones, eleven or twelve-year-old flower buds, thirteen or fourteen-year-old blossoms, about to bloom, shy yet full of...
"Stop, stop describing it, it hurts me to hear it. Just tell me directly, how many people were bullied, and what happened to them afterwards!"
"Yes... I can't remember exactly, maybe seven or eight, maybe twelve or thirteen."
Some women, after being bullied, didn't dare tell their families and hastily got married. Others, once their families found out, simply gave them some money and that was it; it was easily resolved.
There was only one maid, who was too fierce-tempered and drowned herself in a well.
Why is she so stubborn? There's hardly anyone left in her family. Wouldn't it be better for her to stay with me like Miaomiao and have my children?
Qiao Manman asked curiously, "By the way, how many illegitimate children do you have?"
"There are only two, born to Miao Miao, a boy and a girl."
However, my dad had quite a few illegitimate children, all of whom my mom kept firmly under her control and posed no threat to my position.
"So, this is a family tradition? Do your family members know about this quirk of yours?"
"I know, my mom told me to be careful and not to kill anyone. My dad told me to target people with no connections so he can clean up my mess if anything goes wrong."
The He family members looked livid and didn't know what to say.
Qiao Manman added insult to injury: "One, two, three, they have terrible taste! They actually introduced such a potential partner to my mother!"
"We were just fooled by their appearance!" He Jingcheng touched his nose, quite embarrassed.
Qiao Manman chuckled, but her laughter left everyone feeling rather uncomfortable.
She stepped forward and kicked Yin Yuhan and Hua Yihai together: "It's true, you can't have two kinds of people sleeping in the same bed!"
After saying that, he asked the two men, "Have you ever betrayed the He family?"
"Yes!" Yin Yuhan didn't want to say it, but she couldn't control her mouth.
Hua Yihai also revealed everything about how he bribed Huang Qin.
Fortunately, the He family members are carefree in their daily lives but quite cautious at work.
At home, they rarely discuss matters related to the research institute, so Aunt Huang knows very little about it, and it hasn't caused any serious consequences, except for the ambush this morning.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Manman picked up the recorder on the table and pressed the stop button.
He took out the tape and handed it to Ji Ming: "Let's do business as usual!"
He turned his head and glanced at Li Hailian and He Dechang, wanting to see what their opinions were.
The couple nodded resentfully: "Keep a low profile, don't let the Hua family find out and use any means to get us out."
“Okay!” Ji Ming replied, and together with Xia Zhao, led the person out.
Qiao Manman rubbed her stomach: "Oh dear, I'm so hungry! Didn't you say there would be food? Can we eat now?"
He Jingcheng's stomach rumbled, and Li Hailian quickly said, "Please sit down, I'll go check the kitchen!"
Qiao Manman replied "Okay," and then she ran into the kitchen. Then, a sharp explosion was heard.
"That damned Scutellaria baicalensis, she had no intention of entertaining my granddaughter at all!"
Qiao Manman jogged over, glanced at the kitchen, saw a pile of vegetables that hadn't been cleaned yet, and burst out laughing.
"Aunt Huang has no intention of letting me in alive; she's not even going to pretend anymore!"
Li Hailian was both shocked and ashamed. Holding Qiao Manman's hand, tears streamed down her face.
Qiao Manman sighed, "Alright, I'll make it. It'll be a good opportunity for you to try my cooking!"
"You've worked so hard, let's go out to eat. Grandma will take you to a state-run restaurant!"
"It's too far, maybe next time!" Qiao Manman pushed her towards the door: "I don't like others watching me cook, please wait outside, it will be ready in a little while."
"Let Jingcheng help you. He used to do a lot of housework."
"No need, no need, I can do it much faster on my own."
Fearing that others might disturb her, Qiao Manman called out, "Uncle, please keep an eye on my grandparents and don't let them come and bother me!"
He Jingcheng jumped up from the sofa in surprise: "You called me uncle? Great, great, great! Uncle promises to complete the mission!"
Li Hailian and He Dechang were so surprised and delighted by the words "Grandma and Grandpa" that they laughed and cried. They sat in the corner discussing whether the gift they had prepared for their granddaughter was valuable enough.
Qiao Manman asked the system to keep an eye on the outside, and then rinsed and steamed the rice that had been partially washed with Scutellaria baicalensis.
Feeling it wasn't enough, they took out some more cornbread.
I glanced at the vegetables in the kitchen and replaced them all with those from the space.
The growing environment is good, and the vegetables grow exceptionally clean; they only need a quick rinse before cooking.
Qiao Manman checked the spice jars and found that there wasn't much salt and sugar left, so she took some from her spatial storage to replenish them.
Vinegar and soy sauce were also added. Oil was poured directly into the bucket.
Cut the green beans and romaine lettuce into sections, peel and shred the potatoes, dice the tomatoes and tofu, cut the eggplant into strips, and shred or mince the pork.
As for the live fish, he casually tossed it into the lotus pond in his spatial dimension to keep it alive.
They caught another fat one, threw it into the slaughtering machine, and in just a few minutes, they had a clean, large carp.
Qiao Manman cooked stir-fried green beans, stir-fried romaine lettuce, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and Mapo tofu according to her own taste.
There are also potato slices with meat and minced meat with eggplant.
As for the fish, just as Li Hailian said, it was made into a sweet and sour dish.
The aroma filled the large living room, making the old lady so tempted that she wanted to go into the kitchen several times, but He Jingcheng stopped her each time.
It wasn't until Qiao Manman finished preparing everything and called everyone to start eating that he jogged over. Looking at the table full of delicious-looking food, he was overwhelmed with excitement.
"Granddaughter, who taught you this skill? Back in the day, all Niannian could do was stir-fry shredded potatoes!"
"Self-taught!" Qiao Manman didn't say much, and called her comrades outside to have dinner together.
Everyone laughed and shook their heads: "Sister-in-law, you eat first, we're not hungry!"
But Qiao Manman could clearly hear their stomachs rumbling.
"Don't be shy, I made a lot!" She didn't treat herself like an outsider at all, and scooped out two-thirds of all the dishes.
He took it outside and said, "You can divide it yourselves. There are also steamed buns; I'll go get them for you!"
"Thank you so much, sister-in-law!" The young soldier smiled broadly, making those who were originally on duty there extremely envious.
Lowering his voice, he asked, "Is Grandpa He's granddaughter a military wife from your unit? You all seem to respect her quite a bit!"
"Of course, our sister-in-law is wonderful..."
They went on and on, showering praise upon praise, making the listeners feel they were exaggerating.
Qiao Manman placed the steamer on the ground and instructed the young soldier, "Call me if you're not full. There's more at home, I'll get more!"
He glanced at the guards watching him expectantly from the shadows and said, "Give them some too. They've all worked hard guarding the area!"
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll treat everyone equally and make sure they feel your kindness too!"
