Chapter 291 What, grandma wants to eat instant noodles?
My grandmother, who usually stood on my side, stood on the side of Shen Nianran, a bitch, for some reason. Shen Youran saw that her grandmother ignored her, so she had to sit aside angrily. But it was good this way, it would be much more convenient to act later. Shen Youran smiled evilly, and a cunning look flashed in her eyes.
The group left the city gate and headed for Xiangguo Temple. According to the speed of the carriage, if they set out now, they would arrive at least around 3 p.m.
Around noon, they arrived at a river at the foot of the mountain. After traveling for a whole morning, everyone was a little tired. The old lady ordered the carriage to stop, and everyone rested by the river, ate some dry food and drank some water, and then set off again after resting.
There were also people resting by the river nearby, probably going to Xiangguo Temple like them.
Yao Qingnian jumped off the carriage lightly, her gorgeous clothes fluttering in the wind, like a beautiful butterfly. The spring sunshine sprinkled on her body, warm and comfortable, and she stretched her body.
She looked up, her eyes fell on the river not far away. The river water sparkled with dazzling light under the sun, and it was sparkling, as if countless diamonds were scattered on the water. The breeze blew gently, and ripples appeared on the river surface, like a natural painting unfolding before her eyes.
Gazing at the beautiful scenery quietly, she felt a sense of peace and joy in her heart. She liked such moments, away from the hustle and bustle, enjoying the gift of nature.
After she had admired the beautiful scenery, her stomach growled. Shan Wei took out the snacks she had brought and handed them to Yao Qingnian. She looked at the snacks and had no appetite. She got on the carriage and took out two packs of instant noodles. She built a temporary stove by the river and boiled water. Soon, two bowls of fragrant instant noodles were ready.
The aroma spread, and the dry food that everyone nearby was eating instantly became tasteless: "Hey, what smells so good?"
"I don't know. Who is cooking something?"
Everyone sniffed to find the source of the fragrance, and finally they all looked towards Yao Qingnian at the same time.
"Miss, this is so... so fragrant!" Shan Wei picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, exclaiming in admiration.
Shen Youran, who was not far away, smelled the fragrance and couldn't help complaining, "Grandma, look, my sister is eating so deliciously by herself, leaving you here to eat dry food, and she didn't even think of bringing it to you as a filial piety."
The old lady took a glance and swallowed unconsciously. This girl was really disrespectful. She didn't know how to give her the good things. But she couldn't say anything. She couldn't ask her for food with an elder. She couldn't lose face. She took the cake in her hand and took a bite: "You are coming back from the country. You are really unruly."
Yao Qingnian ignored them and ate with Shan Wei with gusto. When she was eating, a maid came over and said, "Excuse me, young lady. My wife and I are going to Xiangguo Temple. My wife is feeling unwell and is resting here. She can't eat anything. She hasn't eaten for most of the day. When she smelled the fragrance of your noodles, she felt a little hungry. So I came here shamelessly to ask if you still have these noodles. Can you sell me some?"
The old woman looked not far away, and Yao Qingnian followed her line of sight and saw a veiled lady leaning against a tree. When she saw Yao Qingnian looking at her, she smiled and nodded in response.
"Yes, mother-in-law, wait a minute, I'll get it for you." Yao Qingnian got on the carriage, got a bucket of instant noodles for the mother-in-law, and then told her how to make it.
"Thank you, young lady. Here's the silver." The old woman took out a silver ingot and handed it to Yao Qingnian.
"Mother-in-law, no need. It is fate that we meet here today. Consider this instant noodles a gift from me to you. Take it and eat it." Yao Qingnian saw that the mother-in-law was well-dressed and behaved modestly and politely. Also, the lady did not look like an ordinary family either. So she refused the money and did the mother-in-law a favor. Maybe she could meet her again in the capital in the future.
"How can this be possible! No reward without merit..." The old woman wanted to refuse, but was rejected by Yao Qingnian. The old woman had no choice but to thank him repeatedly and went back with the instant noodles.
Not long after, some more people came to buy instant noodles. Yao Qingnian collected one tael of silver from each person and sold them for more than ten taels of silver.
Shen Youran saw it clearly from a distance. She actually gave it away instead of giving it to her sister and grandmother. She even sold it for money. One tael of silver, robbing! She was so angry at this bitch that she stood up and walked towards Yao Qingnian. The old lady did not stop her. When she got close, Shen Youran lowered her voice and said, "Sister, what are you eating? It smells so good. Even grandma feels a little uncomfortable!"
The meaning of her words was very clear. You were eating so deliciously, and your grandmother was not feeling well, so you should send some food over.
"Instant noodles! What? Grandma is not feeling well. Sister, why don't you take good care of her? If something happens, how will you explain to father when you go back? I have hot water here. Come, bring a cup to her. The weather is a little cold. Come, drink more hot water." Yao Qingnian pretended not to understand.
"Sister... I... How can you blame me for my grandmother not feeling well? My grandmother, the nanny and I ride in a carriage. It's not as comfortable as you riding in a carriage alone. You would rather give away the delicious food here than cook for my grandmother." Shen Youran pretended to be pitiful, but this damn bitch accused her of not taking good care of her grandmother.
When the people who came to buy instant noodles heard this, they all looked at her with some sympathy. But when they looked at Yao Qingnian again, their eyes were no longer as enthusiastic as before, but were filled with a bit of contempt. They didn't expect that this girl looked dignified, but was actually unfilial.
"What? Grandma wants to eat instant noodles! Then call her over to eat. Look, there's some in the pot!" Yao Qingnian deliberately raised her voice so that the old lady could hear.
Everyone around looked over, and the old lady's face suddenly darkened, and she got on the carriage. She wanted to eat, but she didn't send it to her, and she yelled, this evil creature!
"Sister, these are your leftovers, how can you give them to grandma?" Shen Youran's eyes were red and she sobbed softly, looking pitiful. She said it in front of everyone on purpose so that everyone could see how unfilial she was that she actually gave the leftovers to her grandmother.
"Sister, how can these be leftovers! I couldn't even get enough to eat in the village before, and I had to drink wild vegetable soup to survive during the most difficult times. How could I live like you in the mansion with fine clothes and delicious food? Look at the noodles, they smell so good, and there's still steam coming out of the pot, how can you say they are leftovers!" He's just pretending, everyone doesn't know how to do that!
When everyone heard this, they all felt that the girl in front of them was a little hypocritical. She was eating with a bowl in her hand, and there was still a lot in the pot. How could it be said that it was leftover? If they were allowed to eat, they would be willing to eat it. It was so delicious. Many of them were servants of wealthy families. They immediately heard the provocation in Shen Youran's words, and didn't want to listen to other people's gossip anymore, so they took the food and returned to their seats.
