Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 987 - 989: Preparing to Win Over the Big Boss

Xiaoxiao was stunned by her own idea. How is this possible?

She’s not some master chef who can turn unremarkable ingredients into delicious meals.

At Little Shitou’s house, the conditions are so basic, and the ingredients are even simpler.

If this could attract that person, she would really doubt if that person’s sense of taste had malfunctioned.

Seeing Xiaoxiao not speaking and somewhat dazed, Yuniang called out to her, "Girl, girl!"

Only then did Xiaoxiao snap out of her thoughts. Since this is the case, she might as well give it a shot—better to try than not.

Once she coaxed the angry person, she would have a chance to make him fulfill that condition.

If she failed to console him, Xiaoxiao could foresee that this matter would be hopeless.

It’s not that she boasted others’ morale while demoralizing herself, but rather thinking in reverse, if it were her, she wouldn’t have the magnanimity to forgive.

The only consolation was that she merely stomped furiously, without actually tearing things apart.

Originally, she wanted to tear things apart but found it too painful and troublesome for her hands and instead opted to tear books.

Luckily, her laziness saved her?

"Big sis, let’s head back to the kitchen."

As Xiaoxiao spoke, she dragged Yuniang toward the kitchen.

Xiaoxiao’s actions changed from one moment to another, and Yuniang was increasingly confused, though she never quite understood her to begin with.

"Girl, are you hungry again?" She had clearly just eaten quite a bit.

"Not hungry, not hungry, your Big Boss hasn’t eaten all day, right? Let me make something for her!" Xiaoxiao replied, deciding it best to first feed that furious lion.

"..." Yuniang was speechless. Xiaoxiao really did change behavior frequently; she had nearly torn the new house apart earlier and now she wanted to make amends.

However, she could understand Xiaoxiao’s desire to make amends, "Girl, the meal is all ready, it’s about to be served, there’s no need for you to cook more."

The two entered the kitchen and—ah, sure enough!

They had been preparing for the evening banquet all day, and even at the slowest pace, everything was ready, so there was no room for her to shine.

Xiaoxiao, not behaving like an outsider, sampled the dishes on the chopping board.

Chewing a few bites, the taste was indeed just a slight bit inferior to what she usually cooked.

Or perhaps she should cook a few more dishes to win over the Big Boss?

So Xiaoxiao looked over at what usable ingredients were left on the counter and thought about what dishes to make.

She picked up a kitchen knife and started chopping with fervor.

The way she chopped had a bit of a master chef’s flair. After all, she had been doing this for months since she arrived here.

"Girl, you’re..." Seeing Xiaoxiao still wanting to cook, Yuniang was puzzled.

"Big sis, I’m going to make some dishes specifically for the Big Boss, help me out in a bit."

"..." Yuniang dearly wanted to say, forget it, the Big Boss probably hadn’t eaten all day and should be starving, it would be best to serve the food immediately.

But seeing Xiaoxiao’s determination, and remembering the Big Boss’s demeanor, she inexplicably wanted to give Xiaoxiao a chance.

So she nodded in agreement and began helping Xiaoxiao prepare food for the Big Boss.

Actually, it wasn’t much, just sweet and sour ribs, egg and tomato stir-fry, cucumber stir-fried with pork, and an egg drop soup.

Three dishes and a soup, simple and fast, with fragrant dishes ready in no time.

The small stove cooking indeed had a slightly better flavor than the big pot meals.

Looking at these four dishes, Xiaoxiao was very satisfied; their success or failure now fully depended on them.
