The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 201 I suspect you want to poison me

"Okay, it's been delivered, so just leave it here for now. But it's a bit too conspicuous, so have someone move it back to my yard."

The little grasshopper immediately smiled and said, "Okay."

Li Mulan sighed, "Yuanyuan, take him to wash up and change clothes, and stay for dinner with us tonight."

Huo Yuanruo curled his lips and said, "I know."

When the little grasshopper heard this, he immediately looked at Huo Yuanruo in a flattering manner, "Brother Yuanyuan, I didn't bring any clothes. Can you give me some old clothes to change into?"

Huo Yuanruo glared at him unhappily, and it was Brother Yuanyuan again, "Can you wear my clothes?"

Looking at Huo Yuanruo, who was almost a head taller than him and much stronger, the little grasshopper smiled awkwardly, "Actually...actually, you can wear it if you roll up your sleeves and trouser legs."

Li Mulan was convinced by this idiot, "Xi'er, do you still have your old clothes? Give him one."

Li Xi was very obedient, "Okay, sister."

Looking at the obedient Li Xi, the little grasshopper remembered something again, "Mr. Li, happy birthday. I have been thinking about what birthday gift to give you these days."

Li Xi waved his hands and said, "No, no, it's great that you can come. You don't need to bring any birthday gifts."

Little Grasshopper took out a thick stack of banknotes from his bosom and stuffed them into Li Xi's hand. "Little Grasshopper is a rough man. I really can't think of what to give to the young master. Finally, I decided to give him silver. This way, the young master can buy whatever he likes. Isn't that the best?"

Li Xi was stunned when he saw the banknotes in his hand. This... seemed to be the second time he gave him banknotes, and this time there were more...

"I... I..." Li Xi felt the silver note was a little hot and didn't want it. He looked at Li Mulan at a loss.

Li Mulan glared at the little grasshopper, and when she looked at Li Xi, she immediately turned into the gentle sister again, "Xi'er, accept it. Even though it's not sincere, it's still a token of his love. Like the little grasshopper said, buy whatever you like."

"But... this is too much." Li Xijun's face was almost wrinkled.

The little grasshopper waved his hands, looking very proud and said, "It's not much, not much, just 88,000 taels, for good luck. I wish you a bright future and everything goes well."

Li Mulan was so angry when she saw him showing off by using her money to do good deeds.

Liu Feng felt a pang of jealousy when he saw this situation. It was really true that comparing oneself with others would make one feel dreadful. He was the only son of Dean Liu, and he only had ten taels of silver for pocket money every month. Then he looked at Li Xi, and thought, it seemed like he would have to hang out with this brother in the future.

Li Xi took a few people to his own yard. Huo Yuanruo watched them move all of Li Mulan's birthday gifts back to the yard before he went over.

Li Mulan went to the kitchen.

Zhang was preparing the dishes seriously, and Qingyu was helping her.

"Mom, sister."

Zhang turned around and saw her daughter standing behind her with a curious look on her face. "Why are you here? Get out quickly. This is all fumes."

"Oh, it's okay. I came here to prepare a special meal for Xi'er. It's my birthday after all, I can't not prepare anything. Xi'er also prepared a birthday gift for me, but he said he would give it to me in the evening."

Seeing the two siblings being so friendly, Zhang felt relieved. She pulled Li Mulan aside and whispered, "Your uncle is here too. He came secretly and is with your father now."

"That's perfect. Let's have dinner together tonight."

Zhang looked a little disappointed. "He said he would just take one look at you and leave. There are so many people around, so he won't be recognized."

Li Mulan's eyes rolled and she patted Zhang's hand, "Don't worry, mother. Leave this to Lan'er. I'll make sure that uncle can have dinner at the table soon."

"What can you do?"

Li Mulan said proudly, "Secret."

Zhang patted her shoulder in a stern tone, "You kept it a secret from mother, forget it, get out now, don't let your clothes get stained with oil."

Li Mulan looked at Qingyu and said, "Sister, prepare something for me, I'll be here soon."

"What do you want to prepare? Do it yourself? Xiaojiu, don't you know how to cook?"

But it's quite edible...

"Oh, it's just like that." Li Mulan whispered what she wanted and then left.

Qingyu was confused. What was this? Dessert?

Li Mulan was away for only two quarters of an hour, and when she came back she brought Huo Yuanruo with her.

Huo Yuanruo looked depressed. He was having a great time. "Little Master, why did you bring me here? Why didn't you let Li Xi know?"

"I'm going to make a new food for Xi'er. Please help me."

"Food? You?" Huo Yuanruo lost interest immediately. "Oh, Junior Master, forget it. Don't go to the kitchen. How can people eat what you cook?"

Li Mulan hit him angrily, and then hit him twice more, "What are you talking about? I've made a lot of food before, and you said they were all delicious, didn't you?"

Huo Yuanruo sighed, "Before, you told me what to do and Sister Qingyu did it, and it was really amazing. But every time you do it yourself, haha, I suspect you want to poison me."

Li Mulan looked a little uncomfortable. "How would I know? The steps are clearly the same, so why is my result different from my sister's?"

"So, Junior Master, you don't have the talent for this, so let's take a break."

After saying that, he was about to leave, but Li Mulan grabbed him by the collar and said, "No, trust me, I will do this..."

It was the only thing she could make. She recalled that in her previous life, in order to make a birthday cake for her mother, she specially found a pastry chef and learned from him for a week. Although the process was rather tragic, the result was still good. She could still make a simple cake, and it tasted pretty good.

"Really?" Huo Yuanruo expressed his doubt.

"real."

"Then... isn't it enough to have Sister Qingyu here?"

What could he do? Huo Yuanruo was a little confused. In the past, every time Junior Master wanted to prepare some new food, it was Sister Qingyu who prepared it, and he would just watch and wait by the side, and then he could eat it first.

Li Mulan showed a sly smile, "Not enough, my sister has other things to do. You are of great use."

Upon hearing that it would be of great use, Huo Yuanruo instantly became arrogant and curious, "Then... then I'll help you with reluctance."

Li Mulan chuckled and took her to the kitchen.

Qingyu has already prepared all the materials.

Many materials were not available in that era. Li Mulan looked at the things in front of her, wondering where to start.

Looking at those fresh fruits, let’s make some jam first and then make the cake base.

Li Mulan rolled up her sleeves and prepared to work hard. Zhang found her look a little funny.

From Qingyu, I know that her daughter can't cook at all, and I don't know what she can make. Should I prepare another dish for her? In case if she messes up, she will have nothing to report to Xi'er?
