Chapter 13 - Chapter 13. Let's see who dares to do so

When Chef Su heard that Lu Yuxi was going to make a pot of chicken soup, he was shocked.

Miss Lu was only ten years old when Chef Su started working for the family. In the seven or eight years that he had worked with them, he had never heard of Miss Lu's interest in cooking!

"Miss, what did you say? Did I hear wrongly? You said you wanted to make soup?" Chef Su's face was filled with disbelief, he didn't even have to say, "I don't believe you."

Lu Yuxi rolled her eyes. "Chef Su, you heard me correctly. I, Lu Yuxi, want to make a pot of chicken soup. You just have to help me prepare the ingredients."

If it was in her previous life, Lu Yuxi wouldn't have made chicken soup. She didn't even know what chicken was.

At that time, someone told her that the quickest way to a man's heart was through his stomach. So, she enrolled in cooking classes for a few months. Who knew that she would die without ever testing out her skills.

Chef Su gestured at his two assistants and told them to leave quickly.

"Miss, wait a moment. I've asked them to prepare the basic ingredients. Do you need anything else?" Chef Su asked.

Lu Yuxi looked at the vegetables and chicken wrapped in plastic wrap and said, "No need. You guys go out for half an hour. I want to control the kitchen during that time."

"Miss, are you sure we can leave without helping you?" Chef Su asked again. He was quite afraid that Miss would burn down his precious kitchen.

Lu Yuxi pursed her lips and pulled out the knife that was inserted into the chopping board in front of her. She blew on it and looked over.

"Miss, don't be rash. We'll leave immediately. If you need any help, just let us know." After saying that, Chef Su ran out with his two disciples.

She rolled up her right and left sleeves, ready to go all out.

She grabbed the chicken that was still wrapped in plastic wrap and quickly removed the covering. Then, she placed it in the sink and rinsed it.

Then, she placed the chicken in a pot filled with water and let it simmer for two hours. The rest of the ingredients would follow.

If others saw this scene, they would not believe it. The reason why Lu Yuxi wanted to make soup was because it was Mother Hu's 62nd birthday today.

She remembered in her previous life, Mother Hu gave her a few red eggs on this day. She said that they were a specialty of her hometown. Lu Yuxi regretted that she did not even mind the eggs and just threw them away. This made Mother Hu sad for a long time. It took a while for Lu Yuxi to realize that this was a tradition in Mother Hu's village.

It was a custom for the older generations to give their grandsons and granddaughters red eggs when they celebrated their birthday as a gesture that they wanted them to live happily ever after.

She clapped her hands. Alright, it's done. She just needed to get Chef Su to watch the fire for her until she came back from a short trip.

The moment she opened the door, Chef Su almost bumped into her. "Miss, I didn't bump into you, did I?" Chef Su's flustered tone made it obvious that he had been caught eavesdropping.

"I'm fine. Help me watch the fire. I'm going out for a while. Oh, and prepare more dishes tonight. Make them tender, please." Lu Yuxi did not pay attention to his expression. After a few words of advice, she went upstairs to get her bag and left.

Chef Su was left with a face full of questions. Why did it have to be tender? Did Miss start to feel pain in her teeth? Was he too late to do anything about it?

"Miss, where are you going? Do you want me to send you there?" the driver asked.

"No need. I'll walk. It's not far." Lu Yuxi refused to take the driver. Her house was not far from the street. It was not wise to use the car for such a short distance.

After walking for about eight minutes, Lu Yuxi arrived at Ali Mountain Cake Shop and ordered a cake. Mother Hu seemed like she had never eaten a cake before. She had no children and it was already good enough that someone remembered her birthday. Mother Hu loved her as if she was her own granddaughter. It was the least she could do.

It took thirty minutes to prepare the cake. What should she do while waiting? Actually, Lu Yuxi could let Chef Su make the cake from scratch because he was a top-notch baker. However, she did not want to. She wanted to give Mother Hu a surprise. Mother Hu could easily enter the kitchen and see Chef Su making a cake.

Lu Yuxi decided to make good use of her time and went shopping for a birthday gift for Mother Hu. The only problem was she did not know what the old lady liked.

Lu Yuxi strolled around the shopping mall but did not see anything that Mother Hu would like.

Suddenly, Lu Yuxi saw a figure carrying a small bamboo basket at the mall. Without thinking, she rushed over.

"Mother Wu, you are Mother Wu, right?" She ran in front of the woman and asked in surprise.

Mother Wu took a small step back. "Aiyo, little girl, you suddenly appeared. You almost scared me to death." Mother Wu patted her chest to calm her nerves.

"Mother Wu, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. Are you okay? You didn't get too scared, right?" Lu Yuxi apologized for her recklessness.

Mother Wu looked at Lu yuxi kindly and smiled. "I'm fine. Little girl, do you know me? How do you know my surname is Wu?"

Of course, she knew her surname was Wu. In her previous life, Mother Wu had come all the way from her hometown to the city to visit Mother Hu. She had brought Mother Hu some eggs for her birthday, but before she could enter the house, she was chased away by Lu Yuxi's cold words. To have an old lady in her 60s, outside in the middle of the night...She had been really bad in her previous life. Now that she thought about it, she wanted to slap herself in the face.

"Mother Wu, are you here to look for the Lu family's Hu Jing?" Lu Yuxi asked.

Mother Wu was a little puzzled. "Young Lady, how did you know that I'm here to look for her? When I came here, I remember that I didn't tell anyone!"

Lu Yuxi did not know how to explain herself after being asked. Fortunately, she changed the topic.

"Little girl, do you know where the Lu family is? Can you take me there? I just looked for a long time. That red and green car is expensive," Mother Wu said as she pointed to a taxi.

Lu Yuxi almost laughed out loud. So the older generation called the taxi red and green!

Lu Yuxi called a taxi and opened the door to let Mother Wu in. The old lady refused to get in.

"Little girl, what are you doing? I am an old lady. I can't be sold for much money." Mother Wu tried to close the door, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't.

"Mother Wu, don't worry. I won't sell you. I know Mother Hu. Now, I'll get a taxi to take you there. I'll bring you back safely," Lu Yuxi explained, highly amused.

"No, it's too expensive. I won't take it," Mother Wu continued to worry.

"Don't worry. I've given you money. In the meantime, I'll just get something from the mall. When you get there, just get out of the car and enter the house." Lu Yuxi said.

"Master, you can go. The Lu family house in Qiqu."

She believed that the reunion of the old sisters should be Mother Hu's most desired gift.

When she returned home after getting the cake, she saw the following scene.

"Who are you? Do you know where this is? How dare you try to come in. This is the Lu residence. Old woman, get far away from here as possible and stop being an eyesore!" Wang Maihe said arrogantly.

Wang Maihe had heard from others that Lu Yuxi handed in her mock exam paper in 20 minutes. She was already in a bad mood and now she found a target standing in front of her where she could vent her anger.

"I'm here to look for Hu Jing. Can you help me and ask her to come out? I'll leave after I give her something," Mother Wu whispered in fear.

Wang Maihe looked down at Mother Wu. "There's no one here for a crazy woman like you. Security, help me chase her out."

The security guard couldn't bear it. Ever since the Wang mother and daughter appeared, people like them were often bullied. Although the young miss Lu made things difficult for them, she never treated them this way.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and chase her out!" Wang Maihe acted like a young miss.

"Well, what do we have here." Lu Yuxi held the cake and stared at Wang Maihe expressionlessly.
