From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 452: Chapter 449: Going on a Date Together (Third Update)

Mu Xiaxia was so intimidated by Mu Shuangshuang’s gaze that cold sweat broke out.

For some reason, she felt that this cousin was terrifying!

Mu Xiaxia thought Mu Shuangshuang understood what she had done, but she couldn’t be sure, after all, she had no intention to harm anyone.

She just wanted the third and fourth branches to taste what it felt like to be scolded and bullied.

The fourth branch’s life was just too hard!

Her mother, too pitiful!

”Old Fourth, take your wife back to rest, I’ll have the second daughter-in-law make dinner!”

Mr. Mu made a decisive decision, and it was as if the matter was closed.

...

...

Early the next morning, Mu Shuangshuang took out ten preserved eggs from the jar. She had made a total of ninety preserved eggs, and ten were used over two meals the previous day, leaving seventy remaining in the jar.

Not many, but definitely not few!

This time, she didn’t plan to give the preserved eggs to Jiu Si Xuan.

Not for any particular reason, just because of the time Zheng Xiu had someone attack her and Lu Yuanfeng, she hadn’t settled that score with Zheng Xiu.

Without reclaiming her dignity, she wouldn’t give any good stuff to Jiu Si Xuan anymore!

And there was someone she hadn’t seen for a long time; it was time to visit, and the preserved eggs should be given to her.

Back when she made over a tael of Silver from Xue Yi without any effort, Mu Shuangshuang hadn’t gone to the Xue Family again, afraid that vengeful man would remember her.

However, every half a month, she would send some things to Xue Mansion.

Sometimes it was cold noodles she specially prepared, other times it was her own pickled dried vegetables or sour long beans, or even pickled vegetables. It was to repay Old Mrs. Xue for being so kind to her!

All the grown bean sprouts were pulled out by her, placed in a large basket, and covered with a wet cloth.

Bean sprouts can’t be exposed to light, otherwise, they’d turn green, which would make them unsellable.

Mu Shuangshuang got everything ready before starting to make breakfast.

Lu Yuanfeng and Xing Beichen were up early, just as Mu Shuangshuang lit the fire and washed the pot, both of them arrived.

For breakfast, she planned to make egg fried noodles. The dough, in preparation for the town supplies, had already been proofed, and all that was left was to make the noodles.

The proofed dough could be stretched into particularly long strips. In her previous life, Mu Shuangshuang had seen others making noodles and had asked for some tips, so her noodle-pulling was of the fancy variety. Although it looked manual, the noodles spun in the air.

It was like arranging flowers, extremely beautiful.

Xing Beichen was dumbfounded watching it.

Standing by the stove, he almost wanted to kneel to Mu Shuangshuang. This wasn’t just making noodles, it was showing off skills.

He turned his head to see if Lu Yuanfeng was as surprised as he was, but he wasn’t.

Lu Yuanfeng was also watching without blinking, but besides indulgence, there was no surprise.

This shouldn’t be the first time he had seen it.

Mu Shuangshuang finished stretching the noodles, and by then, the water in the pot had boiled. She put the noodles in the pot to cook, occasionally stirring with chopsticks.

Up close, you could actually see a single noodle spinning continuously in the pot, yet even so, the noodle didn’t break.

Midway through, Mu Shuangshuang added water twice, and when the water bubbled for the third time, she scooped all the noodles out and placed them in a wooden basin filled with water.

Egg fried noodles require more than just eggs.

Mu Shuangshuang washed two green onions, took out some bean sprouts, as well as the dried mushrooms from last time.

Mu Shuangshuang diced these ingredients, then poured canola oil directly into the pot.

Only when the canola oil was hot did she put in the green onions, dried mushrooms, and bean sprouts, stir-frying them for a moment, followed by the noodles.

The noodles were broken by Mu Shuangshuang, selecting enough for four servings. She drizzled some chili oil and also added the bean paste that Aunt Zhao Yun had brought over a few days ago.

When the noodles were all fried, the two guys had already instinctively set the table and brought out the bowls and chopsticks.

Four bowls of noodles were served; Lu Yuanfeng and Xing Beichen had large sea bowls.

The other two were small bowls.

”Wait a minute, I’ll fry the eggs!”

The hen that Feng Xiaohua had caught was quite reliable, laying an egg daily without fail.

She poured oil again, added some salt to the pot, tossed in two eggs, and fried them until both sides were golden brown. Mu Shuangshuang didn’t immediately take out the eggs, but divided them into four portions with a spatula.

This way, everyone got half an egg in their bowl.

Mu Shuangshuang thought she should make some meat sauce to keep at home, as meat wouldn’t last long in the summer, but made into sauce, it could last a while.

This way, they wouldn’t always miss the taste of meat.

At the dining table, the cooked noodles had delightful colors and a strong fragrance, topped with half an egg, which made Xing Beichen very excited.

In the past few days, the food at Shuangshuang’s house tasted a hundred times better than what he had in the Capital.

The food here had the taste of home, very warm and comforting.

”Shuangshuang, is anyone else going to the town?”

Eyeing the untouched bowl, Xing Beichen asked.

”Hmm! You all eat first, I reckon she should be arriving anytime now!”

No sooner had she finished speaking than Fu Xiaonan’s boisterous voice echoed, almost bursting in with dust on her shoes.

Luckily, she stopped at the kitchen doorway.

Otherwise, Mu Shuangshuang would definitely have chased her out with a spatula.

”Shuangshuang, Brother Fengzi, I’m not late, am I?” Fu Xiaonan asked apologetically.

From the moment Fu Xiaonan walked in, Xing Beichen’s eyes hadn’t left her.

Today, she wore a light blue satin dress, with a bit of rouge on her face, her hair styled in the trendy bun popular among girls, with a few strands tied with ribbons darker than her dress on each side, looking extremely playful.

She went straight up, sat down, and then looked at Mu Shuangshuang in surprise: ”Shuangshuang, why haven’t you changed your clothes or applied makeup yet?”

Fu Xiaonan’s remark made Lu Yuanfeng very surprised too.

Was Shuangshuang also going to change clothes and put on makeup?

”Haha, Brother Fengzi, you didn’t even know? I thought since you changed your clothes, you were aware.”

Lu Yuanfeng had also changed into new clothes today, but it was because Mu Shuangshuang had asked him to the night before.

Lu Yuanfeng hadn’t thought much of it.

”Okay, Brother Fengzi, you’re really silly. There’s a lantern festival event in town today. I asked Sister Shuangshuang to accompany me, and of course, we have to wear our best clothes to the festival!”

Lu Yuanfeng’s heart was now racing with excitement.

Even on her birthday, Shuangshuang only wore ordinary clothes, and he had seen her apply makeup to many village girls, but never to herself.

”Fengzi, eat first, after breakfast, give me a stick of incense time to get ready!”

Mu Shuangshuang blushed. She was used to being low-key, and suddenly being high-profile was indeed a bit embarrassing.

”Hmm!” Lu Yuanfeng nodded, starting to slurp the noodles from his bowl.

He couldn’t wait to see Shuangshuang with makeup on.
