Manager Liu and a few friends were having dinner in the kitchen of the outer yard, and Mo Xiao, Licorice and Mama Li ate in the flower hall of the inner yard.

Mo Xiao followed Licorice all the way from the corridor to the east wing in the inner courtyard. The flower hall was the first in the east wing, right next to Mo Xiao’s dormitory.

She smelled the scent of the food even though she was still outside the door.

"It's braised fish pieces and scrambled eggs from Chinese toon." Mo Xiao said in surprise.

"Yes, Chinese toon is the best at this time. Miss used to eat a few more bites of rice because of this dish." Licorice said next to her.

Mo Xiao was stunned. Even the original owner liked the food as hers.

As soon as she entered the flower hall, she saw a woman placing bowls and chopsticks. This woman should be the mother Li mentioned. According to Licorice, mother Li was only about forty. But when she saw the woman in front of her, she had rough skin and dry skin, and there were a few shallow fine lines on her forehead. If she saw mother Li like this in modern times, Mo Xiao would definitely think she was almost sixty.

On the way I came just now, Mo Xiao had already learned about Li Mom Li from the mouth of Licorice. Li's mother's hometown is Lijia Village in the suburbs. Her husband died early and finally raised her two sons. She finally got married and started a career. Her grandson could run and jump. It was time to enjoy a happy life. The two sons in the family were separated. In fact, no one wanted to raise her, who was already old. Because Li's mother broke her legs when she was young, and her legs were not convenient. The older she was, the less she could not do any heavy work. Naturally, she couldn't help with farm work in the countryside. Her grandson had grown up again, and in the eyes of a young wife, she became an idle person who could only eat.

Li's mother is also a strong man. She didn't want to be looked down upon by her wife, nor did she want to see her son push her around like a ball, so she simply went to the city to find a job. Because she was very good at cooking, she first helped the kitchen in a restaurant, but later she was fired because of her slow hands and feet. Most wealthy families were unwilling to use a woman who walked around and turned around. Later, she went to the Mo Family Hospital. It has been more than ten years since Mo Wen was alive to now.

Li's mother is still an optimistic person. Although her family is not in good condition and the salary in the clinic is not high, she is not careless in doing things and always smiles at people. During the most difficult period of the clinic, she couldn't even pay the wages. The original owner Mo Xiao once proposed to ask Li's mother to go to work with someone else, but Li's mother refused to leave, saying that the boss had trouble for the time being, and she just needed to eat a bite, so she could not leave as soon as possible. She refused to leave and secretly used the wages she saved before to supplement the kitchen expenses.

"Mom Li." Mo Xiao shouted affectionately and walked into the flower hall.

"Miss is here."

Mother Li turned around and smiled at Mo Xiao. She was so smiling that she even smiled at the corners of her eyes, which made Mo Xiao's mood improve suddenly.

"Miss, I guessed it right. It was braised fish pieces and scrambled eggs from Chinese toon, and today I also cooked the bamboo shoot soup you like. These dishes are fresh. The fish were fished by the river in the morning. The bamboo shoots and Chinese toon were dug and picked by the fat man in the suburbs a few miles away." Mother Li said to her enthusiastically.

Fresh is fresh, mainly because it doesn’t cost money. Fish go fishing in the river, and dig and pick bamboo shoots and Chinese toon by themselves, so only eggs are bought with money.

Mo Xiao's heart was suddenly sour and sweet. What was sour was that the current situation of the clinic was difficult. What was sweet was that even if this was the case, there was no sign of disgusting and sadness on the faces of the people from the clinic. They were all supporting the clinic in their way to the best of their ability.

"Well, it's all delicious, let's start."

Mo Xiao sat down and called Li’s mother and licorice to sit down.

The two looked at each other, but neither moved.

Mo Xiao suddenly realized, oh, the ancients were very strict in the hierarchy. Even in such a defeated clinic, the master was still the master, and the servant was still the servant. When the master was having a meal, the servant was naturally waiting to serve him.

"Stop standing, sit down and eat together."

Mo Xiao pulled one with one hand and pulled Li's mother and licorice down.

"How can I use this? Miss. I will wait for a while before using licorice." Mo Xiao stopped her hand and couldn't get up, but her butt was only next to half of the stool, as if the stool was very hot, but she just couldn't sit down.

"Listen to me." Mo Xiao corrected his expression and interrupted Li's mother. "From now on, the clinic does not distinguish between master and servant. Everyone just divides their work and does not have different levels of work. I don't care about what happened before. Anyway, I will listen to me in the future and eat together."

Licorice was actually moved when she heard Mo Xiao say this. After looking at Mo Xiao, she saw that Li Mother was still unwilling to do so. She felt embarrassed to respond first, so she kept silent.

"Licorice, go and get two more pairs of bowls and chopsticks to put them out." Mo Xiao said.

"this……"

"I won't listen to the lady's words, right?" Mo Xiao looked at him as if he was angry.

"I know, licorice will go immediately!" Licorice suddenly stood up and ran to the kitchen, like a little rabbit.

After a while, Licorice brought two sets of bowls and chopsticks, and Mo Xiao took it and put a pair in front of Li's mother and Licorice.

"I'm hungry, but if you don't eat it today, I won't eat it either." Mo Xiao said.

"Then... I have to take a bite first before I dare to eat it." Licorice looked at Mo Xiao with her lips pursed.

Mo Xiao looked at Li's mother again.

"Miss doesn't like me, a country woman, for being indecent, so I'll eat with her from now on. Miss. "My mother also responded happily.

Mo Xiao first picked up a scrambled egg and put it into Li’s mother’s bowl, “Mom Li, you didn’t leave when the clinic was in trouble. From now on, you are part of the clinic. No matter if you are old or sick, as long as you are in the clinic for a day, the clinic will support you.”

"Miss, this..." Li's mother was moved to tears. She thought that she had worked hard to raise her son and was unwilling to support her. A boss who gave her wages actually said what she wanted to raise her, so she would not cry with mixed feelings.

"Don't worry, the clinic will not be poor all the time. You can wait and see. I will let the clinic turn losses into profits within this month."

"Well, I believe Miss."

Licorice nodded heavily. After a long time of observation today, she found that the lady seemed to have changed when she woke up. Although her medical skills were still as good as she was, there was obviously a sense of ruthlessness in her eyes. She believed that such a lady would definitely get out of the situation of being bullied.

"The old woman also believes in the lady." Mother Li smiled.

"Mom Li is still young, so she can't call herself an old woman. When I have time, I will give you some medicinal oil to apply to you to ensure that you look as sensual as licorice."

Mo Xiao was in junior high school because of acne, so he made a lot of Chinese medicine masks under the guidance of his grandfather. The effect was very good. Later, he made some facial masks for his mother and grandmother, which were more useful than the high-priced masks sold on the market. Friends who knew him rushed to let her do it. If she hadn't just wanted to be a doctor, she could have changed her career and made a mask.

Think about it, eating by yourself, two people standing next to you are waiting for you to finish eating before eating. It is hard to swallow this meal. Ancient ladies can get used to it, but Mo Xiao must not be able to. It is better to eat together, as it is much more lively, right?
