Her praising Isabella Lindsey in public like this was unexpected.
Moreover, the key point is, the praise seemed a bit fake...
Jeffery Johnson had tasted the stir-fried celery with lily bulbs to cool off the heat, but the salt and sugar ratio was off, it was overly sweet and cloying, and there was a hint of a burnt taste...
It was obviously because the cook was absent-minded.
Yet, his wife was lying through her teeth, praising how delicious it was. If it wasn't a problem with her taste buds, then it must be an issue with her mindset—
What kind of crooked idea has Ruth Upperton come up with this time?
Jeffery Johnson ate his meal without showing any expression, looked up, only to see Isabella Lindsey lower her head politely, "I'm a novice at cooking, it's not that good. Thank you, Granny, for being so forgiving."
"Child, you did well. Tomorrow, come back with me to the old mansion so that the family can taste your skills."
