Chapter 67 Good Cooking

Ma Lan was a little ashamed, and carefully calculated the money Qin Zhi paid back.

I thought I was smart, but I didn't expect that people didn't care about these at all.

Not only did he not care, but he also told her that she could have as much as she wanted.

With such a comparison, her petty eyes could not be hidden immediately.

Qin Zhihuan's words made her feel ashamed and hard to put down...

The other party has always been generous, and it is her own pettiness.

It's still too late to wake up, after all, the other party hasn't found out yet.

Taking advantage of not being exposed, Ma Lan took the banknote and let Qin Er go.

When the footsteps gradually disappeared, she hurriedly opened Qin Zhihuan's pillow.

Pull out the IOU from the book.

She wrote the IOU before going out yesterday, and she just waited for Qin Zhi to come back and sign it.

Afraid that he would be embarrassed to let others see him outside, he specially put it in the book under his pillow.

Qin Zhi also reads a book before going to bed every day, so he doesn't worry that she won't read it.

She stayed up yesterday just to talk about this matter, but her stomach hurt so much that she forgot about it.

Fortunately, she had time to pull it out.

On the IOU, it clearly stated that I lent Qin Zhi 200 taels of silver, plus everyone's meal expenses for a day, a total of 210 taels.

He bought her chestnuts fried in sugar, and she kindly confiscated the interest.

These are all temporarily lent by her. If the interest is calculated, she can at least get double the money when she goes back.

But forget it, who made her generous.

Gentlemen love fortune, in a proper way.

If he treats her well, she has to reciprocate.

After careful calculation all morning, I feel that there is no problem with such calculation.

Then he stuffed the IOU into his book, and happily went shopping with them.

"He doesn't need dowry money to make up for it, he can earn it back..."

This sentence turned her into a clown in an instant, and all the calculations made by meditation made her unbearable.

Ma Lan rolled on the bed, annoyed at her villainous heart.

Before she could adjust her mood, Qin Da knocked on the door outside.

"Madam, shall we still go to Shangru Inn today?"

It was only then that Ma Lan remembered that she had made an appointment with Shen Congwen yesterday to discuss other matters today.

She hasn't seen the cook he introduced yet.

The sky is big and the earth is big, making the most money.

"go."

Malan got up from the bed and changed into men's clothes.

Because of the pain, his complexion was much paler than yesterday.

Shen Congwen was amazed when he saw it: "There is such a whitening prescription in the world, and it has changed so much overnight?"

Ma Lan didn't bother to talk to him so much, she just said, "Where's the cook?"

"Don't look at people, you should try her dishes first."

Shen Congwen clapped his hands, and immediately a girl brought out the dishes.

There are twelve dishes in total, four cold dishes and eight hot dishes, all of which are fashionable fruits and vegetables.

Ma Lan tasted them one by one, and was very satisfied with the cooking skills.

She likes to eat. She has eaten a lot of food over the years, and her cooking skills can be ranked among the top three.

"Is it tasty?"

Qin Da and Zi Yan both nodded: "It's delicious."

"Can I see people?"

Ma Lan didn't understand what a cook had to hide.

"Didn't you see it just now?"

"See?"

Malan wondered, she saw a girl serving food just now.

Shen Congwen nodded: "It's that girl."

"girl?"

Qin Da and Zi Yan were shocked: "You mean that the girl made all the dishes on this table?"

Shen Congwen nodded.

I knew that all the cooks in this dynasty were men, and there were no women at all.

There is no other reason. The pot used for cooking is too heavy, and few girls can hold it up.

Therefore, female cooks are equal to poor cooking skills.

They couldn't believe that such a delicious meal was cooked by a girl.

That's amazing.

Seeing how surprised they were, Shen Congwen thought that they looked down on female cooks just like the outsiders.

I can only explain: "In this world, not only men can cook delicious meals, women can too..."

He was explaining eloquently at the front, while Cui Ping at the back looked gloomy.

Sure enough, no one would believe that a woman can also cook well.

It is acceptable for women to wash and cook at home, but it is not acceptable for women to cook delicious meals outside.

"It's okay, Brother Shen."

Cui Ping lifted the curtain and smiled: "If I can't be a cook, I can still do odd jobs, as long as I can stay and do anything."

As long as she can find a place to live, she doesn't have to go back to that home.

There is no need to worry day and night when that bloodless stepfather will suddenly open the door of her room.

It would be a lie to say that she is not sad, but she has to learn to choose.

"Really not?"

The light in Shen Congwen's eyes gradually dimmed, and he thought these three people would be different.

It turned out to be the same.

With the thought that women can't do it, even they are full of praise for the food.

"What doesn't work?"

Ma Lan didn't understand the current situation, she didn't say anything, why didn't she become a cook, she couldn't do it.

"what do you mean……"

Shen Congwen's eyes slowly lit up, and his voice unconsciously became more expectant.

"I'm making a soup and I'll try it."

Before Cui Ping could react, Shen Congwen pushed her to the kitchen.

This time, it was four pairs of eyes staring at her cooking.

Cui Ping was not nervous, and made a mutton soup in a short while.

The mutton has been rotten, and it melts as soon as you sip it in the mouth. Carrots are added to the soup, which brings a touch of sweetness.

Cui Ping watched nervously as the three of them finished their soup and clenched their hands unconsciously.

"Let's talk about wages."

"Salary?"

Cui Ping couldn't believe it: "Are you talking about the salary of the cook?"

"if not?"

"Great, I succeeded, Brother Shen."

Cui Ping burst into tears when she was excited. This was the first time someone hired her as a cook.

He studied art at the age of ten and became a teacher at the age of 13. Because of prejudice, he has been sitting around doing odd jobs.

Unexpectedly, at the age of 20, I could finally be a cook.

How could she not be excited and cry while hugging Shen Congwen.

It took a while to stop the crying and asked timidly: "I, can I bring some little sisters here?"

There are people who learn to cook with her, and their cooking skills are also good.

The rest are the sisters who do odd jobs together, and the work is neat and tidy.

Because it is also the girls who have been harassed a lot, I quit my job.

Now, can she...

"Call me to have a look."

Anyway, you have to recruit people, as long as you work quickly and recruit anyone is not recruiting.

Girls in this world have a difficult life, if they don't help themselves as a woman, who else can they count on.

Shen Congwen was very excited, and he looked at Ma Lan with a little more appreciation.

There are not many people in this world who don't judge people by their appearance.

Cui Ping quickly called her two little sisters.

Malan tried it and found that she was able to work very quickly, much better than the men outside.

All three had strong professional abilities, and Ma Lan hired them on the spot.

According to the market price, [-] Wen per person per month.

The store manages food and housing, and has three days of monthly leave. If the business is good, there will be a bonus at the end of the year.

They were all very happy and kept kowtowing to Ma Lan to say thank you.

Malan was not used to people like this, so he quickly helped them up.

A few people discussed it together. The inn is just starting up. One cook, one handyman, and one waiter are enough.

After thinking about it, Ma Lan stopped recruiting.

Cui Ping is in charge of the kitchen, and Li Caixia is in charge of serving dishes and cleaning.

The two of them were managed by Shen Congwen.

 Ask for recommendations, ask for collections.
