With space in hand, who dares to mess with the villain's stepmother?

Chapter 28 028. Zhaodi
Hearing the ridicule from the crowd, the woman was not as high-spirited as before, she was a teenage girl with a thin skin, it was even more difficult to face at this time, she immediately pouted and cried .

But Gu Xiaoxiao was not used to her, her voice was still indifferent, but she looked at the two of them and said to Xiao Mu, "I don't like these two 'rat shit', you can figure it out!"

Xiao Mu naturally had nothing to say, no matter what, Mrs. Gu is much more important than those two, since she has spoken, she must be satisfied.

Then he said to those two people: "You can leave now, we don't need you anymore!"

Seeing that they were about to be dismissed, the two panicked immediately. They didn't expect that Mrs. Gu was so powerful that even Mrs. Xiao's family would listen to her!
At this point, he could no longer get angry anymore, his legs softened and he knelt down, crying and begging: "Miss Gu, we were wrong! Your lord does not remember the faults of villains, please forgive us! We will obey you in everything from now on! Please! You, don't drive us away, we finally found a job!"

There are few industries in the small town, and there are many people. There are still many jobs that only need men. What's more, most of the properties are robbed by people through the back door or paying for management. Therefore, it is even more difficult for women from ordinary families to find a job. They were so nervous when a new store hired them.

But Gu Xiaoxiao is not doing charity either, so she let go after crying a few times, keeping these two scourges, sooner or later troubles will arise!
She sighed softly in her heart, don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to yourself.They value this job, and others still rely on this job to continue their lives. They are all women, so why tit for tat!
Seeing that Mrs. Gu was still unmoved, Xiao Mu didn't hesitate anymore, and asked someone to drive the two out.

The cries became farther and farther away, and people passing by on the street stopped to watch, wondering what happened.

Xiao Mu also took into account the reputation of the store and asked someone to give a simple explanation.

After the common people knew about it, they also knew that this was really an internal matter of the store, and they couldn't care about it, so they dispersed and stopped watching the fun.

The matter was resolved in this way, but the candidates for pastry learning hadn't been selected yet. Gu Xiaoxiao continued to look at it, and finally decided to select two girls and one boy as the first batch of students.

Women are more dexterous and suitable for making pastries, and men also have a general understanding, so they can be used as a substitute, or help with some physical work, such as kneading dough and so on.

With this in mind, the candidate was decided.The two girls are named Pan'er and Xiaotao.Boys are called Daqiang.

If you choose a good person, the crowd will disperse. Those who are not selected will naturally feel a little bit disappointed. If you are selected, not only will your salary be higher, but you will also have a better chance of winning if you have learned a craft and will not work here in the future. .

The three people who were selected were also very happy. Gu Xiaoxiao asked them to go to the backyard to prepare materials and so on. After waiting for her for a while, the three of them answered "yes" and went to the backyard.

And everyone else went about their business.

Xiao Mu wanted to ask the girl who had a bad smell how to deal with it, but before she could say anything, Gu Xiaoxiao called out to the girl.

Originally, the girl was still thankful for not driving her away, and wanted to thank that Mrs. Gu, after all, she had vented her anger.

She was still hesitating whether to go forward, but when she suddenly heard Mrs. Gu calling her, she raised her calm heart just now, fearing that she would be driven away now.

She walked over cautiously, stood still in front of Gu Xiaoxiao, lowered her head without saying a word, and did not dare to raise her head to look at Gu Xiaoxiao and Xiao Mu in front of her, still hunched over with her chest closed.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Mu frowned calmly, not quite understanding the girl's state.

Gu Xiaoxiao glanced at him and said nothing.A noble young man like Xiao Mu who was born to be praised by others naturally cannot understand what it feels like to feel inferior!
Although the Xiao family has fallen, and some people mocked him behind his back, that was just talking about external affairs, and looking at Xiao Mu himself, there is nothing to be picky about.

In addition to not being as beautiful as her family's husband-in-law.

Of course, as far as Zhou Zeyun's appearance is concerned, it can be said to be very rare, and Xiao Mu is also outstanding among young talents other than Zhou Zeyun.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Gu Xiaoxiao cast his eyes on the girl in front of him again, smiled lightly, and said, "What's your name?"

The girl spoke slowly, "If you go back to my wife, the villain is called Zhaodi."

Gu Xiaoxiao nodded, her eyes darkened.

Zhaodi, in this era, should be a commonly used name for a girl in the family. As the name suggests, Zhaodi synonymously invites a younger brother.

Here, the feudal society's thoughts of confinement are so serious that they think that children are the continuation of the family, and sons are the incense of the ancestors.

And the daughter can only marry as another woman, and continue the incense for other people's family.

So here, female babies are born lower than male babies, no one is looking forward to her arrival, some are strangled to death when they are born, or thrown into wells or abandoned, and those who are lucky enough to survive are just working as cows and horses for the family , as an unpaid servant.

Women from rich families can still be more delicate, because their marriage can also bring contributions to the family, and marrying a good family is also an important turning point in their lives.

But like a girl in a small village, it is very difficult to have a bright future in this life, and she can only rely on her husband's family to live.

Gu Xiaoxiao understands Zhaodi's inferiority complex better, outsiders' irresponsible remarks are no match for family members' slanderous words.

From the name, it can be seen that Zhaodi must have a hard time at home!
She sighed softly in her heart, but there was nothing she could do, but what she could do was never let her be rejected by others because of the smell.

Immediately, he took out two bottles of medicine from his sleeve, which were antibacterial agent and antiperspirant. They were contained in very simple small porcelain bottles, which would not arouse suspicion.

Pass it to Zhaodi and say: "Here is this for you. From now on, apply it on your armpits every morning and evening. You should also pay attention to your hygiene. Eat less greasy or irritating food, and eat more white-fleshed melons and fruits. It will improve a lot."

Zhao Di raised her head in surprise when she heard the words, and looked at the woman with a gentle smile in front of her. She felt that she was not much younger than her, but it just made her feel a little bit of trust in her heart.

She looked at the two small porcelain bottles in Nayu's hand again, and said hesitantly, "How much is this...?"

Gu Xiaoxiao chuckled lightly and said, "I don't want your money, this is for you, take it!"

Zhaodi quickly waved her hands, "No, no, no, how can I take my lady's things for nothing!"

"Hmm..." Seeing her persistence, Gu Xiaoxiao thought about it and said, "This one is not expensive, it's very cheap. If you must pay, then it will be deducted from your salary next month, how about it?"

Hearing this, Zhaodi finally looked a little happier, her eyes revealed a girlish light, then she thought of something, her eyes darkened again, she glanced quietly at Xiao Mu who was silent beside her, then lowered her head and said: "But...my salary is very little, I don't know if it is enough to pay?"

"Don't worry, I said that these two things are not expensive, and they must be enough!" Gu Xiaoxiao said patiently.

She always has a little more sympathy for people with unfortunate backgrounds, especially those who have parents who are hard to be happy.

And she didn't really intend to deduct it from her wages. The potion is really not expensive, and the medicinal materials are not rare. What's more, this medicine is exclusively prepared by her, so it is priceless.

She said that only to reassure him.

And Zhaodi really felt relieved, took the two small porcelain bottles solemnly, and bowed deeply to Gu Xiaoxiao, "Thank you, Mrs. Gu!"

She is really grateful to this Mrs. Gu, regardless of whether the medicine she gave can cure her own odor, she said that Mrs. Gu is the only one who still hugs her after learning that she has a stench from birth to now. With a friendly attitude, and she could tell that it wasn't an act, those clear eyes were full of sincerity.

The little girl didn't know how to be grateful, but she just promised in her heart that even if she worked hard for Mrs. Gu in the future, she would be willing!
Gu Xiaoxiao raised her hand to gently support Zhaodi, who was still bowing, and signaled her to get up. When Zhaodi straightened her waist, she said again: "You can stay in the backyard wing room. You can use this medicine for a few days first, and it will be fine. Do some chores in the backyard, and when your body recovers, let's learn pastry with Xiaotao and the others!"

Suddenly Zhaodi's eyes were filled with light, and slowly some tears filled her eyes, some couldn't believe it, "Really...Really? Can I really learn how to make pastry from you?" The voice was slightly crying.

Gu Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.

Now Zhaodi was even more excited, bowed three times suddenly, and said to Gu Xiaoxiao after standing still: "Thank you Mrs. Gu! Thank you so much! I will definitely study hard! I will definitely not let you down!"

Maybe her ten years of suffering is just to save her good luck for meeting Mrs. Gu!Zhao Di thought in her heart.

Xiao Mu originally wanted to remind Gu Xiaoxiao to think it over again, but when he saw the girl's eyes were filled with crystal clear light, she no longer looked like the "old woman" before, and finally had a trace of silk in her body that fit her. The vitality of the age.For a while, he couldn't say anything to make Gu Xiaoxiao think about it.

After Zhao Di bowed her knees and left, Xiao Mu finally stepped forward to speak, and said in a slightly teasing voice: "I never thought that Mrs. Gu knows medical skills!"

Knowing that he was referring to the two bottles of potions, Gu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows lightly, and replied, "I know a lot more! Why? You want two bottles too?"

Xiao Mu's face darkened.Sure enough, he still can't be too presumptuous in front of Gu Xiaoxiao!
Then he coughed lightly, concealed the embarrassment on his face, looked seriously at the direction of the backyard where Zhaodi left, and said softly to Gu Xiaoxiao: "Are you really going to let her learn how to make pastry? Why?"

Gu Xiaoxiao also followed Xiao Mu's gaze, squinted her eyes slightly, and curled her lips slightly, "There is an unyielding energy in her eyes, I like it!"

Xiao Mu turned her head to look at Gu Xiaoxiao when she heard the words, smiled lightly, then looked in the same direction as before, and said softly: "Indeed! This girl is a little different!"

Then he paused, looked at Gu Xiaoxiao and said with a smile: "Do you think that her expression at a certain moment is quite similar to yours!"

"Really?" She smiled, looked at Xiao Mu as well, and said, "I'll take it as your compliment!"

Both of them are smiling.

After that, Gu Xiaoxiao went to the backyard to teach those people how to use the big oven, and Zhaodi also followed suit.It's just that she was a little far away from the three of them, consciously keeping a distance.She still has a little bit of inferiority in her heart.

After thinking for a while, Gu Xiaoxiao decided to make egg tarts for the first pastry in the shop!
The first thing is to make egg tart skin.Knead the flour, milk, sugar, salt and eggs together to form a smooth dough, wake up for a while, then roll out the dough, wrap the butter slices in the middle, continue to roll thin and overlap, repeat several times .

Then roll the dough into long strips, cut into small doses, and pinch them into round shapes.Because there is no tin foil, let's use gold foil instead. Anyway, the cost is Xiao Mu's money.

In this way, the egg tart skin is ready, and the next step is to make the egg tart liquid. There is no cream in this era, so let's make an egg tart liquid without butter.

Pour the sugar into the milk first, stir until it melts, then pour the egg yolk liquid into the milk and stir evenly, and sieve the egg tart liquid, it will be finer, and the egg tart liquid is complete.

Finally, pour the egg tart liquid into the egg tart shell, arrange it on the iron plate, put it in the oven gently, and wait for a quarter of an hour before it will be out of the pan.

Gu Xiaoxiao is also a little nervous. After all, this oven is still not as advanced as modern ovens, and the heat cannot be adjusted, so it has to be felt.

She looked at the steaming egg tart that had just come out of the oven. Seeing this egg tart in a foreign land, she had a familiar feeling, as if she had returned to the end of the world.

Small golden egg tarts came into view one by one, and the layer of egg liquid on the surface was baked with small black spots, which is normal.

Gu Xiaoxiao signaled Xiao Mu to taste it first. After all, he is the boss, and she still has a little bit of caution in her heart, let him try the poison!In short, you can't lose your stomach.

Xiao Mu was naturally not humble, he believed in Gu Xiaoxiao's technique very much, and when he saw the golden bowl-shaped thing, he couldn't help swallowing.

The aroma of the food has long flowed into the nostrils of everyone present, with a slightly sweet aroma that lures people's taste buds.

The pastry turned out to be hot!This is what people who are used to eating cold pastries here are curious about.And what Gu Xiaoxiao wants to do is to arouse everyone's curiosity, and then consciously taste it, so that he can make money!

Xiao Mu carefully picked up the egg tart wrapped in gold foil to fix it, it was a little hot.Then hold it up to your nose and sniff lightly for a while, it is really a sweet smell that you have never smelled before.

Seeing him like this, Gu Xiaoxiao curled her lips in disgust.Who is this affectation?She didn't want to admit knowing him!
Xiao Mu, who didn't know that he was severely disgusted, slowly put the egg tart into his mouth, took a small bite, and behaved gracefully.

In an instant, the tip of the tongue touched the soft and tender taste, and it was also mixed with crispy meringue. The perfect fusion of eggs and milk did not feel fishy at all, and the egg liquid melted in the mouth without chewing at all.

Xiao Mu's eyes lit up immediately, and he smiled softly.Seeing him like this, Gu Xiaoxiao knew he had succeeded.

Fortunately, my title as a chef is undefeated!

Then Gu Xiaoxiao tasted another one by herself, and praised herself severely in her heart.

It also let the four people who were waiting to see through to taste it, and assigned all the people in the store to taste it.

Food must be tasted by yourself before you can recommend it to customers. If you have never eaten it yourself and don’t know what it tastes like, then customers will not understand it.

After the clerks tasted all of them, they all showed surprise expressions without exception.

　A quarter of an hour is equal to 15 minutes now, and a stick of incense is equal to half an hour now.

　　A small reminder, although the food practices in the article are based on evidence, it is recommended not to try it, it is better to learn to cook according to the recipe, after all, ancient times and modern times are different.

　　Finally, the old saying, please vote more, bookmark more, thank you, I will bow to everyone here!
