Chapter 111

When he returned to Wenling Courtyard, Gu Yun had already returned. He felt that the girl next to the second brother was a bit stupid and pitiful. He felt sorry for the second brother who had never been served by a smart girl, so he didn't bother to see the stupid girl dangling in front of his eyes. Go, it's better to come back early to be quiet.

Bai Kou prepared everyone's lunch on time. After eating and taking a nap, she sat under the window and compiled the drafts of the discussion. One-to-one correspondence, dispatching staff step by step, because Bai Kou has even planned the cooking time of each dish, which dishes to prepare in the first time, and which dishes to be prepared in the second time, are all listed on the paper. It's really not her fault if it can go wrong.

At this time, another person came to the sewing room to tailor clothes for the third young master. The ancestral hall sacrifice on the third anniversary of his death is a serious matter for the masters, so they need to make some necessary new clothes.

Bai Kou, who was sitting in front of the window and writing, saw someone coming in the yard, but she didn't pay much attention to it. She was so absorbed in writing that she didn't even know when he left until she finished writing, cleared the table and went to the front yard to wash her hands and prepare for snacks At that time, I learned from the mouths of the girls that the third young master had grown taller, and he had to make all the clothes, shoes and socks inside and out.

That is to say, the third young master had actually been wearing old clothes that didn't fit well for quite a while, and the two beautiful girls who were serving him personally didn't notice that the young master's sleeves were a bit short.

For such a serious dereliction of duty, the eldest lady will definitely reprimand them both heavily.

Everyone has worked together for many years, and they all have a heart for Meilun Meihuan, and they are somewhat absent-minded when they work around Bai Kou to make snacks.

However, the more you worry about something, the more you worry about it.

The dough in the basin hadn't been kneaded smooth yet, Mama Pang led the two little girls and walked in from the courtyard door with dark faces. Aunt Su was the first to greet her and salute, and opened her mouth to call for someone to send a message to the upper room.

"Not busy. Where's Bai Kou?"

"Bai Kou is making snacks."

"Go and call her, Madam has given you a reward."

Aunt Su glanced at the girl behind Pang's mother who was holding the tray, responded, and went to the small kitchen.

In an instant, everyone in the small kitchen ran out together, Bai Kou's hands were covered with batter, and he didn't know whether to wash his hands first or thank him first.

Pang's mother didn't mind this little thing, and announced that the reason for the reward was because the young master had grown taller, and his latest body size was quite different from the previous one. Then, under the envious eyes of the girls, the reward was handed over to Aunt Su to accept it on her behalf. , she took the little girl straight to the room.

Everyone looked in the direction of the upper room with sympathy and worry on their faces, but no one dared to eavesdrop on the corner. Aunt Su put the two trays of rewards back in her room, and waited for Bai Kou to finish making the snacks and bring them back by herself, so she didn't want this danger Always send her into the room.

Eavesdropping on the old mother next to the madam scolding the big girl?Why bother, they all work together in the same courtyard, even hearing a few words is embarrassing.

Bai Kou called everyone to continue working, to chop the meat that should be chopped, to light the fire if it should be made, and promised Sixth Young Master when will he cook the roasted pork jerky.

When Mama Pang led the girl out of the upper room, her face was finally not as dark as before, and she smelled the fragrance from the small kitchen, and she followed her feet.

Aunt Su was waiting on the porch, and warmly invited Mama Pang and the three of them to rest in the shade of the porch, served fruit iced tea and fried small pies, and insisted on keeping them until the first batch of pork jerky was baked, and Bai Kou cut it. A large sheet of dried pork was brought back for them as a snack.

Eating and taking again, Pang's mother's emotions were soothed, and she couldn't help complaining to Aunt Su that the young master spoiled the girl, so obvious things were discovered by the people in the sewing room first.

Aunt Su said a few words of relief, saying that she would supervise the girls' work well, and sent Mama Pang away with good words.

After that, these girls still didn't step into the main courtyard until Meihuan came out to ask for tea with the young master's tea set. She had changed her clothes and looked clean, but she was a little depressed, giving off a forced smile.

No one else can persuade them, this is indeed their dereliction of duty, the young master's clothes don't fit well, these two close-fitting girls should be the first to find out, the young master is careless and doesn't care about clothes, but the girl can't be too lenient.

Meihuan didn't say anything, and everyone didn't ask, she brought boiling water to make tea for the young master, Meihuan took the tea set, turned around and left.

This unnatural atmosphere didn't dissipate until the sixth young master came home from school to eat some snacks. Bai Kou washed his hands, went to Aunt Su's house to take the reward back to his room to tidy up.

There are two trays of rewards, one is four pieces of clothing in pink, green, blue, pink and purple, and the other is hairpin, hairpin, hairpin, rouge and gouache, which are commonly used by girls.

Bai Kou locked the things in the closet and used them after the mansion officially released the filial piety.

The Sixth Young Master had eaten and drank enough, and went back with delicious dried pork. Bai Kou showed the Third Young Master the written kitchen arrangement plan.

"Everything about the East Kitchen is under control, please tell the third young master to tell the eldest lady that you don't need to worry about it anymore."

Gu Yun read it carefully page by page, then sorted it out and put it back on the table.

"It would be nice if I let you take over sooner."

"That's not necessarily the case, third young master, Wen Gushan has a strong temper, he wants fame and wealth, and he doesn't like others to steal his things, and he didn't trust newcomers at that time. Fortunately, he was finally suspended. This is the most fortunate thing." .”

"I'll take it to the old man and his wife to see at night, so as to widen their hearts."

"Third young master, remember to take it back and return it to the maidservant. This is the only one, and Zeng Zhu has to take care of it."

"You won't make an extra copy?"

"This isn't the final draft yet. We'll have to wait until we've tried the dishes to make sure the menu doesn't change. The servant girl just doesn't want the lady to worry about the kitchen anymore, so she should devote all her energy to preparing the sacrifice."

Gu Yun couldn't help showing a smile, "You tell the kitchen tomorrow, if everything goes well, everyone will be rewarded afterwards."

"Yes, Third Young Master."

After dinner, Gu Yun first took the plan to his parents, then went to pay his respects to the old grandmother, took his leave, went to his parents' place for a while, and brought the plan back.

Bai Kou led the girls in the room to sort out today's gifts for the whole day. Mix rice, flour, grain and oil, and move them to the storage room next to the oven room to eat slowly. Flowers and rouge gouache were also given to them, and everyone picked what they needed at will. Bai Kou also set aside some for Aunt Nie and Lu Doudou, and there were some leftovers. Bai Kou planned to wait for the newcomers in the ice cellar to make up for them as a newcomer gift.

A group of people worked together, which can be regarded as tidying up the room. After serving the third young master's supper, there is no need to rush to write articles. Bai Kou spread out his pen and ink, and practiced two pages of copybooks before going to bed. Tadpoles, big and small handwriting, sighed and shook his head, went out to wash pens, then turned off the lights and went to bed.
