delicious little cook

Chapter 121 To be my subordinate, you have to be obedient

Everyone worked all night, hung the sausages all over the bamboo pole, and finally put the bamboo pole under the big tree in the yard. The tall tree crown touched an eaves, leaving a fixed shadow and ventilation on all sides. , is the most ideal place to dry sausages.

After a night, Bai Kou got up while making breakfast, went to check on the sausages, and found that the sausages had dried up in the summer night wind, so she asked someone to take them away, cut them into sections along the tether, and put them on the table. Put an extra layer on the steamer for steaming buns, and steam the sausages together.

When Gu Yun sat down at the table to eat breakfast, fresh and delicious fried sausages were brought to his table.

After sending the third young master out, Bai Kou practiced boxing a few times in the yard, changed his clothes, and divided up the remaining small sausages in the kitchen, leaving a portion for Uncle Yan, who asked the maids to return the enema tools She took some of them together, and packed the rest in a food box, and she took them to the ice cellar for storage.

In the small courtyard of the ice cellar, only Mistress Shui was sitting alone in her hut.

"Sister Kou is here."

The third lady Shui came out to greet her, then turned around and went into the house to get a lantern, and accompanied Bai Kou down the ice cellar to put the sausage away.

Bai Kou opened the food box and took out a wrapped oil-paper bag and handed it to Mistress Shui, and said with a smile: "This is the fresh sausage I made last night, it's already steamed, you can take it home and eat whatever you want, whether it's fried or grilled." Well, it’s also good to boil it in water, try it out.”

The lantern shook, and Mistress Shui visibly shivered, before reaching out her other hand to take the paper bag respectfully.

"Thank you, Miss Kou."

"Let's go, if you have something to say."

The two returned to the ground, Bai Kou was sitting in the hut, and Mistress Shui was busy pouring herbal tea for her, and then stood in front of her with her head down, not daring to talk nonsense.

"When did Mama Pang take him away?"

"They didn't come to the ice cellar. Mother Pang sent someone to say that she stopped them at the back door and drove them all home. They will send a new group of people in the afternoon."

"Do you know why they were dismissed?"

"I know. The thing that I asked them to keep secret the day before yesterday spread to the whole house yesterday. The eight of them blamed each other and quarreled, saying that they didn't do their own business. They still wanted to complain to you when Sister Kou came over. Who knew you yesterday Didn't show up all day."

"Since I knew the news was leaked, why did I come here? I ate my candy the day before yesterday, sweetened my mouth, promised it face to face, and turned around and refused to accept it. How dare I keep them for use. Which of the eight of them is the real one?" It's none of my business to be wronged. I only look at the results. Could it be that I thought I was joking? Why is it that a woman in her 20s who has given birth to a child has no brains at all? The master's jokes are so easy to tell and good-looking? I still want to ask Are you jealous of my position, deliberately causing trouble for me and trying to drive me down!"

"Oh, Miss Kou, we dare not think so! You are the most appropriate seat!"

"Miss Shui, let me tell you clearly that I have a little conflict with Aunt Fu's courtyard, and the conflicts I have had with her subordinates are all conflicts. I'm afraid this problem has been completely settled. You might as well think about it carefully. In the relationship with your family, is it on my side or on their side."

"Sister Kou, look at what you said, our ice cellar is the property of the public, and the two of us are headed by a big master. Can my wife's family stand with the people of Aunt Fu? They are three-bedroom, waiting for the old lady Jun Bainian, you may have to take them away when you split up."

"Miss Shui, your mind is quite clear."

"The relationship between the servants in the mansion is roughly divided in this way. My family is all serving the head room, and I have no friendship with the servants serving Aunt Fu."

"That's good. Since we are on one side, I won't hide from you what you should know in the future. I also hope that you can share my worries and lead the wives to work hard."

"Don't worry, Sister Kou, I will train these newcomers well when they come here."

"Don't worry, wait for the newcomers to come and observe them for a few days. Who knows if there are other problems among them. The eldest lady only approved four people, and the useless ones have to be picked out."

"Originally, the eight people in the previous batch, after observing these few days, I know who will stay and who will go. Who knew that it would be quiet if they all left after turning around."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. Help me pick out four good ones. It doesn't matter if there are not enough people in this batch. Mama Pang will make up a third batch."

"Sister Kou, don't worry, I'll be sure to handle it properly."

Bai Kou smiled slightly, drank the herbal tea in the cup, got up and went to the east kitchen.

Third Aunt Nie saw Bai Kou, and the two exchanged a knowing smile. Everyone in the East Kitchen also learned from the gossip how Bai Kou dealt with the leaking daughter-in-law. The house of the daughter-in-law who has been wronged and lost her errand, I am afraid that the guy who really leaked the secret will call the door.

Yue Li's usual easy job of money was ruined by such a talkative guy, who would not be furious.

After lunch break in the afternoon, Bai Kou told the girls what preparations to make, and rushed to the ice cellar by herself. Not long after, Mama Pang led a new group of eight people in and handed them over to Bai Kou.

This group is also all daughter-in-laws under the age of 30. They all know what happened in the past few days. After Pang's mother left, they still dare not breathe in front of Bai Kou.

They are all idlers with no errands. This time the ice cellar will be filled with staff. They will be selected from among them. The previous batch of people made mistakes and were dismissed. It is their turn to be named. Everyone wants to stay and work hard to make money to supplement their families.

Bai Kou beat them up with this matter, telling them to remember the master they serve, to do things when they have something to do, and to talk about the right and wrong of the master when they have nothing to do.

The daughters-in-law didn't even dare to say it, they were very respectful, and treated Bai Kou as if she was a high-ranking big shot.

Seeing their stance, Bai Kou let them go, handed them over to Mistress Shui to learn the rules, and went to the ice cellar to bring a bag of ice back to Wenlingyuan for snacks.

On the day of the May [-]th festival, the mansion probably gave out filial piety, and the rewards for the servants were also generous. In addition to eating during the festival, each person also received a little reward according to their rank, but it had to be given out according to the monthly regulations in the middle of the month to save money. Do things twice.

At noon, there was also a banquet in Rong En Hall, and all the sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren were invited to the banquet. The whole family celebrated the festival happily. He also praised him that the child has finally grown up and sensible.

After the festival, it was the eighth day of the fifth lunar month in a blink of an eye. Zeng Zhu summoned people to make a sufficient amount of red and white bean paste, and specially used other containers to pack the amount that Bai Kou asked for.

In the early morning of the ninth day of the new year, Bai Kou finished cooking breakfast for the third young master and rushed to the East Kitchen. Lu Doudou and the others had followed Bai Kou's instructions in advance and kneaded the dough for her first.

One hundred small snacks, as soon as there are more helpers, the progress will be quicker. Bai Kou made a shape, kneading the ones wrapped in red bean paste into the shape of chickens, and the ones wrapped in white bean paste into the shape of ducklings. Fifty pieces each, hand in Let Lu Doudou and the others do it, and she frees up her hands to concentrate on serving the oven.

When everyone was busy, the second lady sent a maid over and brought ten beautiful dim sum boxes to hold the one hundred roasted fruits. Seeing that the oven was already baking the first oven, she sat under the big tree and waited in peace. with.
