delicious little cook

Chapter 126 The Arrival of the Angel
In the afternoon when Gu Yun came home from school, before the snacks were served, Bai Kou took the place of Meilun in the study to report to the third young master about today's monthly case, how much money he received and how much was sent out, and by the way, asked the third young master what's up next Plan the itinerary or favor expenses, and write down the memo.

After the matter was over, Bai Kou went back to her room to get things, and added something to the memo, she needed more useful stationery.

The next morning, Bai Kou went to work in the East Kitchen with Mrs. Bao's second sister-in-law after training, and got an unexpected news.

The third lady agreed to the second young master's request to build a small kitchen, and with the permission of the eldest lady, she transferred someone from the cook, and she will be regarded as the third bedroom in the future.

At this moment, the male cooks are envious, and the cooks are eager to try, seeing that everyone else is a competitor.

"Our cooks are few in number, so we have transferred another one. What should we do if we have a filial piety banquet?" Lu Doudou whispered beside Bai Kou, "Isn't this just adding to the chaos?"

"Maybe it's just the transfer of people in the past few days, it will take time just to prepare the small kitchen." Bai Kou is very generous, even if there is one less person immediately, she can still have fun on the day of the filial piety banquet.

"I also think that the adjustment has to be done after the filial piety banquet. It's only a month away. The eldest lady will not allow any trouble." Hong Su agreed with Bai Kou's opinion.

"I still don't know who will be transferred. Is it the old cook or our new cooks? Strictly speaking, Bai Kou is still the cook of the East Kitchen. What if the third lady takes a fancy to her?" Wan Qiu asked A very serious problem.

"Eldest Madam will not allow such a thing to happen." Bai Kou didn't even want to think that this was absolutely impossible.

"Bai Kou is being reused. No matter how much the third wife loves her son, she won't be so ignorant." Hong Su also felt that Wan Qiu was thinking too much, "Bai Kou is now leading the job of the deacon of the ice cellar. I have fallen for her, so what should I do with this errand? It’s strange that Da Furen Ken Yun.”

"The second young master is the eldest son of the third family. With such a distinguished status, how many monthly allowances does the chef who serves him get? If he can meet the standard of a first-class cook, it will be a good deal. What are you using your brain for?"

Bai Kou felt that the focus was on money, but Aunt Su had said that a large number of three-bedroom households would cost more. It is curious how much the third wife is willing to pay for a special kitchen for her son.

"That's right, first-class cooks get two taels of silver regardless of gender."

"There is a big difference in the monthly rates of cooks and cooks at different levels in our mansion. The third class only has five hundred coins, and the second class can get one tael of silver and rice noodles. Moreover, the cooks and cooks live in the mansion on weekdays and have all the food and clothing. It doesn’t cost money, and the monthly bills are taken home and spent on family members.”

"If the third lady gives two taels of silver, I'm afraid the first-class cook won't be tempted. If you are transferred to the third room, you still get two taels. It's a loss. The servants of the public and the servants of the third room, The difference is quite big." Lu Doudou rolled her eyes and said in a low voice.

"The first-class cooks are all getting old. It's hard for the third wife to decide whether she wants such an old cook. Maybe she wants a young one? The young ones only work for a few more years." Bai Kou shrugged irresponsibly. .

"Bai Kou, did you hear something?"

"No, I don't know at all, and the third young master never mentioned it to me."

"The third young master didn't mention it to you, so it must have nothing to do with you. Well, you've been excluded from this matter." Lu Doudou patted Bai Kou's shoulder and smiled.

"Well, I'm just watching the fun from the sidelines."

"Bai Kou, tell me, if the third lady chooses someone from among us, do you want us to come over?" Hong Su looked at Bai Kou nervously, attracting the eyes of Lu Doudou and Wan Qiu.

"Want to hear the truth?"

The three girls nodded in unison.

"Let's not talk about the difference between the servants of the public and the servants of the third bedroom. You also know about the housework of the third bedroom's wives and concubines. I think it's better not to get involved. I would rather serve the boss in a flat This is the real master. In the future, when the family is divided in the mansion, everyone can still be mentioned as the cooks of the Duke's mansion, so those who have been transferred can still have this title?"

The girls giggled happily, looked at each other, and felt confident.

After lunch time, as soon as Bai Kou returned to Wenling Courtyard, she was stopped by Mei Lun Meihuan who was waiting for her, and gave her a small package filled with books, and took her to the young master's study to instruct her to pick up the bookshelves.

Inside the package were the collections that the Eldest Master bought from his visit to the book market in the morning. The Second Young Master and the Third Young Master will be in the autumn this year, and the Eldest Young Master will be in the spring next year. No matter how much the Third Master favors the concubine, he cannot but care about the fame of the eldest son, so the three masters are together in the morning. We went to the book market together to find something useful for our sons.

There is a special place on the bookshelf for new books that have not been read. The third young master has his own preference for organizing the bookshelf, and the girls are not allowed to have more hands, just plastering and cleaning, and messing up the rest.

After taking a lunch break, Bai Kou led the girls to work in the small kitchen. Through the wall of the kitchen and the wall of the passageway outside, they heard the noise from Babu Alley, buzzing and chaotic, but couldn't make out a word.

Aunt Su hurriedly went out to inquire, but before she could leave the hospital, a young servant rushed in and spoke in a hurry without even breathing.

"An angel has come to proclaim the decree! The prince is about to ascend to the throne!"

Everyone was startled, and after a few breaths of silence, they came back to their senses.

"Ah!" The girls jumped and screamed excitedly.

"Have you announced the decree?" Bai Kou bypassed the obviously crazy crowd and hurried forward.

"Not yet, the angel has just entered the door! It is said that it is a high official of the court! The guard of honor occupies half of the street! The butler told us to report everywhere, and the angel is being entertained in front."

"We are first-class dukes. The one who came to announce the decree is naturally the Minister of Rites. After the decree is announced, the angel will stay for some snacks, right?"

"He is waiting now." The boy frowned and said hesitantly. After all, he didn't see it with his own eyes, but just heard it from others.

"Are you going to report elsewhere? Do you have time to sit down and eat a cold cake?"

"I only come here! Someone else is going elsewhere!" The boy immediately replied cheerfully.

Bai Kou smiled and pointed to the resting place for the child to sit there. She turned and went back to the kitchen to pick up four steamed buns from a plate for him to eat.

The girls finally calmed down at this moment, Meilun quickly went back to the room, took five hundred coins from the cash box in the young master's bedroom, and came out to reward the boy, the child happily took it, put it and finished eating plate to salute and leave.

The little servant walked forward, and the eldest lady sent another second-class girl to report the news. Bai Kou also stayed for some snacks first, and Mei Lun went to the room to get the reward. Such a happy event, the standard of reward is usually a month .

In addition to reporting the letter, this girl also asked Bai Kou to make more snacks. The family has sent a car to the family school to pick up the young masters. Now there are incense tables in the front yard and the back house waiting to receive orders. The old lady He and the wives and ladies of each house are going to Jicheng hall one after another.

The objects of the decree are the Eldest Master, the Eldest Wife, the Third Young Master and the Old Matriarch, but because the three brothers have no separation, the other masters, wives, young masters and ladies at home must come forward to listen to the decree, otherwise it is a serious crime of neglecting the angel and disrespecting the emperor. .
