delicious little cook

Chapter 142 No matter how many things you have to do calmly
The next morning, when the third young master went to school and Bai Kou went to learn how to ride a horse, Mama Pang brought a strong servant girl to Wenling courtyard to carry boxes.

There is a small warehouse in the back building of Zhongmingyuan. The boxes listed on the list to continue to be used but packed are moved there, and the rest that are no longer used are moved to other warehouses to wait for unified processing.

The official renovation of the yard started after the death day. Fortunately, it was thought that the third young master was going to move back to live, so all the rooms were emptied at that time. It was a completely empty yard, and the craftsmen started to work. It’s very convenient. After a few days of drying at one go, it was completely finished by the end of June. Even the ground dragon and the flue of the fire wall that have not been used for several years have been carefully cleaned several times. In winter, every room in the yard will be Warm.

Pang's mother's work efficiency is also very high. When Bai Kou came back from equestrian training, all the packed boxes were moved, leaving only the three necessary daily necessities in the main room and the girls' own packages. After the servants' rooms are allocated, they will move their own things.

"Bai Kou, with you, I really know how to pick things up! Mama Pang and the servants said that today the yard was really easy to move. Last time we moved out, it was like ransacking the house." All the girls laughed around Bai Kou .

"Just think of moving the yard as a move. Keep what you should keep and throw away what should be thrown away. Don't think that you may still need it in a few days. Basically, items that will be classified into this category have no chance to be used again. Wait. When the third young master comes back, ask him if he plans to move his main house someday, his study room if he wants to clean it up himself, and settle all the things that should be settled early. We have other things to do, so as not to be troubled too much. Pulling energy everywhere."

"What new errands are there? The holiday will be next month, and it's not our turn to prepare."

"Sister Meilun is going out to meet people, isn't this a business?"

"Ahaha!" The little girls laughed shrilly, and Meilun's face was as red as if it was cooked.

"I've sent a note to Yan Bo earlier, just waiting for him to coordinate the day."

"Would you like to wait? In another month, the young master will be participating in Qiu Wei. It's not good to distract him at such a time. If Madam finds out, we will definitely blame us." Mei Lu flinched a little. .

"There is a small temple in Bajingfang, why don't we go there directly to meet? It's like sightseeing. But there may be many young masters following to watch the fun."

"No, no, it's better to be Empress Qiu Wei, don't interfere with the young master's reading."

"Have you figured it out? When I've figured it out, I'll write to Bo Yan and ask him to arrange the days after Qiu Wei."

"Well, it will be set after Qiu Wei, no change, any day."

"it is good."

Bai Kou went back to the room to change clothes, wrote a new note for the girl to send to Uncle Yan, and then she went to the East Kitchen.

After Mengmei was formally transferred to the third bedroom, the east kitchen became much quieter. Every day, everyone worked step by step, and no one made any fuss. Even Third Aunt Nie complained that life became boring without fresh gossip.

But today, when Bai Kou stepped into the East Kitchen, all the cooks and cooks in the compound were chatting in small groups after a few days.

Lu Doudou dragged Bai Kou to participate in their small group discussion.

"Wen Gushan wants to come back, have you heard?"

"No, when's the news?"

"Just this morning, it is said that it has been conveyed to the eldest lady."

"I don't know at all, don't let him lie."

"He said that he has quit smoking, recovered from his illness, and can come back to work."

"How did you know that?"

"His wife told the gatekeeper at the back door, and the doctor's diagnosis proves it."

"Okay, I'll go back and inquire about it."

"Do you think he will have another moth if he comes back?"

"It's hard to say. It's also possible that the family really has no money to use, so they have to come back to work quickly. We got so much money for the previous two big banquets. It's a ghost if he isn't jealous."

"That's right! Now that the filial piety period is over, the masters of the mansion are here for all kinds of entertainment. We can get a reward of [-] Wen for a small banquet. If Wen Gushan comes back and continues to be the manager, he will definitely take the biggest prize. It's several taels of silver at a time, who wouldn't want it!" Lu Doudou thought it must be the reason.

"Don't be in a hurry, wait until I go back to inquire, our kitchen has finally been tidied up, so don't make it dirty again."

The girls calmed down and stopped discussing the matter. After a while, the stewards came out to arrange errands, and everyone started to cook lunch step by step.

When Bai Kou finished her work and was free, Zeng Zhu dragged her aside. The three managers were very concerned about the news that Wen Gushan was coming back, and Bai Kou repeatedly promised them to go back to find out the exact news.

After cooking the lunch, Bai Kou went back to Wenling Courtyard for lunch. Meilun handed her a note from the second lady, asking her to cook a table of wine and food for the third lady's birthday on the tenth day of July, and also wanted a new one. Dessert, having guests over for dinner.

Bai Kou took the note back to the room and wrote three notes, one to ask Mama Pang about Wen Gushan's coming back, one to the second wife's recipe, and one to Yan Bo to ask for help. Pure and transparent crystal cups, for the third lady to make small desserts that even novices in the kitchen can make, and at the same time let people wash mung beans and cook mung bean soup.

When Yan Bo sent someone to deliver a set of twelve white crystal cups, the second wife also wrote back the contents of the menu, and she was not very satisfied with a few dishes.

Bai Kou put away this letter for the time being, not in a hurry to reply, she made dessert first.

After the mung bean soup is boiled into a paste, add the fish bone glue and stir evenly. After it cools down, add honey and mix well. Then pour it into the twelve crystal cups, and then pour the excess into the big soup bowl. Take it together Chill in the freezer.

Mother Pang's reply letter arrived at this time.

The letter said that the matter of Wen Gushan was true. This morning, someone sent a message to ask about his reinstatement. Now the eldest lady is not sure whether he really quit smoking and recovered from his illness, and is still hesitating.

Bai Kou wrote back immediately, asking Mrs. Pang to suggest that Mrs. Pang appoint a new doctor to Wengu Mountain. His chronic lung disease caused by smoking for many years will be more serious in winter. It is a typical winter disease. If he takes advantage of the current dog season It is also possible to get better with treatment, but it is not so easy to recover as before.

When the third young master returned home in the afternoon, Bai Kou also mentioned the matter of Wen Gushan to him. As the temporary steward of the Wenling Academy who had already started work in advance, of course he had to report to the eldest son about the big and small things in the house.

As for the date of moving the yard, Gu Yun set it on the days of his exams, so that he could sleep in the Zhongming Courtyard the night he returned home after the exams, and the girls would have plenty of time to pack slowly.

The young master didn't care about Wen Gushan at all, but when he heard that the second wife asked Bai Kou to prepare a birthday party and dessert for his third sister, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch.
