delicious little cook

Chapter 179 The young masters are actually living treasures
Huang Bin readily agreed, and clasped hands with Gu Yun, happily walked away, went along the corner gate to Jicheng Hall to bid farewell to his cousin, and then went to Rong En Hall to bid farewell to his aunt. Sent out of the gate and rode home with his entourage.

At the same time, Bai Kou had already taken the wine to the kitchen storage room and put away the cooking and salted eggs, and arranged for the maids to prepare the ingredients for dinner.

After dinner, Gu Yun went to pay his respects to the elders as usual, sat down with his mother, and talked about the second wife's transfer. When he learned about this, at dinner tonight, his grandmother easily dismissed the second wife's request at the dinner table , for good reason.

Although there are many male chefs, there are few cooks, and they are all well-trained and familiar with each other. They have already cooperated with each other tacitly. If they are taken away, there will be a shortage of cooks. It is not easy to fill in new people. Instead of causing trouble to the east kitchen, It's better for the second wife to buy a little cook by herself and let the East Kitchen do the training for her.

The mother-in-law spoke, and the second wife, who was the daughter-in-law, dared not listen, and the matter ended here.

Gu Yun went back to the Zhongming Courtyard and told Bai Kou the result. Bai Kou went to the kitchen in a good mood and made soda biscuits of various flavors for everyone to try with the baking soda bought in Yirenfang today.

In the morning of the next day, Bai Kou routinely went to Yanbo, Bingjiao, and East Kitchen to wander around and inspect the work. The servants of Yi Guogong's mansion came to the door and delivered a bowl of high-quality cooked salted egg yolk, which fully met Bai Kou's requirements. sand.

Bai Kou couldn't help laughing when he came back and saw so many salted egg yolks. He wondered if that young master Bin had boiled all his own salted eggs. fresh.

The next day, Huang Bin came to find his cousin early in the morning to have breakfast. Gu Yun hated him enough, so Bai Kou temporarily changed the pastry and took out the quicksand stuffing in the ice cellar to make quicksand buns.

Huang Bin doesn't treat himself as an outsider at all, and he's easier to serve than Gu Yun, he's not picky about food, he eats whatever is on the table, and he's already half full before the quicksand buns are on the table.

"Cousin, where did you buy it as a cook? Are there any other seniors and sisters, please introduce them to me?"

"Go to Yachifang, find any culinary art workshop, pick the one that looks pleasing to you, buy it home, and then slowly train it yourself."

"Liar."

"Why are you lying to me? My kitchen bought 24 apprentices this year, and I got such a treasure. If you want something good, go find it yourself."

"It's not hard to find one out of 24 people."

"Hmph, first pick out the most expensive ones from each workshop, put them together and train them for a while, and see if you are lucky enough to find another one out."

"...I'd better come over for dinner." Huang Bin laughed.

Gu Yun just wanted to take pictures of this cheeky cousin.

Bai Kou personally brought the steaming quicksand buns to the table. Huang Bin put one on the plate. Regardless of the hot hands, he put down his chopsticks and tore open the skin of the buns. It flowed out slowly.

"Wow, what a delicious bun!" Huang Bin yelled excitedly, wanting to taste it but afraid of burning his tongue.

It's the same with Gu Yun, he put the steamed stuffed bun in the plate, but it was too hot to eat.

"Two young masters take it slow."

Bai Kou saluted and wanted to retreat, but was stopped by Gu Yun again.

"Is there more? Don't leave the rooms behind."

"There is still enough quicksand stuffing. Let the east kitchen make it in the afternoon. The small kitchen doesn't have enough dough. By the way, Master Bin, what time is the daily snack time in Yiguo Mansion? Would you like to send some raw dough to the mansion?"

"Okay, okay, just before and after Shen Shi." Huang Bin was not polite at all.

"Okay, the servant girl will tell the East Kitchen later. The servant girl will leave for the time being."

"Cousin, you said yesterday that she has several errands, are they all related to the kitchen?"

"That's right. She is in charge of the kitchen and the ice cellar. The old steward of the kitchen depot regards her as a junior. The relationship between the old and the young is very good. Now the kitchen is smooth and smooth, and no one dares to make trouble."

"I'm so envious. She's still so capable at such a young age. If I also have such a girl, I'll mention her to be in charge."

"I told you to go to Yachifang and look for it, maybe you can find one."

"Don't be funny, this kind of talent is hard to come by. With so many people in Yachifang, you are considered lucky if you find one. Who knows if there is a second one? I can pass everyone through the sieve. ?”

"You're just praising me for my luck? I'm overwhelmed."

"Hmph." Huang Bin snorted coldly because he couldn't understand his cousin's embarrassing face.

The cousins ​​bickered with each other, finally ended the lively breakfast, then Huang Bin dragged Gu Yun to meet his cousin and aunt successively, and dragged his cousin out.

The two of them rode out of Tianshuifang and went to Jianshuifang on the edge of the moat. Today there was a chess club meeting, and a group of young masters just took this opportunity to gather. To be a substitute, the condition is today's event.

It was still early, and the two brothers rode slowly, chatting while avoiding the vehicles and pedestrians passing by on the capital avenue.

Huang Bin was still reminiscing about his breakfast in the morning, and became interested in his cousin's cook.

"Cousin, I don't know your girl's name yet."

"Bai Kou."

"What's your last name?"

"The surname is Bai." Gu Yun gave his cousin a look of foolishness.

"Surname...Bai?" Huang Bin blinked, recalling some memories. As the youngest grandson of Duke Yi, he has certainly seen the world. "This surname sounds familiar."

"There are millions of people in the capital, and there are too many people with the surname Bai."

"But the surname is Bai, and there are not many people with outstanding cooking skills. Unless I think wrongly."

"No, you didn't think wrongly." Gu Yun understood that Huang Bin was right.

"Really?! Which side branch?"

"The direct branch."

"The direct branch? Isn't the Bai Yuchu's branch exiled?"

"Bai Kou is the youngest granddaughter. She was eight years old at the time, so she doesn't need to be exiled, and she is not an official servant."

"Wow!" Huang Bin was instantly jealous, "Why did you let your family buy it!"

"Hey hey hey!" Gu Yun was very proud.

"It's a pity, the hereditary imperial chef, because of a mistake in an errand, the whole family was exiled to the border."

"No way, people make mistakes. Prince Dalso personally led a mission to submit the credentials. The reception was of the highest standard. The imperial kitchen and the Ministry of Rituals were all making preparations. The Bai family was not the only one who made mistakes and was dismissed. "

"I've eaten dishes cooked by the chef of the Bai family before."

"Yo yo, it makes people jealous. It seems that you have eaten it alone. Let me tell you what dishes you have eaten. Let's see how many you remember."

"You have eaten it too, but you also mentioned a few dishes!"

The two brothers fought again, entered Jianshuifang with bickering mouths, strolled to the center of Shizi Street, met several friends and acquaintances who also went to the chess club along the way, greeted and chatted with each other. Dismount from the horse outside the main gate of the chess club, enter the door and go upstairs.
