delicious little cook

Chapter 230 Of course there is a plan for gift giving

With her things in her hands, Bai Kou went out of Zhongming Yard to the small kitchen, and was about to look for Mama Pang, when Aunt Su sent someone to look for her, saying that Miss Tong Mingli had something to ask for advice from the second room, and asked her to meet at Babu Lane .

Since it was Tong Mingli's invitation, Bai Kou had no choice but to save face, so she had to hand over the things to someone else. She washed her hands by the well, then went to Babu Alley, and walked along the alley to the gate of the second bedroom's compound.

The woman guarding the door invited Bai Kou to sit in the hut and wait. After half a stick of incense, several carriages were slowly parked outside the gate of the courtyard. After half a stick of incense, the male and female guests who came to the banquet came out.

The second wife's only relative in the capital is her elder brother. Naturally, Tong Mingli's family was invited to this small family feast. After lunch and rest for so long, the guests are going home.

When Bai Kou saw them coming out, she immediately left the hut and waited in Babu Alley.

Mrs. Tong and Tong Mingli recognize each other, but the other Tong family members don't recognize each other. At most, they can guess who Master Tong is.

The Tong family is also very powerful when they go out. The husband and wife have a car, the eldest son and daughter-in-law have a car, the unmarried sons have a car, the daughters have a car, and the accompanying maids and servants have their own cars.

Bai Kou watched Tong Mingli get into the carriage. She carefully avoided the crowd, moved along the wall, and greeted loudly while looking at the carriage.

"The servant girl Bai Kou came here at the call of Miss Tong San, what orders do I have?"

Bai Kou spoke too loudly. For a while, everyone at the gate of the courtyard looked at her together, even the men and women who were already in the car lifted the curtains to look out.

Soon, Tong Mingli's personal girl got out of the car and saluted Bai Kou politely.

"Master Bai, my lady would like to ask how to make a perfect chicken cake."

"If you confirm that the ratio of the recipe is correct, the middle of the egg cake will collapse, which means that the egg liquid is not enough to be whipped. You can't be lazy. If you have a sore arm, you can change people in turn. You must whip it in place to make a good-looking egg cake."

"It's that simple?"

"It's as simple as that. There is no room for laziness. If the egg liquid is not beaten enough, it is not good. No matter how hard you put in, you will get as much results."

"Understood, thank you manager for your guidance."

The girl saluted and thanked her, lowered her head and took out a bulging purse from her waist, and handed it to Bai Kou with both hands.

"This is our lady's wish, please don't hold it against me."

"Thank you Miss Tong San, Miss Tong San, go slowly."

The weight of the purse made Bai Kou narrow her eyes with a smile, matching her natural face, giving people a kind of gentle and amiable feeling.

The girl saluted and said goodbye to Bai Kou again, and returned to the lady's car, Bai Kou looked at the window and saluted as well, then slowly stepped back a few steps and turned to leave.

Tong Mingli in the car watched Bai Kou disappear from the car window in a few steps, pulled down the curtain to cover the window, and relaxed on the cushion to rest.

"Today's lunch is really unpalatable. In this huge Duke of Ye's mansion, there is only Bai Kou, a decent cook."

"No, Miss, I heard that today's small family banquet was cooked by my aunt's private cook. Steward Bai Kou devoted himself to serving the old lady and the Duke's family at noon, and never asked about the small family banquet at all."

"Tsk, it's really embarrassing where my aunt bought the inferior goods. She must never give such a terrible private cook to her cousins ​​as a dowry. Their future in-laws will laugh at them."

"The best places to buy cooks and cooks are not those specialized culinary art workshops. Maybe they are reluctant to spend money. Those with the level of steward Bai Kou are definitely the most expensive."

"I just said that my cousin must have found the shooter for the dim sum a few times, and it must have been replaced by Bai Kou."

"Miss Biao is also very pitiful. Shouxiao has been patronizing her studies for three years."

"They said at the dinner table that they would go to work with their uncle as a family member next month. My uncle will go to the local government to be the magistrate. The rich ladies in the local area are not as delicate as the noble girls in the capital. Maybe they may not be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they are basically Housework must be taken care of, my cousins ​​and cousins ​​must not run back crying after a month, otherwise the Duke Ye's mansion will lose face."

"Miss, if you can't help with the affairs of the cousins, don't worry about them. No matter how much they make jokes, others won't be able to laugh at you."

"Isn't this my auntie? As the old saying goes, auntie, if your bones are broken and your tendons are connected, our master will be upset if they are laughed at. He is the one who values ​​family affection the most."

"Miss, don't think about it too much. Maybe the cousins ​​are happier in the local area than in the capital? We might as well go back and see which young masters the madam has chosen for the miss."

Tong Mingli waved her hand in a disconcerted manner, and after thinking for a while, she pulled back the curtain of the car window, but the carriage had already set off, and only the high fence was in sight, and the direction of travel did not pass through the Zhongming Courtyard. In the end, Tong Mingli pulled the curtain back again, Lean on the soft cushion and close your eyes to meditate.

Bai Kou happily returned to Zhongmingyuan with her purse in her hand, and when she heard the girl reply that Pang's mother was looking for her, she hurriedly put her purse back into the house before going to Jicheng Hall.

Mama Pang was sitting in her room, and asked two little girls to divide the big bottle of hand sanitizer into other small glass bottles. When she saw Bai Kou coming, she hurriedly waved her into the room.

"Come on, come on, we just talked about you. These days, I saw your girl washing the rag with that big piece of soap every day. We also said in private where you ordered it. It turned out that you made it yourself. Really. You can do it." Pang's mother pulled a chair from the wall for Bai Kou to sit on.

"Has Mama Pang shown it to the eldest lady?"

"I've seen it. The big soap and this hand sanitizer are both very interesting. They are not divided into small bottles. I will put a bottle in the room of the old lady and the young master. The big soap will be washed in the tea room in front of everyone. For rags."

"If you use it well, just ask me to get it again. There are plenty of this kind of household soap. After two or three days, there will be fragrant soap for bathing. I will also bring it to the old lady for trial."

Mother Pang narrowed her eyes with a smile, and looked Bai Kou up and down.

"Suddenly took out so many styles of soap, did you have a plan?"

"I have a plan." Bai Kou nodded honestly.

"I'll just say it! Say it, what are you drawing?"

"The prince wants to have his own property."

"Huh?!" Pang's mother's eyes widened in disbelief. She couldn't think of this reason, and even the girl who was dispensing hand sanitizer couldn't help but stop, "Why?!"

"No matter how you look at it from any angle, the son is now a well-established man. He wants to have his own property to support himself, and he doesn't want to rely on the public support. He thinks it's time for him to repay his parents."

Mother Pang couldn't hold back for a moment, her tears welled up, and she quickly took out a handkerchief and pressed it on her eyes.

"Our young master is an adult~~~"

"So, these soaps are samples ready for sale."

"What?! Soap business?!" Mama Pang's touch was gone, and the girls opened their mouths in astonishment.

"That's right, annex the pancreas workshop in the workshop and turn it into Shizi's private property. If it succeeds, it can contribute a piece of income to the public at the end of the year. If it fails, the mansion will become an extra processing workshop for its own use. .”

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! Don’t you want to laugh at other people’s big teeth!? Absolutely not! Ma’am, you won’t be able to pass that test!"

Without thinking about it, Pang's mother eagerly objected.
