Chapter 284

The handyman brought hot water and took the young masters to wash their hands. When they came back after washing their hands, Bai Kou was already peeling the meat. They immediately stood in front of the long table where the food was distributed, rolled the oiled paper into a tube, and used the food Clamp a few slices of meat into it, wrap it up, and hand it to the girl who received the barbecue with a smile.

The young ladies came here just to see Gu Yun and other handsome guys, no one would stand under the shed and wait for the barbecue by themselves, they would be ridiculed for being greedy for girls.

But at this moment, Gu Yun and his buddies, a group of distinguished young masters were standing there with smiling faces, distributing delicious barbecue. How could the ladies restrain their reserve, and they all threw away the excuse of unequal status. The girl stepped forward by herself, took the paper bag with both hands, and announced her family name shyly, the boys only needed to smile, it was enough to coax them to agree to stand here and help Gu Yun win.

Seeing too many girls being stunned by Gu Yun and these guys, they came up to chat with them in the name of getting barbecue, which made them very tasty, and complained in their hearts how the level of their own cooks had dropped. The little girl who participated in the roast whole lamb competition for the first time was no match.

Also, Gu Yun and his gang are so hateful, they actually use beauty tricks!Too cheap!Just do anything to win!Shame on the face of the rich and powerful young master!

The counterattack for supporters was fought silently. Some boys took away some girls with the help of their own sisters, and some of their own cooks were happy to watch the fun without participating in this competition. Of course, there were also school advisors. Yun and the others stood beside their cook to help wrap the meat, and they also came to sell a beauty trick, trying to attract some girls, and the originally shapeless team became a mess.

The big shots on the side of the throne saw all the chaos in their eyes, and called the attendants to find out what was going on, and all of them couldn't stop laughing after hearing the report.

After some contesting, there were still a lot of people in front of Gu Yun, not only girls, but also most of the boys watching the fun, and even some boys and girls who were dragged away came back after eating a circle.

Those old chefs who come here every year, their culinary skills are honestly a bit tired of everyone, Bai Kou is a new face, and the barbecue tastes fresh, and the crowd gathers here mainly to look fresh.

What's more, he can still see Gu Yun at such a close distance.

There are not a few young and unmarried sons and grandchildren, but among the top ten people on the autumn list this year, only Gu Yun is the son, and he is still the third. The top two are the children of scholarly disciples from other places. one.

Of course, such a shining young man should take a second look. Who cares to look at other people's old faces? What's more, Bai Kou, a little cook, is really good at cooking. There are delicious food and handsome guys to watch. This year's winter hunting trip is worth it up!

Bai Kou peeled the meat over and over again and roasted it. Others' roast meat was not as meticulous as hers. After dividing the meat, the people dispersed. Some unrestrained chefs sent big pieces of mutton to the imperial court. Men You can still eat a few mouthfuls boldly, but the female relatives don't touch a single mouthful.

From the perspective of the imperial seat, there seems to be a lot of people in front of the barbeque shed belonging to Duke Ye's mansion. Civil and military officials kept laughing and chatting, and recognized Bai Kou as the number one roasted whole lamb this year. Her advantage is too obvious. , no one can compete with it.

The sage immediately ordered to call Bai Kou to receive the reward.

The attendant went to deliver the order, and the meat of Bai Kou's lamb was finally roasted to the last bone. Hearing the call from the imperial court, he suddenly panicked, his heart beating like a drum, and he heard the cheers and laughter of celebration around him in his ears. , but don't know what to do next.

Gu Yun hurriedly instructed Lu Doudou and the others to take Bai Kou to wash their hands and face, take off their clothes, and asked the male cooks to finish roasting the meat and put away the stall at the end. After Bai Kou cleaned up and came back, Gu Yun and Gong Changji accompanied her He walked her to the imperial court and told her the rules of etiquette when she met the saint.

Although it was just for the imperial court to receive the reward, and he retired after a cup of tea at most, but Eunuch Xi had already come to inquire once, so it was hard to say if the saint would say a few more words, so Gu Yun repeatedly told Bai Kou that no matter how nervous he was, he would come out and faint again fall.

When they saw the soldiers of the Imperial Army, Gu Yun and Gong Changji stopped in their tracks, and Bai Kou followed the servants to the soldiers, and passed them to the front of the seat.

Bai Kou kept in mind Gu Yun and Gong Changji's reminders, lowered his eyes slightly and did not look directly at the saint on the throne, kept his brows lowered and pleasing to the eyes, stood at the place designated by the attendants, adjusted his clothes and knelt down neatly , leaned over and kowtowed three times and shouted long live, and did not stand up until he was allowed to lie flat.

From the throne, the empress's concubine laughed lightly.

"At such a young age, it's rare to have a certain sense of deportment."

"Thank you for your praise, it's all because of my wife's good training."

"Listen, I'm boasting my wife, she's really sweet." The queen's words made all the female relatives chuckle.

"The culinary skills are also very sophisticated, far beyond the level of apprentices, really amazing talent." The queen continued to boast, "Look up and see what you look like."

Bai Kou raised her face meekly, her eyes still looking at the ground.

Most of the civil and military officials didn't react when they saw Bai Kou's appearance, but some officials from the Ministry of Rituals unconsciously made small movements, thinking that Bai Kou's appearance was a bit kind.

The queen continued to smile, with a kind face on her face, "Well, she is really a delicate girl. When she grows up in a few years, I'm afraid she will become even more beautiful."

Bai Kou could only salute and thank her, keeping her mouth shut and not talking nonsense.

"Bai Kou, your talent is so outstanding, I am a little curious about what kind of business your family used to do?"

"If you go back to your mother, the servant girl's original family is also a cook."

"Oh? Since you are a family cook, you shouldn't be able to support the whole family with this skill. How did you end up in the culinary workshop?"

"Returning to your mother, the servant girl was not sold to Xuefang because of her poor family. The servant girl is an official servant girl."

Bai Kou stood firmly, with a steady voice, and calmly revealed her identity in front of civil and military officials and family members.

People's eyes immediately turned to Ye Guogong and his wife who were sitting firmly in place.

"Official maid?" The concubine's final voice rose slightly, sounding a little surprised, "What happened at home?"

"Returning to your mother, the servant girl doesn't know that when the accident happened at home, the servant girl was only eight years old, so she was exempted from exile and became an official maidservant instead."

"So, your family committed the felony of exile? What a pity."

The queen turned her eyes and looked in the direction of Lord Ye and his wife.

"Madam Gu, it's rare to have an official servant in the culinary arts workshop. You are so lucky to have such a good cook."

Mrs. Ye Guogong got up and saluted the throne with a smile.

"Your Majesty, it's lucky and inevitable for my wife to be able to buy Bai Kou. In the first half of the year, in order to add a new cook, the stewards searched for a few days in various culinary workshops in Yachifang. The most expensive one, more than 20 apprentices have been employed in the mansion for several months, only a few of them were selected by Youzhong, and Bai Kou is the best among those left here."

"So good that she became the steward of your heir?"

"She has this level, so let her play naturally, a rare talent."

"Well, you're right. Talent is rare. Everything is due to this girl's own level, otherwise she would not have the opportunity to stand in front of the emperor to receive the reward today." The queen straightened her cuffs gracefully, "I always listen to people these days. Speaking of her name, this girl has made a lot of interesting preparations for this winter hunt, if she has time in the afternoon, Mrs. Gu will bring her to sit in my tent."

"The minister's wife would like to obey the mother's order."
