delicious little cook

Chapter 47

"Damn it, what's behind the spirit!?" Bai Kou was terrified, and suddenly straightened her back. Looking back, it turned out to be Hong Su, but she didn't know how much she had heard.

"Hongsu, it's noon, don't scare people to play!"

"I see that you are too focused on chatting, I want to hear what you are talking about, who knows you two are so timid." Hong Su leaned against the door frame, just sticking her head out to speak.

"How much did you hear?!" Lu Doudou's voice suddenly dropped.

"Hmph, if you are returned by the third young master, you will be thrown into trouble. You will never have a good life."

"Don't be so ruthless, we all work together."

"That's right, it's because we all work together, so why should Bai Koo become a chef? If she is sent back, wouldn't she just satisfy those bitches?"

"So that's why I'm worried about it." Bai Kou held up the paper bag containing melon seeds, "Do you want to eat melon seeds?"

Hong Su stepped over the threshold and reached out to grab a handful.

"I heard that this is the first time for the third young master to choose a chef. Before him, there was only a precedent for the kitchen manager to serve the old Duke and the old matriarch. Neither the master nor the madam had a chef to serve them."

"Then?" Bai Kou and Lu Doudou looked at each other, looking at Hong Su and waiting for her to continue.

"It's the first time to choose a professional chef. I only choose from the new third-class chefs. It is clear that it is aimed at the cooking skills of the ten newcomers. The third young master is not interested in the skills of the old chefs. He has been eating for so many years. I've had enough."

"so?"

"If Bai Kou is returned, not only you will be bullied, but the other nine of us will also be affected. It's all because the third young master's first chef was picked from the newcomers."

"This time, I have an extra original sin on my head?"

"Bai Kou, we all rely on you. The more secure your position in Wenling Courtyard, the more stable our life will be." Hong Su held a melon seed and played with it between her fingers. Obviously, the purpose of her sudden utterance was not Those who want to eat melon seeds.

"Then what's in it for me?"

"Do you want to come back and watch the old chefs ridicule every day? Haven't you had enough in the workshop?" Hong Su bent down and looked at Bai Kou.

Bai Kou also looked at Hong Su calmly, the eyes of both of them did not hide or flicker, showing the frankness in their hearts.

"If you want me to stay in Wenling Courtyard well, you can't hold me back."

"No problem, I won't trouble you."

"What's going on with today's rumors? Apparently, there are masters who are attacking the weakness of the master."

Hong Su straightened up, showing a puzzled look.

"The rumors imply that you are only climbing on the young master's bed, why are you so weak?"

"Which mother would be happy to see the girl next to her son staring at the young master's crotch?"

Hong Su and Lu Doudou gasped in unison, and quickly pretended to eat melon seeds to cover up their gaffe.

"I don't need evidence. As long as the master becomes suspicious, I can't stay in Wenling Courtyard any longer. If I just take off the hat of seducing grandchildren, I will be finished immediately."

"Okay, if someone makes a joke about this again, I'll fight back for you."

"I'll do it too. I'm the best at arguing." Lu Doudou spoke hastily and almost choked again.

"There is no need to quarrel, as long as you say it openly and clearly, say it twice if you can't do it once, say it three times if you can't do it twice, and say it out loud in front of everyone. We are using the conspiracy to deal with villains. conspiracy." Bai Kou patted Doudou, telling her not to get too excited.

"Ok!"

"Are you finished talking? The second-class chef is also free, and they are still talking about Wen Lingyuan and Bai Kou, as if they saw it with their own eyes." Wan Qiu's voice came out from behind Hong Su.

"Wan Qiu, come here to eat melon seeds, let them say that it has nothing to do with us, and they can carry the charge of falsely speaking about the master if they want." Bai Kou shook the paper bag in his hand and greeted.

Immediately, Wan Qiu came out from behind Hong Su, pinched a handful of melon seeds, and ate them standing against the wall.

The four of them didn't speak for a while, and they all concentrated on cracking melon seeds for a while, and after a while, there were melon seed shells all over the ground.

"I knew you were hiding here." Several boys jumped out of the corner door with a whimper.

"Do you want melon seeds?" Bai Kou still generously invited them to eat.

The boys grabbed a handful each, and the bag of melon seeds finally came to an end.

When there were more people, the alleyway became lively. Whether it was the handyman or the cooks who came to take a look, they could tell that it was Bai Kou who was inviting everyone to eat, and turned around and muttered that being rich is not the same.

Bai Kou was listening to Lu Doudou complaining to her about the pain of pricking her fingers several times while doing needlework. At the same time, her eyes swept the crowd several times. Except for Mengmei, all the other newcomers were there.

Now there are sixteen third-class chefs, seven women and nine men, and ten newcomers, exactly five women and five men, and the absence of one person is very conspicuous.

"By the way, I heard that each of you has to prepare a dish for the filial piety banquet, and then choose a few dishes to form the menu. When will the competition be? Can I watch?" Bai Kou suddenly thought of this matter, based on the principle of mutual learning among peers Attitude, she really wanted to observe.

"Not yet. Isn't the warehouse in chaos these days? We have to postpone it for a few days until everything stabilizes."

"It seems that the person in charge of the kitchen warehouse has not been decided. Now, apart from receiving ingredients every day, you can't ask for extra things."

"It is said that we are going to re-count and compile the inventory now, and it will probably take a few more days."

"Now everyone is saying that if more things are found during the inventory, the people in the kitchen warehouse will be in trouble."

Boys and girls chattered about the latest news they knew.

"Unlucky is unlucky, do we still feel sorry for them? It's really too much oil and water to forget what your surname is, with a monthly record in one hand, and with the other hand, you have to pluck good things into your nest like a house mouse, and leave it to the master. It’s a pile of rubbish, if you dare to do it, you have to be brave, don’t complain about it after the incident.”

Everyone nodded frequently, feeling very reasonable. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with their newcomers. They were really just watching the fun. Who knew that after becoming an official cook in the mansion, they would be able to catch up with such a big event.

A group of people chatted so happily, but the girls just reached an agreement tacitly did not tell the boys that it was their bad behavior in the past that made the girls dare not trust them.

After each house and courtyard took away their lunch, everyone in the kitchen began to eat, and the veteran chefs who had entered the courtyard of the inner house began to brag and show off to the newcomers what the master's courtyard looked like.

Bai Kou ate in silence, not getting involved in this topic.

She didn't say a word, but someone else spoke for her. Lu Doudou threw the leftover fish bones in the bowl to the ground piece by piece, and smiled at people adoringly.

"Go to the master's yard and go around and tell others about it when you come back. Is this really good?"

Lu Doudou interrupted on purpose, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the chattering others, who glared at her.
