delicious little cook

Chapter 62
Without waiting too long, Bai Kou came in with a tray and put down two plates of delicious beef pot stickers.

Gu Yun also put his share of pot stickers in front of his younger brother, letting him eat as much as he could, while he himself only ate bean curd rolls.

Bai Kou put down the food and didn't leave. She stood quietly in the corner and watched the sixth young master eat. At the same time, the two maids of the sixth young master secretly looked at Bai Kou curiously.

Gu Chen carefully ate a potsticker and said it was delicious. His girl immediately picked up another one and put it on the plate. After the young master ate half of it, he asked his brother a little embarrassedly if he could stay for dinner tonight. .

Gu Yun patted his younger brother's head, and glanced at Bai Kou.

Bai Kou hurriedly came out and gave a blessing to the two young masters, "Tonight's meat dishes include beef with toothpicks and steamed beef with rice flour, both are for two people, if the sixth young master doesn't stay for dinner, the third young master can't finish it all by himself." .”

Gu Chen immediately nodded vigorously, giggling happily.

Bai Kou carefully asked the Sixth Young Master about his acceptance of spicy food, and finally decided to use spices to enhance the flavor and reduce the spicy taste, so as not to stimulate the children's taste buds too much.

Because it was still early and there was no rush to make dinner, Bai Kou didn't bother the two brothers' happy life any longer. After resigning, he went back to his room and wrote tomorrow's menu. I will be free after dinner, but it is not convenient to walk in the mansion at that time.

The Sixth Young Master Gu Chen naturally leaned his head to look over, his eyes lit up when he saw a pot of boiled beef for tomorrow's dinner, he pulled his brother's sleeve and whimpered and acted coquettishly, trying to count him in.

"It's not just boiled beef. It's not a rare dish. Let Dong Kitchen make it and send it to grandma to eat with the elders."

"When did the East Kitchen make boiled beef? I know that the West Kitchen has made boiled pork slices with pork. They suddenly asked the East Kitchen to make this dish. How can their current skills be as good as it is?" Gu Chen said. With a pout, he looked down on East Kitchen very much.

"In that case, you asked your mother first, and she agreed that I will count you as a share tomorrow."

"Third young master, it's getting late. The list of ingredients has to be delivered to Uncle Yan immediately. It's too late to ask for ingredients tomorrow." Bai Kou interjected with a dry cough.

Gu Chen's reaction was quick, he took the menu from his brother's hand and handed it to his girl.

"That `s a deal!"

The girl held back her smile and returned the menu to Bai Kou, who quickly went back to her room to write the list.

After sending a little girl to help with errands, Bai Kou asked Aunt Su to cut the beef reserved for breakfast into large slices in the small kitchen, then patted the beef loose with the back of a knife, took a copper bowl and started to marinate, put the beef and put a pile of it The marinade, along with some vegetables, allows the beef to absorb the flavors of the vegetables.

The copper bowl had a cover, and Bai Kou wrapped a layer of cloth on the outside, made a small urn of sour plum soup, and took it to the ice kiln. The sour plum soup was used to bribe the woman who watched the ice kiln. I set up a safe corner to store and refrigerate the beef slices, and I will come back to pick them up tomorrow morning.

After returning to Wenling Courtyard, it was almost time to cook. Jichengtang sent someone to ask where the sixth young master was eating tonight. After learning that the small kitchen had already prepared meals for the brothers, the girl who sent the message was Smiling and returning to life.

When dinner was served, the two brothers looked at the table full of dishes and suddenly felt that they might not be able to finish the meal, so they decisively divided the toothpick beef and the steamed beef into Ji Chengtang.

In the past three years of keeping filial piety, the six masters and wives have to eat with the old mother every day, but today the third house concubine's terrible incident, the old matriarch only asked the third master to eat alone, so it is estimated that he will be reprimanded.

Dividing some dishes out will not be enough. After all, in addition to these two dishes, there are also cold cuts, hot stir-fried vegetable soup and two staple foods on the table.

The sixth young master, Gu Chen, took a mouthful of beef with a toothpick. He ate it happily. While eating, he chatted with his brother, saying that he had learned how to hunt in the mountains in the past half a month, and then handed it over to the kitchen to cook for everyone to eat together. The gluttonous one wanted to eat all the meat dishes by himself, it looked extremely ugly, and the chopsticks were only sticking out of the meat dishes.Everyone couldn't take it anymore, so they started sharing meals. The seventh child ate very fast, and when he finished eating, he looked at others with a pitiful look. In order to protect his family's face, Gu Chen's days of not getting enough to eat began.

"The cousins ​​and the others have said that if they want to play like this again next time, they must not take Lao Qi there. They are all relatives of the same family because they are all surnamed Gu. I didn't expect it to behave like this. Even the third aunt The face is damaged inside, and when outsiders make jokes, they just say that the aunt is not well-bred."

"No way, this time I can only show the relatives a joke, and I won't take him there in the future."

"Second cousin has such a younger brother, he must suffer in the future." Gu Chen felt sincerely, and ate another piece of toothpick beef.

"I'm a kid, and I think a lot." Gu Yun patted his younger brother's head lightly, "Eat your meal well."

With the connivance of his elder brother, the gluttonous Sixth Young Master swept away more than half of the two beef dishes by himself, and ate half a bowl of rice. After the girl waited on him to wash his hands and rinse his mouth, he left the table to rest contentedly.

The two brothers ate their fill one after another and went to Jicheng hall together after drinking tea. The younger brother just came back today and he wanted to rest early, while Gu Yun wanted to hear the follow-up gossip about how the third aunt dealt with that girl named Qing Lei.

I first met my parents in the bedroom of the main room, and heard them praise the two beef dishes. The steamed beef with rice noodles was also made in the East Kitchen, but the beef with toothpicks is really fresh and interesting. like.

After a simple evening greeting, Gu Yun resigned and prepared to pay his respects to the old grandmother, but before he reached the courtyard, he beckoned over to the second-class maids by his wife's side and asked them about the gossip of the third bedroom.

The girls were very excited when they talked about it. Jin Hu watched the third lady dispose of Qing Lei and punish Aunt Fu before coming back, so she explained it to everyone in detail.

The third madam was originally sullen about the matter of the rich aunt and the concubine, but the third master unsurprisingly favored the young son on the grounds that the child was young and ignorant. Her mother rushed directly to the Floating Willow Courtyard, blocked Qing Lei in her room, tied the ropes and sent them to the main room, and Aunt Fu was also taken there.

The girls said that Bai Kou's punch was really hard. Qing Lei's left eye was black and blue, and there was only a slit in the eye.
