The most powerful film and television lottery

Chapter 331
Shen Mu slapped Xu Ziling's shoulder hard, and said, "Quickly find a way for me."

Xu Ziling sat up with a "wow!" in pain, and said, "Do you want to buy people's lives?"

Shen Mu doubtfully said: "With your young master Ling's current skill, how could a light slap cause such pain?"

Xu Ziling said angrily: "You slapped me lightly, and my body's true energy was blown away by you."

Shen Mu was overjoyed, and was about to speak, when a young woman's voice yelled angrily: "Who is yelling in the room? Get out of here."

The two looked at each other in astonishment, and the woman shouted coquettishly again: "If you don't come out, I'll enter the room and take someone away!"

Shen Mu responded: "Come on! Come on! Girl, please calm down, we're just having fun!"

The woman said in a deep voice: "You two newcomers from other places, do you think our ranch is a place for fun? If you talk more nonsense, each will be rewarded with ten sticks according to the family rules."

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling looked at each other in dismay, hurriedly stepped out of the room and came to the corridor.

In the sunlight, a tall and thin middle-aged woman with a willow-slender waist and a straight five palaces, but her cheeks were dry and sunken, and she seemed to be about to become violent at any moment, stared at them like frost. .

She was dressed in a gorgeous silk dress, but it didn't make up for her lack of brilliance, it just seemed to be hung on a bamboo pole to dry.

The little maid standing behind her was pretty and lovely, and she was secretly looking at the two of them curiously, with a look of sympathy in her eyes.

Shen Mu saluted and said, "This is..."

The tall and thin woman interrupted him impolitely: "You are that Fu Jing and Fu Ning. Seeing how much experience you have when you are young. Waste of my precious time."

Both Shen Mu and Xu Ziling are broad-minded people, and since they don't have the same knowledge as her, they had no choice but to keep silent and let her insult them.

The woman started to scold, and muttered: "I just sent people to Jingling yesterday to hire the most famous pastry chef in the area to serve the owner, but now you two brats who don't know what to do It's maddening!"

It dawned on the two of them that this woman was so unfriendly because she wanted to compete for favor.

It can be presumed that she was hired by the personnel responsible for the dining room, but those who were hired before were not favored by the owner, which made her lose face.If the second deacon Liu Zongdao successfully recommended these two people this time, wouldn't she be even more shameless?
In the corridor on the other side of the courtyard, three or four young male servants gathered, pointing and gloating at the two of them.

But even though they scolded the wicked woman relentlessly, the two of them remained calm, as if they would not be impatient if they were scolded for three days and three nights.

Hearing the sound, more and more servants came, filling the corridor of the inner courtyard, and a large group of children playing nearby also rushed in, it was very lively.

Seeing one of the little girls staring at him intently with big curious eyes, Xu Ziling couldn't help smiling at her.

The woman scolded angrily, "Are you listening to me?"

When the little girl shyly hid behind her companion, Xu Ziling's tiger eyes flashed coldly, looked straight into the woman's eyes, and said calmly: "We are hired to make pastries, not to be insulted by you. And why are there so many nonsense, wouldn’t it be enough to test our skills? What’s more, we don’t even know who you are. If you think we are wrong, why not just accuse Deacon Liu Er?”

The woman shot Xu Ziling's sharp eyes, and it was as if she had been burned by a scorching flame, her arrogance disappeared, and the other party's words made sense, neither overbearing nor humble, and she was at a loss for words for a while.

Shen Mu laughed and said, "I haven't asked how to call this aunt yet?"

The vile woman finally came back to her senses, and snorted coldly: "I'm in charge of the general affairs of the dining room. Everyone calls me Langu, hey! Come with me! It depends on what amazing skills you have."

After saying that, he went angrily.

Shen Mu pretended to bow and bow to the four directions, as if to express his gratitude for watching and joining, which immediately caused a burst of laughter.Lan Gu didn't turn her head, but her pale face turned paler with anger.

Dining Building is a general term for a building group composed of twelve kitchen houses.There are more than 60 cooks and servants working here. The ranks of master, deputy, apprentice, and assistant are clearly defined, and they all belong to Chief Langu.

One of them, called Shangchu, is dedicated to providing food for the most important people such as the owner and housekeeper. It is divided into four rooms in the south, east, and north.

The south room is the pastry room of Shen Mu and Xu Ziling.

Lan Gu led the two of them here in a fit of anger, and said with a straight face: "You have not been officially hired for a day, so you can't walk around, otherwise, if you violate the rules of the ranch, even the second deacon will not be able to protect you."

Shen Mu saw that the table in the room was empty except for the steamer, anvil, stove and other tools for making cakes, and asked, "Where can I find the materials?"

Lan Gu restrained her temper, and told the pretty maid on the left: "Xiaojuan! You see what they need, and then tell Uncle Gu, you understand?"

Xiaojuan lowered her head in response, but couldn't help but peeked at the two of them, with a happy smile on the corner of her mouth.

Lan Gu muttered, "See what tricks you can pull off!"

After saying that, he left without looking back.

The three of you looked at me, Xiaojuan said with a "puchi" coquettish smile, "I'm waiting for the orders from the two masters!"

Shen Mu sat on the edge of the stove, looked at Xiaojuan carefully for a while, then smiled and said, "Miss Xiaojuan is really pretty."

Xiaojuan immediately gave birth to beautiful cheeks, gave him a half-joyed and half-annoyed look, and said: "I knew you would not be serious."

Xu Ziling folded his arms around his chest, moved to the door, looked out, and said with a wry smile: "Let's get out of here early! How can Lan Gu give us high-quality materials? It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice."

Xiaojuan said solemnly: "Two young masters, don't worry! You have the second deacon to back you up, Langu dare not play tricks on this aspect. Besides, she doesn't believe that you can make cakes that satisfy the owner. .”

Shen Mu said without hesitation: "Sister Xiaojuan, do you believe it?"

Xiaojuan lowered her head and smiled slightly, shaking her head slightly.Xuan raised her pretty face again and said in wonder, "You don't seem to be taking it seriously at all, are you really full of confidence?"

Shen Mu let out a breath and said, "People have different tastes, even if the chief chef who used to serve that stupid king is brought in, the owner of your restaurant may not be satisfied."

Xiaojuan turned away and glanced at Xu Ziling who was leaning on the door, wondering, "What are you looking at, little master?"

Xu Ziling gathered his ears together and eavesdropped on the conversations in the other rooms. Hearing the words, he said indifferently: "It's nothing, I'm just looking at it casually. As long as you are willing to look at anything with your heart, you will see many things."

Xiaojuan nodded half-understood, sat down on a chair beside her, frowned and said, "I'm still waiting for the orders of the two young masters. Well! But you really don't look like masters who are good at making pastries. On the contrary, he is more like a hero who is a chivalrous hero."

Turning to Shen Mu, he said, "Is that knife on your back just for show? Why don't you find a decent knife."

Shen Mu changed the subject and said, "Isn't Miss Xiaojuan Lan Gu's confidant? Why does she seem willing to help us?"

Xiaojuan pursed her pretty lips, and said in a disdainful tone: "Who is her confidant? He belongs to Sister Fu. If Sister Fu hadn't ordered me to come and ask Lan Gu for you to make pastries, she would definitely Let you go idle, or try to force you away."

Shen Mu wondered, "Who is Sister Fu?"

Xiaojuan said proudly: "She is the person most trusted by Miss, and the leader of the servants in our host's mansion."

Shen Mu said happily at this time: "We want three catties of dragon eye powder, a bottle of buttermilk, ten white lotus roots, eight taels of new lotus seeds..." He said a lot of materials in one breath.

Xiaojuan took notes, smiled sweetly at Shen Mu, and then happily went.

Xu Ziling was dumbfounded and said, "Isn't this the ingredients for Qingfeng Rice, Tuanyou Rice and Yujing Rice?"

Shen Mu sat down peacefully and said: "If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful. I just overheard that Shang Xiuxun is not only greedy, but also greedy for freshness, so she asked us to make a cake that we have never seen before. After she ate it Definitely look for it.”

The pastry room is full of aroma.

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling looked at the Xinchuang strange cake fried in the wok with ghee, and they were all beaming. At this moment, Xiaojuan came, and they hurriedly begged her to get the materials.

When Shen Mu sat down, four new cakes were launched at the same time.

Xiaojuan clapped her hands and cheered, lifted the plate and said, "I'll take it to Sister Fu. Oh! It's really fragrant, just by looking at it, you can tell it's sweet and crunchy."

The two jumped up, one on the left and one on the right side by her side and walked out.

Xiaojuan stopped and said in amazement: "What are you doing?"

Shen Mu smiled and said: "Such a precious thing, how could it be done without our escort. If someone added other ingredients on the way, we would be finished."

Xiaojuan smiled coquettishly: "There is a cover to cover it, how can other people play tricks? Who has the guts? But if you want to run around, you can follow the slave's house!"

The figure flashed, and a dog leg blocked the way, and said displeasedly: "I haven't tried it yet, where are I going to take it?"

Xiaojuan straightened her chest and said, "This is Sister Fu's order. When it's ready, let her serve it to the host while it's still hot. It's none of your business."

The dog leg was obviously very jealous of Sister Fu, and was stunned when he heard this.

Lan Gu's voice sounded from the side: "Have you two forgotten the rules? Who will allow you to run around."

Xu Ziling said indifferently: "We are the most disciplined people. Now that Miss Xiaojuan is leading the way, how can we consider it as trespassing?"

The three of them moved forward proudly, leaving behind Liang Qian and Lan Gu who were pale with anger.

The living place of the owner, Shang Xiuxun, is Bird Garden, which is located in the middle of the inner castle. It consists of more than [-] houses of various types, surrounded by wind and fire walls, and is a building group of brick and wood structure.

The two followed Xiaojuan into the garden through the back door and passed through a nine-curved corridor built around the house. Along the way, the beautiful scenery of the garden emerges endlessly.

The most unique thing is that because the manor is located at a high place, from time to time, you can see the beautiful scenery of the endless pasture under the Pegasus City, and it becomes more and more peaceful and peaceful under the slanting light of the crescent moon.

The servants and guards who met them all paid attention to the two of them, but seeing Xiaojuan, the master's close person, leading the way, and wearing the clothes of a kitchen master, they knew they were newcomers, so no interference.

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling are not people who have never seen the world, but seeing that the main buildings such as the hall use both bucket-type and beam-lifting beam structures, with exquisitely carved beam eaves components and gorgeous and changeable hangings in front of the corridor, The sense of depth is strengthened, and against the background of the garden, it gives people a bright, transparent and deep feeling.

The three of them passed through the door, or through the courtyard, or through the corridor, and finally Xiaojuan led them to a sedan chair hall, put the cakes on a round table, and said, "You guys sit here for a while, and I will inform Sister Fu."

After Xiaojuan left, Xu Ziling sat down obediently, while Shen Mu looked around and saw a building on the other side of the garden outside the west window. Looking through the window, it turned out to be a study.

The interior is decorated with mahogany furniture, the four treasures of the study are placed on the table, and the cabinets next to the wall are full of antiques. Under the illumination of the palace lanterns, there is a couplet hanging on one wall, which reads "There is fun in the five ethics; the Six Classics There is no other article."But no one was seen.

Shen Mu looked out of the window at the garden reflecting the moonlight, and said with a smile, "You're right, this Shang Xiuxun is by no means an ordinary woman, just look at the arrangement of rockery and rocks in the garden, the arrangement of wintersweet, plantain, wisteria, and sweet-scented osmanthus. Ingenious, all are like a three-dimensional picture erected in front of the window, which is endlessly interesting, and you can know her brilliance."

Xu Ziling said with a smile: "She also knows how to eat."

At this time, the sound of footsteps came, which could only be heard.The two exchanged glances, and both could see the surprise of the other.

It turned out that the sound of the footsteps was coming from the Zouma Building connecting the sedan chair hall, not more than ten feet away from the door.

That is to say, when people come within a range of two feet, they start to be alert.

Of course it wouldn't be Xiaojuan's familiar footsteps. This cute little girl went to and from their bakery no less than twenty times today, and they could repeat it in their minds at any time.

This person's lightness kung fu seemed to be very high, Shen Mu and the two looked at the entrance, and then both Shen Mu and Shen Mu's eyes lit up at the same time.

A stately woman with beautiful jet-black hair poured down her shoulders like two small waterfalls. She was so beautiful that she was almost as beautiful as a girl in strong clothes. She walked in the door and greeted them. There is no surprise at all.

The elegant attire highlighted her outstanding face, exuding a scorching youth and an enviable healthy atmosphere.

Her beautiful eyes are deep and unfathomable, and her thick eyelashes add to her mystery.

When Shen Mu and Xu Ziling were stunned, she came across to them and sat down generously and naturally. She stretched out her slender hand under her robe, lifted the cover, glanced at it, and wrinkled her delicate and pretty little nose. Said: "The fragrance is ordinary, but the appearance is very special, because I have never seen such an ugly pastry."

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling looked at each other in astonishment, then hurriedly stood up, and saluted: "Master! Please forgive the rudeness!"

Shang Xiuxun didn't even look at them, she just put the mask aside, grabbed one of the cakes, put it on her plump lips, and carefully bit a corner of it with her neat and white teeth that perfectly contrasted with her complexion. , taste carefully.

The two nervously watched the barely noticeable movements of her cheeks, but after a while after all her movements disappeared, the other stunning beauty outside the wall still did not speak, nor did they return their staring salute.

If she doesn't speak, the two dare not ask each other.It's not that they don't have the guts, but that they are afraid of knowing the answer, especially when they think of Lan Gu's disgusting face.

At the moment of Ruo Ruo's life-and-death decisive battle, there was a hint of Ruo Yue'er's smile breaking through the dark clouds in her eyes, her big loving eyes swept over the two of them, she nodded and said: "It's still acceptable, although it's not top-grade. But creativity is commendable, better than those so-called celebrity chefs who stick to the rules. Sit down!"

Shen Mu and the two of them applauded, and happily sat down opposite her again.

Shang Xiuxun looked them up and down, and her uneasy sharp eyes made the two feel uncomfortable.

Shen Mu restrained the true qi in his body so that the divine light would not leak out from his eyes, which would expose the truth.

Shang Xiuxun's black eyebrows frowned suddenly, causing several rippling smiles to appear on her forehead, she said puzzledly: "You are definitely not like the kind of people who do such things, are you?"

Shen Mu came back to his senses, nodded and said: "The owner of the farm is great, making cakes is really just our sideline."

Shang Xiuxun covered her mouth with a "puchi" smile, and after a while she put down her hands, looked at him with a smile for a long time, and then said softly: "You are honest and funny, you make me feel disrespectful, For this reason, I will give each of you a half tael of gold at the end of each month, is there a problem?"
