"What is this?" Zhang Manqing frowned and looked at the red bean cake brought by Shu Cui. "You just use these things to send me away?" Her tone was very dissatisfied.
"Miss, this is red bean cake. Miss Zhu made it for her brother." Chang's mother might come over soon. Shu Cui was afraid that Zhang Manqing would say some unpleasant things that would be heard by others, "I heard that young master
I like to eat very much. I said that I was afraid that you were hungry, so I went to the kitchen to ask. I happened to meet Mother Chang on the way." After a pause, he said, "Miss Zhu is preparing the old man's meal in the kitchen, and asked Mother Chang to do it for her.
Come and say hello to Miss, I’ll be here in a moment.”
"Hmph, people who have never seen the world would treat such crude snacks as treasures." Zhang Manqing curled her lips disdainfully, "Forget it, we can't expect that a poor girl from the countryside can have such good things. Take it over and try it.
Bar."
"Yes." Shu Cui lowered his head and placed a plate of red bean cake on the table. He also told Zhang Manqing about meeting Aunt Wang and Xiao Qiu on the road.
"You mean, two people went there?" Zhang Manqing frowned. "Yes, Aunt Wang and a rough girl. The girl came back with me with snacks." Shu Cui's original intention was to remind his lady that even if
Even if it is for people to see, I have to ask Mama Cai to come over and help.
"Humph, she is the only one who can pretend to be a good person." Zhang Manqing felt a fire in her heart for no reason. She was outclassed by this cousin in the capital, and when she came here she was always in the limelight. "Go, tell Mother Cai to come over quickly.
, it must be better than what’s done over there, otherwise you won’t be able to reap the good fruits.”
"Yes." Shu Cui sighed slightly in his heart and lowered his head to accept the order. The young lady just likes to compare with the eldest lady. But she is always a step too late and does not say anything. However, as her personal maid, she still has to look after her.
Do what you say. Although I often mention things, she doesn't listen.
"Miss Shu Cui is going out." Chang's mother came out of Zhang Manyun's room and met Shu Cui. "Yes, Chang's mother is here, please come in." Shu Cui hurriedly invited Chang's mother into the room.
inside.
"Miss, Mother Chang is here to see you." In fact, Zhang Manqing had heard the sounds outside a long time ago, but she was very dissatisfied with this place in her heart, so she pretended not to hear. "It turns out that Mother Chang is here." There was a trace in her voice.
Contemptuous.
Chang's mother raised her eyebrows secretly, "My girl asked me to come and see Miss Qing, but she has already settled in. The place in the countryside is rough, and I feel a little wronged by Miss Yun. I hope you can forgive her." No matter how polite you are, you still have to be polite.
"It's really not that good. But in a small country place, I can't be too demanding, so that's it." Zhang Manqing's arrogant look made Chang's mother very dissatisfied. Thinking of the scene in Zhang Manyun's house just now, these two ladies
Her character was immediately evident. "Thank you, Miss Qing, for your consideration. I have other things to do, so I won't bother you any more." After speaking, Chang's mother turned and left.
"Huh, there are really no rules at all." Zhang Manqing felt that she was ignored by a servant, and said bitterly, "Fortunately, grandpa didn't let this girl go to the house, otherwise we would all be embarrassed. The servant doesn't understand the rules, this master
It's not much better." She knocked over the plate containing the red bean cake with a loud bang.
"Miss, this is not in our house after all. Please be patient for a moment." Shucui hurriedly stepped forward to clean up. He put the cakes on a plate and put them aside.
"Not in our house? Maybe grandpa paid for her to build this courtyard. She is just an orphan, and she can have so much money." Zhang Manqing's temperament is somewhat similar to her father Zhang Weize, and she also looks down on Lin Zhu.
"Don't let the old lady's words reach the ears of the old lady." Shu Cui quickly reminded that on the way here, because of the spoiled and pampered temperament of his young lady, this is not good and that is not good, which has already made the old lady a little unhappy.
If something happens again, my young lady will definitely be punished by the old master. If she does, she will be embarrassed and left outside.
"Slave, please go to Mother Chang and ask for some hot water. You can wash up. Let Mother Cai go to the kitchen to help. This will make the old man respect you, young lady." Although Shu Cui's words reminded Zhang Manqing, she was still a little impatient, "
Okay, I understand, you go ahead, this body feels so tight, let’s see if you can take a shower.” She waved her hand towards Shu Cui.
After Chang's mother came out of Zhang Manqing's room, she went to the kitchen. Although she didn't care about Zhang Manqing's contempt for her, she was a little worried about Lin Zhu. Zhang Manqing was a typical official lady, with a good background, but a bit of a temper.
Arrogant and arrogant. Lin Zhu would inevitably suffer some losses when getting along with her. She had better remind Lin Zhu earlier so that she would not be bullied for nothing. Mr. Zhang is someone she respects and will definitely not complain.
, the one who is sad in the end is herself.
In the kitchen, Lin Zhu, Aunt Wang, and the helper girl Xiaoqiu were all busy without touching the floor. Lin Zhu was responsible for the meals of Old Doctor Zhang and themselves, while Aunt Wang was responsible for those of the people below. Aunt Wang took care of Lin Zhu's cooking.
Fan was very surprised. Even a country girl
, but she still has a few people waiting here, so it’s not her turn to do it herself. But Lin Zhu not only did it herself, but also did it very well. The things in the kitchen are also very complete. In total,
There are four stoves and two people can cook the dishes without being overcrowded.
Lin Zhu took out a watermelon that she had put away in the space a long time ago. Just as Dr. Zhang came, she made a watermelon chicken for him to try. Although Dr. Zhang had eaten this dish, there are no watermelons on the market now.
, it’s new to know how to make it. There are also cucumbers, beans, eggplants and the like, there are plenty of them in her space. As soon as these things were taken out, Aunt Wang was dumbfounded.
"Aunt Wang, you can cook whatever you want. It's just that there's a little less meat." Although Lin Zhu's house always has some meat, it's not enough for a family of twenty or so. Fortunately, there are a lot of chickens at home, and most importantly, Lin Zhu
Zhu's potato harvest was very good. Although most of them were bought by Mu Yue Trading Co., Lin Zhu still left enough for them to eat, and some were used as seeds.
Auntie Wang had never had any experience with potatoes, so she didn’t know how to cook them, and because there were so many people, she wasn’t suitable for cooking too elaborate meals, so Lin Zhu taught Auntie Wang how to make a few dishes using chicken, potatoes, chili and peanuts.
The dishes she made include stewed chicken nuggets with potatoes, kung pao chicken, spicy chicken, etc. Although Aunt Wang was not used to the taste of chili peppers, after it was made, the fresh and spicy taste made her want to stop after tasting it.
Yes. Although the spicy taste makes my tongue feel uncomfortable, I still want to eat it.
"Miss Zhu, what is this red one?" Xiaoqiu was also moved to tears, but she was too curious and asked regardless of Aunt Wang's eyes. "This is called chili pepper. It is used for cooking.
Very good." Lin Zhu said quickly. "I sent some to the capital before, haven't you seen them?"
"No, the old man has his own small kitchen. We can't go in." Aunt Wang shook her head. "Oh, that's right." Lin Zhu nodded, thinking that she really didn't care about what happened in this big house.
Got it. “These chili dishes,
Maybe not everyone can eat it. Prepare some sugar water later. If someone can't stand the spicy food, just take a sip to relieve the spicy food." Lin Zhu ordered, she didn't want the two delicate ladies to eat it.
, if you lose your composure, then you will resent yourself.
After a while, Chang's mother also arrived in the kitchen. She just nodded to Lin Zhu and got busy. After a while, Cai's mother also came over with a slumped face. She was very unwilling, and just after taking a rest, she was called over again.
Of course she looked unhappy while working. "Hey, what does this smell like?" She smelled the smell of chili peppers as soon as she entered the kitchen. She was startled and jumped out quickly, covering her nose.
"It's Mama Cai. It's okay. It's just the smell of chili peppers. Although it's pungent, it's not harmful." Aunt Wang quickly explained to her. She was afraid that her fuss would make Lin Zhu unhappy. "Miss Zhu, this is
It's Mama Cai, she also helps in the kitchen." He turned to Lin Zhu and introduced her.
"Really, in that case, Mother Cai will help Aunt Wang cook first. I'm almost done here." Lin Zhu didn't pay attention to her performance and directly ordered. Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with what she said.
But Mother Cai felt that she was being looked down upon. She walked to Aunt Wang's side mumbling, and the smell in the kitchen was also unbearable for her.
"Sister Wang, this..." she pointed to the smell in the air, "What's going on? Isn't it poisonous?" she asked in a low voice.
"What did Mama Cai say? If she was poisoned, could Miss Zhu still be here? Don't talk nonsense." Aunt Wang couldn't stand her pretentiousness. She came from the kitchen and looked superior to others.
Didn't you notice that the kitchen here doesn't seem to be any worse than the one in the house?
"Humph!" Cai's mother snorted secretly, "What should I do?" She was rummaging through the things she picked up. Seeing the cucumbers lying there, she reached out and picked up one and ate it. Lin Zhu was on the other side.
While busy, I didn't see Mama Cai's movements, but everyone else saw them.
Aunt Wang was also shocked by her rudeness, "Mom Cai, what are you doing?" She quickly pulled Cai's sleeve and asked in a low voice.
"Isn't it just a cucumber? What's so great about it?" Cai's mother said nonchalantly. But she just looked at it and didn't help. Now even Xiaoqiu is looking at the vegetables in the pot and turning them over with a spatula from time to time.
one time.
"Don't forget, this is not our house. If something happens, don't involve us." Aunt Wang reminded her. Aunt Wang had already heard about her waiting in the kitchen of the house, but Cai's mother was cooking
She does have a knack for it, and the second lady just does what she does, and she flatters her, so she always looks a little arrogant.
"Hmph. You're the only one who's great, and you're the only one who knows how to flatter someone. You don't even know if that person is worthy of your attention." Mother Cai pouted, cursing in her heart.
