Don't think that being able to enter the imperial dining room is a step to the sky, the cultivation course of the little palace maids is not over.

Early the next morning, the three of them were taken to the kitchen by an elderly grandmother and said to them, "In the future, when you don't have classes, you will work here." If you want to cook well, you must start with the most basic fire, carrying water, and picking vegetables. ”

"Ah, no, Mama, are you mistaken, Aunt Yan clearly said that we will help with the cooking. ”

I saw that her grandmother looked at the three of them with disdain and said: "Just because you still want to make imperial food, which of the people here has not been here for three or five years, and how many of them have become imperial chefs? ”

After saying that, she said to the people who were working inside: "Listen to you, they will come to help you in the future." After saying that, she left without looking back.

Then they were assigned work.

Ruan Mingmei was assigned to pick vegetables, and Qiaoyun, who was older, was instructed to help carry water from the well, and would help wash the vegetables together.

Wei Ning'er was assigned to the work of burning the fire, and after the two listened, their mouths turned up angrily.

"It's not fair, why can we light the fire, but we have to pick vegetables and carry water, and we have to wash the vegetables later. ”

Seeing the two companions complaining, Wei Ning'er hurriedly said: "Otherwise, we will do it later, anyway, we will do these foundations." ”

Several palace maids who were doing things next to her, seeing Wei Ning'er's young age, was so open-minded, and she spoke very gracefully, they immediately looked at her twice.

"Alright then, let's talk about it gently, and we'll change it later. ”

"Definitely. ”

Ruan Mingmei and Qiaoyun listened to Wei Ning'er's words, and immediately happily went to do their own things.

Wei Ning'er also began to burn the fire. Unless there is a special reason for this, the imperial kitchen is basically on fire all day long, because maybe which master will eat something, and the soup must be kept hot and not cold.

If the fire breaks in the stove, everyone will be punished.

Fortunately, she had been in the palace before, and she could do both rough and fine work, so it was not difficult to do it now.

Burning the fire pays attention to the method, rather than stuffing the firewood directly into the stove hole and it will be fine. Put firewood on both sides, dig out some gaps in the middle, and pile them up like people building blocks, the firewood in the middle has enough gaps, and after reacting with the air, it can burn very vigorously in the shortest time.

If you want to make the fire burn in the shortest time, it is to first use soft firewood to light the hard wood, and slowly add fire to it, and it is very simple to control the fire.

Seeing Wei Ning'er for a while, it was fine, Ruan Mingmei and Qiaoyun died of envy, and they all said that Song Qingqing got an easy job.

Wei Ning'er said with a smile: "Actually, it is not easy to burn the fire at all, you need to watch the fire, but also look at the dishes in the pot, control the heat, if it is not good to burn the vegetables, or the water in it is boiled dry, and the dishes are burned, it will also lead to a big disaster." ”

The other two pouted and said they didn't believe it and wanted to exchange with Wei Ning'er.

"Alright then, take your pick. ”

In the end, the three of them changed things to do, Wei Ning'er picked vegetables and washed vegetables, Ruan Mingmei carried water from the well, and Qiaoyun went to light the fire.

After a while,

"Ahem, ahem!" Several people ran out of the imperial kitchen together, only to see that the entire kitchen was covered with smoke.

When Mama saw it, she came from afar with a stick.

The others were choking and bending over to beat their chests and coughing over there, and some of them coughed their faces out.

When the culprit came out, he made everyone laugh so much that their stomachs hurt with laughter, and they saw Qiaoyun's face full of pot soot, just like a little flower cat with a flower face.

"You three stinky girls, you will cause trouble for me on the first day, you come over for me. ”

Seeing that everyone else was watching, Mama yelled angrily. "Look at what you see, don't hurry up and do things. Wait for today's chef to check, in case you are scolded, you will all have to be unlucky. You old people, you can't give the newcomer some pointers and look at them. ”

"Mama, we have a lot of things to do today, who knows that they can't do this little thing. ”

"Alright, you guys go ahead and come over to me the three of you. ”

"Smack, smack, smack!"

The three of them were beaten five times, and the three people who had never been hit by the board suddenly felt painful.

Wei Ning'er also frowned in pain, she used to just watch others being beaten on the board, but she didn't expect that she would be beaten again today.

Her luck didn't seem to be very good for this mission, either she was beaten or was implicated by others and beaten.

Ruan Mingmei said unconvinced: "Mama, why did you beat me, I didn't burn the fire." ”

"Dare to quibble, and besides, play five boards again. ”

Wei Ning'er didn't want to be beaten again, so she hurriedly flattered: "Mama, we know it's wrong, the three of us, we will definitely do things well next time." ”

Mama didn't continue to fight.

"At noon today, the three of you are not allowed to eat, and you can only have dinner after you have done all this work today. ”

The faces of the three of them changed when they heard this, and it was too terrible here, so they didn't even give them food.

Following the direction of Mama's fingers, looking at the mountains of vegetables and chopsticks, the three of them suddenly gasped.

"I'm sorry, I'm the one who bothered you today. This will be Qiaoyun's face is still a little dark, not much cleaned, but also because he did something wrong, which has affected his friends, and his face is full of frustration.

"It's okay, who let the three of us be together, and then we want to be punished together, everyone is the same, and there is nothing unhappy. ”

Ruan Mingmei also figured it out, felt that Wei Ning'er's words were very right, and comforted Qiaoyun and said: "Qiaoyun is what I said in front of me, don't take it to heart, we will be good sisters in the future, share blessings and difficulties." ”

By the time the three of them finished what they were doing, they had already turned to the house for ten minutes.

"Oops, I'm tired. ”

"yes, I don't think my arm is my own. ”

The three of them looked weak and their bodies were drained.

But when the three of them saw the dishes on the table, they were dumbfounded.

"Did we go to the wrong room?" Qiaoyun looked confused.

Ruan Mingmei was a snack seller, and when she saw a big chicken leg on the table, she didn't say a word, she took the chicken leg and nibbled it in her mouth. While gnawing on the oil in his mouth, he said: "This must have been left for us by Aunt Yan, knowing that we have worked hard." ”

"Wouldn't it? ”

Three people, you look at me, I look at you, I can't guess who it is.

At this moment, a figure walked out of the room and jumped in front of Wei Ning'er, Wei Ning'er's first reaction was to directly grab the man's arm and give him an over-the-shoulder fall.
