Chapter 577: Adding fuel to the fire
Yan Tianyan no longer mentioned the matter of going to see Xiao Zheng, but put the matter of finding her mother-in-law for Jiang Wenwen and Liu Meiyuan on the agenda. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
She discussed this matter with Mu Hanfeng, saying that in case the two young ladies just don't let go, and they want to come to Mu Mansion alive or dead, they will do whatever it takes, and if necessary, they will come to some yin. Mu Hanfeng acquiesced.
In the blink of an eye, autumn is blowing, and the leaves are full of leaves. Early in the morning, Yan Qianyan dressed neatly and went out with Xiaohong and two little maids, these two little maids are said to have been bought from outside recently, fourteen or fifteen years old, it stands to reason that it is not the best age to be a maid, but Sima Butler said that it is more reliable and worry-free when he is older. One of these two people is called Xi Yuan, and the other is called Xin Yuan, who is strong and thoughtful, and has a bit of a green shadow. Yan Tianyan could see that these two should be specially found by Mo Tong to protect her, because she saw that Mo Tong gave an order to Xi Yuan, so she gladly accepted it.
Out of the peony garden, Yan Qianyan began to run. She has the habit of exercising in the morning, and the spring, summer, autumn and winter are never stopped.
After running for a while, I felt sweaty. That's when it slowed down.
Xi Yuan handed over the cloth towel very much.
Yan Tianyan smiled with satisfaction, took the cloth towel and wiped his sweat and asked, "Xiyuan, are you hungry, why don't we go to the kitchen to find something to eat." lest you have to go to dinner when you go back. ”
If you don't have anything to do, the small kitchen of the Peony Garden doesn't need to be opened, and the East Kitchen has a menu for three meals a day.
Xi Yuan pursed his lips and smiled: "The young lady is really sympathetic to the slave, this is the best." ”
Although they had only been together for a few days, Yan Tianyan could see that this girl was a little lazy and afraid of running away.
She returned the cloth towel in her hand and walked in the direction of the East Kitchen.
When I arrived at the door of the East Kitchen, I heard a high and low scolding from inside. It seems to be a woman's.
What's wrong? The East Kitchen is the largest kitchen in Mu Mansion, there are five chefs, all of whom are imperial chefs, and Chef Wei is the steward, that is, the head chef. He is not only a good person, whether he is a chef or a helper, he is very united and a very cohesive small group.
They are very dedicated to the few masters in the house, and they formulate different menus every day, Yan Tianyan has seen it, and he can't help but admire Chef Wei, because the formulated menu is simply a nutritious meal. It also varies from person to person.
Such a dedicated kitchen full of positive energy, what is the noise in the morning.
Walking into the door of the East Kitchen, I saw Shen Ningxiang standing in the big kitchen with her hands on her hips from a distance, her eyes wide open, and she was scolding a woman who was helping the kitchen: "Bold minion, with long eyes and feet under your feet?" Seeing that Mrs. Ben didn't know how to dodge and dared to bump into it. If I don't teach you a good lesson today, you won't know what long eyes do. ”
Yan Qianyan walked into the house and saw that the woman was about forty years old, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, shabby but cleanly washed, her hair was curled at the back of her head, and her face was straight. She bowed her head and knelt on the ground, not daring to speak.
Chef Wei, who was standing with his hands down, hurriedly pleaded: "Mrs. Shen, she is the sister-in-law Liu who just came, and she belongs to Liu Dachuan's family in the backyard. I don't know the rules and I don't know Mrs. Shen, so I ask Mrs. Shen not to care, the old slave will tell her the rules in the future. ”
Another chef was also busy saying, "Yes, Mrs. Shen, Sister-in-law Liu accidentally bumped into Mrs. Shen because she wanted to bring some snacks to Miss Meiyuan." ”
The mother-in-law who helped the cook also said, "Yes, Mrs. Shen." Miss Miyuan loves hot snacks. ”
These few don't say that Liu Meiyuan is okay, but Liu Meiyuan. Shen Ningxiang's eyes almost burst into flames, and she scolded Sister-in-law Liu fiercely: "What? Miss Meiyuan wants to eat hot snacks to hit Mrs. Ben? Open your eyes wide, Mrs. Ben is the lady of Mu Mansion, Mrs. Ben is pregnant with the seed of the lord in her belly, you dare to be disrespectful to Mrs. Ben for the sake of a Miss Laoshizi who is in the house and does not leave, and Mrs. Ben will not be this lady if she doesn't kick you out today. ”
Seeing her holding her stomach angrily, Chef Wei whispered with a smiling face: "Mrs. Shen is serious, and Sister-in-law Liu is also unintentional, and she has no other meaning." It's too heavy to kick out. That Liu Dachuan has been an old man in the house for ten years. It was brought in by the housekeeper himself. She is very diligent, please Mrs. Shen spare her. ”
Chef Wei is only in charge of the East Kitchen, there are more than 20 subordinates, so many people eat every day, he is busy, and he has no time to gossip, and he is not very clear about the competition between several masters in the house.
He didn't know that Shen Ningxiang was already angry when he mentioned Liu Meiyuan, and now mentioning Steward Sima was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire and making her even more angry.
He thought that with his achievements in Mu Mansion for so many years, Shen Ningxiang would give him some face and avoid the punishment of Sister-in-law Liu.
But she didn't expect Shen Ningxiang to kick Sister-in-law Liu again, and even pointed at him and scolded: "What are you, you dare to use the old slave of Steward Sima to press me." Do you think he can be above Mrs. Ben by being a housekeeper? ”
Chef Wei is in his fifties, and he is also an old cook before the accident in Mu Mansion. Princess Jinyu respected him for three points when he was there, and he thought that he had contributed a little to the stomach of the master of Mu Mansion, but he didn't expect to be scolded so mercilessly.
Suddenly, a well-maintained, very chef-like fat face couldn't hang up. It became pig blood red.
He looked at Shen Ningxiang embarrassedly, and didn't know what to say for a while.
Shen Ningxiang kicked Liu again, and Liu was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.
The fire in Yan Qianyan's heart rushed to the top of his head at once.
She originally had a hatred for Shen Ningxiang, and she usually struggled with Mu Hanfeng's explanation, and tried her best to suppress it, as long as it was not too much, she tried to avoid contradictions. Recently, he has been able to hide and hide, and he has sent someone to send him over after he has done a good job of fake ledgers. I hadn't seen her for days. The sight of this makes people angry.
Maybe it was just like this to come to this time and space, my father and mother died early, and now I am a mother again. So there is a natural respect for women who are a little older. Ancient women got married early, this Liu is about forty years old, maybe they are already grandmother-level people, just because they inadvertently bumped into it, they didn't give up, and they beat and scolded. It's too much.
Seeing that Shen Ningxiang kicked Liu a few times, maybe because her feet hurt, she shouted Yiren: "You come, give me a palm, twenty times." ”
Yiren has already seen Yan Qianyan, as a maid, a maid who is deeply ravaged by Shen Ningxiang, and sees Shen Ningxiang treat Liu like this. I also feel very uncomfortable. Now seeing that she let her son slap Liu's mouth by herself, she hesitated. Use your eyes to indicate the position of Yan Yanyan.
Shen Ningxiang didn't see her signal, and when she dared to disobey the order, she stretched out her hand and twisted it between her ribs and scolded: "What's the matter, I can't call you?" Don't do it yet. ”
Yiren grinned and stepped forward, but instead of raising her slap, she twitched it with her mouth and signaled Shen Ningxiang.
She deliberately did it mysteriously and secretly.
But try to be when Shen Ningxiang is not watching.
Shen Ningxiang was completely angry, she had a pregnancy reaction these days, her mood fluctuated a lot, and she hadn't seen Mu Hanfeng for nearly half a month.
All the tempers exploded at this moment.
