Chapter 126: The little sausage is coming to the bowl
After changing her clothes and going straight to the east kitchen, before entering the small door, Aunt Nie, who had always been well-informed, grabbed Bai Qiao and asked her if she had reported the matter of the slaves in the Seventh Young Master's courtyard embezzling things from the public.
"Auntie, even you know?"
"I'll say okay first, but it's not my eldest sister who said it, I'm just sitting here, and naturally all kinds of news have entered my ears."
"Auntie, do you say that you praise or scold more?"
"The only one who can praise you is the master, and other irrelevant people, most of them are lively, and the words of those who take the bag are not good, so they won't learn to listen to you, so they won't pollute your ears."
"Hey, those people are really fast-talking, and they specially told them to keep it secret and not to mention what I reported."
"It's your business, anyway, you be careful, the people in Aunt Fu's courtyard don't like you very much, and some things have something to do with you, last time I fought with Qinglei, this time it's an ice cellar straw bag."
"I also think it's a bit of a fate."
"Hehe, I heard that they also counted Wen Gushan's suspension on your head."
"What's the matter with the?! What a great injustice! ”
"Of course I know that you are wronged, but others don't know, not to mention that there are people who deliberately pour dirty water on your head."
"Then this beam is so concluded? Is the thing in the greedy public so at ease? Why do those people have a problem with Qinglei and forget who is the serious housewife? ”
"I'll tell you a secret, it's a real secret, you don't know anything when you leave me."
"Auntie doesn't know that the maid's mouth is the same as a mussel shell." Bai Ko patted his mouth, squeezed his eyebrows and smiled.
Aunt Nie San laughed and poked Bai Ko's head.
The third lady deliberately picked some people with many faults to serve her aunt and concubines, and when someone made a mistake, she would naturally beat her aunt. I see? There are not many good ones waiting for their aunts and concubines, and they expect these fools to have the brains to figure out the great relationship? Don't laugh. Aunt Fu knows the tricks played by the third lady, she uses money to win people's hearts, and there is no mistake in the hands of the third lady, and then blows the pillow wind in front of the third master, see how old she is and still loves endlessly, the children have given birth to three, and she has the most concubines in the house. ”
"Hey, I'm glad the long house doesn't have any of this mess."
"Why is the housework of the long house too peaceful, the eldest lord loves his wife, although he has been an official outside for many years, his aunt waits for him every day, but they don't have a belly, the eldest lady gives birth to four in a row, and the backyard is quiet and quiet, so he naturally has the energy to focus on raising children."
"Aunt Fu uses money to collect the people in the courtyard to be loyal to her, don't expose her mistakes in front of the third lady, but everyone knows what the maid reported, will the third lady say a little?"
"Then I don't know, where can we guess what the masters think?"
"Yes! Forget it, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, now that they know about it, I believe they will not be greedy for straw bags in the future. Bai Ko knew that the eldest lady had reached an agreement with the third lady to settle the general account at the end of the month, but there was no need to talk about this matter again.
After saying goodbye to Aunt Nie, Bai Ko walked into the kitchen compound, and as soon as Lu Doudou saw her, he rushed over and pulled her aside to ask her about the complaint.
"Did you really go to the eldest lady for a few straw bags in the ice cellar?"
"You all know?! The news spread so fast! ”
"The east kitchen is in the back house, of course this kind of news spreads quickly, and the girls who came to get breakfast said that they leaked their mouths, saying that it was the news from the ice cellar."
"They just ate my candy yesterday, and when they came home in the evening, they leaked the news, they are all women who have given birth, and their brains are so confused." Bai Ko was lazy to distinguish which of the eight people had a weak mouth, so she made a decision to simply retreat together.
"Don't be angry, slowly, it's not me who sow discord, I don't think anyone is unconvinced by you, after all, you are only a few years old, and now you are a deacon, it is possible to deliberately mistreat you out of envy and jealousy, and if you make a mistake, others will have the opportunity to replace you."
"It's a real thing." Bai Ko took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on her face, and put this matter aside for the time being, she had more important things to tell Lu Doudou.
"Early in the morning of the ninth day of the fifth month, a few of you will help me make some snacks, the second lady wants it, she has a niece that day."
"Okay, okay, how many are you going to do?"
"One hundred, I'll talk to Steward Zeng in a while, and prepare in advance."
"Okay, I'll hear you." Lu Doudou excitedly went to Wanqiu and Hongsu and told them about it.
Bai Ko also immediately went to Zeng Zhu and told her about preparing bean paste in advance, Zeng Zhu agreed and promised to prepare fresh bean paste for her on the eighth day of the new year.
After finishing the work step by step at noon, after lunch, Bai Qiao went directly back to Wenling Courtyard, and when she went to the small kitchen to drink water, the girls told her that she had heard the news from the second mother-in-law that the news of the seventh young master's subordinates greedy for straw bags in the ice cellar had spread.
Bai Ko rolled her eyes, went back to the house and wrote a note to Pang's mother, writing down the things that she told them to keep it secret yesterday, and now it is still known to everyone, so the eight daughters-in-law all returned and replaced, and none of the subordinates with unreliable mouths were wanted.
Then I sent a little girl to send it over immediately.
The little girl sent the letter for a while before coming back, and Pang's mother wrote a reply directly on the paper, asking Bai Ko to wait in the ice cellar tomorrow afternoon to pick up the second batch of newcomers.
In addition, there was nothing else to worry about that day, Bai Ko woke up in the small kitchen after taking a nap, making snacks and stewing side dishes for everyone.
She made a new pot of marinade, and now everyone is homemade three meals a day, a young master has ten maids and maids waiting, ten people's daily servants, ten people's daily servings are actually quite considerable, Bai Ko has flexibility when writing the list of ingredients, to some wing tips, chicken feet, duck neck, duck paws and the like, marinated on a full pot with different small jars, take a can to eat at a time, can eat for several days, appetizing and satisfying.
Because only the egg yolk is used when making dim sum, and there is a big bowl of egg whites left, Bai Ko asks people to break up the egg whites and steam them directly in the pot, take them out and cut them into small slices after cooling in ice water, and throw them into the marinated pot together, and the finished product is the dried braised eggs.
When the young masters sat at the table and prepared to eat snacks, they put a plate of fresh side dishes like marinated dishes, chicken feet and duck paws were marinated in advance, which was convenient to eat, and the tips of the wings and duck necks were snacks.
The brothers both praised this braised vegetable for doing well, and asked Bai Ko to make a platter at night and send it to Rong Entang, and the sixth young master also made a special inquiry about the method of dried eggs, and explained it to the old grandmother when he kept it for dinner.
When it was time for dinner, the food box sent to Rong En Tang not only contained a lo-mei platter, but also a vegetarian dish made of mushrooms, spicy beef jerky, which was delicious and appetizing, and a perfect match for rice.
Later in the day, when everyone had finished their supper and the kitchen was cleaned up, everyone washed their hands and took out a set of sausage stuffing tools and began to get busy.
Usually, the sausages in the house are prepared in winter, and now everyone is curious about making sausages in this summer, but Bai Ko thinks it is strange that he can't buy delicious sausages, so he has to make them himself.
Fortunately, this kind of small sausage is not troublesome, the previous steps are the same, just put it in a place away from direct sunlight to dry for a day after the enema, the surface is dry, and then it is steamed and frozen in the pot, and you can eat it whenever and wherever you want
