Gu Yun returned home from school, and it wasn't until the two of them finished eating snacks that they saw Bai Ko coming over with the ice cellar regulations that he had just written, and asked the sixth young master to hand it over to the eldest lady.

"White, I've become your messenger. Dare to call the young master, you are not small. The sixth young master watched his girl take the charter, tilted her head slightly and pouted.

Seeing that the little young master had an expression of wanting to think about the conditions, Bai Ko grinned, "Sixth young master, have you finished eating beef jerky?" ”

Being told the central matter, the sixth young master Gu Chen stuck out his tongue a little embarrassed, "It was just a little bit last time, and I haven't tasted it yet, so it's gone." ”

"Sixth young master, the harvest rate of a pound of fresh meat made into jerky is about forty percent, and one pound of sixteen taels, a proportion of forty percent, you might as well calculate how much jerky you can get?"

Gu Yun raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately calculated the answer, and his younger brother was not slow, he raised his hands and made a gesture of an empty abacus, and he had the answer with a few slight movements of his fingers.

"A pound of fresh beef only costs more than six taels of beef jerky?!" Gu Chen was a little surprised, "No wonder you can't enjoy eating." ”

"Does the Sixth Young Master want to continue eating beef jerky? Or do you want to eat honey-glazed pork jerky? ”

"Do you have one today?!" Sixth Young Master Gu Chen looked at Bai Ko with hope.

"Not today." White Kom shook his head cruelly.

"So, tomorrow?"

Bai Qiao shook his fingers, leading Gu Chen's gaze to move to the text in his girl's hand.

"Sixth young master, is the servant grateful first?"

"Okay, I'll just send you a message."

Gu Yun saw that his younger brother had lost his principles for a little snack, and he was a little congested, and secretly prayed that his younger brother would never grow into the figure of the third uncle's concubine.

Gu Chen wiped his mouth, got up from the table, said hello to his brother, and led the girl back to Jicheng Hall to deliver the letter.

The matter of really transmitting Wen Jiàn naturally didn't take care of the sixth young master's own hands, and his girl just handed over the things to Pang's mother and it was over, but it was said that Bai Qiao used pork jerky as a condition to exchange the sixth young master as a messenger.

The girl was a little indignant when she talked about this, and complained to Pang's mother that Bai Ko was too lazy to die, either letting the sixth young master pass the message on her behalf, or letting the third young master run errands on her behalf, why couldn't she move her legs.

Mother Pang seemed to have heard the girl's complaint in her ears, but in fact, she turned around and didn't take it seriously, and secretly shook her head at the girl's sluggishness.

What a conspicuous thing this is, if the eldest lady was not happy that the two young masters always passed letters for Bai Ko, she would naturally have already shown it, how could she let her borrow the young master's hand again and again.

Bai Ko is doing her best to show her due value, and the eldest lady is happy to give her this little convenience, and will not find fault with her shortcomings too much.

At the same time, in Wenling Yuan, Bai Ko is using a little leisure time before cooking dinner to write a list of kitchen utensils for the large oven in the east kitchen, as well as daily necessities for the cooks and ladies for the feast.

This purchase list does not need to be approved by the eldest lady first, but Bai Ko still showed the list to the third young master, and by the way, he told him about Lu Meihua's sudden illness, Zeng Zhu's general authority can only be to invite people to find a doctor on the street in time, and he still has to report to the head of the house afterwards.

And Bai Ko is a ready-made microphone between the East Kitchen and the master.

Gu Yun took the opportunity to ask for good night and told his mother about it.

Early the next morning, Bai Ko handed over the purchase list to Yan Bo, there were no things to be customized separately, they were all spot items that could be bought with money in the market, the size of a large oven, but it was easy to buy kitchenware.

In the morning, I practiced boxing step by step, and sorted out the housekeeping, and when I saw that the time was almost up, Bai Ko went to the east kitchen.

After entering the kitchen yard, Bai Ko first went to the pantry to find Zeng Zhu and told her that the purchase of oven tools had been handed over to Yan Bo.

Zeng Zhu thanked her, gave Bai Ko a cup of tea, watched her drink it and let her go to the shade to rest and sweat.

Suddenly being treated so favorably made Bai Ko a little flattered, she obediently stood under the big tree in the courtyard to enjoy the shade, and when she was looking at the other people in the courtyard, Lu Doudou sneaked out from behind the tree, wanting to play a prank, but Bai Ko heard a strange movement behind her, looked back, and saw Lu Doudou in a posture of teeth and claws.

"What are you doing? So excited on a hot day? Bai Ko knew that Lu Doudou loved to make faces, but it was rare for her to make such exaggerated movements.

"Because I'm happy!" Lu Doudou pounced on Bai Ko, hugged her arm and whispered.

"Found the money?"

"I'm happier than picking up money!"

"To say or not to say?"

"The eldest lady sent someone to send Steward Lu home and asked her to suspend her work and recuperate! Do you think that's good news? Lu Doudou didn't dare to let others know that she was happy to be like this, and it was really hard to hold back.

"Dirty and dryness must first be calm, less stimulated and less angry, which requires the unanimous cooperation of the whole family, and Steward Lu's family can be harmonious?"

"I don't know, I'll find out when Wanqiu and Hongsu come back."

"Why?"

"Steward Lu was so sick that she couldn't get out of bed, and the people sent by the eldest lady carried her back on a stretcher, and Wanqiu and Hongsu were sent by Steward Zeng to help pack their luggage and went home together."

"No wonder, I said I didn't see them. The atmosphere in the courtyard is also not right, it is too quiet. ”

"You weren't there when the third young master called the doctor to check everyone's pulse that day, so you don't know the details, now these cooks and cooks, except for our ten newcomers, the rest of them are somewhat bad, they are worried that they will go home due to illness one day, how can they have the heart to chat and tell jokes."

"What about the body that was in charge?"

"She is on the good side, otherwise the third young master will not directly order her to be the acting manager, if the four stewards are not good, according to the rules, you have to raise someone from the first-class cook to replace you temporarily, it will be even more chaotic."

"Without Steward Lu, there are only three stewards left."

"Well, the male chef is not affected, they are happy to watch the show now, I heard them say that there are people in the kitchen who want to make up for the lack of Steward Lu, even if it is temporary."

"Then the eldest lady ordered, the cook is not qualified to be the face master, they have to go to pat the steward's fart, give gifts to her family, and ask the steward to mention their names in front of the eldest lady."

"Do you have to give a gift just to mention your name?"

"Yes, the competition between the cooks in private is much more fierce than on the surface, and everyone who is involved in the family is counted. Steward Lu's illness must be recuperated, and next summer will be the promotion competition for stewards to be promoted to general manager, imagine it? ”

Lu Doudou stuck out his tongue and stopped talking.

After a while, the stewards came out of the pantry, and everyone gathered around to wait for the dispatch, but the first thing Zeng Zhu said was to announce Bai Ko as her deputy in public until the end of the filial piety banquet.
