Chapter 129: Yuan Muhan is bound to be there
As soon as they said they would go, the three of them hurriedly got into the car and rushed to the county. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ugly Orange and Zhao Shuzi have never been to the county, and the servants have more or less some expectations in their hearts, and Zhao Shuzi can't help but whip up.
Just like Zhao Shuzi said, the distance is indeed not far, and they arrived in less than half an hour.
On the way here, Zhao Shuzi inquired with passers-by, this county is called Zhuang County, and the ugly orange is really the first time to come.
This Zhuang county is much bigger and more lively than Fangcai's town, and it is overcrowded but still able to walk the carts and horses.
There are small stalls on both sides of the street, selling chickens and ducks, fishing for mountain goods and fish, and those who are close to the village to catch the market.
Looking at this bustle, Chun Tao was a little undecided, she pulled the ugly orange's arm, "Sister, where do you say we are going?" ”
The ugly orange was also dazzled, but she still looked at it, and wanted to find out if there were any pastries, she was thinking about buying everything she needed to buy before she went shopping.
Zhao Shuzi led the mule a little hard, he saw that although there were many people in the county, they all went to one place, he said, "Daughter-in-law, sister-in-law, where are these people going, let's follow, it is estimated that it is a temple fair." ”
Chun Tao's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Okay, okay, it's good to hold a temple fair, let's go where to see first," and left before he finished pulling the ugly orange.
The ugly orange and Zhao Shuzi followed the group of people all the way, and when they arrived at the door of a mansion, the ugly orange didn't say how big the mansion was, in short, it was not a place to hold a temple fair.
Outside the gate of this house, there are actually four stoves, two on the left and right, and there is a desk next to the stove, on which there are cutting boards, kitchen knives, pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
There are people there in front of these four stoves, chopping, chopping, steaming, stir-frying.
There is also the door of this mansion wide open, and on the top stone steps stand six maids, and there is an older man, who should be the steward of this house by his clothes.
Of the six maids, four were holding empty wooden plates, and two were holding wooden trays in their hands, and I don't know what was placed on them, but in short, they were covered with red cloths.
Chun Tao felt curious, if it wasn't for the temple fair, why would there be so many people?
It's just some people stir-frying there, what's so nice about this, she looked at it and asked a lady on the side.
The lady said, "This is a chef." ”
Chun Tao really opened her eyes now, "Recruiting a chef to make such a big formation?" ”
The eldest lady is a good talker, saying that Chun Tao came late, this is not a big formation, even the county order came two days ago, just to do this.
There were noisy voices in the surrounding area, and the ugly orange couldn't hear it clearly, so she had to get closer, Chun Tao asked this, and she felt strange when she heard it, what kind of family is this, looking for a cook and even the county order came.
In fact, this is not to recruit a cook, but to a big official in Jeju This one, it seems that a big official in Jeju has a disease that doesn't eat, what to eat is not fragrant, what to eat is not wanted, the delicacies of the mountains and seas can't pass the mouth, bird's nest shark fin can't get off the stomach, their people are really helpless, so they find their place to see if anyone can make any good meals, if the big official is happy to eat, he said that he will be rewarded heavily.
So all the people from these ten miles and eight villages have come over, and it has been four or five days, and the four stoves at the door of this house are just on the shelf, and anyone who wants to go up can go up, but these days, no one can pry open the mouth of the big official.
Chun Tao listened, half jokingly, "Ugly orange girl, why don't we go up and try it too, maybe we can make things happen by making fools." ”
Ugly orange pouted, "Can this be a score, don't let's go up, I burned a pot of vegetables for others to eat, and I still didn't catch it." ”
The lady listened to the ugly orange say this, and said busily, the people in this house have a wide range of miles, as long as they go up to cook, no matter whether it is good or bad, everyone will give five taels of silver first, and the rice, noodles, and vegetables by the stove are all ready, and people only need to go up to cook vegetables.
The ugly orange understands now, no wonder, she said why so many people have gone up, just at this time, the four of them are cooking, and one of them is still from their village, look at that posture, they can't cook at all, and it takes a lot of effort to even burn the fire.
Chun Tao was also a little eager to try, she dragged the ugly orange, lowered her voice and encouraged her to go together, this fire cooking was originally the business of these women, not to mention that they could get silver if they did it well or badly, why didn't they go.
Ugly Orange was moved, she didn't want to join in the fun, but just like Chun Tao said, why don't you go if she can get five taels of silver for nothing?
She nodded at Chun Tao, "Cheng Li, anyway, it's snowing to beat the child, and it's idle to be idle, and when this one goes down, let's go on and go back early." ”
Chun Tao happily agreed, she took her own basket and the ugly orange basket to the bolt, let him take care of it, and they wanted to go up and get the silver.
After a while, the people in front of them were all ready, except for the ugly orange in their village who couldn't make a fire, and he was still tinkering.
The maids standing at the door of the house came and put their dishes in trays and brought them in, and some of the mothers-in-law came out to clean up the empty stoves.
When the stove was cleaned up, and the three maids who served the dishes also returned, they made a gesture from the steward, who frowned slightly, shook his head, and lifted the red cloth on a tray of maids.
Ugly Orange only heard the people in the four places wow, and Chun Tao sighed even more, good guy, the plates of people are full of silver.
The steward took out three smaller silver ingots and handed them to the three men in front of him, then covered them with a red cloth and said please.
Ugly Orange had to say that Chun Tao's brain was spinning fast, and before she could react, she had already dragged her out of the crowd and pushed her to a stove, and she ran to another stove by herself.
Another stove was also occupied, and those who didn't grab it let out a cry of chagrin.
When the steward saw that the man had arrived, he clapped his hands, and there were a few more maids coming out of the house, carrying a basin of water and a piece of fragrant pancreas.
This ugly orange understands, this is to let them wash their hands, yes, this household is quite particular.
After washing her hands, Ugly Orange looked at the desk, to be honest, she really didn't know what to do, and after looking around, she felt that it was still a scallion egg cake.
If you want to say why the ugly orange wants to do this, there is a reason, I remember when she and Yuan Muhan were in Shili Village, she once also made pancakes, but she didn't know how to mix noodles, and it became a batter under the water, and she couldn't knead it after adding noodles.
So she thought about these rich masters, and estimated that she would take a bite and make him eggs and green onion cakes.
The ugly orange thought so, so she did it, she followed the practice in Shili Village at that time, mixing noodles, rolling skins, picking green onions, hot oil in the pan, baking cakes to beat eggs, and sprinkling green onions out of the pot.
Chun Tao's is also ready, she is making noodles, and the two of them are in a hurry to make do with it.
The maids of the house came out and brought the food they had made into the house, and they went to the steward, waiting for the maids to come out and take the money and leave.
It didn't take long for the maid to come out, the ugly orange and the spring peach looked at each other and smiled, it came out so soon, it seems that there is no play.
A maid went over and said a word to the steward, and the steward seemed to laugh, and he lifted the red cloth to reveal the white silver, and there was another wow.
The steward took out the silver and handed it to Chun Tao, Chun Tao thanked her, and the ugly orange stepped forward, but the steward didn't move, just smiled at her.
A maid beside him walked up to her and beckoned to her, "Girl, please come in with me to receive the reward." ”
The ugly orange pulled the corners of her mouth, yes, this rich man is really good, she is not surprised, after all, the cakes she makes, even General Yuan eats them very well, not to mention a big official.
She turned around and said to Chun Tao, who was stunned, and told her to wait a while, so she went in with this maid.
The ugly orange and the maid entered the house, and An An was divided all the way, and she didn't look around, anyway, she had stayed in Yuan Muhan's house for a while, so no matter how good this house was, it was only bigger than Yuan Muhan's house for her.
After walking for a while, the maid took the ugly orange to a room and left.
Ugly Orange was wondering, and was about to stop her, when she suddenly saw a person standing in the room.
The man was thirty or forty years old, dressed in a satin gown, and always smiled, and when he saw her, the two of them shook their mustaches, "Girl, we meet again." ”
Ugly Orange was stunned for a moment, walked in and looked at him carefully, "Uncle Liu?" Is it really you? ”
Liu Cheng smiled, "Girl, girl, but after more than half a month, you don't recognize me." ”
The ugly orange also smiled, looked at Liu Cheng, and asked, "Uncle Liu, why did you become a big official?" Why are you still sick, aren't you strong? ”
Liu Cheng laughed, "Girl, you ask so much, how can I tell you." ”
The ugly orange tugged at the corners of her mouth, she knew that this old boy would not be so easy to ask questions, so she would do the right thing first and leave with the money.
She glanced left and right beside Liu Cheng, and didn't see her pancakes, she pondered and said, "Uncle Liu, are the cakes I made delicious?" ”
"It's unpalatable!"
This was not said by Liu Cheng, Ugly Orange was slightly stunned, she turned her head, and her eyes widened involuntarily.
The person who came came with a jade crown and curled hair, a light and elegant moon-white robe, just like his person, cold and innocent, but I don't know when this handsome face was actually a little thinner.
Why didn't Ugly Orange think that Liu Cheng was Yuan Muhan's henchman, if he was there, Yuan Muhan would definitely be there......
