Chapter 338: Knife Work
Early the next morning, Han Rui waited for Li Xin to have breakfast and then hurried to the kitchen. Although the affairs of the banquet are managed by the steward of the small kitchen, Hanrui is still a little uneasy.
It is always said that it is a great joy for the girl's eyes to be better, and there can be no fault on the day of celebration. A celebration is mainly about everyone sitting together for a meal, and the main thing is the table and drinks. You don't have to make your own wine, it's all good wine bought outside, and someone has already bought it yesterday.
So the thing to worry about here in Qingfeng Yuan is the banquet, and the kitchen manager has repeatedly promised that there will be no difference, but Hanrui still insists on going to the kitchen to watch by herself.
For the fiery Hanrui, Li Xin is really a little helpless.
But with such a person around, it also seems to be more lively. Han Rui went to the kitchen, she thought about it and went to the kitchen, since she could feel a sense of familiarity as soon as she entered the kitchen, maybe she would think of something when she went to the kitchen to see the big guy busy with his work!
I entered the kitchenette, and although it was still early, the kitchen was already busy.
Some dishes take a lot of time to make, so it is important to start cooking early, especially when making some soups. Even if you are not in a hurry to cook for the time being, you can prepare it first, and wash and cut all the side dishes you need.
Han Rui doesn't know much about cooking, so she doesn't command blindly, she just moves a chair and sits on the side and watches.
"Everyone is busy so early!" After entering the door, Li Xin greeted everyone.
"It's Miss Moli! The kitchen is very busy, so the girl should go back to the house and rest! This kitchen is not the place for a girl. The kitchen steward said with a smile.
"Everyone doesn't care about me, they can do whatever they have to do, I just come and see." Li Xin waved his hand.
"That's it, the girl can go wherever she wants, where you can dictate, go on your own! Girl, I'll take care of it. Han Rui glared at the steward and helped Li Xin to sit down on the chair.
Seeing that Li Xin was reluctant to leave, the person in charge didn't say anything more, brought a few snacks and washed a few fruits for Li Xin and Hanrui to eat. There were a lot of things going on in the kitchen, and everyone didn't have much energy to greet the two of them, so they all went their separate ways.
Li Xin looked at the big guy busy, but he really felt that such a scene was very familiar. She may have really helped out in the kitchen of some house before! Otherwise, how could you be familiar with such a scene!
She thought hard, but there were really some vague shadows in her mind, there were many people busy in the kitchen, but she just couldn't see the faces of those people clearly, and after thinking about it hard, she still felt very vague.
The kitchen seemed huge, much bigger than where it is now. It seems that there is a person holding a knife and carving flowers on various vegetables, and all kinds of flowers quickly bloom on the fingertips, lifelike.
"Hanrui, is there anyone in the kitchen who can carve radishes or something?" Li Xin suddenly looked at Han Rui.
"Why did the girl suddenly ask about this?"
"I seem to remember something, there is a person with a knife carving all kinds of patterns, most of the peony flowers out of the radish are lifelike, and you can also carve dragons and phoenixes or something, all very beautiful. But I just can't remember that man's face. ”
"That's it! It seems that the girl should have spent a lot of time in the kitchen before, otherwise she wouldn't have thought of such a thing first. Han Rui sighed, "But people who can do that kind of knife work are very powerful, and there is no such person in this small kitchen." However, there is a man in the big kitchen who has a very good knife work, and if the girl wants to see it, she can go to the big kitchen when she can take a look, or let the man carve a few things for the girl to see. ”
The palace is not the same as the restaurant, the chef in the restaurant is not only good at cooking, but also good at knife work. It is said that the color of the dish is full of color, flavor and flavor, and since the color is at the front, it is still very important to see whether a dish looks good or not.
However, the cooks in the palace only need to make the dishes delicious, and they don't need to make all the bells and whistles. In fact, a lot of carvings are just posing, and they are not entered, so there is really no real use for those patterns.
Therefore, most of the cooks in the house will not have such good knife skills.
"I just said it casually, but I don't need to be in such a hurry, just take a look when I have the opportunity."
"Since the girl said that there is such a person who is a knife worker, there are not too many people with such a knife worker, according to the slave maid! The girl has either stayed in the palace or in a big restaurant. Many people only pay attention to the delicious food when looking for a cook, regardless of the knife work. ”
"That's right, since we have an approximate range, it's easier to do." Li Xin smiled. However, she always felt that such a range was still too big, even if she had really stayed in the palace, but there were so many people in the palace, where was it so easy to find her identity!
If you talk about big restaurants, a country is so big, there are many big restaurants, who knows which one you will stay in!
What kind of identity is she? If she really has a family, why haven't she been looking for her for so long.
"Girl, don't worry! Now that there is a range, it is easier for the prince's people to find, and it may not take too long to find the girl's family. ”
"You're right, anyway, now you can only wait slowly." Li Xin no longer sits, but stood up and looked around in the kitchen. She remembered the amazing knife work, so she also took a large white radish, and took the knife to carve a simple pattern. But after trying, she doesn't seem to know how to do this, and she can't carve such beautiful flowers.
"The girl also wants to carve flowers?"
"I'm just trying, it seems that I can't, no matter how I carve, it doesn't look like a flower!" Li Xin threw things down.
After staying in the kitchen for a while, Li Xin couldn't think of anything anymore, so he left the kitchen first. But there wasn't much to do, so she had to wander around the Qingfeng Garden. She has always just stayed in Qingfeng Garden, and she has never been like this, so she is not used to going out.
I don't know what this Xiangwang Mansion looks like! What is the world outside the palace?
When she has time, she should really go out for a walk, after all, whether she can remember the past or not, she always has to live on her own, so she should still understand what it's like outside.
She couldn't always wait for her memories to come back, what if she couldn't remember them for the rest of her life? Isn't it good to live? No matter what, life has to go on.
There was nothing to do, so she went back to the house to read. Fortunately, although she has forgotten everything, she is still literate, and she has not really become illiterate, and if she forgets everything in the past, it is really a very bad thing.
When she didn't see much before, Hanrui would take a book and read it to her, but now she can finally see it and read it by herself. It's a history book, and it's good to learn more about the world.
She just had a brief understanding of this, and that was what Han Rui told her, this is the Tianchen Dynasty, and the royal family's surname is Yin. As for the customs and customs of various places, Han Rui has never been out much, and he has basically been at home before entering the palace, and after entering the palace, he is almost in the palace every day, and he has never been to a few places in general.
Han Rui said a lot about Yin Yi, Yin Yi is the youngest son of the first emperor, ranked ninth among the brothers, and he was still young when the first emperor died. The eldest son of the current saint is actually only a few years younger than him, and because of his young age, he has not actually participated in any battle for succession.
As I grew up, my abilities gradually revealed. The emperor has always loved this young brother, and he can be regarded as trusting. When he grew up, he was crowned King Xiang and went out of the palace to open the mansion.
Anyway, Han Rui said a lot. Speaking of which, she always felt that Han Rui should have a little admiration for Yin Yi, although Han Rui never admitted it, always said that she was just a slave and didn't dare to think about anything. However, if you really say that you don't have some feelings about a person's affairs, it's really unbelievable.
But those things have nothing to do with her, since Han Rui doesn't want to say more, she won't ask more.
Or maybe she's not a very curious person all along! There are some things that she can't be curious about, and she knows.
When there is something to do, the time flies relatively quickly, and it seems that it is almost noon before you know it. Han Rui finally left the kitchen, saying that the table was ready, and now she was just waiting for Yin Yi and others to come over.
"Lord Wang, why haven't they come here yet!" Hanrui has been looking forward to it.
"It's still early! Don't be in such a hurry, it will always come. Since the prince agreed, he will definitely not break his promise. "Although the time spent together is not too long, I still know a little bit about Yin Yi's personality Li Xin. Yin Yi will definitely not be the kind of person who breaks his word and gets fat, as long as it is something he promises, he will definitely do it.
"This slave knows that the prince has always done what he says, and since he has promised, he will definitely come back. It's just that I can't come here at this time, and I don't know if I'm being held back by some urgency. ”
"Just sit still and wait! You're so impatient! Obviously, it was only a short while, and it felt like a very long time had passed. Sit down! Li Xin sat down on the chair according to Han Rui. When it's time to come, it will naturally come, and if you are in a hurry, he will not come earlier! ”
"Maybe the slave is really too impatient." Han Rui smiled embarrassedly. R1152
