Chapter 7: The Head

We had already arrived at the kitchen door while we were talking, and Lan Xiang yelled inside.

An old woman came out of the door, looked at me with a salty look, and nodded to Lan Xiang.

Lan Xiang opened her mouth and said: "Aunt Qin, this is Chen Fengming, you will work in the kitchen in the future, you can help take care of it, and in the future, the work of sprinkling and cleaning the kitchen will be taken care of by my maid." ”

Aunt Qin looked me up and down expressionlessly, and asked me, "How old are you?" ”

"Fourteen, when I was in the Qiwang Mansion before, I worked in the kitchen, I can do anything, although Aunt Qin told me."

"Then come in with me." After Aunt Qin finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the kitchen.

Lan Xiang tugged at my sleeve and whispered in my ear: "Sister don't worry, Aunt Qin is not kind on her face, but she is like this to everyone, she doesn't mean to target you, she is not bad, she is a little difficult to get along with, Aunt Qin is an old man in the house, even my mother has to give her a little thin noodles, I am not good at speaking in front of her, but if anyone else in this kitchen dares to find fault with you..." ”

I tugged at the sleeve of Lalan's shirt.

In my current situation, the little girl has a lot of responsibilities, and she is not afraid of making trouble for herself.

Lan Xiang understood and patted the back of my hand gently, "Sister, don't be afraid, whoever dares to bully you, I will make him unable to get along in this mansion!" ”

A few muttering little maids beside us were so frightened that they quickly silenced them, bowing their heads and busy with their own work.

I knew that Lanxiang was sincere to me, and I felt a little grateful in my heart.

Lan Xiang said a few more words to me, and then waved goodbye to me.

I'm not afraid of others squeezing me, I'm used to being squeezed by people when I'm small, and the soldiers will block the water to cover the soil, Chun Niang said I'm a little loach, no matter how cold and hard the soil can be drilled through my heart.

I think I'm a cockroach that can't be killed, not only can't you kill me, but I also chase after you.

Hey, it's not annoying.

"Why don't you come in yet?"

Aunt Qin urged me, and I hurried to the kitchen.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I was surrounded by a stream of heat, and the familiar smoke made me feel a little relieved.

"Your name is Chen Fengming?"

"Yes, Aunt Qin."

"Come with me."

I followed Aunt Qin step by step.

"All the nobles in our house have their own small kitchens, and the small kitchens are responsible for the daily diet of the nobles, and we are mainly responsible for the sacrifices, banquets, and other important banquets in the house."

I nodded, what Aunt Qin said was similar to that of the Qi Palace.

"The master occasionally wants to eat some fresh food, come to us, let us make it, and give a little reward."

"Hmm."

Aunt Qin led me to a row of cabinets, which were full of porcelain, all kinds of bowls, wine cups, wine glasses, wine jugs, and thousands of pieces as far as the eye could see.

"The masters all have special utensils, and in order to avoid confusion, there are inscriptions under the porcelain. Also, different sacrifices, festivals, celebrations, the porcelain used is also different, the size of the banquet is different, and the porcelain used is different, you have to write down these things as soon as possible. ”

I smacked my tongue and nodded.

I couldn't help but complain in my heart, there are really a lot of verbosity in this Xiangguo Mansion, which is more magnificent than the Qi Wangfu.

Aunt Qin led me to meet a few maids and maids in the kitchen, everyone has their own division of labor, I am blind, and I can't recognize all these people for a while, but one of them is a girl named Silly Niu, who keeps smiling at me, which makes me extra impressed.

I was assigned by Aunt Qin to help the face case, the face master is a middle-aged uncle, everyone calls him Uncle Kunzi, Uncle Kunzi has a very good personality, chubby, he smiles when he sees people, he is the father of the silly aunt, and he has been working in the Qiwang Mansion for more than ten years.

Silly aunt is actually not stupid, but a little silly, she was scared when she fell into the water when she was a child, and she didn't like to talk after that, she only loved to laugh, but she understood everything, although the reaction was a little slow, if she was told something, she had to tell her more than three times.

"The work of the noodle case is simple, it is nothing more than baking cakes, steaming steamed buns, making noodles, our work is not brilliant, but it is not tired." Uncle Kunzi said to me while kneading the dough.

The silly girl squatted next to the stove to add fire to the stove, looked at me from time to time, and made fun of me.

The silly girl laughs when she sees people, but she smiles at me extra attentively, other people, it is her eyes that catch a glimpse of her, she will smile at others, to me, she is looking for her own sense of existence, I don't look at her and she smiles at me, I narcissistically think, this girl should like me.

"Girl, what do you want?"

Uncle Kun Zi tapped the board lightly with a rolling pin, and I quickly came back to my senses.

"I didn't think about anything, Uncle Kunzi, where did you go?"

"I said, the nobles in our house don't like to eat pasta, but the maids in our house have to eat steamed bread and pancakes every day, there are a total of 1,372 people in the house, each person has a steamed bun a day, a pancake, we have to get up to work since we were ugly."

My jaw dropped. "So much?!"

Is this workload still called tiring?

There are seven people in the noodle table in the Qiwang Mansion, and there is not so much work every day, because pasta is not the mainstream food that those dignitaries and dignitaries like to eat.

And now, Uncle Kun Zi plus me and the stupid girl are only three people, and they actually make more than a thousand steamed buns a day!

Uncle Kun scratched his head embarrassedly, "Chief Qin also assigned me a few helpers, but I didn't ask for any." ”

"Then how did you fall in love with me?"

"Because silly girls like you."

Oh, thanks to the love of your father and daughter.

The first day I worked in the kitchen was so tired and unconscious that I don't remember how I managed to crawl back into my house.

After a day of kneading my dough, my wrists were about to break, and the bones on my body were about to fall apart, as if I had been pressed to the ground and ravaged a thousand times.

I found the bed in a daze, my head next to the pillow began to fall asleep, until the top of the moon, I was fighting with Su Molai in a dream, and I was fighting to a hearty place, and suddenly a clinking sound woke me up from my dream.

I opened my eyes sleepily, looked around, it was dark and I couldn't see anything clearly, I sat up from the bed, put on my shoes, and stumbled to the edge of the table, it turned out that my kettle had fallen to the floor.

This is the only kettle I have.

I crouched down, distressed at the shattered pieces of porcelain.

"I'm going to drink water from now on."

"Hee-hee." A shrill and piercing laugh suddenly came to my ears, and I searched around, but there was no one.

"Did I hear it wrong?"

Just as I was about to go back to bed and continue sleeping...... A head popped out of my feet!

"Hee-hee."

The man's loose hair covered most of his face, except for a bloody mouth grinning at me with white millet fangs.

"Hee-hee."

I was stunned for a moment.

"Hee-hee."

As a courtesy, I smiled with it.

The head was stunned for a moment.

Unfortunately, I'm too tired to stay overnight tonight.

So I'm going to get it out.

I used the window as a goal, then flew up and kicked the head out of the ground.

The head made an "oops" and shot towards the window, but unfortunately I checked my crosshair a little, and the head didn't fly out, but it hit the window frame and bounced back.

"Oops, it hurts me."

I looked down and saw that the back of my head was swollen with a bag the size of a steamed bun.

I unceremoniously ordered the eviction, "Do you go out by yourself, or will I make up for it?" ”

"You little girl, your heart and eyes are also broken, why are you kicking me in a good manner?"

"Are you a pig? And hit a rake. In the middle of the night, you ran into my house to scare me, and I kicked you lightly, did you see my feet? My Mighty Foot is ready for a second launch, what's wrong? Are you rolling on your own? Or do I send you out? ”

The head grinned, leaking out its small fangs, and asked in an uncertain tone, "You, you, aren't you afraid of me?" ”

"I, I, I'm scared to death." I feigned fear and asked, "How?" Satisfied? It's time to get out. ”

The head held his mouth aggrievedly, and then cried out with a wow.

At the same time, a flash of lightning struck, followed by a rumbling of thunder, and in an instant a torrential rain began to fall.

, what kind of magic skill is this!

This shocked me more than seeing a ghost!

"Shut up!"

His head was frightened, and he stopped crying for a while, and the pouring rain outside stopped in an instant.

"What the hell are you?!"

My head was about to cry again, so I quickly softened my tone and comforted: "Don't cry first, let's chat, I'll talk well and promise not to beat you." ”

The head wanted to nod, but unfortunately there was a shortcoming in the figure, and when he was raised, it turned into a kowtow, and his head hit the ground directly.

It's really a silly one.

"What's your name?"

"Everybody calls me Head."

"Hmm, good name, apt."

"Why are you in my house?"

"This is my house, and you broke into my house."

It seems to be a land-sitting household.

"I see that you look like a ghost but not a ghost, like a demon but not a demon, and not like an immortal, how can you have the magic skill of calling the wind and rain?"

"I don't know."

I grabbed my hair with my hand irritably, "There is a place for ghosts, there is a place for demons, you are not a human after all, why do you live in Xiangguo's mansion?" ”

"I'm looking for my body."

"Your body was lost in Xiangguo's mansion? How did you lose it? ”

The head shook its head, "I don't remember." ”

"You're really a fool."

"Hey, Xiao Sixi, they always call me that."

"Looks like you're not the only ghost in this yard."

"Oops!" The head hurriedly covered his mouth with his hair, and said, "They won't let me say it." ”

I pursed my lips, "Hey, I'm not uncommon to ask." ”

I stood up, flicked the ashes off my body, and asked as if unintentionally, "You have nothing to do, can you make a table of mahjong?" ”

The head replied happily: "Not only one table, but four or five tables!" ”

"it!"

My broken yard is a little lively!
