Chapter 10: Trouble [New Book Collection]

Xia Yue came to the kitchen and found that most of the female chefs who were busy in the kitchen were well-dressed, combed high buns, with delicate hair accessories, and had a graceful and luxurious temperament, shrewd and capable.

The kitchen is large, with a large long table in the middle, which divides the kitchen into two, with the dining area on one side and the pasta and dessert area on the other.

There are a few fish on the cutting board in the dining area, a cook standing next to him is rolling up her sleeves, a little past is the stove, the pot is steaming, there are two cooks in charge of cooking, near the door is the sink, a cook is bending down to wash the utensils.

In the pasta area, there are two cooks who are pancakes, one is rolling out the pie crust, the other is responsible for baking in the pot, and there is a cook with a plate next to him checking the food in the cage drawer; In the dessert section, a cook bowed her head slightly, cooking tea attentively, while another peeled an apple, with chiseled crushed ice next to her.

There are a few young girls in the back of the long table who are preparing dishes facing the door, and the dishes that have been prepared are placed on the table, including oven-baked chicken, air-dried fish, steamed anchovies, snowflake crisps, melons, sweet and sour eggplants, water slippery noodles, Hu cakes, head soup, etc., each with its own characteristics, the house is full of fragrance, smell it, and the fragrant smell makes people "drool three thousand feet".

Shuttling back and forth in the kitchen is the shopkeeper, holding a large tray with prepared dishes on it, and they are preparing to deliver food to the front hall.

In Nanshan country, ordinary people are not proud of giving birth to men, but praise girls as "pearls in the palm of their hands". Because of the birth of girls, from an early age can cultivate their piano, chess, painting, female workers, cooking and other talents, especially the cooking skills are the most sought after by the people, these women can rely on their own skills to get a job when they become adults, if there is a cook with extraordinary cooking skills, the average rich and noble family can not afford to invite.

When Xia Yue stood at the door at a loss, a gorgeously dressed cook took the initiative to ask her, "The girl standing at the door, are you new here?" ”

The person who asked was the chef of the restaurant, Sister-in-law Zhang. For a restaurant, there are only fresh ingredients, and there is no skilled chef who can never do it, the chef is the soul of a hotel, and her power is even greater than that of the shopkeeper.

Xia Yue followed the voice and looked over, it was one of the two cooks in the dining area calling her, and she responded with a smile, "Yes, sister." ”

"Hahaha...... Look at this girl's sweet mouth, she calls me young. Sister-in-law Zhang looked at everyone and said.

The cook who was handling the fish in her hands interjected: "The most important thing in kitchen work is to have real skills, and those who don't have real skills must be diligent. ”

When Xia Yue heard this, she said in a proper manner: "Oh...... Good...... I remembered it, and I will study it well in the future. ”

Sister-in-law Zhang walked to Xia Yue's side and said with a smile: "Girl, where are you from?" ”

Xia Yue shook her head and said, "I grew up in a temple in the mountains since I was a child. ”

Sister-in-law Zhang said with a disappointed face: "Oh...... So what can you do? ”

Xia Yue replied frankly: "I'm good at washing vegetables, washing dishes, and cleaning." ”

Sister-in-law Zhang smiled again: "Hahaha, what kind of ability is this, who can't do it if you have hands and feet?" ”

Xia Yue hurriedly added: "I learn things quickly, as long as you are willing to give me a chance, I will do better and better." ”

"That's it, country girl, you can only make do with it." Sister-in-law Zhang waved her hand and said.

She looked around and thought for a while, then said, "You go and help chop the vegetables first, Xiaoyanagi, you can teach me how to do it." ”

"Alas!" A young girl about the age of Natsutsuki responded.

Xia Yue saw that the person who answered the call was the same age, and walked over to greet the other party enthusiastically.

Xiaoyanagi smiled lightly and said, "Look at this...... Is it okay to cut it into evenly sized pieces using the hob method like this? ”

Xia Yue watched her operation carefully, and replied confidently: "Yes!" ”

"Okay, come on."

Xia Yue took the knife, pinched the knife in the same way as a girl, and went down with a knife, the actual operation was as simple as she thought, Xiaoliu nodded with satisfaction, and went to work on something else.

Xia Yue did it very carefully, in order to ensure that each small piece was evenly sized, she used her hands to make a simulation before she started, and she was careful when cutting the knife, although the cutting was good but too time-consuming.

At the peak of the meal, Xia Yue was replaced to wash vegetables because the chopping action was too slow.

The work of washing vegetables is carried out in the yard. There is a bamboo pipe in the yard, and the flowing water flows out from the bamboo pipe and is poured into the big man below, and a basin and a small bucket are placed next to the big man, and the small bucket is used to fetch water when washing vegetables.

The only vegetables Xia Yue knows are tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants and garlic, and when she encounters vegetables she doesn't know, she always has to run to ask others how to deal with them.

"You wouldn't do anything as simple as that!"

Hearing these hurtful words, she secretly wiped her tears aggrievedly.

Next, she began to try to classify the vegetables, the long leaves into one category, the melons and fruits into one category, and then according to the experience of processing, according to her own understanding, the washed vegetables were sent to the kitchen, and then came back to continue washing.

Suddenly, the kitchen exclaimed, "Oh my God! Where did my green onion go? ”

When everyone heard the sound, they looked over, and there was a basket of green onion leaves neatly placed in the vegetable basket, and there was no white shadow of the green onion.

Sister-in-law Zhang took the side dish girl, and the side dish girl carried the vegetable basket and went outside to find Xia Yue menacingly.

As soon as they met, Xia Yue didn't have time to say hello, and Sister-in-law Zhang scolded sharply: "What are you washing?" ”

The girl with the side dish showed Xia Yue the green onions in the basket.

Xia Yue was about to answer, but was blocked back by Sister-in-law Zhang's choked words: "Let you wash a dish, you don't know anything, you have to ask others about everything, why do you make your own decisions when you wash green onions?" Is this wash still called green onions? Where did all the green onions go? What you eat is green onions, you are good, throw them all away for me! I'm so angry, I've never seen such a stupid person as you! ”

Xia Yue knew that she had done something wrong, and apologized vigorously: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"

The matter has happened, and no matter how much she scolds Xia Yue, she can't solve the problem, and in the end, there is really no way, so Xiao Er, who alarmed the female shopkeeper and arranged for the hall, hurriedly went out to purchase a batch, and the matter was temporarily over.

In order to persuade Sister-in-law Zhang to let Xia Yue continue to work in the kitchen, the female shopkeeper made her angry.

Sister-in-law Zhang's new job for Xia Yue is to cut pork belly, just cut the meat into slices of equal size, pork slices are just a dish ingredient that is not so popular with diners, and she is not in a hurry to use it.

She was a little nauseous and retching when she saw the pork belly on the board, but she didn't dare to let others know about her special reaction to pork, because she was afraid that she would be kicked out, so she took the job head-on.

As soon as Xia Yue's hand touched the moist raw pork, her whole face turned green, and she cut it with bated breath, turning the river and the sea in her stomach every time she stabbed it. Every time she touches the pork, the meat responds to her with a flicker.

Sister-in-law Zhang noticed her strange appearance, walked over, and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Xia Yue pursed her lips tightly, her brows tightened, she used all her strength to suppress her discomfort, and just opened her mouth to say one word: "I...... Wow-"

only heard a grunt, Xia Yue vomited Sister-in-law Zhang's body of vomit, and then, a peculiar smell was emitted.

"Ah——!h Sister-in-law Zhang screamed in shock.

Everyone followed the prestige, and they were all stunned!

Xia Yue's disaster this time can poke a big hole in the sky.
