Chapter 1284: Willing to Be an Ugly Girl 20
Eat well, wash well, and sleep soundly. When Xining woke up the next day, she asked Ah Ling to inform the kitchen and deliver breakfast at eight o'clock in the future.
Ah Ling went to the kitchen, and when she returned, she was followed by two cooks carrying low tables.
This amount was okay in the morning, and she didn't eat much for breakfast in her previous mission.
Xining took the chopsticks and ate, and asked leisurely: "The chef who is in charge of dim sum, the monthly silver is increased by 10%. ”
"Yes, Miss!" Ah Ling responded, and her eyes understood the reason at a glance.
The plate for the snacks is a large plate with a full basket on top. The basket is made of honey and rice noodles, kneaded into thin strips, grouped into bundles, twisted into rings, and fried in oil, just like steamed dumplings. It's just that the baskets here are made more delicately, as thin as a hair, and each one is only the size of a small bowl for rice. It's small and delicate, and it's crispy when you look at it.
After breakfast, I left a snack and moved the low table back.
The cook who was in charge of the dim sum was stunned when she learned that her monthly silver had increased. In fact, I know that the lady has a big appetite, so I simply give more snacks, and don't always go to the kitchen to serve a pot. made her have to do it every time, but she didn't expect to hit it crookedly and increase her salary!
Seeing the happy appearance of the cook, everyone's hearts were a little sour, and they were thinking about whether to add more next time.
After breakfast, I made my clothes first, and now I am almost comfortable. In this era, there were no sewing machines, and they were all sewn by hand.
Xining's sewing eyes were dazzled, and she felt that it was far away for this dress to be sewn by herself. Looking around, the maids and maidservants were busy inside and outside the house, cleaning, tidying, and mopping the floor.
"Ah Ling, go and ask, who knows how to needlework." Hiinin decided to use the power of the masses.
Almost all will, after all, it's not a lady, and I don't have so much spare money to find someone, and sometimes I need to tinker with it myself.
Xining asked them to recommend themselves, and some of them were wearing clothes that they had mended, and there was actually one who could knit and mend them.
"You sew up your belt...... You sew this piece and this piece together...... You are responsible for hemming the hem of the clothes...... "After Xi Ning sent the family down, he leaned on his side, with a basket in front of him, and ate comfortably and slowly. Watch as the four of them sew their hands and feet quickly.
Ah Ling sorted out the boxes that had not yet been sorted out and put sundries, and looked at the side of sewing clothes from time to time. This dress is so small, what kind of demon is the young lady going to do?
There is a lot of strength, and the clothes are ready in half a day, and Xining happily puts them on and tries them.
Ah Ling helped straighten and arrange her dress, and couldn't help muttering: "Miss, what kind of clothes is this, why is it so weird?" It's similar to Li Shu's clothes, but it's not like it. ”
"This is a Hanfu song. Twelve imitations of Tang costumes, and the people's clothes imitate Hanfu. If you look at the calligraphy and paintings that Tang Yun came, you can see that the people in the paintings are wearing this kind of clothes. Xining turned around and showed, "How's it going?" ”
"It's good-looking, it's good-looking." All the maids and maids said yes.
Xining raised her chin slightly: "Well, I also feel good." ”
Ah Ling almost didn't roll her eyes, what a thing, a strange costume.
The usual clothes finally came out, and it was much more comfortable than those heavy and stuffy twelve orders.
Xining went to the box again, picked up a few pieces one after another, hugged them, and threw them in front of the four slaves: "Don't do anything else, you guys will dismantle all these clothes today." ”
Yes? I'm going to make this strange outfit!
At this time, the kitchen sent someone over and said that the ingredients ordered by the young lady yesterday had been prepared, and what should be done next.
Ah Ling stared, looked at the young lady, dressed in the newly made "weird" clothes, and walked out. Miss, you can just wear it in the house, so that you can run all over the Zhuangzi, okay?
A long, wide and thick rib with pork belly, slightly fat. Xining is very satisfied with this, and the meat of today's cooking needs to be slightly fatter. But this meat is also too big, a full twenty catties, and it can be cut into at least two and sold in the supermarket.
Obviously, these guys had a gluttony yesterday, so be prepared and wait for the leakage.
It's okay to prepare the ingredients in the future, and they can also be more attentive.
There are also ten bamboo shoots on the table, and a small bowl of thick black soybean sauce.
No way, there was no soy sauce in this era, and the soy sauce of the Song Dynasty was still being invented, and now there is only soy sauce.
So Xining "instructed" again: "Cut the meat into pieces of this size, and remove the shell and cut the bamboo shoots into sections." ”
This time, the people in the kitchen were smart, and they all cut up and blanched the water for later use.
Xining has already taken a look at a small pot, which should be used for frying food. The oil is expensive and fried in a small pan.
Looking at the remaining oil in the pot, the smell is fried rice dumplings this morning. The oil is expensive, I don't dare to wash it, and I can use the pot to cook a soup later.
At this time, everyone stared at their noble lady, picked up the spoon, and began to cook.
If outsiders come in at this time, including the parents of the owner, they will definitely rub their eyes, thinking that they have seen something wrong.
Put the meat in the pan and stir-fry directly. Less oil is also good, which is good for health. It's just that now it's not that there is little oil, but that the entire aristocracy is malnourished.
When Xining turned over the pot, everyone stared again, and they saw the meat churning in the pot like a wave and then falling again.
When the meat is slightly fragrant, ask, "Is there rice wine?" ”
Rice wine? The little steward reacted quickly: "There is sake." ”
Xining frowned slightly: "Take it." "I don't know what the dish from sake is tasteful, no, I have to find a way to get some rice wine, a dish of roasted meat, and rice wine can remove the fishy smell.
Pour some sake, then set aside the sauce, put water on it, and start boiling.
Xining covered the lid and wiped his hands with the cloth next to him: "Throw the bamboo shoots in when the seven are ripe, not too much, half of the meat and bamboo shoots, and call me when the meat is slightly crispy." ”
When he had finished speaking, he went out. Hehe, today there is a mat on the big rock. It seems that the little steward still has a heart.
Wait until the meat is cooked, then continue to boil, the water is slightly dry, and the pot is boiled and tasted.
Xining picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of meat in her mouth.
Ah Ling cried, she ate meat again, and Miss ate meat again. It must have been possessed by a meat-eating youkai after falling for the evil last time.
Hmm~, Xining tasted it with her eyes closed, although the taste of this bamboo shoot barbecue is a bit strange, it does not affect its deliciousness.
Immediately picked up a bowl and scooped a small bowl: "I want to take it away." ”
Then he looked left and right: "Is there any rice?" ”
Ah Ling was taken aback, what, I want rice. Three meals a day is the habit of a rough person, how can a young lady be a rough person?
"Yes, yes!" The little steward opened a steamer next to him, and there was rice in it. The rice of this period was steamed.
Xining saw that it was white rice and frowned slightly: "Is there any yellow rice?" ”
The aristocracy ate refined white rice, which was more expensive than yellow rice, which was not fully polished. But the problem is that the fully polished white rice, even the germ is polished together, which exacerbates the vitamin deficiency of the aristocracy, leading to the spread of beriberi.
"Yes!" As soon as the little steward finished speaking, he heard the young lady speak.
"Serve a bowl."
Well? The little steward was stunned, he didn't eat white rice, he ate yellow rice!
As Xining left, she was followed by a maid carrying a low table with roast pork with bamboo shoots and a bowl of yellow rice.
And the kitchen was busy, one by one to grab the meat to eat, and then urged the cook to quickly follow the young lady's method and burn all the remaining ingredients.
