Chapter 38: Yang Gu
"Ahem... Ahem"
I don't know if it was because I deliberately interrupted this discussion or because of an itchy throat, but the few coughs of the chronicler succeeded in stopping the gossip discussion of these chefs.
"Anyway, this matter has been decided now, you can discuss who will assist her in the work here in the big kitchen during this time."
Hearing this, the following chefs looked at each other, and no one wanted to stand up and take this job.
The gossip news in the house has always spread quickly, and most people know about the incident that happened a few times ago, as for why Steward Xu recommended her to the birthday banquet, everyone knows the reason, but they didn't say it.
What's more, the birthday banquet of the Sikong Mansion in the countryside is also unprecedented, although the fourth lady values her, but after all, the fourth miss is not in the mansion now, and she will not be able to come back for a while, if there is something wrong with the birthday banquet, the eldest lady will blame it, and no one can bear it.
A few chefs look at me, I look at you, and then look at the floor and the ceiling, and even stare at the pillars on the side too much.
These people inevitably behaved too obviously, Hua Mian felt that she was being treated as a fool, obviously they didn't want to be their helpers, maybe because they were the head of the big kitchen, or they didn't want to offend Steward Xu.
"That,If everyone is busy,I can do it myself" To be honest, Hua Mian prefers to do it herself, judging from the emotions shown by these people in front of her, if you really let them cooperate with their work, they will probably only be more tired.
"No, this is the law of the house, and the dishes involving the banquet must be completed by at least two or more chefs, and no one can afford to have an accident."
"But..."
Perhaps seeing Hua Mian's concerns, the steward looked around the room, and finally fixed his eyes on the person sitting in the back row holding a scroll in his hand and looking at the fascinated person.
This man sat in the back row furthest from the two, and had not been involved in the conversation since the moment he had been.
"Yang Gu, this job is handed over to you, you are responsible for assisting Miss Huamian to prepare the dishes for this banquet."
Hearing the words of the Ji Steward, the chefs in the big kitchen present all showed shocked expressions.
"Huh? Huh? What's going on? Seeing the change in everyone's expressions due to a sentence, Hua Mian was also a little overwhelmed by the atmosphere, could it be that this Yang Gu would be some kind of terrible character?
"Actually assigned to Yang Gu, he is a well-known lone ranger, he never cooperates with others, and he is just a person who works together every day, and now let him cooperate with such a girl for a birthday banquet, I can't think of it"
"If you want me to see, the trick of managing things is wonderful, doing things with Yang Gu, I'm afraid this girl will retreat early"
"It's good to let this little girl see the technology of the big kitchen, so she doesn't think she'll be able to cook a few country dishes, but it's just because the masters haven't seen a fresh fancy picture."
Listening to the discussions of the people around her, Hua Mian smiled bitterly in her heart, this feeling of being bullied in the workplace seems familiar, but I didn't expect to encounter it even if I traveled to another world.
On the other side, Yang Gu also heard the content of the discussion, continued to look at the book in his hand, and said directly without raising his eyelids, "Forgive me for refusing"
Hearing that the other party refused so decisively, Hua Mian breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to say that he could do it alone, when the Ji steward suddenly said, "Don't talk about it anymore, this matter is settled"
"Don't look at Yang Gu's appearance, craftsmanship is also famous in the big kitchen"
