Chapter 17: A Trouble in the Kitchen

The cooks and helpers who were chatting all the way to this side with lanterns suddenly saw a faint squatting person outside the gate, and it was really a big surprise to them in the unknown light of the day.

"What people?! Stand up! ”

Qi Ke stood up obediently, she just came out to make a appearance, and she didn't want to conflict with the cooks, the people who worked in the kitchen either had big shoulders or strong muscles, and it was estimated that the usual food was good, anyway, no one had a big neck at a glance, and her body and bones like a reed stick, it was very irrational and a waste of time to conflict with them.

Seeing her get up, and then seeing her appearance and figure clearly, the cooks and helpers couldn't help but gasp, there were people like this in the house?

Qi Ke saw their expressions, and knocked a few times on the padlock of the gate with a firewood knife in his hand.

"Open the door." Qi Ke's voice was full of impatience.

"Who are you? Where did it come from? And stole our hatchet! Return the knife! , I'm going to beat you up if I don't leave! "The kitchen people use knives every day, where will they be afraid of the firewood knife in her hand, a handyman came forward and scolded, and stretched out his hand to grab the knife, they can see clearly, this firewood knife is good steel.

Qi Ke's wrist flicked, and the firewood knife ran to the other party's hand to slash, although the person was not afraid of the knife, but he didn't want to be injured by the knife, and while hurriedly retracting his hand, Qi Ke raised his other hand, and the small watering can hidden in the palm of his hand was aimed at his face.

"Ahh The handyman fell to the ground suddenly, his face was hot and painful, choking and spicy, tears and snot flowed wildly, and there was a strange smell in his nose and mouth that went straight to the depths of his brain.

The cooks and handymen were taken aback by this sudden turn of events, and took a few steps back to watch vigilantly, while the man standing at the back of the head slipped out as fast as he could to report the news under the cover of his companions.

I don't know where this stinky Hanako ran into the house and made a fuss, so I had to report it to the steward quickly.

After Qi Ke put down this person, he knocked on the padlock on the door again with a firewood knife, and it was still those two words, "Open the door." ”

"Who are you, you? Do you know what this place is? Run here and go wild! I'm tired of you! "The chef knew that he couldn't retreat, he was the head of the whole kitchen, and if he shrank back, and when the matter in front of him subsided, the people below would definitely be ready to rebel.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and open the door, the house that my mother Ji Xiaorui bought, I'm tired of walking around? Well? Who gave you so much courage? ”

“…… Ji Xiaorui? Mrs. Ji? An old man's surprised voice sounded at the back of the crowd, "Are you the eldest lady?" ”

"What Miss?!" Everyone in the kitchen suddenly noticed the smell of Gaomen's inprivacy, and they all looked for the sound and turned back.

Qi Ke also looked over, and looked like an old man who was at least forty or fifty years old, and his hair was more than half gray, but who knew his real age.

"The eldest lady is the only daughter of the eldest lady of the old man, but since the death of that lady, the old lady has replaced a large number of people in the house who serve the master closely, except for the old people who are used to it, the new people don't know that there is a eldest lady in the house, and they all call the eldest daughter of the second master the eldest lady."

The old man recounted the past.

"Xiao Lao'er has always been a kitchen handyman, looking at the kitchen at that time almost everyone was replaced, the steward saw that Xiao Lao'er was too old to sell for money, so he was kind, since his wife died of illness, there has been no news of the eldest lady, I didn't expect to see the eldest lady today."
