Chapter 192. Go with you
The tenth day of the first month is approaching in a blink of an eye.
At three o'clock, Jing Wu came to Zhining Courtyard.
According to the practice of the past, this point in time was when the eldest lady had just returned from Yanhe Hall to ask for peace.
However, when Jing Wu came to the eldest lady's study, he only saw Yan's mother preparing tea and pastries.
Mother Yan saw Jing Wu and looked surprised: "Ah, why did Miss Jing come here this morning?" The eldest lady is going to Guiyutang to meet the guests in a while, I obviously asked Hanzi to go to the front yard to pass the word last night, doesn't Miss Jing know? ”
Yan's mother's expression didn't look like she was lying.
Jing Wu shook his head: "I don't know, I didn't go out last night, but I didn't see Hanzi." ”
Yan's mother was obviously suffocated, and then laughed dryly, a little weak-hearted.
This errand was actually assigned to her by the eldest lady, but since she was called "mother", such a trivial matter as passing the word has not befallen her for many years. Mother Yan was naturally dissatisfied that she was so regarded by the eldest lady as a little maid to run errands, so she turned her head and grabbed Han Zi, who was lazy, and threw this errand to Han Zi.
But I didn't want Hanzi to take her words seriously!
Jing Wu couldn't see through Yan's mother's thoughts, but he could feel Yan's mother's embarrassment.
He simply said: "Since the eldest lady has a guest to see, then I won't bother much, and Mother Yan will just treat me as if I have never come." ”
She wanted to go and see Bai Xianyu, but Bai Xianyu was being pressed to learn the rules in the past two days.
Bai Xianyu has been a little fluttering since she felt that she had a majestic "princess" identity, and the eldest lady has always known this in her heart, but the eldest lady herself can't bear to blame Bai Xianyu, and she doesn't want to have any suspicions with her daughter in the little time left, so she simply got rid of others and found a very powerful teaching mother for Bai Xianyu.
And this mother Si, who is responsible for teaching Bai Xianyu, is not only powerful, but also an extremely responsible person, while managing Bai Xianyu, she will always subconsciously control all the people around Bai Xianyu, Si's mother has only been here for three days, and Jing Wu has been reprimanded twice.
So now, if it is not necessary, Jingwu refuses to "make progress together" with Bai Xianyu.
After Jing Wu finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.
Yan's mother hurriedly held a plate of small snacks in her hand: "Miss Jing, this is a new yam cake made by Chef Dong in the big kitchen, Miss Twelve also likes it very much, you can bring a few pieces back and taste it." ”
Seeing Jing Wu stop at the door of the study, Yan's mother couldn't help but smile, and said in her heart: This Jing Wu is not a tight young lady after all, her eyelids are shallow, and she deliberately slowed down and waited for her to hand her pastries.
Because of the angle, Yan's mother only saw Jing Wu, who was still standing inside the door, and waited for Yan's mother to take a few more steps, and her vision broadened.
His eyes instantly met the eldest lady who was standing in front of Jing Wu.
With a "clang", the plate containing the pastries fell off, and Yan's mother's smile froze on her face at the same time.
Yan's mother was not sure, the conversation between her and Jing Wu, the eldest lady heard a few words.
As soon as his knees weakened, he fell to his knees with a "poof".
Mother Yan lowered her head and said in a trembling voice: "Old slave...... The old slave ......", the period Ai Ai, can't be sentenced.
The eldest lady instantly retracted her gaze, she was going to set off directly to Guiyutang in the front yard, but she happened to hear the movement of talking in the study, so she turned back again.
The eldest lady said to Jing Wu: "Since you are here, let's go together, it's not a big deal, it's not a big deal, just be careful not to talk nonsense." ”
Jing Wuleng for a moment, feeling a little unreasonable, after all, she was neither a descendant of the Bai family nor a descendant of the Bai family, and the eldest lady had no reason to take her when she saw a guest. And according to Yan's mother's previous statement, the eldest lady didn't plan to let her accompany the guests at least last night, but why did she suddenly change her mind now?
Jing Wu hadn't thought of a reason for refusal, but the eldest lady had already turned around and left, ignoring Yan's mother, who was still kneeling on the ground.
Jing Wu could only follow resignedly, but he was thinking about how to refuse the eldest lady along the way.
Out of Zhining Courtyard, all the way to the Guiyu Hall in the front yard.
Jing Wu was still thinking about how to speak to the eldest lady, but the eldest lady seemed to have already seen through her thoughts.
"I asked you to go together, and you went, what did you do at a young age."
Even if Jing Wu didn't want to go, he couldn't refuse.
…
At this time, the large kitchen in the front yard is in full swing.
Although the breakfast point has just passed, the kitchen is like this, it starts to get busy before dawn, and it will not be quiet until midnight, but after a while, a new round of busyness will begin.
Repeat the cycle, an infinite loop.
"Chef Dong, I've already dealt with the duck you wanted, do you think I'll help you hang it with bone broth first?"
An extremely honest-looking cook came to Dong Xiaoan's side and said a little flatteringly.
Dong Xiaoan took the duck in the cook's hand, carefully examined it, and finally nodded.
The assistant chef, who was still a little apprehensive, instantly happily seemed to have been promoted to chef, and while taking the duck again with some hands, he nodded his head again and again.
"Thank you, thank you Chef Dong for cultivating."
Then he happily carried the duck soup and went away.
The other chefs and assistants in the big kitchen all showed disdain.
Because of the designation of Zhining Courtyard and the amazing pastry craftsmanship, Dong Xiaoan became the first echelon in the big kitchen in a short period of time.
This will naturally affect the interests of other people, and other chefs have also thought about suppressing Dong Xiaoan, but they can only sigh if their skills are not as good as others.
What's more, there are people like the sixth young master, who always come to the big kitchen every now and then to "fight the autumn breeze", if they see them bullying Dong Xiaoan, I am afraid that they will have to stage a fight.
The duck who helped the cook had just entered the pot, and Bai Jiyuan had already swaggered into the big kitchen.
There is no concept of a gentleman cooking.
"Dong Xiaoan, hurry up and give Young Master Ben a bowl of noodles, you can do anything, Young Master Ben will starve to death."
After seeing Dong Xiaoan nodding.
Bai Jiyuan found a place he thought was suitable to sit down, looked at Dong Xiaoan with a blank eye, and waited for him to eat.
Ever since he had eaten Dong Xiaoan's dishes in Zhining Courtyard, Bai Jiyuan felt that what he ate on weekdays was to fool himself in the big kitchen, but he was embarrassed to follow his "young" sister and designate a chef for meals.
So Bai Jiyuan could only think of it, so he came to the big kitchen to find Dong Xiaoan to make some, which means that he was still growing his body and was prone to hunger.
"Gollum ......"
The intertwined breath of various foods accelerated the process of Bai Jiyuan's hunger.
Today, Dong Xiaoan is a little slow, why didn't he even prepare the noodles in advance?
