Mama Zheng, who was in charge of the big kitchen, hummed a little song and returned to her room, and was stunned to see a beautiful maid sitting at the table, looking at her coldly, and she knew the identity of the other party after a closer look.

"Oh, isn't this the Yuetan girl from Qingcang Courtyard, a rare guest." Mama Zheng smiled and stepped forward to say hello.

Yue Tan played with a teacup in her hand and said lightly: "Mama Zheng is polite." ”

Mama Zheng stepped forward and asked, "Why is Miss Yuetan free to come over, but what does the third young master command?" ”

Yue Tan sat upright, her voice was very soft, and there was a playfulness in her eyes when she looked at her: "I didn't have an order, I came here today because I had something to ask Mama, why is the third young master's recent diet all tofu and vegetables, and if it is a piece of meat, it will be shredded and minced?" ”

"Really?" Mama Zheng looked puzzled, and then said: "It may be that the big kitchen knows that the third young master has a weak spleen and stomach, so he made more dishes to nourish the stomach, isn't this for the sake of the third young master's body?" ”

"A good thing?" Yuetan stood up and scolded: "Mama Zheng is really eloquent, she should really be dragged out to play twenty boards, so that Mama knows what it is good to know." ”

Mama Zheng raised her head and looked serious: "Did I make any mistakes?" Miss Yuetan, I'm all doing this for the good stomach of the third young master, could it be that there is some reason to delay your errand, so you came to me to play prestige! ”

Playing majestic? Yue Tan sneered, took out a thin bamboo wire from the large sea bowl in the food box, and turned it left and right in front of Mama Zheng's eyes.

Mama Zheng took a look, this bamboo silk is on the pot brush! She felt cold in her vest and knelt on the ground with a "poof".

Yue Tan looked at her, and her voice was a little puzzled: "Mama Zheng, as the manager of the big kitchen, you are dedicated to the stomach of the third young master, so why don't you even know that this pickled thing has entered the young master's dish?" ”

"Slaves and maids should die, it is slaves and maids, and slaves and maids are not well supervised." Mama Zheng kowtowed a few times in a row, and lamented in her heart, she really shouldn't have obeyed the orders of the second wife, deducted the third young master's food, and got into trouble if she didn't eat the fish.

"Unfavorable regulation?" Yuetan walked to the window with her hands behind her back, "Mama Zheng is really neat and clean." ”

After lunch, after Li Jingming ate two bites of red braised mutton, he suddenly remembered the news he heard when he returned home, and asked Yuetan: "I heard that you went to the big kitchen and beat Mama Zheng?" ”

Yue Tan replied with a smile: "The slave maid originally wanted to wait for you to finish your meal before reporting it. ”

Li Jingming took a bite of mutton, "That person is not honest, and he will beat him, but your tricks to frame people are a little stupid, the big kitchen dares to withhold food, but you don't dare to mix miscellaneous things into the dishes, you are clearly wronging others." ”

"This trick is a bit stupid, but the slave maid just wants to return the other way, so that the people in the big kitchen always remember that if they can use errands to harm people, someone can use errands to harm her."

"Well, you're right." Li Jingming nodded clearly, "That Mama Zheng used to be the eldest lady's dowry maid, and later married the housekeeper, so it can't be taken lightly, and now it's okay, everyone knows what it's for." ”

Yue Tan was praised for the first time, the corners of her mouth just rose, and she was blocked back by Li Jingming's faint smile: "Well, it's smarter than those few, those few will only come to me to complain, but you know that you want to find a way to solve the problem." ”

When Yue Tan heard this, she suddenly felt that this was not a compliment, so she couldn't help it, and blocked the words back: "If the slave and maid can't even clean up these little miscellaneous fish, isn't it in vain that the young master praises?" ”

When Li Jingming heard this, he didn't know what to say, and just wanted to point his finger at her, but found that he still had a piece of meat and bone in his hand, so he had to laugh and give up.

……

In the Markham Courtyard, the old lady finished eating the last bite of red braised mutton, raised her hands, and calmly waited for the maids to come forward to serve her to freshen up, and then waited for the return of Mama Wu, who was in charge of the courtyard, and heard Yuetan's operation in the big kitchen, and suddenly laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist.

Mama Wu pondered for a while, and still asked, "Old lady, this Yuetan is just a little maid, why do you value it so much?" In the past day, I have never seen you open your eyes to look at these little girls, could it be that there are other reasons here? ”

The old lady Wu glared at her, "You old man can pretend to be stupid, if that girl wasn't the niece of the fox spirit, would I attach so much importance to her?" ”

The fox spirit surnamed Yue made her two sons incompatible, and she finally killed someone, who knew that there was another niece, even if she was not biological, who was better than whom?

"Then why didn't the old lady find a reason to sell her directly? Don't be afraid every day. ”

"Don't I understand what you're saying? It's just that the girl has some skills, you look at the mother-in-law surnamed Qin in Qingcang Courtyard, with withered grass-like hair, but after eating the medicinal food she made for half a month, her hair is black and shiny. It's a pity to sell it directly, and that little thing in Qingcang Yuan may not be willing to give up such a beauty. ”
