Chapter 157: The Life of a Cook
After Qingzhi 'met' with the future employees, Yu Niangzi said, "The monthly silver in your dim sum kitchen is sent over on the 6th, and the accounts are well kept, and the more refunded and the less ......" After a few words, seeing that Qingzhi looked pure and gratifying, she couldn't help but add: "Don't worry, our lord is very lenient to his subordinates." ”
Qingzhi originally thought that everyone would be colleagues in the future, and wanted to say a few words of greeting to get closer, but seeing that Yu Niangzi looked businesslike and very efficient, it was difficult to speak, so she only smiled and said: "Thank you Yu Niangzi, I am a newcomer, and you will need to take care of everything in the future." ”
Yu Niangzi nodded, said that there was something else in the big kitchen, and turned to leave.
Qingzhi turned around, and saw that the four or five rough kitchen girls were still standing with their heads bowed and their hands down, and asked first, "Who is in charge of buying raw materials on weekdays?" ”
A sturdy and tall girl replied, "Miss Huisong, it's me." ”
"What's your name?"
"Ye Siniang."
"Okay, Ye Siniang, do you know the dairy shop of the Kang family in Dongdai Temple, right? Miss buys the toffee. ”
"I know."
"Very good, I'll write a list, and you will buy the materials according to it in the future."
Ye Siniang was a little surprised: "Don't you have to go today?" ”
"I don't need it today or tomorrow, I'll make the oven first."
The girls looked at each other and didn't ask what the oven was.
"Who is responsible for the inventory of materials?"
Ye Siniang raised her head: "It's me too." ”
"Okay, you show me what's in the dim sum kitchen."
Ye Siniang took Qingzhi and looked around.
Tut-tut, the dim sum kitchen of the rich family, the things are more complete than the store of Xiyun!
Qingzhi looked carefully at the white sugar in the jar and said strangely: "Isn't it purple?" Li Fang said that the best rock candy in his sugar mill is purple.
Ye Siniang was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Miss Song, the best sugar powder produced in Da Zhou is indeed purple, but this is the snowflake sugar powder from the Great Food Country, which is as white as snow. ”
Well, imports, imported from countries where there is syrup decolorization and removal of impurities, great.
Qingzhi nodded, wrote down a list of things needed for the oven and handed it to Ye Siniang, and told her the address of the blacksmith and asked her to make cake molds. ”
Huh? Fenghua kiln? It seems to be a place where you specialize in firing very valuable porcelain.
Aoeda was about to say, 'Just go and dig a little bit by the river and come back, don't waste that money,' when he remembered that he was now working in a rich family, he forcibly suppressed this sentence and only nodded very coolly.
Ye Siniang saluted, turned around and hurriedly purchased.
The rest of the rough girls are still busy according to the daily routine, some are soaking nuts to remove bitter skins, some are patiently boiling sauces, and some are making beautiful animals and flowers out of dough.
No one came to talk to the boss who had landed in the air.
Qingzhi had nothing to do in the kitchen, so she went back to her room by herself as they were busy.
She went back and tried to read the oven guide a few more times, and there were plenty of people and money to try a variety of different pastries.
On the third day, the oven was dried, the molds came, and the milk, cream, and butter were all the freshest that the Kang family had bought, and Qingzhi immediately began to make cakes.
After staying for the past three days, Qingzhi felt that this place was a little unusual, too unusual!
Most of the servants are women, but they never make small talk!
Qingzhi felt at the beginning that this management was too strict, right? Then I found that there is no management system here at all, everyone is very conscientious and automatically do their own thing, the master little fairy basically does not appear, and according to a few girls reminded, Qingzhi only knows that if you see the little fairy, you need to avoid it in time, and it is best not to be discovered by her.
This really hurts my self-esteem, is it because I am afraid that we mortals will stain the eyes of the little fairy?
Fortunately, several kinds of cakes baked every day will get feedback from the big kitchen in time, and the feedback is very good, and Qingzhi has slowly grasped the eating habits of some little fairies, and her favorite these days is the shell-shaped madeleine cake, paired with the tribute black tea shipped from Lingnan.
Because it only needs to be a cake for one person, and there are four or five people to do it, Qingzhi is very idle every day, often walking around the house, and the scenery is so good that I can't help but not go shopping.
Anyway, no one told her that she couldn't walk around, and if she saw the little fairy, just avoid it from afar.
On this day, she stood on a small bamboo bridge, looking at the falling flowers spread on the stream, and couldn't help sighing, the scenery of the place where the little fairy lives is too good! It's really like a wonderland!
"Where are you? So unruly! The big lama stood on the bridge, and he didn't salute when he saw the young lady coming? ”
Well? Oops! Forget that servants don't have many human rights!
Qingzhi hurriedly bowed his head in the direction where the voice came from.
"Oh! It's a cake girl! The owner of the voice chuckled, "They didn't tell you our rules here?" ”
It was Fluttershy's voice, and Aoeda looked up, she seemed to be wearing gold and silver today, and the wrists on her head and wrists seemed to be pearl jewelry, which was beautiful, but unfortunately, people couldn't see her.
Because the little fairy stood behind her, and the brilliance of her body eclipsed everything around her.
Qingzhi was a little dizzy by her beauty.
The little fairy looked at her with a smile and a gentle look in her eyes: "What's your name?" ”
Qingzhi's contract was signed by the person in the accounting room, and the little fairy probably didn't remember to ask what the name was.
"My name is Song Qingzhi."
"Well, the little shell cake you made is delicious."
"The girl has won the prize." After Qingzhi finished speaking, he hurriedly retreated from the bamboo bridge so that the little fairy maid could pass by.
When Shen Mengxin passed by Song Qingzhi, she noticed that this cook was not hiding from her like other servants, so she suddenly realized and smiled, "Fluttershy and I are going to feed the fish, you can go with us." ”
You're the biggest boss here, and you're in charge.
Qingzhi immediately followed them.
She just came in, she didn't know that the Zhou State was very strict, and she was also relaxed in front of Shen Mengxin, but fortunately Shen Mengxin was generous and simple by nature and didn't mind, Fluttershy was still young and innocent, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
The three of them feed the fish together, Fluttershy is a little unwell and goes to the hut, and Qingzhi accompanies Shen Mengxin in the pavilion to sit and watch the fish, mandarin ducks, and water ducks.
Someone came over, Qingzhi turned around, and saw that it was a girl in the porter, who sometimes came to the dim sum kitchen to ask for some steamed cakes, and when the girl saw Shen Mengxin, she immediately lowered her head and turned around and walked away.
It seems that there is indeed such a rule.
A low sigh suddenly sounded in his ears, and his voice was tactful and charming, which was particularly good.
Qingzhi turned his head and saw Shen Mengxin sighing at a flock of frolicking birds among the willow trees, with a lonely look on his face.
Such a beautiful girl, how can she be lonely!
Aoeda immediately asked, "What's wrong with you?" What's upset about you? ”
