Chapter 1349: General, I'll Help You Feed Your Family (45)
Although Wang Baochuan is over fifteen years old, because she is the youngest daughter in the family, her father and eldest sister are very spoiled, so she is not as rigid and well-behaved as the average lady, but her personality is very lively.
My sister-in-law's birthday is on my sister-in-law's birthday, Wang Baochuan will naturally receive an invitation to live in Taishi's Mansion, and a group of young ladies and ladies will get together for a long time without incident, just drinking tea, eating snacks, playing the piano and embroidering. This time, the dim sum that the Taishi Mansion took out to entertain the guests was really new and coincidental, and everyone asked where the good chefs in the Taishi Mansion had hired from there.
Speaking of cooks, several young grandmothers in Taishi's Mansion have gossip, after all, it is really uncommon for cooks to write a good hand, which is enough for these idle and boring ladies to make up for their brains. About gossip is really a human need, and without Qian Qian's knowledge, she, a cook who can write a good hand, has been made up by the young ladies with countless backgrounds and experiences.
Wang Baochuan is very curious about the cook in her brother-in-law's family, not only because she can write a good handwriting, but more importantly, the cook's skills are really good, and the few fine points served are not only novel in style, but also extremely suitable for her appetite.
Because of these snacks, Wang Baochuan, who wanted something on weekdays, was worried about Qian Qian at that time, and immediately proposed to his sister that he wanted this cook to go to their prime minister's mansion to do things. In these years, the servant is almost the same as property in the eyes of the master's family, and it is true that she can be transferred at will, but the money is different, she is not a servant of the Taishi Mansion who was sold as a slave, but a civilian cook temporarily hired outside, not the property of the Taishi Mansion, even if she is the young grandmother of the Taishi Mansion, she has no right to decide where she goes.
"It's not that my sister won't agree to you," Wang Jinchuan, the eldest lady of the Taishi Mansion, smiled helplessly at her little sister: "This cook is hired from outside, and she is only willing to take odd jobs, and the old lady in our house wants her to enter the house to do things, she refuses, only says when the house needs her to serve, and directly let the grandmothers on the corner door inform her." Moreover, even if the cook is from our house, you are afraid that you will not be able to take it away. Our old lady also liked her craftsmanship and was reluctant to let her go. ”
"Refuse to sign a long-term deed to work in the house?" Wang Baochuan was slightly surprised: "This cook has high ambitions, and she even refuses to enter the Taishi Mansion?" ”
"If you don't want to, forget it, it's just a cook, it's not a big deal." Wang Jinchuan shook his head with a smile: "We are not the unreasonable and domineering people in our house, can we still force people to sell themselves?" ”
"Sister, shall we call the cook to take a look?" Wang Baochuan tugged on his sister's sleeve and shook it lightly: "A cook can write a good hand, and she won't be vulgar and vulgar like an ordinary person, let's call her to take a look, okay?" ”
"You're curious." Wang Jinchuan stretched out his hand and lightly tapped the tip of his sister's nose: "There are many people who are literate in reading, don't you know a few words in that little girl?" What's so strange. ”
"Sister~" Wang Baochuan pouted at Wang Jinchuan: "Anyway, it's boring to be idle, just a cook, why can't I see it?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Third Miss, who do you want to see, you can naturally see it, where do I dare to stop it. Wang Jinchuan smiled and beckoned a little maid to go to the kitchen to spread the word and ask Qian Qian to come to her yard.
Not to mention that Wang Baochuan was full of curiosity about Qian Qian, Qian Qian was also full of curiosity when he saw Wang Baochuan for the first time. This woman who has been guarding the cold kiln for 18 years in many dramas and texts has to be stubborn and persistent to survive in poverty year after year, waiting for her husband who has not heard from her and has not returned.
Entering the courtyard of the young grandmother Wang Jinchuan, Qian Qianqian saluted Wang Jinchuan and Wang Baochuan in a regular manner, and the etiquette rules were good, but it made the Wang Jinchuan sisters look at it again.
"I heard the kitchen steward say your surname is Yao?" After looking at Qian Qian for a while, it was Wang Jinchuan who opened his mouth first: "The rules are excellent." ”
"Yes!" Qian Qian raised his eyes with a smile, took the opportunity to sneak a few glances at Wang Baochuan who was sitting on the side, and replied in a proper manner: "Yao Jiuniang, a slave, has seen the young lady and the young lady. ”
Pretty! This is Qian Qian's first impression of Wang Baochuan. Wang Baochuan is indeed a very good-looking girl, it seems that the Wang family has good genes, and even the eldest sister of the Wang family, Wang Jinchuan, who is sitting on the side, is also a beauty.
Wang Baochuan is not the same as her dignified and demure eldest sister, with two long eyebrows slightly raised, big apricot eyes, a slightly long goose egg face, ruddy cheeks, and slightly upturned rouge-dyed lips, she is a bright-looking girl.
When Qian Qian was looking at Wang Baochuan, Wang Baochuan was also looking at the cook in front of him with a little curiosity. It doesn't look special, the person is very thin and young, but he has a neat woman's bun, and he looks like he is married.
Wang Baochuan wanted to meet Qian Qian, mainly to satisfy her curiosity, and by the way, she asked her if she would like to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to do things. It's not unusual for the two sisters to ask Qian Qian's question, it's similar to what Mama Liu inquired about before, Zuo is just where he is from, where he came from, how he came here to be a cook, and who learned a word from him.
Qian Qian answered them one by one, anyway, there is nothing to hide, it's just an abandoned woman who was divorced, what's the big deal. After listening to Qian Qian's experience, the pampered queen Bao Chuan showed a little sympathy on her face: "Your husband's family is too unseemly, and he actually does things like this." ”
Qian Qian had a good impression of this enthusiastic young lady, smiled at her, and replied: "Zhuang family, it costs rice to feed one more person, the grandson is gone, and the granddaughter-in-law is naturally useless." ”
"You are a woman, how much rice can you cost?" Wang Baochuan raised his eyebrows and looked indignant: "Can you still eat poor?" ”
Qian Qianxiao didn't speak, the young lady of the big family naturally didn't understand the farmer's thoughts, and this can also be understood, the farmer's family can't buy her a snow-embroidered handkerchief for a year.
"Stupid again!" Although Wang Jinchuan, who has married and started to manage his own small yard, is not the housekeeper and grandmother of the Taishi Mansion, he is not as ignorant as his sister. She stretched out her slender jade finger and gently poked her sister's forehead: "Where are the Zhuang families like you, the cost of a snack is enough for people to eat food for two or three months." ”
Wang Baochuan rubbed his forehead, grinned at his sister, looked completely indifferent, turned his head and continued to ask Qian Qian: "Yao Niangzi, now that you are alone, I am afraid that your livelihood is also difficult, I heard my sister say that you are not willing to sign a long deed to enter the Taishi Mansion as a cook, why is this?" Is Taishifu bad? Then would you like me to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to do something? ”
