Chapter 14 Asking is Asking Nothing
Steward Zhao didn't want to mention anything that would remind Qiao Jinyu of those bad memories, so he condensed his heart and said, "Madame, she is not a picky eater, she basically eats everything." If you really want to say anything you particularly like, it should be chopped pepper fish head and mapo tofu. ”
Chopped pepper fish head and mapo tofu? No wonder Yan was so excited yesterday.
Secretly noting Yan's preferences, Qiao Jinyu asked quietly, "What about the general?" Does the general have any favorite dishes? ”
Steward Zhao's eyebrows were lightly condensed, as if he had encountered some problem.
"General...... That's what really made me ask. ”
"In the past, the general's taste was similar to that of his wife. But in recent years, the general has stayed in the Northland all the year round, and spent most of his time in the barracks, eating and living with the soldiers in the Northland, which is ...... It's hard to say. ”
"I don't think he likes anything, and he doesn't seem to care about what's in his mouth. In the future, when you cook, you should follow your lady's preferences and tastes, and think about what the general likes. ”
This...... Doesn't asking mean not asking?
It is said that if you want to subdue a man's heart, you must first subdue a man's stomach.
She didn't know what Zhao Kuo liked to eat, and how could she subdue his stomach and heart?
Anyway, she took it as a challenge.
Since Zhao Kuo doesn't like it now, from now on, she will let Zhao Kuo only like the dishes she makes alone!
After breakfast, Steward Zhao took out the deed prepared last night.
Qiao Jinyu looked at it carefully, and the terms were displayed quite clearly.
She only has to be in charge of lunch and dinner, as for breakfast, she will do it if she is in the mood, and if she is not in the mood, Steward Zhao will be in charge, if there are guests visiting the house on weekdays, the banquet will have to be handled by her.
As for vacations, there are usually no holidays, but if she wants to go home to visit relatives during the New Year's holidays, she can ask Yan for leave, and her salary will not be deducted.
And her monthly salary is one or two pieces of silver!
When Qiao Jinyu saw this number, her jaw almost dropped.
A tael of silver!
Her family farms all year round, in addition to the field rent and daily expenses, at the end of the year, there may not be a deposit of three taels of silver, this money is simply a huge amount of money!
After checking the deed, she did not hesitate to pick up the brush and sign her own name, and she was afraid that Steward Zhao would regret it if she was late.
After she signed her name, Steward Zhao picked up the deed and looked at it, and couldn't help but be amazed in his heart.
How beautiful is the handwriting? It looks like it's written by everyone's girlfriends.
Steward Zhao was still in a hurry to go to the yamen for the record, so he didn't chat with her and left in a hurry.
She looked at the ingredients that Xiao Si bought, and decided to make a plate of stomping fish heads, then hob eggplant, boiled okra and spicy fried lotus root slices, and finally a chestnut stewed chicken soup.
There are chickens and fish, meat and vegetarians, sour and spicy rice, perfect!
The chicken soup needs to be simmered for two hours to fully release its deliciousness, so she slaughtered the chicken first, plucked the feathers in a slippery manner, and then disemboweled, washed the internal organs, and stewed in the pot.
Half an hour later, the thick smell of chicken soup wafted over the General's Mansion, and Yan, who was changing the size of his son's clothes in the room, couldn't help but snort a few times hard, with a greedy expression.
It smells so good!
Her future daughter-in-law's cooking skills are really good!
She has to hurry, otherwise this future daughter-in-law is likely to become someone else's daughter-in-law!
After quickly sewing the last few stitches, Yan collected the needle and thread, and came to Zhao Kuo's residence with his clothes.
Seeing that Zhao Kuo was reading the book of war, indifferent to the smell of chicken soup in the air, she walked over and stuffed her clothes into his arms.
