There is a bookshelf in the bedroom, Xiangru sorted out her things and went over to look at it curiously, found a book to sit on the dressing table under the table to read, only to read two pages, a little girl came in, holding a tea tray in her hand, on the tea tray was placed yesterday's doctor's prescription, please Xiangru according to the recipe for the young master to arrange a diet.

Xiangru thanked her, took the recipe but was not in a hurry to look at it, but first asked the girl about the young master's eating habits and if she had any preferences.

As a result, the little girl talked a lot like pouring bitter water, and the more Xiangru listened, the more black lines on the 'door' of her brain.

If this girl is not exaggerating, then this young master Shu's picky eater is even sharper than the six princesses in the palace.

Don't eat 'meat' with a smell, pig and cow 'meat', only eat the most tender tenderloin 'meat', don't eat anything else, eat freshwater fish only eat fish maw, don't eat other fish balls, fish shreds, processed products, love shrimp and shellfish, don't eat all feathered animals, don't eat all internal organs, go into the water, etc., only eat pigeon eggs, don't eat other eggs, extremely dislike all kinds of radish, eat a small amount of leafy vegetables and vegetables and fruits, only eat one kind of white umbrella mushroom, don't eat anything else, soup depends on the mood at the time, seafood and dried goods are fishy, and onions, ginger, garlic and other things are resolutely not allowed to cook but can only be done. Medicinal use, liking novelty snacks, food that has been eaten once can not be served on the table again until at least 10 days apart, daily diet must not be repeated, etc.

This picky eater, there are few things to eat.

"Is it particularly difficult for the kitchen in the house to prepare food for the little master every day? It's hard for your cook. ”

"Mrs. He, after looking at all the princes and nobles in the capital, the chefs in our house are the fastest, and the longest one has not been working for half a year, and the one who has been dug from the drunken building with decades of experience is still a chef with decades of experience." The little girl was very helpless.

"What about the cooks you use now?"

"There are several cooks in the kitchen, and even if one is driven away, there are still people on top, and the chief housekeeper uses this spare time to dig up cooks from outside to fill the staff."

Xiangru was quite speechless, daring to be a cook in Shuhou Mansion is a high-risk and high-risk job, God knows when Young Master Shu is unhappy and the chef in the mansion will be unemployed.

Xiangru thanked the little girl, the other party bowed and retreated, Xiangru sat down to study the medical prescription, and saw how to arrange the sick meal of Young Master Shu in the next few days.

Xiangru has been sitting in front of the dressing table, but she hasn't been able to come up with a complete plan until lunch is delivered, this little master doesn't eat too much, and no matter how experienced a chef is, it is difficult to cook a different diet every day with limited ingredients.

The little girl laid out the food and left, Xiangru sat down to eat with a sad face, only tasted a mouthful of food, Xiangru couldn't stop the chopsticks, in the end it was a cook hired with a lot of money, the food was so delicious that people wanted to swallow their tongues, the little master was still disgusted, it was really a pampered child.

Xiangru almost gobbled up the lunch, after eating, put away the tableware and put it in the tea tray and put it on the table in the outer room, the girl on duty outside the 'door' heard the movement inside, and immediately brought water in to serve Xiangru to purify the water and rinse her mouth.

Xiangru enjoyed the treatment of a young lady beautifully, and by the way, she told the little girl to call her when the kitchen began to prepare snacks.

The girls nodded yes, packed up their things and went down.

Xiangru returned to the inner room to sit and read the book for a while, gradually sleepiness hit, threw down the book and took off her coat and poured it on the 'bed', the big 'bed' made of high-grade wood made Xiangru let out a comfortable sigh, rolled on the 'bed' a few times, pulled over the thin quilt and put a corner on her body, picked up the fan placed next to the pillow, and found a comfortable position to lie down and close her eyes and fall asleep.

After a comfortable nap, no one came to call herself, Xiangru couldn't bear to stay in the house anymore, so she took a fan and walked out of the room to the outside, leaning on the verandah and sitting on the bench to feel the coolness of the pond.

The courtyard is quiet, no one 'touches' the fish and chats, at a glance, there is no shortage of people in each position, and no one walks around, as if the only idler is Xiangru herself.

I don't know how long it will take to sit down, Xiangru is looking at the fish and looking at it interestingly, a little girl hurriedly walked in the courtyard, she came to Xiangru and bowed down and invited her to the kitchen.

Xiangru put down the fan and got up to go out with the girl.

The girl took Xiangru out of the main house and went to the east, and after a month, there was a small kitchen where the "door" served the four masters, and the fresh hot meals were served to the table in time.

The girl who led the way said that it was a small kitchen, and Xiangru then stepped into the courtyard to know where there was a little bit of the word "small", covering an area similar to the kitchen of the 'female' medical hall, and the same kitchen layout as the palace is also the separation of the main meal and the dim sum, the main meal has a kitchen for the main meal, and the kitchen for dim sum snacks, such a good kitchen only cooks meals for four people, which is really luxurious.

Xiangru was led into the dim sum kitchen, and the dim sum chefs in it were already busy, and when they saw Xiangru coming in, everyone stopped what they were doing and saluted her, and Xiangru also returned the salute safely.

Xiangru walked into the kitchen and stood in the corner, not talking or doing anything, she just watched what the cooks were cooking, and wondered if she could take a piece of their ingredients out of them and use them herself.

The cooks are accustomed to doing it, the movements are neat and smooth, and all kinds of sugar cake rolls are formed one by one, and they look good on the table. Looking at it, Xiangru suddenly realized that there seemed to be a cook's method of making bread, because the dough was 'kneaded' to the point that it could be stretched into a film and then placed next to the stove to accelerate fermentation, which is exactly how bread dough is prepared.

Xiangru immediately approached the cook and asked him what he was doing, and why his dough was different from what others made.

The cook was very generous, and only smiled: "It is a recipe from overseas Yi people, the original name is too awkward, we gave it a name bread, because when we first learned to make it, the dough was baked into a big bun." The young master likes to eat a long pillow-like one, and after it is cold, cut it into slices and smear it with jam, the young master likes it the most, but he can't get tired of eating it every day. ”

After listening to the cook's explanation, Xiangru was a little dumbfounded at first, but in a blink of an eye, she became happy again, and various ideas came to her mind.

It's easy to do, it's easy to do with bread, the little master likes jam and bread, so presumably no matter what is in the bread, the little master should be happy to try it?

"Young Master Rui, in addition to bread and jam, how does he like to eat?"

"How do you like to eat? Isn't it just a jam with some 'milk' cheese on top of it? How else can you eat? "The cook was very suspicious.

"Uh, it's nothing, I'm just asking, I wonder if Young Master Rui is interested in changing the way of eating?"

"If the girl has a new idea, you can try it, everyone in the house knows that the young master is a picky eater, and he can't eat enough for the main meal, so he relies on all kinds of dim sum to satisfy his hunger, and he likes fresh dim sum the most, so it doesn't matter if my aunt is bold enough to try it."

"Thanks for the advice. You're busy, I'll prepare the materials first. ”

Xiangru turned around and rolled up her sleeves and went out of the kitchen to wash her hands, and at the same time called a handyman to come over and report the materials she wanted to use to the other party, so that the person could hurry up and prepare.

After washing her hands, Xiangru wiped the water with a handkerchief and stepped into the kitchen with a smug smile, and the ingredients she asked for had been prepared and placed on the table in such a short time.

Little master, such a good big bread is used to eat jam and eat a lot of 'waste' fees, how about a sandwich?

Knowing that Young Master Rui didn't eat 'chicken' eggs, Xiangru still took two 'chicken' eggs and knocked them into eggs, sprinkled them into a handful of diced fire 'legs' and stirred well, put them into the pot together to make egg cakes, and took a few prawns to chop into puree and marinate for a while, divided into three parts and fried into shrimp cakes, and put them on the table with the egg cakes to cool. Then take a few more 'chicken' eggs and a large bowl to make mayonnaise, and then take the green cabbage leaves into a pot of boiling water and blanch them slightly, and then put them in a pot of cold water again, and put them on a plate for later use.

Xiangru is all ready, the dough has not yet fermented, and other sugar cake rolls are steamed and fried on the stove one after another, the stove is warm and steaming, and it will make people sweat like rain after a while, Xiangru gritted her teeth and made a double skin 'milk' with the egg white and cow's 'milk' left over from the sauce. After the kitchen became hotter, I couldn't bear it, Xiangru 'handed over' the cook and waited for the bread to come out and then called her, she turned around and ran outside to the well to fetch water to wash her face, and found a shade to lean on the tree to enjoy the coolness, and waited for the inside to call her.

The gentle breeze of the tree shadow made people tired, Xiangru found a corner around the trunk of the tree, and leaned against the tree with her arms around her back, and she fell asleep again, regardless of the rough bark of the tree, which made her back uncomfortable.

After a good night's sleep, I slept until I was woken up, and when I opened my eyes in a daze, I saw that it was the baker who came out to look for someone. Xiangru hurriedly put on her dress, turned out from behind the tree while answering the call, and met the cook, the other party went in first, and Xiangru went to the well to wash her hands and face before hurrying in.

Xiangru came to the baker's side, and saw that the cook put the fragrant and hot pillow bread and molds into the cold water basin to cool down quickly.

Yes, Xiangru remembered that rich families will have an ice cellar for storing ice and snow in winter and summer to cool off, with the financial resources of the Hou Mansion, I am afraid that the area of the ice cellar will not be small.

"Master, let me ask, is this how the ice cubes in the house are used?"

"This is how the ice cubes are collected and preserved from the outside in winter, and the ice cubes eaten by the host are also frozen in the ice cellar with cold water, and when you want to eat, you take them out and grind them finely with a machine, pour them with cow's milk and juice, and eat a mouthful of ice and cold ice, which is the best way to cool off in summer."

"yes, I've learned again, thank you." Xiangru smiled lightly, retreated to the table and quickly disposed of the pile of things that had been prepared before, the egg cake and shrimp cake were changed into squares, and the cut leftovers were eaten by herself.

Xiangru finished the work, and the bread on the cook's side was finally set, and she took it out of the mold and took it back to the table to slice it.

Xiangru saw the ingredients, took six slices of bread, cut off the four sides of the bread crust, and ate it herself. Then take a slice and put it on the table, use a spoon to spread the mayonnaise and spread the omelet, then spread a layer of mayonnaise and spread the leaves, then spread the sauce and spread the shrimp cake, then spread the sauce and put the bread slices, and finally cut it in half diagonally with a knife, and the shrimp steak sandwich is completed.

In the same way, the other four sandwiches were made and handed to the cook, and the cook was instructed to take some neatly shaped cold water ice cubes, while Xiangru quickly took all kinds of fruits and squeezed assorted juices into a large bowl, and put the ice cubes into a soup cup, and put a piece of the double-skinned 'milk' that she had made earlier into the food box.

At this time, 'Chun' Fen came to the kitchen, stood at the 'door' and asked the young master how the dim sum was prepared, and was shouting that he was hungry.

"The girl came by chance, just in time, what kind of medicine lady made a new snack and juice with bread, take a piece of it for the young master to taste." The bread cook didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly took the food box and came out with Xiangru, and a cook on the side packed another food box and sent it together.

"That's right, Doctor He will go with me to see the young master." 'Chun' Fen's thin eyes always look like a smile, a girl with a very intimate feeling.

Xiangru nodded yes, took the initiative to take the two food boxes and said goodbye, and the cooks left with 'Chun' Fen

Entering the 'Door'
