Chapter 47: Doing things in the dining room.
However, in this palace, there has always been no shortage of active people, and when they encounter this matter, they can also arrange it in an orderly manner, and the eunuch in charge saw Mama Ping who was following Shumulugege, and his face was full of smiles.
Come on, this one is allowed by the Queen Mother, so they have to serve well.
"Gege, come here, the minions will arrange a few miscellaneous workers to help you......"
"No need, just call a fire-burner." Qi Yu felt that he and the Queen Mother should promise to do it with their own hands, so they had to do it themselves, and it was nothing to find someone to help.
The eunuch in charge has a toothache, and there is no one to guide him, what if Shu Muluge burns down the imperial dining room.
Especially thinking of a few years ago, Shu Muluge had to make a storm wherever he went, and the eunuch in charge was very flustered.
It's just that there is no way to panic, so I found a clever palace maid and sent it to Qi Yu.
"Gege, the minion is just outside the door, if there is anything, call it a minion." When the eunuch in charge spoke, he had already asked people to carry water.
This water must be prepared. In case the imperial dining room catches fire and the meals in the East and West Six Palaces are delayed, he, the eunuch in charge, will be fully responsible. If you don't pay attention, your head will fall off.
Qi Yu walked to a separate room.
The vegetables, meat, seafood and condiments are all complete, and in such a short period of time, such a comprehensive small kitchen can be made, this steward eunuch is a capable person.
Qi Yu had the intention to let people go, and he also glanced at the eunuch in charge twice.
No, you can see the problem at a glance, no matter which palace wants to eat something good, it will give this one a little benefit, and after a while, the young eunuch's sleeve will become heavy.
From this point of view, the steward eunuch in the dining room in the palace, I am afraid that the oil and water are higher than the fourth master's Yulu, and he can't leave.
Qi Yu was a little lost. But this is not the time to be lost, the Queen Mother's meal is more important, so she has to get it out quickly.
If you don't have an appetite, you have to make something appetizing, and at the same time you have to look good, if you don't look good and smell bad, who wants to eat it?
Hawthorn cake is indispensable. It is suitable for all ages, and it just so happens that Qi Yu can also do it, which saves a lot of trouble.
Hawthorn cake is simple to make, but it needs some details to make it look good.
For example, when boiling, it is too thick, there will be bubbles in it, the crystalline degree is reduced, it is not good-looking, and it must be shaken evenly when passing through the sieve, etc.
Meat and vegetables have to be matched, and when it comes to appetizing vegetarian dishes, vinegared cabbage is indispensable.
There are chili peppers in the palace, but few people use them, and a few pots are placed in pots as flowers. When Qi Yu entered the palace, he dragged two.
It can be used at this time, after all, vinegared cabbage without chili peppers is a heretical cult and will be burned by fire.
The eunuch in charge saw Qi Yu take out the chili pepper, and leaned over to remind: "Gege, this thing is eaten by the untouchables who pull fiber and dig ditches in the south, you can bring it over and give it to the Queen Mother......
"I made the meal, and I will accompany the Queen Mother to eat at that time, I don't dislike this thing for being bright, you have a lot to do."
Qi Yu raised his chin as he spoke, perfectly explaining what it means to look at people with his nostrils, Xu is the simplest and easiest to master in acting, and Qi Yu didn't show any flaws.
All the people who were waiting in the dining room didn't see that Qi Yu was performing, and they felt that this was Shu Mulugege's nature, and they served more carefully.
Qi Yu chopped the fresh chili pepper a few times, and put it into the oil pan with the garlic slices and green onion segments to stir-fry, and at this moment, the choking and spicy smell of the chili pepper permeated the imperial dining room.
Several people who hadn't smelled it before started sneezing.
The imperial dining room was in chaos in an instant.
Mama Ping, I don't want to smoke here, so after looking at it for a while, I went to Cining Palace to tell the Queen Mother a joke.
The eunuch sneezed a few times and glared at Qi Yu a few times. Walking to the big dining room again, he couldn't panic at this time, he had already known that there would be an accident where there was Shumulugege, and he was still taking precautions in advance.
But the prevention is fire, not choking.
With a sigh, the steward and eunuch got busy again, preventing the people in the dining room from sneezing and polluting the dishes, so he asked everyone to take out handkerchiefs and tie them around their mouths and noses, which could be regarded as solving the problem.
Qi Yu fried the cabbage and made a pineapple courd, without using tomatoes to make tomato sauce, Qi Yu didn't dare to use tomatoes to cook casually.
After all, this thing has a criminal record, and he has eaten people to death, and if he really brought the tomatoes, he had the intention of murder. If you don't have tomato sauce, you can make a living with other sauces, and anyway, this goo meat tastes sweet and sour.
I still wanted to do something, and when I looked up, I saw the dark face of the steward eunuch.
Qi Yu sneered: "That's it." "It's not much, but it's enough to eat.
Placed in the food box, Qi Yu carried it by himself and didn't let others help, and walked directly to Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother was listening to Mama Ping talk about what happened in the dining room at this time, and she laughed when she heard Qi Yu actually make the people in the dining room sneeze.
"This little monkey, sure enough, can do something no matter where he goes."
"No, Steward Zhao over there in the dining room is red-eyed."
When Mama Ping smelled the spicy smell, she ran back from the imperial dining room and told the Queen Mother what she had seen as a joke.
The Queen Mother was happy enough, and her face suddenly straightened: "This girl, she can't live in peace for a while, she will make trouble, and when she comes back in a while, she has to teach her a good lesson, otherwise she will always cause trouble for others, in case of trouble one day......"
"Queen Mother, the slave didn't cause trouble." Hearing the Queen Mother say this, Qi Yu stopped pretending to be dumb anymore, and hurriedly walked in from outside the hall.
Put the dishes in the food box on the table: "Queen Mother, this is made by the slave himself, you can taste it." ”
Mama Ping also has eyesight, otherwise she would not have served in front of the Queen Mother, and she would have served for decades. Seeing Qi Yugege set up the meal, he helped the Queen Mother to the small table.
The Queen Mother glanced at the dishes on the plate, not to mention that they really looked a little good.
The eunuch who tried the dish tasted it first, and his face instantly became strange.
The Queen Mother didn't dare to take chopsticks at this time, there was no way, Qi Yu took the chopsticks and ate a little bit, and the Queen Mother pinched the chopsticks for the face, she really didn't want to eat at this time, but these were made by the little monkey of Shu Mulu's family.
I still have to eat it, so I took a bite of hawthorn cake. The taste is also good, there is a gap with the chef, if it is better than the imperial chef's cooking, those chefs can return to their hometowns.
But what? It's also a unique flavor.
"Queen Mother, you try this cabbage, don't look at it doesn't look good, but the taste guarantees that you haven't tasted it." After Qi Yu finished speaking, the Queen Mother looked at the eunuch who was trying the dishes.
The little eunuch covered his mouth and didn't want to speak, just now he ate a small piece of chili, the taste of this thing can't be described in words, and if he didn't cough on the spot, he was already strong.
