Chapter 22: Reward

Ruyi followed Xiao Er into the back kitchen, only to see that the back kitchen was also clean and tightly organized. All kitchen utensils are neatly arranged.

A big-shouldered and round-waisted cook followed her, who was assigned by the shopkeeper to learn chestnut roast chicken.

The cook's surname is Liu, and he is the chef of the Windward Building, and he is very unhappy because he was assigned by the shopkeeper Zhang to learn to cook with a female doll as small as Ruyi.

Ruyi guessed the reason when he saw his face, and he didn't care. took the half of the chicken handed over by Chef Liu, and the chicken had already been boiled in water and lost blood. Ruyi three times two divided by two chopped well, according to the memory of the previous life, then burn the oil, the peeled chestnuts in the pot, fry until eight ripe, then stew the chicken and then add the chestnuts, and finally stew together for a while, thicken, put in a variety of seasonings, a plate of fragrant chestnut roast chicken is out of the pot.

It only takes more than half an hour to combine the tenderness of the chicken with the sweetness and deliciousness of the chestnut. Looking at the golden chestnut roast chicken in front of him, Ruyi himself was very satisfied, and he didn't cook it for a long time, but his cooking skills did not regress.

Because of the aroma of chestnut roast chicken, the cook who was preparing lunch in the kitchen and some miscellaneous boys gathered around. Watching a ten-year-old girl make such a delicious meal is embarrassing.

Chef Liu's expression slowly changed from disdain at the beginning to surprise, and finally admired, who would have thought that such a young girl would be no worse than herself in cooking, and the color of this chestnut roast chicken looks more authentic than her own. And it is the first time that Chef Liu has seen such a dish so fine and so many processes.

"Have you learned?" Ruyi turned his head and asked Chef Liu.

"I remember the process, but I don't know if the taste is authentic...... "Chef Liu didn't dare to pack the ticket, he would definitely be able to make this color and taste.

"You come to taste it, taste it, and you will naturally know how to put the seasoning."

"Okay." Chef Liu picked up chopsticks and put a piece of chicken in his mouth.

"How?" The other cooks around him asked.

"It's delicious." Chef Liu didn't know how to describe it, but it was better than any chicken he had ever seen.

Ruyi also put a piece of chicken in his mouth, which is not bad, although it is not as good as what the chef of the restaurant did in his previous life, but it is not bad.

"Let's bring it to the shopkeeper and give it a taste!"

"Okay." Chef Liu walked out of the kitchen with chestnut roast chicken, and washed his hands before going out.

It just so happened that the shopkeeper was waiting for her in the hall, but the plate of chestnut roast chicken didn't know where to go.

"How? Has the shopkeeper ever tasted this dish? I wonder if this taste can still enter the treasurer of the shopkeeper? ”

"After tasting it, it is naturally good, this dish is really good." The shopkeeper stroked his beard, and his eyes smiled into a slit.

"That's good. In this way, it can be regarded as living up to your ardent expectations of the shopkeeper. ”

"You little girl, this mouth is too good at talking, I, Zhang, have traveled north and south over the years, and I have dealt with many people, not to mention children, even adults are not as capable and able to speak as you." The shopkeeper praised him.

"The shopkeeper is too rewarded, and I am just for my livelihood and exchange some money to support my family."

Shopkeeper Zhang thought about it, such a big girl with better conditions at home has been raised in the boudoir, if it is not a last resort, I am afraid that the parents are reluctant to let the little girl show up like this.

"I don't know where Miss Yu's family lives, when will all the remaining chestnuts be delivered?"

"In this way, it will take a few days for all the chestnuts to come out, today I brought ten catties to the shopkeeper to stay, and the remaining three days later, I also asked the shopkeeper to send an ox cart to Longfei Village to pull it, do not hide the shopkeeper, my father and brother are not at home, this nearly 100 catties of chestnuts are all sent over It is indeed more difficult, and please ask the shopkeeper to send someone to run."

"This is natural, then let's say so, I'll send someone to pick it up in three days, I don't know which one in Longfei Village?"

"Most of the people in this Longfei village are surnamed Xu, and the surname Yu is only my family, and you only need to inquire about the Yu family when you enter the village."

"So, I remember. This is today's ten catties of chestnut money, one hundred and fifty wen, and this is the remaining one hundred catties of fixed money of five hundred dollars. It's six hundred and fifty copper coins, and you can count them. Shopkeeper Zhang took out a bag of silver money from his coat pocket and handed it to Ruyi.

Ruyi didn't count it, and put it directly in his pocket.

"After those three days, I was waiting at home for good news." If you want to make a gesture to the shopkeeper, then you will leave.

"Girl, stay ......" Ruyi turned around and saw a servant dressed as a servant walking towards him.

"What?"

"This is a reward from my son-in-law to the girl, and my son-in-law said that if there are any rare things in the future, please send them." As he spoke, he handed a dime of silver to Ruyi.

Ruyi was stunned for a moment, is such a generous reward a bit excessive?

"Girl, let's go on, my son-in-law said, today's chestnut roast chicken is very good, I hope that in the future, the girl will have good food and remember to come to our windward building first, I hope to cooperate with the girl for a long time in the future."

"That being the case, then thank you Childe, Childe's words, I remember, I naturally hope to cooperate with Windward Building for a long time. Please tell your son-in-law that there will be a next time. ”

Ruyi took the silver and turned away.

The shopkeeper hurriedly went up to the second floor and knocked on the door of a private room.

"Young Master, why do you want to reward that girl so much today?"

"You taste it again." Feng Ruyue didn't raise her eyelids and continued to drink tea.

Shopkeeper Zhang put another piece of chicken in his mouth, which was indeed better than what he had eaten before.

"It's not just chestnuts that the young master values, but this girl's cooking skills?" The shopkeeper's sudden enlightenment.

"It's not too stupid. I'm afraid that there is no cook in our town who has this girl's cooking skills, and he can't be preempted by others, so you can go down, and today's ten catties of chestnuts will be sent back to the house, so that the kitchen will be fried and distributed to each room, and the Qingli Courtyard will not be left behind. ”

"Got it, I'll go down first."

The wind waved like a moon and said no more.
