The kitchen of Xiaofu is divided into external kitchen and internal kitchen, the inner kitchen is responsible for the three meals of the masters, the outer kitchen is mainly responsible for the three meals of the people, the kitchen manager is the mother-in-law of the account room Zhang Rui's family, and each courtyard also has a small kitchen, but basically they are not allowed to open their own fire, and those favored aunts occasionally want to eat some small stoves, and they also ask for permission from their own masters, so they will go to the small kitchen of their own yard according to the row of cooks.

It happened that the housekeeper of the kitchen was not there today, only a mother-in-law surnamed Sun was leading the little girl to clean, preparing the noon meal, and seeing Hongxing help a pretty daughter-in-law walk in, they all stopped what they were doing and watched.

"The new second grandmother came to cook porridge for the second master, you haven't come to see the ceremony" Hongxing saw that everyone was standing straight and looking at them, and hurriedly shouted.

Grandma Sun hurriedly led the little girls to kneel on the ground: "Second grandmother Wanfu, what is the matter with you, just send a girl to give an order, why did you come by yourself, you can be expensive, kill the old slave"

"Let's all get up, the second master's body has just recovered, and he is still weak, I will come over and cook some porridge for the second master, and grandma Sun will prepare a stove for me" Mengxi calmly ordered.

The grandmother-in-law thought, this is the bride of Chongxi yesterday, not to mention that the rules in this house are not allowed, just to say that the young lady of the big family has no own cooking, so she despised it, and did not keep it again, and hurriedly instructed the little girl to prepare a stove and a utensils, and stood aside to watch the excitement.

Mengxi thought about it and instructed the kitchen girl to take some frost mulberry leaves, juhua flowers, Sichuan fritillary, and begonia leaves, wash them and put them into a sterilized gauze bag, put them in a clay pot, and add fresh well water, boiled them for half an hour, removed the residue, added japonica rice and cooked them again, and added some rock sugar. The person ordered it to be served, with four side dishes, carried by the maid, supported by the red apricot, and returned to the upper room.

This bowl of mulberry chrysanthemum porridge is only one more flavor of begonias compared with what she made in her previous life, the reason why Mengxi chose to make mulberry chrysanthemum porridge is because mulberry chrysanthemum can nourish the liver and yin, nourish blood and eyes, and is suitable for Xiao Jun's current body, and the second is to add begonia leaves, begonia leaves have a light taste, frost mulberry leaves and Sichuan fritillary mother have a heavy taste, which is just covered, and with the fragrance of chrysanthemum, Xiao Jun must not be able to pay off the taste of begonias, she is not afraid that Xiao Jun will eat the taste of begonias once or twice, but to eat it for a month, in case Xiao Jun finds out, he will definitely be suspicious, Mengxi has just married into this deep mansion compound, she must be careful everywhere, always be vigilant, for fear that if she makes a mistake, she will be swallowed by this deep courtyard, in her previous life, she has seen too many fights of women in this compound on TV, but she didn't expect that one day it would be her turn to have a live show.

Back in the upper room, Hongzhu Hongyu had finished her meal and was waiting in the room, the second master saw Mengxi coming in, glanced at her, and asked coldly, "Where did you go in the morning?" ”

"Back to the second master, the concubine thought that the second master's body was still weak, so she went to the kitchen to boil mulberry porridge for the second master" Mengxi stepped forward and replied.

Xiao Jun glanced at the food plate brought by the little girl behind Hongxing, and his face instantly became gloomy:

"Li Mengxi, you have married into our Xiao family, you must always remember your identity, keep the rules of the Xiao family, the future mother of the dignified family, how can you mix with the next person, you don't want to lose face, don't lose my face in vain"

"The second master is angry, it's all the slave's fault, the second grandmother doesn't understand the rules of the Xiao Mansion, and the slave didn't dissuade the second grandmother from going to the chef and begged the second master to punish her."

Seeing Xiao Jun's anger, Hongxing immediately knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

"The slave didn't serve the second grandmother well, and begged the second master to punish her"

Hongzhu Hongyu also knelt down, and glanced at Mengxi resentfully, this second grandmother, she can't live in peace, and she angered the second master on the first day she entered the door, if she goes on like this, how will she live in the future. The little girls in the back also knelt on the ground with Hulala.

Mengxi knew that he was abrupt, it turned out that this was the family's rule, if the housewife wanted to please her husband and wash her hands and make soup herself, then she could only cook it for her husband in the small kitchen in her backyard, and she was not allowed to go to the chef, the status of the chef's subordinates was too low, and people and snakes were mixed, which humiliated the identity of the housewife.

"Second master, the concubine didn't know that there was such a rule, Hongxing listened to my arrangement, please don't punish Hongxing, it's the concubine's fault, ask the second master to punish"

Mengxi lowered his eyebrows and stepped forward to reply.

Xiao Jun glanced at Mengxi:

"Come on, Hongxing is waiting for grandma, I don't know what to do and what not to do to persuade grandma, pull it down, and slap it ten times."

"Ask the second master not to punish Hongxing, it was the concubine who asked Hongxing to do it" Mengxi's face turned pale immediately, and he begged Xiao Erye calmly

"Pull it down, slap fifteen"

"The slave begged the second grandmother not to say anything, Xie Second Master punished, and the slave and maid went to receive the punishment"

Hongxing watched Xiao Jun's face get darker and darker, glanced at the second grandmother resentfully, kowtowed again and again, and a mother-in-law had already come up and pulled Hongxing down.
