It must be Ji Pozi who is mouthy again, boasting everywhere in the mansion, and falling into the ears of Qin Darling, the speaker has no intention, and the listener has a heart. It seems that after a while, I will go back to Yiniantang, and I have to beat her well, otherwise I may not cause any unnecessary trouble in the future.

Noya was a little worried, looking at Bailijiu and the old lady with a blank eye, and she was really afraid that Bailijiu would run away from home, and the old lady pulled the flag of "taking care of the overall situation" again, and nodded helplessly.

Fortunately, Baili Jiu just snorted coldly after hearing this: "It's okay if you don't come back, anyway, I have already given her the steps to the Qin family." If I have to inch in and take the shelf, I can't blame me for a hundred miles. ”

The old lady was also a little angry, thinking that Qin Darling was ignorant, but it was someone from her own family who came to the door, so she was so sloppy and lost the face of the General's Mansion, so she gave up angrily.

Noah secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The birthday banquet is the most trivial, An Ruoxi has never held such a banquet before, and the eldest girl is on the sedan chair for the first time.

Originally, she had the intention to take this opportunity to show off her skills, let the old lady see that she was the best hand in the house, and take this opportunity to win the financial power of the General's Mansion. So do everything yourself, no matter how big or small, all of them are on yourself, but who knows that you overestimate your own ability, and you are so busy that you are too busy to take care of one or the other, and you are in a mess. But if something goes wrong, and for fear of discrediting himself, he will blame all the people on his subordinates, and it will inevitably be complained in the house, and he will gradually be handed to the old lady.

Baili Jiu thought about it, the woman on the left and right Lin Nuoya was idle, and she often had nothing to do, so it was better to find something for her to do, so he handed over all the banquet arrangements to Nuoya.

The most thankless thing on the birthday banquet is the banquet. As the saying goes, it's hard to reconcile, and no matter how richly prepared this hospitality dish is, there will always be people picking bones out of the eggs. So An Ruoxi agreed happily, she was thinking about seeing Noah's jokes, and secretly provoked a few little stewards to oppose Noah and slack off.

There are many people in the kitchen who admire Noya's craftsmanship, because she has never hidden her secrets and answers all questions, and those who admire her secretly remind her to be careful.

Noah understands the truth that "a rat feces spoils a pot of porridge", if someone secretly does tricks, no matter how careful she is, she can't prevent it.

Her art of war these days is not in vain, the strong generals are out of the "bear soldiers", according to An Ruoxi's monopoly of power, the practice of doing what she does, idling the soldiers, exhausting the generals, sooner or later there will be no generals available, and the whole army will be wiped out. After she took over, she was methodical, formulating menus, purchasing ingredients, counting utensils, customizing tablecloths, distributing them reasonably, and processing them in advance. Three under five divided by two, all the errands will be assigned, strict rewards and punishments, and they are only responsible for unified management and supervision, and they are still idle.

Because each dish at the birthday banquet is specifically assigned to the head of the individual, unity and cooperation, but the division of responsibilities, rewards and punishments are clear, so everyone is dedicated to the dishes they are responsible for, lest there be a little mistake. Doing so is tantamount to the entire kitchen becoming Noah's eyeliner, always vigilant, so that those with bad intentions have no chance to take advantage of it.

There are also those who are not afraid of death, who want to secretly do some sabotage and incite trouble, but when they are detected, they happen to be killed by Noya and punished harshly, giving others a warning. Who would dare to lose their jobs for An Ruoxi's little bit of petty reward?

Noya also learned the management method from the shopkeeper Tian, and he didn't expect it to come in handy immediately, and he is now learning and selling.

She also wanted to prepare a unique birthday banquet for the old lady. I made a special trip to Hongbin Building and Natural Residence, humbly consulted a few masters, learned from their strengths, and took a lot of thought.

Natural residence, as Baili Jiu said, business is prosperous, wealth is abundant, and the silver like flowing water is put into Noya's pocket. She has loose money, and she naturally rewards her subordinates who do her best, and she is not stingy. After several dealings, the subordinates in the house initially changed their initial impression of Noya.

All of this made An Ruoxi, who was still busy, very uneasy. Although Lin Nuoya is just a concubine, if one day the limelight surpasses her, it will be a bad thing. Originally, Baili Jiu didn't want to see himself, and he rushed to get the old lady to have the opportunity to show his face this time. If she made a wedding dress for Lin Nuoya, how could she still have her own day?

Seeing that the next day was the old lady's birthday banquet, An Ruoxi was tired and sick, and she heard that she got up in the morning, and she fainted gorgeously as soon as her feet touched the ground. After the old soup was diagnosed, he said that he was overworked and mentally ill, and there was no major problem, and he only needed to rest in bed.

An Ruoxi was so anxious that she beat her chest, annoyed, and struggled to get out of bed, lest she delay the birthday banquet and be dissuaded by the old lady, full of distress.

As a birthday star, the old lady naturally has no time to take care of the idle things in the house the next day. Baili Jiu has been busy these days, and all the trivial matters have been piled up on Noya, who is chatting with melon seeds.

Twilight muttered disappreciatively: "Sooner or later, it's not sick, tomorrow is the birthday banquet, she chooses today." Why is it so coincidental every time you get sick? If you always play bitter meat tricks, can't you change a fresh trick? ”

When he said this, Twilight was directing Liuli Yingluo to block the drainage ditch in the courtyard, saying that a weasel had come into the house, and he ran to the old soup stove to make a mess and stir up the medicine. The old soup man put a trap under the wall last night, and caught something as soon as it was dark, but it broke free and escaped, leaving only a pool of warm blood.

Although there are bubbles in Yinian Hall, there is a lot of food, so you must take precautions. Anyway, there was no rain on a cold day, so the ditch was temporarily blocked.

Noah didn't bother with these trivial matters, and she was feeling anxious.

I have to say that what An Ruoxi left behind was a mess, at least in Noya's opinion, now she is undoubtedly wiping her buttocks, wiping it clean, people lift their pants and leave, they can't wipe it clean, and they end up disgusting.

Noah quickly summoned all the stewards in the house, re-filtered the progress of the birthday banquet, and spoke widely, predicting and preparing for all possible events in advance. Write down the preparations that have not yet had time to be made and assign them to the relevant stewards.

It only took half an hour to understand all the matters, implement them concretely, and complete them on time as soon as possible. If there is a mistake in any link on the day of the birthday banquet, the person in charge will bear all the responsibility.

Originally, An Ruoxi was authoritarian and wanted to do everything, even if it was a lantern hanging location, she had to point fingers and find faults, causing the responsibilities and powers of the subordinates and the stewards to be unclear, so the people below were not dedicated, the perfunctory should be perfunctory, the oil and water should be fished, and they pulled each other, prevaricated, and a little thing was delayed for many days. Who dares to slack off now, and many things that Noah has no scruples have also thought of and prepared in advance.

After all, Noya was inexperienced, and he was afraid that something would go wrong, so he left the house in a hurry, and asked the commander's wife to help with the dots and receive the guests on the day of the birthday banquet. After all, it is not her forte to welcome and send off, and as a concubine, if she stands at the door to greet distinguished guests, picky people will probably feel that the General's Mansion does not understand etiquette and is a little lazy.

She informed the shopkeeper Tian to bring a few clever restaurant guys and cooks to enter the house in advance to understand the environment in the house, assist the kitchen steward in charge of the banquet, and completely free herself up.

Rao is so, there are still a lot of troublesome things, but if there is no idea, give a reward, as long as anyone has a reasonable method, there must be a reward. Who wouldn't want to take this opportunity to show their hand and look the other way? Three stinkers, one Zhuge Liang, will naturally be solved.

Taking into account the overall situation, the rewards and punishments are clear, crisp and neat, and not dragging mud and water, this is the last evaluation of Nuoya by the housekeeper of Baili Mansion in front of the old lady, and he is noncommittal and does not judge An Ruoxi.

When everything was ready, Noah breathed a sigh of relief and fell asleep.

The second day was a rare sunny day.

The guests who congratulated the birthday came one after another, and the canopy in front of the general's mansion gathered, and the river flowed endlessly. The old lady was dressed in flowers, smiling happily, and sat peacefully in the middle hall. Under the command of Noya, the subordinates performed their duties in an orderly manner, and commanded the wife and the butler to stand at the door to greet the guests.

Baili Jiuyi went to the palace in the morning, saying that he would rush back as soon as possible, until the end of the morning dynasty, the guests were full of doors, and there was no trace of him.

Yunhe came to the front yard and saw her eating tea leisurely, and his face was full of surprise: "Hey, Aunt Lin, aren't you in the backyard garden?" Why did you come here in a blink of an eye? Faster than me. ”

Noah didn't turn his head: "I've always been here, when did I go to the backyard garden?" ”

Yunhe smiled embarrassedly: "That's me dazzled, no wonder I shouted twice, and people ignored me." ”

After speaking, he shook the burden in his hand: "I didn't see you early in the morning, and said that you were busy, so I deliberately brought the clothes and hairpin rings to the front yard." It's also a happy event in the house, your clothes smell of oil smoke, how can you see people? ”

At the beginning of the month, the house made three winter clothes for her in advance, one for the birthday banquet, one for the New Year, and the other for the banquet to be worn for the banquet, and she forgot about it when she was busy.

Originally, it didn't matter, but after all, it was the old lady's birthday banquet, it was too shabby, and the old lady was not happy, so she found a warm pavilion where no one wore it.

The two were talking and laughing and walking out of the door, when someone hurriedly ran in and shouted to Nuoya to hurry out of the house, saying that someone from the Qin family was coming and asked her to go quickly.

Noah's first instinct was that something was wrong. If the Qin family came to congratulate the old lady on her birthday, the second aunt would naturally arrange to eat and drink inside. This is to call oneself out by name, and it is clear that those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come.
