Chapter 30: Long Heart
The people assigned by Xia Changyan to Lin Banxia are all good hands.
But these good hands are assigned to a woman, or a country girl, and they are not convinced.
Especially as soon as I saw him, he was arranged to go out to do things, and he didn't understand anything when he looked at it.
Self-employment is to be gracious and powerful.
I don't ask where there is anything, and I send out those who don't know anything.
Lin Banxia really didn't know about this.
She sent everyone away because she wanted to be quiet.
My father and mother went to the ground.
The sorghum in the field has been harvested under Xia Changyan's arrangement and is being dried.
The sorghum straw has not been completely cut.
Speaking of the harvest season, my father and mother always feel that there is less to do if they don't go to the ground.
Worried that she would stay at home alone, a big man guard at the door was raised to gossip, and she deliberately left the small stone and the little angelica.
The small stone was entangled with Li Wei to ride a horse, and the little angelica followed behind and ran up.
Lin Banxia looked at it for a while, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
The tea was slightly cold, and it seemed to taste better than the one she had brewed before.
Brick kilns and charcoal kilns should not be close to villages and farmland, and the smoke from the burning will pollute the air.
Lime residue after refining sugar, is that a contaminant?
How to deal with it?
The lunch of the people who come to work is arranged for the housekeeper, and it is estimated that the housekeeper will find the village chief, Zhao Chengfu, he will definitely be able to arrange it.
But these people were sent by the prince to listen to her orders, and she couldn't ignore them.
Lin Banxia put down the teacup, stood up slowly, and began to make lunch.
Li Wei wanted to come to help, but Lin Banxia refused.
She wasn't going to make that complicated for lunch.
Or sorghum rice porridge pancakes. When the cake is made fragrant, the dish can be simple.
Lin Banxia made a pot of white noodles and fried a large bowl of puff pastry, and before he laid out the panel, he saw Zhao Chengfu coming over with the housekeeper.
Unhurriedly, she grabbed a handful of white noodles and sprinkled them on the panel, grabbed a piece of noodles and rubbed them.
"Miss Lin, you're making lunch." Zhao Chengfu greeted first.
"Yes, my father and mother have gone to the ground." Lin Banxia smiled and said, "Village chief, housekeeper, you sit." ”
The housekeeper bent down slightly and reported: "Miss Lin, the lunch of several stewards has been arranged by Zhao Zhipen. Tonight for the time being, with the help of the villagers' houses. The yield of soybeans has been instructed to go to the county government to check. ”
Lin Banxia's subordinates didn't stop, kneading the dough into a mixture, "The housekeeper has worked hard, and the village chief has also worked hard." ”
The housekeeper and Zhao Chengfu looked at each other, and they were a little embarrassed.
The prince assigned the housekeeper to come over to assist Lin Banxia in person, that is, to treat Lin Banxia as half of the master.
Where there are masters cooking, they sit and watch.
The housekeeper smiled and said, "For the prince, it is right to do things for Miss Lin, where is the hard work." ”
Lin Banxia was the least polite, so he was not polite, and said directly: "You two should please sit down, taste the cake I baked later, and when you send it to your father and mother, you can discuss and discuss business." ”
The housekeeper shook his head: "Miss Lin is busy, where is the reason for us to sit." It's better for Miss Lin to tell us what we need to do. ”
Lin Banxia stopped, really thought about it seriously, and then said: "People who come to work can't always live in the villagers' homes. It is better for the housekeeper to talk to the prince, and first build a temporary residence outside the village, so that everyone can have a place to rest, eat and sleep. ”
Before the housekeeper could speak, Zhao Chengfu frowned slightly and said: "In the future, everyone who will work will be from the village, and they will all go back to their respective homes at night. ”
Lin Banxia didn't say anything, just glanced sideways at the housekeeper.
The housekeeper groaned slightly and said, "Miss Lin is thoughtful, it is not appropriate to always disturb the villagers. Zhao's concerns are reasonable......"
Lin Banxia smiled, "Even if you go to work in the future, you will have to eat at noon, and when it rains, you must have a place to shelter from the rain, and there will be someone to keep vigil at night."
However, where to build it, whether it is a wood-paneled house, a mud house or a brick house, this is still to be discussed.
There is also a person who knows how to report an account, and how much labor, materials, and silver are needed.
It's still early, so I guess I can do all of this before lunch. ”
"It can be done, Miss Lin." The housekeeper is really worthy of being a housekeeper, with a good attitude and strong ability.
Zhao Chengfu took a step forward, approached Lin Banxia and said in a low and angry voice: "Miss Lin, what is your identity now, how can you still cook by yourself?" Put it down, I'll find someone to do it. ”
"Who am I?" Lin Banxia squinted at Zhao Chengfu, "What does Zhao Zhibi say I am?" ”
Zhao Chengfu glanced at the housekeeper and saw that the housekeeper was instructing the people outside, and he didn't seem to notice this, so he hurriedly continued:
"Miss Lin, you have a snack, the prince lifts you up like this, you have to be worthy of the prince's lift, don't lose the prince's face outside."
Lin Banxia was a little annoyed, "Zhao Zhibi, do you mean to let me bully others?" ”
Zhao Chengfu choked and was about to say something, when out of the corner of his eye, he saw the housekeeper turn around and hurriedly took a step back, but he still couldn't help but finish his words: "You can cook for the prince, how can you still ......?"
Lin Banxia directly interrupted Zhao Chengfu's words: "Village chief, how many people in our village can go to work after the autumn harvest?" Or will there be a job tomorrow, have you counted it? ”
Zhao Chengfu's words were interrupted, he couldn't continue, he stopped, and only said in his heart, "I don't know what to do" before saying: "Now everyone is in the field, I'll ask when I finish work in the evening." ”
The housekeeper didn't come over, but hugged Xiao Angelica and led her to talk, chatted with Li Wei casually, and then asked Xiao Shi if he was willing to read.
Zhao Chengfu didn't speculate, so he simply said goodbye and left.
The housekeeper sent Zhao Chengfu to the gate of the courtyard, said a few more kind words, and watched Zhao Chengfu leave, then he came over with the little angelica and said:
"When the prince went back the day before yesterday, he asked the kitchen to cook sugar cakes, and he refused to eat them after tasting a bite, saying that the sugar cakes were not as delicious as Miss Lin's."
Lin Banxia laughed: "Don't make me happy with the housekeeper, where do I dare to compare with the chef of the palace." ”
The housekeeper shook his head and smiled: "The prince said, this cake still needs to be fragrant before it comes out of the pot." I'm also blessed today, and I can also taste Miss Lin's craftsmanship, and I'm still out of the pot. ”
Lin Banxia was getting out of the pot and making the first cake, put it on the plate at the moment, and put a bowl of sorghum rice porridge in his hand, all of which were served on the table, "The housekeeper doesn't dislike simplicity, just sit and rest." ”
The butler thanked him with a smile, and instead of sitting, he stood and tore a piece of bread and brought it to his mouth, nodding his head as he tasted it.
Lin Banxia didn't understand these rules, but he didn't want to sit because the housekeeper didn't want to sit, and he didn't force it.
After the housekeeper ate one, he divided the cake into two, and went to feed the little stone and the little angelica himself, and coaxed the two children to call him grandpa.
Lin Banxia was only ashamed of himself.
Butler, sure enough, not everyone can be a butler.
