Chapter 180: Women's Culinary Academy
After Cuihua recovered from her illness, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu went to school with peace of mind, and Mr. Mu gave them more and more homework.
After Xiaocao repeatedly confirmed that her aunt was well, she resumed her daily routine.
Xiao Wu, who began to practice kung fu in the house, had already lived in the front yard for the convenience of the medicinal bath, and Xiao Liu didn't want to be left behind, so he lived with his brothers.
In the main courtyard now, there is only one Cuihua left in the empty and lonely, which is really a little uncomfortable.
Heiwa sleeps with a few boys on the boat every night, except for writing letters to Cuihua every day, she doesn't have time to come in.
Cuihua didn't want to let herself be empty and think about it, and the idea she had a long time ago came up again, and after thinking about it, she felt that this matter should be able to be done.
After preparing for a few days, I went into the palace to find my girlfriend.
When Cuihua entered Kunning Palace, Queen Gao was happy, watching Princess Jingyao play puzzles with her younger brother.
"Come on, come and sit, don't talk about those false courtesies!" When Empress Gao saw someone, she hurriedly beckoned.
"The courtiers have met the queen mother, and have seen Her Royal Highness the princess, Her Royal Highness the Fifth Prince!" Cuihua's consistent etiquette is not to blame.
"Hello Mrs. Bo!" Princess Jingyao led her younger brother to greet her, and the fifth prince stared at Cuihua curiously, this lady he felt kind.
"The princess has grown taller again, she looks so good, Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince is really strong."
"Yes, this kid has a good appetite, he can eat most of the bowl at each meal, and the doll meal made by the cook brought back from your house is quite good! Is this illness all good? You can really do it, your family is loyal and diligent, and you have taken your soul away!" Empress Gao couldn't help but quip.
"Niangniang, the courtiers just have a cold, and they don't get sick for a few years, but they get serious once they get sick." Cuihua was rarely embarrassed, but she didn't expect this Queen Gao to make a joke about her.
"Tut-tut, you just quibble, it's not easy to take the initiative to enter the palace once, but what's the difficulty?"
In Queen Gao's impression, Zhong Qinbo and his wife are both people who don't like to make friends, and they don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but every time they find it, it's still a good thing, and she looks forward to her coming often.
"Niangniang, the courtiers want to borrow your banner to open a cooking academy, which will take in girls and teach them how to cook!"
"A college that specializes in cooking? Only girls? Let's be more careful."
Queen Gao likes to use women for everything Cuihua does, and she is used to it. The people who can work are women, and this time they actually used unmarried girls.
"Niangniang, the courtiers want to build a culinary academy where you can not only teach the dishes of various local cuisines, but also learn all kinds of pastries and snacks.
The Master hired women from all over the country who could cook these local dishes, preferably literate and able to write.
Students can be divided into two categories: one is free room and board, and free teaching, and the other is room and board, which need to pay tuition fees according to the course to study.
The teaching time can be divided into elementary, intermediate, and advanced, and the learning time is: one year, three years, and five years!
The courtiers invite you to be the honorary chief of the Women's Culinary Academy!"
Empress Gao listened very interestingly, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Where did these free students come from? How many people are you going to recruit?"
"Hui Niangniang, free students, courtiers want to recruit from the good hall in the capital, let's recruit a hundred in the first year, the age is 10 to 15 years old, choose some diligent students.
It's better for students who charge fees, so let's give it to the girls of the right age of the noble families.
With your banner and the craftsmanship of the courtiers, I guess there should be a lot of money to learn."
Empress Gao slapped happily: "Don't talk about the Xungui family, this palace wants to send you a few from the imperial dining room, so I will rush your craftsmanship." How many students are you going to take?"
Cuihua grinned: "This will be arranged by the mountain chief lady, and the master of the academy will trouble you to help Zhang Luo Zhang Luo."
"It turns out that this palace not only wants to be the banner, but also to work for you?" Queen Gao pretended to be disgusted, and the corners of her mouth couldn't stop rising.
"Hehe, mother, you can work harder, let's take care of external resources
Source, one is responsible for internal teaching, complement each other!" Sometimes the appropriate obedience and demand can make the collaborator feel that he is needed, her mantra.
"This palace has to talk to Your Majesty about this, and you have to find a suitable house to be an academy to come out, you allow this palace to find out, and send you a letter in a few days!"
"Niang Niang is out of the horse, a top girl!" Sycophant, Cuihua really knows.
"The queen mother is the best!" The five princes were very popular, and when he heard people praise his mother, he was happy.
"The fifth prince is really, Niangniang, your intimate little cotton pants, hehe!"
"And what am I, Mrs. Bo?" "The princess is naturally a caring little padded jacket!"
"And what is Brother Prince?" "Well, that's the mother's mink!"
"Hahaha, we are all the queen mother's winter clothes, very warm and warm!"
Kunning Palace was full of music, and the laughter continued, which made the grandmothers can't help but curl the corners of their mouths. This loyal and diligent Mrs. has the ability, not only is her mother rare, but even their old women are rare for her to enter the palace.
This cheerful atmosphere continued into the evening, so that Xia Hongdi, who came to Kunning Palace for dinner, felt it, he raised his eyebrows, isn't it Mrs. Zhongqinbo who has entered the palace!
After eating, of course, you have to stay overnight while the queen is in a good mood.
Xia Hongdi, who also wanted to have an in-depth exchange with the queen, was stunned by the queen's bright eyes, swallowed his saliva, and took the initiative to ask, "What is the queen's important business?"
"Your Majesty, the concubine will tell you."
Seeing that the queen happily finished talking to him, she even sat up excitedly, looked at him, and asked in a somewhat coquettish tone:
"Your Majesty, look, this house to be used to open the academy, you help the concubines find it?"
"Uh, this, this women's culinary academy, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right?" Xia Hongdi's heart trembled, and his words stammered.
"What's wrong? We are not doing this for the imperial examination, but just teaching and cooking, from the master to the students, they are all women, which can be regarded as reducing the burden of the good hall and doing good deeds.
When these girls have a skill, they can earn money to support themselves, and they can even feed back to Shantang! Say yes, Your Majesty!" Queen Gao really thought that the dog man disagreed, and the volume of her voice was a little squeamish.
Xia Hongdi got goosebumps, this queen, oops, she actually learned to be coquettish, not to mention, this taste is really unique.
Queen Gao: The old lady has been watching for a long time, the dog man is used to loving his daughter to be spoiled, Yaoyao but everything happens, as long as she is coquettish a few times, beg for more, the dog man can immediately get dizzy, she has studied for a long time, and she has disgusted herself, don't be bad!
This is really a lot of worry, cold people, once the Jiao'e route is opened, who can bear it?
Xia Hongdi's throat tightened, and he took Queen Gao into his arms, his eyes erupting with fire: "If this can't be done, it depends on Chang'e's performance tonight, Chang'e, if I agree, how will you repay your husband?"
This, actually called her maiden name, Queen Gao panicked, and put her hand on Xia Hongdi's chest, "You, you are serious!"
Xia Hongdi laughed lowly: "Chang'e, how serious do you want your husband to be, hehe, you are really a coquette!"
didn't give Queen Gao too much reaction, and Xia Hongdi, who was in high spirits, leaned over and gagged her
The night in early spring is still a little cold, the red quilt is turning a heat wave, one whispers in the ear from time to time, and the other is so embarrassed that he wants to scratch a few paws.
The grandmother who kept vigil heard this movement and smiled from ear to ear, our queen, the first favorite queen of the harem is undoubtedly the queen!
Queen Gao's coquettishness and extraordinary skills directly made Xia Hongdi stay for a whole month.
Cuihua waited so long that she thought that this matter might be yellow, and it was not until the end of the month that she received good news from the palace.
Not only was he allowed to open the college, but he also chose the address of the college, a quarter of an hour away from Zhongqinbo's mansion.
His Majesty the Emperor's private property, a five-entry mansion, after the mansion was set to be used as a academy, Xia Hongdi also said that he would contract all the decoration and decoration of the academy.
emperor
Later, she sent her grandmother to invite Cuihua to the big house, and how to decorate and decorate it depends on her Zhang Luo, and the queen only has to pay for it.
Cuihua already has a charter in her heart, since she wants to be a culinary college, the most important teaching venue must be the big kitchen. In the second courtyard, the largest one was selected, and a large room of more than 500 square meters was opened up to make a large kitchen.
From the design of the stove to the placement of the water supply pipe connecting to the well, as well as the place to wash and cut vegetables and place condiments, Cuihua has been used reasonably in every inch of space.
The stove also needs to be covered with white tiles, the floor should also be paved with dirt-resistant and non-slip floor tiles, and the roof should be paved with a large number of glazed tiles to ensure that the light is bright enough in the daytime.
Such a space can accommodate 200 pots at the same time, imagine the sound of cutting meat, the sound of 200 pots stir-frying, how lively it must be here.
In addition to the large kitchen, the girls will definitely have to learn cultural lessons, and the front yard is used for reading and writing. There is no need for them to learn all the four books and five classics thoroughly, at least the commonly used words can be written and recognized, simple contracts can be read, and arithmetic cannot be left behind.
No matter how small the college is, the canteen, bathhouse and dormitory are indispensable, and the masters have to be treated as a single room.
Cuihua walked around in this five-entry house for three days, and the preliminary decoration drawings were drawn roughly.
That's how her level is, no matter how much time she gives her, she can't draw the level of Heiwa, fortunately, she can at least explain the various functions of the design drawings and the effect she wants to achieve, so she doesn't delay the work.
As a future cook, the most important weapon of the culinary academy is, of course, all kinds of knives, all kinds of knives for cutting vegetables, meat and bones, piers, rolling pins, whetstones, all kinds of iron pots, etc.
Having the queen's banner is useful, otherwise, buying thousands of kitchen knives at a time will have to attract the attention of the government.
