006 The newcomer enters the house
Chu Liangrao quietly took the small movements of the two into her eyes, and guessed the reason why the old lady sent these two people. Qin'er is lively and generous, but she is impulsive by nature, while Hua'er is calm and introverted, taking into account the overall situation and being able to contain Qin'er. The two of them complement each other and are diligent, which is the most suitable for Chu Liangrao, who lacks people in the room.
Not only that, if Qin'er's impulsive temperament meets the previous Chu Liangrao, it is like a bomb encountering a fuse, if Chu Liangrao's brain fever follows the impulse, the calm painting can work. From this point of view, the old lady still has the intention of testing and investigating, compared to the previous ignorance, this practice not only did not make Chu Liangrao disgusted, but also relieved in her heart.
The two maids were talking to Chu Liangrao in the back room, while Du's mother went to the newly purchased kitchen to watch the progress of dinner, leaving Xianglan alone in front of the door in a daze, and the action of playing the rope had already stopped. After a while, Hua'er retreated, and when she heard the movement, Xianglan hurriedly got up and shouted softly: "Sister Hua'er." ”
Reaching out and taking off the veil hanging on Xianglan's sleeve and putting it in the palm of her hand, the painting said, "Dare you be lazy here." ”
"Slave no!" Pandan was anxious to defend herself.
Hua'er said with a serious face: "Do you think that Qin'er and I will serve the county lord for a lifetime, Xianglan, it is a good thing to abide by our duties, but the premise is to do our own duty." After a pause, the painting said in a soft tone, "Now you are a big girl in the county lord's room, you have to show your appearance." ”
This was something that Du's mother hadn't said to herself, and Xianglan was still a little apprehensive in her heart, but after thinking about it, she knew the meaning of the painting, and her eyes welled up with gratitude, and her face was slightly red: "Sister Hua'er, the slave knows what to do." ”
"Let's go in, fan Qin'er for a while, she should have a sore hand." Drawing said.
There was a hint of hesitation on her face, and Xianglan was about to speak, but she saw Hua'er staring at her as if she was afraid that she would escape, so she walked in. When Qin'er saw her come in, she asked her to help with the fan, and talked to Xianglan again.
Originally, he was still a little restrained, but when he saw Chu Liangrao looking at him with a smile, he didn't have the disgust he had before, so he replied crisply. After saying a few words, Xianglan was amused by Qin'er, Chu Liangrao couldn't help laughing out loud, and the brisk laughter soothed the uneasiness in her heart, and Xianglan relaxed her heart and talked with Qin'er.
"I've only been there for a long time, and you're just chirping in the house, and you don't get too tired on a hot day." Du's mother said as she wiped her face with a handkerchief, "This weather is really going to be hot." ”
"Mom just came out of the kitchen, naturally it was hot, and the slave came to fan Mom." Qin'er said coincidentally.
"It's yours." Mother Du laughed, and said to Chu Liangrao, "County Lord, you can set the meal in a quarter of an hour." ”
Chu Liangrao nodded to show that she understood, in fact, she was already hungry. You must know that in order to lose weight, she deliberately eats less, almost oily. I don't know if it's because of obesity, sweating and consumption, I don't move much, but I'm often hungry. In her previous life, she successfully lost weight, naturally she would not give up halfway, and losing weight depended on perseverance.
Now that Chu Liangrao is inconvenient to go out to exercise because of being grounded, and the weather outside is so hot that she can't even take a break when she knows it, going out at this time is purely looking for abuse, so there is no other way than to control it from the entrance.
When the time came, Du's mother set the meal, and Chu Liangrao secretly screamed before she reached the table. I have to say that Ma Sijia really has some means, even if the dishes requested by Chu Liangrao are mainly light, they are still delicious, and the dishes look even more attractive.
Chu Liangrao was under a lot of pressure in an instant, and she didn't know how much effort it took to restrain herself and not sweep it away.
Mother Du saw that Chu Liangrao didn't eat much as usual, so she asked, "But it doesn't taste good?" ”
Chu Liangrao couldn't say that it was a good thing that the Ma Si family's dishes were well cooked, and it was reasonable to say that she should be rewarded, but why was she so reluctant...... She's not reluctant to pay for it! Definitely not!
The Ma Si family withdrew after receiving the bounty, although she didn't understand why the county lord was sad, but she knew that she shouldn't ask and didn't ask, if there was really a problem with dinner, presumably Du's mother would tell her alone.
After Qin'er and Hua'er had dinner, they changed Du's mother and Xianglan to eat, in the end, it was a big family, even if the next person dined, they didn't eat or sleep, Du's mother talked to Ma Si's family about Chu Liangrao's lack of food before the meal. Ma Sijia took it to heart, and when Du's mother had finished eating, she proposed to add two appetizers tomorrow.
Du's mother is now very confident in Ma Sijia's cooking skills, and she is also very satisfied with her carefulness, as for the rumors circulating in the house, it has not affected Du's mother's opinion of Ma Sijia's family in the slightest.
This is bitter Chu Liangrao, but in the face of delicious food, she can't eat happily, and she has to fight with the greedy villain in her heart for 800 rounds every day to get away with the principles.
This made the Ma Si family very concerned, she knew the amount of food the county lord used to eat, and now she eats so little, is it because she is not good at cooking? Originally, she was still confident in her skills, but she also began to doubt her ability, so she worked harder to improve her cooking skills, and finally, Chu Liangrao was overcome.
Seeing that Chu Liangrao's appetite was good, Du's mother smiled so much that she couldn't see her eyebrows, but Chu Liangrao was remorseful. According to the upgrade speed of the cook, let alone losing weight, it is a miracle that this weight does not double. Seeing that the Ma Si family had achieved results, they intensified their efforts to figure out their cooking skills, and Du's mother also handed over the recipes that Chu Liangrao had told her to the Ma Si family.
As domestic servants, Ma Sijia and Du's mother are illiterate, so they believe in the "recipes in the book" that Chu Liangrao said. I don't know that Chu Liangrao is also half illiterate now, that is, she reads books, and the pages of traditional Chinese characters have to be guessed by Lianmeng. Chu Liangrao is very worried, her cultural level suddenly returned to before the liberation, and it would be difficult for anyone to put it.
At the same time, Yaxing also sent the innocent, hard-working and hard-working maids to the house, and the Gu family arranged for someone to teach them the rules. In addition to the four little maids, there are also three older maids who are responsible for serving Chu Liangrao's daily life.
Chu Liangrao named them Zhen'er, Zhu'er, and Lilac respectively, and Xianglan also changed her name to Ding Lan.
Zhen'er is clever and intelligent, and her temperament is somewhat similar to Qin'er. And Zhu'er is lively and lovely, I heard that she was punished a lot when she learned the rules, which shows how active this girl is.
Lilac is the oldest and most calm among several people, and her cultural level is also the highest, for no other reason than because she has a talented father. Lilac's mother died early, and her father Zhu Xiucai made the family surrounded by the sourness and arrogance unique to scholars at this time, and now she is seriously ill and unable to pay the medical expenses, so Lilac will voluntarily enter the palace as a maid.
Although it seems that Lilac is helpless, in fact, it is not easy for Lilac to enter the palace to be on duty.
