190 run-in period
Su Qingluan didn't know how many unexpected chain reactions her win-win move would bring in the future, and she stared at Liu Yunniang's "work results" on the first day, revealing an expression similar to a toothache.
Liu Yunniang was originally slightly taller than Su Qingluan's head, and she was thin and thin, so she was very tall and neat like a sapling.
But now, the leaves of the "little sapling" are a bit wilting and drooping, and Liu Yunniang also knows that she is a little crooked, and she can't take it.
"Or ...... Why don't I get today's wages for now...... Wait until I can practice my knife skills......"
"It's useless to just practice," Su Qingluan shook her head, seeing that Liu Yunniang's face had changed, she realized that what she said was ambiguous, and hurriedly explained, "Yunniang, don't worry, it's not all your fault, it's my negligence." ”
She herself used the knife given by Mr. Xu Kekuan, and just in case, she went to the blacksmith shop to make two spares.
Most of the knives used by ordinary people are bronze knives, at most they are pig iron knives, and few of them specialize in using wrought iron kitchen knives like Su Qingluan - or rather, they can't afford to use them if they want to.
And Liu Yunniang's family is very poor and poor, even the most common bronze knife, it is rusty and mottled, this kind of knife usually cuts all wild vegetables, this relatively soft and crisp ingredients are enough, but if you cut thick and flexible water, and even some fascia that is very difficult to handle, it will be stretched.
So even if Liu Yunniang worked very hard, the launch of the "delivery" on the first day was crooked, with teeth and teeth, and it looked like the painting style was very ...... Freehand.
As the saying goes, "If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools", Su Qingluan gently held Liu Yunniang's hand that was eager to break the corner of her clothes, and patted it to reassure: "Don't worry, everyone has such a process, and you can't learn it, I won't fire you because of this matter." ”
Liu Yunniang heard Su Qingluan's assurance, and while breathing a sigh of relief, she felt even more guilty: "The young owner is so generous, but I messed up the work and wasted so much water in vain." ”
"It's not going to be wasted," Su Qingluan smiled and shook his head, "It's just that it takes some effort to divide the batch into batches during the initial processing, but it's your working guy who needs to change it." ”
Turning around and handing over those launches to his father, Su Qingluan let the two of them take the first step, and he took Liu Yunniang to the blacksmith shop.
At first, Liu Yunniang didn't know where to go, so she obediently followed. But when Su Qingluan said that she was going to the blacksmith shop, she retreated again and again: "No way, no way!" Any object in that shop, to say the least, costs more than a dozen dollars, where can my family afford it? ”
Su Qingluan saw her avoidance and said with a smile: "I don't need you to spend money, what are you afraid of?" ”
"That's even less so!" Liu Yunniang shook her head into a rattle, "I did my job badly, not only did you not punish me for my wages, but also bought me things, how can it be done?" ”
"I didn't buy it for you, I borrowed it from you!" Su Qingluan forced Liu Yunniang into the blacksmith shop, asked her to choose a wrought iron kitchen knife, and explained, "The bronze knife is not sharp enough, it will be very laborious to cut a tough ingredient like water, and the rust is ......."
Su Qingluan thought for a moment. She knew that the words "rust is harmful, it's best not to eat it" was incomprehensible to Liu Yunniang, so she could only say it another way: "If the rust falls into the soup, it will affect the taste, and the guests will not buy it next time if they drink the soup with a rusty taste." ”
On the way back from the blacksmith shop, Su Qingluan patiently explained to Liu Yunniang how to cut vegetables harder to save physical strength, and then briefly talked about how to maintain wrought iron knives and how to sharpen knives:
"Every time you feel that the blade is dull, if there is no whetstone, soak the blade in salt water, and then scrape it back and forth with the bottom of the plate, just like this," Su Qingluan drew a few times, "Our plates and bowls are all coarse porcelain, and they can also be used as whetstones." ”
Liu Yunniang was like a good student, her dark eyes kept staring at Su Qingluan's movements, taking her words to heart little by little, and then nodding vigorously: "Don't worry, I remember everything." Then this knife ......"
"I said I'll lend it to you first," Su Qingluan blinked, "You have to keep it well, and if you don't help here at my house in the future, you have to return it to me." ”
Of course, Su Qingluan was just saying this, she knew that if she didn't say that, according to Liu Yunniang's more serious temperament, she would definitely not accept this kitchen knife.
Sure enough, when she heard that she was just "borrowing" the knife to herself, Liu Yunniang was obviously relieved, and then nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, young owner, such a precious object is handed over to me, I will use it well, take good care of it, and never lose it, otherwise God-"
"Eh, don't talk nonsense!"
Su Qingluan hurriedly covered Liu Yunniang's mouth - since she crossed over, although she still felt that most of the gods and goddesses and the like must be swaggering, but there was a little bit of awe for the "providence" and "fate" in the underworld, not to mention that many of the ancients swore that they were sincere - after all, they really believed this!
It's a vow for a kitchen knife...... Isn't that an exaggeration?
Su Qingluan forgot that judging from her current family background, a wrought iron kitchen knife may not be a huge amount of money, but for Liu Yunniang, this knife is worth more than ten taels of silver, and she can afford to do the work she doesn't know how long she has to do!
After Su Qingluan bought the equipment for his "employees", he didn't expect Liu Yunniang to carefully bring the kitchen knife home with any sincere fear.
And this kitchen knife made Liu Sheng, who was sick in bed, almost "sit up in shock in his dying illness": "Girl! Because the man who had been lying in bed all day and had a somewhat dull complexion was so frightened that his face turned pale for three points in a moment, "You, you obviously took a wrought iron knife?!" ”
Yun Niang was still thinking about the methods that Su Qingluan had just taught her how to use and maintain the kitchen knife, so she nodded a little absentmindedly: "Yes, it's an iron knife." ”
I never thought that her kind of delirious appearance made Liu Sheng, a father, even more uneasy, and the expression on her face changed like a marquee for a moment.
Liu Yunniang put away the new water and kitchen knife she brought today, and was about to start working, only to find that her father was staring at her inexplicably in a dark color.
After a moment, Liu Sheng hesitated: "Girl, you ...... Didn't you do something so hurtful as robbing your house? ”
Liu Yunniang: ......??
