Chapter 72 Kitchen Management
"Did you find something wrong?" Ou Mengmeng rinsed her mouth and looked at her. She didn't expect Daiyu to cover her stomach now because she had eaten too much, and she just happened to ask about the day's teaching.
"Why did you ask me first?" Daiyu tilted her head and looked at her grandmother, she was scared, but she felt that this shouldn't be asked to the second sister first, and then her, right?
"Well, can you not look so much like your uncle now? Afraid of the heavens and the earth, except for the emperor, he is afraid of everyone. But it's also done, remember to go back and scold your father when you go back. Ou Mengmeng shook her hand and looked at Yingchun, "You say, what's wrong with knowing this meal?" ”
"Is it a repetition of dishes? There are three dishes that taste the same. Yingchun saw that Daiyu was about to refute, so she hurriedly pressed her and said busily.
"Yes, as a housewife, the first thing to go through is the kitchen. Arrange daily diet, daily meat and vegetables, and the combination of flavors are the wisdom of the housemother, why did the second wife make me a water card and let me turn flowers to eat? In fact, this is also great wisdom, my own kitchen, I have a water card, except for the main dish, others, they are free to ride, most of them are passable, so I don't care about it, and it has a big heart. Ou Mengmeng commented, skipping Daiyu and ordering spring again, "Spring exploration." ”
"Originally, they were all vegetarian dishes, so the kitchen tastes were heavier, but I didn't want to, the old lady has always liked the taste of the south. Meals should be arranged according to people's tastes. The granddaughters didn't prompt the cook, and it was the granddaughters' fault. Tanchun said hurriedly.
They and the old lady have eaten all the way since they were children, today's dishes, except for the rice that the old lady requested, the other dishes were arranged by them, and now look, there are only two things that the old lady liked before. Although the old lady didn't say anything, they should also introspect themselves, after all, it is not appropriate to be attached to the old lady.
Ou Mengmeng nodded: "Yes, arranging food and drink depends on the person placing the order, people-oriented, this point of view is good." Think so in the future. However, as I said in the morning, don't worry about me, I want to lose weight and eat a healthier diet. The soft and sweet ones before are all gone. Save more and turn it all into meat. At this table, in terms of everyone's likes and dislikes, it is not wrong. ”
Tanchun was busy and embarrassed, after all, he was still a child, where could he hide his emotions.
"Sisters have said it, can you say it now?" Ou Mengmeng looked at Lin Daiyu, she wondered if she had spoiled this guy. But I seem to have heard that Sister Lin is a bit mean, so this is the essence?
"So the old lady named her by name, not by age, but by randomness?" Daiyu was really a little nervous, and asked hurriedly.
"Yes, sometimes, I know your answer, so I will ask you the second sister and the third sister first; Sometimes I don't need your answers, I'll ask Brother Rong's daughter-in-law first, your big sister. Because they're all standard answers. The six of you have different temperaments and look at problems from different angles, so I often ask you to answer questions, so that you can learn to learn from each other's strengths. Do you understand? Ou Mengmeng nodded, now understanding that Dai Yugang was not scolding herself, but puzzled, and smiled, "Grandmother just misunderstood you, and I will make a difference with you." However, you must understand that I am an elder, and it is very impolite and easy to misunderstand when you ask your grandmother such a rhetorical question. So in the future, in this regard, you have to learn from the eldest sister and the Qin family, and they are really standardized in terms of rules. ”
"Yes, the second sister and the third sister are right. What the granddaughter thinks is, we take it for granted. I ordered the food, and then I left it alone. We should find out the taste of each dish, and we must first determine the plating. "Daiyu really didn't eat in vain.
"Daiyu's point is also right, if the family prepares a big feast, it will be prepared several days in advance. In this case, you have to prepare the dishes, except for the dishes that you have eaten, and what you have not eaten, what will you do? You have to ask the cooks to make it one dish at a time, and then you have to confirm the taste, arrangement, and reconfirmation. However, these efforts have been accumulated all the way through the weekdays. It's not something you can master in a day. Ou Mengmeng shook her head at Lin Daiyu and looked at Qin Keqing, "You say!" ”
"This is the first time that the little aunts are in charge of the kitchen, and the things in it will come out after slowly grinding." Qin Keqing lowered his head and smiled after thinking about it, and said slowly.
"Something wrong." Ou Mengmeng gave her a roll of the eyes, and the child seemed to have adapted to it, becoming more and more slippery.
"Well, everybody's right. What the old lady likes, what the eldest aunt likes, all asked carefully. In fact, the eight dishes are ingenious, and the purpose is to make everyone accommodate each other. This is how the relationship of the family was originally established. However, the kitchen did not remind the aunts that the three dishes in the middle were similar in method and presentation, and it was not the aunts' fault. Qin Keqing covered his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled.
Now Daiyu and Yingchun, Tanchun understand that they are wrong because they don't care about the right person. If the cook was dedicated to their good, she should have explained the appearance of the eight dishes as early as possible, and the problems that might arise would have resulted in nothing.
At best, obedient fools; But if you think about it, is it eye medicine? Frame them? Or look at them, if they look down on them in the future, if they follow what Daiyu said, they will have to make dishes one by one in the future, so they will have to tie up with this cook.
"That's what it means! Being the mother of the house is originally a thousand things, except for the affairs of the master in the yamen, you can't take care of the rest, which one is not your concern? Food, clothing, housing and transportation, socializing outside, and taking care of it. Shangguan, subordinates' wives, children, parents' birthdays, death days, preferences, almost, will affect your master's promotion and work progress. Not to mention the seven aunts and eight aunts in the house, the people on the back street are all from the Jia clan, and they are all relatives, really pointing at your nose and scolding, but you still don't talk back? So, why let you start from the kitchen, what to manage in the kitchen, design the dishes, but also form your personal system, so that the family can find the taste of home. So, who's going to make it happen for you? Is it difficult for you to be the wife of the house? Of course, it's the cooks, compradors, and the little workers who help you. You are the marshal of the march, and those are your soldiers. Another point is that you have to master the taste yourself, and you can't change the chef and the taste of your home will change. Didn't you get held hostage by a cook? Therefore, the kitchen is the door of the house as the entry threshold of the family, but also the threshold of exit. If you really manage the kitchen well, you can take care of the people, money, and things in the family. Ou Mengmeng shook her head with a smile, thinking about the dish just now, and thinking about what everyone said, and turned to Xichun, "Four girls, are you full?" ”
"Uh-huh, but weird." Xiao Xichun's grandmother said.
"Poor one, if you want to eat well, you have to work hard yourself." Ou Mengmeng shrugged his shoulders.
"Secretly Can't Hide" is going to be broadcast on the 20th, and I'm quite looking forward to it, but there's really nothing to watch recently.
