Chapter 24 The Restaurant Chef
After weighing, Xiaoer said to Xie Qingyu:
"Miss, fennel 122, fennel 87, official laurel 105, official laurel 94, a total of 408."

"Okay." Xie Qingyu nodded, then looked at Lu Zhu, "Green Bamboo, give the shopkeeper five coins."

Today, Xie Qingyu's money was given to Li Yunfeng. Fortunately, Lvzhu Baizhi also brought a lot of money with him, even more than Xie Qingyu's.

"Yes." Luzhu took a step forward and gave Xiaoer five coins.

After Xiaoer took it, he found the change, handed the spices in one hand and the change in the other, and gave everything to Lu Zhu.

"Hold it well, I'll find your 92 papers, welcome to come back next time."

After leaving the spice shop, Xie Qingyu looked at Liu Zi who was taking the spices from Lvzhu's hand, and said, "Let's go, Uncle Liu Zi, let's go to the pharmacy next."

"Okay, miss."

Several people did the same, and bought cloves, Sichuan pepper (pepper), lemongrass, grass fruit (cardamom), and ginger at the pharmacy.

Unfortunately, the chili was still not found.

However, although Xie Qingyu doesn't know the specific formula of the brine, but the five main ingredients are all gathered.

At that time, add some onion and garlic.

It's a pity that it's not spicy.

Fortunately, the original flavor does not have a flavor.

Satisfied, Xie Qingyu hurried back to the General's Mansion. She hadn't forgotten that she was going to invite those veterans to dinner today.

Back at the General's Mansion, Xie Qingyu asked someone to bring the wheat flour, and then went straight to the kitchen.

"Ms. An, are you busy?" Xie Qingyu greeted Mrs. An when she came to the kitchen and saw Mrs. An who was choosing dishes.

"It's Miss, are you making new dishes today?"

Seeing Xie Qingyu coming, Mrs. An quickly put down the things in her hands and stood up.

Clapping his hands, he said, "Chunxi, pick the vegetables."

"Hey, okay." The girl named Chunxi responded, and then took over Mrs. An's job.

Mrs. An came over and looked behind Xie Qingyu, "Miss, what's in this bag?"

"Wheat flour." Xie Qingyu walked towards the kitchen and said, "Ms. An, you guessed it right, today I'm here to ask you to cook some new dishes."

When he was about to enter the door, Xie Qingyu grabbed the door frame and turned his head, "I heard that the things that welcome the inn are made by you, Mrs. An, but you are exhausted."

"It's a lie to say you're not tired, but it's worth it." Mrs. An said with a smile:
"I heard that those dishes are competing for someone to ask for them, and the business is better than other restaurants. This slave girl is very happy."

Seeing Mrs. An so happy, Xie Qingyu smiled, and said:
"Auntie and the others said that our family has opened a new restaurant, and the chef may not be available yet. Madam An, if you really like it, you can be the head chef."

Mrs. An took the green onions, ginger and garlic that she had prepared early on to the chopping board, and smiled: "I know about this. The ladies asked the slaves to handle it first, and then taught the manpower, and the slaves waved away."

"I also have the same idea. This family is used to eating dishes made by my slave. If I change people, I'm afraid I won't be used to it."

"The slaves were teaching two apprentices, but when you were teaching new dishes two days ago, miss, they were also helping."

"They were about to graduate soon, but these two days I let them practice new dishes. The taste is not bad, and they are completely qualified for the position of chef in a new restaurant."

While chopping garlic, Mrs. An continued: "The new store has just opened, and the ladies are afraid that they will be too busy, so they let me go for a few days."

Xie Qingyu who was on the side heard Mrs. An finished speaking, and then said: "So that's the case, it seems that I was just worrying about it."

"Ham, you can't say that. It also shows that Miss, you miss your family."

Mrs. An put the mashed garlic in a bowl, and then turned her head to refute.

"However, there are so many masters in this huge mansion, miss, you just go to the palace to study, and you can rest assured about this domestic matter."

Xie Qingyu nodded. She also heard about this matter in the morning, but it was not as detailed as Mrs. An said.

I only heard that people in the family are going to control the position of the shopkeeper and the kitchen, but they didn't say who will go.

She is new to employing people, so she is naturally not as familiar with them as her aunt.

But they all nodded in agreement, maybe there is nothing wrong with their character.

Moreover, they are all born in the family or have a contract of prostitution, so they are not afraid that they will turn the world upside down.

Seeing that Mrs. An had prepared the onion, ginger and garlic, Xie Qingyu held his hands and said:

"Ms. An, I took a look at the ingredients you prepared. There are meat, earthen eggs, cabbage, fungus, fish, and some wheat flour seems to be fermented."

"Then make shredded pork with cabbage, fried pork with black fungus, potato chips, fried egg sticks, sweet and sour fish, cabbage pork dumplings, and potato cakes tonight."

"Well, another egg custard."

After hearing Xie Qingyu's words, Mrs. An, who had been standing by the side, smiled and said, "Okay, just do what you said, Miss."

"Originally, I was thinking of using this fish to make fish soup, and try to see if it is really like what you said, using ginger will not make it fishy."

"However, hearing what Miss said, I feel that the sweet and sour fish cubes you mentioned should be better, so I won't make this fish soup."

Hearing that this fish is going to be used to make fish soup, Xie Qingyu snapped his fingers:
"Then make half of the sweet and sour fish cubes and the other half of fish soup. Today I will teach you the trick of stewing fish soup!"

After finishing speaking, Xie Qingyu winked playfully.

Seeing Xie Qingyu's lively movements, Mrs. An couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear.

Cheerfully said: "That's a good thing, today I'm in Miss's favor again."

At this time, Chunxi came in after picking vegetables, and answered the conversation with a smile: "That's not true, since Miss invented these foods, we don't have the same food every day."

"Not to mention anything else, just this wheat flour can make a lot of pastries. It's easy to make and tastes good."

"With wheat flour, the cakes in our house have a lot more variety!"

Seeing Chun Xi who came in looked familiar, Xie Qingyu asked Aunt An with his eyes.

When Mrs. An saw it, she slapped her thigh.

"I forgot to tell you, miss, this Chunxi is one of the two disciples I told you about."

While talking, Aunt An winked at Chunxi who came in.

After Mrs. An finished speaking, Chunxi put down the vegetable basket in her hand, saluted Xie Qingyu and said, "Slave Chunxi, I have met Miss."

"Get up, I just want to teach new dishes today, and you will learn by the side."

Xie Qingyu cried out, and asked again: "What about the other one, let's also call to see it."

After Chunxi stood up, she replied, "Miss, Chunhua is pounding wheat in the back, I'll call her right away."

Seeing Chunxi's back going out, Xie Qingyu remembered that she hadn't told anyone in the house about the stone mill.

However, should this thing be said?
She is a little confused now.

Originally, I wanted to let the stone grinder come out directly.

But now I want to make a fortune first.

Although it doesn't matter if others know about wheat flour, she knows more about how to eat.

But who can say no to making more money?
