The bought lady will farm

Chapter 22

"The Qian family?" Li Hongmei asked uncertainly.

"That's right, it's Qian's Mansion. Our master had a few friends here. The old slave bought some pancakes to satisfy his hunger that day. One of the masters smelled the smell and asked for a piece. Afterwards, he said that your pancakes taste delicious." That’s right, I’ve been thinking about it.”

The person in charge was also patient. Although his attitude was arrogant, the boss made it clear.

"Ask us to go, isn't it just to make pancakes?" Li Hongmei looked at the manager with a smile, and never looked at the ingot of silver in his hand.It was as if she didn't care about this ingot of silver.Such a calm and self-cultivated appearance made Steward Qian look at him with admiration.In this small town in the countryside, it is really rare to see a woman with such a magnanimity.

Er Ya also took a deep breath, she felt that compared with her sister-in-law, she was so restless.However, I really can't blame her for this, who knows, that person is two taels of silver ingots every time he makes a move.

"You're right. Our young master has been running a business outside with the adults since he was a child. Those young masters from outside are also people who are used to eating delicious food outside. This person came back to this small place in the country, next to him. Everyone can get used to it, but in terms of diet, I'm really not used to it. If you can serve our young masters and masters well, it will definitely benefit you." Steward Qian looked smug, and promised Make a big promise.

However, Li Hongmei folded her arms with a sneer and raised her eyebrows.

"Oh, serving? I'm sorry, although we are only small businessmen, we are not other people's maids. As for the job of serving, I really don't know how to do it. As for the benefits you always talk about Forgive me, little lady, for my short-sightedness. It’s not uncommon for a little lady to pay lip service to benefits that aren’t actually promised. It might be a little better if we agree on benefits in advance.”

She spit out these two suggestions without saying a word, which really stunned Guanshi Qian.

He showed his anger at first, but immediately shook his head, "I don't care about you, a country woman. However, your concerns are also right. What I call serving is actually just following the tongue Here, I can assure you that if you go to my Qian’s house, you will be temporarily hired cooks. No one in the house can order you. As for the wages? How about a tael of silver if the dish is satisfactory to both the master and the young master?"

The onlookers gasped again.

You know, if this dish is satisfactory, it will be worth a tael of silver.

Three meals a day.

If you cook two or three dishes every day and teach those nobles to eat to their satisfaction, wouldn't it mean that you will have a dozen or so taels of rewards a day?How could this little woman be in such a good situation.All of a sudden, several women who could order food were short of breath, and stared at Li Hongmei very excitedly, as if she would strongly recommend her to leave if she refused.

Rao Erya, who wanted to learn to be calm, also stared at Li Hongmei nervously at this moment.Sister-in-law, hurry up and agree.

"Yes, but if I'm cooking, please don't let others tell me what to do. Also, if the manager is interested in my methods, we can discuss how to do it later. !"

Er Ya'er and San'er were amazed again, the sister-in-law was smiling like a fox.However, her calculations are really good.

The people around nodded frequently, "Fang Zi, it seems that this woman knows a lot."

"Yes." Qian Guanshi was a little dissatisfied.This woman felt greedy and boundless.She really thinks that the things she made have fallen into the eyes of several masters?
Hmph, the young master is notoriously picky.It is extremely difficult for this woman to deal with the young master.I still want to sell prescriptions, and I don't care how much I own.

"That's fine, let's go, the ones in charge. Xiaoer, Saner, follow behind my sister-in-law, and don't walk around when you are not allowed to move around. There is one more thing to remember. After entering Qian's house in a while, your Eyes, don’t look around. Don’t look, don’t walk, don’t talk, just these three things, can you do it?”

With a big gate, it is said that there are many things to do and many rules.Therefore, Li Hongmei had to tell the siblings more.

San'er and Xiao Eryi heard that they were really going to Qian's house, and they were very excited right now.Nodding vigorously at the moment, "Sister-in-law, we will listen to you, three things are not chaotic. Let's remember."

Xiao San'er was sticking out her chicken breasts, with a serious expression on her face.

The little erya was affected, and she also straightened her small body, staring straight at the thing in her hand, as if nothing else could attract her.

Seeing such siblings, Li Hongmei smiled faintly.Obedient children have sweets, and she likes these two little guys.

Guanshi Qian didn't say anything, but he walked and watched all the way.

Hearing that the three are not chaotic, he was also taken aback.He was still thinking, when he arrived at Qian's house in a while, he would give these three people some instructions.But who would have thought that the little woman would immediately be in peace, saving him the trouble of talking.

How does this woman know so much?

As he was walking, Guanshi Qian began to observe the woman beside him when he was free.

After a closer look, it became even more astonishing.

Generally speaking, when country women see people from big families like them, they will be very embarrassed, and they dare not raise their heads when they walk.

But this little woman not only raised her head high, but also smiled confidently.The calm and calm steps and the confident smile made him believe for no reason that with the presence of this woman, maybe the affairs in his house could really be resolved.

More importantly, this woman has no awareness at all, she is a country person.He was only one step behind him and followed him closely. If he took a step faster, the woman would also take a step faster.But from beginning to end, she was only one step behind.

In other words, in terms of etiquette, women are very strict.

But, she has the confidence of a woman like us!With this kind of demeanor, even the ladies and wives of many rich families can't be as confident and casual as she is.

But this woman, she seems to be born like this.

Then look at the two children following the woman.

Although the footsteps are hurried, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, the obvious breath is not stable.At first glance, it seems that he has never seen a serious person in the world.However, the two children could keep following the woman and never go beyond the front line.Obviously, they are also two well-educated children.What kind of family would raise such a few weirdos? Are these really from the countryside?

In fact, the manager really thought too much.

Li Hongmei will never act deliberately.

She is a free person in modern times, a person who came from a prosperous age without slaves or servants.You can't expect her to squirm.

As for etiquette, although she loves to take advantage of others and cheat others, there is still some family education.After all, the two antique grandparents at home when I was young were really not good at etiquette.

In this way, he observed all the way, walked all the way quickly, and arrived at Da Qian's house in a short while.

Seeing the two big bronze lions sawn in front of the door, Li Hongmei had only one feeling: she could be regarded as seeing the big lions that belonged to the symbols of ancient times.If it can be exchanged for money for her, how much money does this lion have to have.

Compared to her who just glanced appreciatively, Er Ya'er and San'er were dumbfounded.

It was the first time for them to see such a majestic lion.That mighty and fierce appearance made the siblings a little intimidated.

But when he saw Li Hongmei stepping in calmly, he calmed down quickly.As my sister-in-law said, once you enter Qian's house, you will not be chaotic, and you can't embarrass your sister-in-law.

Thinking about it this way, the two little guys put on a serious face, held their fists together, raised their heads and chest out together, followed Li Hongmei's pace, straightened their bodies step by step and walked inside.

Li Hongmei inadvertently turned her head and saw the unusually serious faces of the two little things, as well as their martyrlike footsteps, and their beautiful red lips were lightly raised.These two little things... are really cute.

On the way, Manager Qian was a little worried.But after seeing that this family is really stable, I feel relieved.It seems that with this woman around, he doesn't have to worry about these people provoking the nobles and masters in the mansion.

"Here, this is our kitchen. If you need anything, you can tell that cook Li. As long as the ingredients are not too excessive, we can find them. As for your food, you can also cook it in our house Eat. Chef Li will tell you then."

In the kitchen, there are several cooks, a big cook, and three odd jobs.The big chef stood there arrogantly, when he saw Li Hongmei, he rolled his eyes, showing disdain.

The two cooks also looked familiar.Obviously, during this period of time, the Qian family has recruited a lot of people from outside.

"Forget it. I need to understand the situation first before trying to cook the second dish. This is the chef of your courtyard. I want to ask the chef a few questions first. I don't know if the person in charge has any opinions?"

The big chef looked so proud, Li Hongmei was really afraid that he would not cooperate.Therefore, while the manager didn't leave, he quickly asked with a smile.

"Yes." The steward looked at the haughty chef, and frowned inadvertently.This great chef is becoming less and less useful, if it weren't for the fact that he was personally introduced by the second wife... I really don't want to use him.

"Chef Fu, just cooperate with this new cook and answer her questions truthfully."

When Chef Fu heard this, although he was unwilling, he still nodded reluctantly, glanced at Li Hongmei sullenly, and urged impatiently, "Whatever you want to ask, just ask, don't be so trembling." One glance is in charge.

Li Hongmei saluted, raised her head and smiled.

"I just want to know what kind of dishes the chefs have made in the past few days, and how the masters of your courtyard reacted. Also, at what point are they delivered, is there something special about it? ?”
