The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 137 Mrs.

After Zhulan checked, she went to check the other rooms before returning to the main room. The cook came in with the food, "Madam, there are six dishes in total. I don't know if it suits Madam's taste. If not, I will Change it next time."

Zhulan saw that there were fish, meat, and chicken, and the six dishes were all delicious in color, fragrance, and smell. She checked the room and trusted Zhao Bo. The cook must be good, "Okay."

Seeing Madam's indifferent expression, the cook was a little apprehensive, she needed this job.

Zhulan tasted every dish twice. Although the cooking was not as delicious as Li's, it was still very good. "The taste is very good, you should eat it too!"

The cook's tone was weak, "I'll just eat the rest after Madam finishes eating."

Zhulan looked at the patched clothes of the cook, and understood that the cook didn't dare to eat too much, and she could only eat by herself and couldn't take it home. Zhulan and the child couldn't eat six dishes, so there must be a lot left After cleaning, the cook can not only eat enough for herself, but also bring some back. It is common for some cooks to bring leftovers home, "Go back to the kitchen and boil two large pots of hot water for later use. I will call you when the food is ready here. "

The cook was very happy. She had helped many people, and she was generous and picky. The wife was not unhappy about what she said just now. It was a tacit consent that she brought some leftovers home. She said in a happy tone, "Okay madam, I Just go get some hot water."

Ming Teng saw the outsider leave, and the little guy became lively, "Grandma, is this really our house? Our house has such a big house? And grandma, who was the person who served the dishes just now? Why is it called Mrs. Grandma?"

Ming Teng was in a daze, why did he change so much after coming to Pingzhou?

Zhulan looked at her grandson's eyes full of seeking knowledge, and said with chopsticks: "Of course this is our home. As for the aunt just now, she is the cook who was hired by grandma to help with cooking. As for the name, grandma is the mistress of the family, so naturally It’s time to address you as Ma’am, well, it’s enough for you to know these things when you’re too young, and you’ll understand the rest when you’re older, so hurry up and eat.”

Seeing that Ming Teng didn't ask any more questions, Zhu Lan was lucky to be resourceful, otherwise Ming Teng would have asked why endlessly.

Ming Teng is young and he loves to eat, so he soon focused on the food.

Xuehan is eight years old, and she came to Pingzhou for the second time, and felt that the family was completely different. When her father became a scholar, she would be a scholar's daughter. If her father went further, she would be the young lady of Juren, and there would be a cook at home to help , she adapted very well.

After dinner, the children were warmed up, Zhulan asked Xuehan to take out the quilt cover and take it back to the guest room, and change the quilt cover herself, as the quilt she brought home was no longer needed.

Zhulan followed the cook to the kitchen in the backyard. Today, the fire is in the backyard kitchen. Hot water is burning in the pot, the rice and noodle tanks are full, the radish and cabbage are placed in the basket, and the dishes and bowls in the cupboard Quite a few, all kinds of kitchen utensils are complete, silently calculated an account, these are the money that Zhao Bo paid in advance, and it is roughly estimated that they will be returned to Zhao Bo.

Zhulan and the children had a lot of food left over, the chicken was barely eaten, and half of the meat and vegetables were left, because there were very few fish in winter, and the fish was very clean. The untouched chicken and the most leftover braised pork are eaten tomorrow, and the few remaining fried liver and meat slices are given to the cook. The cook didn't eat them, so she put them in a bowl and took them home to eat together. .

The cook, Mrs. Li, was kind because she didn't pick the bamboo orchids, so she worked harder and even cleared the snow in the yard after finishing the kitchen work.

Zhulan felt embarrassed, seeing that it was getting late, the front yard was still open, and there was no end to eating in a while.
