(Feng Jiang Lei's POV)

I wander around the manor and find myself in the kitchen. Chefs and kitchen servants are busy preparing food for lunch time. And the scene in front of me made me remember how I usually stand at the side to supervise my employees the very first time that I established a restaurant. Oh how I miss having a restaurant!

"Young miss? Why are you here?" One of the servants recognized me, which made everyone stop what they are doing and stare at me

"Oh, I am only here to watch people work in the kitchen" I answered politely

"Good morning young miss, I am the head chef, Shen Jun how can I help you?" A smiling man in his sixties greeted me, which gained a great sense of respect from me.

"Good morning chef Shen, may I trouble chef Shen a little? I am hoping that you can lend me some of the kitchen wares, I want to cook something for my grandfather."

"Oh such a small matter, this way please"

He led me into an inner room with the finest kitchen equipment. Wow!

"This used to be the madame's private workplace, it hasn't been used for long. And since the miss took a liking to cooking, this should be rightfully given to you as instructed by the madame" he smiled

"The madame?" I asked

"The patriarch's wife, Madame Jiu. Before she passed away she had given several instructions for the kitchen, and only you have the right to access her written documents which includes recipes and inherit everything you see in this kitchen" I nodded, awesome!

After admiring the view of the kitchen and inspecting my grandmother's collections I finally decided to cook. Chef Shen went out to supervise the kitchen while I started making a loin of pork dijonnaise which is good for seven people. I start scoring the skin of the pork with a sharp knife. I take off the skin and half the layer of fat underneath it in one piece. Putting it on a baking tray and cook it for 25 minutes till it becomes crispy and crunchy. Next, I work on the breadcrumbs together with the sage. Adding on some salt.

I spread mustard all over the layer of fat left on the pork, press the breadcrumb mixture and coat the whole meat. Next I'll roast it, do the plating and have add on dishes at the side. And when everything was done I told the chef to serve it with the rest of the dishes.
