In the afternoon, the owner of the restaurant set up a new shop and brought three cocks to continue to cook with Xu Qingxue.
This afternoon, the boss made two chicken casseroles on his own, and the taste was very close to that of Xu Qing. By this time, it was 90% of what he had learned. Next, practice makes perfect.
The boss put the notebook in his arms and said with a happy smile: "I actually like chicken best. I can eat two pots at a meal if I do this!"
"It is..." The boss scratched his head. "In fact, your shop is much better than mine. Even if it's changed, I should give you money. As a result, you've paid an extra recipe. It's all your fault. I can't take such a big advantage in vain."
Then the boss took out a purse and solemnly put it in front of Xu Qing: "this is twenty-five taels of silver..."
"No Without waiting for the boss to finish, Xu Qing interrupted him and said, "if I don't teach you this dish, you don't want to exchange it with me. I don't feel at a loss. Put away the money."
Boss: "no, I..."
Xu Qing: "well, to tell you the truth, I'm the owner of qingtingfang. I changed it with you just because I like the environment around your shop. I don't lack this money. I should thank you for your success."
The boss was stunned, and suddenly patted his thigh and said, "Oh, I don't think you look familiar! So you are the Xu Qing
The boss was excited, and suddenly he felt shy and didn't know what to say. He bowed his head and giggled.
Xu Qing could see that the other party was an honest man, so he said, "when you are proficient in this chicken pot, I will teach you more complicated methods later."
"Good, good." The boss didn't understand what Xu Qing was saying. When he heard what she was saying, he immediately responded.
When he left the yard, the boss remembered what he had just promised. Suddenly, there was wind under his feet, and he went back to tell his wife the good news.
The reconstruction is watched by Li Changting's people. Xu Qing is free. The next day, he takes Shen Yan to the hope Academy in the suburbs to recruit some primary school students.
Shen Yan has been approved by Shen Zhou to become an apprentice in qingtingfang. He is about the same age as Ping'an. The three of them got together on their way here. Now Shen Yan is very happy for him to stay.
In other words, two years ago, there was no college in Shengzhou to adopt orphans. It is said that Fu Xitang donated the college with money. Later, some rich businessmen in Shengzhou also followed suit and donated money or materials to the college every year.
Soon the imperial court sent people to take over the college, making it a reasonable and legal public college from a private one. These kind-hearted people in Shengzhou were also praised.
But because Shengzhou has a small population, there are not many orphans. When Xu Qing inquired from Fu Xitang, he heard that there are only about 300 children in the Academy. It is said that at least half of these children are not orphans, but most of them are girls who were born in or after the natural disaster and could not afford to be abandoned.
The imperial court doesn't feel worthless because most of them are girls. It's important to know how many poor girls have died in a natural disaster. Often, the weak women in a family are the first to be abandoned.
In a few years, there will be many men who can't find their wives. In the army, there are many strong single men who enjoy the subsidy from the imperial court with military pay.
The carriage arrived at the gate of the Academy. Because it had said hello in advance, people from the Academy quickly helped to move things in.
The content of the assessment is the same as that in Hezhou City. There are not many people, so it's finished in half a day.
The five children who passed are girls, aged between 13 and 16. These children still don't know what it means to be apprentices in qingtingfang. Generally, few people will hire girls as apprentices, because girls have to get married when they are old, and the skills they learn are cheap to others.
At first, the five girls thought that Xu Qing was a servant girl who could make cakes.
After packing and leaving the college, she followed the young lady into the city and came to an elegant house. Several girls consciously began to look for work.
One of the reasons for this illusion was that there were too few servants in the house. The two little brothers who followed the lady to recruit were dressed so respectably, but they were doing the cleaning work.
Xu Qing went to the kitchen and asked the cook to cook more good dishes. By the way, he ordered the menu for this period of time, so that the five girls who were too skinny could make up for themselves. It's hard work to make cakes.
When she went back and walked in the corridor, she saw that five girls not far away were scrubbing and washing. She nodded unconsciously with satisfaction. She couldn't stay idle for a while. She was really a diligent child.
It was only two days later that the five girls realized that they were apprentices, which was literally meant to be apprentices.
Xu Qing asked people to tidy up a room and began to teach these elementary school students who didn't know anything to make cakes.
In fact, Ping'an is mainly responsible for teaching. She added that after all, these apprentices will work with Ping'an.
It's very tiring to teach crafts and rules. Xu Qing has taught a group of new apprentices this year, so he doesn't want to participate here.Ping'an is the first time to come into contact with this kind of thing. They used to learn it, but now it's their turn to teach others. The feeling of turning over and apprentice singing makes them full of energy.
After wondering for a while, the five little girls soon realized that they really came to be apprentices, and they had to go out to make cakes for the shop, so they immediately learned more seriously.
Even if they are half age children, they also know that people who have skills will not die of hunger. It will be of great benefit to them if they finish their studies in the future!
Xu Qing stares at them for two days. Seeing that Ping'an teaches very well, he confidently hands over the teaching to them.
On this day, Xu Qing, carrying a roast chicken and a basket of cakes, took the little dragonfly to Ji Lao's Doujiu hall to play.
Xu Qing is here to learn how to make wine. Ji is very welcome. Ji doesn't see Li Changting, so he doesn't have to ask where he is. Anyway, if he asks, he must have something to do. It's enough for him to have a new apprentice.
