Chapter 418： Divide the cake

In addition, two families were bought, two women and two girls, who took over for the two of them and worked in the big kitchen.

The man and the servant temporarily handed over the housekeeper to the housekeeper to assign the work, and the delivery can be arranged at that time. There happened to be a scooter at home.

The cake room also asked the housekeeper to find someone to repair it, and made four stoves. The wall at the door was made a whole wide desk, which was convenient for the cakes to be poured on top after they came out of the oven.

After the first pot came out, Sister Jiang and the housekeeper-in-law looked at Pei Xiu nervously.

This is the first time they have done it alone, and they used to do it for the lady before.

Pei Xiu asked each of the three children to try one for them to evaluate.

The third child: "I think it's a little sweet."

Boss: "Is it your illusion? I think it's almost the same, delicious."

The second child: "I also think it's similar to what my mother did. It's delicious."

Pei Xiu also took one and tried it out. It was a little sweet, not obvious, but it was okay.

She smiled and nodded to the two of them: "Well done, remember the ratio just now, and continue to make the batter. If the business is good this month, I will give you additional monthly money next month."

The two were overjoyed and said gratefully, "Thank you madam, this is what slaves should do."

"Well, go ahead and do it. You have to do 11,000 tonight. It's hard work for you."

"It's not hard work, the slaves are very happy to relieve the worries of the madam and the young masters, then the slaves will do things first."

"Um."

Pei Xiu said to the three brothers again, "Go back to do your homework when you're done eating, go to bed earlier, and get up earlier tomorrow."

After she waited for the second pot to come out, she tasted it, and when there was no problem, she went to coax Mai to sleep.

It's really that Sister Li can't handle wheat. After the child was coaxed to sleep, he woke up and found that she was not there, crying and trying to find her.

Sister Li had to coax her and let Ginkgo come over to find her.

I don't know how long the two chefs managed to make more than 10,000 cupcakes.

She coaxed the child to sleep last night and got up again. The amount she needs tomorrow is too much, and she is a little worried.

I went to the kitchen to watch them for a while and they adjusted the ratio.

Early the next morning, when the three brothers got up, so did she.

I found that these three were not doing good morning exercises, so they went to the kitchen together.

She patted the three of them behind her, "Have you washed up, and are you still not going to squat? I'll watch the kitchen, and I'll take it to the academy for you all, don't worry."

"Let's just take a look. There's a lot today. Are we in a hurry? Don't be late." The boss frowned and looked at the cakes full of long cases, a little worried.

"You first count out the larger number, and put them in baskets. The rest can only be counted at the gate of the academy, and there are not many baskets at home. If you can't divide them all, you can collect them after school."

Pei Xiu doesn't have any good suggestions either. It costs money to use ten pieces of white cotton cloth.

It's too late to judge.

It may be possible to wait for the opening. If you don't have a basket, you can wrap it in a cut white cotton cloth and add an extra two cents.

This is a good way, there are always people passing by who need it.

"Okay, mother, help us put it in the bamboo basket first, and we'll come and count later."

Pei Xiu asked the two cooks who were waiting, "How long did you guys do last night? Why did you come here so early today?"

"When the last basket came out of the pot, it seemed like it was after midnight. We remembered the lady's confession and locked the door."

"Then I only rested for two hours. I'll go back to rest later. I'm not busy today."

The housekeeper's daughter-in-law smiled and said, "We're afraid that the new cook doesn't know where the kitchen things are, so come and help, but we can't delay the masters' breakfast."

"Well, then you teach them first, then go to rest, wait for the application to go to work, and watch the new arrivals."

"Yes, ma'am."

Pei Xiu summoned the two little girls who were arranged in the cake room, "Can you count? Help me count the cakes and put them in the bamboo basket."

A bolder maid said with a blushing face, "Madam, the slaves will only count to twenty. If there are more, the slaves will be confused."

Another maid also said, "So does the slave maid."

She was depressed, the ancient times were so backward, most of them were illiterate, and the common people couldn't even count the simplest counts.

Tomorrow, let the housekeeper teach the number of servants in the family, and count while working, without delay.

You don't have to know the words, but you must know how to count, from one to one hundred, and you should be able to read them a few times.

Maybe it’s because the amount of money in the hands is too little. As long as the country people don’t get sick, don’t build a house, or get a wife, they can’t use a few money all year round.

She said helplessly: "Then I'll count a bunch of them, and you can put them in the frame one by one, and don't break them."

"Yes, ma'am."

Pei Xiu only counted five by five, and when she counted to one hundred, she put the two little girls into the frame.

They have been busy all the time, until the three brothers finished their morning exercise and came to help after taking a shower, and then they speeded up.

After they were all filled, they went to eat breakfast.

Today Zhou Shan, Zhou Yi, and Xiao Jiu all came over in advance.

There were as many people as yesterday to get the cake, and today there are more reservations, and the number of people is several times higher than that of yesterday.

Zhou Shan brought ten guards today and came early, planning to help together later to speed up the process.

Put the baskets of cakes on the trolley and stack them up, otherwise they won't fit.

The two carriages were also full, and they also borrowed Zhou Yi and Xiao Jiu's carriages.

The two brothers Qingsong and Qingzhu were driving two carriages, while Ding Bo was pushing a full cart.

The three brothers had no place to sit, so they boarded Zhou Shan's carriage with Zhou Yi and Xiao Jiu.

As soon as they got to the gate of the academy, they got off the station and formed a line.

At this time, people have come to claim it one after another.

Smart people bring their own baskets today.

Otherwise, don't you want to dress up like yesterday~?

Today, I have experience. The three brothers are dividing the cake. Xiaojiu helps to draw the list. Whoever takes it will cross out the name.

Zhou Yi and the servants helped ten, counted ten, and handed them to the three brothers.

Zhou Shan took his guards to help maintain order and queue up to lead so that there would be no chaos.

The efficiency of division of labor and cooperation is still very high.

Yesterday, a lot of people heard the boss say that after school, they can go to the gate of the academy to accept reservations.

As a result, many people waited at the gate of the courtyard for a long time, and they didn't know they were fooled until everyone disappeared.

Seeing so many people picking up cakes again today, I got angry and shouted, "Didn't you say yesterday that you will accept reservations at the gate of the academy after school? Why do you let everyone's pigeons go?"

When Zhou Yong heard this, he was afraid of causing public anger, so he quickly stood on the trolley and said loudly, "I'm sorry, everyone, there are too many reservations for the classmates in the classroom, and I'm afraid that they won't be able to make them, so I didn't come here yesterday afternoon. Waiting at the gate of the academy. I'm sorry."
