After Zhulan checked it, she went back to the main room after checking the other rooms. The cook came in with the food, "Ma'am, there are six dishes in total. I don't know if it suits Madam's taste. Change it next time."

Zhulan saw that there were fish, meat, and chicken. The six dishes were full of flavors and aromas. The smell was delicious. She checked the room and trusted Zhao Bo very much. The cook must be good. "Okay."

The cook was a little uneasy when she saw Madam's indifferent expression, she needed this job.

Zhulan tasted each dish twice. Although it was not as delicious as Li's, it was quite good. "It tastes good, you can eat it together!"

The cook's tone became weak, "I'll just eat the rest when Madam is ready."

Zhulan looked at the patched clothes of the cook, and she understood. The cook didn't dare to eat too much when she brought it to the table, and she could only eat it herself and couldn't bring it home. Zhulan and her children couldn't eat six dishes, so there must be a lot left. , after cleaning up, the cooks can not only eat their own food, but also take some home with them. It is common for some cooks to bring leftovers home, "You go back to the kitchen to boil two large pots of hot water for backup, and when you're done eating here, I'll call you. "

The cook was very happy. She has helped many people, and she is generous and stingy. The lady was not unhappy with what she said just now. It was the default that she brought some leftovers home, and said in a happy tone, "Okay lady, I am here. Just get hot water."

Ming Teng saw that the outsider was gone, and the little guy was lively, "Grandma, is this really our home? We have 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 stunned, why did he change so much after he came to Pingzhou?

Zhulan looked at her grandson's eyes full of curiosity, and said with chopsticks: "This is of course our home, as for the aunt just now, that is the cook that grandma invited to help with cooking. As for the name, grandma is the mistress of the family, naturally It's enough to be called Mrs. Well, you are too young to know these, and the rest will be understood when you are older, so hurry up and eat."

When Zhulan saw Ming Teng, she stopped asking. Fortunately, she was witty, otherwise Ming Teng would have kept asking why.

Ming Teng is not very old and he likes to eat, so he quickly focused on the food.

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

After dinner, the children were all warm. Zhulan asked Xuehan to take out the quilt and take it back to the wing. She changed the quilt herself. As for the quilt she brought home, she could not use it.

Zhu Lan followed the cook to the kitchen in the backyard. Today was the backyard kitchen. There was hot water in the pot. The rice and noodle tanks were full. There are quite a few, all kinds of kitchen utensils are complete, and a silent calculation is made. These are the silver money that Zhao Bo paid in advance, and it is roughly estimated that it will be returned to Zhao Bo.

Bamboo orchid and the children had a lot of leftovers from their meals. They didn’t eat much chicken, and half of the meat dishes were left over, because there were very few fish in winter, and the fish was very clean. The main food was white rice. The chicken that hasn't been touched very much and the braised pork that has the most leftovers will be eaten tomorrow. The remaining fried liver and sliced ​​meat are all given to the cook. The cook didn't eat it, so I packed it in a bowl and took it home to eat. .

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

Zhulan was embarrassed. Seeing that it was getting late, the front yard was still closed, and she couldn't finish her food for a while.
