[Red Mansion] A little chef came to the Grand View Garden

Chapter 14 The 8 Delicate Cakes That Went Off Track

Feng'er looked at Liu Mei, and said with a smile, "Did you forget that the dim sum made from the materials of the big kitchen should be honored to Second Grandma Lian to some extent!"

Liu Mei nodded like a chicken pecking rice—how dare she forget this BOSS.

It's just that Liu Mei turned her head to look at Xi Ren, seeing that she had stopped the silver spoon in her hand, she couldn't help yelling in her heart that it's a pity.But dealing with Wang Xifeng right now is the most important thing, Liu Mei knows the severity, immediately winks at the attacker, reminding her to continue eating, then carrying the food box and the portion of crispy cheese reserved for Wang Xifeng, followed Feng'er to Wang Xifeng's yard past.

Wang Xifeng should have been up for quite a while at this time, probably because the affairs of the mansion have also been taken care of for a while.When Feng'er took Liu Mei to Sister Feng's room, Sister Feng was having tea, and a well-dressed maid beside her was reading the account book to her.

Feng'er didn't speak, Liu Mei didn't dare to move.The big maid finished reading all the account books one by one, and Sister Feng nodded before retreating.

Sister Feng then asked Feng'er, "Are you done?"

Feng'er nodded and said, "That's it." Then, she took out a cup of sugar-steamed crispy cheese that Liu Mei specially left for Sister Feng from the food box.

Sister Feng gently dialed it with a small silver spoon, tasted it twice, put it aside, and said, "It's really good! It's sweeter than the rice porridge with milk paper sugar this morning. It's rare that you had that kind of rice porridge yesterday." Confidence. Hold your head up!"

Liu Mei raised her head according to her words, and looked at the beauty in front of her.

Sister Feng is wearing homely clothes at the moment, but a rose-purple gold gourd-patterned gown, a lake-blue beaded forehead and no more jewelry.Seeing Sister Feng's indifferent eyes, Liu Mei felt a little cold in her heart.

Sister Feng, is such a shrewd person not suspicious at all?A little girl born at home, at such a young age, can actually cook food from the palace so well?

"Tell Lin Zhixiao's family, just tell me what I said, there is no special reason, just kick this girl out."

Liu Mei turned pale with shock, but she was never used to being such a soft persimmon—even if her boss in the workplace made a conclusion, she still had to ask clearly: "Second Grandma Lian, may I ask what I did wrong? I was innocently punished yesterday. I was burdened by people, and I was forced to make this sugar-steamed shortbread. I have already made it today, and I have neither embarrassed my superiors nor embarrassed Second Master Bao, so why do I still have to be kicked out?"

What Liu Mei cares about is not whether she will be kicked out, but whether she will be kicked out unfairly.The latter is what she really can't stand.

When Sister Feng heard that she was eloquent, she said such a word in a fit of anger, her eyes sparkled slightly.But at this moment, she just looked down at her nails, as if to see if the bright balsam sap on her fingers was evenly dyed.

"Bold," Sister Feng didn't say anything, but Feng'er beside her said, "What grandma said, you don't have the right to say it."

"Why don't I have a place to talk?" Liu Mei was most annoyed at this kind of behavior of beating people to death with a stick, and not allowing people to utter a few words before dying, "Am I not the person involved?"

Feng'er didn't understand what "participants" meant, so she didn't pick up the conversation all of a sudden.

I only heard Liu Mei say angrily: "So, if you are the master in the mansion, can you not keep your word and go back on your word?" Even if it is a boss, it will lose people's hearts!

"Second Grandma Lian, I'm not the kind of person who can talk big. You have witnessed what happened yesterday from beginning to end. What is right and what is wrong, I believe that a shrewd person like you should have a clue in his heart." Liu eyebrows straightened Standing in front of Sister Feng, she almost patted her chest, "You kicked me out today, hehe...you will understand in a few days, your loss, and the loss of this mansion...how big it is!"

Liu Mei thought that she would be kicked out anyway, so she simply said some harsh words.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Sister Feng slowly raised her eyes, "Are you capable?"

Liu Mei thought that Sister Feng was mocking her, but after listening to the tone carefully, she realized that Sister Feng was actually asking her: Do you really have any great abilities?

"I can bear it!"

Liu Mei answered Sister Feng's words with a very firm tone.

Sister Feng's eyes became brighter, and she turned to Feng'er and said, "Take her down, and among those things, ask her to pick one she can do."

It was only then that Liu Mei realized that just now, Sister Feng really just gave her an insult, in order to arouse her fighting spirit, so that she could measure her true level!

So...he shouldn't be kicked out?

Feng'er responded, and before Liu Mei, she opened the curtain and left Sister Feng's room.Liu Mei slowly followed behind Feng'er.

Unexpectedly, the moment Liu Mei was about to leave the house, Sister Feng suddenly said sadly behind her, "You are young and have never seriously studied cooking, but you are born with good cooking skills and know how to make dim sum in the palace. I'm afraid it's either a monster or a monster..."

Liu Mei frowned, and took a breath of cold air, she only felt that the cold hairs on the vest stood up one by one at this moment.

As expected of Sister Feng!I'm afraid she has already checked with that cheap mother of hers.Sister Feng probably already knew everything about her.

"...But don't worry. If you are really incompetent, I will kick you out. For a person like you, I really don't want to lose."

Sister Feng's words changed slightly, and when she finished speaking, there was already a hint of pity in her tone.

Oh my god, Liu Mei thought, Sister Feng is probably the most caring person she has ever met in her life.Look at her, she has only seen Sister Feng for a short while, Sister Feng is pulling and hitting, hitting and pulling, after two rounds, she has already respected and feared Sister Feng, and feels that if Sister Feng is really her immediate boss, she will definitely be taken care of. You have to die, you won't be able to have the slightest disagreement in this life.

Thinking of this, Liu Mei quickly turned around, knelt at Sister Feng, and then backed out.

——I have to think of a trick, and I can't let Sister Feng stare at me and ask myself away from Baoyu;

At this moment, Liu Mei felt for the first time how gentle, considerate, and tolerant Mr. Jia Baoyu was as a direct superior.

Feng'er led her around a corner, and seemed to come to the back of the big kitchen.The furnishings inside were exactly the same as when Liu Mei came to pick up the pastry ingredients last night, but most of the people inside were servants, but they were not the wives of the servants she had seen yesterday.

This... is she in the real big kitchen of Jia's mansion?

Feng'er took out a book from the booklet hanging on the wall, turned to a page, and said to Liu Mei: "You pick something out of here, and then make it here - just tell them what materials you need," Feng'er pointed to the cooks in the big kitchen and said.

"Can you read?" Feng'er was also kind, seeing Liu Mei staring at the booklet, she asked, "Do you want me to read it out?"

Liu Mei smiled and shook her head.

She looked down one by one according to what was written in the booklet, and saw that most of them were Qing court desserts known to later generations, such as mincemeat cake, bergamot cake, golden shredded wheat, sesame cheese, purple jade cold cake... …

None of the dishes mentioned in the Red Chamber!

Liu Mei thought about it intently, but really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Sister Feng's gourd.

"Pippi..."

Just as Liu Mei wanted to summon her system, she suddenly felt something was wrong, so she quickly changed her words: "Brother System, what is going on?"

These are not the snacks that were clearly recorded in the original book of the Red Chamber, why did they suddenly appear in front of her eyes, and became a test question to test her skills and decide whether she would be kicked out?

"This is an additional task, you have to be careful. If you fail, you will be reduced to level 0, nameless helper."

Mother hey!After working on it for a long time, this is an additional task. The steamed cheese with sugar last night is nothing!

"Yes, last night's task of steaming pastry cheese with sugar was just an ordinary task."

Liu Mei was furious, "What!"

It was well said at the beginning, she would be able to return to her own life after eating all the time in the Red Mansion.But now why did these come out inexplicably.

"It was you who applied to change the upgrade path, so there are additional tasks." The tone of the system was a little innocent.

What?Liu Mei was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.She applied to change the upgrade route?Who was it that wanted to upgrade her to "the person in Baoyu's room"?

"Aren't you unable to finish?"

The system responded indifferently.

Liu Mei was just like what he said, she didn't dare to boast that she knew all of these Qing court dim sum, but most of them had been studied carefully.Because the dim sum handed down from the Qing court, especially those that existed in the early Qing Dynasty, is of great help to the study of the diet of the Red Chamber.Since Liu Mei is obsessed with the food of the Red Mansion, she has naturally cooked a lot.

Liu Mei was taken aback, she didn't expect the Pippi Shrimp System to have such confidence in her.

In reality, Feng'er was also asking: "Liu Mei, what are you going to do?"

Liu Mei weakly pointed at the last one, and said, "Just this one!"

"Bazhen Cake?" Feng'er was also taken aback, "There is one thing you need to know, the dim sum listed on this list, grandma is very delicate. If you can make it, it goes without saying that the taste is good. There is nothing wrong with ingredients and ingredients.”

Bazhen Cake is a famous therapeutic pastry of the Qing Dynasty. It is made of eight materials: Codonopsis pilosula, Poria cocos, Atractylodes macrocephala, lotus seeds, barley, Gorgon seed, yam, and white lentils.The process is complicated, but if it is done well, it can invigorate the spleen and nourish qi, soothe the nerves and improve eyesight. In addition, it is sweet and soft, and the taste and curative effect are all outstanding.

However, Liu Mei chose this Bazhen cake, but it was not because of this.

To make Bazhen cake, you need to grind and sift all the ingredients one by one, then add rice flour, season with sugar, and then steam it in a pot, which takes a lot of work.

But Liu Mei wanted to take this opportunity to sort out all the things in her heart.

She instinctively felt that something was wrong with Wang Xifeng.

Liu Mei saw Wang Xifeng for the first time since last night——Wang Xifeng's shrewdness, sophistication, pungentness, and even decisiveness are all exactly as Liu Mei imagined.But Liu Mei always felt something was wrong.

Just like this big kitchen, the cooks who respect Feng'er, the palace dessert list in the kitchen, the Bazhen cake that has never appeared in the Red Mansion, and Sister Feng's kindness and power to win over the servants...

Sister Wang Xifeng, what exactly are you trying to do?

The author has something to say: After reading some comments, I can't help but want to gossip.The heroine made pastry before, one was forced by the situation, the other was provoked by others, and the third was also angered by Shi Shi and others.But here, the hostess can clearly feel that Sister Feng has already noticed that something is wrong with her (because she thinks that something is wrong with Sister Feng), so the hostess also decided not to hide her clumsiness here, because it is unnecessary.As for the matter of literacy, the hostess revealed it to Sister Feng's personal servant girl knowing that Sister Feng had already figured out her details, and it was also for the purpose of not wanting to hide her clumsiness.After all, only those who have the ability can stay in the mansion to complete the task.

Therefore, the author really disagrees with the saying that the heroine is dead.It may be that the author's writing ability is limited and he can't express it very clearly, but for some comments, the author can only say that maybe the next book can write an article like "The heroine has been dying", but this one, I'm sorry, That's it.
