MTL - Wonderful Life After Exchanging Fate-Chapter 10
Jiang Yunxiu and thirteen or fourteen girls were taken to a wing room in the backyard.
These girls ranged from thirteen to sixteen years old, and they all looked upright, with delicate features.
Jiang Yunxiu looked around and found that except for a girl with a red mole in the corner of her eye, she was the best among the group of people, and she was very happy.
At this time, there were footsteps outside, and a woman came in with a little maid.
That woman is worthy of being from the Marquis of Anping, she is actually wearing silk and satin, her wrists and head are shining with golden light.
The girls were both envious and apprehensive.
Mrs. Zheng looked at these girls one by one. Two of them were not bad, and the rest were just mediocre.
She began to assign people, "You two, go to the tea room. You three, go to the laundry room. You three, follow Guanshi Li and go to sweep the courtyard."
Finally, she came to the remaining few people, among them were Jiang Yunxiu and the girl with the red mole at the corner of her eye.
She paused for a moment, then turned her eyes to Jiang Yunxiu, that girl and another girl with a round face, and said, "You three go to the kitchen."
Then she went to assign the rest of the girls.
Jiang Yunxiu froze on the spot, asking her to go to the kitchen? She got it wrong!
She stared at Mrs. Zheng, her mind was empty, she thought she should serve Lin Ting'an.
Seven years later in the dream, Jiang Yunxiu and Jiang Yunzhu met again, and they only talked a few times. When Jiang Yunzhu talked about her past, she either brought it up briefly or reported good news but not bad news, so Jiang Yunxiu didn't know exactly how Jiang Yunzhu became the young wife of the Hou Fu, just like Jiang Yunzhu didn't know Xu Qingshan's past.
There were a total of fourteen girls, and they were basically assigned to various places as rough envoys. Some of these girls were quick-witted and inquired about the situation in the mansion, but when they heard that this was the result, they were very disappointed.
Who is Mrs. Zheng, her eyelashes are all empty, seeing this, she snorted coldly. These girls really thought they were flying up the branches! If it weren't for the lack of people in the mansion, they, whose backgrounds are unknown, could also enter the Hou's mansion?
Letting them do some rough work in the mansion is already cheap for them.
Jiang Yunxiu didn't finally believe that she was assigned to work in the kitchen until she came to the kitchen.
Along with her was the girl with a red mole at the corner of her eye, her name was Tian Ying, and another girl with a round face.
The kitchen in Anping Hou's Mansion is very large, and it is not the time to eat, so it is still relatively free here.
When Mrs. Zhou, who was in charge of the kitchen, saw the three of them, especially Jiang Yunxiu and Tian Ying, her face turned dark immediately.
It turned out that Mrs. Zhou's husband was the chef in the mansion. His surname was Gao, and his name was Gao Shun. He was good at cooking Huaiyang cuisine.
But this Gao Shun has a bad habit, he especially likes to hook up with women. Relying on his face in front of the Marquis of Anping, he has a relationship with several maids and women in the mansion.
For this reason, Mrs. Zhou fought with him a lot, but there was nothing she could do.
A few days ago, she told the manager of the house that there was a shortage of people in the kitchen, so she asked him to send a few honest and capable people over, but in the end they sent these three?
Looking at Jiang Yunxiu, with an expression of reluctance on her face, she looks like a vixen who wants to climb into the master's bed, and then at Tian Ying, her brows and eyes are full of coquettishness, she must be a little **** who can't live without a man, so she's left The next one is pretty pleasing to the eye.
It must be that Zheng Jinhuan had a hard time with her, and deliberately assigned her to these three people, wanting to see her jokes.
Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth secretly, wishing to tear Mrs. Zheng's face off.
"You three, what are you doing standing there and not working!" She vented all her anger on the three of them, angrily angrily yelled.
The three of Jiang Yunxiu just felt suffocated, what are they doing?
"Go wash the dishes, the dishes in the backyard are piled up like a mountain." Mrs. Zhou said.
The three of Jiang Yunxiu went to the backyard.
The kitchen has been short of people these days, and sure enough, those dirty dishes and bowls piled up like a hill.
Three people fetched water to wash dishes and dishes.
Autumn is already deep, the well water is very cold, and the plates and bowls are very greasy. After a while, Jiang Yunxiu's hands were soaked red and white. Not for washing dishes.
"Xiao Lang hoof, why don't you brush quickly, what are you doing in a daze. If you can't finish brushing, no one will want to eat tonight." Mrs. Zhou sat beside them and stared at the three of them.
Jiang Yunxiu remembered her, and when she became the young wife of the Hou family, she was asked to wash countless dishes, no, let her lick them clean one by one.
Thinking of all the ways to torment Mrs. Zhou in the future, she seems to feel much better and can persevere again.
After half an hour, a man came in from the corner door in the backyard. The man was tall and fat, but his eyes were not big.
He seemed to have just drank alcohol, and his body smelled of alcohol.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jiang Yunxiu and the three of them, and his eyes lit up immediately.
Jiang Yunxiu, fifteen years old, has almond eyes and peach cheeks, a girl like a flower. Tian Ying, who is one year older than her, has swaying eyebrows and eyes, especially the red mole under her eyes, which makes her even more charming.
"I still know how to come back. Hurry up and prepare things for the evening, and delay Lord Hou's dinner, let's see how you end up!" Mrs. Zhou said bitterly to the man.
The man is Gao Shun.
Gao Shun said impatiently, "You don't need to talk too much, just mind your own business."
After speaking, he glanced at Jiang Yunxiu and Tian Ying again before going into the kitchen.
He glanced at Jiang Yunxiu and felt extremely disgusted.
But Tian Ying gave Gao Shun an angry look. With that delicate appearance, it seems that she wants to refuse and welcome.
When Gao Shun was stared at by her, he only felt that his bones were ten catties lighter. If Mrs. Zhou wasn't present, he would have gone over to strike up a conversation immediately.
Zhou Pozi was talking to Gao Shun behind Jiang Yunxiu's back, but she didn't see Tian Ying's eyes, otherwise she would have stiffened immediately.
After a while, the kitchen started to get busy, she yelled at the three of them for a while, and went into the kitchen to get busy.
Finally able to catch her breath, Jiang Yunxiu pondered how to meet Lin Ting'an.
Beside, Tian Ying's eyes flickered, she didn't know what she was thinking.
Mrs. Chen knew that thinking about Jiang Yunxiu was impossible, so she fell asleep.
In the evening, when Jiang Cheng came back, he was very happy when he heard the news.
"Father, why don't you sell food with us and don't go to the mine." Jiang Yunzhu took the opportunity to tell him that she felt that going to the mine was not a good job. Not to mention occupational diseases such as dust disease and skin disease. Ancient mines did not have any safety protection measures, and it was easy to cause danger.
Jiang Cheng shook his head, he can also help the family now, wouldn't it be better to earn two shares?
Make money quickly and build a house of their own, then he will feel at ease.
Jiang Cheng, like the Chen family, loves money very much now. That's right, if they were rich, they wouldn't have to sell their daughter. If they were rich, they wouldn't need to wander in this foreign land at all, and they wouldn't need Jiang Yunzhu to get busy every day.
Seeing that Jiang Yunzhu couldn't be persuaded, he could only do so first. Wait a little longer, when the family earns more money, Jiang Cheng should be willing to pay the wages.
The next day, they went to the stall early, and today's business was better than yesterday, Chen was overjoyed from ear to ear.
After Chen Shi, the market became deserted, and they began to pack their things and prepare to go back.
Jiang Yunzhu opened the big casserole, only to see a piece of meat the size of a palm inside, thinking about whether to cook meat for everyone at noon. She is also very anxious to smell the stewed meat every day but not be able to eat it.
"Spicy meat!" A rough voice exploded in her ears.
When Jiang Yunzhu looked up, she saw a big head beside her at some point, and the chin of that head was full of beards.
It was him, that Deputy General Zhao, Jiang Yunzhu remembered him.
"Is this meat for sale?" Deputy General Zhao stared at the meat pot with bull's eyes.
"For sale." Jiang Yunzhu subconsciously said.
With two hearty laughs, Vice General Zhao randomly picked a stool and sat at a table behind.
"It's really delicious, boss, if you have anything to eat, just bring it up." Two soldiers followed behind him, one of them said.
Chen looks at these three people with anxiety, who are they? Also, the person in charge looks so fierce!
Jiang Yunzhu quickly fished out the meat, chopped it into pieces, stuffed it into the white cake, poured thick soup, and brought it to their table.
At this moment, Mrs. Chen also came to her senses, poured out the last two bowls of Hu spicy soup, and carefully brought it to Deputy General Zhao, saying timidly, "There are only two bowls of soup left." I'm afraid it's not enough for three people to share.
"I'm going to buy a bowl of mutton soup, that's my favorite." One of the soldiers stood up and went to the opposite stall to bring back a bowl of mutton soup.
Deputy General Zhao ignored him, picked up a meat pie and bit it down.
With his mouthful, less than half of a meat pie went away.
The soup is thick and smooth, and the minced meat is soft and mellow, which is a perfect match with this white cake.
After two more bites, a meat pie went straight into his stomach.
Pick up another one, three bites in two, and finish eating again.
After eating three in a row, he remembered that there was still soup, and gulped down a big mouthful of soup.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. This soup is an appetizer!
A mouthful of soup, a mouthful of meat pie, he ate like running water.
Five of the six meat pies went into his mouth. That bowl of soup was drunk even more.
Beside, the soldier carrying mutton soup suddenly felt that the soup in his hand was not fragrant.
