Across the Market

Chapter 31

Thinking of this, Zhu Fu felt even happier, and she smiled and said: "I always like to do challenging things, it is precisely because of the good luck to welcome guests, and the reception of the Jingbin Building is cold, so I choose to come to the Jingbin Building. From Binlou. It’s good to add icing on the cake, but how can it be as precious as sending charcoal in the middle of the snow? Boss, can you give Li Dafat five taels of silver a month’s wages? If I’m lucky enough to stay, the boss will definitely not treat me badly. of."

"Okay... what a timely help..." Xiao Jingbin's eyes lit up, he looked at Zhu Fu as if he was looking at the savior, and even applauded, "Just for what you said just now, I, Xiao Jingbin, I will hire you to be the cook of Jingbin Building, and I will pay you five taels of silver a month."

"Cousin, she's just a yellow-haired girl, how can she drive five taels." This second rich man is Xiao Jingbin's distant nephew, who defected here at the beginning of the year, and has been working in the Jingbin Building since he came, although he often does the things he does in the hall. , but it is a second shopkeeper.

Now that the shopkeeper is gone, everyone thinks that Quan Erfu will replace him, and Quan Erfu himself is very confident.He wanted to share weal and woe with Jingbinlou, so that he could find an irreplaceable position, but now seeing that anyone in the boss's family can drive five taels, he couldn't help but feel a little crazy.

He thinks that three taels of silver a month is very good, but now that a little girl can get five taels a month, how can he be convinced?
Xiao Jingbin glanced at Quan Erfu, didn't speak, but said to Zhu Fu: "Little girl, it just so happens that there is no cook in Jingbin Building, so let you cook today's dishes?" While speaking, he stretched out a hand, Leading, "The kitchen is here, you come in."

From the beginning to the end, Shen Yuzhu didn't say a word, and when Zhu Fu successfully became the cook of Jingbin Building, she was so surprised that she didn't know what to say.

As if in a dream, is the girl in front of her still the timid girl she knew before?If she had no one to accompany her before, she wouldn't go out at all. I remember before, she was always clinging to Zhu Xi's side. She would go wherever Zhu Xi went, and she didn't like to talk. Why...

"Ah Fu, is this true?" Shen Yuzhu touched Zhu Fu's with her elbow, with uncontrollable joy on her face, she covered her face and smiled for a while, then whispered, "That's great , It’s great, Ah Fu, I’m so happy for you, little Ah Fu can earn money to support his family.”

Zhu Fu was also very excited at the moment, he never thought that being a foodie in his previous life would be beneficial.

Five taels of silver, if you get this five taels of silver, you can immediately ask your brother to pick up grandma into the city.At that time, it would be great to rent a house behind my own street, and the family will live together and take care of each other.

The kitchen of the Jingbin building is in the backyard, a room built by the river, and there are four windows in the kitchen. Zhu Fu thought that if he cooks in hotter weather in the future, he would open the windows and have a good view.The kitchen has all kinds of vegetables and vegetables, but Zhu Fu only plans to cook one dish today, and that is to make homemade tofu with Shen Yuzhu's dried tofu.

Someone had already brought in Shen Yuzhu's two buckets of tofu, and the person who carried the tofu was Xiao Paitang Adong who had just said he was going to leave.

Looking at Zhu Fu, Xiao Paitang felt a little guilty, but also had a flattering smile.

"Girl, do you really know how to cook? Your cooking skills are better than that of Chef Li?" This A Dong is not very old, he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is not tall. As tall as a jade bead, he squinted his eyes and smiled, "I won't leave, I will go through hardships with my master, and I feel at ease."

Zhu Fu asked Shen Yuzhu to light a fire, poured oil into the cauldron, first refined the oil, then bent down and fished out a piece of dried tofu from the wooden barrel, cut the dried tofu into diamond-shaped slices, and soaked it in the egg white Soak for a while, then take it out and fry it in a hot oil pan.

Only then did I have time to talk to A Dong: "Since you have made up your mind to stay, you must do things well. Only by doing your own duties well can the boss increase your salary." While talking, the rhombus The dried tofu has been fried to golden brown on both sides. When it is almost done, put the dried tofu on a plate and set aside.

The side dishes are pork, carrot, cucumber, onion and ginger.Pork, carrots, cucumber slices, onion and ginger shreds, and then stir-fry the side dishes one by one in order, and then add sugar and salt and other condiments... Before and after less than a cup of tea, a plate of golden homemade tofu is ready. it is done.

The smell in the kitchen is overflowing, and the smell is so sour that one's mouth is watering. A Dong is looking forward to the home-cooked food in Zhu Futuo's hands, and his eyes are straight.

In the past, he only knew that the dishes made by Chef Li were delicious when he tasted them, but it was the first time for him to feel delicious just looking at one dish. An ordinary home-cooked dish, but abalone in bird's nest.

Zhu Fu walked out of the kitchen with the dishes, Xiao Jingbin was sitting at the table outside, seeing Zhu Fu came out with the dishes, he smiled and said: "Bring me a taste."

Zhu Fu brought the dish to Xiao Jingbin and put it on his table. Xiao Jingbin looked at the dish with surprise in his eyes. He looked up at Zhu Fu, then took a piece of tofu with his chopsticks and ate it.Just as the tofu was about to enter his mouth, he widened his eyes with joy.
