Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 220

The little maid saw that Xia Junyan's face turned cold all of a sudden, and she didn't dare to say anything.The cooks in the mansion originally planned to show off their skills at this small banquet, but Madam unexpectedly brought back a country cook from outside.Everyone was a little unhappy, but they didn't expect Mrs. Zhao to throw face in front of her.These little maids are soft-spoken, and they only hope that the great gods on both sides will fight, so don't sweep them in.

"I see." Xia Junyan nodded.He strode up to another cook, Hu Shi, who was cooking, and said, "Miss Zhao is not feeling well, you help her cook that steamed sea bass."

When Mrs. Hu heard this, she didn't know Mrs. Zhao's tricks, but why did she let her take over her work.Just about to resign, Xia Junyan said: "I just saw Mrs. Zhao doing well before. Why did she suddenly have diarrhea? Could it be that she has some kind of emergency! Such a person can't enter the kitchen again, if he is not afraid of ten thousand, he will be afraid of ten thousand." One, if something happens to me, I can't afford it, what about you?"

Before Xia Junyan came, Mrs. Zhao was a celebrity in the kitchen.In the final analysis, Xia Junyan was only invited here temporarily, and she will naturally be there after today is over.Mrs. Zhao is used to being No.1, and she felt that Madam invited someone from outside to slap her in the face.Mrs. Hu originally wanted to decline, but Xia Junyan actually said that Mrs. Zhao had diarrhea, which is a taboo for those who work in the kitchen!Taking advantage of this matter to drive Miss Zhao down, after Xia Junyan leaves, won't she be No. 1 in this dining room?
Mrs. Hu hurriedly smiled and said, "Miss Xia is absolutely right. Since the Zhao family is not feeling well, let's rest quickly. I'll kill the fish right away, so I'm sure there won't be any delay."

Xia Junyan patted her on the shoulder: "I'm relieved to hear Madam Hu's words. I have tasted Madam Hu's craftsmanship just now, and my wife will definitely say yes after tasting it during the small banquet."

Mrs. Hu became more and more energetic, quickly arranged a simple cold dish in her hand, and called the woman who helped the cook to go directly to the pool to pick fish.

Xia Junyan called the little maid just now, and asked, "Where is Mrs. Zhao now?"

The little maid lowered her head and whispered, "Just resting in her room."

Xia Junyan nodded, and immediately went out to call the lady in charge.Although the lady in charge knew that Xia Junyan was a bit embarrassed by the servants, as long as it was harmless, she still turned a blind eye. Little people like them rarely want to show their faces in front of the wife. Who let the limelight this time let Xia Junyan This outsider gave it.

However, where is the position of the lady in charge? Compared with the women and maids, the vision is still slightly higher.Seeing Xia Junyan was also very polite: "What do you want to order from Shopkeeper Xia?"

Xia Junyan said: "Miss Zhao has diarrhea. I saw that she was fine a moment ago, but now she is lying in her room and can't get up. I guess it may be an emergency. It is a lively day in your house today, so It’s not auspicious to invite a doctor on this day. I’m just worried that Mrs. Zhao will come to see her because she cares about the stove, so it’s better to temporarily lock the door of her room, on the one hand, so that she can recover from her illness, and on the other hand, it’s also for the sake of the safety of the stove.”

The lady in charge didn't expect Xia Junyan to speak out so directly, and even made a decision for her.Everyone knows the trick that Mrs. Zhao played.Anyway, they all work together in the same mansion, and the lady in charge was about to persuade her, Xia Junyan said with a smile: "This lady Zhao has diarrhea symptoms, do you dare to let this kind of lady stay in the kitchen? As long as the lady can guarantee that Mrs. Zhao will not come to the dining room today, the door doesn't need to be locked."
