Chapter 569: Chapter 569 Heading To The Manor
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The young beggar, Qi Feng, and five others were taken into the manor.
However, after Lin Yitian and the rest did their investigations and tests, they only accepted Qi Feng and another person with good innate ability as guards.
Biaozi took in two beggars as kitchen helpers.
The remaining two were handed over to Zhou Dasheng to run errands and do odd jobs.
When they arrived at the manor, Gu Chengrui went straight to the fields while Zhou Ying and Gu Wanning carried their luggage to a small courtyard.
When they were almost settled, Widow Wu walked over and asked, “Madam, what do you want to eat for lunch?”
“What’s available?” Zhou Ying thought for a moment and asked.
“There are still three eggs left, along with some carrots and cabbages.”
“Is Lord Chen also in the manor?”
“Yes, he has been staying with two bailiffs at the shed to keep an eye on the vegetables.”
“They live in the shed?”
“Yes, they’re also eating their meals over there. Head Fang has persuaded them to come over more than once.
“However, they did not agree. They said that it was convenient to stay there and watch the shed. Moreover, it’s warmer there.”
“Alright. Take out all the ingredients, and I’ll cook lunch while you help me.”
“Understood, I will go down and prepare the kitchen.” Widow Wu turned around and walked away.
“You want to invite Lord Chen and the other two for lunch?” Gu Wanning asked.
“Yeah, they’ve been keeping an eye on the vegetable for us. Since we’re here, we must show some respect in return.”
“I see. Let’s cook together later. I can also learn a few moves from you.”
“No problem. Although you have servants to serve you, it’s best if you learn two specialty dishes. When the time comes, you can cook for His Highness from time to time.”
Gu Wanning nodded shyly, and she deeply agreed with her words. After all, Yang Wanyu had s.n.a.t.c.hed her husband away with a bowl of pear soup in her previous life.
She had to learn more cooking from now on.
“Let’s go take a walk and stretch our muscles.” Zhou Ying smiled and led her out when she saw she had listened to her advice.
First, she went to the shed and saw that the sweet potato seedlings had already begun to be planted. She took off her coat to help out Gu Chengrui.
About an hour later, Zhou Ying stood up and said to Gu Chengrui, “Rui, bring the three brothers to our house for lunch when it’s noon.”
“Madam, there’s no need…” Halfway through Chen He’s words, Gu Chengrui raised his hand to stop him. “Just give us this one. Let’s have a good chat at noon about the problems you’ve encountered recently.”
“It’s settled then. I’ll return and cook now.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she left the shed.
After coming out, she walked around the shed at the side. When she saw some small rapeseeds that were ready to be eaten, she picked a bunch and filled half a basket.
After returning to the courtyard, Zhou Ying handed it to Gu Wanning and said, “Take it to the kitchen and wash it. I’ll go get something else.”
After saying that, Zhou Ying returned to her room. After putting down her cloak, she went to her inters.p.a.ce to get a piece of cured meat, about two pounds of dried mushrooms, and a bag of black fungus mushrooms.
When she returned to the kitchen, she saw the two women was.h.i.+ng the vegetables. Zhou Ying took a little of the three ingredients she brought and soaked them. She then checked the ingredients that Widow Wu had prepared.
They were radishes, cabbages, some dried vegetables, and a bowl of black noodles.
Zhou Ying pondered for a moment and decided to use some bacon and dried hemp vegetables as well.
Zhou Ying started stir-frying the mushrooms, pickling the cabbages in vinegar, and stir-frying the eggs with black fungus mushrooms. She originally wanted to mix them with shredded radishes but had to change plans when there wasn’t white sugar here; she stewed the radishes instead..
