Therefore, she prepared more food and gave most of the food to them, which resulted in insufficient food in the front hall.
But despite this, these scoundrels still felt that what she gave was not enough and continued to ask for things.
"Oh, my dear eldest sister, please give us some more xiaolongbao!" Wei San continued to approach Chef Zhu with a look of salivation on his face. Regardless of how much younger she is than his mother, she calls her "eldest sister" in a very affectionate manner.
"Hmph!" Chef Zhu replied angrily to Wei San.
"Didn't you hear? Over in the front hall, the masters don't have any xiaolongbao to eat. Where can I get xiaolongbao for you?!"
Wei San glanced at the two people making Xiao Long Bao.
"Hey, it doesn't matter, Xiaolongbao and so on. Sister, help us get some fried dough sticks first, glutinous rice cake cubes and tea eggs too!" He looked like he was easy to discuss.
"Hmph!" Chef Zhu snorted again and glared at Wei San.
"No more!" He dropped the sentence.
Wei San's eyes were looking around the kitchen.
It seems...it's gone.
In other words, it originally existed. But now it’s gone.
Chef Zhu said with a proud look in her eyes: "People from all the courtyards came to get breakfast. Now there is no breakfast in the kitchen, so we can only make it fresh."
Wei San wanted to speak, but Chef Zhu interrupted him directly.
"There's word from the front hall that we need to make steamed dumplings for them first."
"You can continue to have breakfast if you want. You have to wait until we finish making the xiaolongbao before making them for you."
In fact, it's not that one or even two people can't be separated to make other breakfast meals, but she doesn't want to arrange it like this.
Once these people arrived, their kitchen work more than doubled.
This Wei San was so angry and flirting with her, it was so outrageous.
She had given them so much breakfast, and she didn't believe they were not full. He was obviously greedy and deliberately deprived them of free time.
Wei San was so anxious that he scratched his head and ears.
"Oh, my dear eldest sister——"
Chef Zhu felt numb in her heart, turned around and pushed him towards the kitchen door.
"If you stay here longer and delay our work, we will make too much breakfast later and you won't be able to share it!"
Wei San finally shut up.
"You - get out too!" Chef Zhu glared at Zhang Yi who was standing aside.
Zhang Yi shrank his neck.
He slipped out of the kitchen door in despair.
"Hmph!" Chef Zhu snorted again, pulled the door over and closed it.
In the kitchen, two men who were making buns looked over. After being glared at by Chef Zhu, they quickly continued their work.
Chef Zhu glanced at the door behind her to make sure that Wei San and Zhang Yi wouldn't break in, and then walked towards the stove.
"Bring the wrapped buns and steam them first. The masters are still waiting in the front hall." Chef Zhu said angrily.
"Okay!" One of his subordinates responded and hurriedly sent over several baskets of steamed buns.
Chef Zhu quickly put the buns on the stove and steamed them.
Then he went to make buns with two of his men.
The two men looked at each other, and one of them spoke tentatively.
"Auntie, we--really don't want to continue making breakfast for those two people outside?"
"Yes, Madam, although they did go too far. But Madam gave the order earlier -" Another person said worriedly.
Chef Zhu glared at the speaker angrily, causing him to shut up immediately.
"Who said we won't do it for them?"
"When we finish making the xiaolongbao, we will continue to make them for them. We will make as much as they want."
"The morning is short. If they want to eat, they can eat until noon! Let them hold on and see how much they can eat at noon!"
The two men looked at each other again and neither answered.
"By the way, I'll go find the housekeeper later and ask Caimai to go to town for another trip. The people in the house are so good at eating, the ingredients bought in the kitchen are not enough." Chef Zhu said suddenly.
"Yes!" Someone responded.
In the front hall.
As expected, Shen Shuangshuang and others didn't wait long before the kitchen delivered freshly steamed steamed dumplings.
But everyone was almost full by now.
Yin Song, Murong Zhan and Li Ke were not idle while waiting for the xiaolongbao. After all, other breakfast foods also tasted good. Until now, although they can still eat, they can't eat much.
So, there were a lot of Xiao Long Bao left in the kitchen.
As soon as Chuntao led people to remove the breakfast from the front hall, she met Wei San and Zhang Yi waiting there at the door of the kitchen.
Wei San and Zhang Yi learned the great news and rushed into the kitchen.
Then, regardless of Chef Zhu's obstruction, he snatched away all the xiaolongbao.
Chuntao was shocked.
When Wei San and Zhang Yi snatched away the steamed dumplings, she realized that her share was gone too.
Seeing that Chef Zhu was furious and ready to catch up, Chuntao quickly stopped her.
"Okay, Aunt Zhu. If they want to eat, just give it to them."
"The visitors are guests, and they were brought back by my master and my cousin."
Chef Zhu looked better.
"I know it too, but -"
"Hey, forget it, they won't be able to stay for more than a few days."
Chuntao covered her lips.
"Yes, Aunt Zhu has been working hard these past few days."
"Don't worry, I will go talk to Madam. If you have worked hard these days, Madam will definitely reward you."
Chef Zhu's face lit up, and she had no complaints at all.
"Actually, it's nothing, just cooking for a dozen more people."
"Miss Chuntao, please tell Madam, we will take care of the kitchen."
Chuntao said a few words to Chef Zhu before leaving.
In the front yard, Murong Zhan and Yin Song suggested that they want to visit the Mongolian School and Workshop.
Mrs. Shen wanted her daughter-in-law to spend more time with her son, so she decided to take Murong Zhan and Yin Song with her.
As a result, Shen Shuangshuang's family of three was left behind.
"Dad, can you take my mother and me to the town to play?" Li Ling ran over and took Li Ke's hand.
Li Ke leaned over and picked up his son, then turned to look at Shen Shuangshuang.
Use your eyes to ask your wife for her opinion.
"Yes." Shen Shuangshuang glanced at his expectant son and responded.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the town will definitely be lively.
If there weren't guests at home, she would have taken her son and her mother-in-law to stay in the town at night, waiting for the lantern festival at night.
The family of three was getting ready to leave when Chuntao came back.
Chuntao came to Shen Shuangshuang, lowered her voice and told Shen Shuangshuang about the kitchen.
"There are a lot of servants in the house, and the kitchen was a little busy before. Now there are more than a dozen people eating, and Aunt Zhu and the others are really busy." Chuntao whispered.
While talking, he glanced at Li Ke secretly.
Li Ke's ears were so good that he couldn't hear Chuntao's words, but he could only pretend not to hear them.
The food at home is delicious, not to mention Wei San and the others, even he and the prince have great appetites.
There were more than a dozen rice cooks at home at once, so if there were any objections from the kitchen...
Realizing that his wife was looking over, Li Ke turned around with his son in his arms.
He thought to himself that next time he came back, he would not bring so many people with him.
