Delicious Delicacy of the Demon Spirit

Chapter 37 Oxtail Casserole

For some reason, upon waking up, Li Kuer's originally gloomy mood became much clearer.She got up and tidied up, and went to Prince Qiao's mansion to clean the courtyard.I don't know if Sister He and the little county master have returned.Li Kuer recalled the mood when he learned that the little county lord took He Weiran out to play at noon, as if he had been enchanted by a demon, and his stingy and horny attitude was really not like his own.Thinking about it now, it was just being taken out to "lobby". Since He Weiran had stated that he did not intend to leave Qingshui Town, he would definitely not break her promise, and there was really no reason to be so uneasy.

After sweeping the yard, Li Kuer went to the back kitchen to see if He Weiran had returned, but it turned out that everyone was waiting for her. to do.Now the person in charge of the spoon hasn't come back, and he can't move anything.Mama Zhang was obviously impatient, she stood at the door of the kitchen with her hips crossed, and said indifferently: "Some people have been here for so long, and they still don't know what they do. What's the use of trying to please the prince all day long? There is no one to explain when I go out, I really think that I am some great person, everyone has to look at her face, right? Princes and concubines have to wait for her to come back before eating? Bah! She is just a foreigner. "

Mama Zhang completely put on the posture of the former head chef. Everyone saw her like this, but no one dared to speak out. They were afraid that if she said one more word, Mama Zhang would rush over and tear people up.Li Kuer wondered what happened to the foreigners, not to mention the princes and concubines are also foreigners, the point is, the locals are not necessarily good, could it be that they are all saints?

Li Kuer was indignant, and was about to refute, when the housekeeper came.Seeing that the atmosphere in the back kitchen was not quite right, he understood it at a glance, cleared his throat and said: "The prince sent someone back to report that he would be back later. The prince's dinner today, Mama Zhang, you can make it."

Zhang Ma gave a cold snort, turned the bucket around and entered the kitchen, and said, "It's overdue."

Seeing this, the butler didn't say much, and just told everyone to work quickly.He had expected that when He Weiran arrived, Zhang Ma would be dissatisfied, but since Prince Qiao's mansion just moved here, Zhang Ma has been in charge of the back cook, and she has never made any mistakes, so she can't hire a new cook , sent her out, and to be honest, it was unfair for her to take a back seat.Now that the back kitchen has such conflicts, they can only let them rely on their abilities.The butler shook his head, sighed and left with his hands behind his back.Li Ku'er looked at the back of the butler, and then at the kitchen occupied by Zhang Ma once again, and Fang Cai's harsh words were still in her heart.

"Hmph, as soon as Sister He was away, Mama Zhang started to act awe-inspiring. I'm afraid we'd forget how powerful she was before." Xiao Qu went to Li Ku'er and complained.

Li Ku'er felt that he and Xiao Qu had reached a sufficient consensus in terms of thought, and quickly said, "That's right, it's just a big deal, and Mama Zhang said it's worse than her accepting bribes."

"Wow, Kuer, please keep your voice down! Let's understand this matter tacitly, don't say it."

Li Ku'er frowned, and said: "If the steward knows, she must go."

"It's so easy for you. We don't have evidence. I said she took bribes, and she has to bite me back and wrong her."

Li Kuer pouted: "It's really hateful."

Zhang Ma got the chance to cook for the prince again, she turned the whole kitchen upside down, used all the good ingredients, and vowed to cook a meal that would make the prince change his mind.Li Ku'er took a careful look inside, and at this moment, she saw that Mama Zhang was cutting a piece of pork. The pork was pork belly, and a fresh lotus leaf was thrown beside it.Li Ku'er stared, feeling bad, isn't this the pork belly she just bought today to make rice dumplings for River God Ayan?

Li Kuer hurried in and said to Mama Zhang: "Mama Zhang, this is the meat that Sister He bought with money, and I have to use it at night!"

Zhang Ma just ignored her, gave her a sideways glance, and continued to cut the meat swiftly.

Li Ku'er wanted to rush over to save the flesh, but because the knife was in the opponent's hand, he still didn't dare to go forward.In case Zhang's mother decided to kill someone fiercely, Li Ku'er was not confident that she could avoid it. When people knew that she was willing to die for two catties of meat, they would definitely have thoughts about He Weiran.Li Kuer tactfully left the kitchen as he caused trouble for others and was unable to do well for himself.

Mama Zhang cooked a lot of dishes with more care than before.Ah Chu and the others took away the dishes and brought back the leftovers. Zhang Ma asked Ah Chu, "What did the prince and princess say?"

Ah Chu tremblingly replied: "My lord didn't say anything."

Mama Zhang was very angry, and smashed the food box in Ah Chu's hand, and the bowls and plates shattered all over the floor.

Ah Chu was frightened into a fool, Ah Liao gave her a hand, and then she came to her senses, and silently went to eat among the servants.No one dared to go up, so Zhang Da went over to persuade her to calm down.Mama Zhang couldn't get over her anger at all, she poked Zhang Da's temple and said bitterly, "You worthless thing! I gave birth to you, you worthless thing!"

Zhang Da got angry when he was scolded in public for no reason like this, and shouted sharply: "Why are you angry at me! If it weren't for the fact that you are my old lady, who would care about you?"

When Mama Zhang heard this, she sat down on the ground, crying and scolding: "Oh, my life is so miserable! How did I give birth to such an unfilial son! That little girl named He! I owe her all my life." I still owe her in my previous life! Don’t let me live a good life when I come here! Oh my God! If you have eyes, quickly accept her! You can’t let this bitch harm others @%&#… "

The more Mama Zhang scolded, the harder it sounded, and everyone couldn't stand it.The maids and servants in the front yard couldn't see this disgusting look, so they took a few mouthfuls of food and left.

Xiao Qu rolled her eyelids: "Are you crazy? I have to ask Zhang Da to take her to see it."

Ah Chu patted his chest: "It's a good thing I didn't tell the truth, otherwise the food box would have slapped my face instead of the ground."

Li Kuer opened his small mouth slightly, and asked doubtfully, "Isn't that the truth just now?"

Ah Chu lowered his voice and said: "Let me tell you, Mrs. Qing has lost her appetite as before. She only ate a mouthful of braised pork and couldn't eat anything. The prince said that without Miss He, it really wouldn't be possible."

"Oh, you're so smart, Ah Chu!" Xiaoqu covered her mouth, "According to Zhang's mother's fiery temper today, if she hears about this, our table will probably be overturned, and no one will be able to eat."

"Okay, okay, let's eat quickly. After eating, run away, I don't know what will happen to Mama Zhang in a while." Li Kuer glanced at Mama Zhang who was still crying heartbreakingly on the ground, terrified Panic.She thought, if Sister He came back at this time, Mama Zhang would definitely draw a knife. It was really terrible.

After Li Kuer finished her meal, she ran to the front door, and she wanted to tell He Weiran about this as soon as possible.A Chuan's friend was on duty at the door, and the two were acquainted. Li Kuer, a little maid walking around the door was not nice, so he asked A Chuan's friend to come back after seeing He Weiran, and be sure to tell her, He was waiting inside the door.

It had been dark for a long time, and Li Kuer was squatting in a corner against the wall, almost falling asleep.Finally there was movement at the door, the door slowly opened, Shizi came in with the sleeping little princess in his arms, followed by several servant girls and servants, and He Weiran.A group of people went to the wing room without squinting, but He Weiran stopped, looked left and right, and found Li Kuer in the corner.

She walked over, carefully helped Li Kuer up, and asked, "It's so late, what are you waiting for me in this kind of place?"

Li Kuer blinked in bewilderment, and suddenly realized, "Sister He, you are finally back." She told He Weiran everything that happened today, including that Zhang Ma used it for Lord Heshen The pork belly used to make zongzi and the reason why Mama Zhang was outraged.

He Weiran heard this, frowned, and said: "I'll just buy the pork tomorrow, but Mama Zhang, although I knew she had resentment towards me, she didn't seem to do such a thing, why did she do this today?" Can't hold your breath anymore?"

Li Kuer shook his head, expressing that he had no clue.

He Weiran said again: "Is she still waiting for me in the back kitchen..."

Li Kuer thought it was possible, and hurriedly said: "Then don't go to the back kitchen, just tell her to wait overnight. That... I'll go home first."

Li Kuer wanted to leave after she finished speaking, but was stopped by He Weiran. She looked at the crooked moon in the sky and said, "It's getting late, how can you go home with such a dazed appearance? Go sleep at my place, the clothes from last time." It's still there."

Li Ku'er was indeed sleepy, so he followed He Weiran away after thinking about it.

Fang Fang stepped into the courtyard of the wing room, and the two saw the door of He Weiran's room, Zhang Ma dragged a chair and sat there aggressively, many people were watching the theater, and some persuaded Zhang Ma to go home.He Weiran and Li Kuer hurriedly retreated, but luckily it was a place where the light of the lantern could not shine, otherwise they would be discovered by Zhang Ma.

He Weiran shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "I'm here to kill you, I really don't want to confront her."

Li Ku'er grabbed He Weiran's sleeve and said anxiously: "Then what should I do, I just saw Mama Zhang holding a rolling pin in her hand."

He Weiran hissed, and said: "Let's go, let's hide. Maybe after one night, she will calm down and figure it out."

Li Kuer followed He Weiran's footsteps: "Where are you hiding?"

He Weiran squinted and smiled: "Isn't the bed in Ku'er's house quite big?"
