There had always been a lot of gossip in the deep courtyard, and rumors spread like wildfire. Everyone knew that the new madam was a person who was not liked and bullied by others. However, the rumors seemed to have changed in the past few days. No one knew if it was true or not, but they were naturally careful not to offend her.
"Masters, all of you are busy with your own work. I'm just borrowing a stove. You don't have to care about me. Don't let me affect everyone's work.”After saying that, Liu Weilan did not care about the people who were standing neatly. She led Zi-er to the most remote stove and started to do her own things.
The people in the kitchen couldn't help but be a little stunned. Almost all the masters in this residence were arrogant and temperamental. They didn't expect that this Furen actually didn't put on any airs and seemed to be very respectful to them servants. In the past, he often heard people gossiping that Madam was an uneducated bastard. This time, the rumors were finally dispelled.
Liu Weilan had washed all the rose buds before she dried them. She had also covered them with a layer of gauze when she dried them, so they were all clean. This saved her a lot of trouble.
After washing the stove a few times and removing the oil from the pot, Liu Weilan started to stir-fry the tea. In modern times, she was a southerner. Her parents owned a tea garden before they died, so Liu Weilan was no stranger to stir-fried tea.
Seeing that Liu Weilan had really started to move, the chef in the kitchen felt that he could not do it. Some of the more courageous ones hurried forward and said in fear," Madam, this is not allowed. If you need anything, just say the word. We will do it." How dare I trouble you to do such a rough job yourself?”
"Master, it's fine. I'm just making some tea myself. This is a traditional method. I'm afraid others don't know how to do it. When I'm done, I'll invite everyone to taste it. Don't be busy. Do your thing.”Liu Weilan said politely. No matter what kind of intentions these people had, they were all kind to her. She had always been clear about love and hate. If others respected her, she would naturally return the favor.
Hearing Liu Weilan's words, everyone didn't say anything else. Everyone had their own rooms to take care of. Seeing that it was only four hours before dinner, they all went to work.
Zier saw Liu Weilan staring at the empty pot and couldn't help but ask," Miss, there's nothing in this pot. What are you looking at?"”
Liu Weilan patiently explained," I'm looking at the heat of the pot. When frying the rose tea, you need to put the flower buds into the pot before the pot starts to smoke. The heat will do." Zi-er nodded as if she understood.
Hearing that Liu Weilan had just left the courtyard and gone to the kitchen, Yun Ying's expression turned ugly. These few days, she had been restless. Even though His Highness would still spend the night at her place, from time to time, he would talk about that bitch Liu Weilan. How could she tolerate this? But because of his highness, she couldn't flare up. She only felt a tightness in her chest, giving her a headache.
"Sister, since we don't know what that woman is up to, why don't we take the opportunity to go and take a look? It's also good to see if she has anything that we can use against her.”An unfavored concubine who had come to look for Yun Ying said flatteringly.
Yun Ying glanced at her." Alright, let's go and see what that woman is up to." Presumably, these few days when wangye was in a good mood and rewarded her, it had made her proud.”
Liu Weilan was very skilled. She quickly stir-fried the roses in the pot over and over again. Soon, the fragrance of the roses spread. Although the temperature of the pot was extremely hot, it did not change the color of the roses at all.
At first, the chef who was standing close to Liu Weilan thought that it was just a whim of the madam to come to the kitchen to experience the novelty. He did not expect Liu Weilan to look like she was just playing around. He could not help but have a good impression of this new madam.
The young ladies of the rich families had always only learned needlework. Only a few of them could learn the work of the kitchen. However, this new madam not only treated the servants generously, but she could also make tea by herself. She could not help but make people look at her in a new light.
"Zi 'er, go and take the agarwood bottles that I prepared in advance and put them separately. If they get wet, they won't have any taste. Don't deliberately fill them up.”Seeing that it was almost time, Liu Weilan instructed Zi 'er to finish up the work. Naturally, these tasks were not difficult for Zi 'er. The two of them did not take long to get most of the work done.
Liu Weilan looked at the fruits of her labor and couldn't help but smile." Everyone says that they have enough to eat and wear. The ancients really didn't lie to me."”
"Miss, what did you say?" Zi 'er looked at her lady's smiling face and could not help but ask curiously. She had never seen anyone so happy at work.
Liu Weilan looked at Zi-er," You little brat, your ears are long.”After she finished speaking, she did not forget to extend her slender jade finger and tap Zi 'er's head.
Zier ignored Liu Weilan's words and asked seriously," Miss, I did well, didn't I?”She stared at Liu Weilan and blinked. Liu Weilan nodded subconsciously. Zi 'er had never missed a job.
Upon hearing this, Zi 'er was instantly as happy as a little fox that had stolen a chicken. "That's good. I knew that Young Lady has always kept her word. Then shouldn't it be time to fulfill her promise to cook for Zi 'er?”
Liu Weilan couldn't help but feel helpless. She sighed and thought," It's not difficult. Look at you. You're really useless. You're a typical foodie."”
"What's a foodie, girl?" Zier's question stunned Liu Weilan. This was a modern term, and she didn't know how to explain it to Zier.
"This…I don't think there's any honey left. How can I make rose cakes with this?”Liu Weilan pretended to be in a difficult position as she muttered to herself. Zi 'er's attention was successfully diverted in an instant. What a joke, what could be more important than her eating delicious food? Liu Weilan couldn't help but shake her head as she watched the little girl run off to look for honey.
In the modern world, he liked to eat desserts because of her. Even though she had never been in the kitchen since she was young, she still went to a high-end pastry shop to learn from the pastry chef for a long time. Simple baking was a piece of cake for her. Even though they lacked a lot of raw materials, Liu Weilan felt that it shouldn't be too bad.
Liu Weilan methodically kneaded the dough with the stir-fried rose, made the stuffing, and adjusted the taste. From beginning to end, she did everything herself without asking anyone else. There was a palace maid in the middle who made pancakes. She bravely went forward to help Liu Weilan, but she was rejected.
When everything was ready, she borrowed the chef's oven. The oven was actually just a big furnace for making biscuits. Liu Weilan asked Zi 'er to help put the biscuits into the oven one by one, and she waited patiently at the side.
"What's that smell? It smells so good." Someone whispered. Liu Weilan smiled. She was very confident in her snacks.
