Su Wan transmigrated to become a small palace maid in the Imperial Food Department. She diligently lived her days in the vast palace, all to save enough money and one day go home to pick up her aun...
The people in the Imperial Household Department looked at this and couldn't help but sigh in regret.
The good cook they had just found was discovered when they were eating the two dishes and one soup, and even when they were eating rice.
The chief, deputy chief steward and Wei Jun were fighting for the food with great pleasure, fearing that they would miss a bite.
After eating in a hurry, Deputy Manager Chai immediately thought of something, and the three of them hurried over to try to keep the people.
What a pity. When the west kitchen was fine before, Right Manager might have given them some face, but now he will definitely transfer Su Wan from the small kitchen to the big kitchen.
The same goes for that nobleman. It would have been fine if Rick had just detained the Western Kitchen on normal days, but why did he go after them all and detain them so severely? Otherwise, would the Deputy Prime Minister of the West gossip about him behind his back?
Now the big kitchen in the west kitchen has been closed tightly.
Otherwise, the Deputy Prime Minister Xi will have to resign.
In order to protect Deputy Prime Minister Xi, Aunt Feng Ping, the Right Hand Man, would not give in no matter what, and her aura alone was enough to overwhelm the three people on the opposite side.
Yu Shu was trembling with fear, but Su Wan, who was at the center of the vortex, was very calm.
It doesn’t matter where you cook, she can do it!
She likes both big and small kitchens.
But the matter of letting Su Wan be the chef for a day has not been decided yet. We must consult the deputy prime minister of the western kitchen first. After all, in the past, being the chef was the job of the head maid in the kitchen.
Excluding the three chief officers, there were eighty people left in the West Kitchen, including five senior palace maids, and each senior palace maid had fifteen junior palace maids under her.
In the past, the five senior palace maids took turns to discuss the meals, formulate menus, assist in cooking, prepare ingredients, etc.
There has never been a case of a palace maid directly serving as a chef in the Imperial Food Department.
Especially Su Wan, who is small in stature and young in age.
How can you convince people like this?
The right-hand man looked around and saw that there was still some sauerkraut fish soup left in the pot. There were still two spoonfuls left.
"Yu Shu, put the soup into bowls and send them to the five senior palace maids. Let them use the soup to soak their rice."
Anyone who has tasted Su Wan’s cooking will definitely have no objection to her being the chef.
Su Wan's eyes lit up. What a capable female official.
With just a little effort, she can convince so many people. She is worthy of being a female official.
Seeing that Su Wan didn't worry about the future at all, You Zhizhang looked at her helplessly. Children are good, silly and there is no need to worry about anything.
She also had to go to the Shangshenjian again to see the chief chef.
If Su Wan is allowed to be the head chef, she must be protected well to avoid trouble from the nobles in the inner palace.
Wait until these things are arranged.
The people from the Imperial Household Department and the Right Chief left one after another.
Yu Shucai leaned over and whispered, "Wanwan, you've also heard that it was the nobleman in the inner palace who didn't want the deputy prime minister to manage the western kitchen. If you really improve the food in the western kitchen, won't that make you an enemy of that nobleman?"
Su Wan still smiled: "What are you afraid of? If she was really powerful, she would have replaced the Shangshi Division with her own people long ago."
After saying this, Su Wan still had something else to say.
If the sky falls, there are people above to hold it up.
No matter how powerful that nobleman is, he can't bypass the Imperial Food Department and the Western Kitchen to deal with her, right?
Or go directly to Anhua Street, Chongnanfang, Beijing to cause trouble for the Su family?
If she could really achieve this, the opponents of this powerful nobleman would surely be delighted, regardless of what she did.
The nobles in power shouldn't be so stupid as to think they would have multiple handles on a little palace maid.
At most, you can put pressure on yourself, not allowing yourself to take further steps and go to a "better place".
Su Wan cleaned up the soup of the golden soup and pickled fish and handed it to Yu Shu, feeling even more like laughing.
She never thought about going to "a better place."
There are the South Kitchen and the North Kitchen, or the small kitchen for the nobles in the inner palace.
She didn't want to go at all.
It's better to live a peaceful and stable life in a remote western kitchen.
There are fewer people here and less gossip, so there is no need to get involved in the fights on the other side. If I remember correctly, the North and South kitchens are not as harmonious as the West kitchen.
She would pretend to be a palace maid and be the chef in the west kitchen, and the meal would be done with just a bowl of pickled fish soup.
On the other side, it's not that simple.
She is a person with humble ambitions. She just wants to live a good life according to her mother's wishes in her previous life, to make herself plump and white, and then bring her aunt from this life to live with her. She has no other big ambitions at all.
Such simple and fulfilling days can probably only be achieved in the western kitchen.
If the person in power is suppressing her from being promoted, that would be a good thing!
Su Wan was smiling, as if she was in a good mood all the time.
Instead, Yu Shu stared at him blankly for a few seconds, seeming to be hesitant to speak.
When the bowl of pickled fish soup was given to the five palace maids to mix with rice, their expressions were all shocked.
What is this for?
It's lunch time now and it's very busy outside. What is the Right Hand Man going to do?
But once the golden soup sauerkraut is heated up slightly, the aroma will come out immediately.
The palace servants who were busy in the kitchen paused and looked over subconsciously.
What’s that smell? Why does it smell so good?
Is this the food cooked in their big kitchen?
The five palace maids looked at the soup, their eyes widened, and they asked in surprise, "Is this a reward from the Right Chief?"
“This smells so good.”
"Did you take it from the North and South Kitchens?"
“Let me taste it first!”
"Your Excellency the Right Hand is so kind."
The other palace maids looked on, all filled with envy.
It smells really good.
They want to try it too.
But the five senior palace maids had already started to mix the rice with the soup, which contained a lot of pickled cabbage. When they poured it on the rice and mixed it again, the taste was simply amazing.
A young eunuch who was serving food happened to pass by and asked in surprise, "What's that smell in here? Why does it smell so good? What dish is it?"
When the young eunuch heard that it was a reward from his superior, he sighed.
Look at the food in other people’s north and south kitchens, and then look at theirs.
They have a hard life.
Not only one eunuch smelled it, but some guards also came over.
There was nothing they could do, it was just too fragrant. They had never smelled such a fragrant smell in the west kitchen.
For a moment, I was a little dazed.
When they heard that the food was not from the western kitchen, they actually felt that it was just as they expected.
"That's right, how come the food in the western kitchen smells so good?"
"It was a reward from the commander, no wonder."
"Is this made in the South Kitchen or the North Kitchen? I think the food in the inner palace is no better than this."
"The cooking skills over there have improved."
"I'm so envious. It would be great if I could eat it."
Listening to the complaints and the sad faces of the crowd, the five palace maids felt guilty while eating the soup and rice in their hands.
The soup smells really good.
It still smells really good when you put it in your mouth!
It is even more delicious than you might imagine, with rich broth, small pieces of tasty pickled cabbage, and the aroma of peppers, onions and garlic.
Perfectly blended in this soup, the soup coats every grain of rice.
You don’t need any other dishes, you can eat two bowls of rice with this soup!
Su Wan looked at everyone's expressions of love for the sauerkraut fish soup and smiled in her heart.
It was indeed a simple and plain western-style kitchen. It seemed that there would be no problem for her to be the chef for a day.
Another equally important point is that it is really satisfying to let everyone eat delicious food.
Delicious food can really make people happy in all aspects!
