"You've been allowed to drink the tea, but isn't the gate of Shangshui Manor open to you as you please?"
"Tangtang, you sound like a little wife, don't you?"
"Ye Jingxiao~ I think you deserve to be punished!" Ning Xiaotang immediately took a piece of cake and threw it to Ye Jingxiao with her cute little hands.
"Thank you Tangtang for the pastries!" Ye Jingxiao immediately put the pastries in his mouth and ate them in one bite.
Ning Xiaotang suddenly felt that Ye Jingxiao was really a freeloader.
"Hmph! I won't bother with you!"
On the other side of the servants' quarters, a door was leading Liu Deshi towards the servants' yard.
"Manager Liu, this is where your family lives."
When Liu Deshi took a look, he found that it was actually a small courtyard with several small rooms and a small courtyard, which was a good place for his two children to play.
"Good, very good!" Liu Deshi immediately pulled his wife, a woman who was as thin as a malnourished person.
There are also two little chubby daughters and sons beside her.
"Manager Liu, please do as you please. I'll take my leave!" He immediately opened the door and left.
"De Shi, we are leaving the Palace of Prince Chen like this? Will we still have a good life after this?"
The woman asked with a frightened look.
"Yifang, don't worry. This is Princess Roujia's villa. All the people living here are members of the Ning family. So this is the home of Prince Chen's good friend. Prince Chen treats Princess Roujia with special care!"
"Are you serious? Then can we still go back to Prince Chen's Mansion in the future?"
"Go back? No, no, no, we'll stay in Shangshui Manor from now on and follow Miss Ning. You don't know that when Miss Ning defeated Zheng Luoluo, I decided that if I had the chance in the future, I would definitely follow her. Now that this opportunity is right here, how can I turn it down?"
"But we need food. We are following you. If the monthly allowance is not much, how will we get food for the three of us?"
Liu Deshi immediately said, "You clean up here first. I'll go ask Tian Bo how much my monthly allowance is."
Fang Yifang nodded immediately. Her thin appearance made Liu Deshi feel even more distressed.
Then Liu Deshi walked out quickly and came to the director's room where Tian Bo handled distribution affairs.
"Uncle Tian, are you there?" Liu Deshi's voice was full of energy, which made Tian Bo put down his abacus immediately.
"It's Manager Liu, come in quickly!"
Soon, a young servant came up with tea. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with your accommodation?"
"No! Uncle Tian, the truth is, I, Liu Deshi, didn't come to Shangshui Village alone. I brought three family members to support: my wife and children."
"So, Manager Liu is asking about the monthly allowance?"
"That's right. Tian Bo knows that it is not easy for us, so please tell us!" Liu Deshi immediately bowed.
"I was just about to go to your courtyard and tell you about this. Miss Quanyue just came and told me that I'll pay you according to the monthly allowance of Prince Chen's Mansion, which is still three taels of silver a month! Don't worry!"
Tian Bo immediately said with a smile.
Liu Deshi immediately smiled and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Tian Bo, for telling me! Goodbye!"
In Liu Deshi's courtyard
"Still following the original monthly schedule?" Fang Yifang said excitedly while eating a steamed bun.
"Exactly!" Liu Deshi also took the steamed bun and ate it. As soon as he took a bite, he said, "This steamed bun is not freshly steamed that day, it's from the day before!"
Fang Yifang immediately said, "How could that be?"
"Nothing can be hidden from me when it comes to food!" Liu Deshi's eyes immediately showed displeasure.
"De Shi, should we go and report to the young lady?"
"You guys eat first, I'll be back soon!"
When Liu Deshi ate the fresh steamed buns from Ning Xiaotang, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed, "This is fresh."
"So, you will take up the position of kitchen manager tomorrow. I will announce it in the mansion tomorrow morning!"
"Yes, girl!" Liu Deshi returned to his own courtyard.
It turned out that Ning Xiaotang did not go directly to the kitchen to get someone because the person in charge of the kitchen was her aunt Chen Ya.
Now the kitchen fell into his hands, and such a thing of selling inferior goods as good ones would never happen again!
The next morning
Ning Xiaotang took Liu Deshi to the kitchen, and Chen Ya hurriedly prepared to take a carriage to go shopping.
"Aunt, from now on, Liu Deshi will be in charge of the kitchen chores. You can just accompany grandma to recite scriptures and learn about Buddhism!"
Chen Ya's face was slightly panicked, and she pursed her lips: "Tangtang, why did you suddenly change people?"
"This Liu Deshi is the capable chef of Prince Chen's Mansion. From now on, he will personally take charge of the Ning family's meals and ensure that everyone's dishes are more diverse!"
Chen Ya's heart was broken into pieces. She was afraid that it would be difficult for her to get such good money again.
"Hey, this is the money the kitchen bought. Please accept it, Manager Liu!"
"Thank you, Madam. I'll accept it!" Liu Deshi immediately stretched out his hands to take it, then got on the carriage and drove away.
"Aunt, it's still early, you should go back and take a nap!"
"Well, okay!" Chen Ya said with a twitching mouth.
Ning Xiaotang left with her people.
Only Chen Ya was left sighing secretly.
While reciting scriptures in the morning, Hai Moying had already heard about the new person in charge of the kitchen, and he was extremely happy.
"Mom, have you enjoyed this morning's breakfast?" Hai Moying immediately asked in a lowered voice.
"Yes, I used it." Although Luo Xiangqin didn't like to reply to her daughter-in-law while reciting scriptures, she asked, so she replied patiently.
"Mom, that was made by the new chef. Look how delicious the millet porridge is!"
"If you continue talking, you will be kicked out!" Luo Xiangqin immediately glared at Hai Moying unhappily.
Chen Ya was unhappy and rolled his eyes at Hai Moying.
But Hai Moying said unhappily, "Sister-in-law, I'm not saying anything bad about you! You didn't have this level of skill when you cooked the millet porridge back then, and the temperature of the millet porridge wasn't right either!"
"Hai Moying, if you keep talking, go outside and tell me! You can talk all day long!" Luo Xiangqin immediately cursed in displeasure.
"Yes, Mom, I won't say anymore!" Hai Moying was so scared that she covered her mouth with her hands.
At this moment, Liu Ayuan came in and reported, "Old Madam, First Madam, Second Madam, our third brother is going to compete with Liu Mu's son at Xiliu Village. You should go and have a look!"
Luo Xiangqin was immediately startled: "Quick, help me up!"
Liu Ayuan immediately said, "Madam, that Liu Mu's son, Liu Sanlin, is really naughty. I'm afraid Third Brother won't be able to win this time!"
"Hurry, let's go and take a look together!" Chen Ya immediately stepped forward to support Old Lady Ning.
Hai Moying no longer cared about fighting with Chen Ya at this time and just ran out quickly.
