Chapter 258 Cosplaying Rima, even if you don't have one
With so many people, we need to train some cooks among these "foodies," since the buck-toothed Yu, who can cook, went to the border and hasn't returned yet.
Cooking for so many people is really difficult.
After the meal, Lin Xi kept staring at Hei Yi and the others, looking them over and over again.
Those questioning looks made Hei Yi and the others tense up.
Did he eat too much...? The boss seems to be complaining... complaining...
Hei Yi felt a chill run down his spine. He secretly nudged Hei Er beside him and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Third brother, look at the way the boss is looking at us. I have a feeling we've messed up our appetites today. What are we going to do?"
What to do? If he knew, he wouldn't be the third son anymore; he'd be the eldest.
So, everyone turned their attention to their leader.
What to do?
Their movements were so synchronized that there was no room for concern.
Gao Mengli smiled and asked, "Does anyone here know how to cook?"
Upon hearing the question, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
They can't cook, they only know how to make "pig feed," does that count?
Hei scratched his head, a hint of embarrassment on his face, and nudged his boss with a chuckle: "Boss, I'm asking you a question!"
Ah Li glanced at everyone with a troubled expression, then spoke up for them, "Madam, they are all rough men who don't know how to cook."
The main reason is that they have many tasks and don't have the opportunity or time to cook.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone hungry for four meals in two days, to the point where he couldn't even hold his crescent blade properly...
Lin Xi frowned, clearly dissatisfied: "You don't even know how?"
The crowd pecked at the rice like chicks, leaving afterimages.
Lin Xi pursed her lips, her expression showing utter disdain, but she still turned to Ah Li and instructed, "Go to my aunt's place and ask her to make me some aprons. I'll come and pick them up tomorrow."
Then he turned to look at the group of guys and said, "Tomorrow, you will all learn to cook with me."
Once you've learned how, when the inn opens, you can work in the kitchen cooking. You'll be paid two taels of silver a month.
Of course, if it's done poorly, then it'll be one or two ounces.
Blackie's eyes shone like stars in the night sky as he excitedly exclaimed, "Boss, don't worry!"
"It's just cooking! We may have never done it before, but we'll definitely learn it without any problems!"
They've got a job! The pancakes came so fast they almost couldn't catch them!
Two taels of silver can buy a lot of things. Who knows, if you save enough for a year, you might be able to build a house and get married!
Everyone was eager to try, and the awkward atmosphere from before because they didn't know how to cook was completely gone.
This Mr. Lin is their mentor!
Some of these "talented individuals" are fake; even if they grit their teeth, they still want to become that colt that can travel a thousand miles a day!
Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Lin Xi was somewhat satisfied.
There's nothing you can't learn, only things you don't want to learn!
Practice makes perfect. Even if you force-feed them until they die, you'll still produce one or two master chefs!
After giving their instructions, the group quickly and efficiently cleared away the bowls and wiped the table, working as diligently as they could!
This pleased Lin Xi even more. He turned to look at Meng Ze, who was staring intently at Gao Mengli. He frowned and asked, "Why are you staring at my wife?"
Was he seeing things wrong with the look in that person's eyes?
Her eyes were red from looking at him. Could it be that she was jealous that he had such a good wife?
Mengze felt as if someone had suddenly poked him in the spine, and he jolted awake, hastily averting his gaze.
He stammered, "No... I just think the mistress of the house looks like my older sister..."
"Like your older sister?"
He couldn't see any resemblance between his wife Gao Mengli and him at all.
Gao Mengli also became interested and glanced at Mengze.
Seeing that he was different from her, she felt a little relieved.
After all, according to what the old man had said before, when she came to the village before, her parents did indeed have a baby brother in their arms.
However, given the two men's intention to sell their daughter to keep their son, it's impossible for her brother to be left to wander outside.
According to Ali, Meng was abandoned by his family and went to their village, which makes it even more impossible.
She's living a good life now and doesn't want to get involved with that awful family, but her gossipy nature still led her to ask, "What about your sister?"
Judging from his appearance, his sister must not be with him.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Mengze's eyes dimmed: "Sold by my parents... and their whereabouts are still unknown..."
Lin Xi and Gao Mengli nodded in understanding; this was exactly what they had guessed.
Only Ah Li kept glancing back and forth at them, feeling a little anxious. Just as she was about to speak, Meng Ze grabbed her arm.
Lin Xi and Gao Mengli glanced at A Li's excited expression, and then saw Meng Ze grab A Li's wrist.
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes gleaming as if they had fallen for an inappropriate couple.
They hadn't been to the county town to "eat melons" for a long time, and the villagers were so kind that they didn't quarrel with each other even when they were busy. They were really bored.
I never imagined this "liveliness" was right beside me. These two are by my side every day; it's like watching a TV series every day!
Mengze and A Li were stunned by the intense gazes of the two men.
It feels like, it seems, or perhaps the owners (the master and mistress) have decided to go somewhere else...
Ah Li suddenly stood up, gave the instruction "Go to the garment workshop," and then disappeared.
Gao Mengli and Lin Xi watched as the main character ran far away, their eyes fixed intently on Mengze.
Lin Xi understood immediately. Sure enough, handsome guys all have boyfriends, and even those who aren't good-looking but have a good temperament have boyfriends!
Commonly known as, "someone else's!"
Seeing that Mengze's head was practically inside her chest, Gao Mengli quickly tugged at Lin Xi, telling him to tone it down.
After all, other people don't have skin as thick as the two of them; it wouldn't be good to scare them!
"Hey? Where did Little Eleven go?"
Hei Yi was confused. After packing his things, he saw that his little eleventh son, A Li, had disappeared.
They weren't familiar with their employer and didn't know anyone there, so they were still a bit reserved.
Lin Xi smiled and said, "Alright, after you're done packing, come back with us. The house is empty and needs some cleaning before you can move in!"
Hei Yi nodded hurriedly, his face full of gratitude: "Thank you so much, boss. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
The other brothers echoed their sentiments.
They can still stay at their employer's house?!
The group quickly followed Lin Xi and Gao Mengli into the village.
At the village entrance, the high walls make it less noticeable, but once inside, everyone wishes they had two more pairs of eyes.
Because there's simply not enough room to look around; every household is a large red brick and tile house!
Workshops, rivers, wooden bridges, banana trees—this place feels like a paradise.
Hei Yi couldn't help but click his tongue, nudged Meng Ze beside him, and exclaimed, "Boss, what incredible luck we've had to find such a great place!"
"We usually live a life of hardship, sleeping outdoors. We've never seen such a prosperous and peaceful village before; it's like a painting."
Mengze nodded in agreement. Who could argue with that?
Back home, Da Niu quickly fed his crow, since it was too cold to have it guard the gate.
Now they keep them in his house. His father said that since they don't have a rooster at home, they can't crow to tell the time, so they use the black sparrow as his "alarm clock" to wake him up in the morning.
The name Black Sparrow was given to him by his father, and he thought it sounded quite nice!
When I got home, I rushed to the kitchen to cut some meat to feed my "alarm clock." He had been hungry all day, and Black Sparrow almost rolled his eyes.
After all, neither of the two owners in the house remembered it at all.
Sure enough, the little master loves it the most.
Hei Yi and the others tidied up the room next to A Li, while Lin Xi went to the old house to ask her father to help make bunk beds, ordering five of them.
Today, only a few people can sleep on the floor.
As night deepened, Gao Mengli waved her hand at the people still in the courtyard, saying, "Alright, you can all go and rest."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone flew onto the roof in unison.
A Li and Meng Ze: ? – _ – ?……
Lin Xi and Gao Mengli: Σ(￣ロ￣llll)......
"Ah this?"
Lin Xi looked up at the people on the roof and was completely baffled.
Hei Yi climbed onto the roof, but then realized something was wrong and quickly led everyone down to go back inside to sleep.
Damn it, my occupational hazard is kicking in...
