The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

The second butler felt that Qin Huiyin was being considerate when he heard her speak. If there weren't distinguished guests today, he would have been busy with many things and would really like to chat with her for a while longer.

At this time, someone called him. He turned back impatiently: "What are you yelling about here?"

"Second Steward, the Chief Steward said that today's distinguished guest is a gourmet who is very particular about food. He asked us to find the best chef in the city."

"Isn't the best chef in the city ours? We spent a fortune to hire him," the second butler said unhappily. "Is the head butler old and has a bad memory?"

"Second Steward, the Chief Steward has always wanted his brother-in-law to be the Second Steward. I'm not sure if he won't take this opportunity to trip you up and make you lose the Master's trust."

The confidant he had found whispered a few words to the second housekeeper. They spoke very quietly, but Qin Huiyin had good hearing and was used to listening for key words and analyzing details. Soon, the entire drama of the internal struggle for position in the mansion appeared in her mind.

She had originally thought this was a good opportunity. If she capitalized on it correctly, she could not only sell the bison for a high price but also receive a windfall. If there wasn't any windfall, that was fine. She had pursued the opportunity, and if she failed, she wouldn't regret it. After all, no one's life is smooth sailing. Her internet celebrity success wasn't instant.

"Second Steward, would you like to try my cooking skills? My ancestors were really royal chefs, and my cooking skills are pretty good. I also run a food business in town. Anyway, it's just one more try. If you don't like my cooking skills, just don't present it to me." Qin Huiyin said with a smile, "You don't believe me, but you should believe my brother, right?"

The second butler looked at Song Ruize and said, "Brother Song, is your sister really the descendant of the imperial chef?"

Song Ruize hesitated for a moment and looked at Qin Huiyin.

Qin Huiyin took Song Ruize's arm and shook it gently: "Brother, tell the second housekeeper quickly."

Song Ruize nodded stiffly: "Yeah."

"Okay, I trust Brother Song." The second butler said, "I'll ask Ying Hai to take you to the kitchen. If you need anything, just look for him."

"Second housekeeper, why don't you let her try? She is so young, what cooking skills can she have?" Ying Hai pulled the second housekeeper to the corner and said worriedly.

"Anyway, we have no other choice. Let's just make up the numbers. If it doesn't work, forget it. The Song family kid helped me before, so let's just consider it as repaying him."

The second butler is not stupid, how could he pin his hopes on a little girl?

Anyway, he owed Song Ruize a favor. Since he came to him, he would just repay the favor and he would not owe him anything in the future.

Since ancient times, debts of favor have been the hardest to repay. Today, I have repaid the debt of favor, which can be regarded as untying a knot in my heart.

Ying Hai understood what the second steward meant and took them into the mansion's kitchen.

When they entered, pairs of eyes were fixed on them.

"Brother Hai, who are these people?"

Mr. Tang San was old, so he found a place to sit and rest in the yard outside the kitchen. Only Song Ruize and the two girls came in.

"These are guests invited by the second housekeeper to help cook a few side dishes." Ying Hai said, "Please clear out the pots, and get two more to help cut and wash the vegetables."

Ying Hai called two more obedient ones to come and help.

He said to Qin Huiyin, "Sister, don't be offended. Among these people are the steward's people. It's better for us to keep it a secret to avoid any other trouble."

Qin Huiyin knew what Ying Hai meant. He didn't trust her ability and didn't dare to make such a boast, otherwise he would be embarrassed and go back to his grandmother's house.

The first challenge Qin Huiyin faced was to decompose the bison.

However, with Song Ruize here, this problem was quickly solved.

She only needed to tell Song Ruize her ideas. His ability to understand was superb, and the cut out would appear exactly as she described.

While Song Ruize was cutting the bison, Qin Huiyin and several others prepared various side dishes.

The Ouyang family was indeed a renowned and wealthy family in the city, stocking all sorts of rare and exotic ingredients. It was through the Ouyang family's kitchen that Qin Huiyin discovered the richer ingredients in this alternate dimension than she'd imagined. First, they had cucumbers, though unlike modern cucumbers, they had clearly not undergone various medical modifications, and their appearance wasn't as beautiful as those of later generations. However, their taste was similar to cucumbers, and they were even more juicy.

For example, common ones include white radish, red radish, potato, yam, spinach, eggplant, etc.

In theory, some of these vegetables are only available in modern times, and there were not such abundant ingredients in ancient times.

From various circumstances, it was clear that this alternate dimension was different from the dynasties in history, and the resources here were also different from those of that time. She thought things that shouldn't appear appeared, while things that should have appeared didn't. For example, the medical standards of this era were very poor, and many women could not receive treatment due to their gender.

There is still an hour before the dinner, which is a bit tight for Qin Huiyin, but there is still time if she rushes.

They were in a hurry, and so were the others. There was a distinguished guest here today, and everyone wanted to show off their skills in front of him to gain his appreciation.

Everyone was busy with their own things, and no one cared about anyone else. But soon they discovered that Qin Huiyin's side was not simple, after all, she cooked too deliciously.

This was the first time Song Ruize had watched Qin Huiyin cook so closely. Actually, they weren't that familiar with each other, and he'd even gone along with her lies today, which even he felt was possessed.

Forget it, since she also contributed to this bison, she would cooperate to the end. When this matter was over, he and she would still be two people who had nothing to do with each other.

Ying Hai just followed the Second Steward's instructions and took care of these people. He didn't think they could do anything new. After he settled them down, he went to do other things.

As the aroma grew stronger, his younger brother found him and reported the situation to him. He hurried over and saw the delicious beef soup at first glance, followed by the braised beef in another small pot.

Qin Huiyin was beating a piece of beautifully cut beef, adding various fragrant seasonings into it, and then sealing it up.

"Sister, you're not bragging!" Ying Hai exclaimed. "Although I haven't tasted it yet, I know it's right just by smelling the aroma. All of you, come and help. Sister, if you have any other instructions, just use them. They are all my people. If they can't do anything else, they can always keep the place under control."

"Brother Hai, please take care of the old man who just came with us. He's old, so find him a place to rest. We'll go find him when we're done." Qin Huiyin said with a smile while working. "As for the others, they're not needed for now. The few of us are enough."

"Don't worry, I've arranged a room for that old man to rest. Xiao Li, bring some food to that old man. I'll give him whatever he wants."

"Okay, Brother Hai."
