Transmigrating To Ancient Times With A Kitchen

Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “I’m here to make something to eat.”

The kitchen maids all smiled and said attentively, “Then the food you made must be delicious! Miss Jian’s culinary skills are profound. The one you made just now is called…”

The cook girl could not remember for a moment. Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “Wonton.”

!!

“Oh! Yes, it’s wonton!” The cook girl suddenly realized, she said embarrassedly, “The wonton you made is really delicious! We just finished the soup and could not wait to lick the pot. You said that they are all the same ingredients, but how come your cooking is so delicious!”

“Aunties, if you want to learn, I can teach you.”

The cook said in surprise, “Really! Then we have to learn well. The Lord must like to eat it. Sigh, I don’t know why, but the lord we usually cook doesn’t eat much. Maybe it’s not to his liking.”

Thinking of how Jian Qingqing had just finished the soup with a big bowl in her hand, Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “He really likes to eat. If you want to learn, I will teach you a few more dishes. Brother Ming will probably like to eat.”

“That would be great! Thank you, Miss Jian!”

Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “It’s a small matter. You’re welcome.”

The cook asked, “Miss Jian, what are you going to do now?”

Jian Qingqing looked at the milk on the ground and asked curiously, “Wasn’t there a bucket of milk just now? Why is it missing?”

“Oh, that. My cow gave birth to a calf, but there was no milk. I went to another family to get the milk. I just asked my husband to take it back.” A cook asked curiously, “Miss Jian, what do you want the milk for?”

Jian Qingqing said with some embarrassment, “I thought the milk was for drinking, but I didn’t expect it to be for the calf to drink. I was thinking of using it to make food. It seems that it’s unfortunate. I’m really sorry.”

The cook quickly waved her hand and said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. Miss Jian, if you want it, I’ll help you ask. The milk isn’t worth much, but…” She said with some hesitation, “Isn’t the milk for the calf to drink? Can we drink it too?”

At the end of her sentence, she blushed a little.

“Ah?” Jian Qingqing could not help but laugh. She really did not know that people in this era did not drink milk. She also did not know whether it was because there were not many cows in Shifeng County, or if there really was not anyone who drank it in this era. After all, the information in ancient times was kept secret, even if there were people who drank it in other places, basically no one knew about it.

She smiled and said, “Of course we can drink it! If a calf can drink it, why can’t we drink it? Moreover, it’s very nutritious. If a child doesn’t have milk to feed him, we can also feed him boiled milk.”

“Ah?” The kitchen ladies were a little suspicious. “How can a child drink the things that that animal eats? A child is so delicate…”

Jian Qingqing smiled and explained to them, “That milk is not poisonous, so why can’t we drink it? Moreover, cows eat grass, and didn’t the vegetables that we humans eat in the past also become grass? So there’s nothing different. We can all drink it.”

This was the first time the cook girls heard this. They suddenly realized that it made sense.

One of the cook girls said, “Then Miss Jian, I’ll go get some for you. His house is not far from here. I’ll be back soon.”

Jian Qingqing took out a string of copper coins and handed it to the cook girl, saying, “Thank you so much.”
