Chapter 7 The wronged maid
With a serious look on his face, Karis came to the kitchen, holding a plate with mutton in his hand, and threw it on the table, spilling the thick soup inside.
The maid was so frightened that she lowered her head, wondering what mistake she had made.
"Ellie, this is what you cooked?" Karis looked very ugly and shouted angrily, "It tastes extremely bad. No wonder the young master doesn't want to eat it. Do you know that the young master is not in good health and needs to supplement his nutrition? If you do this, you will let him eat it."
How do you eat, young master?"
"You also helped in the kitchen of the Earl's castle. It stands to reason that your cooking skills are not so bad. Or maybe you did it on purpose and wanted to eat the mutton yourself."
Ellie immediately knelt down and explained anxiously, "Butler Karis, I didn't do this on purpose. When I was helping in the kitchen, I was mainly responsible for washing dishes. I didn't even cook a few times. I can do it."
Simple toast and vegetable salad, but not good at cooking, especially meat dishes.”
Karis's expression froze, he didn't expect this to be the reason, "Jimmy and Qiesha don't know either?"
"They don't even know how to bake bread. They usually just help me." Ellie said with a tearful voice.
Karis didn't know what to say for a moment, and after a while, he snorted angrily.
It's not directed at Ellie, but at the people in the castle.
Whether it was him as the butler, or the male servants, and the maids, all arrangements were made within the castle. They were assigned to this Ash Town without any potential. Those in the castle must have felt that the Earl had given up on Master Linn, and even the accompanying knights
None, and the quality of the servants arranged was so poor that they couldn't even prepare basic meals.
He could not imagine what his future life would be like. He had just had some hope before, but now it was extinguished by cold water.
"what happened?"
Lin En was thinking about how to take the seeds out when he heard the sound coming from outside. He stood by the window and looked down.
Just when Karis was about to say something, the young master had already left the window.
Lin opened the door and saw two maids in simple clothes standing at the door waiting. Their bodies were shaking due to the wind, their faces were slightly pale, and their exposed thin legs were red from the cold, but they did not dare to leave.
idea.
These two maids, as well as the maid who was being scolded by Karis outside, were arranged by the castle.
When he left the castle, he took three maids and four male servants with him. He said that he would send people over later, but I don't know whether it was true or not.
They are both young, probably only around sixteen or seventeen, and they still have a little childishness on their faces. They have different personalities. Qiansha, who is wearing a plain long skirt, is more restrained, while Jimmy is lively and has the skirt of a girl.
There are a few small flowers embroidered on it.
"You don't have to wait here anymore. I will call you when I have something to do." Lin En was not used to people standing at the door and always felt like they were prying into his secrets.
"Thank you, Master, but Caris will take care of him." Jimmy hesitated.
"I'll talk to Caris."
Jimmy immediately became happy and gave Qiansha a look. They didn't have to guard the young master's door every day, and they were free. However, Qiansha didn't have any excited expression, but there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
Lin En came to the kitchen. This was his first time here. The small kitchen was very simple and there were not many cooking utensils. There were pots on the stove similar to the fireplace, which looked a bit like an earthen stove.
Karis quickly explained the cause of the matter.
Linn frowned.
Ellie knelt on the ground and didn't dare to breathe, for fear that she would be hanged.
Linn didn't have many memories of Ellie. To be precise, if they hadn't followed him to Ash Town, they wouldn't have had any intersection.
"Keep your head up!"
The young master's words made Ellie subconsciously raise her head. Being able to become a maid in the castle was naturally different from the serfs in appearance. Tears ran down her cheeks, giving her a feeling of pear blossoms and rain.
Lin En waved his hand, "I'm in a good mood today, let's just let this matter go, but we still need to pay more attention to our food. Can you improve your cooking skills?"
Ai Li was exempted from punishment and felt relieved. When she heard the young master's words, she nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "When I came here, the grandmother in the kitchen gave me a recipe book, which records
There are a lot of dishes, as long as you give me time, I can definitely make them."
"Oh!" Linn became interested, "Let me take a look."
Ellie immediately found a cookbook. It was said to be a cookbook, but it was actually made from pieces of birch bark. After all, written records here are usually made of papyrus and parchment. Only nobles can have plenty of money.
Go buy it.
Lin En took it and looked through it. There were simple pictures on the bark of the birch tree. It could be seen that the other party had a talent for painting and could exquisitely draw the process of cooking.
Two pieces of birch bark serve as a dish, and there are almost five or six dishes in the thick cookbook.
Lin En's eyes lit up. As a foodie, he naturally had a lot of cooking skills, but he couldn't put them to use. Now this recipe gave him a reason and excuse.
"I took it!" Lynn said.
Ellie was puzzled. She didn't understand why the young master wanted to read the recipe. She still wanted to learn from the recipe, but she didn't dare to object.
Linn walked towards the castle, "Karis!"
Karis immediately trotted after him.
"Collect as many books as possible for me. I'm really bored."
Boredom is just an excuse. He wants to use the excuse of reading more books to demonstrate what he knows in a reasonable way.
"There is one more thing I need you to do. I want to understand the situation of Ash Town, including the territory area, the distribution of people in the town, the problems encountered by the people in the town, etc. Can you do this?"
Karis nodded. These were things that had to be done in the first place. If he hadn't been dealing with the issue of the land curse in the past two days, it wouldn't have been delayed until now.
After returning to the house, Linn stopped and lowered his voice, "You said before that something was not right with Rafe. When you go to understand the situation in the town, check it out. Although he is still useful, you need to know about me.
He is the lord here."
Karis was awe-inspiring, his expression became serious, and he left the castle after making his promise.
Linn came to the terrace on the third floor. From here, he could see Ash Town in the distance and the forest beyond.
There was a faint mist in the town, making it difficult to see clearly. Linn's eyes narrowed slightly. If the castle had arranged knight protection for him, he wouldn't have to treat the mayor of the town with caution.
