The two cooks nodded. They all knew the stove and the chimney. It was this oven, which was really novel.

Seemingly seeing the doubts in the eyes of the two cooks, Gu Xiaoyou opened the oven door and said, "Come closer and take a look."

The two cooks followed the instructions and walked over to carefully observe the inside of the oven.

"This is a shelf for storing food. It can be placed flat or hung upright, but it must be coordinated with the use of hooks." Gu Xiaoyou picked up the hook next to the stove and pointed inside to explain in detail.

"That's it." After hearing this, the two cooks looked enlightened and praised: "The oven is so exquisitely designed, it's really ingenious."

"The wisdom of the people." Gu Xiaoyou smiled dryly. She remembered Mu Wuchen's words and couldn't say anything about searching online.

"Then I'll teach you how to marinate roast chicken and duck first, and then I'll teach you how to use the oven."

"Okay, I will follow your orders." The two cooks responded.

Gu Xiaoyou returned to the kitchen with the two cooks and moved the vegetable basket to the chopping board: "Here are the roosters and ducks that I selected. From now on, you can choose according to these standards."

As he said that, he took out the ingredients from the vegetable basket.

The two cooks came over and looked at it carefully: "We remember it."

"Very good. Now each of you will take a little rooster and follow me to the pool." Gu Xiaoyou ordered and walked out of the kitchen quickly.

The two cooks brought the ingredients and followed.

Gu Xiaoyou first taught them how to handle the roosters, from cleaning them to preparing salt water to putting them in the freezer.

The two chefs did not look down upon the process because the steps were too simple. Instead, they treated the ingredients very seriously.

Gu Xiaoyou gave Mu Wuchen a thumbs up in his heart, the person he sent was really good.

"The little rooster needs to be kept in the ice cellar for six hours. Remember the current time, and then we will go to the kitchen to process the duck." Gu Xiaoyou warned.

The two cooks nodded, glanced at the sundial placed in the yard, and recorded the time in their minds.

"The processing of ducks is more complicated than that of roosters. First, scald them carefully with boiling hot water. Don't leave any corners untouched. You have to scald them at least five times." Gu Xiaoyou said while cooking, and the cooks followed suit.

Take action.

"Be careful of scalding." Gu Xiaoyou reminded, while handling the duck, he observed the actions of the two cooks.

Seeing the two of them handling the duck carefully, I felt a little more satisfied.

Soon the duck was blanched, and Gu Xiaoyou taught them how to prepare the sauce, how to brush it on the duck, and how to massage the duck. The three of them worked for half an hour before finishing the duck.

Finally reaching the last step, Gu Xiaoyou said: "Put the duck on the bottle filled with water and let it dry in a ventilated place for six hours."

The two cooks followed the instructions and placed the duck in a ventilated position in the kitchen.

"There is a clepsydra here, you can mark the time." Gu Xiaoyou pointed to the timing tool specially prepared for the cooks in the kitchen, and asked a little nervously: "Do you know how to recognize the clepsydra?"

"Yes." The two cooks replied, silently writing down the time in their hearts.

Gu Xiaoyou breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. She couldn't understand a clepsydra. She only knew that the one she bought was a floating arrow type clepsydra. A set of four pots was the most accurate. She spent a lot of money to buy it.

.

After all, delicious food requires precise time measurement, and it is worth spending no matter how much money you spend.

Fortunately, the cooks can understand the clepsydra, otherwise she would have spent money on it in vain.

When the cooks weren't paying attention, Gu Xiaoyou glanced at the time on his phone and secretly screamed, "Oh no!"

The cooks came in the morning, and it took some time to interview and sign the contract.

It was already close to eleven o'clock when the little rooster and duck were ready, and it would be midnight six hours later.

Gu Xiaoyou patted his forehead: "The time was not chosen well. If I had known better, I would have done it in the evening, so I could do it in the morning."

"What should we do?" Gu Xiaoyou touched his chin and thought about countermeasures.

The two cooks had already noted the time and were patiently waiting aside for Gu Xiaoyou's next instructions.

After pondering for a long time, Gu Xiaoyou said apologetically: "Due to my mistake, the rooster and duck can be cooked around midnight, so I would like to ask two chefs to stay in the backyard, and I will teach you how to roast chicken in the middle of the night.

Roast Duck."

The two cooks looked at each other. This was the first time they had encountered such a new thing since they became cooks.

“But it’s up to the boss to make the decision.”

"Thank you, then I will give the two masters a holiday now. You come here with the necessities and rest early in the afternoon. I will call you two in the evening." Gu Xiaoyou said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't plan it well.

"

"Boss, don't blame yourself. We have to move here sooner or later. It's okay to move a day earlier." The cooks said cheerfully.

"Then you two, go get ready. I'll leave the key to you." Gu Xiaoyou handed the backup keys into the hands of the cooks, expressed his apology again, and let them leave.

In the blink of an eye, it was midnight and the yard was pitch black.

Gu Xiaoyou yawned and got up from the room on the second floor of the medical center.

As soon as she made some movement, there was a gentle knock on the door: "Miss, have you gotten up?"

"I'm up." Gu Xiaoyou responded and washed her face with cold water in the basin. The cold water made her wake up a little instantly.

Zhixia and Zhou pushed the door open and came in. Zhou said angrily: "My little ancestor, you have to use warm water to wash your face. What if you get hurt by using cold water?"

Saying that, he quickly wiped Gu Xiaoyou's face with a handkerchief.

"Use cold water to refresh yourself. Besides, I'm in good health." Gu Xiaoyou chuckled and coaxed: "Okay Sister Zhou, I won't use cold water next time. Let's go to the restaurant quickly and don't miss the time."

"Alas." Mrs. Zhou sighed and said helplessly: "You."

"Hey, let's go." Gu Xiaoyou took Zhou's arm and walked outside.

Zhixia quickly picked up a lantern and followed.

The three people walked around from the backyard of the medical clinic to the backyard of the restaurant. The road in the backyard was much darker than Anyang Street in Lutan. It was quiet and there was no light at all.

The autumn wind was rustling in the middle of the night, and Gu Xiaoyou couldn't help but shiver when the cold wind blew.

She rubbed the goosebumps on her arms and lowered her voice unconsciously: "Fortunately, I have you with me, otherwise I wouldn't dare to go out so late."

"Hmph, if Zhixia and I hadn't insisted, you would have insisted on us going home." Mrs. Zhou snorted and complained dissatisfied.

"Sister Zhou, please forgive me for my ignorance." Gu Xiaoyou said in a flattering manner.
