Gu Xiaoyou looked at the messy backyard and couldn't help but hold his forehead with a headache.

What kind of people did she invite? The King of Destruction?

Gu Xiaoyou sighed silently and frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

It stands to reason that when she comes at this time, there should be a cook practicing cooking skills in the backyard. Why is there no one there today?

She went to the kitchen and looked around, but saw no one, so she went to the residential area in the backyard and knocked on the door.

"Is anyone here?"

After waiting for a while, no one answered the door, so she knocked hard and asked, "Is anyone there?"

Still no one responded. When Gu Xiaoyou was about to knock on the door again, the door to the backyard opened, and the new cooks, three men, supported each other, and the two cooks walked in holding hands and covering their stomachs.

Seeing their pale faces, Gu Xiaoyou was frightened and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

The cooks looked at each other and asked the eldest cook to answer. The older cook smiled weakly: "We used the oven to cook food last night, but we started to have stomach upset in the middle of the night. I couldn't stand it anymore this morning, so I went to the hospital for treatment.

Take some medicine."

"What have you eaten?" Gu Xiaoyou welcomed them in and helped them sit down in the pavilion one by one.

"That's it...that's what's on the table." The cook pointed guiltily at the table.

Gu Xiaoyou glanced at the dark food on the table and said helplessly: "The color looks inedible. I want you to study it, but you can't use yourself as a guinea pig for experiments."

"We are also curious. The cooked food smells pretty good. Although the skin is a bit dark, the inside is quite good." The cook peeled off a dark object and showed it to Gu Xiaoyou.

Gu Xiaoyou didn't even look at it, and waved his hand: "Don't you all have common sense? You can't eat burnt food. Eating too much can cause cancer."

"Causes cancer?" The cooks covered their stomachs and looked at each other.

Really too lazy to explain, Gu Xiaoyou said: "It's just that you will get seriously ill, and you can't eat it anyway. Forget it, give me the medicine and I will make it for you."

"We can just make the medicine ourselves," the cook said weakly.

"Come on, I'll do it. I'll give you a day off today. Go back to your room and rest." Gu Xiaoyou took the medicine bag from their hands and said impatiently.

"Thank you, boss." The cooks, whose legs were still weak, no longer refused Gu Xiaoyou's kindness and helped each other back to the room.

Gu Xiaoyou processed the medicinal materials, found a pottery stove, lit a fire and put a casserole on it to cook the medicine.

When Zhixia and Mrs. Zhou came over, what they saw was Gu Xiaoyou with his elbows on his knees, his chin supported by his hands, fanning himself with a cattail leaf fan, looking at the casserole for cooking medicine in a daze.

Zhou glanced around, looked at the mess and said, "What's going on? Where are the cooks? Why did you cook the medicine?"

Gu Xiaoyou lazily raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the residential area with his cattail fan: "I have diarrhea."

"As for the yard, it's all the fault of these idiots." Gu Xiaoyou sighed: "I shouldn't say anything about my own research on food. I'm really speechless."

Mrs. Zhou was a little helpless when she heard this. She didn't know what to say and shook her head: "I'll clean up the yard."

"Slave, please come and cook the medicine. Miss, please have a rest," Zhixia said.

Gu Xiaoyou put on a towel and opened the lid of the casserole: "The medicine is ready, please bring five bowls."

"Yes." Zhixia responded, quickly walked into the kitchen, took a tray, and came out with a bowl and spoon.

"You hold it, I'll pour the medicine." Gu Xiaoyou put the five bowls on the tray, then raised the casserole to pour the medicine.

The casserole was a bit heavy, so Gu Xiaoyou worked with both hands and quickly poured five bowls of medicine.

"Send it to them, slave."

"Go." Gu Xiaoyou put the casserole on the earthenware stove and waved her hand. She didn't want to see the cooks for the time being.

Zhixia went to deliver medicine. Gu Xiaoyou and Zhou were cleaning up the backyard together. They had just put away the iron plates on the table when the cooks at the breakfast shop came back from closing time.

When the head chef saw Gu Xiaoyou wiping the ashes on the oven with a rag, he quickly came forward: "I'll do it."

"Yeah." Gu Xiaoyou didn't refuse and let the head chef take over.

Other cooks also hurried into the yard and started cleaning up in the backyard.

Gu Xiaoyou watched them clean up, thought for a moment and asked, "Didn't you use the oven with them last night?"

She remembered that when she left last night, the cooks from the two shops were together.

"To tell the boss, we cooked the roasted eggplant once and then left." The head chef replied.

"You are smart and escaped."

"Escaped?" Li Ping swept the floor and asked in surprise.

"Yes, your subordinates are really too stupid." Gu Xiaoyou used the oven to cook barbecue and told them about their diarrhea.

The cooks who were cleaning the yard couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing. These newcomers were so funny.

Li Ping said dumbfounded: "This is all the slave's fault. The slave's family should be in charge of them."

"It's true that you didn't supervise it well enough, so I'll fine you half a month's wages." Gu Xiaoyou said with a straight face: "But I also have a responsibility, and I shouldn't let you do research. If the two are offset, half a month's wages will not be deducted.

But you have to think about how to manage them."

Li Ping said gratefully: "Thank you boss for your magnanimity. I will definitely manage them well. Can I go and see them first?"

"Go." Gu Xiaoyou waved his hand and continued to clean up the yard.

"Thank you, boss." Li Ping felt blessed and walked toward the residential area with a serious look on her face.

Zhixia had already delivered the medicine and came back with an empty bowl: "Miss, they took all the medicine."

"Yeah." Gu Xiaoyou responded: "Let's finish cleaning up the yard and go to the medical clinic to study recipes. They are not good and there is no way to train them."

"Oh, I originally had a lot to learn, but I wasted another day." Mrs. Zhou sighed after hearing this.

"It can be regarded as a lesson learned." Gu Xiaoyou hung the insulating gloves on the hook: "Every time we learn something, we gain wisdom. We all learned a lesson from each other."

"It will be good if we all be more rigorous in the future." Zhou said with emotion.

"Yes." Gu Xiaoyou nodded. Seeing that the yard was almost done, he ordered the cooks: "The training will be temporarily suspended today. Wait until they are better before continuing. I will give you a holiday and don't mess with the oven."

It’s moving.”

"Yes, boss." The cooks responded. Even if Boss Gu didn't say anything, they wouldn't dare to use the oven indiscriminately.

Gu Xiaoyou nodded reassuringly, gave a few more instructions, and then left the backyard with Mrs. Zhou and Zhixia and went to the medical center to make new snacks.
