MTL - Dali Temple Small Dining Room-Chapter 304 Spicy Chicken (6)

  Chapter 304 Spicy Chicken (6)

   Before Mrs. Hou could approach, the curtain of the carriage was raised. First, a pair of four or five-year-old children jumped out, and then a young couple, who were supposed to be the parents of the children. After touching the heads of the two children, the young couple took the children by the hand and walked to the carriage beside them, helping the people in the carriage out.

  The first one to come out was a middle-aged woman, about the same age as Mrs. Hou, but her complexion was much more haggard than that of Mrs. Hou, who had a smooth and harmonious husband and wife.

  After the middle-aged woman got out of the carriage, she quickly turned around and helped the last gray-haired old woman out of the carriage.

  Lin Fei followed Mrs. Hou and looked at the guests of the Jingyun Hou Mansion. He was a little surprised when he saw the old woman with gray hair.

In fact, from the previous letters, without Madam Hou's introduction, he could guess the identities of these people. The gray-haired old woman must be Madam Lu who saved Madam Hou back then. She is quite haggard at the same age as Madam Hou The woman must be Mrs. Lu's daughter. That young couple should be the son and daughter-in-law born to Mrs. Lu's daughter, that is, Mrs. Lu's grandson and grandson-in-law, and the younger children should be the children of the grandson and grandson-in-law.

Among these people, even though Mrs. Lu's hair has already turned gray and she is the oldest, she is probably "a beauty who has never been defeated by time". The most outstanding one.

  From Mrs. Lu's current appearance, she can also vaguely see a bit of her youthful elegance, she must be a rare beauty.

   After helping Madam Lu get off the carriage, the family turned around and walked towards Madam Hou and Lin Fei.

   After exchanging polite greetings, Mrs. Hou took the initiative to help the gray-haired Mrs. Lu, and chatted while walking: "If it weren't for Madam, I would have fallen in Sichuan and Shu."

Mrs. Lu patted Mrs. Hou's hand, and looked at Mrs. Hou with gentle eyes: "The second young lady was as old as my family back then, and she had such a beautiful appearance. Heart, want to drive people to death!"

  Mrs. Hou was the second daughter in the family when she was not married, and she met when she was young. It is not surprising that she is used to calling her the second lady.

   Madam Hou's eyes turned red when she heard the words, and she said to Madam Lu: "At that time, Madam was the only one who saved me. Xi Niang accompanied me to study and made medicine for me!"

When "Xiang Niang" was mentioned, the haggard middle-aged woman showed a smile on her face, looked at Mrs. Zheng, and said, "Xiniang also likes the second miss, and the second miss is very kind, and taught Qian Mother has a lot of things."

   What Zheng’s first daughter has been exposed to and learned since she was a child is not comparable to that of ordinary women. She has indeed learned a lot from Miss Zheng Er.

It's a pity that people can't stay in their youth forever. Seeing the haggard look on Qian Niang's face, Mrs. Hou didn't say much, she just reached out and hugged her: the husband's family resolutely reconciled, and brought their son back By Mrs. Lu's side, the mother and daughter raised their son (grandson), and now it's hard work.

Without mentioning the past, Mrs. Hou glanced at Lin Fei, who was quiet as if he didn't exist after exchanging greetings, and said, "That's all! I'll leave you here and you won't be able to speak. I'd better go back to your Dali Temple go!"

  Lin Fei was not polite when he heard the words, he immediately raised his hand, said "Thank you mother!" and left.

  Going so fast, Madam Hou shook her head helplessly. Fortunately, Madam Lu and others at the side didn't take it seriously. After all, Madam Hou mentioned the temper of the second son as early as in the letter.

   It was just that Lin Fei took up the position of Dali Temple Shaoqing in Dali Temple, and several people were quite surprised.

   "It's not easy to hear about that yamen," Mrs. Lu looked at Lin Fei's leaving back and said, "Why did you go to that yamen?"

   Madam Hou said helplessly: "He likes it, but we can't help it."

  Madam Lu nodded, looked away, returned to the carriage with Madam Hou, and headed towards Jingyun Hou Mansion.

  …

  …

  In the public kitchen, Wen Mingtang was still puzzled.

   "Since the guests have come today, then today is going to be a welcome feast. How can it be a few days before the reception banquet is arranged?"

"Those guests who have been living in the nunnery for a long time have to eat vegetarian food for a few days, and then they can eat a meat meal after a few days." Liu Yuan said, clicked his lips, and couldn't help shaking his head. Such meat-loving people are not suitable for cultivation, and it is really uncomfortable not to eat meat for a meal!"

  Wen Mingtang smiled when he heard the words, and looked down at the menu in his hand again: the content on the menu is very detailed, including the ingredients used and the methods. It can be seen that this master Xing is a meticulous person.

  After knowing it well, he handed the menu back to Liu Yuan, who was already chatting with Ji Caimai and others about the case.

   "Is there any progress? Not really!" Liu Yuan shook his head and said, "I visited the market these days, and I was scared to death by the rumors in the market."

   Is there such a thing? The delicious glutinous rice **** eaten by peeling sugar and stir-fried chestnuts turned to look at Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuandao: "Because Feng Shiling's body was cut up and related to the butcher, people in the market spread rumors that Hu Siming killed Feng Shiling and sold his body to The bun shop that made meat buns has been opened, and now they are being sold as meat buns."

He was eating Zhengxiang glutinous rice **** with fried chestnuts, and he was shocked when he heard the words, and his face turned pale: "My father bought meat buns for supper last night, and he said they were sold cheaply at the bun shop. Give one away, I... I also ate one!" At this point, Tangyuan subconsciously covered her mouth, thinking of the meat bun that she ate in the middle of the night, she suddenly felt sour water in her stomach, and she had the urge to feel nauseous .

  Hearing this, Liu Yuan glanced at the glutinous rice **** that were about to spit out, and said, "Are you stupid? Then Feng Shiling's body has been pieced together, but you still forgot?"

   Tangyuan let out an "oh", and then heaved a sigh of relief remembering this incident.

"However, there are so many people in the market, and I don't know where the news came out. As a result, the meat buns in several bun shops can't be sold, so they have to buy one and get one free." Liu Yuan said, "Old Yuan should just watch It’s okay to buy it cheap.”

  The rumor this time must be false, Liu Yuan knew it in his heart, but...

   "This is not the first time that people have been killed and made into meat buns." Liu Yuan said, "I heard that many years ago there were rumors that butchers killed people and sold them to meat bun shops to make meat buns."

  Compared to the amazement of Tang Yuan, A Bing and others, Wen Mingtang was a little speechless: the rumors of this kind of human flesh buns really existed in ancient and modern times!

"I don't know the age of the rumor. It is said that someone bribed the butcher and joined forces to murder a wealthy couple of merchants. In order not to be discovered, he..." Liu Yuan made a gesture of wiping his neck to everyone. , said, "Butcher, it has something to do with these rumors!"

It’s just that he was as timid as Tangyuan and was frightened again. Liu Yuan paused, and then quickly continued: “However, I have asked the little officials who manage files in the warehouse about this, and I have never heard of it in the past thirty or forty years. Such a case, I guess it’s just a rumor in the market.”
