MTL - Dali Temple Small Dining Room-Chapter 336 fish ball soup (1)

  Chapter 336 Fish Ball Soup (1)

  When it was approaching noon, Wen Mingtang, A Bing and Tang Yuan lifted the soup pot from the stove and put it on the stool. The soup pot is much deeper than the pot next to it. If it is placed on the countertop, the chef who divides the dishes and makes the soup may have to walk on stilts to do it smoothly. It is just right to place on the small footstool, and it fits smoothly.

After the soup pot was set, Wen Mingtang easily lifted the lid of the pot. It was time for lunch: this big pot of fish ball soup was very hot, so you can let off some heat in advance, so that when everyone in Dali Temple came to have lunch, the fish ball soup The soup is hot, not hot.

  As the lid of the pot was lifted, the heat gathered on the soup surface dissipated, and the three serving the soup instinctively glanced at the soup in the soup pot.

   What I made today is the fish ball soup made from the fish body left over from the fish head yesterday. Deboning, removing thorns, beating repeatedly, stirring and starching, making fish **** can be said to be an extremely labor-intensive job. Making this fish ball soup yesterday almost relieved Ah Bing, who was most energetic in the past.

   Fortunately, the fish **** are ready, so it doesn’t take much effort to make lunch today.

   This large pot of fish ball soup can be said to be a big meat soup. Except for the little chopped green onion, the rest is fish. But the soup head of such a big meat soup looks very clear, because Gein was skimmed off the top of the relationship.

   However, although the soup is clear, it tastes extremely delicious. The tender white fish **** are floating on the surface of the soup, dotted with green onion in the middle.

Because lunch was prepared in advance, there was a lot of food in the morning, and they were still not hungry, so Wen Mingtang and the others did not rush to eat before everyone had lunch, but prepared to take a rest first, and wait until lunch was over At the time, when you are hungry, sit down and eat slowly.

  It’s not until noon when there is still a cup of tea, and I can still play for a while, thinking about the snow I saw on the way to the ice cellar, the glutinous rice **** took three steps and two steps, and trotted out of the public kitchen.

  As soon as he left the public kitchen and the yard, he couldn't help exclaiming: "It's snowing so hard!"

   Isn't it? Wen Mingtang, who followed Tangyuan, came out, and after more than an hour, the outside was already covered in silver, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated in the kitchen's yard.

  Looking at the scene in front of him, Tangyuan couldn’t help expressing emotion again when thinking of the people in Dali Temple going out earlier: “It’s another heavy snow day that Liu Sicheng and the others don’t like, and it’s easy to cover up the scene!”

   "The case they went out today is not a cover-up," A Bing frowned at Tang Yuan, and hurriedly said, "Didn't the murderer surrender himself?"

Liu Sanqing's murderer and Liu Sanqing's death have no objection, but...Looking at the vast expanse of whiteness in the Liu family's mansion, there was only a vast expanse of whiteness on the ground that was piled with rough stones when they came that day, and it was parked on the wagon in the backyard Also covered by heavy snow, Liu Yuan sighed for no reason, then turned his head and said to Bai Zhu: "It's been a few days!"

  In a few days, Liu Sanqing's rough stones had been sold out, and there was really some bloodstains on the car that transported the rough stones, so there might not be much left.

   "Lin Shaoqing?" Bai Zhu looked back at Lin Fei and said, "So..."

   "No problem." Glancing at the white space in front of him, Lin Fei said, "I have something to ask Liu Sanqing's men."

  The men who followed Liu Sanqing on weekdays also showed a layer of sadness on their faces at this time. Because of Liu Sanqing's death, the stewards and guards who used to be very tight-lipped in the past cooperated to tell the original matter.

"Master really lied first. I'm waiting for Chang'an, which arrived a few days earlier." The steward who was called in for questioning said, "Because the trip went smoothly and there was no delay on the way, I came back early. The master asked me to Let’s clear up the open space in the yard, so that the rough stone can be placed conveniently.”

   As far as the manager is concerned, a few days earlier and a few days later are not a big deal. Liu Sanqing confessed in advance that he didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't say anything.

  This is especially true for guards.

"The rough stones are piled up outside the city. I rented an abandoned barn and piled them up for a few days." The guard said, "It's not a precious thing, it's very heavy. Who wouldn't want to steal it? Someone broke in that day We were taken aback at the time, but fortunately, the master reminded us that day, saying that when we transported the stones into the warehouse, many villagers were watching, and they might come out of curiosity to make trouble. If there is trouble, we will expel it. Waiting is worth the night, this night is really not worth it!"

  Of course, it wasn’t that the villagers were out of curiosity to make trouble, but that Shi Funian came to steal the stones.

"I was chatting at the time, and I heard a sound of rolling stones. I was startled by the sound. When I rushed over, I saw the stones on the mountain that had been piled up rolling down to the ground. There was blood on it, and it seemed that the stole stone who did not know whether it was trouble or theft was injured." The guard said, "The master said that since you saw blood, you should report it to the official! I will go to Jingzhao Mansion later, Jingzhao After the mansion came over, they checked and found that the stones were not missing, and there was not much blood, the Taoist thought he was injured by a stone, and he was afraid that I would wait for the guards to catch him, and he would run away when there was a sound."

  Hearing this, Lin Fei nodded and asked the guard: "What about after that? Have you ever continued to be on duty?"

   This question is not surprising at all, but when the guard who was answering seriously heard this, he obviously hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Not anymore."

As for the reason, before Lin Fei could open his mouth, the guard said it himself: "The master has counted and found that there are many stones. The sidewalk looks like a big and heavy stone. Even if a thief wants to steal it, it is not easy to steal it. You don't have to worry too much. , told me to lock the warehouse and check whether the doors and windows of the warehouse are locked, and then let me go back to the city first." At this point, as if he was afraid that Lin Fei and others might misunderstand, the guard hurriedly explained, " That is to say, go home and rest for two days, and only come to transport stones when the steward has cleared up the space. After all, I have been away for a few months, so I miss my family."

  They were just paid to work. Since the master was sympathetic, he went home after being grateful, and no longer insisted. Stones are invulnerable to fire and water, so what is there to worry about?

   "Where's the key to the warehouse?" Lin Fei asked the guard again, "Who handed it to you after you left?"

   "It's from the master." The guard said.

  Lin Fei nodded, and didn't ask about the warehouse anymore, but instead asked the guard: "Your master went out to drink flowers and wine last night, didn't he take you with him?"

  As soon as these words came out, a hint of embarrassment flashed across the guard's face, but facing Lin Fei's serious expression, he still said, "This kind of thing...how could it take us?"

"What does this have to do with it? The big deal is that you have to keep watch not far away." Lin Fei said this, he didn't see the embarrassment on everyone's expressions, and continued to ask: "His family is also rich, and what's more, This business is deep, and there may be more than one enemy like Shi Funian, if you don't take you out, aren't you afraid of being revenged?"
