Chapter 124

"Master Wangyue, I'm here. I brought you your favorite meal."

As usual, a Yao opened the lunch box to take out today's dishes: "today is the water chestnut soup. Brown sugar ginger tea also has the moonlight in the lotus pond fried with yam, water celery, CI Shi and lotus root slices... Master moon watching?" After reporting the dish name, ah Yao didn't get a response from Wangyue. She couldn't help but make a confused voice. With the light through the narrow vent on the wall, she narrowed her eyes and swam in the cell. Finally, she found a black shadow in the darkness.

"Master moon watching? Master Wangyue? " Ah Yao called.

For a long time, the moon hummed a hum from her nose. The voice was very low.

Then, ah Yao saw the black shadow moving and getting closer and closer. Across the iron fence, ah Yao saw the haggard face looking at the moon. Her nose couldn't help being sour. Tears were brewing in her eyes, like broken beads falling.

"Shifu..." ah Yao choked and was sad that the state of looking at the moon was getting worse day by day. She held the hand looking at the moon. The hot heat from the palm shocked her and lowered her head. She went to visit the moon's forehead again - the most worried thing happened - looking at the moon had a fever!

Being trapped in a dark cell without knowing the age of the season itself is a punishment. There is no freedom, no communication, and even light has not given alms. In wet and dirty places, people's spirit and psychology are tortured.

She looked at the moon well before she left yesterday. Why did she suddenly fall ill today? What's worse, the magistrate of the county has been quiet, and he doesn't know when Wangyue will be locked up. There will be no doctor in the prison!

"Ah Yao, your hands are so cold... Aren't you wearing enough clothes? The weather is changeable these days. I'm not here. Your child is fooling around again. "

The moon looked at the moon and touched it a few times. It was as angry as a hairspring.

The climate is changeable these days. The trace of spring has completely left. Fireflies are seen by the river at night, but her moon watching master has blurred the time in prison.

A Yao was afraid to cry when she heard her tears. She was afraid that Wangyue would be more worried and worse for her health. She cheered up and smiled: "master Wangyue, I brought brown sugar ginger water. Come and drink water first, and then eat."

A Yao is very glad that she also brought this. Ginger water can drive away cold and sweat. "The bird's nest says I put special brown sugar. It's sweet and spicy. I say it's too spicy. I don't dare to drink it. Add more sugar to transfer my feeling. You can try it."

Feed Wangyue to drink ginger water. Wangyue spits out her tongue. It seems that she is a little more energetic. She has the strength to joke: "Oh, it's really hot. How much ginger did you put in?"

"Hey, hey, master, eat." A Yao smiled and handed the rice. She secretly planned to find a doctor to see Wangyue again this afternoon.

"I can't eat any more." After a few mouthfuls, I stopped chopsticks at the moon. Maybe it's because she has a small appetite when she is ill, or maybe she just filled a large pot of ginger water. Ah Yao didn't think much about it. She gave the moon watching probe the temperature, felt the thin sweat in her palm, and began to sweat. Turning worry into joy, she took the dishes and chopsticks like a stream of kindness, took them back to the food box, and took them out for treatment: "master moon watching, how much is left of fried rice cakes and meat floss? If you're hungry, you can eat some rice cakes to fill in."

"HMM... not to mention this, let me ask you, is something wrong with Zuixian building?" The moon asked eagerly.

A Yao was surprised. What happened in the morning? How does Wangyue know... Is it him“ Master, has Meng Qianxiu been here? I knew he had no good intention of taking me to Zuixian building. He was waiting for us here! "

"Well, he's been here, so what's going on?"

A Yao gnashes her teeth. Meng Qianxiu is likely to be the initiator of the "food poisoning". He set his location above the diners with stomachache. The farce deliberately pointed out that this is the industry of looking at the moon at the beginning, and then disappeared soon. He came to Nanxun prison to "tell" looking at the moon about Zui xianlou, no matter whether Zui xianlou can solve the conflict in the end, The moon watching with closed stimulus news is his ultimate goal, so that he can take advantage of it.

A Yao holds the hand of Wangyue. If this is the reason why Wangyue falls ill, she will solve this knot now. He must not do it!

"Listen to me. The matter of Zui xianlou has been solved. It seems that the idle man invited by Wang's drunken shrimp came to blackmail in an attempt to slander the reputation of Zui xianlou. The diners and I found evidence on the spot to prove the innocence of Zui xianlou; In fact, it was Meng Qianxiu's plot against you. "

"It's time. Let's go." The jailer came to urge.

Ah Yao said that he knew it. Thank you, brother cha. He continued to seize the time to talk to Wangyue: "master, Meng Qianxiu does things to force you to obey. Only you are there. No matter how big the storm is outside, we can deal with it. You are the backbone of me and the bird's nest and our weakness. Please take care of yourself. "

The jailer drove a Yao out of Nanxun prison and informed a Yao that her visit fee would rise.

"Brother Cha, the business also pays attention to the fine water flow. What's the difference between killing a chicken and laying an egg?" A Yao tried to argue.

The jailer smiled contemptuously, "I'm a rough Lu man. I don't understand what to kill chickens and eggs, but I know very well that you can't let go of your relatives. You have to go and see her, don't you? In short, if you come tomorrow, you will be seventy Liang silver a person. "

A Yao tightened her lips and suddenly had a flash of light. Why should Meng Qianxiu be a demon? They paid the bill. Since they want to raise the price, they should die together, kill each other, turn around and walk slowly, and say, "Alas, I'm so angry. The adopted son of the richest man in Jiangliu County next door often comes to look for the moon. Instead of staring at him, they stare at the children. The real fat sheep can really have fun."

She said while Yu Guang secretly glanced at the two prison guards, and sure enough, she saw them looking at each other. Thinking deeply, ah Yao added a fire: "Alas, it's the man who has the money to ask the moon to cook for him every day. It's really angry, but it's useful to say so much. It doesn't take more than ten liang of silver to go in..."

"Wait!" One of the jailers ran up, "what's that man's name and what does he look like? Why do you say that? "

"You've seen that man in his thirties. He's tall, white and unnecessary. He has a straight eyebrow, apricot eyes and a thin upper lip. He's a romantic and amorous scholar. The gentle scholar likes the little girl very much... But I'm jealous when you charge him so little money and ask us so much money." A Yao snorted coldly and turned to go home. She had to go back and discuss with the bird's nest.

Also, if you don't pit Meng Qianxiu together, she won't be surnamed Jiang!

Her head was hot and her whole body was sweating. The more she thought about it, the more angry she was. She couldn't vent her evil fire.

Kicking a stone, she looked up and saw the lanterns under the eaves of her house. She was almost home before she knew it.

As soon as she took a step, ah Yao took it back. No, she can't go home like this. Ah Yao kicked the wall, but... She was still angry. She simply rushed to the river and shouted, "ah -"

"Girl, what are you crazy about!" The boatman on the river responded to her.

With a sigh of relief, ah Yao touched her heart and calmed down before running back - later, the bird's nest will be worried!

"You're late today. Is there something wrong with you? Or something happened on the way? " The bird's nest waited for ah Yao to return on the porch. Seeing her figure, he put down his worries and asked urgently.

A Yao nodded, talked about the cause and effect, and said what she said to Wangyue: "... Meng Qian repaired the trap to harm us. We have to find a way to jump out of his script and can't be led by him."

At first, when the bird's nest heard that Wangyue was ill, it got up. Then it heard ah Yao talk about Meng Qianxiu's actions. It hit the tea table with a fist and his eyes were angry. Finally, it heard that the jailer raised the price and ah Yao said he wanted to put Meng Qianxiu into the pit. It seemed that the puffer fish was let out of breath and pulled out a smile: "I don't know whether it should be said that the house leaks and rains at night, or the tiger falls flat in the sun and is bullied by dogs. Oh, I'll look for the silver. I'll see the doctor for the girl tomorrow. "

"Then I won't go tomorrow. One hundred and forty-two people spend too much money. I'll study the food list and cooking, as well as the confessions of Mrs. Qin and the Zhou family to see if there is anything I can do." A Yao pondered and thought of the jailer's price increase. Her heart was heavy. She had to find a way to make money and clear her grievances for looking at the moon.

"Well, that's OK." Ah Yao wrote everything on her face. The bird's nest didn't bother to see what she was thinking. She comforted: "I didn't tell you there was Zuixian building under the girl's name before. The shopkeeper still took care of the Zuixian building when the girl paid for it. When the solar term comes, the girl goes to teach a new dish, and the Zuixian building will send bonus silver every six months. It's not a big deal. We just take the money, Don't worry. You don't have to worry about silver. Your family is rich. "

At ordinary times, ah Yao must be stunned, and then said that she would never let go of holding the moon watching thigh. But she was so sad. Her moon watching master, since the day she knew her, she has been living like a beautiful girl. She has been proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and flowers out of the kitchen. When she enters the kitchen, she sees the light of the knife when she transports the knife, the pot moves, the stars change, and has the momentum of scooping the world, Have you ever suffered such hardships, and such days don't know when they will end.

"Don't think about it. The days have to go on. The girl is our backbone and weakness. Are we not the palm and back of the girl's hand? We should all be good. Let's eat. I've made a new dish. Try it. If it's delicious, I'll send it to the girl tomorrow. "

After Wangyue entered Nanxun prison, she and the bird's nest looked for people everywhere to dredge up and try to investigate the truth. Through the relationship between warden Gao and Zhao Sanniang, entering the prison once brought them convenience. She also got confessions and reports from all parties. However, the food at home was not as exquisite as before, and most of the food boxes were brought from Zuixian building.

On the table are cold Amoy of Sophora japonica Leaves and pill soup. The color of the pill soup is clear. There are diced bamboo shoots and lotus roots in the soup. Close to it, you can smell the elegant lotus and the sweet smell of osmanthus.

Under the gaze of the bird's nest, a Yao tasted, "delicious! The sweet scented osmanthus seems to fill the mouth with chicken... And fish are very fresh! And wine... And fish sauce? It's very fragrant. It doesn't have any fishy smell with the soup, and the taste is also very refreshing. I believe master Wangyue will like it! "

The bird's nest smiled: "I mixed herring and chicken, minced ginger and dried osmanthus, pickled with lotus petal wine and kneaded into balls; At the end of the soup, use fresh lotus leaves and lotus flowers, boil the flowers, boil the balls in water, wait until the balls are half floating, put down the lotus root and bamboo shoots, season with only a little salt, and freshen with oyster sauce, not onions. The strong smell of onions will destroy the fragrance of flowers. "

"Wow!" Ah Yao has bright eyes. She just heard... "Oyster sauce?"

"Well, oyster sauce, girl, she will stick to it!"
