Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, which is not only practical in the capital, but also in Yucheng. The old couple was hanged in front of the gate of Qin's mansion. Within a day, it spread all over Yucheng. People talked about it and said everything. However, because of the Qin family's position in Yucheng, we talked about it behind our backs. We dare not mention it on the face.
Zhao er's grandmother came to the door and talked with Yuxi about it: "sister, do you think the old couple are too poor. There is no way to appeal, and in the end, this method is used to call injustice. "
Yuxi is also full of sympathy, said: "who said not!"! It's a pity that they died in such a tragic way, and they can't condemn Xu Siye! " The death of the old couple, apart from being condemned by the Qin and Xu families, will not cause them substantial harm.
Grandma Zhao sighed and said, "who says no! The most pitiful thing is that the people in Qin's mansion don't let the corpses be collected, but directly pull the corpses down to the mass graves. "
Yuxi's face was shocked. In this case, the old couple should be buried well to minimize the damage. But she not only didn't do this, but also threw the body to the mass grave. She was not afraid of the people below. She always thought that Xu was a very intelligent person. Now she knows that Xu is a strong man from the outside world. Otherwise, she would not do such a stupid thing: "when is it?"
Grandma Zhao Er nodded, "when I was going out, I listened to my mother-in-law. In other words, she can really tell that the only daughter of the old couple was murdered by her cousin, Xu Siye. Instead of admonishing, she helped the tyranny. If not, the old couple would not have hung in front of her house. "
Yu Xi looked puzzled and asked, "help the tyrant? What do you say? Did Mrs. Qin say hello to the general magistrate in this lawsuit? "
Grandma Zhao Er: "why, my sister doesn't know about it?" With a smile, he said: "my sister is now in peace with the baby. I'm afraid general Yun won't tell you these things. I don't hide this from my sister, that is, Mrs. Qin wrote to Mu Tongjian, asking him to put the case down, and then the big thing turned into nothing. "
When Yuxi saw this, he was too embarrassed to pretend to be stupid again. Yu changed his topic and said, "the officials and the officials are defending each other. It's hard for the ordinary people to be flat headed."
Grandma Zhao doesn't know how to answer this.
Yuxi waved and said, "don't talk about it. It's late. It's December. It's time to prepare new year's products. Sister Tu, what are you going to do for the new year? "
Zhao er's grandmother smiled and said, "there are melon seeds, peanuts, rice sugar, walnuts, dry goods and some fried goods in the south. When you are in the capital, the new year's products will surely be more abundant than here. " That's a prosperous place in the capital. What do you want.
"Yuxi said with a smile:" it can't be said that the capital is good. Every place has its own customs The main thing is to have money. As long as you have money, you can have a good year everywhere. And vice versa.
Grandma Zhao said with a smile, "that's right. By the way, sister Han, many people tell me these days that they want to donate money and do their best for these poor children. I told them, you don't take money. But if they send 100 meters of white noodles to the school, the school will accept them. "
"Yuxi said with a smile:" this school is only for three months, and it will be scattered in the spring. Where is the best way to raise money. Moreover, I have just started. I feel the stones and cross the river. Some things are handled in a mess. If I receive your money, I'm afraid it's not clear. "
Grandma Zhao smiled and said, "your scruples are also right. Don't worry. I have explained to them. By the way, I heard that all the words on the gate of the school were written by you? Is this true? I didn't go to see them, but I heard that they were very well written. "
Yuxi smile: "also reluctantly live, when can't so praise."
They said something for a long time, and Yuxi said with a smile, "stay for lunch! Two days ago, some bacon and sausages were sent from Chuang Tzu. You can taste them then. If you like, take some back. "
"I've heard for a long time that the bacon and sausages you make are very delicious. I'd like to have a try today." Sausages and bacon are ready. The first one to be sent is the restaurant. Yuxi's restaurant is now famous in Yucheng. It's not only good for drinking, but also delicious for food. More importantly, the price won't be too outrageous. So, business is excellent.
At noon, there was a plate of steamed bacon on the table. When grandma Zhao Er saw it, her appetite came up. This piece of meat, fat crystal clear, thin red delicate. Pick up the chopsticks and put a piece into your mouth. The unique flavor of bacon suddenly spreads.
The bacon is fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood. There is a light fragrance in the back. This smell made grandma Zhao take another piece. After eating three pieces in a row, grandma Zhao gave up. It's because she restrained herself from being a guest in someone else's house. Otherwise, she could not eat this dish: "sister Han, how do you make this bacon? Why is it so fragrant? I almost swallowed my tongue just now. " Sausages and bacon have been spread to the Northwest for a long time, so it's not a rare thing, but it's the first time that grandma Zhao has eaten such delicious preserved meat.
Yuxi said with a smile: "bacon and sausages should be done well. The salting process is very important. How much salt to use for each jin of meat, as well as sedan chair, cinnamon, star anise and other ingredients are very important. The time of curing and the rolling during curing are also very important. Every program can't make mistakes, and the taste will be much worse if it's wrong. "
Zhao er's grandmother asked with a smile, "but this bacon also has a light fragrance. If I eat it right, it should be the fragrance of brandy melon? Sister, how did you do it? "
Yuxi said with a smile: "it's not difficult, that is, when smoking and baking, he added the melon skin. When waiting to come out, there will be a light aroma of pear melon on the meat. " Of course, the bacon sent to Yunfu has this fragrance, and there is no restaurant. The restaurant is smoked with cypress branches. There is a unique fragrance of cypress branches in the bacon.
"Sister's mind is really clever," said Grandma Zhao with a smile
Yuxi said with a smile, "I didn't get this out, it was taught by my mother before. But this thing, also taste a fresh, should not eat more The way of life is not to eat more pickled things, but to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. In the northwest, however, this is hard to do. In addition to cabbage is radish, good in white mother will send some bean sprouts and other things to adjust. As for the construction of a warm shed, Yuxi didn't think about it at all. The cost is too big and it's not cost-effective.
After lunch, grandma Zhao went back. Just as Yuxi turned around and entered the room, she heard the servant girl say Xu Wu wanted to see her.
Xu Wu walked in and said, "madam, the fourth master Xu was assassinated in the tavern. Life and death are unknown for the moment." Yuxi has been to the restaurant, the one Yunqing took her to when she was newly married.
Yuxi's heart leaped when he heard the words "tavern", but when he saw Xu Wu's appearance, he was relieved and said, "did the assassin catch it?"
Xu Wu said: "the assassin was killed on the spot by Xu Siye's guard. As for the identity of the assassin, it is not clear for the time being. " When he got the news, he came to tell Yuxi.
Yuxi wondered: "now it's in the limelight, and the main emissary behind the scenes hasn't come out. Does Xu Siye go to the tavern to have a meal? This gall is not something that ordinary people can have. " However, Xu Siye is also very lucky. He will not die in this way.
Xu Wu saw this and explained: "the reporter said that the assassin was the second child of the restaurant. He mixed vegetables into the box, and the guards were not prepared, which made him successful."
In the evening, Yuxi knew that it was not others who assassinated Xu Siye, or the fiance of the woman who was raped by Xu Siye. They have grown up together since childhood, and their marriage date has been set. That woman is going to buy things for marriage, which is seen by Xu Siye. After the woman committed suicide, his fiance disappeared. But people didn't expect him to change his face and work in the tavern.
It's weird. People in industries like restaurants have to be trusted. Otherwise, if you poison the food, it will be a big problem. Therefore, it is questionable how the man entered the tavern.
Yuxi frowned and asked, "what about the man's family?"
Xu Wu shook his head and said, "he is the only one in their family. He hid in the tavern in a different way. I guess he was waiting to kill Xu Siye! "
Yuxi didn't take Xu Wu's words, but said, "once he died, the people behind the scenes couldn't find out." The death of the old couple, as well as the assassination, were carefully designed by someone, who did not know who was the author. Well, the water in Yucheng is getting more and more muddy.
In the evening, when Yunqing came back, he saw Yuxi's face was not good and asked, "what's the matter? Are you not feeling well? "
Yuxi shook his head and said, "No."
Corydalis said next to her, "madam is not comfortable with the old couple who hanged themselves." Originally a happy family, but because of the Xu family, the beast, all four members of the family died.
Yun Qing's face was very ugly, and he said, "who told her these things?" After that, his face became colder. Mom Qu and others have been in the inner court, rarely going out, where would they know these things, nine out of ten is Xu Wu said. It seems that it is necessary for the guard to rectify.
Yuxi waved and let quma and other people go down and said, "I'm worried about it, and I don't know who designed it." What happened these two days is enough to see that the person behind the scenes is a ruthless man.
Yunqing was silent for a while, saying, "this time, it was planned by the enemies of Xu's family. You don't have to worry."
Yuxi is a little surprised: "do you know who it is?"
Yun Qing shook his head and said, "the Xu family has acted recklessly in these years, offending many people and hating many families. I don't know who it is. "
Yuxi was relieved to hear this. She was the enemy of Xu's family, so she didn't worry. What she was afraid of was Yan Wushuang, who was hiding in the dark and knew nothing but his name. It's really the feeling that Yan Wushuang gives her. It's weird. Now it seems that she thought more about it: "I said why Xu family threw the old couple to the mass grave, which was originally the inheritance of Xu family." It's disgusting to have song family before and Xu family after.
Unless it is necessary, as it was last time, Yunqing never commented on other women. This time, he didn't follow Yuxi's words.
