Jinyi Music

Chapter 93
The duck I ate at home tonight was old duck bought from an old farmer on the street. When Si Lian came back in the afternoon, she stewed it in a crock pot. The stove was simmering on a small fire for two hours. The water was stewed into half a can of soup. When I got home, the duck meat was just being stewed. When I opened the lid, the aroma of the meat rushed into the main hall and got into my nose, making my mouth water.

Jia Youchuan was the most impatient. When the jar was put on the table, he stood up and poked the duck in the soup with his chopsticks. When the duck meat was stewed, two holes were poked out. Stretch out your hand to pinch the raised duck leg and pull it, the meat of the duck is clearly visible, and the big duck leg is separated from the duck body.

"Father...you eat..."

Jia Youchuan smiled and honored Jia Jincheng, and Jia Jincheng took it with a face full of satisfaction. Jia Youchuan saw that he had accepted it, and hurriedly put down the chopsticks and grabbed the other duck leg into his bowl, and then it was Xiang's turn to strike. All the duck breast meat was pulled into her bowl, and the three sisters moved their chopsticks only afterward.

The duck meat was stewed badly, and it was suffocated in a jar. The smell of the meat had not dissipated. After a little bit of chewing, it slipped into the throat. The whole family took a mouthful of meat and a mouthful of soup. After eating all the meat, they sipped the bones. It was very satisfying to eat.

Jia Jincheng has a small appetite. He ate a duck leg, and then made a bowl of rice with soup, and he was full with only half a plate of pickles. He put down his chopsticks, and watched his son gnawing on the neck of the duck with a smile. Xiang Shi was uncharacteristically quiet today. , just lowered her head to eat the meat, without saying a word, Jia Silian gnawed on the duck's paw while looking at Xiang Shi from the corner of her eyes, quietly scrutinizing her expression, and as she ate, Jia Silian suddenly asked,

"Mother, I remember that the quilt in your room was washed last month, but it hasn't been washed this month. I'll take it apart and wash it for you today, right?"

Xiang Shi was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said with a cold face,

"I've been lazy in the past, how can I be diligent today, I don't need to wash it tonight, I'll wash it tomorrow!"

"Oh……"

Jia Silian responded, then turned to ask Jia Jincheng,

"Father, the quilts in your and Lao Qi's house are going to be washed too, will you tear them down tonight?"

Jia Jincheng nodded,
"Wash it!"

A trace of panic flashed in Xiang Shi's eyes when he heard the words, he put the bowl in his hand on the table heavily,
"What's wrong with you tonight? What's the matter with washing the quilt early and late? If you insist on it today, don't make any fuss. Let me explain...wash it!"

After finishing speaking, he gave Jia Silian a vicious look, and Jia Jincheng frowned upon seeing this, a little dissatisfied with his wife scolding his daughter for no reason, and immediately responded,
"The children are willing to wash, I don't care if yours is washed or not, ours... just wash it tonight!"

When Jia Jincheng spoke, Xiang Shi didn't want to quarrel with him, so he could only bear it, and stopped talking, but stared at Jia Silian with a pair of toad eyes, and Jia Silian knew it, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and greeted Wu Lian and Wu Lian. Liulian Road,

"Fifth Sister, Sixth Sister, let's go in and tear down the quilt!"

The two agreed, put down the empty bowls in their hands, and ran into Jia Youchuan's room together. When Jia Silian was about to enter the door, she turned her head and glanced at Xiang Shi. up.

At that moment, the three sisters went in, lifted the quilt on the bed swiftly, and searched carefully under the bed, but they couldn't find anything.
"Fourth sister... no!"

Wulian got out from under the bed, Silian frowned, thought for a while and said in a low voice,

"Remove the quilt first..."

The three sisters worked together to remove the quilt, looking around while removing the quilt. This Jia Laoqi's room is not big, and there is a bed, two cabinets, and a table in front of the window. There is nothing more, if it is really stolen by Xiang Shi, it can only be hidden under the bed or in the cabinet.

"cabinet……"

The three sisters went to open the cabinet again, and while taking out the clean quilt, they rummaged around in the cabinet, but the cabinet was so big, and the clothes came to the bottom when they were turned over.
"No……"

The sisters looked at each other in blank dismay, at this time Xiangshi put down the bowl and chopsticks, came over and leaned against the door to look at the three of them, hugged his chest and smiled coldly,
"Three bastards, fighting with my old lady..."

Xiang Shi was taking a nap at home today, when she heard the door ringing outside, she raised her head and looked out of the window, and saw Si Lian sneaking back with a big bag in her arms, she immediately came back with her ears open to listen to the movement outside, but it didn't take long , she heard a noise in the kitchen, and Xiang Shi went to the window to listen, and heard that Xixi Suosuo seemed to be moving something. After listening for a while, there were footsteps outside, and she hurriedly lay back bed.

Xiang knows that the dead girl is probably hiding something, she has sharp eyes, and can tell at a glance that the fur skin is made of good material, not to mention the things inside, even the fur skin is worth a dozen copper coins. She didn't get up until Si Lian was finished and went out, and searched the kitchen carefully, and sure enough, she found the bundle in the firewood pile, opened it, and immediately burst into joy.

Mrs. Xiang changed the place to hide the burden, planning that when Jia Silian and the others came back at night, if they asked about something, she would deny it to death, and then find an opportunity to send it to her mother's house tomorrow, but Jia Jincheng knew about it and had no evidence. It's not easy for him to make trouble for himself!
Jia Silian glanced at her, didn't say much, just called the younger sisters to take off the dirty sheets on the bed and put on clean ones. Seeing them like this, Xiang Shi obviously didn't find anything, and was going to suffer from the dumb loss, and she was proud now Hehe laughed, turned and went into his room.

As soon as Jia Silian waited for her to leave, she searched around the house again, that is, if there was nothing under the bed or in the closet, then...

She glanced around the floor of the room, and she found the trace that someone had moved the corner of the cabinet. She immediately gave Wulian a look, and the two went up to push the heavy wooden cabinet together. A hole in the corner of the inner wall is exposed, and the furoshih of the red flower on the blue background is revealed.
"Fourth sister..."

Jia Silian nodded, and suddenly raised her voice outside,
"Father, come in, I have something to tell you..."

Outside, Jia Jincheng finished his meal early and was helping his son pour the soup from the crock. Hearing this, he put down the crock and walked into the back room.
"what is this?"

Jia Silian took out the bundle and opened it, revealing the contents inside.

"Father, Mr. Mou came back from outside the city today and gave me some rabbits and mountain rats. I originally planned to eat rabbit meat tonight, but when I came back, the burden was gone, and I couldn't find it anywhere. I didn't expect to be dragged here by a big mouse..."

Jia Jincheng has been running outside for so many years, and he only needs to turn his head to understand the strangeness immediately. He smiled coldly and raised his voice,
"Silian, you have to be careful where you put things. You were dragged away by that big mouse, and let these good meat be cheap for nothing. You must not be negligent this time!"

"Yes, Dad!"

Jia Silian responded, and together with Wu Lian pushed the cabinet back to its original place. Jia Youchuan outside heard the movement and ran in to take a look. When he saw those things, his eyes lit up immediately. Mouse, little mouse, shouted,

"Silian, where did you get so much meat?"

Jia Silian replied,
"It was given by a son who often came to the noodle stall to eat noodles. He escaped the summer heat outside the city, and now he is back. I took it home this afternoon. I put it in the firewood room for the purpose of adding vegetables at night. The mouse was dragged away and hid in the hole behind the cabinet, luckily I found it..."

Jiayou was furious when he heard the news,
"What rat dares to come to our house to steal meat to eat, it can't be killed!"

Jia Jincheng snorted,
"This rat has been stealing our house for more than ten years..."

Then he told his son,

"Lao Qi, don't run around outside these days, stay at home and catch... mice!"

Jia Youchuan nodded, looked left and right and picked up a wooden stick behind the door,

"Father, don't worry, I've been staying at home for the past few days, and if I see that big mouse, I'll kill it!"

After that, he waved the stick in his hand vigorously.

Then when Mrs. Xiang entered the house, she stuck to the crack of the door and peeked. Hearing that Jia Silian and the others had found something, they stabbed her back and forth. Even his son tried to beat her with a stick, his fat face couldn't help but His upper muscles trembled, his face twisted, and he cursed fiercely,
"All of them... are not good things... the whole family bullies me with a foreign surname... Let's see how I will deal with you in the future!"

Jia Jincheng heard that the neighbors were quiet and knew that Xiang Shi was knowing this time, so he couldn't help but sneered.
"Hmph! This time, she is wise. If she dares to make trouble, I will definitely not spare her today!"

There was nothing to say that night, but on the second day, Jia Silian took her two younger sisters to set up a stall, and Jia Youchuan really did what she said, and stayed at home after eating early in the morning, staring at her own flesh, unable to Let the big mouse drag it away.

After thinking about it all night, Mrs. Xiang was still not reconciled, so she went to her son's house,
"Old Qi, I heard that Si Lian brought back meat last night?"

Jiayou said,
"Mother, there is a lot of meat, Silian said, tonight we will eat rabbit meat, and steamed rat meat..."

paused and asked,
"Mother, I haven't eaten mountain rat meat yet. Have you ever eaten it? What does it taste like?"

After saying that, as if he was greedy for questions, he took a sip of his saliva, and when Xiang Shi saw this, the corner of his mouth twitched, coaxing him,
"Lao Qi, your grandfather's family hasn't eaten meat for several months, can we... quietly send some to them?"

When Jiayou heard the news, he immediately stared, jumped up and said to Shi,
"Mom, you said I'll do everything else, but this one won't work. If anyone dares to take a bite of my meat, I'll beat him to death!"

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and took the wooden stick leaning against the bed in his hand. Seeing his son's hair blown like a cat whose tail was trampled on, Xiang Shi felt even darker in his heart.
"It's all about Jia Jincheng, and those three scumbags. Now the seventh child who teaches is not facing me..."

It's just that this is a son, no more than a daughter, she was reluctant to force her to do it, so she had no choice but to coax him,
"Lao Qi, that's your grandfather's house. Your grandfather and uncles are so kind to you. Go over there...they even give you sweets. You are a good boy...don't forget their love for you... Hello!"

Jiayou's biography is not oily and salty, and he responded,
"Mom, I'm young, don't think I'm stupid, every time you take me home you give me coins, if you don't give them coins, will they give me candies?"

"..."

Xiang Shi was so blocked by his son that he could not speak...

The mother and son at home were arguing inside, and at the entrance of the alley outside, Wu Lian was a little worried,
"Fourth sister, Lao Qi won't be coaxed by mother to take out the meat?"

Jia Silian snorted and replied,
"Don't worry, Jia Laoqi won't protect the things next to him, but if it's meat..."

To put it bluntly, it is Xiang Shi, even the Heavenly King Lao Tzu is not easy to use!

While the sisters were talking, they could see a woman rushing to the street in the distance. This Yanghua Hutong is located in the north of the city where the poor live. The surface is clean and tidy, and the stalls and hawkers are under the control of the yamen servants who patrol the city. They place things in an orderly manner and dare not exceed half a step, so people coming and going on the street do not hinder walking.

And on this street, the yamen servants patrolling the city did not do anything, and let the vendors place them randomly. In order to occupy more space, everyone moved to the middle of the street. The street that could have accommodated two carriages, Now there is only room for one carriage to pass, and when the carriage is placed wider, the stalls have to be moved when the carriage passes by, and this street is also considered to be prosperous, there are so many people passing by, this carriage is not crowded, so Although the woman said she was pushing forward desperately, she was not walking fast.

There were so many people on the street, Jia Silian noticed her because there were several strong men behind her, and they chased after her. They were tall and tall, wearing short jackets, bloomers with trousers tied on their heads, and a uniform tie around their waists. The sweat towel looks like a nursing home raised by a wealthy family, or a thug raised by a gambling house or a brothel. Such a person is like Jia Silian and the others who do small businesses, and they are the people who dare not provoke them.

The gang chased after them, and they pushed away those who were in the way, and some people couldn't stop and bumped into the people behind, which immediately caused a commotion in the crowd, the woman in front looked back and ran even faster up.

When she got closer, the woman saw Jia Silian who was looking around at the entrance of the alley, and immediately ran towards her,
"Four Lotus..."

Jia Silian was taken aback for a moment, then looked carefully, and found that it was Mrs. Liu,

"Miss Liu, you... what's wrong with you?"

Lady Liu ran up to her, reached out and grabbed Jia Silian's arm, her long nails pinched into the flesh, her face turned pale, her arms trembled violently,

"Silian, hurry up and report to the government, report to the government..."

"Report to the official...why report to the official?"

Jia Silian was taken aback, and Mrs. Liu looked back anxiously. Seeing the men chasing them, she didn't dare to stay any longer. She let Silian go and ran forward, saying,

"Reporting to the officer... the things in the ice cellar..."

The sound got farther and farther away, and the men arrived. Madam Liu lifted her skirt and ran forward. When the men passed by Jia Silian, someone stretched out her hand and pushed her hard.
"oops……"

Jia Silian's thin body was pushed back a few steps, bumped into her own stall, and fell to the ground. Seeing this, the diners at the side stretched out their hands to help her,
"Are you all right?"

　Dear, update tomorrow!
