Dali Temple Small Dining Room 2

Chapter 442 Scissors Noodles ([-])
The conversation with Lin Fei ended like a riddle, and not long after Lin Fei left, A Bing and Tang Yuan came to look for Wen Mingtang.

"Master Wen, what does Mu Shi eat?"

Sitting in front of the window, Wen Mingtang turned out the square inkstone in his bag to add water and grind ink, and said, "Didn't the house office send pork meat? For meat dishes, make braised pork meat in soy sauce, and for vegetarians, use tender chives and eggs to fry it." Let's have some soup."

Although the ingredients sent by the internal affairs yamen are not so harsh that they will starve to death, they are definitely not too much. One meat, one vegetable and one soup have become the standard provisions of all yamen.In this way, no matter which yamen's public kitchen you go to, the three meals are almost the same.

In this way... the culinary skills of the chefs of the public are more clear at a glance.

There are just two or three ingredients, and too many can't make flowers.Tang Yuan and A Bing nodded, and were forced by the internal affairs office to reduce the dishes. The public chef felt a lot easier. There are three dishes in total. It is easy to cook, especially since I practiced with Wen Mingtang for a year last year This is especially true for the culinary A Bingtong glutinous rice balls.

So when they heard that Mu Shi was these three dishes, the two immediately said that Mu Shi asked him to make them. It happened that these dishes were not yet skilled in cooking, the oil was too much and the oil was too little, so how to arrange the sugar, salt, soy sauce and vinegar If you really want to go out and open a restaurant, you need to work slowly and diligently, then the weight of these ingredients is all in the hands of the two of you, and you need to master it well.

It just so happened that Master Wen's arm could be raised again.

Wen Mingtang rubbed the plastered arm, and did not refuse the two of them's kindness.

After the two left, they picked up a pen and started writing.

Even though the dishes of Mu Shi are simple, they taste good. It can be seen that they are from the handicrafts of A Bing and the glutinous rice balls taught by Master Wen.

After looking around for a while, I didn't see the shadow of the third person behind the countertop of the public kitchen. Someone couldn't help asking A Bing with the glutinous rice balls: "Where is Master Wen?"

Tangyuan smiled and said, "Master Wen hurt his hand while making scissor noodles this morning."

The little official who asked the question twitched his lips and said: "Master Wen can be lazy on the first day of the new year. It's not like I was busy flipping through the files. It's best not to come to other cases at this time, so that I can calm down and take a breath..."

Before he finished speaking, a familiar voice came from outside.

"I'm afraid I can't!"

Following these words, Bai Zhu walked in, holding an open complaint in his hand, and said, "A new case has arrived!"

Here it comes again... Originally waiting in line to get the evening meal, the servants and the petty officials all changed their expressions at the same time. Some people turned pale and their lips trembled, trying to say something, but they didn't say it.

At this time... I really have no skills at all!

Compared with the ugly faces of the guards and officials, Bai Zhu's expression was calm. He looked at the crowd, paused for a moment, and said, "The one who submitted the complaint...is Master Wen."

When these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

After a moment of silence in the public kitchen, inquiries came one after another.

"Master Wen? What happened to Master Wen?" Someone asked immediately after hearing the words.

Some were more thoughtful, thought for a while, and said, "Is it a family matter or a personal matter?"

As soon as these words came out, many people looked at Bai Zhu.Master Wen's life experience is not a secret, nor is the matter of the Wen family.If it's about Wen's family, it's an old thing. If it's about me, it's a trouble that happened only in the past two days.

Bai Zhu's answer was somewhat unexpected.

Bai Zhu looked at the crowd looking towards him, and said, "It's not only a family matter, but also my own."

This made people a little confused.

Seeing everyone's puzzled eyes, Bai Zhu smiled and said: "Master Wen sued his cousin, isn't it both a family matter and his own business?"

Everyone was stunned, "Oh", and someone quickly responded: "Master Wen's cousin... I remember that it seems to be the top card of the Jiaofang that King Yu once bought! Later, I heard that there was no news."

"There is news now." Bai Zhu said with a smile, "So Master Wen sued his cousin, sued her...Zeng and King Yu wanted to kill her in the street."

Although the woman named Wen Xiutang was Master Wen's cousin, her temperament was completely different from Master Wen's, and she could tell they were two kinds of people at a glance.Although King Yu's case was closed, it was a fact that Lin Shaoqing, Liu Sicheng and Bai Sicheng were also hunted down by the dead man who was chasing and killing Master Wen in the street at that time.In full view, the whole street witnessed this scene.

But at that time, because the dead man died, although he suspected that the man was instigated by King Yu, but there was no proof of his death, Master Wen did not sue.

Later, after something happened in King Yu's case, this Wen Xiutang disappeared, and Master Wen didn't sue except for asking them to find her in private.

But I didn't expect that today Master Wen came to file a complaint quietly.

Someone came to his senses: "Have you found Master Wen's cousin?"

Bai Zhu nodded, and said: "I found it, now Liu Yuan took Zhao You and the others to arrest him."

Who would have thought that Wen Xiutang, whose whereabouts were missing after King Yu's accident, would come back?

……

Wen Mingtang did not expect that Wen Xiutang would come back so soon, since Wen Xiutang had left Beijing for less than a year.

Rubbing his nose, Wen Mingtang became suspicious when he remembered the fragrance he smelt when he passed by Ye Huai yesterday and the sachet Ye Huai was wearing around his waist.

At that time, the only clue left when Wen Xiutang disappeared was that the steward who took Wen Xiutang away spoke with a Jiangnan local accent, and Ye Huai and the others came from Jiangnan, which is quite consistent.

Although some things sound like jokes, there may not be no clues in the jokes.

Ye Huai had been to Chang'an earlier, and Lin Fei had to be deceived by Ye Huai's good looks in order to beat her up. He had said more than once that Ye Huai was talented, and as a young talent, he was sought after by many women.

Some of these women are ladies of the family, but more... are prostitutes.

It's not surprising that talented scholars' poems and famous prostitutes' singing and singing have always been one of the fastest ways for prostitutes to show their talents.

Wen Xiutang was in the Jiaofang at that time, so it was not surprising to hear Ye Huai's name.Judging from Wen Xiutang's habit of competing with her since childhood, Ye Huai was also the ex-fiancé of the original owner. Wen Xiutang was still a member of King Yu at that time, but he might not think of a way to meet Ye Huai, so it would be a shock. Respond to the original owner.With Ye Huai's temperament... Uh, why would a beauty like Wen Xiutang not go when invited?

Furthermore... Thinking of what happened to the "Original Owner" in the dream, one can imagine how Ye Huai would arrange Wen Xiutang.

Wen Mingtang feels that this Wen Xiutang is probably the second "original owner", but this time, something happened to Princess Liyang and Ye Zhouxu had other plans, so Wen Xiutang didn't really die in the name of "fake death", but followed left the capital.

So... It's just right, she was still looking for Wen Xiutang, and she came to her door herself!
