Shu Blossoms

Chapter 103 The Poor Duck

Seeing Zheng Wei's pale little face, Liao Wennan was startled and almost cried out, but Zheng Wei's eyes glared, Liao Wennan immediately swallowed back his words, and said with a disguised smile: "Sister-in-law, this is Is your lord, it looks like he is sick and suffering."

The maid heard him mentioning Zheng Wei, she hurriedly regained her senses, hugged Zheng Wei in her arms to shield her, and explained unnaturally: "Yes, it is my husband, she has an infectious disease, this gentleman should not come close."

After finishing speaking, the servant woman didn't dare to commit any more nympho, she carried Zheng Wei and hurried away.

Liao Wennan shouted angrily behind them: "Since you are suffering from such a severe disease, how can you walk around without covering your face? It's really disgusting!"

When the servant girl and Zheng Wei were no longer in sight, her expression darkened immediately, and she turned back to her room.

"close the door!"

After Liao Wennan ordered, Sanping quickly closed the door, and asked puzzledly, "Master, what happened?"

She didn't answer Sanping's question, but stood in front of the window, frowning and thinking.

"Sanping, go to the store and ask, who brought the sick family member just now? By the way, let's find out who is in that family?"

Sanping took the order to leave, while Liao Wennan sat in the room and meditated, tapping a few tables unconsciously with his green fingers.

At this moment, Zheng Wei was lying on the couch with a big smile on her face, as expected, there was nothing wrong with it!

Doesn't this give her a glimmer of life.

Let's see how she can catch it.

Judging from the haste of these people, I am afraid that they only have one night to plan.

She pondered for a long time, only to feel that her whole body was sore and uncomfortable, and she turned over with great effort, when suddenly she heard a duck squawking from outside the door.

I'm hungry!
On weekdays, she is fond of meat, and she really wants to eat the salted duck made by the chef in the house.

After running around for several days, except for a decent meal when going to the city for supplies, I can only eat cold dry food at other times, and my stomach is cold and painful.

Thinking in this way, the door of the house was opened, and the servant woman came in with food.

Zheng Wei tilted his head and looked, a bowl of rice and corn, a bowl of vegetable porridge, a plate of preserved meat, and a plate of vegetables, although simple, it is better to have both meat and vegetables than what many well-to-do people eat.

Even in the Zheng Mansion, the food on weekdays is similar to this, but when there are many people, a few dishes will be added.

Speaking of it, she shouldn't be picky, but the little girl's family has suffered so many grievances for nothing, so I don't want her to be willful for a while.

"I want to eat salted duck!"

The maid was taken aback when she heard the words, as if she didn't understand Zheng Wei's meaning.

"I want to eat salted duck!"

Zheng Wei said it again.

Only then did the servant realize that she was a little puzzled to understand that this girl had fallen into such a situation, how dare she be so bold?

"If there is no salted duck, I will go on a hunger strike!"

The servant woman didn't dare to make a decision herself, so she went straight to report to the man in black.

Hearing Zheng Wei's request, the man in black was puzzled, and lowered his head to ask the maidservant next to him: "This princess has never asked for anything during this journey, so why does she insist on eating an eight-treasure duck today!"

The servant girl didn't know, she thought for a while and said, "Maybe the little girl is acting up her temper, after all, she used to be a squeamish girl, so it's hard to avoid feeling aggrieved."

The man in black suddenly heard the sound of ducks croaking outside the courtyard, got up and went to the window, and saw two fat ducks swinging in the yard, completely unaware that a wayward girl was thinking about them.

"Does she have other abnormalities?"

The man in black asked the servant woman again.

The maid thought for a while and then said: "After arriving at the inn today, the maid personally took the girl out once, and nothing else happened."

The man in black shrank his eyes, thought for a while but didn't feel anything, and only said: "Then tell the chef to make her a salted duck, and think about it later."

Unfinished words The man in black didn't say anything clearly, he just waved his hand and let the maid go down to make arrangements.

Inside Liao Wennan's house, San Ping came back after inquiring, and reported: "It is said that a caravan from Jiankang is selling silk and cotton cloth to the north. The man who is sick is the owner of the caravan. He wants to go to the north to seek help from Dr. Yu Luo."

"The caravan from Jiankang, now that Jiankang is about to be captured by soldiers, how can there be a caravan traveling?".
Liao Wennan seemed puzzled.

Sanping didn't understand these things, but said again: "I think that although this gentleman is seriously ill, he has a good appetite, so he wants to eat salted duck!"

Liao Wennan smiled when she heard the words, she has always refused to treat herself badly under any circumstances.

Although she didn't know what happened to this unlucky girl, and she didn't know how to help her, but there was one thing she could do, and that was to buy time.

Now half of the country in Dazhou is in war, and there is a lot of turmoil in every city. Now that some unknown people have broken into the city, the county guard must be under martial law to search the whole process.

Thinking like this, Liao Wennan took out a pen and paper and wrote a few words, and ordered Sanping to quietly send it to the gatehouse of the county guard's mansion.

After Sanping left, Liao Wennan also got up and left the house, intending to see what happened to Zheng Wei's salted duck.

I think back then there was a man who liked to eat salted duck. In order to please him, she deliberately learned it for several months before he was full of praise.

Emperor Zhou didn't like to waste, so he could only eat duck meat that was spoiled. In those few months, she and her servants in the palace ate duck meat for a long time, and then they didn't like duck anymore!
Liao Wennan suddenly thought of something, and suddenly smiled, he was indeed a nephew, and he also liked food.

When Liao Wennan arrived at the back kitchen of the hostel, all the people in the back kitchen were worried about a duck that had been stripped of its feathers.

"Dare to ask..." Liao Wennan's voice caught everyone's attention, "Did you have salted duck today?"

The cook woman apologized after hearing the words: "I will not lie to you, the woman is from the north, and she is not good at the way of cooking in the south."

Hearing this, Liao Wennan thought to himself that it would be difficult for a little girl who stutters to eat.

Suddenly Liao Wennan thought of a way, and told the cook, "My mother loved to eat salted duck, and she learned a thing or two in school. If my sister-in-law is trustworthy, let me try it?"

The cook was overjoyed and thanked her quickly.

Liao Wennan instructed again, "Then just ask sister-in-law to wash the duck, and I'll go back and get some accessories."

The cook nodded repeatedly, and Liao Wennan went back to prepare.

When the salted duck was ready, she told the cook not to cut the eight-treasure duck into pieces, but to send it whole while it was hot.

The cook woman put the duck into the food box, and trotted all the way to Zheng Wei's room.

Liao Wennan looked a little apprehensive in his heart, and didn't know whether Zheng Wei's current situation could detect the abnormality astutely, if he was found out, he might be in bad luck.

Thinking about it like this, I felt that I was being reckless, and I should wait for the city to be under martial law, and wait for the opportunity when the officers and soldiers came to search.

But the arrow has been shot, and I can't take it back, so I can only pray for God's blessing!
On the other side, the cook handed the salted duck food box to the servant outside the door, and the servant brought it in herself.

Zheng Weiqiang, who smelled the familiar fragrance, sat up propped up, looked at the whole salted duck on the table, smelled the familiar fragrance, and suddenly felt his stomach start to growl.

Seeing that Zheng Wei was in a hurry, the maid wanted to tear up the duck and feed it to her, Zheng Wei waved her hands and hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I have some strength, I want to eat by myself, if I wear clothes like this, I stretch out my hands to eat and open my mouth." It's like a waste person."
