Chapter 93

"My cousin is really popular. I met two handsome young masters when I first came to Jiang'an County."

Shu Jinxuan looked at the package that the Jiang brothers stuffed into Hua Rujin's hands, and suddenly felt a little jealous.

"Great kindness is hard to turn down, good kindness is hard to turn down."

Hua Rujin smiled embarrassingly: "It was just a few more words yesterday, helping the brothers resolve some old grievances, they have to come to thank them."

Thinking of him running all the way to Jiang'an County to deliver clothes to her, but being thrown outside by Ye Chengwei's dog thief, she felt a little bit sorry.

Seeing that the sun was almost noon, he said to him: "I was in a hurry yesterday, but today I have some free time. Let me treat my cousin to dinner. What do you want to eat?"

"Okay."

Shu Jinxuan replied with a smile.

Being able to see her every day is already satisfying, what to eat doesn't seem to matter.

"I know that there is a snack shop by the riverside. It is a century-old brand. It was created in the previous dynasty. Most of the snacks in it are Jiangnan flavor. I guarantee that my cousin rarely saw it in the past."

"Okay, let's go now."

Hearing what he said with great interest made Hua Rujin suddenly interested.

So they got into the carriage, and the two hurried straight to the edge of the Chu River.

The coachman hurried on, and when he arrived at the edge of the Chu River, there were many shops everywhere, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians. The bustling atmosphere was not much worse than that of Jiangling City.

Shu Jinxuan led her to the snack shop quickly, and sat down at an empty table in the corner.

As soon as she sat down, Hua Rujin smelled a strong fragrance.

Seeing the crowds of diners all around, it seems that this shop is indeed living up to its reputation, she was a little impatient and said to her cousin Ruya: "Cousin, you can choose what you like, I will only be responsible for eating today." .”

Before Shu Jinxuan could answer, he saw a shirtless middle-aged man coming out of the back room, and immediately greeted them with smiles from ear to ear:

"Ah, it's Second Master Shu. I haven't seen you come to Jiang'an County for many years. I heard from my aunt that you went to the capital in the past few years. I thought I would never see you again in this lifetime."

Shu Jinxuan was not in a hurry to answer his words, but looked at Hua Rujin with a gentle face, and introduced in detail: "This is the cousin of the sixth room of my dead mother's house. A few days ago, I came to Jiang'an County to assist the county with the prefect. Li investigated the case."

"Tsk, it should be Miss Hua."

The middle-aged man's face was even more joyful: "Miss Hua is well known to everyone in our county now. On Xiaoyun Mountain, the mother and son of the Cheng family were rehabilitated, and the teahouse's ingenious decision yesterday is even more admirable. It's all spread now."

"Overrated."

Hua Rujin felt a little embarrassed when he heard that he had conveyed herself so miraculously, and quickly changed the subject: "The store can prepare some of the store's special dishes for us."

"Miss Hua, don't worry, today's safekeeping will satisfy both of you."

As the shopkeeper said, he turned and went to the kitchen to let the guys prepare meals.

After waiting for the shopkeeper to leave, Shu Jinxuan carefully separated with her and said: "My aunt Hu's family is in the business of a medical clinic, and every year I go to Shu's house to buy medicinal materials. The mung bean powder that my cousin ate at our house a few years ago is produced. From their house, I remember that you love food the most."

"I see."

Hua Rujin has no memory of this in her mind, so she can only prevaricate casually: "That is really a rare delicacy."

"Today, I will ask him to prepare more, and then he can take it back to Jiangling City, just in time for Mu Yang and You En to try it too."

"Okay, listen to you."

The two chatted for a while, and the waiter in the shop brought up delicate dishes one after another.

"Steamed cured meat."

Cousin Ruya started to explain while picking up vegetables for her: "This is made by mixing marinated bacon, cured fish, and preserved chicken, and adding fresh chicken broth and various seasonings to steam it. It tastes very delicious. When the great grandfather entered Beijing, he still had nostalgia for this special delicacy, so he specially ordered the royal chef in the palace to come here to learn from it, and my cousin should try it soon."

Hua Rujin took a piece of fish meat and fed it into her mouth, chewed it slowly, the taste was really memorable.

Before she recovered from the smell of the last dish, Shu Jinxuan put a new dish into the bowl again: "This dish is called Longzhi Pig Blood. It is creamy, delicate and tender, and has a unique flavor." .”

After that, there are chopped pepper fish head, three-layer chicken and Zu'an shark's fin. Every dish is irresistible.

Seeing that he was only focused on picking up vegetables for himself, Hua Rujin quickly ordered: "Cousin also eat more, please take the trouble to come all the way to Jiang'an County."

"That's a big deal."

Thinking of the two outfits he had carefully selected for her, Shu Jinxuan paused on her for a moment, remembering that her cousin was not dressed like this when she came.

Dressed in pink and white, the whole person looks very different from the previous style, less dignified, playful and lively, more like those princesses in the palace.

"My cousin has changed a lot when she came to Jiang'an County. I'm afraid the two clothes I chose for you are not suitable."

The bitterness on Shu Jinxuan's face was full: "How about I accompany you to choose two new ones later?"

"Need not."

Hua Rujin didn't have time to unpack the burden last night. As for the clothes she was wearing, she couldn't say that they were prepared by Zhuang Yuanlang, so she could only casually say: "Every day is complicated, and there is no need to be so particular about it."

"You don't have to work yourself so hard."

Shu Jinxuan knew that she now had a grudge against herself, so she could only keep her previous words in her heart, and then said: "Uncle can go to the county school when he returns to Jiangling City, at least seven or eighty taels of silver a year, if you are taken away again The snail noodle shop mentioned earlier is open enough to feed a family, so why bother to wander around with Mr. Ye all day long."

Mentioning the word "Ye Gongzi" deliberately aggravated the tone.

"I think it's fine now."

These two people have been unusually weird lately, Hua Rujin seemed a little puzzled, so she had to deal with it cautiously.

Shu Jinxuan couldn't persuade her, so she went to pick up vegetables in a muffled voice.

When the two of them were enjoying their meal, they suddenly saw a group of servants dressed as public servants walk in. After taking a seat at the door and ordering some food and drinks, they began to complain dissatisfiedly:
"The censor Caojiang left after a few words of advice, Tuzhi County died suddenly, and the local security guards everywhere continued to exert pressure. This mess of being reviled by others will eventually fall on our inspection department."

"Let's just take people, since the sky is falling and Lord Censor will support us, no wonder the inspector is here."

"That's hundreds of lives, and I heard that the magistrate and Xinke champion are in the county now, and Ye Zhixian is temporarily in charge of Jiang'an county affairs. This person is not a stubborn person who believes in witchcraft and respects ghosts and gods. He If you blame it, I'm afraid it will not end well."

"It's just a magistrate, even the magistrate can't control the affairs of our inspection department, so what is he?"

A few people discussed a few words with you and I, and left in a hurry after finishing their meal.

Hua Rujin and Shu Jinxuan were listening in the corner, with the same confusion on their faces:

Could it be that something weird happened in Jiang'an County?
