Nongmen fierce girl head chef

Chapter 673 Tang Qing, find someone

After getting some clues from An Jie, Lin Yuan and the two asked shopkeeper Wu to go to the two friends he mentioned to verify, and the results were the same.What An Jie ate was his favorite chicken and some vegetarian dishes, and they also ate these things, and they didn't feel any discomfort.

"In this way, we can be sure that An Jie was not poisoned in our Xiangmanlou at all!" Shopkeeper Wu thumped his palm, anxious and angry.

Lin Yuan nodded: "That's before Laixiangmanlou."

Shopkeeper Wu said again: "I'm also puzzled. Those two people said that they went to An's house to meet An Jie, and then went to Xiangmanlou together, and even took the same carriage. So, how could An Jie Didn’t he just get poisoned in An’s house? Alas, Xiangmanlou has been blamed this time!”

It is indeed a big scapegoat, and this scapegoat was imposed on him by others!
Lin Yuan was also full of anger, because of An Jie's poisoning, how much Xiangmanlou's reputation and business had been hit, she didn't need to check it out.Although no one came to throw rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs in front of the door now, but compared with the bustling Zuixianju opposite, their place is deserted like a haunted house, which is really annoying!
"The most urgent thing is to find out why An Jie was poisoned."

Seeing Xia Zheng remained silent, Lin Yuan patted the back of his hand: "What are you thinking?"

Xia Zheng came back to his senses, shrugged his shoulders: "It's okay, I was thinking, this Tang guy should be here soon."

Surnamed Tang?
Lin Yuan curled her lips, that magistrate Tang Qing!That's right, Wang Hong released shopkeeper Wu without his consent. It is impossible for Tang Qing not to ask.Besides, she and Xia Zheng went in and out of Xiangmanlou to make such a big fuss, it's impossible for the people over there not to know.

"I'm waiting for him to come! As a local parental official, if something like poisoning happens, don't talk about finding the murderer quickly, but just suppress it blindly! I think he should stop calling him Tang Qing and change his name to Tang Hei!" Lin Yuan She patted the table angrily, her little hands were red but still couldn't dispel her anger.

Xia Zheng curled his lips into a smile, but his brows did not relax. He always felt that this matter would not be solved so easily.

Just talking about Tang Qing, I didn't expect that Tang Qing didn't come, and Jin Can came to the door first.

As soon as he entered the door, Jin Can ran over in a hurry, mouthing non-stop: "Oh, I just went to the Yamen to beat the drums to protest my grievances and wanted to testify against shopkeeper Wu, but as soon as the yamen servants came out, they said that shopkeeper Wu had returned. I I'm so glad that the truth of the matter came to light, so I hurried over here. But, why is this restaurant still so depressed, where's the chef, where's the guy? Are you not opening for business?"

Xu Shi was too excited, Jin Can spit out saliva while talking.

Lin Yuan chuckled, and stepped back without a trace.

Xia Zheng was not so tactful, he directly frowned, and covered his face with the lid of the teapot.

Shopkeeper Wu was funny and annoyed, so he quickly grabbed Jin Can who was talking non-stop, cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Thank you Brother Jin for helping me speak, the county magistrate actually has no evidence to prove that Mr. An's poisoning was our Xiangmanlou's fault, It's not like my boss let me out as soon as he came."

Jin Can said oh twice, nodded again and again, staring at Lin Yuan with shrewd eyes, grunting twice, almost drooling.

Lin Yuan didn't think his appearance was due to her good looks, so she smiled and said, "Mr. Jin, I'm really sorry, my restaurant won't be able to open recently. But don't worry, our Xiangmanlou will definitely not be closed, wait for us On the day of reopening, we will definitely invite you to taste our new dishes."

Hearing that there was a new dish, Jin Can's eyes became brighter, and he nodded excitedly, almost hugging Lin Yuan and shedding passionate tears.

After finally sending Jin Can away, Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, didn't she just make fish balls for him?As for looking at her like that?As if she was the fish ball.

"Hehe, hehe."

Xia Zheng suddenly heheed twice in a strange tone, and looked at her sideways, the expression on his face was so wonderful that he was about to start a dyeing workshop.

Lin Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help snickering, this guy was jealous again, didn't he just get two extra glances from Jin Can?That Jin Can is about to become her father, can she still have feelings for him?
"Good job!" Glancing at Xia Zheng, Lin Yuan said sternly, "Now it is basically certain that An Jie was poisoned in An's house."

"Really? I don't think so, but I think that Jin Can is very suspicious." Xia Zheng's vinegar jar is still upside down, "This Jin Can is famous for his gluttony in Yecheng, maybe, he just looks at that Mr. An Only when he robbed his chicken to eat, would he feel resentful and secretly poison him."

The more he talked, the more Xia Zheng felt that his words were very reliable, and he said happily: "Well, it must be so, think about it, didn't that Jin Can also eat at the same table with An Jie? How convenient is it for him to poison, right?"

"For your size!" Lin Yuan rolled his eyes at him, and snorted, "Don't worry, it's absolutely impossible for Jin Can to poison you. One, he has no motive for committing the crime. It's totally impossible for you to grab food. Just be safe." For an easy-going son like Jie, would you not let him be full?"

Stretching out another finger, Lin Yuan continued: "Secondly, Jin Can has no intention of poisoning at all, let alone poisoning food. Don't forget, Jin Can is nicknamed Golden Tongue, and food is important to him. Not only is it something to eat, but also something to appreciate. Who would be willing to poison something they like? Huh? You? Would you be willing to poison me?"

"No, absolutely not willing." Xia Zheng shook his head repeatedly.

Lin Yuan curled her lips triumphantly: "So, Jin Can is absolutely innocent!"

"Then what is he doing here today? I don't believe he is really trying to intercede with shopkeeper Wu." Seeing Xia Zheng's dislike of Jin Can, Lin Yuan pursed her lips in amusement: "He, Naturally, I came here to show my goodwill. An Jie was imprisoned because of poisoning. Shopkeeper Wu was imprisoned. He and An Jie came together again. Of course, he was afraid that we would misunderstand him. That’s why he hurried to the Yamen to testify for us and return Shopkeeper Wu. A clean one."

"You don't need him to testify, and I can return his innocence!" Xia Zheng wrinkled his nose, "Aren't you thinking about the meatball you made for him? Think you don't know? Hmph! Did you use my woman as a cook? If you don't look at his weight, is the woman cooking for him?"

Lin Yuan was taken aback for a moment, the guy who dared to love was very clear in his heart, knowing Jin Can's intention to come here, he still had trouble with her!Damn guy!
While talking, shopkeeper Wu, who was going to deliver Jin Can, suddenly ran back in a hurry, with a look of panic on his face: "Master, um, that prefect of Tang is here! He must be here to arrest me! Master, you two hurry up and take shelter in the house." Avoid, don't let him take you two away!"

Neither Lin Yuan nor Lin Yuan asked the boy to tell shopkeeper Wu about Wang Hong's meeting with Xia Zheng.Therefore, in his opinion, the reason why he was able to come out was entirely because Xia Zheng gave Wang Hong the silver. Now that Tang Qing is here, he naturally thought that the matter had been brought to light to arrest him.

Lin Yuan glared at Xia Zheng, "Look at you, I told you not to hide the truth from shopkeeper Wu, now it's all right, it scares people!"

Xia Zheng chuckled, and patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, signaling that he was fine.

Shopkeeper Wu was persuaded into the back hall nervously. Although he was very worried that he would bring trouble to his bosses, he still trusted the abilities of these two bosses.

"Oh, this is really flooding the Dragon King Temple, the family doesn't recognize the family anymore!"

Lin Yuan took a look at Xia Zheng. Although he hadn't seen anyone yet, he already admired Tang Qing's tact and sophistication.

Xia Zheng shrugged and agreed.

Compared with Li Chang's frivolity and Wang Hong's cowardice, this Tang Qing looks more like an official.He has a big square face, fat waist and round arms, and he shakes it when he walks. Especially his face, the corners of his lips and the tip of his eyebrows are slightly raised, giving people a feeling of smiling even when he is not speaking.

"Smiling tiger!" Lin Yuan muttered in a low voice, which attracted Xia Zheng's admiring smile. This Tang Qing was a Beijing official back then, and his reputation in the capital was that of a smiling tiger.

In a short time, Tang Qing walked up to Xia Zheng in three or two steps, bowed his hands and saluted, and said with a smile: "The next official Tang Qing pays homage to the second son. It's been a long time since I haven't seen him. The second son has become more and more handsome."

Lin Yuan lowered her eyes, this Tang Qing was really smooth!

Xia Zheng curled his lips into a smile: "Prefect Tang is getting more and more handsome! Oh no, I should only say handsome, handsome, definitely not as good as my master!"

Tang Qing obviously knew Xia Zheng's temper very well, and immediately laughed heartily after being teased by him like this, without any embarrassment and guilt as Lin Yuan imagined.

This may be Tang Qing's strength!

"This girl must be..." Tang Qing half-spoken, looked at Xia Zheng with his eyes, and the smile in his eyes was self-evident. It seems that Xia Zheng has a beautiful woman by his side. up.

Unexpectedly, Xia Zheng, who was eager to declare his sovereignty over Lin Yuan to the world, did not answer Tang Qing's words for the first time.

"I want to catch up with Tang Zhifu. If you feel bored, you might as well go for a walk."

Lin Yuan squinted her eyes, but still nodded with a smile, stood up and was ready to go out: "It just so happens that Aunt Chen and the others are also in Yecheng, so I promised my mother to visit them."

I thought Xia Zheng would get jealous when he heard the words Aunt Chen, but he just nodded lightly: "Let Lin Yi accompany you."

This further deepened Lin Yuan's doubts, and she frowned slightly.

Seeing Tang Qing's eyes linger on Lin Yuan for a moment, Xia Zheng's eyes darkened, and he almost couldn't control his emotions.

"Prefect Tang, why are you here today?"

Xia Zheng's suddenly cold tone made Tang Qing startled, and his eyes were withdrawn from Lin Yuan's body, and he said with a smile: "Oh, didn't the officer come to apologize to the second son in person?"

"Apologize?" Xia Zheng raised his eyebrows, with a look of incomprehension: "The prefect of Tang actually still does something wrong?"

Tang Qing laughed and said: "This, hey, it's not because of Mr. An's poisoning. It's all because the officials are confused, listened to slander, and believed in the words of those villains, which caused Xiangmanlou's reputation to be damaged. Second son, my servant After the official went back, he thought about it, thought about it, and felt that there must be something wrong with this matter, so he hurriedly apologized to you, Second Young Master. I also hope that there are a lot of Second Young Masters, and let the next official go. horse."

With that said, Tang Qing made a bow with both hands, and really saluted Xia Zheng.

Xia Zheng wrinkled his nose, and didn't like his tricks at all: "Don't! Prefect Tang, as far as I know, the shopkeeper Wu was arrested by Wang Hong, and Wang Hong ordered people to seal the Xiangmanlou. .Here, what's the matter with you, Tang Qing? Even if you really apologize, it should be that Wang Hong who came to apologize! Oh, I forgot, I have already taught Wang Hong a lesson. "

Tang Qing's face was slightly embarrassed, Wang Hong was asked to come forward for everything before, just to make him a scapegoat after the incident happened.Unexpectedly, as soon as he mentioned it, Xia Zheng said it himself, which really made him a little hard to resist.

Seeing that he stopped talking, Xia Zheng's lips curled slightly, and he said coldly: "Tang Qing, don't think that I don't know what you did behind the scenes. Let me tell you, you used Wang Hong as a gunman and touched My bad luck, I will pay back this debt sooner or later!"

Tang Qing was not frightened too much, not to mention that he has a backer behind him!

"Second Young Master, you are wronged. The next official was really deceived by Wang Hong. If Second Young Master doesn't believe it, then..."

"Of course I don't believe it!" Xia Zheng interrupted him coldly. I've seen shameless people before, but I've never seen such shameless people. He obviously did it, but he dare not admit it. This kind of person is the worst!
"Tang Qing, after leaving the capital, do you feel that the Lord can't cure you?" Xia Zheng deliberately moved closer to him, his voice became low and bewitching, but the feeling was not warm at all, full of It's cold.

"Tang Qing, do you know why I want to open Xiangmanlou in your Yecheng? Master, I miss you, and I can't bear you! Of course, the person behind you is the most reluctant. Go back and tell him, and I will give him I have prepared my favorite honey bean shortbread. If one day I get too greedy, I will come to my grandfather. I will definitely treat him well. Yes, don’t forget to tell him that the ingredients in the honey bean shortbread are delicious. That's enough!"

Xia Zheng raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly, as if he was talking about the most common and delicious honey bean shortbread.But Tang Qing had a sudden feeling in his heart for no reason. He knew that this honey bean shortbread was definitely not as simple as he imagined.

But after Lin Yuan came out of Xiangmanlou, Lin Yi really asked Lin Yi to send her to Wang Hong's mansion.When Chen Zhuzi and Wang Qiaoxin left, they took the old couple of the Chen family away with them. Although she couldn't find where the old couple lived, if she came to Wang Hong's place to inquire, she should have some clues.

When she met Wang Hong before, she was so absorbed in thinking about shopkeeper Wu and Xiangmanlou that she forgot about inquiring about Aunt Chen's and his wife's residence.

Compared with Li Chang, although Wang Hong is the magistrate of the same city, his mansion is much simpler.If it weren't for the words "County Magistrate's Office" clearly written on the plaque, Lin Yuan would have suspected that Lin Yi had found the wrong place!
"My little brother, I'm a friend of your uncle, can I ask you, is he in the mansion?" Lin Yuan stepped forward and asked the boy guarding the door.

Seeing Lin Yuan smiling sweetly, polite and polite, the guard at the door also gave her a good look: "You are my uncle's friend? I advise you to leave as soon as possible!"

Lin Yuan wondered, "Why?"

The little servant looked around carefully, and said to her in a low voice: "My lady, I hate it when people come to see you, especially women, especially a beautiful woman like you. If my lady saw , you will definitely suffer a bit.”

Lin Yuan suddenly realized that it was because of Wang Qiaoxin.It seems that this Wang Qiaoxin takes Chen Zhuzi very closely. Is it because he is afraid that he will escape?Or are you afraid that he will be abducted by another woman?
"Ah, that's it." Lin Yuan held back her laughter, and said seriously, "I think Sister Wang is pretty and has a good temper, but I didn't expect that she would..."

Didn't expect to be a jealous woman.Although he didn't say it clearly, the servant understood and nodded sympathetically.

Lin Yuan snickered in her heart, and said again: "My little brother, thank you for reminding me. However, I'm not actually your uncle's friend. The main reason is that my mother has some friendship with your uncle's parents, so I When I came to Yecheng, my mother specially asked me to visit Aunt Chen. If you know where the old couple of the Chen family live, then I don’t need to see your uncle.”

As for the Chen Zhuzi who changed his name to Chen Shimei, Lin Yuan didn't want to see him at all. If Liu Shi didn't miss Aunt Chen, she also sympathized with this poor woman very much, so she wouldn't come to Wang Hong's house to find Chen Zhuzi!

But, things backfired!
The boy's eyes widened and he scratched his hair: "Girl, did you find the wrong person? My uncle has no parents, he is an orphan."

orphan?

This time it was Lin Yuan's turn to be dumbfounded, did she really make a mistake?
"Isn't your place the residence of Lord Wang Hong, the county magistrate?"

The boy nodded: "Yes, it's Lord Wang's mansion."

"How many daughters does Lord Wang have?"

"One, named Qiaoyun." The servant seriously stretched out a finger, and even said the master's name.

Wang Qiaoyun, yes!

"What about your uncle? But the surname is Chen, Chen Shimei?" Lin Yuan asked.

The servant was even more confused: "It's my uncle! Miss, you, are you sure you are looking for my uncle? But, Mrs. and Mrs., they all say that my uncle is an orphan, and that both of his parents died when he was young, and he was eating the white meat from the village. I grew up with family food. Even my uncle himself said so!"

"Your uncle said the same thing!" Lin Yuan squinted her eyes, what else did she not understand?This Chen Zhuzi really became Chen Shimei, and he didn't even recognize his parents!But since he didn't want to admit it, why did he spend his energy to bring the old couple to Yecheng?

"Then does your uncle have any other relatives? Didn't he bring the two old people to Yecheng?"

The boy thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Oh yes! When the young lady and uncle got married, there were two old men who were blind. However, they are not the parents of the uncle, they are said to be fellow villagers from the same village. When my uncle was in the village, he saw that one of them was blind and the other was weak, so he often went to help the old couple with work. This is not my uncle's marriage. The old couple thanked my uncle for his kindness and came all the way to congratulate them. After getting married, the old couple left. They haven't been here for so long. It is said that they returned to the countryside. My uncle and miss also gave them a lot of money! My uncle, you are really a warm-hearted person. Good man!"

"Good guy?"

Lin Yuan sneered, this Chen Shimei is really a good person, his parents don't recognize him, and he said in a high-sounding way that he helps others, he is really a good person!
What kind of work did Chen Shimei do when he was in Linjiaao?When was it that Aunt Chen hadn't prepared a meal and brought it to him to serve him?Even if old man Chen was not a thing, he still loved him from the bottom of his heart since he was a child, and he was not allowed to do any work except reading.Fortunately, he climbed a high branch and forgot about his parents.Poor Aunt Chen, when she left Linjiaao, she was still looking forward to it with joy.

"Oh, thank you little brother, I think I found the wrong person."

Seeing that this young man didn't know anything, Lin Yuan didn't intend to ask any more questions. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, the gate of the palace opened with a stubborn sound, and a petite figure came out.

When the servant saw her, he smiled and hurriedly greeted her: "Hey, where is Miss Luliu going? Look at you with big bags, don't you go to the south of the city to give alms to the poor again?"

Luliu raised her small face, enjoying the feeling of being flattered: "Isn't it? Those poor people in the south of the city don't have enough to eat and don't wear warm clothes. No, Miss is kind. Let me send the old clothes to the south of the city for distribution!"

The little servant cleverly praised: "Miss is kind, but Miss Luliu is also a great kind person. Where is the south of the city? It is dirty and messy, and the people there are also dirty and low-quality, just Miss Luliu. Don't dislike them, and even brought the clothes to send them over. I think, Miss Luliu is a very kind person!"

Lu Liu was in a good mood when he said that, the dissatisfaction that Wang Qiaoxin sent to the south of the city to deliver clothes was dissipated a little because of this boy.

It was only when she squinted at the boy proudly that she suddenly realized that there was a person standing there with a rather kind face.

Luliu frowned and looked at it for a while, the more she looked, the wider her eyes widened!
Mother!Isn't this the little village girl next to my uncle? !
Knowing that Luliu recognized her, Lin Yuan smiled and waved her little hand to greet her enthusiastically: "Long time no see, Miss Luliu, you are really getting more and more beautiful like a flower."

As beautiful as a flower?She really wants to hide this face now, so that she won't recognize it!

"You, you, who are you? I don't know you!" Lu Liu tightened the big bag in her hand, her voice began to tremble, "Hurry up, I don't know you! You, drive her away!"

After glaring at the boy, Lu Liu immediately asked him to throw Lin Yuan away, leaving the boy stunned.

Of course, Lin Yuan is not someone who can be blown away so easily, but seeing Luliu's terrified appearance now, she enjoys it very much, and smiled evilly: "Ms. Luliu, are you sure you want to blow me away? Ouch!" , I am the most cowardly person, but I can't stand being frightened. If you make people such a bombardment, my mouth fights, and I say something that shouldn't be said, then I will be in trouble. "

Luliu's eyes widened suddenly, and she was holding her throat and did not dare to let the servant yell at her anymore, but not being able to yell at people doesn't mean she is afraid of her.

"Don't scare me! Let me tell you, you'd better go through it in your head before you speak. Don't think this is your Fumanlou, this is Yecheng! In Yecheng, my young lady is the biggest person! Besides, I've heard that you Xiangmanlou has been involved in a life lawsuit. If you want to protect yourself, you'd better be honest. Maybe my lady will help you because of the fact that you and my uncle are from the same hometown. .”

After the shock at the beginning, Luliu's head was finally ready to use, and she regained her previous proud and proud look, threatening: "But, if you say something that shouldn't be said, I can warn you." You, you Xiangmanlou, don't even think about opening it in Yecheng!"

Lin Yuan's eyes darkened, confirming her conjecture once again. Lu Liu was so afraid of talking nonsense because she was afraid that she would tell about Chen Zhuzi's parents.Presumably, Wang Hong and Wang Qiaoxin looked down on Aunt Chen and the old couple, so they made up a non-existent life experience for Chen Zhuzi.

In fact, she also thought that Aunt Chen and his wife would be at odds with Wang Qiaoxin, his daughter-in-law, but what happened now was completely beyond her imagination.Disharmony is trivial, and now people don't recognize their parents-in-law at all!

What's even worse is that Chen Zhuzi actually agreed!This unfilial son!
The matter of Xiangmanlou has not yet been settled, and what she says now, in Luliu's view, is nothing more than bragging.

Lin Yuan curled her lips coldly, took a few steps closer, and asked softly, "Where are they?"

Lu Liu was oppressed by Lin Yuan and couldn't help but take two steps back, and said stiffly, "Who, who? I don't know who you're talking about?"

have no idea?Lin Yuan raised her eyebrows. If she doesn't know, then she doesn't know. Anyway, she already knows the answer.

Ignoring Luliu any more, Lin Yuan gave her a big white eye and got into her carriage: "Go to the south of the city!"
