delicious little cook

Chapter 545
After taking a comfortable nap for a while, the two woke up separately. It was really quiet in the porch outside the house, and the maids were probably still in their own room.

Amid Gu Yun's ingenious laughter, Bai Kou sat up and straightened her hair and clothes, went to the tea room to boil water, and after a while brought the tea tray back to the ear room. Looking at the ledger that came out, the two talked about business matters.

The maids took their afternoon naps and went to the anteroom to see if the prince was awake. At the door, they heard the voice of the prince and Bai Kou talking inside. They gently lifted the curtain and saw that the two of them were sitting around the low table. Discussing things with serious faces, various paper books were scattered on the surrounding floor, so they added some fruits and snacks, and changed the tea.

Gu Yun and Bai Kou focused on discussing business. As for those guys who joined forces to steal Bai Kou's recipes, they were handed over to the chief guard. Wen Gushan and his two buddies must not stay any longer. As for Lin Leren who directly ordered It’s okay to beat him half to death, because there is no evidence to connect him with Wang Xiaodong, so he can only be counted as angry, and it’s not worth spending the energy of a lawsuit on him. It is also common for people to have disputes.

When the East Kitchen started to prepare dinner, all the cooks and maids were busy in their positions, and Wen Gushan was no exception. Gu Yun's guards passed by at this time and told him directly that the big masters already knew that he was colluding with outsiders to try Regarding the theft of Bai Kou's private cookbook, his two accomplices have also been caught and confessed.

Amidst the stunned uproar, Wen Gushan's face turned pale, and he was paralyzed on the ground. To prevent him from talking nonsense along the way, he not only tied his hands behind his back, but was also forcibly gagged, and was dragged left and right by two guards Walk.

The personnel affairs of the East Kitchen belonged to the public, managed by the head room, and it involved Bai Kou, so it was only natural for the prince to come forward.

Zeng Zhu hurriedly sent a handyman out of the mansion to inform Wen Gushan's family, and asked their family to send someone to say goodbye. Now that they have obtained the evidence, they will definitely not keep him in the mansion.

The guards locked Wen Gushan and his accomplices together, and sent them to the government tomorrow morning, and they were not afraid that they would involve Mengmei's matter in the court, because the year was not over and the government did not try the case, so they could only be imprisoned temporarily.

When the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the government opens the seal of directors, the suspects who have been imprisoned during the Chinese New Year have to be interrogated one by one in the order of first come, first served. Who knows how long it will take for the case of the three of Wen Gushan, and during this waiting process, in the prison Dirty and dirty environments are breeding grounds for epidemics, enough to destroy them.

Originally, according to Bai Kou's temperament, she wanted to deal with it secretly. Even the coachman of Shizi didn't mind doing some dirty work to clean up the house, but Gu Yun felt that the lives of the three of them were too cheap to be dirty. The hands of his subordinates, so he finally decided to send it to the government. Dirty people are only worthy of staying in a dirty environment.

Wen Gushan's family received the report, crying and panicking to enter the mansion to plead for grievances with the elder and the eldest lady, but they were not allowed to enter the mansion at all gates, and they all said that it was too late to disturb the rest of the masters. , let them come back tomorrow morning.

The people from Wen's family tried a few back doors where they could enter the mansion, and they forced money to beg for convenience, but they refused.

Wen Gushan's dissatisfaction with Bai Kou's family is well known, but if they believe that Wen Gushan will collude with outsiders to steal Bai Kou's recipes and ignore the elders of the family, they feel that even if the sky falls, it is absolutely impossible.

In any case, he is the pillar of the family, and he was finally reinstated. Although he was downgraded to a manager, the monthly salary is enough to support the family, so there is no need to do such crooked things again.

Zeng Zhu also rushed to Jicheng Hall immediately, and first asked Mama Pang for news, and wanted to see if she could see the eldest lady.

Pang's mother only said that this matter should be handled by the son at his sole discretion, and the pleading is invalid if the evidence is solid, it is best not to humiliate yourself.

After all, Zeng Zhu was an old man in the house, understood what Mama Pang meant, and didn't dare to question the son's investigation, so she didn't even go to the Zhongming Courtyard, and turned back decisively to the East Kitchen to direct the cooks and cooks to make dinner first.

During dinner time, girls from various houses and courtyards came to get food boxes, and brought back the big news of the day, and all the masters, big and small, knew it soon.

The maids and servants in Gu Jingyuan immediately used this incident to mock Mengmei, laughing at how she was blind and had a relationship with this kind of man before. The outside voice gradually disappeared, and she threw herself on the quilt and cried happily.

At the same time, Aunt Fu and her two close maids in Fuliuyuan were so frightened that they could not hold their jobs securely, and their hearts were hanging in their throats, for fear that Wen Gushan would confess to their three masters and servants, so there would be no food for them. Appetite, but he couldn't withdraw it as it was, so he had to secretly pour out the food, pretending to finish eating, and send the empty food box back to the East Kitchen.

After dinner, Gu Yun went to say good night to the elders, and explained the matter to his grandmother in the Rong En Hall. The old lady praised her grandson with relief and said that he has grown up and can handle things.

That night, some people slept peacefully, while others did not sleep all night.

Early the next morning, Wen Gushan's family came to intercede again, wanting to see someone, but they were still not allowed to enter the mansion. It was not until the guards drove out and sent the three of them to the government that they let the family say a few words across the carriage.

Unable to regret it, Wen Gushan cried bitterly and told his wife to take good care of the old man and the children, while the family also cried, blaming him for being so confused.

The guards didn't give Wen Gushan much time to talk, and before it was time for a cup of tea, they drove the Wen family's people aside and drove straight to the yamen.

The yamen servant on duty in shift found that he was behind the scenes and put him in prison. Because he was a suspect sent by Duke Ye’s mansion, he took advantage of it again, so the three of them were able to share a prison to themselves. They all gave a lot of sweetness, and also gave them some special medicines, and asked them to treat the three people well in prison.

This is Bai Kou's meaning. Since they have committed adultery and cannot be punished by lynching, let them have a good taste of adultery in prison, and they will not be let too easily If you die, you must last until the trial, and those medicines naturally come from the previous guards who searched the evidence.

The jailers and yamen servants are old fritters. They understand such a big management and these special requirements, and they don't say a word.

As usual, when a suspect is taken in, the family members have to be notified, so before noon, the families of the other two knew that their man had committed a crime, and they dared to provoke Duke Ye's mansion, and were sent to prison with convincing evidence. Just wait for the opening of the seal in the next year to ask questions.

The family members of these two families were also in a panic, and hurriedly dug out money and goods to deal with government servants, and prepared food and clothes so that they could visit the prison in the afternoon.
