food color and fragrance

Chapter 93
"ghost?"

"thief!"

Sanskrit and Zhong Xingyan had already recognized each other, and after speaking in unison, it was Zhong Xingyan who was the first to be happy, "He answered so quickly, and he actually admitted that he was a thief."

"You are the thief! It's really unlucky to meet you here!" Sanskrit rolled her eyes and wanted to turn around and go back. She didn't want to see this man. If you steal it, you won't be squeezed by Wen Xiyun like that.

Zhong Xingyan was very happy. Since the last time he ate the "braised duck meat" and "crab powder" vegetarian dishes made by Fanyin, he still can't forget it.

Drinking clear soup and white water all day, who can not think about meat?Although it is not meat, it has the taste of meat and vegetables. Looking at plums to quench thirst and painting cakes to satisfy hunger, he can only look at Chinese cabbage and sweet potatoes every day. He is exhausted and he can't think of the taste of meat.

Now that I meet this girl again, I can't let her run away!
"Don't go! Yang Huailiu, we've arrived at your door, don't you want me to come in and have a seat?" Zhong Xingyan was thick-skinned, "I don't know each other, let me apologize, not to mention the last time you beat me Hit, do you want to appease me?"

"No way! I am so full that I recruit a wolf at home? I don't want to know you at all." Fanyin didn't want to say any more, and walked home.

It felt like a gust of wind around her, and when she looked up again, Zhong Xingyan was already standing in front of her.

Sanskrit took a step back in fright, and scolded at the beginning: "Who do you want to scare to death?"

"I want to eat vegetarian food." Zhong Xingyan lost the patience to grind around, "It's not about love, it's about fate. Since I'm at your door, I won't leave. Tell me, how much money are you willing to do?"

"Not even a hundred taels of silver! No way!" Fanyin yelled angrily with his arms akimbo, "Get out of the way!"

"I won't let it!" Zhong Xingyan smiled at her with his arms folded, and Sanskrit's eyes widened, "Get out of the way!"

"Little girl, your family is also quite poor, so you don't want to add some household money to the family? One dish, just one dish!" Zhong Xingyan stalked him, Fanyin stretched out his hand and pushed him aside. With all the strength, this guy didn't move at all?
Fanyin felt a little pain in his wrist, why is this man like a wooden stake.

"You hurt me, you have to pay for it, just a vegetarian meal!" Zhong Xingyan looked at her with a smile, "I can still pay the money."

"No way! No matter how much money you have, no way to go to heaven and earth to ask grandpa to sue grandma!" Sanskrit sound exploded, Zhong Xingyan looked down at her, "Really not?"

"no!"

"Is it okay to give money?"

"no!"

Zhong Xingyan sighed, "Then I can find a way to make you cook vegetarian food for me without spending any money, do you believe it or not?"

Sanskrit looked towards the sky, "Unless the sun comes out from the west."

"Then let's wait and see." Zhong Xingyan took a step forward, and Fanyin took the opportunity to rush back home. Fang Jingzhi and Qing Miao were already at the door, and they were all dumbfounded. Fanyin entered the house, and they were still there in a daze Mu stared blankly.

Qing Miao only knew that this person was a thief who stole vegetables, Fang Jingzhi was even more surprised that Yang Huailiu was angry just now?She actually lost her temper?

In his heart, Yang Huailiu had always been a docile, sensible, calm and moderate girl, but after seeing this person, she started arguing with her feet, and even moved her hands.

Thinking that just now Yang Huailiu stretched out his hand and pushed that person, so it was considered close contact, right?

He...he seems to have never been so close to Huai Liu, even walking a distance of one meter.

"Qingmiao, beat the ground at the door with coarse salt particles to drive away ghosts and evil spirits. It's really bad luck to see a ghost in broad daylight!" The Sanskrit voice came from the courtyard, and Qingmiao immediately regained his senses and returned immediately with colorful clouds. up the yard.

Fang Jingzhi still stayed where he was, Zhong Xingyan didn't speak to him, he just looked at the young monk and asked, "Where is the county government office?"

"Little monk will take you there!" The little monk beamed with joy, this young master is finally ready to leave?You won't follow him back to the temple, will you?This is good news and will definitely make the host happy.

Sanskrit returned to the room with a headache, but she didn't let Chen Yingzhi's puppet get stabbed to death, but she almost died of anger when she saw the thief.

To spend money to make her a vegetarian?Toad wants to eat swan meat, wishful thinking!
The Sanskrit voice patted his chest angrily, and Fang Jingzhi had already returned, "Who is that person? Sister Huailiu knows him?"

"Thief!" Sanskrit yelled angrily, and Qing Miao also regained his strength at this time, "I met you last time when Miss accompanied Mrs. Fang to Fuling Temple, and he stole the vegetarian food made by Miss. Because of this matter, the lady was even run over by Miss Wen's family..."

"Qing Miao, don't talk about it." Fanyin didn't want to mention it. After all, this matter is related to Mrs. Fang. Who knows whether Fang Jingzhi will speak out quickly when she returns.It's been so long, but when it comes to it again, it seems that she is justifying herself.

Fang Jingzhi also understood a little bit, and he certainly didn't want to mention Wen Xiyun more.

"However, that young master probably didn't do it on purpose. He is willing to give money to invite Sister Huai Liu to cook in brocade clothes. He must also think that Sister Huai Liu is very skilled." Fang Jingzhi smiled happily, and bought it for a hundred taels of silver. He didn't have enough meals, but he often followed them.

Although this idea is a little naive, Fang Jingzhi just feels happy.

Fanyin pursed her lips. She didn't want to mention that person at all. Fang Jingzhi was also interested. There was a talk about leaving Qingcheng County, but she was no longer in the mood to listen to it now, and he was not interested in talking about it.

Fang Qingyuan was discussing with Yang Zhiyuan and Zhang Xianwei about measuring the cultivated land in Qingcheng County and counting the yellow books, Liang Dashan rushed in with a bitter and embarrassing face, winking at Fang Qingyuan.

Fang Qingyuan lost his patience, "Just say what you have, and you don't have to shy away from Captain Zhang and Master Yang."

Liang Dashan sighed, and had no choice but to say: "Lord County Magistrate, the son of General Huaiyuan has come to see you."

"Oh, ah?" Fang Qingyuan trembled in shock, stood up and asked, "Where is he?"

"It's right at the gate of the county government office, and there's a little monk by my side." After Liang Dashan finished speaking, Fang Qingyuan said, "Didn't I tell you last time to pretend not to know he's coming?"

"It's not what the humble official said, he came to the door by himself." Liang Dashan spread his hands, "And he also said that he will see you and Master Yang."

"And me?" Yang Zhiyuan was surprised. Although he had heard about this son of General Huaiyuan during his scientific examination in Beijing, he had never met him, let alone had any contact with him. How could he suddenly want to see him?

Fang Qingyuan cast his eyes on him, Yang Zhiyuan looked blank.

Lieutenant Zhang Xian was stupefied watching from the side, and said impatiently: "Who is it, as for scaring you like this, isn't it just a brat in a big mansion in Beijing!"

"Brother Zhang, don't underestimate this son. You must have heard of the reputation of General Huaiyuan. He is a general of the Northwest Army. When Xixia people mention it, they are frightened and want to escape. The son's reputation is no worse than his father's, but the fame comes from his difficult temper, but this little son is also a powerful person, he was taken to the army by General Huaiyuan when he was only ten years old, and he was promoted to be a servant Among them, as a military adviser, General Huaiyuan has always been strict in military discipline and never cheated for personal gain, so Mr. Zhong's military achievements are real, the emperor has always appreciated him, and his sister is even more loyal to his uncle's wife."

After Yang Zhiyuan finished his introduction with a smile, Captain Zhang Xian also nodded repeatedly.

In his heart, he doesn't care about his temper, as long as he can fight and fight, and has military merits, then he is a good man!

Yang Zhiyuan praised Zhong Xingyan, but Fang Qingyuan's face was full of worry, "Yes, he has excellent military skills and excellent strategies, but unfortunately he is also excellent at pestering people. Last year our Zuodu Censor Zhou My lord almost made him pass out from anger, scolding at court, how could Lord Zhou bear this anger? If the emperor hadn't comforted him personally, Lord Zhou would have the heart to retire and return to his hometown."

Zhang Xianwei had a good time, but didn't say a word anymore. For him, those literati should be scolded for their sour bookishness, and they are reasonable all day long. Are you tired?
The matter is urgent, and everyone can't say more about it, after all, the devil incarnation is still waiting for them.

"Master Yang, since Mr. Zhong also mentioned you, then you should go with the county to welcome you. Don't look at the face of the monk or the face of the Buddha, but look at the achievements of General Huaiyuan. If you can let it go, you can retreat." Just leave, huh?" Fang Qingyuan vaccinated Yang Zhiyuan in advance to avoid embarrassment later.

"Don't worry, magistrate." Yang Zhiyuan was also wondering, why did this person come to him suddenly?

Zhong Xingyan was sitting in the lobby of the county yamen, fanning the wind. He was wearing a light jacket, and the yamen servants around him were covered in lint, but didn't they feel the heat?
There were two fireplaces burning in the lobby, and he never liked the smell of charcoal, which confused his sense of smell.

The people around looked at Zhong Xingyan, even though they didn't know who this person was, they didn't step forward. Isn't he sick?The severe cold of Sanjiu is still fanning?The flesh on his body is made of iron, don't he know it's cold?
No one talked to anyone, and these people didn't go to courteous greetings, let alone look at him.

Seeing his appearance, even the fire stick in his hand felt trembling.

When Fang Qingyuan and Yang Zhiyuan came from the inner hall, they couldn't help being shocked when they saw this scene. They looked at each other, and they both saw that this person really lived up to his reputation and was really different from normal people.

"Mr. Zhong is coming, and the county is far away from welcoming you. Why don't you tell us in advance that we will welcome you. Now that Mr. Zhong comes to the door directly, General Huaiyuan will definitely blame us for neglecting you!" Fang Qingyuan said. After exchanging pleasantries, Zhong Xingyan stood up, saluted, and said with a smile, "Are you the county magistrate?"

"Exactly, Qingyuan below is the magistrate of this place." The corners of Fang Qingyuan's mouth twitched, but he still smiled.

Zhong Xingyan looked at Yang Zhiyuan again, "Then you are Master Yang?"

Yang Zhiyuan nodded, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Mr. Zhong."

"Is Yang Huailiu your daughter?" Zhong Xingyan asked, but Fang Qingyuan and Yang Zhiyuan were immediately stunned. Yang Zhiyuan nodded subconsciously, "It's my daughter, but how can she..."

"That's fine. I'm going to your house for dinner. She won't let me. You are her father. Please tell me to let me have this kind of food. Is there any place in your house? I live there three days a day. Meals are the best."

As soon as Zhong Xingyan said this, everyone was stupefied with fright.

Yang Zhiyuan's mouth twitched...
