After drinking the soup, Liang Xinming took the rice that was added to Huanxi, and the rice was piled with chicken legs, green peppers and beans, she ate the chicken legs first, and then ate the green peppers and beans. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After eating for a while, his stomach was not so empty, and then he said to Huanxi: "My little Huanxi's cooking is getting better and better." It's an authentic farmhouse!"
Zhao Ziyi had a bowl of rice in her stomach, and also praised: "Huanxi's craftsmanship is really speechless." He follows Liang Xinming every day, and he is not wronged when it comes to eating.
Huanxi likes to hear adults call her "Little Huanxi", feeling spoiled, loved, and affirmed, and she smiles big and flashes every time.
She squatted next to Liang Xinming, opened the folding fan to help Liang Xinming fan the wind, and said with a smile while watching the adults eat: "The maid also made a pot of fragrant snails, which has been stewed thoroughly, and I will send it back to let the adults talk about it." ”
Liang Xinming's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Xiao Huanxi is capable!"
He smiled happily and proudly, and said, "Eat braised fish at night." ”
Liang Xinming said: "You still borrowed fish?"
Huan Xi said: "Hey, I borrowed a lot of good things today. ”
Liang Xinming regretted: "I can't eat it." We have to go back to the city in the afternoon. ”
Huan said, "Then bring the fish back." ”
Liang Xinming shook his head and said, "It's not good." How can I take home borrowed things? The official is principled, and he can't eat and take cards. Let's bake and eat it in the afternoon. ”
Huanxi was stunned when he heard it.
Zhao Ziyi squirted out a mouthful of soup with a "poof", looked at Liang Xinming speechlessly, and felt that she was really black. But why didn't he hate it at all? It's quite pleasant. Well, as long as she's happy!
Eat and drink to their heart's content, and the three of them gossip.
Zhao Ziyi said: "With this lake, there is no fear of drought in the second half of the year." This year is sure to be a good year. ”
Liang Xinming nodded, and said, "Wait for next year, these fish can also be eaten." After autumn, buy some water chestnuts and lotus root seeds and put them in. I've asked my fellow countrymen, water chestnut seeds need to be planted after autumn to work, and lotus roots need to be planted in January and February. ”
Huan Xi said: "When the time comes, call grandma to come together, and we will row a boat to pick water chestnuts." ”
Liang Xinming smiled when he heard this, and thought to himself, he also wanted to raise hairy crabs.
She seems to hear "the waves of Honghu Lake", and hear "Taihu Lake is beautiful, and the beauty is beautiful in Taihu Lake", what will happen to this Qianshan Lake in the future?
After resting for a while, looking over there, the chief bookkeeper and the others had also eaten, Liang Xinming looked at the sun and said, "I'll go back to the city in a while." ”
At the end of the day, Liang Xinming and others left for the city, and it was evening when they arrived home.
Qiu Bo, who was at the wonton shop opposite the county office, greeted him from afar: "Your Excellency is back?"
Liang Xinming said: "Uncle Qiu is good. ”
Qiu Bo looked her up and down, and said in a distressed tone: "The adult has lost weight." Do you want to eat a bowl of wontons?"
Liang Xinming said: "No. Wait until tomorrow morning to send five bowls. "This wonton tastes very good, she and Chaoyun both like to eat it, and they often call for it. Of course, money is to be given.
Qiu Bo said happily: "Hey, send it tomorrow morning." ”
The fifth sister-in-law in the tavern next door heard the voice, hurriedly dropped the half-washed dishes in her hand, wiped the water on her apron, and ran out and said enthusiastically: "My lord is back?" I made that fish soup, and I'll give you a bowl later." ”
The Song sister-in-law's fish soup was made by Liang Xinming at her instruction.
Liang Xinming smiled: "Thank you, sister-in-law." No need to send it, I'll eat it myself another day. ”
The fifth sister-in-law promised again and again, telling her to go another day.
People from nearby shops and houses came out one after another, and at that time Liang Xinming had already turned into the front of the county yamen, they only saw the back of a horse, still sighing, praising and distressed, and they all said that Liang had lost a lot of weight.
After Liang Xinming went home, under the service of Hui Niang, he washed it vigorously and changed into refreshing clothes, and the fatigue came up.
But she couldn't rest yet, so she sat down in the back hall of the yamen and asked the fat fat who stayed behind: "Have Ding Ding and Green Wind come back?"
Chubby said: "Back to my lord, I came back and went out again." ”
Liang Xinming picked a few maids, in the end, only Cherry and Sisi made maids, Huanxi, Green Wind, Yingluo, Liang Xinming felt that it was too condescending to be placed in the inner house, and they were all useful, and arranged official business for them.
When she first arrived in Qianxian County, she looked through the files and found that there were no vicious criminal cases in the county, only in the past few years, there had been five intermittent cases of child abduction and trafficking, and the total number of missing persons was as high as 21, and the missing people were all girls between the ages of four and five to seven or eight.
The most recent case occurred just a month ago, when the former county magistrate had just been dismissed and she had not yet arrived, and the abductor seized the opportunity to abduct seven people.
Liang Xinming's expression was very solemn after seeing it, and after discussing it with Zhao Ziyi, he scattered the five boys and two girls.
Although Qianxian County is poor, there are also two great gentry in the city: one surnamed Du, who started in the silk business, and the other surnamed Tang, who is an official gentry, and his grandfather used to be a second-class official, but now the situation is declining, and there are thousands of acres of fertile land at home.
Ding Ding and Lu Feng are at Du's house at the moment, while Qing Mo and Liu Nian are outside the city.
When they first came, Ding Ding, Qing Mo and other five boys did not enter the city with Liang Xinming, but were assigned by Liang Xinming to change their outfits and mix in with the victims to inquire about the news, so as to find out the situation in Qianxian County as soon as possible, so that she would not be deceived by superficial phenomena.
After Liang Xinming looked at the case of the disappearance of the girl, he divided them into groups:
Qing Mo and Liunian group;
Tintin and Greenwind in a group;
a group of hemp and yingluo;
Chubby and Joy remained in the yaman.
Qing Mo has been mixed with the beggars on the street for more than a month, and he is wandering and begging with those people every day, and he has not taken any action.
He forbears like this, first, he wants to find out the situation before taking action; second, at that time, Liang Xinming and Zhao Ziyi went to Huizhou, and he didn't dare to forget at will, for fear that something would not be able to return to Liang Xinming in time, and the adult's plan would be ruined.
When Liang Xinming and Zhao Ziyi came back from the capital city of Huizhou, he did it. He and Liunian used the excuse of being bullied, fought back fiercely, and beat all the beggars and street ruffians in the city, and became the boss of the diving gang for a while.
The Diving Gang is a gang of beggars on the streets of Qianxian County.
Qing Mo has a sensitive sense like a beast, and after becoming the leader of the gang, he did not get carried away and reveal his identity, because he always felt that someone was secretly peeping at him.
Sure enough, that night, the old man of the former Diving Gang met him at a ruined temple outside the city. The other party brought a helper, who was said to be the previous gang leader, in his twenties, named Ah Qiu. As soon as Ah Qiu came, most of the beggars who had been around Qing Mo and Liu Nian dispersed, and they all gathered around Ah Qiu.
The summer nights after the flood were humid and muggy.
At the gate of the ruined temple, only a lantern is hung.
The light flickered on and off, and mosquitoes flew.
In the mountains in the distance, there was a faint wolf howl.
The ragged children had different expressions, staring at Ah Qiu and Qing Mo, waiting for them to decide the winner, and then choosing who to follow.
Ah Qiu smiled and walked over to Qing Mo.
