Chapter 64: The Lentil Scheme

Doudou slept soundly until late afternoon when he was woken up by the aroma of food. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Girl, you're hungry, get up and wash your face first." Fat Wheat Ears said as she poured hot water into the copper basin.

Doudou sat up from the bed, put on his shoes and walked to the dressing table to take a look: "Isn't this little black face unable to pretend to be after washing?" ”

Fat Mai Sui'er smiled: "Don't worry, the slave has a special pigment, which will be applied to you after dinner, and it will definitely not show its stuffing for ten days and half a month." ”

Doudou pouted and said, "Doesn't that even have to be wiped on the body?" It's ugly to die ......."

Fat Mai Sui'er pursed her lips and was happy, although the girl didn't like to be greased and powdered, she was actually quite stinky and beautiful.

After eating, Doudou simply took a good bath, I don't know how many days, taking a bath is completely impossible.

After taking a bath, Fat Mai Sui'er was still twisting her long hair with a handkerchief, and the secret guard came to report that the old man Meng who was guarding the door in the house had returned.

Doudou's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly ordered the secret guard to take people to the side room.

"Girl, when we came back, we saw you and Old Man Meng muttering, did you ask him to do something?" Fat Mai Sui Er picked up a comb and combed Doudou's long hair.

Doudou said: "Don't underestimate Old Man Meng, he was the most powerful scout in the army when he was young, and I asked him to investigate the situation of that small restaurant." ”

Fat Mai Sui'er simply tied a ponytail for her, and muttered: "Old man Meng looks like he doesn't eat oil and salt, and he doesn't care about anyone on weekdays, but you can actually talk to him." ”

Doudou put on a cotton robe, looked at the fat wheat ears and said with a smile: "The most important thing to get along with people is to be attentive and know how to respect people. ”

Fat Mai Sui'er moved her lips so that she didn't play tricks with the girl.

The master and servant walked into the side hall with their front and back feet.

Old man Meng is not at all like the old man who is lying on weekdays, and the whole person looks refreshed, as if he is several years younger.

"My subordinates have seen the girl." He didn't bow down, just hugged his fists.

Not letting him make a big salute was what Doudou had ordered before.

Seeing that he was really not polite to him, Doudou smiled and said, "Old Man Meng, please take a seat." ”

Fat Mai Sui'er didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly served hot tea to both of them.

Old man Meng was a cool person, and said directly: "Girl, my subordinates have already inquired about the situation of the shopkeeper Lao Zhangtou. ”

Doudou nodded: "Please speak." ”

Old man Meng said: "Lao Zhangtou is fifty-six years old this year, a native of Hangzhou, Zhejiang, his mother died early, and he has been working in a small shop called Yang Ji Wonton in Hangzhou since he was eight years old. Seeing that he was nimble and down-to-earth, the shopkeeper married his only daughter to him when he was eighteen years old, which can be regarded as a son-in-law for the elderly. ”

Doudou suddenly realized: "No wonder his surname is Zhang, and the small restaurant will be called Yang Ji, it seems that this person is very affectionate." ”

Old man Meng bowed slightly: "That's true, after he joined the Yang family, the husband and wife loved and the family was harmonious, and Yang Ji's business was getting better and better." But the family has little ambition and has never thought about expanding their business, so they stay at that wonton shop.

More than ten years ago, the couple sent away the old shopkeeper and his wife, and handed over the business to their two sons to take care of. ”

Doudou said: "It seems that cooking is completely an interest, otherwise I wouldn't have come to this small shop and still only buy wontons and xiaolongbao." ”

The interests and means of livelihood are so clearly distinguished, and I want to come to Lao Zhangtou to learn to cook specifically to satisfy some people's hobbies.

As for who these "certain people" are, she can't speculate, but thinking that he was forced by Du Ye to cook for the "head" surnamed Zhang, he must be reluctant.

Old man Meng said: "Three years ago, there was a murder in the Yang Ji wonton shop, it is said that someone ate poisonous wontons in the store and died, and later Lao Zhangtou's family was sentenced to exile.

Now there are only six guys in the small shop except Lao Zhangtou, all of whom are locals of Liangzhou, although he is old but very shrewd, but he never lets the guys handle everything involving money, and even buys daily vegetables and seasonings He personally goes to the market. If the girl wants to know the details of his family, his subordinates will inquire. ”

The punishment of exile? Doudou was secretly shocked in his heart, this sentence was really heavy enough, and the identity of the poisoned guest was not simple......

Thinking about it, the old Zhang Tou family must have suffered a lot.

Three years ago, he opened a small shop in Liangzhou City alone, and he didn't know what the situation of his wife and children was like now.

With Old Man Meng's strength, although it is not difficult to find out such a thing, it takes time.

What she lacks most now is time, and it doesn't really have much to do with what she's about to do.

She waved her hand and said, "This is detailed enough, you have worked hard, go back to your room and rest early." ”

Old man Meng didn't drag the mud and water, stood up and hugged Doudou again, and then retreated.

After he left, Doudou looked at the tea bowl on the table and didn't move.

After a stick of incense, the fat wheat ears couldn't stand it anymore and coughed lightly.

Doudou said: "Mai Sui'er, what do you think I can use to sneak into the small shop as a buddy as soon as possible?" ”

Fat Mai Sui'er said: "It's just a small restaurant, and it's already hired six guys, how can you still want such a black and thin bean sprout?" And didn't you listen to what Old Man Meng said, that old man is very shrewd, the guys all only hire locals from Liangzhou, and they still hold all the money in their hands for three years, don't dream. ”

Doudou pestled his small chin and said, "That's why I don't think it'...... easy."

Fat Mai Sui'er was secretly funny, it was good if she couldn't get in, so she didn't have to worry about it.

Doudou tapped on the table with his slender fingers, and an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, just now Old Man Meng said, Lao Zhangtou's mother died early, so ...... Will his father continue the strings?

She thought here, and the words had come out of her mouth.

Fat Mai Sui'er said without thinking: "Definitely, how many men will be like His Royal Highness King Fu?" And all of them continue in the name of taking care of children. ”

Doudou snapped his fingers and smiled: "There's a way, let's go back and smear the little black face now, remember to make me miserable." ”

Fat Mai Sui'er was confused, and when she saw that the girl had already walked out of the side hall, she had no choice but to follow.

"Girl, tell the slave how to do it." The fat wheat ear man did not hesitate to ask.

Doudou smiled: "It is not uncommon for children to work in wonton shops at the age of eight, but who would be an ordinary man who would want to be rich?" Presumably, Lao Zhangtou is having a hard time at home, and Bacheng was tortured by his stepmother, so I will give him a good play tomorrow. ”

Fat Mai Sui'er's fat face was wrinkled into meat buns, but she still couldn't understand what she wanted to do.

Doudou didn't explain much, but just smiled: "Please ask Miss Mai Sui'er to invite Old Man Meng over again......" (To be continued.) )
