Chapter 337
Hearing the words "almond tea" coming out of the little girl's mouth, Rao already knew that the almond tea was from Xiao Niang's handwriting, and Song Mian still couldn't help but light up his eyes.
After suppressing the excitement in his heart, Song Mian pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Almond tea?" What is Almond Tea? Is it a few almonds to put in the tea? ”
Song Mian's ignorance once again succeeded in amusing the little maid.
After laughing, the little maid cardinal explained to Song Mian again: "This almond tea is troublesome." The almonds must be smashed out first, sun-dried and then ground into powder before making tea.
Xiao Niang has made it twice, sweet and delicious. As she spoke, the little maid also stretched out her finger and pointed to a dustpan on the ground in the yard, and continued: "Well, I smashed it for an afternoon yesterday afternoon, and I smashed out so many almonds, and I don't know if it is enough for the little lady to make almond tea." ”
Song Mian smacked his lips and said, "With so many almonds smashed out at once, you can eat so much apricot meat." ”
With this sentence, Song Mian was purely to make the little girl happy. After all, the apricot meat of wild mountains is bitter and astringent, and most people buy it and only eat almonds and not apricot meat.
But because the little girl told him so many important things, he didn't mind making the little girl happier.
Sure enough, as soon as Song Mian's stupid words came out, the little maid laughed again. Happy said: "Where will it be, those apricot flesh are basically thrown away after being peeled out." How can you eat such an astringent thing......"
"By the way, why did you little lady send almond tea to Aunt Zhao? What's wrong with that? ”
The little maid shook her head and said, "I don't know what to do." It's just that Xiao Niang said that almond tea can calm her nerves, I guess Xiao Niang wants to send some almond tea to Aunt Zhao to make Aunt Zhao's spirit better......"
Song Mian kept talking around the apricots here, and Xiao Su on the other side was also at a similar pace.
Of course, Song Mian is relying on the almond tea matter to determine that Xiao Niang does have a share, and Xiao Su is to know whether Xiao Niang and the eldest woman are really as tense as rumored.
Under Xiao Su's persuasion, Zhang's mother finally said what Xiao Su dared to be interested in.
"Our little mother, yesterday I heard that the cardinal was Aunt Zhao's bad spirits, so I went out to buy apricots, saying that I wanted to make almond tea to send to my aunt.
This almond tea is a good thing. It's sweet and delicious, and it can also calm your nerves and help you sleep......"
"Did you see any suspicious people around when you bought apricots?"
Speaking of which, when Zhang's mother bought apricots, there was indeed a suspicious person around her.
But that person is Xiao Su himself. With Xiao Su's ability, how could Zhang's mother find out?
"That's it, since Mama Zhang hasn't seen anyone with suspicious deeds, I think I'm afraid that the vendor is dazzled."
After Xiao Su finished speaking, Zhang's mother nodded and echoed: "But it can be said that the vendor told me again when I came back from buying apricots, he should be dazzled." Speaking of which, this peddler is really ......."
Zhang's mother's chatter has to be said to be a double-edged sword.
Xiao Su was ready to say goodbye, and Zhang's mother kept talking.
However, it was also a coincidence, and after talking non-stop, Mama Zhang let Xiao Su hear another very important news, that is, Xiao Niang, a person, often sends some food to the Li family. It's not just that the Li family has an accident recently that someone was arranged.
In this way, it is rumored that the relationship between the eldest woman and the younger lady is not appropriate, and it is likely to be fake.
But to prove this matter, there is no way to ...... when Li Siwei's men are still staring at it
After casually saying a few polite words, and instructing Zhang's mother to pay attention to observation, and if she found anything abnormal, she went to report to the official, Xiao Su and Song Mian finally left the small courtyard accompanied by Li Siwei's men. cruel
The three of them had just walked to the mouth of the alley, and it happened that the vegetable vendor came.
Xiao Su didn't say a word, walked up to the vendor and asked with a serious face: "But you told people yesterday that there were suspicious people nearby peeping at the house?" ”
Xiao Su said seriously, and he was wearing an official uniform, and he frightened the vegetable sellers at once.
After being stunned for a while, he whispered: "Yes, there is such a thing......
After saying that, he closed his eyes, and his face was loveless.
I don't know what he was thinking......
Seeing the hawker's performance, Xiao Su couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
However, just when he wanted to ask, Song Mian couldn't help laughing.
With this smile, the peddler opened his eyes a little strangely, and he didn't seem so nervous.
Xiao Su glared at Song Mian angrily, and then continued to say to the vendor: "You say yes for a while, and say no for a while, what the hell is going on!" ”
The same question, the hawker had already answered yesterday.
And the person who came to him for questioning yesterday was precisely the person who accompanied Xiao Su and Song Mian today.
I saw the peddler stretch out his hand and say, "I told him all yesterday." The officials would have wanted to know and ask him. ”
Xiao Su was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at this colleague who had not spoken much.
"When the official asks you, you can answer honestly, where did so much nonsense come from." Li Siwei's subordinates were holding back their anger at Zhang's mother, and when they saw that a hawker dared to talk to him in this tone, his temper suddenly rose.
I'm afraid that Xiao Su and Song Mian are not here, he can directly show his arms and sleeves and fight with people.
was scolded for no reason, and the hawker also felt a little aggrieved in his heart. At the moment, some innocent said: "You scolded me yesterday, and you still scold me today." You're still unreasonable, I'm looking for you to provoke you, you just talk about me, why are you......"
Li Siwei's subordinates just wanted to reveal their official status, but suddenly remembered that they were wearing civilian clothes today in order not to cause gossip.
At the moment, I don't know what to do.
Xiao Su shook his head and said helplessly: "Okay, now that the official asks you, you honestly say, is there such a thing?" ”
"There is such a thing. Yesterday I saw it really, there were several people sitting in the teahouse opposite, looking at this side all the time, and I didn't know what was going on......"
"Then why did you change your tune later?"
"The king has no choice, who knows that when I told Zhang's mother, those people ran away."
Speaking of which, this peddler is also righteous. After saying so much, he never brought it up, and there was a little brother pretended by Di Renjie with him yesterday.
rushed to the hawker for this point, and Xiao Su immediately rewarded him with a few copper plates.
Let the hawkers report to the yamen as an excuse if they find anything again......
