Chapter 426: A Private Visit by the Monarch and Minister
Xie Mengxing hurriedly ran out of the house, but found that there was a large bowl on the table, which was also steaming pimple soup, but today's pimple soup was different from yesterday's, there were chopped vegetables, egg flowers, and fragrant in advance, and the most important thing was that the gnocchi was thin and even, and when I looked at it, my index finger moved, and my saliva flowed.
"You, do you know how to cook?" He asked stupidly.
The county lord on the opposite side bowed slightly.
"Then you still know how to settle accounts?"
The county lord nodded again.
Xie Meng was dumbfounded, "God, what else can't you do?" ”
He couldn't help but leaned over, with a curious expression, "You're not a noble lady of the clan, how can you do anything?" ”
The county lord smiled reluctantly, "In the clan, you can't be industrious and indistinguishable, knitting female red, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, medical skills and cooking, writing and bookkeeping, you must always understand a little bit, so as not to be deceived by the people below...... In addition to those real concubines, there are a few who can care about nothing! ”
Hearing the county lord's explanation, Xie Meng was really happy, but he felt ashamed of himself, and said angrily: "You can do anything, but it seems that I am a useless person!" ”
The county lord looked at her husband's humble appearance, and couldn't help laughing, she said softly: "Master, if it weren't for you, the slave family wouldn't even be able to be a human being, and you would be the pillar of this family!" Did the slave family really not expect that the men of the Han family would be so considerate and know how to cook? Shatuo men will never go into the kitchen for the rest of their lives! ”
Xie Meng was even more embarrassed, what kind of cooking is he called!
It's a shame!
"When I was in the barracks, Master Hou always said that eating and drinking Lazar is combat effectiveness, and he also cooked us once?"
"Master Hou? Champion Hou? ”
"Well, once again, Hou Ye went to our camp, and it happened that I hunted a wild boar, and Hou Ye was interested, so he personally handled the wild boar, and got some yams, and stewed a big pot full of them, not to mention how delicious it tasted! I'll never forget it for the rest of my life. ”
The county lord smiled and nodded, "Go back and give the master a pig's leg and let the master taste it." ”
"That's a good idea!"
Xie Meng felt that he had caught Bao'er.
"You rest at home first, I'll go to the warehouse and settle accounts with these eight lambs!"
He grabbed the list that the county lord had calculated and ran outside.
The county lord couldn't help but say: "Master, you have to spare people and spare people!" ”
Xie Meng paused, hesitated, shook his head and said, "I can't listen to this, Master Hou asked me to kill, I can't kill if I don't kill it!" ”
The county lord's face changed slightly, but he didn't dare to say more.
A man is a man after all, a heaven above his head.
The men of the Han family are already much better than the men of Shatuo, they speak kindly, they know the pain and the heat, this is enough, what else is there to ask for!
Think about your mother, she is the side room, she has been strong all her life, she has been fighting with her wife for more than ten years, and her skills are also learned from her mother. Then she got old, sick, and couldn't move.
His father just stood at the door and looked at it, and then left in disgust, he didn't do anything, let alone a bowl of soup, a bowl of medicine, even a bowl of water, he didn't pour it for his mother. Women are born to serve people, let alone a concubine, how can you care about your life or death, your mother died of illness in the cold winter.
Yesterday morning, the day after getting married, my husband made himself a bowl of pimple soup, although it was not delicious, but it was something that my mother had never looked forward to in her life, and it was heartwarming!
The county lord smiled, cleaned up the room, and waited quietly for the man to come back, or, this is called happiness!
……
Xie Meng rushed to the warehouse, and when he was halfway there, he suddenly remembered that he didn't go directly, but turned his head to find Zhao Yusheng, and shouted when he saw him, "Shengzi, transfer twenty servants to me." ”
"What do you want so many people for? Didn't you see that I'm busy! Zhao Yusheng said impatiently.
"You're catching petty theft, what's the big deal? I'm different, I'm a bunch of big fish, fat! Xie Meng said proudly.
"Really?" Zhao Yusheng was suspicious, "You just took over, there are so many things in the warehouse, do you know clearly?" ”
"Hehe, tell you, I've really had good luck, I've cultivated eight lifetimes of virtue, and I've made a lot of money!" Xie Meng took what his daughter-in-law had calculated, and kept showing off along the way, and he was about to fly happily.
"Katsuko, how is your lady? Not as good as my lady, right? ”
Zhao Yusheng said twice, "She can't do it...... At most, I can do acupuncture, and I can prick my arm, not to mention, I ran in the market for a day yesterday, my waist doesn't hurt, and my legs are fine. The wind chill that has fallen in the past few years of the war has healed! ”
These two goods are bragging, showing affection, and other people can't listen to it.
If they weren't officials, they would be arrested by twenty servants and thrown into Fenshui to feed Wang Ba, knowing that they would have to bear the consequences of abusing single dogs!
Xie Meng led people all the way to the warehouse and directly arrested a few guards from yesterday.
"According to the accounts, there are a total of 20 buckets of Jinsha in stock, and now there are less than two catties left, where is the Jinsha? Say! ”
Several guards looked at each other and grinned wryly, "My lord, we really don't know!" ”
"You don't know? Then call me! ”
Zhao Yusheng gave his subordinates a look, and immediately hung a few guards on a poplar tree, picked up the whip of raw cowhide, and whipped it violently, beating the skin and flesh open, and the blood was dripping.
These guards couldn't bear it anymore.
"Let's say, let's say!"
"Speak!"
Xie Meng took a pen to record.
"There are twelve buckets of these golden sands that were taken away by the concubine Zhenjun, and six buckets are let be given by your men and horses, and they were snatched away, and the rest is let us divide them equally!"
Xie Meng glanced at Zhao Yusheng, and immediately went to the house of these guards, and sure enough, a lot of golden sand was found from the cellar, adding up to almost two buckets.
But how could such a little satisfy the appetite of both of them.
"Go to Jeong-joon's house!"
The two of them took a whirlwind and went straight to Jeong-joon's mansion.
Speaking of which, it is also a high gate for horses, and idlers can't get in.
But they don't care, a dead horse is a dead horse!
The two of them went in, and came out half an hour later, and found fifteen buckets of golden sand, and Zhenjun nodded and sent a box of money.
"I'm really sorry for the two of you, there are three other buckets for me to spend, I'm a bastard, I'm damned, I'll make up for it with this money. Ask for two kind words, and spare me this time. ”
Xie Meng and Zhao Yusheng looked at each other, "Master Ma, you are smart, there is nothing else to say, the brothers will trouble you in the future, you have to cooperate well!" ”
"Understood, understood! I understand everything! ”
After sending off the two plague gods, Jung-jun returned to the house, closed the door, and looked up to the sky and laughed...... It's easy to talk about asking for money! If you want money, you won't want my life!
This is considered to be out of the ghost gate!
"Ye Hua, they all say that they are vulgar and martial artists, they can't do things well, and they can't govern the people, what do you think of this?" Chai Rong asked casually.
Ye Hua was unconvinced: "The minister is also a martial artist, and the minister feels that there are many things, and he must use crude methods!" The so-called hearing is false, seeing is believing. Your Majesty might as well go and see for yourself, and it will be clear at a glance. ”
"Good!"
Chai Rong nodded, "I was going to see if those boys came out of the barracks, can they be good officials!" ”
After discussing it, the two monarchs and ministers immediately changed into civilian clothes, dressed as two merchants, and took a few guards dressed as men to the street together.
The city of Jinyang is majestic, and the streets are spacious and regular, and they walk on the streets, not to mention, they are much cleaner and tidy, and they don't look like they have experienced a big war at all.
Most of the shops on both sides of the street are still closed, but some of them have been laid down.
Although there are not many guests, it is a good reminder that the city has come to life.
Chai Rong and Ye Hua both had a hint of surprise in their eyes.
"Yes, my hands and feet are quite sharp."
Ye Hua said happily: "The soldier is a resolute man, and the minister still feels that he is not fast enough!" ”
Chai Rong laughed, "You, you're so anxious to help them say good things, aren't you afraid of being blinded?" ”
"Real gold is not afraid of fire!" Ye Hua said proudly.
"Well, I'll see how they look!"
Chai Rong took a look, there was a teahouse on the side of the street, they walked in, there were few customers, they asked for two tables on the side, ordered two pots of tea, and a few plates of snacks.
As soon as he sat down, not long after that, a man walked in from the outside, he had an eagle on his left arm, and his right arm was raised, revealing a large tattoo, and he didn't know what it was, anyway, it was very bluffing.
He shook his arms and came to the tea table in the middle, stepped on the chair with one leg, and coughed heavily.
"Where's the shopkeeper? If you don't come out, don't blame me for smashing this restaurant! ”
As he spoke, he literally grabbed a teacup.
The shopkeeper was a little old man, who hurriedly ran over and said with a smile: "Master Tiger, you always pity me, don't smash it, if you smash it, I will do it in vain for half a month!" ”
The tiger master pursed his mouth and said indifferently: "You old boy secretly opened the door to do business and make a lot of money, and didn't tell the tiger master!" Did you look at the tiger master who died in the chaos of the army, or was captured and sent to hard labor? Tell you old boy, no! The tiger is alive and well! ”
This guy was in a lively spirit, and shouted at the few tea customers: "Listen to all of you, don't worry about changing the dynasty, the tiger master is finished!" Since my grandfather's generation, I have been walking sideways in Jinyang City! We just pay attention to the rules, otherwise how can we mix so strong! ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the eagle on his arm, squinting his eyes, "Do you want me to talk nonsense?" Let's take that out of the way! ”
The shopkeeper's face turned bitter, and he pleaded: "Master Hu, the shop was closed for a month before, and it just opened, but there is really none!" Please forgive me a few days! ”
"Grace?"
Hu Ye sneered: "You have no money, Lao Tzu is still hungry!" ”
As he spoke, this guy took out a dog butcher knife from his boots, shook it at the shopkeeper, and then smiled, "Don't worry, Master Tiger won't hurt you!" He turned the blade and aimed it at his arm, "Master Tiger is in your shop, cut yourself twice, no one will say anything, right?" ”
He did raise the knife and aimed it at his arm.
Chai Rong and Ye Hua looked at each other, and the monarchs and ministers understood that this "Tiger Master" was a hooligan, and he really dared to cut twice on himself.
The teahouse is open for business, if someone is covered in blood and makes a lot of noise, who will dare to come in? See, the other guests are ready to leave?
If the shopkeeper wants to do business safely, he has to give him some meaning and send him away.
"This tiger master is not a big traitor, but he is even more hateful than ordinary wicked people! There are many such scoundrels in the capital, that is, hob meat that cannot be steamed or cooked! ”
Chai Rong had a gloomy face and didn't speak, but judging by what he meant, he was already about to issue an edict to arrest people...... At this moment, from outside the teahouse, Zhao Yusheng led people into the teahouse.
He saw the tiger master at a glance and walked straight over...... Ye Hua hugged his shoulders, interested, he wanted to see how Zhao Yusheng dealt with this little rascal!
