Chapter Fifty-Six: The Next Set
What the? Tang Zhongyuan was dumbfounded: they ordinary people have never seen such a good thing as bird's nest, so they can't tell it. But there are many powerful people in Jinling City, and there are not a few who have seen bird's nest, and Yuan Chuntang will also do such outrageous things as filling bird's nest with gnocchi?
"This is no joke!" Tang Zhongyuan said, "Miss Qiao, you just went in and came out, if they beat a rake, it won't be clear." "Although Yuanchuntang is just a medicine shop, if it weren't for the good relationship with the Jinling magnates, it would not be so big.
"Don't worry, in addition to physical evidence, I have witnesses." Qiao Ran said, "Come with me!" ”
And witnesses? Is that what they mean? Tang Zhongyuan glanced at each other with the two officials under him, and after a moment, he shook his head: "We are just waiting for you here, and we can't be witnesses." ”
"It's not you. Don't talk nonsense, come here! The girl urged to step into the Yuanchun Hall.
Lest Miss Qiao, a weak woman, be thrown out of Yuanchun Hall, Tang Zhongyuan and his two officials hurriedly followed.
"Why is it here again?" Seeing Qiao Ran just go out and turned back, the guy snorted, knowing it in his heart, but he was not in a hurry, and said with a long face, "Let me tell you, you go to the street to inquire about the name of Yuanchuntang, my Yuanchuntang Tongsu is not bullied, if you make trouble, I will be careful that the official government will cure your crime!" ”
"I don't need you to do it, I'll do it." Qiao Ran said and slapped the gnocchi in his hand that was similar to bird's nest on the square table in Yuanchuntang, "Is it okay to use the gnocchi to fill the bird's nest?" ”
The gnocchi that was pinched into the shape of a bird's nest cup, except that it looked a little similar to bird's nest, there was no resemblance to the rest.
Three officials also followed through the door.
The man's face froze, but he quickly calmed down: "I've really gone to report to the official!" Okay, a few officials sent the eldest brother to come just in time, this one asked for food to say that my Yuanchuntang used gnocchi to fill bird's nest, this kind of thing that makes people laugh and lose their big teeth, will I do it in Yuanchuntang? I didn't go out to inquire about who did business with my Yuanchuntang, if the gnocchi was made to fill the bird's nest, he would have been taken to prison a long time ago! ”
"Let your shopkeeper come here." The woman lifted her chin and looked arrogant, "I won't tell you." ”
Stinky and ready to eat? If the shopkeeper comes, she will feel good! The guy sneered, disagreed, turned around and shouted to the shopkeeper, and after a while, a middle-aged man in a robe walked out of the room.
"Why did you come to the official office early in the morning?" Xu is magnates have seen a lot, and when they see the official errand, the shopkeeper of Yuanchuntang is not as afraid as the general shopkeeper, but he smiled at Tang Zhongyuan and they copied their hands, and then looked at Qiao Ran, frowning slightly: "You are ......"
At first glance, the woman looked unkempt and looked like a begging for food, but that face was very good, and when he was surprised where this woman came from, he heard the medicine slave who had not spoken for a long time shout "Miss Qiao" and then saluted her.
This "Miss Qiao" made the shopkeeper and his friends of Yuan Chuntang change their faces together. They naturally know which family this medicine slave is, and the first slave surnamed Pei in Jinling. Although he is just a slave, because of this surname, he is not something they can offend on weekdays.
Before she had time to think about how many families there were in Jinling City, Qiao's surname, as soon as she saw that the slave of the Pei family was so polite to her, the shopkeeper secretly said that it was not good, and then looked at the "bird's nest" made of gnocchi on the table, and immediately became angry, and gave the guy a slap with his backhand.
"Fat you! Do this kind of thing too? ”
The man's face was already frightened, and he took out the ten taels of silver that Qiao Ran had taken out from his sleeve and put it on the square table, then knelt down and kowtowed: "The little one is fascinated for a while, spare the little one!" ”
The first bang slammed on the ground, and after a while, the ground of Yuanchun Hall showed a bit of blood.
This bastard is his own nephew, the shopkeeper couldn't bear to see it, and turned to Qiao Ran and said: "This Miss Qiao, it's the first time for Laifu to do such a thing, do you see if you can let him go this time?" As he spoke, he took down the brocade box with his backhand, opened the brocade box, and reached out to take some bird's nest to make amends.
"Slow!" Qiao Ran stretched out his hand to stop him from taking the bird's nest, and then smiled, "It's not the first time." ”
Not the first time? The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, the guy's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said to himself: "The little one is really just a ghost for a while......"
Qiao Ran took the brocade box with bird's nest in the shopkeeper's hand, put it in his hand for a while, and suddenly opened and closed it twice, and then, everyone only heard a "creak" sound, and a mezzanine appeared in the brocade box, and four or five "bird's nests" made of gnocchi were lying inside.
"You bastard!" The shopkeeper was furious, and turned around with a kick.
"I don't care if the two of you are colluding or unintentional." Qiao Ran closed the brocade box in her hand and nodded at the Pei family servant, "This time, thank you for the testimony." ”
These idle things, if they are irrelevant people, this slave of the Pei family will not be silent at all, but it is a coincidence that Qiao Ran has been to the Pei family, so this slave of the Pei family also recognized her, so he came forward to say something.
Whether it is power or reason, it is in Qiao Ran's hands, of course this Yuan Chuntang will not refute, and it is futile to argue at this time, it is better to simply admit it and expose the matter as soon as possible.
"This matter, what are you going to do in Yuanchuntang?" Qiao Ran hooked a stool over, sat down at the square table, and played with the "bird's nest" made of noodle in his hand.
The shopkeeper's face changed several times, and this woman didn't look like an ordinary person. Who knew that such a person would come to the door early in the morning dressed like a begging for food? Except for pointing out the mechanism in the brocade box, she didn't even look at the brocade box from beginning to end, obviously not for the bird's nest.
The shopkeeper was slightly determined: the other party came to the door with other plans, and he must have them. She got off a trap, and the kid jumped in a hurry, and now the entire Yuanchun Hall was pinched by someone. This bastard boy, when the time is gone, will definitely give him some color and see!
"Miss Qiao, take a step to speak." The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture.
Qiao Ran stood up, said "yes", and then turned to Tang Zhongyuan and said, "Wait for me here." If I don't come out for a long time, it's the murder of this Yuanchun Hall, don't let go of the people of Yuanchun Hall. ”
The shopkeeper's eyelids jumped when he heard this: so many people are watching! Who would dare to kill her?
Remember that they are the officials! It's not easy! Tang Zhongyuan coughed dryly and sat down at the square table: "Okay, Miss Qiao, let's go!" Within half an hour, if you don't come out or there is something wrong, I will go to the government and call someone to seal this Yuanchun Hall! ”
The shopkeeper hurriedly said "please" again, and took Qiao Ran to the inside, and when he came to the guy who was kneeling and kowtowing to the side, Qiao Ran paused and smiled: "Your gold belt is good!" ”
She found out yesterday. This guy from Yuanchuntang is very interesting, he wears a tattered outer robe, but the belt of his inner coat is inlaid with gold. Where did a drugstore guy get the money to build a gold belt? She guessed that the guy was not clean in his hands. Like the kind of powerless and ignorant people who come to buy medicine, they may drop the bag in their hands. Originally, I thought it would take some effort to distinguish between real and fake medicines, but I didn't expect him to even do such a thing as dough gnocchi filling bird's nest, so Qiao Ran didn't even have to distinguish between the real and the fake, and directly brought Tang Zhongyuan and them in to get people.
Of course, her target is not this guy, but this guy is related to the shopkeeper, and as long as something happens in Yuanchuntang, regardless of whether he is instructed by the shopkeeper or not, Yuanchuntang can't get out of it.
She didn't believe it, and at this time, she couldn't ask what she wanted to ask.
