Chapter 43: Encounter with Su Xian
"It's you, such a coincidence!" Sichuan pepper bows its head and eats noodles.
The taste of the noodles is good.
The rich soy sauce soup is filled with a little shredded meat and topped with a handful of green onion leaves, which are mixed with the aroma of the meat, and the entrance is smooth and delicious, with a moderate amount of saltiness, which is very delicious.
"yes, I didn't expect to meet you here, I wanted to go to the village to meet you!" Su Xian poured her a cup of tea, pushed it in front of her, and said softly, "Are these days okay?" I heard my mother say, you sold chestnuts on the dock a few days ago, did their family force you to sell them? ”
He knew that she was having a hard time in the Pei family.
used to cry in front of him before, but since she was bullied by Pei Man last time, she was like a different person, and he always thought that she was blaming him and failed to protect her.
"No, I want to." Hua Jiao smiled at him reluctantly, "I heard that you are going to spring soon, how can you have time to come out?" ”
The original owner did rely on him.
But she is not the original owner, and she has no interest in such a little white face, let alone has the heart to entangle with him.
"Come here to do some errands, and I'll be back to Tongcheng soon." Su Xian looked around and said in a low voice, "Huajiao, I heard about something when I was in Tongcheng, I don't know if I should tell you or not......
"If you don't think you should be, you don't have to say anything." Sichuan pepper picks up shredded meat and eats it with relish, as a reader, it's too gossipy, right?
Seeing Hua Jiao say this, Su Xian was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and still opened his mouth: "Hua Jiao, I know that you have a hard time in the Pei family, especially after Pei Ze comes back, you will not be free, but if Pei Ze is a good person, I can't say anything, but Pei Ze, you really can't marry...... He, he is the third master of Qinglongzhai in the northwest, I heard that it was because of disagreement with the big boss that he left Qinglongzhai...... You must stay away from him in the future, lest he hurt you. ”
"No, it's not him." Hua Jiao quickly interrupted his words, and said unhappily, "Su Xian, if there is no evidence, don't talk nonsense, I believe that the government will find out......"
Although at that time, she also suspected that the four men in black were killed by Pei Ze.
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was impossible, if Pei Ze wanted to kill them, he would kill them at that time, and it was impossible to go to the town in the middle of the night to seek revenge, so the death of the four men in black must be someone else.
"Huajiao, you have to believe what I said, I didn't deliberately plant it out of nowhere, but someone ......saw it with their own eyes," Su Xian said in a low voice, "I don't believe it, wait and see, the government will find Pei Ze soon." ”
"Someone saw it with their own eyes?" The peppercorn looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Who is it?" ”
"I don't know about this, I have a distant cousin who works on an errand in the Yamen, and I just listened to him." Su Xian looked around again, lowered his voice again, and said, "My cousin knows that Pei Ze and I are neighbors, so he specially asked me a few words, otherwise, I don't know about this matter!" ”
"You tell your cousin that Pei Ze didn't kill anyone." After eating the noodles, put five copper plates, got up and walked out of the noodle restaurant, and suddenly felt a mess in her heart, although she and Pei Ze are nothing, they are partners after all, and they have worked together for more than two months, of course she doesn't want him to have an accident...... If something happens to him, maybe she won't be able to leave the Pei family smoothly.
Just thinking about it, someone slapped her on the shoulder, Feng stood in front of her with a smile and asked, "What are you thinking about so distractedly, you can't hear it." ”
"Cousin." Hua Jiao was very surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Why are you here?" ”
"Your uncle has gone to sea, I'll just go shopping." Feng affectionately took the arm of the peppercorn, "Let's go, come with me to buy an elbow, and then you go to my house to teach me how to make braised elbows, just now I saw him and that Sheng Mingyan walking around on the other side of the dock, I told them okay, come to the house for dinner in the evening, and you just happen to come over with you." ”
"Okay." Sichuan pepper readily agreed.
She felt the need to relay Su Xian's words to Pei Ze.
Let him also have a mental preparation.
After buying the elbow and seasoning, Sichuan Pepper followed Feng to her house.
Feng's house is in the town, not far from Nanshi and Beishi.
The location is very good.
It's just that the house is not big, about half of the Pei family, four main rooms with two ear rooms, the yard is very small, the house is very tidy and tidy, and you can vaguely hear the noise on the dock.
When it came time to cook, Hua Jiao told Feng his plan.
She said she wanted to rent a shop in North City to do business.
Feng Shi was very surprised: "The third child of your family is so capable, what kind of business do you do when a woman comes out and shows your head?" If I were you, I would hurry up and have a baby with him, let me tell you, the sooner a woman gives birth, the better the man will be to you, especially a person like the third child, you have to tie him with a child. ”
Not again......
Hua Jiao was speechless.
After a pause, he coughed lightly: "Cousin, I don't want to live in the village...... This is also the meaning of the third brother. ”
"Oh, that's right!" Feng Shi realized, "Yes, your big family is indeed noisy, you can move out." ”
"So I want to ask my cousin to help me find a shop." Sichuan pepper said calmly, "Didn't you say that the braised elbow I made was delicious?" Then I'll specialize in making some braised pork or something to sell, anyway, the people on the dock are in a hurry, and you can eat a ready-made one when you enter the store, I think it will work. ”
In her previous life, when she was in high school, her parents opened a braised meat shop at the school gate, and the business was very good.
During her summer vacation, she was there every day to help, and she still knew the general process or something.
To do business, you must start with the industry you are most familiar with and understand.
"That's a good idea." Feng's eyes lit up, and he nodded again and again, "Don't worry, I'll help you find the shop, anyway, I'm idle at home, so I can help you." ”
"yes, that's great, thank you, cousin." The peppercorns are in full bloom.
The two of them stewed their elbows with laughter, fried a plate of shredded squid, mixed a plate of jellyfish head cold vegetables, fried peanuts, and when they were ready, they moved a bench in the pot and sat in the yard, drinking tea while waiting for the men to come back.
waited until the sun turned west, Wang Rong came back from the sea, and Pei Ze and Sheng Mingyan did not come over.
Seeing that the food was cold, Feng urged Wang Rong to find the two of them.
After a while, I saw Wang Rong leading Sheng Mingyan into the door in a hurry, and when he saw the pepper, Sheng Mingyan's face sank, and he asked with a face: "Huajiao, what did you say to that Su Xian at the Dadao Noodle Restaurant at noon?" ”
When the little girl was talking to the little white face in the noodle shop, he and Pei Ze saw it.
But Pei Ze didn't say anything, and he didn't want to ask.
But now that something has happened, he can't help but ask.
"Didn't say anything? What's wrong? "Sichuan pepper is confused.
"Just now Pei Ze was taken away by the people of the Yamen, saying that he was related to the murder of the protective forest." Sheng Mingyan looked at her sharply, and said word by word, "Let me ask you, in your heart, Pei Ze or Su Xian, which is more important?" ”
