"At noon, an old man and a young man came in and ordered the Buddha to jump over the wall, after eating, when the two walked to the door, the old one vomited blood and died, and the small one insisted that there was something wrong with our meal." Xu Youshang breathlessly said, "Now, the yamen has sent someone to seal our Mingxiang Building." ”

"How is this possible?" Feng exclaimed.

"How did you get here?" Hua Jiao tried to calm himself, and Xu You hurriedly said, "I hired a carriage from the car dealership." ”

"You go out and wait for me, and I'll go out in a moment." Hua Jiao forced a happy face to say goodbye to Wang and Pei Chunhua, "Mother, aunt, I'm very busy in the store, I'll leave first, let's meet another day." ”

"Oh, the third daughter-in-law, don't be in a hurry to leave if you finally come here!" Pei Chunhua pulled her and said enthusiastically, "Listen to my aunt's words, stay for dinner at night, aunt, I have to thank you, if it weren't for the two of you, how could I get married so quickly!" ”

"It's my daughter-in-law, let's go back together in the evening!" The Wang family was honored and said with a smile, "Such a big happy event, our mother's family, we can eat a few more happy meals." ”

"That's it, your third child didn't come today, I feel very upset, you have to drink and eat for him, and when the third child comes back another day, I have to punish him." Pei Chunhua pulled her into the house, "Come, sit with your mother, let's have a good drink together." ”

"Mother, girl, I really have something." Hua Jiao reluctantly smiled, "You eat, I'll go back and see, if it's okay, I'll be back soon, maybe the third brother will come back today!" ”

As soon as Wang heard that Huajiao said that Pei Ze would come back today, he hurriedly said: "It's okay, let her go back to the town first to see if the third child has come back, and when the third child comes back, they will come over together." ”

Only then did Pei Chunhua let go of her, and repeatedly instructed: "When the third child comes back, I must come!" ”

Sichuan pepper answered and walked out of the house quickly.

Feng Shi had already called Wang Rong over: "Let's go back with you." ”

Hua Jiao didn't refuse: "Then let's get in the car!" ”

The mountain roads are rugged.

But Xu You still drove the carriage up, and rushed to Mingxianglou all the way.

A seal was affixed to the door of Mingxiang Building.

Many people stood there and pointed: "I heard that the Buddha jumped over the wall and died, it's too scary, who will dare to order this dish in the future." ”

"But the last time we went to eat, it was good!"

"Who knows!"

When everyone saw the peppercorns jumping down from the carriage, they scattered like birds.

Shopkeeper Wang squeezed in front of Huajiao from the crowd, frowned and said: "Miss Huajiao, I think this thing is too strange, even if it is the ingredients of each other, there is no immediate death, nine times out of ten someone is cheating." ”

On the day Pei Ze and Sichuan pepper got married, he also ate Buddha jumping over the wall in Mingxianglou.

The soup is rich in flavor and delicious, and there are absolutely no ingredients that match it.

Even if there were, it wouldn't make people vomit blood and die immediately.

What kills people on the spot can only be poison.

"Thank you for your trust, I will investigate this matter thoroughly." Hua Jiao said gratefully, "I'll go to the yamen and ask to see what they say." ”

"You go quickly, if there is anything you need help with, although we say, our Chamber of Commerce will not sit idly by." Shopkeeper Wang hurriedly said, "Lao Li Tou and Lao Lin Tou are good people, they will be fine." ”

The shopkeeper Tang was not there, and the Mingxiang Building was empty.

Hua Jiao went back to the new house and took some fine soft silver and put it on his body, and asked Xu You for the details at that time.

"The owner, not long after the old man fell to the ground, someone from the yamen came to take Uncle Li and Uncle Lin, including the shopkeeper Tang, and I was tethering horses to other guests in the small alley, or Cheng Gongzi ran over to tell me, saying that I should not go back to the restaurant, and hurry up to report to the owner, I could only watch them being taken away." Xu You said with a gloomy expression, "Boss, what should we do?" ”

"Cousin, you and your cousin will help me look at the store for a while, and I will go to the county government with Xu You." The more I thought about it, the more strange I felt, why did the people from the Yamen coincidentally be nearby at the time of the incident...... Is it a coincidence?

"Okay, you're busy with yours, just leave it to us here." Wang Rong nodded again and again, and said to Xu You, "Xu You, take care of the owner." ”

"Just let your uncle look at the shop here, and I'll go with you." Feng Shi was not at ease, and pulled the pepper into the carriage without saying anything, but the pepper no longer insisted, "Then let's go!" ”

Halfway through, I saw Cheng Shen standing on the side of the road beckoning, and Hua Jiao lifted the car curtain: "Cheng Gongzi." ”

Cheng Shen didn't say a word, jumped into the carriage and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to her: "Huajiao, the county lieutenant of Yamen is my buddy, you give him this letter, if he can help, he will help." ”

Huajiao took the letter and was very grateful: "Thank you Cheng Gongzi." ”

When something like this happens, others avoid it.

But he also rushed to help, saying that he was not moved, it was fake.

"Sichuan pepper, the wood show will be destroyed by the forest wind, you take care." Cheng Shen looked at her meaningfully, jumped out of the carriage, and walked away.

"By the way, isn't the third child in Tongcheng, let's just go find him." Feng said, Hua Jiao nodded, "That's what I mean." ”

The three of them rushed to the yamen.

Wu Zhixian was not there, and the doorman didn't know what to ask.

"Official, I'm from Wutong Town, and I have an urgent matter, please let the official tell me one or two." Huajiao took out a piece of broken silver and handed it to the doorman, who put it in his hand and said with a pleasant face: "Lord Wu took his family to Yucheng to incense, and he can come back in the evening." ”

Huajiao asked Pei Ze about his whereabouts again, and the doorman told her very happily: "Pei Sanye took those people from the coastal defense team to Qianfeng Island to practice the formation the day before yesterday, and I don't know when I will come back." ”

"I heard that there was a murder in Wutong Town, and a few people were brought, does the official know where those people are locked up now?" Sichuan pepper asked again.

"Girl, don't ask, I only know that those three people are locked up in prison, and if Wu Zhixian doesn't come back, he won't hold a trial." The doorman understood, waved his hand again and again, "You better find a place to live and wait for the news slowly!" ”

"Where does the county lieutenant live?" Sichuan pepper asked again.

The doorman was a little embarrassed.

Huajiao immediately took out another piece of silver and handed it to him: "Don't worry, the official, I said that I found out about it myself, and it will definitely not affect the official." ”

"Alas, I really can't help you." The doorman checked the piece of silver again, grinned and said, "The owner of Juxian Building is his wife, and you can find him when you go to Juxian Building." ”

Sichuan pepper thanked him repeatedly.

I got into the carriage and went to Juxian Building.

The scale of Juxian Building looks similar to that of Mingxiang Building, and it is also a three-story building.

It was evening, and there was a lot of people inside.

The fireworks are full and it is very lively.

Huajiao asked for a private room, ordered four dishes, and said to Feng and Xu You: "Let's eat first, it's useless to worry." ”

Having said that, none of the three had much appetite.

After a few bites, I put the chopsticks down.

At the time of checkout, the pepper explained the intention, and the shopkeeper was busy saying: "Wait a minute, the villain will go and invite the owner to come over." ”
