Chapter 89: The Little Tea Shop Leaves a Message to Reveal a Big Event
Lin Longfeng only stayed for one night, got up in the morning, and left in a hurry. It just so happened that the private school was closed, and no one noticed him.
Mr. Wu read the letter to Hu Yanjin, and it was almost the same as what Lin Longfeng said, only a few more words, asking him to do more and say less in the officialdom, and say more for the people and less for the people.
"This time, let you let go of your hands in Yingtianfu to do it, that's because the one in Qionglong Mountain believes in his heart that it is Yingtian, and Shuntian is just a walker. There are not many things in Yingtian Yamen, just so that you and Long Feng have time to build a relationship.
You and Hua Qiao, or find an opportunity to talk to your father, he is a son like you, and he will not ignore your happiness and insist that you wait until the source is cleared. Long Feng's father left early, and he is a solid-eyed person, so you can persuade him more. ”
The older Mr. Wu gets, the more verbose he becomes, and Hu Yanjin has to respond one by one.
Even if Hu Yanjin didn't want to leave, since he received the twenty-four stone rice from the imperial court, he would have to go to the Yingtianfu Yamen to work and perform his duties. The day before leaving, Shi Niang called him to his home for dinner, and now this prospective son-in-law, the more she looks at it, the more she likes it.
"Ah Jin, this is your favorite salted duck, if you go to Yingtianfu, you won't be able to eat the dishes made by your master." Yun Niang enthusiastically gave Huyan Jin cloth vegetables, Hua Rong's eyes were sharp, and when she saw A-Niang clipping a duck wing, she quickly grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth:
"You can eat anything, but you can't eat wings, if you eat wings, Brother Huyan will fly, and my sister won't cry to death?"
Liu Yunniang slapped him and said, "You often eat chicken legs, but I don't see you running fast?" ”
Hu Yanjin hurriedly said: "I am a boiled duck, and I can't fly." ”
Hua Qiao couldn't help but laugh: "Who said that he was a boiled duck?" Fool! ”
"Girls, you can't scold." Hua Youcai glanced at Hua Qiao and corrected.
"I'm praising him......
Hu Yanjin was at the master's house and finished his meal with tears in his eyes. Hua Qiao changed into men's clothes and dragged him shopping.
The streets are more lively in the afternoon.
The hawkers who came out early in the morning all wanted to sell out and go home early, and the shouts came and went. a businessman drinking tea and talking about things; Wander the streets and watch people fight. chickens, juggling students; The little daughter-in-law, who had a little spare time to buy before dinner, appeared on the street.
Hua buckwheat walked around the east and west, but Hu Yanjin was relaxed, just staring at the buckwheat. After going around for most of the circle, Hua Qiao felt tired, and the two sat down in a spacious tea shop and waited for Xiao Er to come to serve tea.
Suddenly, I heard someone at the table next to me saying, "...... Do you think this thing is evil? Real people and real things, Tong Su is not bullied, if there is a fake, the sky thunders! ”
"According to what you say, one will go missing in a day or two, so isn't it inexplicably missing five or six people? It's been so many days, and the people from the Yingtianfu Yamen don't care? ”
"So what's the matter? I can't find it. You don't feel it in Baoying, but we feel it obviously in Yingtian, and Yingtianfu's status is now what it used to be. I thought that if he moved away, the people would live more comfortably, but I didn't expect that there would be no more, and there would be more thieves! ”
He took a sip of tea and continued: "Now the management is not as strict as before, although it is convenient for us, but it is convenient for thieves." This time, there have been missing people for half a month, and I don't know if there is a demon? I tell you, the palace is haunted! ”
"Don't talk about heaven, don't talk about heaven. Fortunately, it's in Baoying, if it's in Jingshi, you can't sit in the tea shop so comfortably, it's time to be invited to tea by Jinyiwei......"
Just as they could listen energetically, they stopped talking, and Hua Qiao and Huyan Jin looked at each other. When Xiao Er came over to pour tea, Hua Qiao hurriedly asked, "Little Second Brother, have you heard what those guests said just now?" ”
The little second brother smiled: "Look at what you asked, what is the tea shop?" Specializing in spreading gossip and focusing on spreading rumors! Our small shop has a message board, which is to write a message for tea customers, there is everything on it, you will look for it carefully, I won't go into details, chat with tea customers more than three and a half sentences, but you have to deduct wages. ”
"Three and a half sentences?" Hu Yanjin was a little curious about this regulation.
The little second brother smiled embarrassedly: "There must be half a sentence to say hello......"
"Where's the message board?" Flower buckwheat also asked.
They looked at the little second brother's hand, and sure enough, there was a wooden board on the side of the stairs leading to the second floor on the first floor, with a lot of paper pasted on it, a small table below, and a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone neatly placed.
I couldn't take care of the buckwheat tea anymore, so I picked up Hu Yanjin and walked to the message board.
The paper with the message written on it was neatly stained on the wooden board with glutinous rice. There are those who sing songs, there are those who moan, there are insinuations, and there are those who invite dates...... Look all the way over.,Hey.,There's really someone looking for someone.,And it's two new posts!
The time of the message is one day apart, except for the name of the person who is searching, the content is almost the same. One is looking for a son, and the missing is a twelve-year-old boy who disappeared from the school and was lost in the east of the city.
One is looking for his father, and the missing is a 36-year-old porcelain burner, who went to work in the porcelain kiln in the morning and did not come back, and was lost in the south of the city.
Except that they are both men and their families are all in Yingtian, there is no similarity in the others, and the two cases do not seem to be related. Judging from the time, the middle-aged man seems to be at the top of the list of disappearances.
These two families are anxious, and after looking for Yingtianfu, it will expand to the entire Nanzhili search. Even the more remote Baoying did not let go, Xu was given advice, and came to this tea shop to leave a message.
It's really true. The buckwheat and Huyan brocade looked at each other.
"Senior brother, who did you say kidnapped them?" Hua Qiao was puzzled: "Kidnapping a child, it can also be said that it is sold for money, a middle-aged uncle, what is the use of kidnapping?" The family has no money, and extortion is not like it. ”
Hu Yanjin couldn't think of it, so he had to say: "I'm going to Yingtianfu tomorrow, I'll pay attention to this matter, and I'll tell you what news there is." ”
The James Mansion is not a judicial department, but an agency that assists the crown prince and the crown prince in exercising power, although he cannot directly intervene in the case, but if it encounters a case related to the management duties of the prince and the crown grandson, they can also receive orders to directly intervene.
Knowing this, the two discussed while walking, and before they knew it, they arrived at the door of the house. Hua Qiao said regretfully: "Senior brother, it's a pity that I can't go to Yingtianfu with you tomorrow, or I can go to Nandu with you." ”
Hu Yanjin cried and laughed: "You don't want to go to Nandu with me, you want to investigate the case, right?" Now I can't see anyone alive or dead, and I don't need your little trick. ”
"Hey, senior brother, did you say you would search the whole city? A few big living people, it's not easy to hide, right? "The buckwheat is still entangled.
Suddenly, Mr. Wu's little bookkeeper ran over panting and said:
"Senior brother, I've finally found you! Someone from the James Mansion is here, and it's in the academy. Go back! ”
