Chapter 15 Children's Debts
Master Tao and his staff discussed how to act in the study.
The housekeeper hurriedly came in, "My lord, this is someone sent by Bo Fu just now." ”
Master Tao picked up the envelope, "Bo Mansion? ”
When I took it out, it was a token engraved with the word "Lin". Look at the letter again, it is stated that it was found on that group of people that night.
Tao Shen looked at the token, his brows furrowed.
A staff member stepped forward: "My lord, in this way, this Bo Gongzi is not friend or foe." ”
The remaining one also stepped forward and said, "My lord, there must be someone behind the scenes in this matter of the White Dragon Temple. Beware of the people behind the scenes, one plan will not succeed in the second plan. ”
Master Tao nodded: "In this case, do the two gentlemen have a plan?" ”
One of the old men thought slightly: "My lord, this Lin surname, in this Jiangnan region, the more famous, one is the richest man in Yangzhou - Jin Operator Lin Sheng, since ancient times, the people do not fight with officials, and this Lin Mansion and Tao Mansion have always been friends, so naturally it will not be him." The only one left is Lin Sima, but Sima has always managed the military administration, how can he meddle in the internal affairs of Yangzhou? ”
Another echoed: "My lord, this really needs to be thought about, what is it for?" It's just that now, I think it's imperative to find out about the embankment. What exactly causes the flooding. ”
Lord Tao looked at the two staff members and fell into deep thought, and Songzhu came to urge him outside the door again, and Lord Tao spoke: "Let's go back and rest first." We'll talk about it again tomorrow. ”
The two gentlemen said goodbye one after another, and when they went out, the old staff member said to the young man: "Boy, there is a new wine from Hu Niangzi's house at the entrance of the alley, do you want to try it together." ”
The young man waved his hand again and again, "No, no, Tao Lao, I don't have your good amount of wine." ”
Tao Lao smiled and shook his fan and went out of the house.
Songzhu entered the door, but Master Tao did not get up.
"Shochiku, is there any movement in the shop?"
Songzhu's expression was solemn: "Master, there is no movement in the shop, but I know that Gongzi is injured, and many medicinal materials have been collected in the medical hall, ask Master, when can I send it in?"
Master Tao shook his head: "Let them calm down for a while, and talk about it after this time." Did they find out who it was? ”
Songzhu shook his head guiltily: "Nanling is too small, after retreating, the power has shrunk a lot, and they only know that Nanling has suffered a disaster, but they didn't expect it to be used by people with intentions." ”
Master Tao was not too disappointed, and then spoke: "Let them move quietly, so that no one notices." ”
Songzhu nodded, looked at Lord Tao and said, "However, last time, you let us investigate Bo Mansion." Tan Ran received the portrait of Bo Gongzi and sent the news back that it was the grandson of Bo Taifu, who had been studying with Bo Taifu before, and the news from Bo Mansion was indeed for his sister to come to Yangzhou. But after he entered Yangzhou, he kept staring at the street. The old men suspected that he was the one who was in Jinling. ”
Master Tao frowned: "It's actually the old man Bo Jian, no wonder he looks stupid, these people in Bo Mansion were all killed by the way of Confucius." If it's really him, a gentleman who does a little kid, don't worry. ”
Master Tao stood up and said the last task: "Send someone to keep an eye on the two staff members in my mansion, and I don't know when there will be something to eat in and out of this mansion." ”
"Yes." Shochiku arched his hand.
Master Tao stretched his sleeves, "Let's go, go back to the backyard to eat." ”
Songzhu quietly followed behind Master Tao again.
For dinner, Mrs. Tao made a large table of lotus seeds, lotus leaves, and rice.
Master Tao drank the lotus root soup, looked at the pond fish thief and looked at it, thinking that it must have been suggested by the good girl and Mrs. Tao.
Mrs. Tao took a few sips and said, "I don't know when Yi Yin will wake up." ”
Chi Yu looked at his mother, his eyebrows were slightly worried, and he said: "Mother, the doctor said that my brother has stabilized now, as long as the divine doctor comes to see and find out the cause of the coma, it will be fine." Wen, my cousin can definitely bring back the miracle doctor. ”
Master Tao also continued: "Ah Xin, don't worry too much, if you wake up and see that you have lost weight again, you may be so uncomfortable." "Maybe you'll blame me", Master Tao thought silently in his heart, but he didn't say it.
Who is Mrs. Tao? With a glance from Lord Tao, Mrs. Tao knew what Lord Tao was planning.
I really couldn't help it, Mrs. Tao glanced at Master Tao: "It's not serious, hurry up and eat." ”
Master Tao hurriedly drank a few more sips, and Chiyu quietly laughed.
"Brother, you have to wake up early, if you don't wake up, you won't be able to drink this year's lotus root soup."
Master Tao sandwiched a lotus leaf chicken for the pond fish.
This lotus leaf chicken first deepens the whole chicken until it is crispy, and then stir-fried the green onions, ginger and garlic with oil, and various seasonings, put it into the casserole together with the whole chicken, add the marinade packet, and boil. Finally, the lotus leaves are scalded with boiling water, spread out in a baking basin, and the chicken is thickened with marinade and wrapped in lotus leaves. Sprinkle some chopped green onions, coriander, pour hot oil, sprinkle sesame seeds, eat into the mouth, lotus leaf fragrant, sesame fragrant meat fragrant mixed together, is a favorite dish of pond fish.
Master Tao looked at the fragrant food of the pond fish, and asked with a smile: "Good girl, Bo Mansion has sent medicinal materials over several times, although our Mansion is not bad for this thing, but it always owes favors, not to mention, Bo Gongzi also saved you." ”
Mrs. Tao glanced at her husband in surprise and waited for things to develop.
Chi Yu paused slightly, took another piece of meat, and pretended not to care and said, "Yes, I don't know if Sister Deyin was scared." Bo, Bo Gongzi is very good. ”
Master Tao said again: "In that case, Chi Yu, do you think it's better for us to return the gift, or do you want to invite them to come and have a look?" ”
The pond fish buried its head in eating meat, and Mrs. Tao glared at Master Tao. I heard Chiyu say: "My brother hasn't woken up yet, let's come to the door when my brother wakes up." As for the return gift, I was ready for a long time. ”
Master Tao didn't speak, and Mrs. Tao also looked at the pond fish, "The little girl who has never been impatient to take care of human relations is so positive." ”
Mrs. Tao glared at Master Tao viciously, and looked at the pond fish angrily: "Don't poke it, your rice is going to be poked." You're a boudoir woman, what kind of gift do you prepare for a man? ”
Chiyu reflected at this time, and looked at his father: "Dad! Father! ”
Master Tao sandwiched another piece of fish to the pond fish, "Eh~ good girl, eat quickly, your mother cooked it herself." ”
The lanterns of Tao Mansion are hung at night.
In the main room, on the carved bed, Lord Tao was hugging Mrs. Tao.
Mrs. Tao punched Mrs. Tao in the chest, and Lord Tao snorted: "Oh, I said Madam, for the husband is old, if you continue to fight like this, I am afraid that I will not die young." ”
Mrs. Tao got up, "You just pretend!" You say, what are you doing at night? ”
Master Tao looked at Madame: "Madam, I'm just looking at the pond fish who have been in a state of mind lately, so I just asked." ”
Mrs. Tao pursed her lips: "What kind of person is this Bo Suizhi?" ”
Master Tao looked at his wife's rare complaining appearance: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely not let the pond fish suffer." ”
"You have a lot of ideas, how old a person." Mrs. Tao muttered and fell asleep leaning on her husband.
"Children are debts." Master Tao looked at the moonlight and sighed.
In another place, in the middle of the night, someone had a secret talk.
"The guy in the prison is useless, deal with it."
Someone nodded yes, and the night was calm again.
"Tao Shen, I hope you have good luck all the time."
