Chapter 85: Human and Physical Evidence
"The troops that have arrived in the town cannot be moved now, and we have to wait until the dam is repaired." Feng Nansang comforted Lu Wanwan and let her stabilize her mood first.
"I don't have martial arts, I can't go with you, if there is only Sister Wanwan alone, I and the third brother will not rest assured." Feng Nanqi blamed herself a little for dragging them down, if she hadn't followed, she wouldn't have let her third brother be in such a dilemma.
"Can't you just tear your face?" Lu Wanwan, who calmed down a little, was still very impulsive.
"No, we don't have enough evidence." Feng Nansang, who is still able to maintain his sanity, calmed down and thought about how to pull out Zhu Qi's tail while supporting General Lu.
"Wait a minute, Zhu Qi must be watching us now, don't act rashly for the time being. Before the crows have collected enough information, we will spend it with them, General Lu has a flying eagle there, and there will be no problem for the time being. ”
There is a knife on the head of the word ninja, and the patience is temporarily calm, and sooner or later there will be a day when it will break out.
So the two sides tacitly waited until the dam repair was completed, and Zhu Qi finally couldn't hold it back.
"Now the dam has finally been repaired, and the county has returned to new business. Before leaving, I invite you to have a meal as a farewell gift for the gratitude of the people of the county. Zhu Qi smiled, if it weren't for Feng Nanqi, they would have investigated his character a long time ago, otherwise they would have been deceived again.
At this time, the crow just happened to rush back.
"Back to the little princess, I have found someone who is willing to speak." He whispered in Feng Nanqi's ear.
Zhu Qi, who was on the side, sensed that something was wrong, so he asked: "I remember that the person who followed Her Royal Highness the princess first was not this little brother, was it a replacement?" ”
"You remember who Her Royal Highness is following her, why, do you want to be the next person to follow the princess?"
may be because Lu Wanwan is worried about her father, so her tone is inevitably prone to conflict.
"The little one is terrified, it's not an honor to be able to serve the villain by the princess's side, but the villain can only embroider some fists and legs, and I'm afraid he won't be able to take on the heavy responsibility of protecting the princess."
Zhu Qi hurriedly retreated, where was he willing to follow a little girl? It's better to continue to be this county magistrate more comfortable.
"Even if you have real kung fu, I don't plan to accept you, and you're embarrassed to take it seriously if you laugh with you, it's really interesting." Feng Nanqi made up for it, and didn't give Zhu Qi the slightest step down.
"It's really a little abrupt, please forgive me, princess."
Zhu Qi's face was red and white for a while, but it was not easy to attack because of his face.
"It's okay, is there anything else to do with Zhu County's order? If only one thing is to eat, you can leave. Feng Nansang issued an eviction order, which made Zhu Qi have to leave if he didn't want to go.
"The little one quits." Zhu Qi retreated unwillingly.
Feng Nansang carefully checked the surroundings and closed the door when he made sure that there was no one.
"Crow, are you sure that person can be witnessed? It won't be a problem, right? ”
After the door was closed, Feng Nanqi couldn't wait to ask, now that he had the physical evidence in Shui San's hand, he was still short of this witness to deal with Zhu Qi.
"I've looked into it, and it's a survivor of the flood. He didn't die in the flood at the time, but was saved by other survivors. He also said that the survivors who were with him also agreed to expose Mr. Zhu's actions in one fell swoop. The crow added, "Several of them are witnesses who saw Zhu Qi blow up the embankment." ”
He kept his voice low, and Feng Nanqi had to get very close to hear it clearly.
She knew that this was still for the sake of the wall, and Zhu Qi would definitely not leave so simply.
She turned her head to indicate that there was no problem, and everyone else nodded.
"Then Qiqi, you have a good rest first, then I will go back with Wanwan first." Feng Nansang's voice was a little louder, and then several people looked out the door.
Although I couldn't see it clearly, I could still make out the outline of a person there in a daze.
"Okay, be careful, be careful that someone digs the foot of the wall in the middle of the night." Feng Nanqi said as he wrote on the table.
"What's going on with digging the foot of the wall?" Lu Wanwan asked, before Feng Nanqi finished writing, they had to attract the attention of people outside the door.
"Dig the foot of the wall, even if someone opens a small hole outside the window in the middle of the night or something, and then puts incense in your room or something."
When he finished saying this, Zhu Qi, who was hiding at the door, was stunned for a moment, yes, he originally planned to do this.
It seems that there is only one way to do it.
At this time, Feng Nanqi had also written on the table, "Witnesses, safety." A few words.
The others nodded and continued.
"This kind of thing is something that only a nasty ruffian would do, right?" Lu Wanwan said with a smile, and her voice just made Zhu Qi outside the door listen to it.
"This kind of thing can't be said, there are many people in the county town with a human face and a beast's heart, and I don't know if this disaster is dead." Feng Nanqi wrote some words on the table again, and Zhu Qi's face turned red and white when he heard it.
No matter how this sounds, it sounds like it was said to him, is it difficult to be discovered?
"No, haven't you heard such a saying? Well, the life is not long, and the scourge will last for a thousand years. Feng Nansang couldn't help but interject after hearing this, which made Zhu Qi outside the door more and more embarrassed.
"Who knows? But I've also heard that this kind of person especially likes to lie outside the door and eavesdrop, do you think we have one outside the door? ”
Feng Nanqi, who finished writing the last few words, actually went to open the door, but there was no one outside the door.
She closed the door and smiled, "It seems that the eavesdroppers have good hearing." ”
The other two people also smiled and left after reading the words.
...
The next day, everyone who had packed their bags gathered.
There are some home-style stir-fry on the table, but the most attractive part of Feng Nanqi is the pot of cauliflower rice.
"The little princess is really a good eye, although this plate of cauliflower rice is not a delicacies of the mountains and seas, but it is a special snack for us here.
This cauliflower rice is made by shaving the cauliflower into rice grains and then dicing the other side dishes.
Stir-fry the bacon with minced garlic and onion in oil, then add the cauliflower and some of our homemade seasonings for the side dishes.
The cauliflower is very cooked, after it is cooked, add the egg wash to the rice, fry for a while and continue to stir-fry, then add soy sauce and stir-fry out of the pan.
It's the most common dish we eat here. ”
Zhu Qi saw Feng Nanqi's eyes staring at some of the dishes on the table, so he asked the chef on the side to start introducing them.
"This second dish is ordinary egg dried tofu, which is slightly sautéed for a while before cooking, and then a layer of egg liquid is coated on top of the dried tofu, and it is out of the pan after the egg is fried.
After that, the side dishes are cooked, and the fried eggs and dried beans are stir-fried together, and finally out of the pan.
Because the eggs in the second pot are easy to lack a sense of gap, but the chopped pepper sauce I made here can keep the eggs tender and tender. ”
Feng Nanqi was defenseless in front of the food, she knew that it would be dangerous to eat it, but she still tasted it.
However, Feng Nanqi, who tasted it once, shook his head, the salty and spicy chopped pepper sauce can well avoid the burnt aroma of eggs, but if you want to taste it, it will inevitably make the outer layer still easy to lack a sense of gap.
"Add chopped pepper sauce to make the dried tofu very flavorful, but the next time you beat the eggs, you can add some cold water, so that the eggs are easier to keep fresh."
She put down her chopsticks and said to the cook.
I have eaten together for several years on the edge of Feng Nanlu, and I still have some research on some of the food.
After Feng Nanqi finished speaking, the chef thought for a moment and laughed heroically.
"It's true, this cooking method is the first time I've tried it today, so I haven't noticed some of it, thank you little princess for reminding me."
Then he began to introduce the third dish: "The third dish was the abalone with shiitake mushrooms, and because the town had just recovered, I couldn't buy some precious seafood. I'm afraid you won't get used to the stir-fry here, so the abalone in this dish is replaced by shiitake mushrooms, but the taste is almost the same as the real abalone.
The fourth course is a relatively simple scallion pork liver, which the town's butcher just killed today.
The fifth course is chicken stewed with mushrooms, because no fresh mushrooms were picked, so some dried mushrooms could only be used instead, although the taste of fresh mushrooms was missing, but the dried mushrooms absorbed the aroma of chicken broth.
The chicken is the most tender three-yellow chicken, and some soybeans and papaya are added to the stew. ”
The little girl couldn't help but glance at the chef who was eating with all the color and fragrance in front of her, the chef's love for food was all reflected in these foods, and if he really wanted to poison it, it was definitely not what he did.
Lu Wanwan and Feng Nansang glanced at each other, and silently ate a small bite of food under the expectation of the chef and Zhu Qi.
It is indeed expected to be delicious, but this meal is a weasel New Year's greeting to the chicken, and it must not be good.
After eating the last dish of chicken stewed mushrooms, Feng Nanqi solemnly put down his chopsticks and spoke to the smiling chef on the side.
"What's your name?"
"The villain's surname is single, and the single name is in the word." The chef said, Feng Nanqi tilted his head, "Shan Yu, this surname is quite rare." ”
"Yes, it's just me and my daughter in town." When mentioning his daughter, Shan Yu's eyes reveal a love that is deeper than cooking.
"Your daughter?" Feng Nanqi asked subconsciously, and then he saw the proud smile on the chef's face.
"My daughter is about the same age as the little princess, she is a very well-behaved child, and she has a stronger love for food than I do."
Feng Nanqi thought for a moment, and then asked, "Is there anyone else in the family?" What about your wife? ”
At this time, Shan Yu had a little more affection in his eyes: "My wife died in childbirth when she gave birth to Rourou. ”
Feng Nanqi looked overwhelmed by this sudden sadness, "Sorry to bring up your sadness, but I have a request. ”
Feng Nansang and Lu Wanwan were puzzled by her sudden whim, but they didn't stop her.
"Would you like to go back to Arashiki with me?" She said, "Would you like to be the royal chef of the palace?" I can provide better living conditions for your father and daughter. ”
She admires Shan Yu's dedication to food, whether it is in his dishes or in other aspects, it is reflected in the confidence.
Compared to this small place, Shan Yu is more suitable for development in a larger place, and if he goes to Arashi, his cooking skills can be more profound.
But in the face of such tempting conditions, he chose to refuse.
"I'm sorry little princess, I don't care how delicious the food is, I'm just a civilian. It's a small town, but it carries everything I have, and no matter what happens in the future, I still choose to stay here. ”
The chef had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, but Lu Wanwan asked rhetorically: "Then don't you want to provide better conditions for your daughter's growth?" ”
"Parents all over the world want their children to grow up well. Rourou is still too young now, and I want her to remember that this is her home rather than going to a strange place.
My cooking skills have been passed down from generation to generation, and only by being born and raised here can I truly understand this sentence. ”
For this, Feng Nanqi asked herself not as much as he thought, but she couldn't help but ask more: "What if your daughter is different from what you think?" ”
At this time, Shan Yu was obviously stunned for a moment, and then replied: "If Rourou chooses to leave, then I naturally won't stop her." But she's still young, and when she can really be responsible for herself, all I can do at that time is to respect her choice. ”
Feng Nanqi nodded a little regretfully and didn't continue to say anything, but still asked his daughter's name.
"My daughter, called Shan Sirou."
may be because the beloved wife has the word "soft" in her name, so she will give this name to this daughter whose wife desperately wants to protect.
The little girl silently wrote down the name in her heart and tasted the food unceremoniously.
The meal was swept away in the end, but it was Feng Nanqi who ate the most, and Lu Wanwan and Feng Nansang tentatively ate two bites for the sake of prudence.
Before eating, they all had a temporary antidote made by the imperial doctor in case they needed it.
"This last dish is an after-dinner dessert, an orange cake.
The orange cake is made with the juice squeezed from the oranges, with cornstarch and caster sugar boiled in a pot, and some corn oil is added to shape it, because it is winter, so this orange cake is formed very quickly. ”
As soon as Shan Yu finished speaking, the attendant brought the orange cake.
The orange cake is sprinkled with a thin layer of sesame seeds, and the orange cake is specially shaped for the sake of beauty.
As soon as Feng Nanqi took a bite of the pastry, Zhu Qi fell off the chair in horror.
"Why are you here?" As if he had seen a ghost, he saw the squire hurriedly retreating.
The attendant raised his face to look at him, but did not speak.
Feng Nanqi, who was on the side, felt the thick fragrance of oranges in his mouth, and his voice was sarcastic: "What's wrong?" Aren't you old friends? Why did you see this expression? ”
Zhu Qi, who reacted, swallowed his saliva and said, "No, I don't know him." ”
The attendant who heard this sentence looked at him faintly and spoke: "Zhu Qi, you despicable and shameless villain. ”
"You, you, don't talk nonsense! I don't even know you! Zhu Qi watched the attendant approach step by step, and he could only crawl into the corner to hide.
"You despicable and shameless villain, I worked hard for you, and I worked hard for you, but you crossed the river and demolished the bridge."
The attendant looked at him with resentment in his eyes, eager to cut him with a thousand knives.
"Okay, tell me what's going on. With us here, there is revenge, there is revenge. ”
