Chapter 14: Theft
After a short time, several people returned to the ruined temple. Duan Yunfei put down the purchased materials one by one, with a bit of inquiry on his face, "Aren't you making zongzi, how could you suddenly buy these things?" ”
His gaze swept over those materials one by one, and a little doubt appeared in Duan Yunfei's eyes.
Egg yolks, lean meat, red dates...... All kinds of ingredients were packed up by Li Xueyan one by one and put them in the newly bought bamboo basket.
When Li Xueyan heard this, she didn't hide her secrets, and replied softly: "I plan to make these into zongzi." Egg yolk filling, red date stuffing zongzi, are also very delicious. ”
Hearing this, Duan Yunfei nodded clearly. It seems that there is more than one kind of red bean filling for zongzi. It's just that the zongzi thing is very novel, and I have asked myself to go south and north for so many years, but I have never heard of this kind of food.
So, Duan Yunfei adhered to the fine tradition of asking if he didn't understand, and asked: "I don't know where this zongzi is eaten, I have never heard of it before. ”
Hearing this, Li Xueyan raised her voice and said, "You naturally haven't heard of it before, but I came up with this thing myself, and I definitely didn't have it before." Saying that, Li Xueyan couldn't help but muttered in her heart, the little woman was ashamed to borrow it, and hoped that the working people who invented zongzi should not care! Don't care!
Duan Yunfei looked at Li Xueyan's expression, although he was a little suspicious in his heart, but he didn't say anything, but gently touched Li Xiaonuan's head and said softly: "Xiaonuan, daddy will go first." Xiao Nuan is obedient. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Nuan couldn't help but pull Duan Yunfei's sleeve a little anxiously, "When will Daddy come to see Xiao Nuan and his mother again?" ”
The corners of Duan Yunfei's mouth hooked up a smile, "Soon." ”
On the second day, before dawn, Li Xueyan got up and wanted to wrap the zongzi and cook them, so that they could be sold in the market after dawn.
However, when Li Xueyan came to the pot erected at the gate of the broken temple, she couldn't help but be a little shocked! The ingredients that were carefully processed by Li Xueyan yesterday and some wrapped zongzi are now all gone! Now the pot is empty, and there is nothing left!
Li Xueyan was instantly shocked when she saw this! My rice dumplings!
"What's the matter, mother, what's going on?" Li Xiaonuan ran out without putting on her shoes, rubbing her eyes as she ran, her face full of worry. "Ah, where are our rice dumplings?!"
Li Xueyan knew that children needed enough sleep more than adults, so she didn't wake up Li Xiaonuan when she got up, maybe she was too surprised just now and accidentally screamed, which woke up the child.
Li Xueyan habitually wanted to use a sentence of "It's okay" or "don't worry" to perfunctory the past, but when she saw Li Xiaonuan's expression, she hesitated again.
This child has been through so many things, and if she is not allowed to participate in this matter, it will only make her more worried. After all, one more person has more strength, even if Li Xiaonuan is only three years old.
Li Xueyan looked at Li Xiaonuan, who was rummaging around like a headless fly next to the empty pot, and couldn't help but smile helplessly, called her in front of her, squatted down and said, "Don't look for it, Xiao Nuan, our zongzi was stolen." ”
Li Xiaonuan's eyes widened and said in disbelief: "Someone stole our zongzi?" Who is it? ”
"I don't know my mother, but ......" Li Xueyan's hand stroked the top of Li Xiaonuan's head without stubble, and her eyes turned to the direction of her so-called home, "No matter who stole it, I will definitely find out the person!" ”
Li Xiaonuan also raised her pink little fist, "Hmm! Be sure to find the people who stole and let the people in the government arrest them! ”
"Okay, let's go now."
"Good!"
"But mother, we don't know who stole the zongzi, where to find it......"
"You just follow your mother and wait to see the show." Li Xueyan led Li Xiaonuan, one tall and one short, leaving from the broken temple, holding small hands with big hands, and walking towards the town in the gradually clear morning light.
"Oh......" Li Xiaonuan thought thoughtfully.
There must be a reason for everything, zongzi can't disappear for no reason, Li Xueyan's first target is Zhang Qiaoqiao.
The person who knew that she lived in this broken temple, in Li Xueyan's cognition, was only Duan Yunfei. But with his toes, could he also think that Duan Yunfei might steal her things?
Not to mention so many zongzi, with Duan Yunfei's net worth, no one can look down on her money from selling zongzi for a lifetime.
The more Li Xueyan thought about it, the more angry she became, she was stalked. Li Xueyan, the rest of the Li family, has not met her in the past few days, and only Zhang Qiaoqiao has had a conflict with her.
As for whether she can guess the bottom or not, she will know it when she looks at it.
"Yo, isn't this the Li Xueyan who was swept out of the house? What's the matter, this is, with a calm face, as if someone owes you a few hundred taels of silver. Oh no, I almost forgot, where did you get a few hundred taels of silver? The man burst out laughing.
