Chapter 146: Red Rope Beads
Li Zhu was a little anxious.
Xia Wanrou could see it.
I have to provoke Li Zhu again.
Xia Wanrou faintly felt that she had grasped a line.
Without waiting for Mu Siyan to come back, she first sent someone to find Mu Qi, and then ordered: "You keep an eye on it for the past few days, sort out the interpersonal relationships of the people in our house, and then quietly hand it over to me." ”
"Mother, how deep is the reasoning?" Mu Qi asked.
The shallower ones are just the relatives and friends of everyone in the house, and the deeper ones will record how many words the food seller said to whoever was in the house.
"The deeper the better, but keep in mind that you can't startle the snake." Xia Wanrou said.
Li Zhu has combed himself for many years, and he has never gone out after marrying Li Yushi. With her ability, she may not be able to put her eyeliner too close to the Langwang Mansion, and she can't just guess the movement of the mansion based on clues.
"Yes." Mu Qi agreed, "Niangniang, just rest assured, your subordinates will definitely do what Niangniang explained." ”
He was about to take his leave and leave.
Xia Wanrou saw a red rope looming on Mu Qi's waist, and felt a little familiar, so she hurriedly stopped the person and asked, "What is that?" ”
"This?" Mu Qi stretched out his hand and pulled out the red rope, it was a tortoiseshell-colored bead, which looked weird, "Back then, the subordinate father and mother sold the subordinates, and the subordinates were cleaned up and down, only this bead remained, and I don't know how to keep it." ”
Xia Wanrou had seen this bead, which she had seen on Mu Siyan in her previous life. When Mu Siyan didn't have a good temper at that time, he occasionally quieted down and took this bead into a trance. Although the beads are ugly, the string stringing the beads is red, and it always brings some charm, at that time, Xia Wanrou thought that Mu Siyan had taken a fancy to a noble girl and wanted to marry into the door.
Who would have thought that this bead that looked a little charming turned out to be Mu Qi's!
At that time, Mu Qi was already dead.
So Mu Siyan kept the beads by his side to remember Mu Qi? No, it can't be, Mu Siyan is not such a slimy person, he keeps the beads with him, unless the beads are of any special use.
"I haven't seen you wearing it before." Xia Wanrou said to Mu Qi.
Mu Qi smiled: "When I was young, I was ignorant, and I resented them for selling their subordinates to others, so I discarded the beads early. A few days ago, I packed up the cage and found it in a corner of the cage. The devil sent the gods, and put them on his body. ”
"It's not about remembering anything, it's just that I think it's something special." Mu Qi explained.
"It's really something special." Xia Wanrou smiled, "Go out, and I'll ask the prince to reward you with a better jade pendant." ”
"Thank you, Princess." Mu Qi hesitated slightly, took the initiative to untie the red rope, put it on the table in front of Xia Wanrou, and said, "The beads will be given to Niangniang to play with, and I hope Niangniang will not dislike it." ”
He was willing to give, Xia Wanrou thought about it, and did not refuse.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll return it to you in a few days, and I won't lose it." She said to Mu Qi with a serious expression.
After Mu Qi left, Xia Wanrou took the beads to her eyes and took a closer look.
Holding the bead in her hand, she realized that the tortoiseshell-colored bead looked shiny, but the texture was like granite, and there was no taste other than a hint of sandalwood. Even the red rope is made with a bat knot, which is very common. From the beads to the rope, there was no difference from what he had seen in Mu Siyan's hands in the previous life, except that the rope looked newer.
It's the same rope, the same bead.
Xia Wanrou couldn't see that there was anything special about it, so that Mu Siyan could take it with her at any time in her previous life.
Could it be related to Mu Qi's death?
Xia Wanrou's heart jumped, and then she quickly shook her head, Mu Qi's martial arts are also considered masters in the dark guard, how can a mere bead threaten his life and death!
Wait for Mu Siyan to come back and ask.
Xia Wanrou thought so.
"Niangniang, it's already dark, do you hold the lamp?" Qingya entered the conservatory and asked softly.
Her eyes fell on the red rope exposed by Xia Wanrou's fingers, and she was a little surprised.
"Don't hold the lights anymore." Xia Wanrou said, "Let's go to the kitchen, I want to eat fish head today." ”
Mu Siyan likes to eat the noodles she makes, and she likes to eat fish herself, so she decided to make a chopped pepper fish head herself and wait for His Royal Highness King Lang to come back.
Qingya said with a smile: "Niangniang is in the mood to cook today, did she encounter anything good?" ”
"Not really." Xia Wanrou shook her head, pursed her lips and smiled, "I'm just hungry." ”
There is a Yellow River carp in the kitchen, which is very large, and the head of the fish alone weighs two or three catties. After arriving at the small kitchen, they explained their intentions, and the cooks gave up the position of the stove without saying a word.
In order to be able to eat his little wife's craftsmanship from time to time, Mu Siyan had already instructed the people in the kitchen not to stop the princess once she wanted to cook.
Xia Wanrou asked the chef to cook the fish head, and put cooking wine, sesame oil, pepper powder, perilla, ginger and garlic, dogwood, soy sauce and other seasonings to marinate the fish head. Then the dough that the kitchen plans to send to tomorrow morning to make buns is pulled out of a large lump, kneaded and pounded vigorously, and finally pressed into thin sheets, aligned with a kitchen knife and cut a few knives, and the strong and refreshing hand-rolled dough is ready.
At this time, the boiling water in the firewood hot pot has been boiled, and the hand-rolled noodles are put down for a few moments, and then quickly fished out, passed through in ice water, and then evenly spread on the bottom of the large plate. Then the marinated fish head is placed on top of the noodles, and finally the green and red peppers are spread on the fish head in a thick layer and put into the steamer.
Xia Wanrou whispered to Qing Ya: "You also like to eat noodles, I'll quietly leave you a bowl of noodles later." ”
If you don't keep it, Xia Wanrou doesn't like to eat noodles, Mu Siyan must have eaten all the noodles by herself, even if she eats it, she won't waste a little.
Qing Ya looked a little uneasy: "The slave is a maid, how can she grab food from the prince." ”
"I did it left and right, what's this." Summer evening smiled softly.
Qingya thought about it, but shook her head and refused: "The prince has been working hard outside for a day, the prince likes to eat Niangniang's noodles very much, and the slave doesn't compete with the prince for food, so let him ...... Eat more. ”
"Okay." Xia Wanrou didn't care much, "When he turns around, he's not at home, I'll make it for you to eat." ”
"Who's not at home? Who is it for? ”
A low, familiar voice came from the doorway.
Looking back, it was His Royal Highness King Lang, he should have just arrived home, and he hadn't even changed his clothes.
"You're back." Xia Wanrou said with a smile, "Go and change your clothes, you can have dinner after changing, and make your favorite noodles." ”
"That's great. ”
Then I went to change my clothes, but as soon as I turned around, the expression on my face became stiff.
