Chapter 31: Braised Soup
The groom is fine.
The people who watched the excitement told me and Lu Shang.
The bride carried the groom and ran away, presumably going to the hospital.
What just happened? I asked.
It's a long story, but it's better to go into the inn and drink the happy bar.
I heard you right, the grooms have all gone to see Langzhong, and they still drink wedding wine?
Is it really nothing?
The banquet began at noon, and the chef of the inn had already begun to prepare on the fifth watch, and Mo ran back and forth, as if his brother-in-law had been burned by the fire and he didn't know.
I don't care about that anymore, because I want to go into the kitchen.
The kitchen for Qiuyu to cook is separate, and I can only occupy it if I give silver.
I think that the kitchen here can be very unusual, and the extraordinary kitchen can make extraordinary dishes and retain customers.
Wen shopkeeper!
Mo Lai came out of the kitchen door, saw me, looked very happy, and asked me: Would you like to help?
I smiled reservedly: Isn't Shopkeeper Mo worried about me stealing the secret recipe?
Stealing the secret recipe?
I know that every inn has a way of doing business, don't worry, I'm not here to carry it, I'm here to ask for advice and learning.
What are you talking about, shopkeeper Wen, I want to ask you to help me get my sister back.
I'm upset: can't you find people at your inn?
I don't look back.
Hey, shopkeeper Wen, don't go, if you get my sister back, I'll ......
You think I'm going back to my room like this?
Or did you promise him to go to Moya?
Neither.
As you can see, Moya came back with the groom on her back, and the groom was wearing a bridal outfit and the bride was wearing only a middle garment.
Mo Lai was dumbfounded.
Big brother, don't be stunned, and then, I'm tired to death. Mo Lai took it and asked the panting Mo Ya: What happened to Zhang He?
I burned him, he didn't die, found a room for him to rest, changed his clothes, and I got married.
I was stunned.
Why she's so crazy.
Monkey business! If someone dies, you and I will have to go to the county marquis with our heads up!
I wonder what kind of marquis is to set up such a cruel marriage custom.
It's been told that you only got married at the age of twenty-one, and you're still doing this! Today is your marriage, otherwise I ......
Mo Ya moved out of the heavenly father and mother according to the routine, Mo didn't dare to say it, how dare he fight, I think he has never beaten Mo Ya, and Mo Ya has never made him angry since he was a child.
Watching the welcoming team leave, Mo Laiwa cried.
Everyone persuaded him that getting married was a happy event, and he should be happy, of course, some people said that Mo Ya finally got married or something, it was too ugly, so don't listen to it, your eyes still turn to the Qiu Yu room.
Qiu Yu obediently lay on the bed, reading a book.
You see, although Qiu Yu is bent on revenge, he does not forget to study.
Moreover, he looks good when he reads books carefully, and how handsome he grows up, you say.
Qiu Yu closed the book and took out a small medicine bottle from behind him.
You know.
The small medicine bottle was bought by Qiu Yu and Mo Qing when they went out, and inside, it was filled with a poison that could poison a cow, and this poison had the fragrance of braised hooves and the general color of sugar, so it was not easy to find.
You can guess what Qiu Yu wants to do.
That's right, he wanted to poison me.
I, on the other hand, became a chef in the kitchen, because one of the chefs suddenly couldn't come.
Mother.
I was so busy, Qiu Yu suddenly came over, mother, I haven't eaten yet.
Mo Lai: Child, don't disturb your mother, come here, uncle has something to eat.
Qiuyu hugged me: I want my mother to cook food for me.
I had no choice but to let him take a plate of fried green bamboo shoots and two steamed buns and let him go back to his room to eat.
He insisted that I follow him back to the room and let me feed him, and I thought he was still uncomfortable, so he was so coquettish.
Anyway, it won't take long to have a meal, and I'll go back to my room with him.
Mother, you sit, I'll pour you a glass of water.
Xiaoyu, you better eat first, my mother still has to help the shopkeeper.
Is it important for your son or to help outsiders?
His voice and the sound of pouring water.
Of course it's you who matter. But......
Mother, drink water.
It's white water.
Colorless and odorless.
He looked at me and wanted me to drink.
If you don't see the poison he bought, do you think there's something wrong with the water?
And I didn't pay attention to these at all, one is anxious, the other is trust, I don't think he should hate me anymore, and I don't know where I got my confidence.
You may say I'm simple.
I admit it.
But I don't want to wronged a child.
After drinking, let's eat.
Qiu Yu looked at the green bamboo shoots and said, "I want to eat braised hooves."
The braised hooves are still stewed, so let's eat the green bamboo shoots first.
Tearing the steamed buns round and round, Qiu Yu asked me to feed him layer by layer.
I was anxious at first, and then I thought, if I don't come, the wedding banquet will not be held, so I feed it slowly.
He had eaten this meal for about two minutes.
The younger brother born to the three aunts had to chase them outside the house when they were young, and they could eat for half an hour at a meal.
Eat enough, mother, wipe your mouth. Qiu Yu handed me the chin.
You say, what's wrong with Qiuyu?
Of course I couldn't say no, and then let him drink again.
There was still a little green bamboo shoot left on the plate.
Mother, the green bamboo shoots are braised with the flavor of hooves, do you believe it?
I smiled and said: I want to eat braised hooves so much, my mother will see if it is ready, and I will buy it for you.
Mother, this is braised hooves, you taste it.
What you see is a sinister autumn language.
And I only saw a child who was spoiled with me.
So, is this green bamboo shoot poisonous, I didn't leave the room just now, he has no chance, it should be non-toxic.
He insisted that it was braised hooves, and I ate it and said yes, and he agreed to let me go to the kitchen.
But as soon as I went out, you saw that he opened the bottle and controlled it, but there was nothing, and I, my sleeve, were covered with poison.
It turned out that the poison was not eaten, but smelled.
After a busy time, the wedding feast finally ended.
The guys didn't have time to clean up, and new guests came again, wiping the table, moving chairs, because of the wedding banquet, they were all round tables that could seat ten people, and the first floor had to be changed to a small square table.
Mo Lai was commanding on the second floor, he was so tired that he didn't want to say anything, but seeing that the guests were waiting for the top accommodation, it was not hard to work hard.
I've heard some guests say that they've been waiting for almost a day, and some people have to eat here regardless of sitting on a chair.
Shopkeeper Mo, how many inns and restaurants are there in Lizi County?
You two, put it to the west, don't you understand! How many times do you want me to say it? Then he asked me with a smile: What did you say, shopkeeper Wen?
Let me ask you how many inns and restaurants there are in Lizi County.
Big and small, in the city and in the countryside, there are more than 100 families. However, there are only a dozen or so of the real passenger flow, and my inn is recognized as the one with the largest passenger flow.
Why?
I'm not going to tell you.
I'm looking forward to it.
I don't know.
I:......
Also, my peers are enemies, how can he say anything to me about business.
But he went on to say: Honesty in doing business is the truth, no business is not treacherous, this is wisdom, guests are ancestors, this is respect. That's how I opened a tavern into an inn, new and old customers never stopped, of course, they also made trouble, sad, and did business, just like stewed hooves, add more water, burn more fire, boil slowly, and be able to boil it sooner or later, it is important to persevere.
What he said still makes sense, but it's too general. Moreover, the guests are ancestors, which I do not agree with. Our relationship is equal.
You've just opened an inn.
For a year or so, there are still three months not in the inn.
The shopkeeper is not in the inn, this is not good, do nothing, you have to sit in a formation, you see me scary, it's okay, the guests see the food, the clean room, they won't leave.
I don't think he's good-looking, but it's not that exaggerated, right, he is a bit of a joke about his appearance, beauty and ugliness, what is the effect?
Your inn business is not good, it is not unrelated to you, and you can't be blamed alone.
I understand.
If you want to learn, I don't have anything to teach you, I only say so much, the guest called me, and I was out of company.
I nodded, pondering what he had said.
The strange thing is that when I walk back and forth on the second floor, I can always smell the smell of braised hooves, and it seems that I am walking wherever I go.
If it weren't for the earrings falling off, I picked them up and put them on, and I really didn't notice that the sleeves were smeared with a piece of soup, but why, my head was dizzy and painful.
I seemed to see Qiu Yu coming over, his face was cold, his facial features didn't seem to move, he was a stone man, but his eyes clearly wanted to kill me. I watched the cold, but I didn't have time to shiver, I could only feel the darkness and fear.
Qiu Yu did come over, you see, he walked towards me coldly, he wanted to watch me fall like this, but Mo Qing on the first floor reminded him loudly that he helped me and helped me back to his room.
Close the curtains, close the doors and windows, and the room is airtight.
I was unconscious, and I lay on the cold ground, and the double cold made me tremble together.
You see me, I am a sword, I am a fish. can only be at the mercy of autumn language.
Lu Shang knocked on the door because he couldn't find me.
Qiu Yu held his breath and didn't make a sound, and then, he took out a knife.
He walked over, in Lu Shang's hurried knocking and shouting, he squatted down, the tip of the knife was only an inch away from my chest, but he didn't move, it seems, my skin is not easy to pierce, he is not sure, you can still see that he is afraid, although it is revenge, but it is also murder, he wants to break my heart, but he can't do it.
His breathing was heavy and weak, he threw the knife and lay down cramping, as if his mouth and nose were blocked and he couldn't breathe.
His life hung by a thread, and I was unconscious.
Lu Shang didn't have time to find the key, he broke in, he patted me first, called me, I heard, opened his eyes, and looked at Qiu Yu, Qiu Yu was lying flat, and there was no blood on his face.
Save the whispers.
I said that, and I didn't know what happened next.
As you can see, Lu Shang called someone and sent us to the medical hall, and Lang Zhong of the medical hall was helpless against our poison, so he needed to go to Chestnut Village overnight to find Lang Zhong.
Poisoning?
Lu Shang understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, and he wanted to kill Qiu Yu immediately.
I woke up on the road, and the bumpy carriage made me wonder.
Don't talk just yet, get some rest.
What about whispers?
Strangled.
