Chapter 54: The Luminous Glass of Grape Wine

Huo Erye seemed to have seen through Huo Sanniang's thoughts, and he didn't bother to show his excellent acting skills, so he grabbed her, blinked his eyes and said softly: "Eh, don't go." I won't say anything. ”

Huo Sanniang didn't believe it: "Really don't say it?" ”

Huo Yuncheng smiled: "I really don't want to say it." ”

Bai Zeqing couldn't even look at it, and couldn't help but slander in his heart: Second master, can you stop gossiping like this! Don't interfere with my listening to the case. vertex

She gave Banxia Lian a look, took a cup of tea from Banxia's new building, carefully handed it to Huo Sanniang, and flattered: "Sanniang say it quickly, and then what?" ”

Huo Sanniang sat down at this time, took a sip of the teacup, and continued: "Yin Duomi and his cronies were pressed by our people in front of the court. went straight to prison. Then, of course, a good trial. ”

Huo Yuncheng was stunned and asked, "Who will judge?" Wen Jinnuo? ”

"With him? As soon as he arrived in Yuanzhou, he was beaten by the prison boss, I guess most of him didn't even dare to go to the prison, how to interrogate? Don't worry, I asked Huo Yinxing to take our people to help with the trial, that little goblin loves ...... the most Forehead," Huo Sanniang glanced at Bai Zeqing, an outsider, and changed the word, "I am the best at torture, and I am not afraid that he will not speak." And ......"

Huo Sanniang smiled slightly and said, "As soon as Yin Duomi was arrested, someone sent ironclad evidence. And guess who? ”

Bai Zeqing cheered and said: "Who's who, the third lady will come and listen to it." ”

Huo Yuncheng put the teacup and got up and walked to the bookcase, and said without giving face as he walked: "Accomplice, who else can there be?" Is it Li Tong's sentence or Lu Jietui? ”

"Second brother, you're really boring." Huo Sanniang pursed her lips and said, "It's Li Tong's judgment." Yin Duomi was arrested here, and the Tongju Mansion had already packed up and left the city. If it weren't for my people secretly passing the message all the way, they wouldn't have been able to catch him. This person did not need to be interrogated, and as soon as he was caught, he handed over the written confession, confessed to the exchange of moldy rice for new rice in Yushancang and the explosion and arson, and the people involved, the grain store, all of them were clearly explained, and he was willing to testify in court, just hoping to save the life of his wife and only son. ”

Bai Zeqing nodded, his fingers didn't touch the tea anymore, so he drew casually on the tea case, and said: "In this way, the context of the black powder explosion and arson case and the Yushancang grain embezzlement case has been basically clear, and the whereabouts of the rice and grain should also be tried." The coolies of the soldiers arrested in Bingshan are not difficult to interrogate, and with the testimony of voluntary confessions, it is only a matter of time before the truth is revealed. Now that's all that's left for Sun Zhengtong's dead ......"

"Speaking of this case," Huo Sanniang frowned slightly, "The person you painted, the streets and alleys, the fence and the tiles, my people have searched all over the place, and I can't find any clues about him." Nuoda is a Yuanzhou city, and he can't even find a person who knows him, so it's no wonder that you say it's strange. ”

"What about the black market? Have you looked for it? Isn't the black market the most well-informed? ”

"Black market regulations: no identity, no location, no news. This is true for people and things. When you go to the black market to buy news, you also buy outside news. As long as it doesn't involve people who make a living on the black market, it's fine. ”

"Then we'll find it ourselves."

You're going to the black market? You are crazy?

"There is no outside, there is a high probability, it is in the black market, and it is unwilling not to try your luck"

"If you want to go, go ahead. Go again after lunch. Huo Erye folded the good Jinzhou rice paper and said, "I'm hungry, let's eat." ”

This time, I didn't go to the pavilion and flower bed courtyard, but in the serious flower hall on the east side of Huo Yuncheng's courtyard.

A few people turned around the corridor and saw that Zhou Qian and Nan Nan were also led over by the maidservant.

Zhou Qian still looked like he hadn't woken up, fighting his spirits, occasionally covering his mouth and nose with his sleeves and yawning. When I saw the Huo family brothers and sisters, I still saw them in a proper manner.

Nan Nan took Zhou Qian's hand and followed him step by step. The little girl in the baby pink jacket looked very well-behaved. Seeing Zhou Qianxing, he also learned from his appearance, and called in a milky voice: "The second master is good, the third lady is good, and Sister Bai is good." ”

"Ouch, Nan Nan is really good," Huo Sanniang liked it very much when she saw Nan Nan, and beckoned to her: "Come here, Sanniang will take you to eat well." ”

Nan Nan looked up and saw Zhou Qian nodded, so she obediently walked over and took Huo Sanniang's hand, and Huo Sanniang was so happy that she couldn't see her eyebrows.

Inside the house.

The pot of mutton bone soup on the table of the Eight Immortals is steaming, and the cook is slicing fresh mutton and radish on the long table not far away, and the ingredients in the pot Codonopsis, red dates, wolfberry, and angelica are boiling in the pot, and the aroma spreads throughout the room.

Several people sat around a table, and as a whole plate of thinly and long cut mutton and white-cut radish was poured into the pot, Bai Zeqing, a beginner who could not starve to death without eating, and had just entered the half-step cultivation door between his toes, couldn't help but swallow his saliva at this moment, and suddenly felt so hungry and wanted to eat.

Sure enough, the true meaning of food is to enjoy the food itself, not just to survive.

Lamb is the most tender part of the tenderloin and is extremely delicious.

The dipping sauce is made of sesame paste, fermented bean curd, soybean paste, coriander, chives, and a small amount of plum juice and starch syrup. It can not only perfectly mask the smell of mutton, but also maintain the original flavor of mutton.

Bai Zeqing drank half a bowl of soup first, ate a few pieces of meat, and squinted his eyes contentedly.

Huo Sanniang ate a few pieces, very satisfied, and suddenly "oops", as if she suddenly thought of something, hurriedly called the maidservant, and ordered: "Let people go to the ice cellar to get a jar of Northern Xinjiang wine." The maidservant was ordered to leave, but she shouted again, "By the way, you go to my courtyard and get a few carved glass cups." It goes well with wine. Hurry up. ”

……

After three rounds of wine, Bai Zeqing sighed with emotion: "The third lady is honest and does not deceive me, this cold wine with mutton is really delicious in the world." ”

There was fine sweat on the forehead that had already eaten at this time, and she couldn't stop "Mmmm." seemed to agree with Bai Zeqing's words.

Huo Sanniang laughed at her: "I haven't drunk anything, how do you know that this wine is good with mutton?" ”

She smiled, touched her bulging belly, and said in a childish voice: "Mutton, delicious." ”

Huo Yuncheng had already stopped chopsticks, and when he heard Nannan's words at this moment, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and said to Banxia: "Make some hawthorn red fruit tea and give the little girl some to drink." When he saw the little girl's appearance, he was always afraid that she would break it.

At this time, the chef had already cleaned up the long case of mutton, and the cook held the pomelo cut into the shape of a flowering peony and put it on the table.

"Wow, Yuzhou Wendan." Bai Zeqing's eyes were shining, she also ate it once when she was in Jinzhou. This is the best of grapefruit, and it was set as a tribute in the third year of the Tang Dynasty.

Huo Sanniang took a piece and handed it to Nannan, seeing that she was honestly and obediently holding a small stutter, she couldn't help but feel more pity in her heart, and said to Bai Zeqing: "Hey, little lady of the Bai family, how about you sell this little girl to me?" ”
