Chapter 50: No Discipline
Jiang Fenghao deliberately squeezed her side, and deliberately held her hand tightly in order to prevent her from jumping up and running away, "Lady, don't get excited, calm down and listen to my explanation." β
"Explain what?" He Xiaoqiao looked at him calmly, "Investigate my matter?" β
"Ahem!" Jiang Fenghao coughed, lowered his head and thought for a while, and began to brew emotions, "This, you listen to my explanation......"
"I'll talk about this later," Obviously, He Xiaoqiao didn't plan to listen to him so much, so he simply spread his right hand and moved forward, "Take it." β
Jiang Fenghao was confused, "What? β
"Information," throwing a roll of his eyes, He Xiaoqiao said angrily, "Didn't you find someone to investigate me?" I'll take it out and see what I've checked. β
Nani?!
In order to let He Xiaoqiao calmly accept what he was going to say next, Jiang Fenghao thought about it for a whole day before he thought of first using a beautiful man trick to charm her, and then all kinds of cute and coquettish begging to make her dizzy and forget everything.
He even thought about what to do if He Xiaoqiao couldn't accept being angry and crying, otherwise, if she didn't say a word and started fighting, he was ready to be beaten for 120,000 points-
As a result, people waved their hands directly in the first link, and said to him, it doesn't matter, I don't mind, and even asked him for the results of the investigation with the same interest as no one! This and this, it's so domineering that he can't take it on!
Jiang Fenghao's expression was solemn, and he touched the top of He Xiaoqiao's head with his hand, and suddenly had an impulse to split her head to see if the circuit inside was different from others?
"Why are you looking at me like that? Could it be that you suddenly fell in love with me? He Xiaoqiao slapped away his Lushan claws, bumped him with his elbow again, and urged, "Hurry up, hurry up, don't rub it." β
To be honest, she has always maintained a state of ignorance about the past of her current body, and most of the things used to come out of other people's mouths, and now someone has helped her do a comprehensive investigation for free, and she is too sorry for herself if she doesn't take the opportunity to see it.
Facing He Xiaoqiao's sharp eyes, 'If you dare not take it out, you will die', Jiang Fenghao sighed silently, and took out the file hidden in his wide sleeves with preparation.
He Xiaoqiao snatched it and couldn't wait to open it.
Although she has only been in this world for half a year, thanks to the father of this body who doesn't know where to dig it up, and the rotten books that she collected like a baby, now those traditional Chinese characters with so many strokes that people feel dizzy at a glance are not difficult for her.
Looking at it all the way, there is nothing distinctive at all.
The owner of this body is really the same as the uncles and aunts in Rainbow Village, withdrawn and autistic, in addition to recognizing life, he is also very timid and loves to cry, and when he grows up, he doesn't even dare to go out of the door, and hides in the house every day to do embroidery work, and he has no good friends around him.
It's no wonder that when she was just fished out of the river, a bunch of lively villagers watched her for a long time, but they couldn't remember who her parents were, and finally someone recognized that the thin silver bracelet like a leek strip wrapped around her wrist belonged to the He family, so they sent her back.
As early as when he was in Rainbow Village, Jiang Fenghao knew that He Xiaoqiao would be a pair, at that time he thought it was just a 'family heirloom' passed down by word of mouth, but now he saw with his own eyes that she could read the densely written dossier smoothly without any obstacles, and he was not surprised that it was fake.
"Lady literacy?" The message sent by Lu Ziqi didn't mention this.
He Xiaoqiao didn't doubt him, his eyes were firmly locked on the file, and he subconsciously responded, "Well, I recognize some." β
Is it really just a matter of recognizing?
Jiang Fenghao touched his chin with his hand, there was a hint of interest in his eyes, but he was not in a hurry to demolish her.
He Xiaoqiao turned the file upside down and turned it upside down, but he didn't find anything he was interested in, and returned it with no interest.
When she excitedly asked Jiang Fenghao for the jade bone fan that could fight and resist, the 'mysterious investigation incident' that the two had been entangled for most of the day was so smoothly revealed.
went to the knot, He Xiaoqiao got up again, although Jiang Fenghao was so angry that he was speechless every day, but he didn't forget to take care of his three meals, so that Jiang Fenghao was happy and satisfied.
The days flew by, and more than half a month passed in the life of the palace, and Princess Jinghe, who said that she wanted to come to learn cooking, did not appear again.
He Xiaoqiao naturally classified her previous behavior as the three-minute heat of the little fart, and wanted to put it behind her, but she didn't expect that just two days after October, when the autumn wind was blowing, Princess Jinghe rode a horse all the way into the Changning Palace, and even brought a basket of big crabs that were said to have been carefully selected as tribute.
People in this era have no concept of eating crabs, even if they occasionally see them, they will be trampled to death as insects, when she asked if there was anything for sale at the market, everyone only listened to it as a joke, and some people even kindly told her that it was highly poisonous and could not be eaten, and of course no one regarded it as food on the table.
He Xiaoqiao was still wondering how she knew that she wanted to find this, and Jing He, who couldn't hide her thoughts, had already taken the lead in shaking out the mastermind behind the scenes, "Uncle Seventeen said that you can make this thing into a delicious meal." β
"......" He Xiaoqiao simply doesn't know how to look directly at Jiang Fenghao, a well-deserved foodie!
Carefully took the chopsticks and turned over the raw crabs that were still alive and jumping, each one was two-thirds the size of her palm, the crab shell was a glossy blue-gray, the navel was still muddy, the carapace was white, the hair of the crab legs was long and yellow, and even the crab claws were close to the same color as golden, which was completely in line with the modern people's perception of hairy crabs, especially the hairy crabs of Yangcheng Lake.
As the saying goes, "If you don't know Yangcheng and be ashamed of your eyes, you won't eat crabs and live up to your belly", although there is no Yangcheng Lake in this world, there are hairy crabs with Yangcheng Lake standards.
It seems that Jiang Fenghao has put a lot of effort into the ingredients in order to eat, and these crabs are all found according to the conditions she said before.
I've just had breakfast, so it's a bit early to make lunch.
He Xiaoqiao thought about it, reluctantly screwed the crab to the ventilated place in the kitchen, and then instructed Cailian to go to the account room to receive the money for buying vegetables, and turned around to shout with great interest.
The feet of the Son of Heaven are always so lively, no matter morning or evening, especially the meat and vegetable market on East Street, which is the most bought and sold by the people, is the most popular.
Jing and affectionately holding He Xiaoqiao's hand on the road, when she went out just now, He Xiaoqiao deliberately asked her to change into a low-key plain clothes, although it is also a good material, but after changing the color, the whole person seems to have changed, and after walking on the street for a while, no one recognized her as the unruly eldest princess who was in fresh clothes and angry horses on weekdays.
He Xiaoqiao was very satisfied with this effect, and Jinghe was also happy not to be pointed at, his steps were brisk all the way, and his mood was as excited as if he was about to fly.
After choosing the materials to be used to make crabs, He Xiaoqiao went to the Lao Wang mutton shop at the entrance of the street to weigh some fresh mutton, and then picked some kale and Chinese cabbage that were still stained with water droplets on the vegetable stall next to him.
He Xiaoqiao said thank you and wanted to leave, but when she turned her head, she found that Jinghe, who was originally following her, had run out without knowing when, and was now squatting in front of a stall selling game, curiously poking at the panicked fat hare who was locked in a cage.
The stall owner was an honest country man who looked to be about thirty years old, with a dark complexion, a little bulging eyes, and obvious fine lines at the corners of his eyes due to overwork. If you don't buy it, the meat is fresh, and it costs 12 wen a catty. β
Twelve? It's not much more expensive than pork.
"Okay, I'll buy it." Before Jinghe could speak, He Xiaoqiao, who couldn't help but want to show his 'wealth' as soon as he had money in his hand, preemptively said, "This big brother, I want two rabbits, how much do you calculate?" β
"Aunt Seventeen, what are you going to buy rabbits for?" Hearing this, Jinghe hurriedly stood up, with a little anxiety on her pretty face, "The rabbit is so cute, you can't eat it." β
He Xiaoqiao glanced at her, "Who said I bought it back to eat?" β
Jinghe was a little stunned, "Didn't you eat?" β
"Don't you like it? It's good to buy it back and keep it. Signaling Cailian to step forward to pay the bill, He Xiaoqiao also squatted down and pinched the rabbit's long ears, his eyes inadvertently fell on the half-spread pocket next to him, and his eyes instantly lit up.
Stretched out his hand and opened the pocket a little, picked up a plum-sized wild fruit and looked at it, and then put it under his nose and smelled it, a familiar fragrance, sure enough, it was a green plum!
"How do you sell this?"
The stall owner obviously didn't expect He Xiaoqiao to ask this, so he reacted after a while, "This thing was picked by the children of the family in the back mountain, and the children are not sensible, saying that they are going to sell it for money to help the family." But everyone knows that this wild fruit is very sour, no one buys it at all, and it is not worth much. β
As he spoke, his subordinates quickly packed up the bag of green plums, and pushed it in front of He Xiaoqiao together with the deaf man with the hare, and smiled innocently, "If the girl is useful, take it back together." β
He also brought this wild fruit to the market only in order not to disappoint the children, and now someone has helped him take it away, and he will have to carry it back later, and he is reluctant to throw it away, so it is a filial piety of several children.
"Since it's a child's heart, I can't just take it for nothing." He Xiaoqiao smiled and took out a piece of broken silver from his purse and stuffed it into him, "I bought these green plums, and if there are still them in the future, they will all be sent to me." β
Green plums can be made into saltwater plums, plum embryos, salted dried plums, and can also be made into preserved fruits, jam and fruit wine. It's good now, so many green plums, take it back and pickle it for a month, and there will be raw materials.
The stall owner let this sudden good thing smash a little dazed, and it took a long time to look at the silver horn in his palm with excellent color, and stammered to explain, "Can ...... Can...... It's a lot of money...... "But a few wild fruits that no one wants, it's actually more than half a month's income!"
He Xiaoqiao coughed twice in his heart, half a tael is five hundred copper plates, no wonder the stall owner was dumbfounded, sure enough, the ancient silver was valuable.
"Take it, buy some delicious food and go back, and make the children at home happy."
It is said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, and those who can understand the hard work of their parents are good children, which deserve to be commended.
When she said this, the stall owner seemed a little moved, but after hesitating and handed the silver back, "This silver is too much, I ...... I can't ask for it. β
Jinghe, who was standing aside and teasing himself and playing with the rabbit, raised his willow eyebrows when he saw this, and said very unhappily, "Why are you so strange, you still push three or four to give you silver!" That's my seventeenth aunt's heart, don't you know what to ......do."
"Tranquility." He Xiaoqiao frowned, reached out and pulled her sleeve to interrupt her, and then looked at the stall owner with a kind face, "This big brother, the silver I gave you is used to book the next two months, a basket of green plum money per month, you can take it." β
After He Xiaoqiao's explanation, the stall owner finally accepted the silver with peace of mind, and made an appointment with He Xiaoqiao to send Qingmei over on the 15th of next month, and then left with a smile.
He Xiaoqiao has been standing in place, watching him carefully pick two little sugar figures from the stall not far away, wrapping them in oiled paper, and holding them in his arms like a baby with his waist hunched, his nose was sore, and tears slowly slid down his cheeks.
Dad...... I miss you so much.
As soon as Cai Lian saw He Xiaoqiao crying, she immediately panicked, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to help her wipe it off, "Miss, why are you crying?" Did that person do something that upset you? I'm going to find Wang ......."
"I'm fine." He Xiaoqiao pushed her hand away and wiped her face with her sleeve.
"Why is Aunt Seventeen crying? Did someone bully you? Jinghe casually stuffed the rabbit in his arms into the arms of the person who followed behind, and rolled up his sleeves indignantly, "Don't be afraid, I'll go and avenge you!" β
"It's fine, I just accidentally blinded the sand." He Xiaoqiao made an excuse randomly, sniffed, and put the purse back into the small backpack he was carrying, "Okay, let's go back." β
"Is Miss really okay?" Cailian is still a little worried.
"It's okay," He Xiaoqiao took a deep breath, although his eyes were still red, his emotions had calmed down, "Let's go ......"
Before the word 'go' fell, an old lady in tattered clothes not far in front of the three of them suddenly fell down without warning, and then a man's shrill cry sounded like thunderβ
"Hit someone! Come on, someone's hitting someone! β
