Governor of the Metropolitan Water Cook, Section 137
Especially as he watched Zheng Wan's eyes change from the previous optimism to the current transparency and insight into people's hearts, it seemed that a string in his brain was about to break.
In the wordless gaze, he suddenly heard Zheng Wan on the other side, saying word by word as if swearing:
"I want to go back to the mansion of the Zheng family in Xingyang, and ask Cui Jian Cheng to help me?"
Chapter 92: Confrontation
Hearing this, Cui Zhiyun frowned, the worry in his eyes couldn't be dissolved like thick ink, and asked:
"Does the lady want to return to the Zheng clan in Xingyang? Regain your identity? ”
In his cognition, this is not the Zheng Wan he knows.
Although it seems that he loves money a little, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way, unlike the kind of person who wants to get into the quagmire with others for the sake of profit.
"The former is not, the latter is."
From Cui Zhiyun's words just now, Zheng Wan knew that she was in Xingyang Zheng's family, and it was absolutely impossible to find the family affection she wanted, so she could also abandon this kind of feeling.
It's not like she hasn't experienced a single life, not to mention that she created wealth here earlier than in her previous life, and has her own house in the capital and enough money to support the rest of her life.
Contentment and happiness, this is also one of her life labels.
However, she doesn't want to return to the Zheng family in Xingyang, which does not mean that Zheng Wan in the previous sixteen years will pass away quietly like this, being blinded by lies and passing away in the ignorance of real relatives.
Even if it was rumored by the Zheng family in Xingyang that a girl had died more than ten years ago, she didn't want a group of people to continue to sit on Zheng Wan's bones, as if nothing had happened, and continue to live her good life with peace of mind.
Especially Zheng Lanru, who assisted Zheng Lanyue and stole her from the Zheng family in Xingyang, the traffickers should be severely punished, regardless of status.
Now she continues to be the mother of the Zheng family, enjoying the glory that does not belong to her.
This group of people is one of the driving forces behind Zheng Wan's early death, and they should all be physically tortured and condemned internally.
Even if it was just to leave a mark on their hearts and stir up the storm, she felt compelled to do it.
Cui Zhiyun was a little puzzled by Zheng Wan's firm eyes and some incomprehensible words, pondered for a while, and asked:
"I don't know what the lady means?"
"Er wants to take this opportunity to return to the Zheng Mansion and expose the hypocritical faces of this group of people. Although I believe in Cui Jiancheng's investigation results, there is no tangible evidence to prove that I am the girl that Xingyang Zheng is looking for.
Although I don't know why they have been hoping to go back in the next place recently, according to Cui Jiancheng's words, I can only guess that there is something they need in their body, or it can bring them benefits. Otherwise, I really don't know that I am an orphan girl, what has to be bothered by the Zheng family in Xingyang.
This kind of purposeful behavior, I feel that it is necessary to go and explain it, otherwise I don't know how they will continue to entangle in the future.
Cui Jiancheng also knew that Zai Xia was just an orphan girl from Handong County, and in the face of the Xingyang Zheng family among the five surnames, she was undoubtedly a mantis arm. Therefore, they want to borrow the name of Cui Jiancheng to erase their careful thoughts, so as not to continue to entangle in the future.
Just this time, if Cui Jiancheng needs to do anything in the future, he will not hesitate to go to the soup. ”
"Mrs. Zheng is serious when she speaks like this."
Cui Zhiyun listened to Zheng Wan's explanation, and suddenly understood why the other party did this.
Obviously, Zheng Wan also knew that she was most likely the baby girl who was replaced by the Zheng family in Xingyang sixteen years ago, but she didn't want to go back, but recently, the people from the Zheng family in Xingyang have been inquiring about the news.
If you want to block the prying eyes of the Zheng family in Xingyang once and for all, you can go directly to the door and make it clear.
It's just that he can't think of what method Zheng Wan wants to use to interrupt the Zheng family's thoughts, for the scholars who value blood and kinship, it is not a simple matter to want to retreat.
But he also has a heartfelt trust in Zheng Wan, and in Zheng Wan's expectant eyes, he nodded and said:
"I can agree to the lady's proposal, but it is estimated that it will take a few days to visit."
Zheng Wan originally wanted Cui Zhiyun to send a few strong people to help him, but now it sounds like Cui Zhiyun himself wants to go into battle.
It's just that with Cui Zhiyun as a backer, she will be more confident, and she is a little flattered and stands up directly and salutes in the direction of Cui Zhiyun.
"Thank you, Eunuch Cui!"
The scene of the conversation between the two people was completely watched by the two sisters who were barbecuing, and suddenly seeing Zheng Wan's big movement, the two stopped the skewers in their hands in a little panic and stood up suddenly.
This scene was also seen by Zheng Wan's afterglow, thinking that he had just faced such a big shock, and the air had been exuding the aroma of barbecue.
She suddenly felt that her stomach was a little hungry, and after standing up straight, she said to Cui Zhiyun with a smile:
"Cui Jiancheng, do you want to try the barbecue we made? With nothing to do, the three of us asked the back kitchen to send some food and prepared to make some barbecue for ourselves. ”
The topic of mutation made Cui Zhiyun a little stunned, but thinking about the tense nerves these days, he felt that it was okay to relax a little once in a while.
"Thank you Zheng Niangzi for your kind invitation, but I will be disrespectful."
The two immediately raised their feet and walked towards the barbecue position, Zhao Qingyou and Zhao Qingmiao saw Cui Zhiyun approaching, and saluted habitually:
"I've seen Cui Jiancheng."
"No courtesy."
"Cui Jiancheng, please take a seat, these meats are marinated in advance, and they will be roasted soon. Sister, you first pour a bowl of cold sour plum soup for Cui Jiancheng to quench your thirst. ”
While speaking, Zheng Wan had already sat down naturally, looking at the fatty and thin mutton marinated and skewered on the side, and picked a few skewers at random.
"Whoa."
When Zhao Qingyou heard the order, he immediately poured the sour plum soup and handed it to Cui Zhiyun.
"Cui Jiancheng, please use it, this is made by Zheng Niangzi with her own recipe in the back kitchen, and it tastes very good."
Cui Zhiyun took the bowl and bowed his head to Zhao Qingyou.
He looked at the liquid that almost dyed the bowl purple-red, shaking it slightly, and even saw the light red juice hanging on the wall of the bowl, instantly catching people's attention.
When you get closer, you can still smell a faint sour smell, which is refreshing and cold to the touch.
With just these two feelings, he knew that the sour plum soup in front of him was indeed a rare drink in summer.
Immediately, aim the mouth of the bowl with your mouth and take a small sip.
The cold drink instantly suppressed the heat in the mouth, and quickly transmitted this cool feeling to the whole body, making people feel cool in an instant, as if they were on the side of Bingjian.
At the same time, the sour plum soup in his mouth also began to strongly declare his status.
The sourness quickly fills the entire mouth, as if puncturing the cells that crave moisture, driving the mouth to secrete more saliva.
Even under the catalysis of the sour taste, Cui Zhiyun suddenly felt that his stomach was a little hungry and he urgently needed food to eat.
In order for the sour taste to dissipate quickly, he subconsciously swallowed it, and the sour taste gradually spread throughout his body.
But after drinking it, what was left for him was a sweet taste, and the stimulation of the sour taste seemed to be an illusion.
All that remains in the mouth is a mysterious floral fragrance and a faint sweetness that whets the appetite.
Unconsciously, he drank most of the bowl of sour plum soup directly into his stomach.
It wasn't until Zheng Wan selected the barbecue and grilled it on a charcoal fire that the raw meat collided with the high-temperature grill, making a fierce "zizi" sound, that he woke up from the enjoyment of the sour plum soup.
Immediately looking towards the place where the sound came from, I saw the bright red barbecue, which quickly changed color under the high temperature, and even burned yellow in some corners.
As soon as a puff of smoke rose from the side of the roast at the bottom, the roast was immediately repositioned.
After a while, the barbecue tossed back and forth on the charcoal fire, exuding a unique aroma that belonged to the barbecue, and continued to spread around.
Cui Zhiyun suddenly felt that his stomach was even hungrier, and his eyes were locked on the barbecue and he was unwilling to take it away, and he used sour plum soup to hide the action of swallowing saliva.
Just when he thought that this large handful of barbecue could be eaten directly, he saw Zheng Wan directly holding a handful of barbecue meat in his left hand.
The barbecue was originally spread flat on the grill, so that Zheng Wan's hand was directly used as a dot to spread around, like an exploding hedgehog.
And flipping back and forth on Zheng Wan's flexible wrist, the barbecue made a fierce sound when the fat excited by the high temperature, and before the barbecue could react, a touch of red powder drifted down from the sky.
It instantly adds a touching touch of red to the golden roast and adds a strange aroma to the roast.
It's fragrant, spicy and numb, and there is a smell that Cui Zhiyun didn't smell.
At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the barbecue material scattered by Zheng Wan at will was scattered everywhere.
Cui Zhiyun, who was immersed in the fragrance, was rarely slow to react, and by the time he reacted, he had already inhaled a mouthful of barbecue powder wrapped in peppers.
Suddenly, it caused a vibration in the nasal cavity.
"Ahh Ahh ”
The body began to sneeze uncontrollably, and the movement startled Zheng Wan, who was spilling.
She asked with some concern: "Cui Jiancheng, can't you eat spicy food?" These sprinkles are topped with pepper and peppercorns, and if you can't eat them, I'll make you a new one. ”
"Mrs. Zheng doesn't have to bother, she just inhaled a mouthful of pepper inadvertently, and she can already eat a lot of pepper after the lady made a red crayfish feast."
Only then did Zheng Wan nod in understanding, and quickly sprinkled all the barbecue meat in his hand evenly with barbecue ingredients.
Immediately put this large handful of barbecue on the plate and handed it to her to go to the Zheng Mansion to find the big backer of the field - Cui Zhiyun.
"Cui Jiancheng, please use it."
"Thank you, Mrs. Zheng."
Cui Zhiyun took the plate, placed it on the low table beside him, and chose one at random.
Holding it in his hand at the moment, he can feel the strong aroma of the barbecue even more, and even can see the fat in the barbecue, which is still bubbling with oil at this time, and the fine oil bubbles are produced and quickly disappear.
The spicy and meaty aroma spread to the tip of his nose at the hot temperature, and for a moment he felt his mouth start to burn.
Tempted by the deliciousness, he couldn't wait for the temperature to drop down, and took a bite directly at the barbecue.
In the face of the high temperature, he only dared to push it all down with his teeth, and the spicy barbecue fell directly into his mouth.
At this moment, he could no longer stop it, and his teeth seemed to be self-conscious, and he aimed directly at the barbecue and bit down.
The fat that had been grilled until it was browned was instantly squeezed, and hot oil was sprayed all around the mouth, and the aroma of the barbecue sauce on the outside exploded in the mouth.
The strong aroma of fat mixed with the spicy pepper, the hemp of Sichuan pepper, and the special aroma of cumin constantly impact the taste of those who taste this barbecue for the first time.
Cui Zhiyun also knew that people were good at riding horses and hunting, and barbecue was naturally an indispensable part of it.
He's eaten a lot, but none of them have shocked him more than now.
The first sensation in my mouth is an uncomfortable irritation, but I am quickly confused by its own taste until I swallow it all.
Even so, I still feel unsatisfied, and the numbness and spiciness, which have completely opened up people's appetites, attract people to continue to attack the next skewer of barbecue.
Before he knew it, he didn't know how many skewers he had eaten.
Zheng Wan, who was on the side, saw Cui Zhiyun eating as if no one was eating, and swept the table next to him at a glance and found that the sour plum soup he had just poured was gone.
