Chapter 315 Steamed Pork Ribs with Black Bean Sauce (4)
A person who likes to be clean and doesn't like to pile up waste in the house, when he leaves for a long trip, he must clean up the house.
This point can be seen by watching them Lin Shaoqing. Every time I go back from the yamen, the waste paper used in the house and the charcoal basin burned in the winter will be emptied and tidied up, and I will leave only after everything is neatly arranged.
Seeing that the pens, inks, papers and inkstones in Steward Niu's house were arranged in an orderly manner without any distortion, and after hearing the news from the handymen, Wei Fu felt something was wrong when he first saw the charcoal basin, and wanted to take it with him. return.
Fortunately, the handyman in the internal affairs office was greedy for money, and felt that the unpacked charcoal basin was not an important item, so he asked Wei Fu to take the charcoal basin away.
Everything in the charcoal basin was burnt to nothing but ashes, but Wei Fu moved the charcoal basin carefully all the way, and didn't break up the charcoal ashes in the charcoal basin, so the debris and ash still maintained their original shape.
Under some scattered ashes on the surface is a whole square-sized piece of complete ashes. The size and shape of the ash is so familiar that no Dali Temple official will be unfamiliar with it.
Liu Yuan just glanced at it, and immediately blurted out: "It was a piece of paper, and it was burned."
As soon as the voice fell, a gust of wind blew, and the square-sized complete debris ash was blown into the air by the wind, and the debris was flying, leaving only a messy pile of ashes in the charcoal basin.
Looking at this fleeting scene, Liu Yuan sighed for no reason.
This detritus ashes certainly cannot be used as evidence. Without this gust of wind, this charcoal basin would not be able to be brought to court, but to the officials of Dali Temple, this complete debris is not useless.
The last thing that Steward Niu did before leaving the internal affairs office must have been to look at the things on this piece of paper. After reading it, he immediately burned the things on this piece of paper, and before he even had time to throw it away, he hurried out the door. Haven't returned yet.
As for Guanshi Niu's hometown and where he went back to his hometown, Wei Fu had already inquired about it, and after recording everything he had found out and handing it over to Liu Yuan and the others, Wei Fu said again: "I heard that when Guanshi Mao hadn't moved out of the yard, Well, Guanshi Niu has a good relationship with him, after all, they are under the same roof, because Guanshi Niu likes to clean up, he will often help Guanshi Mao who is too lazy to clean up the house."
Compared with Niu Guanshi, who likes to do everything by himself, Mao Guanshi is obviously a pleasure-seeking person. If someone does it for him, he is naturally happy to see the results.
"Guan Mao has a lot of money, and he would often bring some food and other items from Hongyanlou and other places outside to send to Guan Niu, and use it as the hard work of cleaning the house, and the two of them get along well." Wei Fu said, "But wait After Mao Guanshi moved away, because of the different things in charge, the two of them had no interaction over time."
Although they both come from other places to be in charge of the Chang'an Household Yamen, their circumstances are very different: a man who manages the market has a lot of money, and the filial piety of the city magistrates is indispensable on weekdays. Although the magistrate has other sources of money, But as far as Guan Mao is concerned, how can he think there is too much money? However, the distribution of clean water things managed by Steward Niu is completely useless, and the guards and Li Zheng will not pay special respect to Steward Niu for this, which is a laborious and tedious job.
No wonder they are both stewards, one lives in a mansion as a master who is served by others, while the other still lives in the house where the house steward lives.
"This Steward Niu is the same as Steward Mao," Wei Fu said when talking about Steward Niu's experience. This time, I don’t know what the reason is to make the common people upset and make such a big commotion.”
Now that the two things are related, it must not be so easy to find the "returning hometown" Niu Guanshi. Everyone in Dali Temple knows this well, but when they bring the clean water distributed by Wei Fu's home yamen After the object returned to Dali Temple to confirm that it was indeed the object's problem, it was still necessary to ask people to go to the "hometown" of Steward Niu to inquire about the situation.
So far, the matter of the stomach trouble has been clarified. As for the motive, it will be clear only after finding Guanshi Niu.
Wei Fu's discovery connected the two incidents together. Although it is not clear what the relationship between the two foreign stewards is, it also made progress in the case.
With this discovery, I don't know what arrangements Lin Shaoqing will have tomorrow.
Liu Yuan looked up at Shangfeng. After returning from Shangfeng, he packed up the files that were scattered randomly on the case. After Lin Fei finished tidying up, Liu Yuan was about to ask Lin Fei about tomorrow's arrangements, but his arm was touched by Bai Zhu unexpectedly. bump.
Liu Yuan didn't understand why he looked at Bai Zhu, but he saw Bai Zhu shook his head at him, and before Bai Zhu could speak, he heard Lin Fei who had packed up the case and said, "Tomorrow I will have a banquet at home, and the case It's up to you to decide!"
As he spoke, he handed the written leave note to Bai Zhu, entrusted him to deliver it to Zhao Mengzhuo, and left.
Liu Yuan couldn't help taking a breath when he saw that he walked so simply, he pushed Bai Zhu's hand, and said, "It's the first time I saw our Lin Shaoqing walk so simply when the case was progressing." Yes, just... just let the case go?"
Bai Zhu also had some doubts on his face, but he still shook his head and said, "Forget it, since Lin Shaoqing asked me to wait for my own decision, I should always find out some things tomorrow, otherwise when Lin Shaoqing comes back to ask about it the next day, I will ask you two questions." I'm afraid I'm going to lose all my face!"
The Sicheng of Dali Temple is not a wine bag and rice bag.
Just thinking like this, Liu Yuan suddenly let out an "ah" and sighed: "I almost forgot that Lin Shaoqing's family will have a banquet tomorrow, and Master Wen will not be in the public kitchen. I'm afraid there will be no new dishes to try tomorrow! "The tone is quite regrettable.
Bai Zhu: "..." Although the Prime Minister of Dali Temple is not a wine bag and rice bag, he is always thinking about food in his mind.
Wen Mingtang, who was talked about by Liu Yuan, handed over the menu of three meals from the public kitchen to Tang Yuan and A Bing, and went to prepare for tomorrow's family banquet in Jingyunhou's Mansion.
Compared with the big pot dishes of the public chef, this kind of banquet dishes are more meticulous and exquisite, taking care of the tastes of the host and the guests, and each dish is quite particular. Once, let Wen Mingtang bring some red yeast rice over there, there is no more in Daojing Yunhou's mansion, and I don't know if there is a public cook in Dali Temple.
There is a dish of braised pork in braised pork in tomorrow's banquet, which needs to be colored with red yeast rice to make it more red and bright.
Braised Pork in Braised Pork is a very common dish, but every cook has different preferences in terms of its color and taste.
It is also very common to like to use red yeast rice to color meat dishes. There are not a few cooks in the city who add red yeast rice to braised pork meat. Besides, it is Master Xing who cooks this dish, so Wen Mingtang will naturally not intervene.
As for red yeast rice, which is a little effort, she has already prepared it and is going to take it there tomorrow.
