Chapter 414 Mushroom Stewed Chicken Soup Rice Noodles (6)
Although it’s not like I’ve never met the noodle shop owner and his wife before, but this time they met, it was different...
are really different.
Early the next morning, accompanied by the worried Liang Hongjin, Wen Mingtang came to the noodle restaurant. The noodle restaurant couple had already put up a sign in front of the noodle restaurant that it was not open today. There is someone waiting at the door.
When they saw Liang Hongjin and Wen Mingtang next to her, the expressions on the faces of the husband and wife froze. Obviously, they had never thought that the "old man surnamed Wen" that Liang Hongjin was talking about was actually Wen Mingtang.
When the two approached the couple, the couple smiled and said, "So it's Master Wen, and his surname is Wen, that's right."
When chatting first, they knew that Wen Mingtang was the master of the public chef of Dali Temple. Their surname was Wen, but they didn't realize it... The two looked at the unremarkable girl in front of them, and their eyes fell on the girl's thick bangs. He looked at the rather delicate face carefully, as if he was trying to find the similarity between this face and the one in his memory.
Wen Mingtang just smiled at the two people's meticulous and scrutinizing gazes. After the two had scrutinized for a while, he slowly said, "My daughter Wen Mingtang, her father's surname is Wen, and her name is Xuan Ce."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the husband and wife who were still tentatively looking at her on the opposite side froze suddenly, and they looked at her in disbelief, seeing the lady in the turban moving her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but After all, the words did not come out of his mouth.
On the other hand, Liang Hongjin couldn't hold back anymore, patted her chest, and assured her: "Whether what she said is true, you two can go to Dali Temple and ask anyone. Or, just go and find that person." Du Lingmou is also successful, heh, he has sent people to trouble Xiao Mingtang before!"
When Liang Hongjin mentioned the word "Du Lingmou", the expressions of the couple changed again. After Liang Hongjin finished speaking, they couldn't wait to look at Wen Mingtang and asked, "How did Miss Wen escape back then?" Passed a catastrophe?"
"The new emperor is enthroned, and he will be released from the palace." Before Wen Mingtang could speak, Liang Hongjin answered for her, "Xiao Mingtang was too young to be sent to the Jiaofang, but to the Ye Court .”
Hearing this, the husband and wife breathed a sigh of relief, sighed with emotion, and said, "That's a blessing..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liang Hongjin's "bah": "Fortunately! What a good place is Yeting? Not to mention that Xiao Mingtang was specially 'authorized to take care of' by Du Lingmou. It's commonplace, and I drowned within half a month after entering the palace. When I was rescued, I was already out of breath. If it wasn't for the fate, Lord Yan couldn't bear it, and let me back again. Now I don't know if I can stand here with him. You two talk."
When he said this, Liang Hongjin's voice was obviously angry. When the couple heard that Du Lingmou had specially 'authorized to take care of' Wen Mingtang, their expressions froze, and a trace of remorse and self-blame flashed across their faces. It's not that Liang Hongjin couldn't see this expression, but she just snorted coldly and remained unmoved: "I didn't see you when I was sent to Yeting, I didn't see you when I was drowning, I didn't see you when I was about to enter the gate of hell. You guys, I didn’t see you when you were made things difficult for, and it’s useless to come here to regret and blame yourself after you’ve all left the palace!”
"Wen Xuance himself is locked in the prison waiting to be questioned, and he still has the ability to pass the news to you two?" Liang Hongjin just rolled his eyes at this, obviously not believing what the two said, "He is so powerful, Why don't you two buy some killers and just go to jail?"
As soon as the words came out, the man immediately said: "The two of us had this plan in the past. Mr. Wen seemed to have a premonition before the incident, and called the two of us away, saying that something might happen to the Wen family. Tell the two of us to return to Jiangnan quickly, and then he will order someone to bring a letter with us, and we will act according to what he said in the letter..."
"Where is the letter?" Liang Hongjin interrupted him unceremoniously, and stretched out his hand to the two of them, "Where is the letter?"
The husband and wife murmured: "...burned, Mr. Wen said that it will burn after reading it."
"So there is no proof?" Liang Hongjin sneered, and looked at the two with folded arms, "You two..."
Before he finished speaking, Wen Mingtang interrupted him.
"What the two of them said may be true." Wen Mingtang said, looking up at the two of them, "I saw both of them in the kitchen back then."
The kitchen is also in the backyard. Although it is a few yards away from where everyone in the Wen family lives, mortals cannot live without three meals a day. They are always hungry. When I went to the kitchen to have a look, Wen Mingtang met him in the kitchen. Those two people, just because they had been separated for many years, they had aged a lot, and there were some traces of time on their appearance, so they didn't think of it for a while. It's just that although he didn't remember it right away, the impression in his memory was still there, so when Wen Mingtang saw the two of them for the first time, he felt a little kind.
However, let her finally confirm that these two people belong to those two people, and it is still the bowl of dry mixed kidney flower noodles. The taste of the mouth is delicious and familiar. It is this taste.
Therefore, these two people are undoubtedly old friends of the Wen family, and the habit of burning after reading is also Wen Xuance's. She had heard Wen Xuance scolding Mrs. Wen in Mrs. Wen's arms. At that time, Mrs. Wen hugged the original owner in her arms, and explained to the husband who loudly reprimanded her that she wanted to keep it as a souvenir. The voice was gentle and human. The beauty Bihuajiao only heard Wen Xuance's groan, then turned around and strode away, leaving Mrs. Wen hugging the original owner and weeping.
For Mrs. Wen and the original owner, Wen Xuance was neither a good husband nor a good father. Wen Mingtang sighed quietly, but the thought of reminiscing about the past was only for a moment. She looked at the two of them and asked him, "What do you say?" You are not allowed to return to Beijing for ten years, and the ten-year period has not yet come, why are you two returning to Beijing at this time?"
The husband and wife looked at each other when they heard the words, and said to Wen Mingtang and Liang Hongjin, "Because... the late emperor passed away."
"Master Wen once said in his old letter that if the late emperor died, he would let the two of us go to Beijing immediately and keep an eye on Prince Liyang's mansion." The turban lady smiled wryly and said, "That's why the two of us opened a noodle restaurant here. .”
So...everything makes sense.
"No wonder the lady went out late at night to get the pendant on the day when Zhao Mengzhuo's accident happened!" Wen Mingtang said, his eyes paused on the pierced earlobes of the turban lady, and asked the two of them: "Madam must have gone to the Furong Garden that day." , then you can see how Princess Liyang fell and became paralyzed?"
