Dali Temple Small Dining Room

  Chapter 64 Hand rubbing ice powder

  What would a gambler with no money do?

  Why did Team Leader Huang suddenly set up a stage for Fuzi a few days ago to help him sing after he kicked Fuzi out last year?

   "This person surnamed Huang must have discovered and known something," Liu Yuan said, "For people like him, if they can't get any benefits from Fuzi, how can they set up a platform for him inexplicably?"

  Bai Zhu frowned: "Then what exactly did he discover? What is he doing on purpose?"

   "He is a gambler who is short of money, and this type of person will probably threaten him with secrets for money." Liu Yuan thought for a while, and said, "In the past, such cases were not rare."

   Speaking of this, Liu Yuan couldn't help but said: "In the cases that have been handled, most of these ordinary people who tried to blackmail each other in exchange for money were silenced by the other party!"

  Bai Zhu glanced at Liu Yuan.

  Liu Yuan spread his hands, pointed to the smothered leader Huang, and said, "Am I not right?"

  Bai Zhu: "..."

   And… quite right.

  No one will believe a blackmailer who keeps saying that he will stop when he receives the money. The person who can keep the most secret is always the dead. The first reaction of the blackmailed person to the threat of this kind of person is naturally to kill this mouth.

   "So the question still comes back to Fuzi, what secret is hidden behind his orphan, and this leader Huang is going to blackmail someone again." Bai Zhu said.

  Lin Fei nodded, looked around, and went downstairs.

   After Bai Zhu and Liu Yuan looked at Team Leader Huang's body with Wuzuo for a while, and made sure that there were no clues about the murderer, they went downstairs. When they reached the door of the Changshou troupe, they saw only Zhao You, but not Lin Fei.

   "Where's Lin Shaoqing?" Bai Zhu asked Zhao You.

  Zhao You pointed in the direction of Zhuquefang, and said: "Mrs. Jingyun Hou sent someone to find your lord. She said that there was something urgent, so Lin Shaoqing asked for leave and left." After saying that, he raised the leave note in his hand.

  Bai Zhu: "..."

  Liu Yuan: "..."

  Lin Shaoqing is quite disciplined!

  But now that Lin Shaoqing is gone, there is only one thing they have to do today.

"Go to the station outside the city and ask if Fuzi can read, and see if there are any clues at the station." Bai Zhu looked at the sun that was about to climb above his head, and held the file above his head to cover the sun, "It's almost noon, let's eat at a small restaurant outside!"

  Could it be that he deliberately went to Dali Temple in the sun, just to eat Master Sun's terrible lunch? If Master Wen came to do it, he would be happy to make this trip.

  Master Sun, who was crossing his legs behind the table, suddenly sneezed for no reason.

   Several servants who were frowning in front of the counter watching the dishes on the counter immediately changed their expressions, and looked angrily at the sneezing Master Sun: "Sun Dingren, how can you tell people to eat like this?"

  Master Sun looked embarrassed when he heard the words, but he still said bravely on his face: "It's just a sneeze, what is it? I'm not sick!"

  One sentence caused several guards to change their expressions immediately. Someone rolled up their sleeves, pointed at Master Sun's nose, and said, "Try saying it again!"

  Looking at the other party's tall and thick face, Master Sun flinched, a little scared after all. But in the face of such a situation at this time, it is really difficult to step down.

   While the two sides were in a stalemate, Ji Caimai came over, saw this situation and immediately exited to smooth things over.

   "Okay! Don't say a few words! Next time Master Wen cooks the morning food, you come and get an extra one!" Ji Caimai said to the five big and three rough servants.

  The guard's face softened a little, he looked at Ji Caimai and said, "That is to buy face for Master Tong Wen for Ji Cai!" After saying that, he slashed at Master Sun fiercely, and left.

   After the guards left, Ji Caimai looked at Master Sun who was full of fear, and said calmly, "Be careful next time!"

  Master Sun couldn't help being startled when he heard this sentence: I thought Ji Caimai was going to reprimand him, but how could he be so amiable!

After Ji Caimai told "be careful", he looked down at the dishes that Master Sun had put on the table, and his eyes swept over these dishes one by one. After a short pause, Ji Caimai turned around and left the public kitchen with his hands behind his back, and then He went back to his own room alone, took out a booklet, and after jotting down a few strokes on it, he put the booklet under the inkstone.

  The weather is getting hotter.

  Wen Mingtang poured out the prepared lime water, wrapped the ice powder seeds in gauze, put them in cooled boiling water and started kneading.

  A Bing and Tangyuan watched her movements curiously, and began to look forward to the snack called "Hand-rubbed Ice Powder" that they could eat soon.

When the rubbing is almost done, slowly pour the adjusted lime water along the edge, and after stirring evenly, Wen Mingtang put the ice powder bowl aside, half-lyed down on the rattan recliner, and shook a fan in his hand to share with A Bing. Chatting with glutinous rice balls.

   "The wealth and honor in the palace belong to His Majesty and Empress, not to us." Wen Mingtang said, "Everyone works in the same way. There are not only many rules, but also many intrigues."

When she turned into the eight-year-old girl, the girl fell wobbly and fell into the laundry sink while holding the laundry for the nobleman, and then...then she came, the one who opened her eyes For a moment, she felt like her whole body was sinking like lead, and her survival instinct allowed her to swim to the shore to save her life.

  Ji Caimai and the others were careful not to mention anything about Wen's family, so as not to irritate her, but A Bing and Tang Yuan, two and a half-year-old children, seemed to understand but didn't know much.

"I also entered the palace with a clan elder sister." Wen Mingtang closed his eyes, and memories of the original owner's childhood emerged in his mind, "She is one year older than me, and she is the most cute at home. She secretly helped me without telling my aunt." Infected with the beautiful Fengxian Dankou, she was scolded by her aunt. On weekdays, she would cry for a long time even if she kicked a stone on the road or sprained her foot. She was born very well, although she was still young at that time, but I can already imagine what it will look like in the future."

  It was a peony flower raised in a gentle and rich town, but before it could grow, it was filled into the tea garden of people. But perhaps judging from the situation of the Wen family, if they really grow up and fill in the teaching workshop, they will encounter more training.

  But peony flowers are just peony flowers, so how can they withstand Ye Ting's painstaking efforts. After Wen Mingtang came back from the water, he developed a high fever, and was bullied openly and secretly by the maids of Ye Ting. When he finally gained a foothold because he saved Zhao Sishan's life, he remembered the peony flower. Clan sister.

  When I started to inquire, the sign of the clan sister had already been withdrawn.

  In the palace, there is only one situation where the sign will be withdrawn, and that is when there are no people.

  Wen Mingtang didn't think about asking about the specific situation, and even begged Zhao Sishan, but Zhao Sishan was scolded after a little testing. From this, the two of them understood: the family sister's affairs should not be inquired about.

  Thinking that the peony-like girl might have withered in the unknown darkness, Wen Mingtang was not without regret.

  But... she herself is in prison, and there is really too little she can do.

   It's important to live first!

  After hearing about sister Wen Mingtang's family, A Bing and Tang Yuan turned pale: They ran in and out of Dali Temple every day, and the biggest villains they encountered were Master Sun and Master Wang. Unexpectedly, such a thing still exists, which is really scary.

  Wen Mingtang looked at the pale faces of the two, smiled and rubbed their heads to comfort them, then got up and said, "I'm eating ice powder!"
