The case continued on the next day, but this time Wang Zhaodi did not appear at the Yamen.

Because what is being tried now is the issue of slander against Wang Zhaodi by the Lu family, the cook, and two diners. After the autopsy the day before, the truth was finally revealed, and all the slander against Wang Zhaodi has been completely cleared.

The reason why Wang Zhaodi didn't come was because she was really busy here.

Wang Chuanzong fell ill after returning home yesterday. It was rare for his weak body to hold on until the case was closed. The dual physical and mental pressure directly knocked this sick man down.

While Wang Zhaodi was helping to find a doctor for consultation, she also had to go to Food First, where the reputation of the place was in crisis and there was no one available.

Even if the previous cook came back, she would never be able to use it again, and she wouldn't dare to use it.

Whether a restaurant is prosperous or not depends on many factors, and the cook is the most important one among them.

The ancestor of the fat cook who puts food first was the imperial chef of the previous dynasty, so his skills are really good. Wang Zhaodi has been using it for more than ten years. The red and white cases in the kitchen are all old people with many years of experience. Food first is equivalent to the later generations.

It is impossible for a five-star restaurant to exist without Tie Zao (second chef), but no matter how good Tie Zao is, the fact that he has not become a chef for more than ten years already shows the problem.

He Xiaoman sent her right-hand assistant Zhuye to follow up on all matters at the Yamen, while she herself went to the shipping company's headquarters in Qinghe Prefecture.

"Third brother, you can only help me with this matter."

Sitting opposite He Xiaoman was a man in his forties, with swarthy stubble marks on his temples and lips. If he had a beard, he would definitely have sideburns and whiskers.

The man smiled heartily: "Don't worry, Sister Zhaodi, no matter what happens, as long as you are willing to come to me, Huo Laosan, I will take care of it for you."

It's not hard to find a cook, but it's really hard to find someone who's as good as a fat cook who puts food first.

At least He Xiaoman couldn't find it no matter how hard he thought.

She could provide him with at most ten bowls of noodles, and he could only provide them until she left. After all, He Xiaoman's cooking skills were definitely at the disaster level of hell.

The shipping company has always been managed by Huo Chen, the third Huo in front of me. Although Jing Heng has been claiming to be managing all the Wang family's business these years, the shipping company is equivalent to the waterway's escort agency. If you want to be successful, you must be black and white and have connections in all three religions and nine circles.

That's fine, it's definitely not just a matter of finding a group of rough men and killing them with swords, guns, swords and halberds.

Huo Laosan is a well-known figure in the world, and he is well-off with the government. What troubles Jing Heng the most is that this person cannot be bribed with money and beautiful women, because if it hadn't been for his sudden appearance, Huo Laosan would have been the one that Mr. Wang gave him.

The best son-in-law for my daughter to touch.

Therefore, the shipping company's income did indeed go to Jing Heng in full, but the core power of the shipping company was entirely in the hands of Huo Laosan.

This is the real reason why Wang Zhaodi can still live safely until now.

Unless Jingheng doesn't want the boat to go.

Even if Jing Heng was really willing to abandon the boat and directly kill Wang Zhaodi, he would surely have to face the endless pursuit by Huo Laosan and his group of blood-licking men.

Therefore, Yuan Wenjing and Jing Heng set the tone early on. To get rid of Wang Zhaodi, she must be the one at fault, and Jing Heng and others must be clean and innocent.

He Xiaoman naturally knew what happened before, so he was a little embarrassed when facing the scorching gaze of Huo Chen, a rough man.

Huo Chen never married.

"There are benefactors, and there are enemies too. It's not easy for a woman to go sailing every day without even being able to get home. It's not easy for a woman. It's okay. I'd better not harm others."

This is what Huo Laosan said to the matchmaker after Wang Zhaodi recruited his wife.

Well, so Wang Zhaodi turns out to be the one who can cause harm.

In fact, He Xiaoman could vaguely sense that this man secretly liked Wang Zhaodi.

When they were young, Mr. Wang would occasionally take Wang Zhaodi with him when he went boating, so the two of them grew up as childhood sweethearts. Maybe it was because they grew up in the grass and were accustomed to rough guys, so they always turned against things when they were extreme, and they had a yearning for a weak scholar like Jing Heng.

After all, the poet said, there is no scenery nearby.

There may be no love close by.

"Third brother, you have to be more careful in the boating business recently." He Xiaoman told Huo Chen exactly what he wanted to do about food first. Since he failed to overthrow Wang Zhaodi with food first, Yuan Wenjing's next step would be either the boating business or the study.

The shipping company probably either sabotaged the ship or destroyed the cargo. As for the study, the most likely thing was to put a book with anti-poetry in it and then be discovered.

Wang Zhaodi ran the study single-handedly, just because her son liked reading. In this regard, the son really followed his mother.

Therefore, the person who has been PUAed for a long time is not only Wang Zhaodi himself, but also another victim named Wang Chuanzong.

In his heart, the young man envied and liked the gentle temperament of the scholar, but at the same time he was despised as a merchant who was not worthy of his noble status.

In fact, regarding that youthful relationship that has died young, rather than saying that Wang Chuanzong is deeply in love with Yuan Qingqing, it is better to say that he likes the "poetry and literary spirit" unique to scholars in the three Yuan brothers and sisters. It is a pity that

The boy's love was too superficial, and like Wang Zhaodi, he didn't have the good sense to see through the disguise and look at the true nature.

He Xiaoman believed that it was definitely just an accident that Wang Zhaodi saved Jing Heng and fell in love with him in the first place. What led to the tragedy was that the Wang family had no wealth but no one to protect it, which allowed them to grow the ambitions of a bunch of white-eyed wolves.

Huo Chen bared his teeth and said coldly: "Oh, if you dare to play tricks under the nose of Mr. Huo... I, Mr. Huo, they are not far from death. Sister Zhaodi, you don't have to worry about the shipyard. Don't worry, it will definitely not happen.

There will be problems."

According to the law of "g must be poked", according to Mr. Huo's words, He Xiaoman felt that if there was no accident, there would be an accident at the shipyard soon.

It seems that I have to keep an eye on the boat line.

But having said that, Mr. Huo's efficiency is indeed worthy of praise. As soon as it got dark in the evening, the cook was sent over by Huo Chen. When he was trying the dishes at Wang's house, He Xiaoman ordered some stir-fried stir-fry dishes that were very exciting.

Made it, it tastes really good.

The chef decided on this.

The news brought by Zhuye was similar to what He Xiaoman expected.

The accuser, the Lu family, and the three tainted witnesses all killed them. Seeing that Wang Zhaodi was the only one in the Wang family, and Jing Heng was an honest and gentle scholar, although there was a magistrate, when the new official took office, he would not be too biased towards the Wang family.

Anyway, it makes sense.

As for the work, the traces of favoritism and fraud have been completely wiped out. At most, it is just an errand that did not do its best.

He Xiaoman had already guessed that he just paid some money to give perjury.

Neither the left nor right thought that this case could bring down Yuan Wenjing, but He Xiaoman was not disappointed.
