Chapter 427 eat a pot
After the people from Jingzhao Mansion came to handle the follow-up, they sent someone to the Princess Mansion to report the news. It was already noon.
There was a long queue in front of the Tuanzi store. I don’t know when it had dispersed. Chi Shi patted the dust on his body and the bamboo rice on his waist. It had already become cold. The rice inside became hard and looked a little sharp.
Sun Sanniang looked at the five large basins neatly placed in the shop, and the water used to cook dumplings on the small stall outside. I don’t know when it had already been boiled. A kind-hearted person who passed by took the pot down and placed it on the ground.
"Three of the four people were captured, and I was left alone, like a joke. There was no male in my family, and my parents have raised me as a man since I was a child. Those who are willing to be sons-in-law are either missing arms and legs or are like leprosy."
She said, smiling with some nostalgia, "At that time, I was selling melons on the roadside. I was not boasting, but I was a good farmer, and the melons I planted were three points better than others. It was very hot that day, and the cicadas kept shouting noisy, and a gorgeous carriage parked on the side of the road."
"Akiname was pushed down like this. The in charge said that he offended the noble man and gave it to me in the future. He would use it as a cow or a horse. He would use it as much as he wanted. He would use it as much as he wanted. He would use it as much as he wanted."
"Where are such beautiful cows and horses in this world? He didn't want to be a mud-legged person, so I brought him to the capital... I'm simply a fool."
Chi Shi listened and nodded seriously, "Well, he is indeed a fool."
Sun Sanniang couldn't believe her ears, "What?"
Generally, in this situation, people should not say: If you are not stupid, you will naturally fall into the vortex of love...
Seeing that she didn't hear it clearly, Chi Shi repeated, "Since you already know that you are a fool, then beware of yourself in the future and don't be fooled even more stupid. But fools have a good fortune. Congratulations on throwing away three titans with ulterior motives at once."
"It seems that you are really stupid, you can't even tell the difference!"
Chi Shi said, swaying his sleeves, Zhou Xian and others heading towards a nearby restaurant.
I didn’t have time to eat a few bites of the dumplings in the morning, and the bamboo tube rice became cold again. Now it was so hungry that my chest was pressed against my back.
Sun Sanniang stayed there, a little dumbfounded. She pounded her head, looked at the cooked dumpling in the pot, wiped her hands, "I'm starving to death! I can't figure it out, I can't sell it anymore, I won't eat it anymore!"
As she said, she added the soup, put the pot on the small stove, pulled a stool, and sat there and started eating. "I'm afraid I'm not really a fool. I've been making dumplings for so long, and I haven't been willing to open my stomach and eat them!"
After saying that, he bit the ball hard and ate it on his own regardless of the eyes of the people around him.
Zhou Xian glanced at Chi Shi's slightly raised mouth and laughed, "Whether it is spring, summer, autumn and winter, or poverty and wealth, you are the only one who has always been the same."
"No, I have never been poor. How do you know how I looked when I was poor?" Chi Shi said dissatisfied.
Zhou Xian was speechless.
"You didn't eat the bamboo rice in the morning. Now I've invited you to eat sheep scorpion to replenish it. This old Tanji's sheep scorpion is so amazing. Autumn and winter are the best time to warm and replenish it. After your mother left, I saw that you had lost a lot of weight."
Zhou Xian said, stretched out his hand and snatched it in front of Jiule, setting up a bead curtain for Chi Shi.
As soon as I entered the restaurant, a strong smell of mutton came towards me, making people feel drooling.
Zhou Xian was obviously a regular customer here. When the shopkeeper saw it, he bent over and came over, "Your Highness hasn't been here for a long time. There is also an elegant room. Can Chi Jun eat spicy food?"
Chi Shi nodded, "Put more."
The shopkeeper smiled, and personally led the two of them upstairs into the elegant room, brewed tea and snacks for them, and then left.
Chi Shi picked up a piece of osmanthus sugar cake, stuffed it into his mouth, and looked down while eating. In this restaurant, you could just see the scene of the dumpling shop below.
"Xue Lingxian is like the fallen leaves in the capital in this autumn, everywhere," Chi Shi said lightly.
Zhou Xian narrowed his eyes, took out some jerky from the small bag around his waist, and placed it in a small empty plate beside him, "I checked her because she seemed to pay special attention to us."
Chi Shi paused, withdrew his gaze, and looked at Zhou Xian inquiringly.
Zhou Xian's voice lowered a little, "The Xue family's loyal generations. Xue Lingxian's father was a soldier under General Li. After General Li was executed, Xue Lingxian's father Xue Heng was also demoted and went to the place to be the guard."
"After the Shen family collapsed, the position of the Imperial Army was short of. Because there were no wars for many years, it was difficult for military generals to be promoted. Therefore, there were not many people in the court who were qualified for this position."
"Brother saw that he was loyal and brave, so he promoted him to come up."
Chi Shi frowned when he heard it.
Zhou Xian looked at her and sighed, "It seems that you have the same concerns as me. The position of the Imperial Commander is very important. Xue Lingxian married to the Guan family. If they had a strange intention, then this promotion would be a hidden danger."
"So even if Xue Lingxian doesn't jump out of this way, I'll still check her."
Chi Shi picked up a piece of jerky meat and chewed it. A knock on the door came from the door.
The shopkeeper commanded the man and took the copper pot with fire and placed it on the table. The sheep and scorpions inside had been cooked and exuded a tempting smell.
Without saying a word, he set up a table of dishes again, and then said with a smile, "Your Highness and the Coward of Chi are eating slowly. After a while, they are also honey melons, which were transported from the Western Regions just now, are very crisp and sweet."
Zhou Xian nodded, and the shopkeeper stepped back silently without saying anything.
Chi Shi looked at him and couldn't help but look at him more. This shopkeeper was a very smart person.
With the sheep scorpion, Chi Shi put the dried meat on his back, rolled up his sleeves and started eating. "It seems that there is no problem with the Xue family at the moment, otherwise you wouldn't let Xue Heng sit in that position now."
Zhou Xian nodded softly, poured wine for Chi Shi, and said, "Xue Lingxian is a scattered person, and this is true from the boudoir. I thought she was a ghost student before, because I found out that when she was in the border, she wrote a book for the opera troupe there, as well as teahouses and restaurants."
"As for the bookstore where the ghosts were printed, it was Xue Lingxian's grandfather's house. She had already handed over the conversation before, and wanted to investigate the case between us and the scholar. I rejected it."
Zhou Xian said, pausing, "But Tong Xiao suffered this crime. I think that it is impossible to get rid of the matter of Guan Yi's choice of a princess. Unfortunately, even if we found out that the princess deliberately let Tong Xiao go out, there was no way to be punished."
