Tao Hongying got the starch, so she rushed into the kitchen and started thinking about new dishes with Shui Yun.
When it was ready, she happily brought half a bowl into the house and urged her mother-in-law to try it, like a child anxious to offer her treasure, "Mom, try the cherry meat I made. The sweet and sour taste is particularly delicious! "
Old Mrs. Li was so coaxed by her daughter-in-law that she beamed and didn't even wait for her to reply.
Jiayin sniffed the aroma and sat up. When she saw her mother and grandma eating secretly, she immediately crawled over and squeezed into her grandma's arms. She closed her eyes and opened her mouth...
Mrs. Li and Tao Hongying were attracted by Jiayin's appearance. My stomach hurts from laughing so funny.
They were really defeated by this greedy fat girl!
When Tao Hongying was about to throw a wet towel to her daughter to wake up, two soldiers came back.
When Mrs. Li heard that her eldest son wanted Gong Yunshu to recognize the token, she got up and went next door.
Seeing the excitement, Jiayin also opened his eyes and quickly got down to the ground. He picked up half a bowl of cherry meat and ate it as he walked.
Tao Hongying was afraid that her daughter would be filled with cold wind when she went out, so she stopped the good news and said, "Fu Niu'er, Mom is too sleepy after getting up early to roast duck, and she can't walk. You can rest with her for a while."
After breakfast, Mr. Hou returned to the camp. , Tao Hongying was thinking about it. Most of her family members had eaten roast duck, so she left the Marquis behind.
So, she got up in the middle of the night and baked three more, steamed the pancakes, and cut the side dishes.
At breakfast, it was served with millet porridge, and the Marquis and his family shared one piece.
The remaining two, along with pancakes and side dishes, were packed into food boxes, handed over to the soldiers, and taken to the dock camp.
In fact, she wasn't very tired or sleepy at the moment, but when dealing with a daughter, the bitter trick was the best to use.
Sure enough, Jiayin immediately climbed onto the kang, hugged the pillow, pulled the quilt, and made her mother lie down. Then she sat next to her mother, holding a small bowl and eating happily.
Tao Hongying stretched out her hand to half circle her daughter, originally wanting to coax her to talk, but maybe the kang was too hot, so she actually fell asleep...
In the Cui family's wing next door, Gong Yunshu took the bracelet and said with a complicated expression: "This is true It belongs to my grandma. I heard that it was a bracelet my grandpa bought for her when he was admitted to the Juren Examination. She would not take it off even if she took a bath on weekdays."
After a moment of hesitation, she finally asked: "My grandma was raped by her clan uncle. Where is it hidden? Why would she give this bracelet to you?"
The two soldiers looked at Mrs. Li and Mr. Li. They had just briefly talked about it on the way.
Mrs. Li couldn't bear it, but she still said it, "I heard that your grandma was hidden in a wooden house on the mountain. When our family found her in the morning, she had already starved to death..."
Starved to death?
The bracelet in Gong Yunshu's hand fell down, and he remained stunned for a long time without moving.
On the contrary, Gong Yu started to cry. He was still young when the family suffered big changes, and his grandmother had only been beating and scolding him in the past few months. In the past few years, she had always pampered him like a baby.
At this moment, when he heard that Nai was starving to death, he couldn't bear it, so he had to struggle down to the ground to find grandma.
As a result, he was stopped by Gong Yunshu.
Mrs. Li sighed when she saw her trembling lips and tried several times without making a sound.
So, she stood up and said, "Don't be too sad. Some things are your own choices. No one can blame you. This matter still needs to be investigated. If there is any news, I will tell you."
After that, she and Li Laoer Went out with two soldiers.
The two soldiers were about to return to Qingmu Town, and Li Laoer said: "Mom, I also want to go to Qingmu Town. I think the eldest brother is going to close the net. I will go and help him."
Of course, Mrs. Li can't stop them. After all, the person behind this is here for the second child, and he is the protagonist of the plot against him!
Mrs. Li nodded and said, "Go, be careful, and don't worry if you can't find the person behind it. Our family is not afraid of living with our tail between our legs, but nothing will happen to you!"
"Don't worry, Mom, we will go and come back early. "Li Laoer said that he wanted to ride on the same horse with the soldiers.
Coincidentally, at this time, Li Laosi actually ran back from outside with four soldiers. After a few words, he turned around and followed his second brother to Qingmu Town.
At this time, facing the calculations of outsiders, it was time for the brothers to work together...
Li Zhensheng stayed in Qingmu Town for a day, and found out the details of the gangsters and the Gong family, and even determined their locations.
Seeing that his second brother and fourth brother had come over and had enough manpower, he said: "During this period of time, I have been asking about the owner of Siji Ruyi Gambling House. Indeed, he does not have any enmity with our family, and even with the Cui family and the Liu family. And the Marquis has nothing to do with it.
"Furthermore, this owner is also low-key on weekdays. Compared to other casinos, he behaves in a measured manner. Therefore, it must be the steward named Bao who is causing trouble.
"But the dog at home bit someone, and we still need to talk to his owner. Let's arrest the person who should be arrested, and get the evidence that should be obtained. We will try to enter the new capital before the city gate is closed!"
"Okay, Listen to big brother." Neither Li Lao Er nor Li Lao Si had any objections, and they said in unison.
Soon, they split up!
Five or six men from the Gong family, the same people who almost beat Gong Yunshu's sister and brother to death on the street, were all arrested.
Fatty Liu, a gangster who was drinking at home, was also knocked unconscious with a stick.
All these people were put into the carriage, and someone was sent to deliver a message to the two soldiers on the mountain, telling them to watch the wooden house, and everyone hurried into the city.
Li Zhensheng has lived in Xindu for more than ten years. It is not difficult to bring a few people into the city in a carriage.
Even everyone's sabers were stuffed under the carriage and brought in smoothly...
The sun was setting, and the noisy city gradually became quiet due to the lack of pedestrians, but the excitement in some places had just begun.
The Four Seasons Casino opened in the north of the city. It was formerly a tavern. It occupies a small area and has some tables, chairs and benches inside.
Groups of men, old and young, either well-dressed or dirty, no one could distinguish them carefully at the moment. They were all crowded in front of several tables, shouting at their necks, with blue veins popping out on their foreheads.
It's like if they shout harder, the dice can turn according to their wishes!
In the backyard of the casino, there were seven or eight thugs standing guard, holding a full head in their mouths and chatting casually.
Someone asked: "Is the boss coming over tonight? I see the lights are on next door!"
Another person looked a little salivating and laughed softly: "Here he is, the little widow in the alley behind is also here. I'm drinking right now, and I'm afraid it's going to be windy and rainy tonight."
"Bah," the man from before laughed and scolded, "That's called a storm! It's really windy and rainy, and everyone is freezing to death, so why are you playing?"
"Haha, don't worry, don't be afraid, the two of you will feel warm if you hug each other." Someone else added.
It made everyone laugh obscenely.
They were secretly joking, but they didn't know that in the yard next door, their boss did have good wine and food, and a beautiful woman in his arms, but he also had a sharp saber on his neck...
