Chapter 67 Eating Stewed Meat and Listening in the Kitchen

While taking a bath, Mou Biao told Wu Yiniang the whole story of the case from beginning to end. After hearing this, Wu Yiniang's eyes turned red, and she wiped the tears off her face with a handkerchief. Mou Biao looked at his relatives in surprise. mother,

"Auntie, what are you doing?"

Fifth Aunt sighed,

"The Yao family is also pitiful. This is full of children and grandchildren, and she has to endure her husband entering the flower bushes when he is old. Even if he really crosses the bright road and carries him in the door, it's fine. In the future, he will have children and daughters, and he will always be called. She sounded like a mother, but this...what's going on..."

After saying that, he wiped away his tears and said,

"She killed the woman and put herself in prison. After Qiu Hou put her on the execution ground, her head fell off suddenly. If the man has a good conscience, he can burn more paper money every Qingming, that's all. If he has a bad conscience ...I'm afraid that a handful of loess will be blown by wind and rain, and it won't be long before the grass will be luxuriant!"

Mou Biao rolled his eyes when he heard that,

"Auntie, it's not as miserable as you said. The Lai family has three sons. Even if Lai Dongsheng refuses to sacrifice to his wife, don't the sons care?"

Auntie is afraid that she has read too many books if they are sold outside!

Fifth Aunt gave her son a blank look,
"What do you know?"

She is because the Yao family is worthless, why bother?
They are old husbands and wives, they have children and grandchildren, and they just need to watch over the children and live a good life. Why bother to kill people because of a man, but because he lost his head, maybe this man will turn around and marry another one. When you see the newcomer laughing, but see the old one crying, you will be completely forgotten!
Mou Biao sneered, secretly said,

"Women are just looking for trouble for nothing, sentimental!"

Thinking of this, my heart suddenly moved,
"The first Si Lian heard that the real culprit was indeed the Yao family, and they also looked so sad. It seems that they probably thought the same as what my aunt thought..."

He buried his head in the water, spitting bubbles and thinking to himself,
"Killing for life is justified, why bother to sympathize with the murderer, you are really asking for trouble!"

He thought again,
"Uh... she's a little girl, it's reasonable to be kind and soft-hearted..."

This person is secretly planning in his heart, when Chun'er invites her to go out of the city to have fun, just forget about it.
"Snapped……"

Just thinking about it, the back of the neck was patted by the fifth aunt,
"Good young master, come out quickly, Madam has already sent someone to call..."

"Gollum..."

A string of bubbles emerged from the tub, and Mou Biao lifted his head out of the water,

"Mou Long and Mou Hu came in to serve..."

The two brothers heard this from outside, and hurriedly ran in, waited for Mou Biao to wipe his body clean and changed his clothes, and then the mother and son went to the front hall.

Mou Biao was busy outside all night, so he ate a bowl of noodles in the morning. At this time, his chest was already hungry and his back was on his back. The wind, the left and right are nothing but the family's short-sightedness, the wind and the snow, how can a man get entangled in these trivial matters, but the second brother-in-law in the future will talk and laugh with the female family members, and they will not shy away from talking and laughing.

After a meal, Mrs. Liu sent the young couple to the yard to have a snack,

"When March arrives, you won't be able to meet each other. Let's talk more now!"

Mrs. Liu teased her daughter and future son-in-law with a smile, everyone burst into laughter, their cheeks were flushed, and they went to the garden one after the other.

Mou Biao had already yawned profusely at this time, and after saluting with everyone, he went back to sleep.

He fell into a deep sleep this time, and did not wake up until the sky was dark and he turned on the lamp. Mou Hu came in and said,
"Master, Madam called someone to invite someone to invite you for dinner. Fifth Auntie saw that Master was still sleeping, so she came back for you, saying that she would use it in her yard when you woke up."

Mou Biao nodded, stood up and washed his face, and stretched his fists and feet in the yard. At this time, he felt hungry and his stomach was rumbling.

"What is there to eat on our small stove?"

He asked Mou Long, and Mou Long thought for a while and replied,

"Fifth Yiniang prepared vinegar fish and roast duck..."

Mou Biao frowned,

"No meat?"

The meat he was talking about was the fat, big, oily big pork,
Mou Long has followed him for many years, and knowing that he has no pleasure in meat, he replied,
"Fifth Yiniang said that you slept a lot, I'm afraid you don't want to eat big meat..."

Mou Biao was dissatisfied,
"Don't listen to my aunt's nonsense, my young master is hungry!"

He is so hungry that he can eat a whole pig now, why can't he eat meat?

After thinking about it, I asked,
"What did you eat before today?"

This Mou Hu knows, and should say,
"I went to look at the chef in front, there is a little stew today..."

Mou Biao was overjoyed,

"Come on, let's go look for meat from the chef in front!"

Immediately, he led the two servants to the chef in the front courtyard, and the servants who came all the way to see him came up to salute,

"Master Eighth..."

"Master Eighth..."

Mou Biao nodded. At this time, he was so hungry that he was so hungry that he didn't have the patience to talk to them. He led the two servants to bury their heads in a rampage in the mansion and killed the chef. and he came up to salute,
"Master Eighth..."

"Is there any meat left?"

When Mou Biao and his two servants entered the kitchen, it was like bandits entering a village to rob. Once they entered, the three of them dispersed, lifting the lids and serving pots, looking here and there, the cook hurriedly said,
"There is still some meat left on the stove, just wait, I'll warm it up for you..."

Mou Biao nodded, and stood guard in the kitchen to see that the cook had cooked a few small dishes, and then put the earthen pot containing stewed meat on the fire,

"Master Eighth, the fire in the kitchen is choking, you should wait outside!"

Mou Biao refused, and just waited here with two young men, watching the earthen pot on the fire slowly emit white smoke, the lid flapped and began to dance happily, and the smell of meat slowly overflowed. the entire kitchen,

"are you done?"

Mou Biao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked the cook, who nodded and smiled,
"Alright! Alright, eighth young master, why don't you move to the side hall and bring the smaller one over to you?"

Mou Biao shook his head,

"No need, we'll eat here..."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to the small hall on the side. This is the place where the servants of the kitchen usually eat. There are tables, chairs and other things in it. Mou Biao sat down and waited for the cook to serve. The cook smiled wryly. ,
"This is where our servants eat, but I dare not let you use it here. If Madam finds out, you will be punished!"

Mou Biao waved his hand, nonchalantly saying,

"It's just a meal, I want to use it here, why would mother punish you, I will take care of it if there is something to do, and serve it quickly!"

The cook had no choice but to bring up all the food. Mou Biao fell asleep, and he didn't know where his lunch had gone. , shake off the cheeks, eat with big mouthfuls, eat meat with big mouthfuls,
"Master, please slow down..."

Mou Hu who was on the side hurriedly served matsutake chicken soup for him, and Mou Biao took his hand, took a sip of the soup, and began to chop the rice vigorously again.

He was eating inside, when someone outside said crisply,

"Cook off, the pot in our yard burned out for some reason today, Miss asked me to borrow one from the chef..."

Mou Biao was very familiar with that voice, it should be Guier, the maid next to Mou Xiujuan, and Cook Guan was cleaning up the kitchen, and he replied,

"Even if the second lady wants to use it, she can borrow it, but please ask Sister Gui'er to send it back tomorrow. If you don't care about checking the pots and bowls, you will ask me for questioning!"

Guier replied,

"It's too late today, the storeroom is locked, our young lady thought about alarming the woman guarding the storeroom, and going to report to Madam, why not borrow a ready-made one from you and return it tomorrow..."

Cook Guan nodded, then turned the pot and bowl,

"How about this?"

Guier looked at it and said,
"It's too big, our second lady is only used to cook Yuanxiao..."

Cook Guan nodded and went to look for someone else, asking casually,
"It's so late, Second Miss wants to eat Yuanxiao, so she can cook it at the chef's place, why bother to cook it at the little chef's place?"

Guier covered her mouth and smiled when she heard this,

"This Lantern Festival is not something you can do. This is what our young lady has learned from the young lady for a long time!"

Cook Guan became curious,
"What kind of Lantern Festival can we not do, and the second lady has to learn from the eldest lady?"

Guier replied,

"On the Lantern Festival ahead, our lady ate a bowl of Yuanxiao outside. It was very delicious. Later, the lady regretted not asking the stall owner how to make the Lantern Festival. Unexpectedly, the eldest lady found the recipe from somewhere and learned it by herself. I taught it to our second lady... Now in this mansion, only the two young ladies can do it!"

Cook Guan laughed when he heard that,
"It seems that there is a secret method for making Lantern Festival?"

Guier nodded heavily,

"Isn't it?"

Cook Guan handed her another one,

"Is this possible?"

"This makes..."

Guier took it over and said with a smile,
"I'm going back. Before Master Ke leaves, I have to hurry up and send it over..."

She turned around and left, Cook Guan realized what she meant, and smiled,
"It turns out that I want to show my virtuousness in front of my new uncle!"

Mou Biao, who was eating inside, heard it clearly, and frowned.

"Sister, what are you doing here?"

I spent seventy taels of silver to buy the method of making Lantern Festival, then turned around and taught it to my second sister, what is she planning to do?
In order to please the second sister, what did she do to please the second sister?
If it was for the sake of sisterhood, why did she not teach so many sisters, but only one second sister?
Besides, the second sister is about to get married, so it's too late to please her now. If she wants to please the second sister, she might as well please her mother, please her mother, and let her choose a good marriage for her, isn't it the right thing to do?

Mou Biao frowned, trying to recall what he experienced in the previous life. He was a man, and he rarely cared about the affairs of the back house. The deepest memory was the death of his aunt, and the second was the death of his eldest sister. .

This life seems to be very different from the previous life, and I don’t know if the family affairs will remain the same. In the previous life, the eldest sister’s marriage will end up like that. He taught her a lifetime through marriage!
