Chapter 270 Hot and Sour Rice Noodles (4)

Why are you crying? She didn't know why, but when she thought of that dignified and beautiful face in her dream, her heart twitched for no reason, as if a hand had grabbed her heart and squeezed it hard!

After something happened to the Wen family, Mrs. Wen, who was beautiful in her original memory, didn't even have time to say a word to her before she was taken away along with the other female members of the Wen family.

The night I arrived in Yeting, I had a high fever all night long. When I woke up the next day, I heard that all the female members of the Wen family had committed suicide!

Mrs. Wen is beautiful and gentle on the outside, but soft on the outside and strong on the inside. Not everyone is like Wen Xiutang. Mrs. Wen has a strong temper, how can she endure such humiliation? It’s not surprising that he would hang himself!

Looking at her fingers that were wrapped in thick gauze, Wen Mingtang frowned subconsciously: It was probably because the girl in that sect was as beautiful, gentle and dignified as Mrs. Wen, which reminded her of that Mrs. Wen.

The familiar aroma of scallion oil floated out from the public kitchen. Tangyuan took advantage of the break in the busy work and came out to take a look. He saw Wen Mingtang staring at her wrapped fingers and hurriedly walked over to comfort her and said: " Don’t worry, Master Wen! No muscles or bones are injured, it’s just a skin injury, it’ll be fine in a few days!”

Wen Mingtang raised his head and thanked the glutinous rice balls that were looking at him with concern. Smelling the familiar scent of scallion oil, he stood up with a smile and said, "In this case, I will be a hands-off shopkeeper these days, come and taste the glutinous rice balls." Ah Bing’s craftsmanship is amazing!”

…

The morning meal was scallion noodles, the lunch was the three-juice stew pot that I had eaten yesterday, and the evening meal was the pickled fish that I had made earlier.

The three meals of the day were still cooked well, but... A Bing and Tang Yuan, who looked serious after glancing at the table, had been busy for a day, and Liu Yuan, who had just come back to eat the evening meal, picked up the evening meal plate and asked the two of them: " Where is Master Wen? Did he take leave?"

Didn't Master Wen eat hot and sour noodles with Lin Shaoqing last night? Why haven't you seen anyone today?

Tangyuan said: "Master Wen's finger was cut by a knife, so he took leave and went out!"

Liu Yuan heard this and asked casually: "Why did you ask for leave?"

I just asked casually, not caring whether Tangyuan would really answer him, but I didn't expect that Tangyuan would reply to him seriously after hearing this: "In a few days, I heard Master Wen say that Laba is the birthday of her mother, Mrs. Wen. ! She was afraid that she would be too busy on the day of Laba, so she took advantage of today to go see Mrs. Wen in advance!"

…

…

"Sister Mingtang!"

Before the people arrive, the sound comes first.

Wen Mingtang raised his head and looked at Xunzhou, who was running over carrying the sacrificial objects.

Wen Mingtang hasn't seen Xunzhou for quite some time since he was targeted by Huang Shizhong. He heard that Huang Shizhong was keeping an eye on this "future son-in-law" so closely that Xunzhou didn't even have the time to come to Dali Temple's public kitchen to have a meal. .

Wen Mingtang called out "Senior Brother Xun" and looked at the pretty young lady behind Xunzhou who was holding two candles.

He probably noticed Wen Mingtang's gaze from a distance. When he got closer, Xunzhou hurriedly explained: "This is Miss Huang San. If I hadn't come out with Miss Huang San, I'm afraid that Huang Shizhong would have to follow me today." There are two of them!”

The pretty Miss Huang San had exactly the same attitude towards Xunzhou's "fear of being misunderstood", and hurriedly said to Wen Mingtang: "You must be the junior sister named Xun! Don't worry, I have nothing to do with him, it's all me That dad who is worried about getting married is so worried about me, if we hadn't come out together, my dad who was the one who pulled the strings might not have let her go!"

Wen Mingtang looked at the two people in front of him who were "extremely shy", and said in silence, "I have nothing to do with Senior Brother Xun, he was just my father's student back then!"

Miss Huang San was startled when she heard this. When she came to her senses, she glanced at Xunzhou beside her, flattened her mouth, and couldn't help laughing twice: "Then you are so useless! People are not ugly. It’s not that he has no talent, but no little lady likes him, tsk tsk, how pitiful he is!”

Xunzhou glanced at her without batting an eyelid: "We are each other, isn't it the same with Miss Huang San?"

It's just half a pound, as if someone likes Miss Huang San!

Upon hearing this, Miss Huang San immediately snorted coldly and said: "As a young lady, you should do something in your life, instead of just sticking to the boudoir! If my father hadn't been messing around all the time, I would have killed the little girl named Yang a long time ago. The villain behind Rentong has been caught!"

Not to be outdone, Xunzhou immediately patted his chest and said, "If I hadn't been pulled in by Huang Shizhong, I would have infiltrated among the murderers by now, and I might have found all the important evidence!"

Both of them looked extremely regretful that Huang Shizhong jumped out to disrupt the situation.

Wen Mingtang looked at the two people with the same expressions on their faces and shook his head. Thinking about Mrs. Wen, his mood was inevitably a little low. He did not say anything, but said "Let's go!" before turning around and leading the way.

The Wen family was convicted and the female family members committed suicide.

Although no one paid attention to the female members of the Wen family at the time, afterward, Wen Mingtang used Zhao Sishan and asked Zhang Caimai to find out the "whereabouts" of the female members of the Wen family, and spent a lot of money to get it from the jiaofang officials who collected the bodies. Their corpses were "bought" and reburied.

The burial place was in a cemetery outside the city. The cemetery was a bit remote. Wen Mingtang stepped forward and pulled out some weeds, wiped the tombstone, placed incense and other items for sacrifice, then walked aside and waited for the incense and candles to burn out. .

After watching Wen Mingtang finish all this, he calmly walked aside and waited!

Xunzhou, who had prepared a lot of words, seemed to have something blocked in his throat. He looked at Wen Mingtang and murmured: "Sister Mingtang..."

"Huh?" Wen Mingtang said "Hmm", looked up at Xunzhou, and said, "Senior Brother Xun, just do what you want, don't pay attention to me." He paused and took two steps to the side, "But you want me to stay out of the way." ?”

Xunzhou: "..." The person he has the most contact with is his teacher, not his wife. How much can he say to Mrs. Wen? However, Wen Mingtang's reaction was really beyond his expectation!

Sister Mingtang, who has been raised in the back house all year round, had the best relationship with her teacher and mother-in-law when she was young! I originally thought that sister Mingtang would have a lot to say to the master's wife, but unexpectedly, the girl didn't say a word and walked to the side, looking at the sacrifice as if it was a routine!

Meeting Xunzhou's gaze, as if she understood what he meant, Wen Mingtang spread his hands and explained: "I have nothing to say, but...Senior Brother Xun, I do have something to ask you!"

When Xunzhou heard this, he quickly looked at Wen Mingtang.

Wen Mingtang thought for a while and said, "Do you know my mother's birthday?"

Yesterday's dream was inexplicable. Maybe I was thinking about it during the day and dreaming about it at night. After seeing what happened to the daughter of the clan, I got wildly imaginative! But thinking of that face looking towards her, Wen Mingtang always felt inexplicably uneasy for some reason!

Xunzhou: "..." He is the teacher's student and a foreign boy. How could he know such things as his wife's birth date?

However, when he met Wen Mingtang's gaze, Xunzhou thought for a moment and said, "I can ask around. Although the direct branch of my wife's family is gone, the side branch is still there. It's not impossible to ask about it!"
