Chapter 150 Bobo Chicken (3)
Yu Jijiu waved his hand towards Ji Caimai and watched Ji Caimai pick up a bunch of old tofu.
The old tofu full of holes has been soaked in the cold soup for a long time. Every time you take a bite, the salty, spicy and slightly spicy soup will overflow from the holes. The rich and mellow tofu aroma is mixed with the salty, spicy and spicy soup. , although it is a vegetarian dish, it is not inferior to meat dishes at all.
Yu Jijiu on the side obviously prefers meat dishes, so he picked up a skewer of chicken wing tips and put it into his mouth. There are a lot of bones on the wing tip, and each bone is connected with a thread of tender meat. There is not much meat, but this process of "grabbing meat" between the tongue and the bones obviously seems to be quite interesting to Yu Jijiu, and he sighs with emotion at the wing tip. This thing is really suitable for drinking.
Brother Chicken provided a lot of ingredients for this plate of Bobo Chicken. In addition to the wing tip, there is also the center of the wing. There are more bones than the tips of the wings, and the meat on the middle of the wings is obviously more. If you are not satisfied with the meat on the tips of the wings, the meat on the middle of the wings can make you enjoy the tender and smooth taste of the chicken.
In addition, Brother Chicken also provided a pair of "paws". The bones were cut off and the boneless chicken feet were soaked in cold soup. They were taken out by Yu Jijiu in a rather "enchanting" posture. At first glance, they were almost gone. Recognize what this is. After realizing that the enchanting thing was chicken feet, Yu Jijiu sighed repeatedly: Look at that, I think he is good at dancing!
Of course, if you don’t want to dance, you have to satisfy your tongue first! Skipping the step of deboning, the texture of the chicken feet is more prominent. Listening to the sound of chewing the muscles in the mouth, Yu Jijiu is extremely satisfied: If every chicken feet in the world had been removed in advance Bones, that's fine!
One bunch at a time, when the last bunch was taken out of the basin, there was only soup floating with red oil and ripe white sesame seeds in the basin.
Yu Jijiu trembled with lips numbed by the peppercorns, and still drank the osmanthus and sour plum drink sent by Wen Mingtang. He squinted at Ji Caimai, who was sitting there after eating and holding a wolfberry water with a smile, and said: " You people in Dali Temple are so smart! From top to bottom, from that old guy Zhao Mengzhuo to you...that's all! Tell me, what are your plans?"
Ji Caimai said with a smile: "Jijiu is a cheerful person. He doesn't speak secretly. I want Jijiu to help me!"
Wen Mingtang looked at the two people sitting at the food table talking, smiled and shook his head, packed the Bobo Chicken and put it in the food box at hand.
…
…
It was two days later when Ji Caimai came over and told her that the matter had been settled.
To think that after delaying it for so long, it would happen immediately as soon as Yu Jijiu came out? Wen Mingtang was quite surprised: "I don't think it's such a big honor to sacrifice wine. It's bigger than our Mr. Zhao's face..."
The single-round official rank, Jijiu is more than one level lower than Master Zhao!
"The honor of offering wine is indeed not small!" Ji Caimai said, paused, the smile on his face faded a little, and said, "It's Prince Yu who has some trouble."
Where is King Yu?
Wen Mingtang said: "Hasn't that prince been in trouble lately?"
What he said...Ji Caimai couldn't help but feel ashamed. Looking at the girl's serious look, he coughed lightly and said, "This time things have gotten serious, and there has been an incident involving an official's family."
Mentioning the official family members... Wen Mingtang, who was washing rice, stopped what he was doing and asked Ji Caimai: "Which official family members are there?"
Could it be...
It's a pity that things didn't go as planned. Ji Caimai coughed and said: "A head of the Ministry of Household Affairs has been out of Beijing on business recently. He only has a wife and a pair of infant children at home. A few days ago, Didn’t Liu Sicheng come over and say that King Yu and the Prince of Pingxi Xiaojun fought in the street that day..."
It seems that even if Wen Mingtang didn't intervene, something happened to Mrs. Jin.
"I don't know how it spread outside, but they are all spreading rumors about King Tongyu...well, in short, it's Mrs. Jin." Ji Caimai said, "I just passed by the corridor and heard Liu Yuan and the others talking about this matter. It is said that In the morning, they heard Mrs. Jin's children crying, so the maid and her mother-in-law knocked on Mrs. Jin's door, but no one answered. They became anxious and looked for someone to come and break open the house. Then, they saw Jin. Madam threw herself into a trap, and by the time everyone hurriedly put her down, she was already dead!"
Wen Mingtang's expression became serious.
…
In the corridor, Wei Fu was talking about this matter.
"According to the servants of the Jin Mansion, after the incident about King Yu came out, Mrs. Jin shed tears every day. Because Mr. Jin was not in the capital, the servants did not dare to make any more suggestions, so they could only advise Mrs. Jin If you want to talk about something like that, we can wait until Mr. Jin returns to Beijing."
"After these few days, Mrs. Jin's personal maids and mothers-in-law all said that Mrs. Jin's mood has improved a lot. She even laughed yesterday and specially made new clothes for a pair of children. Because they have been here for several days. The maid and mother-in-law were very tired even when they were with Mrs. Jin, and seeing Mrs. Jin smiling happily, they felt relieved and went to rest."
"When it was almost dawn, the pair of infant children didn't know if they were hungry or if they were really mother and son, or mother and daughter. They were crying hysterically. The sound woke up the maid and mother-in-law in the yard next door. , a few people were still wondering how Mrs. Jin made a pair of children cry like this, so they went to the yard next door. After entering the yard, they couldn't knock the door. When they called Mrs. Jin but no one responded, they realized something was wrong and asked someone to bump into her. I opened the house, but as soon as I entered, I saw that Mrs. Jin had gotten a piece of white silk from somewhere, and it was hanging on the beam and making waves..."
Because of Master Jin's relationship, this case was naturally handed over to Dali Temple.
When Wei Fu said this, he couldn't help but sigh: "A pair of children are still young, and they lost their mother so early, eh!"
Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu looked at each other with a solemn expression. They had been fighting wits with the Goguryeo envoys for the past two days, but they did not expect that such a thing would happen in Chang'an City.
"The servants of the Jin Mansion don't believe that Mrs. Jin will have anything to do with King Yu. How about King Yu's reputation, and that a woman from a good family will be related to him?" Wei Fu said, "They don't know why the rumors spread like this. Come on, Mrs. Jin didn’t even say that she had gone out. If she showed her face behind the door, she would be criticized. She must have been forced by the rumors and did not want to implicate Mr. Jin’s two sons and daughters, so she decided to die to prove her innocence. "
It is always sad to see a life lost like this.
"We have already conducted a preliminary investigation. The maids, servants, and mothers-in-law can testify against each other, and the suspicion is basically eliminated." Wei Fu said, "The house is locked from the inside, and it is not something that just anyone can break open easily." Yes. Otherwise, when the door is knocked open in the morning, the maid and the mother-in-law don’t have to look for someone to come and hit it with them."
"I heard that the Jin Mansion was robbed before. Although no valuables were lost, it always made the people living there a little worried." Wei Fu paused and then said, "Master Jin and Mrs. Jin asked craftsmen to reinforce the doors and windows of their houses. However, once it is destroyed, it will definitely make a lot of noise, and some people who sleep lightly can always hear the sound. But all night long, the yard was quiet, and there was no sign of intrusion by outsiders. .At present, it seems that Mrs. Jin..."
At this point, Wei Fu's voice was a little harsh: "Mrs. Jin must have committed suicide."
