The entire village shakes their heads at Zhuang Qingning - an orphaned girl who, after recovering from illness, stubbornly registers as a female household head instead of living with her uncle.
...Chapter 343 Rare in the World
Considering that today was Fan Wenxuan's first day to teach and that he would stay at home for lunch, Zhuang Qingning asked Zhuang Mingli to have lunch with him at noon and asked him to go back and tell He Shi.
Then he went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Fan Wenxuan looked into the yard, drinking a cup of fragrant tea while watching Zhuang Qingsui playing with dogtail grass and making snowballs.
There is green shade of trees above my head, cute and well-behaved students beside me, and there will be delicious food to eat later. This life is really - comfortable!
Fan Wenxuan felt more and more that coming here to teach Zhuang Qingsui was the best thing to do.
I really have to say that even that cruel-hearted Chu Jinnian will do something good one day.
Before Fan Wenxuan could finish expressing his feelings, Zhuang Mingli came back and Zhuang Qingning had already prepared lunch.
Because Zhuang Qingsui and Zhuang Mingli couldn't eat spicy food, Zhuang Qingning made two bowls of clear soup noodles, while she and Fan Wenxuan made two bowls of red, oily, and spicy noodles with plenty of ingredients.
Fan Wenxuan was already salivating at the sight of the spicy and sour noodles with their rich color and aroma. He did not even bother with the proper courtesy as a guest and just picked up the bowl and started eating.
Sour, spicy, fragrant...
If we have to put these words together, we can probably only use two words to describe it, and that is delicious.
Fan Wenxuan felt as if all the pores in his body were opened, and he felt extremely refreshed. The strong sour and spicy taste in his mouth, as well as the slight beads of sweat on his forehead and back when he ate such spicy food in the hot weather, made him feel extremely comfortable.
The hot and sour noodles are delicious, but the key is the round cake with a crispy outer skin and fragrant inner filling. You can't see the meat, but every bite is full of meaty flavor. Paired with the strong spicy and sour noodles, it's like red flowers and green leaves, indescribably harmonious and natural.
In short, Fan Wenxuan felt that this was the most delicious meal he had had since leaving the capital and arriving here.
Comfortable!
"What is the name of this cake? Why is it so delicious?" Fan Wenxuan couldn't help but ask.
When he was in the capital, he had eaten the delicacies in the streets and alleys of the capital, but he had never eaten such a cake.
"It's called Guokui." Zhuang Qingning replied with a smile, "It's a snack from the Bashu area along with the hot and sour noodles. I happened to hear someone who had been to Shu talking about the deliciousness of Guokui with hot and sour noodles, so I tried making it according to what he said, and it tasted really good."
Zhuang Qingning told a lie casually.
"It turns out to be a pot cake." Fan Wenxuan stared at the crispy cake in his hand for a long time and praised, "The name is quite unique, and the taste is also very good."
Fan Wenxuan was satisfied when he left.
But on the way back, he was thinking about a very important question all the way...
That means he must find a way to marry Zhuang Qingning to one of his outstanding students, so that as a teacher he can eat with her openly at any time.
As for the question of whether I can get a free meal as Mr. Zhuang Qingsui now...
Yes, it is ok now.
But Zhuang Qingning will get married in the future. Even if he is her sister's teacher, he can't go to Zhuang Qingning's in-laws' house to eat and drink for free, right? So, he has to choose a good in-law family! Fan Wenxuan stroked his beard and pondered this issue carefully. ——The whole village became lively again.
It was as lively as waking up in the morning, and the reason for the liveliness was the same as waking up in the morning, because of Zhuang Ruman's family.
The atmosphere was lively not because the Kong family had come to welcome the bride, nor because Zhuang Ruman's family had come to send the bride off, but because a group of people came to Zhuang Ruman's family.
People in the yamen.
They wanted to take Zhuang Ruman and Song away and hold them accountable for selling their daughter to the Kong family as a silver wedding arrangement.
According to the laws of the time, silver weddings were expressly prohibited. If anyone violated the law, the punishment would depend on the circumstances. If it was a minor offense, the offender would be beaten with dozens of boards. If it was a serious offense, the offender would be forced to do hard labor.
Zhuang Ruman was so frightened that his face turned pale. He sat on the ground and cried and howled, saying that this was a misunderstanding. He then went back to the house to look for silver and wine to bribe the yamen runners. He also brought up the Kong family to scare the yamen runners...
After trying all the methods and seeing that the yamen runners remained unmoved, they finally pointed at Song and started shouting.
"Brother Yachao, I know nothing about this matter. It's all her fault, it's all Song's fault. She did this without telling me and said that she was just looking for a good marriage for her daughter. I believed what this woman said and didn't suspect anything else..."
"It's all her fault, it's all this bitch, if you want to arrest someone, arrest her, don't arrest me..."
The yamen runner looked at Zhuang Ruman with disdain on his face.
They have seen bad guys, they have seen evil guys, they have also seen ruffians and scoundrels, and they have seen a lot of them.
But it is rare in the world to find someone like Zhuang Ruman, who can possess both evil and roguery and integrate them so well.
You have to accept it.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
But even though they were feeling emotional, the yamen runners were least afraid of this kind of people, so they simply didn't waste any time talking to Zhuang Ruman. They just stuffed a cloth strip in his hand and took him away.
Song and Zhuang Qinghe were also taken back for questioning.
After the yamen runner left, the villagers began to talk about it again.
"The runners came quickly. They took everyone away in just half a day."
"Isn't it? Hey, is this the official you reported to, Sister Zhao?"
"Report to the police?" Zhao pouted. "You've seen me all day, washing and taking care of the kids at home. How could I have the time to go to the county government?"
"Yes, what's going on? How did the county government know about this?"
"Why else? Someone must have been fed up and reported the matter to the county government. There are always people who can't stand it. This is not surprising. The strange thing is that we don't know what's going on here. Sister Zhao, how do you know that Zhuang Qinghe is going to be married off in a silver wedding?"
"That's right. Normally, your ears aren't that sharp. Normally, you're the last to know about something. How come you're so sharp this time and you're the first to know?"
"Now that Zhuang Ruman has been taken away, I might as well not hide it from you. Someone told me about this!" Zhao said.
"who?"
"You may not believe it if I tell you!" Zhao curled her lips.
"Who is it?" Seeing Zhao's mysterious look, everyone became more and more curious.
"Zhuang Yuanzhong, the youngest son of Zhuang Ruman's family!" Zhao slapped her thigh and said, "Zhuang Yuanzhong, this kid, I really underestimated him on weekdays, thinking that he was just like Zhuang Ruman, with a black heart. His cunning appearance on weekdays is just like Zhuang Ruman."
