"Auntie, excuse me, is there a place around here that sells braised food?"
The young man asked politely, "I heard that she usually takes care of a small child and a dog."
Not to mention this market, Fang Yan is the only one running a braised food stall.
Just from the young man's last sentence, Aunt Zhu knew who he was looking for. "You're looking for Xiao Fang?"
"Yes, yes, yes, that's exactly who we're looking for, Xiao Fang." Old Man Wei came up from behind and nodded hurriedly.
Because Fang Yan had just had an accident, Aunt Zhu was worried that they were also there to cause trouble, so she asked warily, "What do you want with Xiao Fang?"
"Well, we're Xiao Fang's relatives. We heard she sells braised meat here, so we thought we'd come and buy some," Old Man Wei said.
However, the truth is that last time, Fang Yan left braised pig's head and pig intestines for him and a few old friends, and they ate them all like children.
They were all still craving more, clearly not having had enough to eat.
However, the Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner.
Families like theirs inevitably entertain some prominent figures during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Pig's head meat and pig intestines are indeed not suitable for formal occasions.
Those old folks are retired, so they don't need to worry about this.
But the children are still in their positions, fulfilling their duties.
While we advocate for a frugal lifestyle, we shouldn't be too careless either.
They all remembered that because there were no meat coupons, Fang Yan could sell braised pig's head and offal without needing meat coupons.
Old Wei and his companions took a break and decided to look for Fang Yan to buy some braised food.
I was thinking of waiting until after the Mid-Autumn Festival, when there wouldn't be so many guests coming and going at home, before I went out to buy more.
Sure enough, after the Mid-Autumn Festival last night, it was confirmed that no guests would be visiting at noon today.
After finding out where Fang Yan's stall was, Old Man Wei brought his grandson out.
"Oh," Aunt Zhu saw that Old Man Wei was well-maintained and dressed nicely, and since he was Fang Yan's relative, she thought that he might be able to help Fang Yan, so she told him the truth, "You're too late, Xiao Fang has been arrested."
As she spoke, she recounted to Old Man Wei what she had just heard from the shopkeeper next door about Fang Yan's arrest that morning.
The shop owner next door would occasionally add a word or two of correction.
"Bullshit! I've eaten countless meals made by Xiao Fang. If there were anything wrong with her cooking, wouldn't I have died a hundred or eighty times over?"
Old Wei had a fiery temper, and upon hearing this, he immediately started cursing, "Which heartless bastard is trying to harm Xiao Fang?"
"Uncle, you're right. We were also wondering if Xiao Fang's business was doing too well, making some people jealous, which is why they came up with such a despicable plan to harm Xiao Fang?"
Aunt Zhu chimed in.
"Hmph! I'd like to see who's after Xiao Fang!" Old Man Wei said, then turned and left angrily.
The young man who came with him apologized to the shop owner next door and Aunt Zhu, then turned around and quickly chased after him, saying, "Grandpa, wait for me!"
Old Man Wei thought the difference was only a little over an hour.
Now, if he goes to the police station to request a visitation with Fang Yan, he should be able to see her.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the police station and asked to see Fang Yan, the staff refused outright, saying, "She is an important prisoner, and no one except her lawyer can visit her."
"The criminal? Has he been convicted? Is there evidence? Has there been a trial?"
According to regulations, important criminals who have committed heinous crimes and for whom there is conclusive evidence are not allowed to be visited casually.
This is to prevent collusion.
The problem is, Fang Yan has only just been arrested, and they probably haven't even gathered any evidence yet, but they've already convicted her?
Although before he retired, Old Man Wei's work had little to do with law enforcement.
But he wasn't just an ordinary old man; there were some things he knew.
The staff were surprised to find that this was an old man who knew his stuff, and they were completely taken aback by his series of questions.
A few seconds later, she realized what she meant and could only retort with a stiff upper lip, "Anyway, she just can't visit."
Old Wei was furious, puffing out his beard and glaring, "Fine, fine! I really didn't expect this place to become a one-man show."
The staff had a feeling that this old man might be a bit difficult to deal with, so they didn't dare to argue with him any further. "You'd better leave quickly."
"Of course I'll leave!" Old Man Wei roared at him.
If we don't leave, how are we going to deal with these bastards?
Old man Wei, who couldn't find Fang Yan, came in a huff and left in a huff.
As for Fang Yaojin, he had been following behind her. Seeing Fang Yan enter the police station, he immediately went to find the man and said, "She's already inside."
"Someone will take you to see her in an hour." Once you've accepted the bribe, you have to do the work.
This time, Fang Yaojin spent a lot of money to find an official of some "rank" to "endorse" him.
The money was well spent, and they arranged everything perfectly for him.
Therefore, when Grandpa Wei arrived at the police station, Fang Yaojin was meeting with Fang Yan in a dimly lit room, so of course he couldn't see Fang Yan.
If Fang Yan had come in alone, according to their previous plan, they would have thrown her into a multi-person room.
Let her experience firsthand the warmth and hospitality of the people there.
Once she had been bullied enough, Fang Yaojin, as her cousin, would appear out of nowhere like a savior.
Unfortunately, ever since he decided to deal with Fang Yan, none of Fang Yaojin's plans have gone smoothly as he had planned.
For example, he knew that Fang Baishuang wanted to lure her to the Lion Roar Ridge and use bandits to get rid of her.
However, it was his sister, Fang Baishuang, who ultimately perished.
For example, he wanted to find someone to order braised meat, which would only annoy Fang Yan.
As it turned out, somehow, she seemed to have figured out his intentions.
...
Perhaps due to unforeseen circumstances, Fang Yaojin was not at all surprised that Fang Yan would bring Xiaoyuzai and Qibei to the police station.
"What happened to you?" Fang Yaojin asked anxiously as soon as he entered, as if he had rushed over to help her family as soon as he heard that she was in trouble.
The room was small and empty, but it was clean.
The large iron bucket was placed aside, and Fang Yan sat against the wall, holding the little fish.
Qibei stood beside the mother and son like a loyal guardian, warily watching their surroundings.
The moment Fang Yaojin entered, it immediately recognized him!
