Chapter 64
Su Guoer was puzzled, but... after all, they were people from her shop, otherwise people outside would not know that she habitually hid the marinade packets in the cracks in the corners of the wall.
This requires daily observation to deduce from her actions, because she always puts the marinade ingredients behind people's back.
No one saw what she actually put into the braised meat.
So... who could this person be? He actually stole things while she was in prison? What a terrible person!
She was a little annoyed and regretful for a moment. If she had known earlier, she should not have put the marinade in the corner, but should have put it in her bedroom.
But then she thought again, since the other party had this idea, even if she was buried in the ground, they could dig her out by digging three feet deep. It had nothing to do with whether she was on guard or not.
She was no longer sad and just wanted to catch this person. She couldn't let such a person stay in her store, not even for a moment!
Who could it be? Su Guoer wondered.
The two apprentices have not been here since Su Guoer's accident. The shop is cleaned by Yunniang, Cui Niang, Chunniang and Li Si, so the person who stole the recipe can only be among them.
Although she didn't want to doubt any of them, she had to doubt them now.
Forget it, I'll think about this tomorrow. Or find a chance to blow this up, otherwise... the other party might make another move...
She sighed and stopped worrying about it. She went to the east wing and took out the silver she had hidden before leaving. She counted it and found that there were a total of 230 taels of silver. Adding the 3,100 taels of silver she had previously deposited in the bank, she now had a lot of silver in her hands, enough to buy a house.
but……
Su Guoer wasn't planning on buying a house for the time being. Ever since Pei Yan had the land deed delivered to her, she'd felt a lot more at ease. She didn't even feel much pain when her Lu Fang was stolen.
Anyway...that person won't get anything good.
I am not so anxious anymore. I just feel that I have a place to stay in Bian Jing. I feel much more at ease and have greater wishes for my future life!
Buy paddy fields, buy farmland, and strive to get a bigger yard, comparable to the villas in Huailiufang with three entrances and three exits! Su Guoer really likes the house there.
I saw it by chance when I was traveling with Cuiping. It was an independent town with hundreds of families living in it. Every family had pavilions, towers, and small streams. The tiny courtyard with only three entrances and exits was full of spring scenery.
This is the area where wealthy businessmen in the city of Bianjing gather.
Of course, it cannot be compared with the first-class villa like the Duke's Mansion, but it is said that there are also many officials from the Bianjing City living there, but they are all of lower status.
If she could live there and make friends with any family, these would be her future connections and the guarantee of her shop.
Su Guoer's dream is to live in a yard like that and to climb to the position she can reach through her own efforts.
Life is endless, she should fight for herself.
Okay, don’t think too much. Su Guoer closed her eyes and prepared to rest. She didn’t sleep at all last night, and she didn’t sleep well in the prison all day. She should make up for it with a good sleep!
She fell asleep as soon as she turned her head, and Su Guoer slept soundly.
She dreamed of her father again. In the dream, her father had become an old man. He took her to settle down in Bianjing City and opened a local cuisine restaurant. The restaurant was very popular among the neighbors, and his cooking skills were better than hers.
He introduced various healthy dishes one after another, and gradually he became the most famous chef in the city of Bianjing.
She was already married, with a son-in-law, and now she was standing in the yard holding her baby. Her husband was busy in the front yard, her father was stirring the pot in the kitchen, and the shop was crowded with people clamoring to buy her braised meat, and some were shouting for her father to serve the food quickly.
People who came to eat her snacks lined up in front of the door, creating a lively scene.
Tears soaked the pillowcase. Su Guoer turned over and continued to sleep. She could no longer tell whether it was a dream or reality. It made her cry anyway. Tears fell drop by drop, and the same thing happened to her in the dream.
It seems that she knows what reality is, and being able to see her father in a dream is already a great blessing.
The next morning, Su Guoer got up early, but saw that Pang Ya was still sleeping, so she didn't call her.
She came to the yard alone, preparing to get some mountain spring water to make noodles.
The spring in the yard provided her with a convenience. The sesame cakes made with the spring water were obviously more delicious, so Su Guoer always used the spring water to make the dough. She was not afraid of the trouble.
The wooden barrel she had left last night was already filled with spring water, so Su Guoer planned to switch to another barrel. However, as she was switching the barrels, she stumbled upon something gleaming in her small pond, where the spring water was flowing out.
She was so surprised that she reached out to pick up the shiny object.
The object sank to the bottom of the pool about a meter high.
Su Guoer rolled up her sleeves and jumped into the water. Even after being startled by the cold water in the early morning, she still didn't give up.
Just like that, he fished out the golden thing.
It feels like a token, with a tassel hanging from it.
It was indeed a token, but the back was very flat, with nothing on it, not even a single word engraved on it.
But... when Su Guoer turned the token over, what she saw surprised her.
The giant golden eagle is carved vividly, and every feather on its body speaks of its nobility and bravery. The wings of the bird are slightly open, and it seems to stretch and spread out its broad arms, as if it is flying high, or singing excitedly.
With a pair of eagle eyes, sharp and vivid.
………
This pattern...she was incredibly familiar with it. Her mood instantly sank to the bottom.
Imperial City Division.
Lin Zhao took a token from Gao Qiu. The token was made of silver and had a corner broken from being bumped.
The strange thing is that there is no pattern on the back of the token.
But the front of the token is carved with a lifelike eagle.
The falcon's eyes were calm and cold-blooded, as if it was going to eat someone alive in the next second.
Obviously, this is not something that an ordinary craftsman can make.
Unfortunately, there is no text prompt on it.
"This is the token we found on the leader in black. His subordinates also have one, but it's made of copper, and the pattern on this token is exactly the same."
As he spoke, he took out a token from his pocket. It was indeed made of copper, and the pattern on it was exactly the same as the silver token.
They are all eagles spreading their wings to soar.
It feels very good to the touch, it is made of high-quality material.
"Just these two?" Lin Zhao asked.
