The villain was shocked: his mother used a ghost to coax the child
Chapter 120: Bullying the superiors and concealing the truth from the inferiors
Barbecue is a very new food in this era.
But it is very common to make, and many families smoke and roast meat, making it a new food.
Many people have eaten grilled fish, but the fishy smell is too strong and many people don't like it.
Naturally, fish was among the ingredients Wen Qingliu bought.
However, this grilled fish is not the kind that is grilled over fire.
Instead, it is fried in a pan first, until the surface becomes crispy and the fish meat inside becomes fresh and tender.
Bake it on the fire for a while.
Put the base ingredients and soup base side dishes into the pot, then put the fish in to stew.
The fish over there is put into the pot, and the skewers over here are also ready.
This time, having barbecue with the Bai family was not just for enjoying this delicious food.
It also paves the way for the future barbecue industry.
Since we are doing business, there is absolutely no reason to let ourselves lose money.
So she gave up the expensive coal and used charcoal directly.
When we open a shop, we will also use charcoal for barbecue.
The fire was already burning very brightly, and Wen Qingliu put the skewers of meat on the barbecue grill.
Soon, the aroma of meat wafted out.
Just sprinkle some simple seasoning on it and it tastes delicious.
Bai's personal maid was learning how to barbecue nearby.
Wen Qingliu was generous and taught her all the skills.
After the maid was almost able to get the hang of it, she went to prepare a bowl of barbecue sauce.
The barbecue sauce makes it stronger and more flavorful.
Liang Changan was standing next to the barbecue grill, and every time the meat on the grill was ready, he was responsible for bringing it to the dining table.
It’s not that he is particularly filial, nor that he loves them that much, it’s mainly because he is really greedy.
Sitting around the oven, he can be the first to eat the freshly grilled skewers.
The Bai couple looked helpless and could only lower their heads to hide their smiles.
It was already late after the barbecue.
In this era, there are no mobile phones to kill time, so everyone usually goes to bed very early.
Even though Wen Qingliu kept delaying today, it was only a little after ten o'clock in the evening.
I don’t know if I should say that children are full of energy, but Liang Changan didn’t look sleepy at all.
It was only after Bai said a few words that he went back into the room.
The guest room arranged for Wen Qingliu was right next to Liang Changan's room.
This was arranged by Liang Ruzhi, as he was afraid that something might happen to his son at night.
By twelve o'clock in the night, Liang Ruzhi couldn't fall asleep at all because he was thinking about these things.
"No, I have to go see Chang An."
Bai felt strange. In fact, she had felt strange ever since Wen Qingliu came.
It's not that I suspect that the two of them are secretly communicating with each other and transferring money.
She had no way to describe that strange feeling.
Bai also sat up from the bed.
"Husband, what is going on?"
Liang Ruzhi thought for a moment and sighed.
He slowly told all those things out in one go.
When Bai heard this, she was shocked. This damn man actually hid such a big thing from her.
She hurriedly climbed down from the bed and casually pinned her hair behind her head with a hairpin.
He pulled off another outer robe, put it on, and hurried towards his son's room.
Wen Qingliu was not worried about not being able to sleep.
She had already set up a magic circle at Liang Changan's side.
If the dream-eating beast’s target tonight is really An An.
As long as they get close to his room, Wen Qingliu will be able to receive it immediately.
There was no movement from there until late at night.
Wen Qingliu was also woken up by the Bai family's noise. The three of them sat in front of the stone table and looked up at the moon.
Until the sky brightened and the sun climbed up the horizon, Liang Changan did not have any symptoms of fever.
Could it be that the dream-eating beast is so cruel that it attacks babies?
Bai hurriedly called the woman and asked her whether her child had symptoms of fever last night.
The maid was puzzled.
"To reply to Madam, he was fine last night and had no fever."
After these words were spoken, the three of them became even more confused.
The couple's eyes fell on Wen Qingliu, who had gotten up early and made some calculations.
That’s right, the location is exactly the county magistrate’s mansion.
"Liang County Magistrate, please gather together all the people in the mansion who can breathe, whether they are people or livestock."
The governor of Liang County nodded and immediately gave the order.
There are actually not too many people in the mansion, just a dozen or so.
Including their family of three, there were only twenty people surveyed.
These included coachmen, grooms, housekeepers, nannies, and maids.
"Only this?"
Wen Qingliu was a little surprised. The County Magistrate's Mansion was issued by the imperial court, and there were only so many people in such a big County Magistrate's Mansion.
Liang Ruzhi nodded and said, "That's all the people."
The servants all got up early, and now they were just wondering why they were called over so early?
Wen Qingliu raised his hand and calculated.
If all the people in the mansion are in this yard, then there should be no sign of living creatures anywhere else.
"There is a row of houses on the western side of the yard. Who lives in the one near the corner?"
The butler stepped forward to answer.
"Miss, the room you are talking about should be the servants' room. The one in the corner should be where Mammy Ma lives."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Ma Ma.
Nanny Ma was a little nervous, not knowing why she was suddenly called upon.
Wen Qingliu looked at her with burning eyes.
"Is there any living thing in your room?"
Ma Ma's face changed, but the panic was quickly covered up.
She looked at Liang Ruzhi and his wife. Could it be that the master and the mistress had discovered it?
She swallowed a few times and answered tremblingly.
"No."
Bai looked at her, then turned to look at Wen Qingliu with a puzzled look.
"Sister Qingliu, what's wrong?"
"I suspect that she brought her child here to live with her. What happened last night must have happened to her child."
No matter what, Wen Qingliu cannot interfere in other people's affairs.
Even though she calculated that there were still three people in the room, she didn't know how to tell Bai about it.
Hearing this, Bai's sharp gaze fell on Ma.
"Is this possible?"
Ma Ma's knees went weak and she fell to her knees.
"Madam, I didn't mean to do this. My son and daughter-in-law were sick these two days and couldn't take care of my grandson, so I brought him here."
"I know I was wrong, ma'am. I'll send him away right now."
What made Bai angry was not that she loved her grandson, but that she was deceived.
Their county magistrate's office is not a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones.
If there's no one to take care of the child, just tell her. She'll allow someone to bring him in.
But obviously, this matter is not the most important thing at the moment.
"Did your grandson have a fever and cry last night?"
Mammy replied fearfully, "She has a fever, but she's not crying."
Liang Ruzhi's gaze fell on Wen Qingliu.
Isn’t it said that souls that have been devoured will cry? Could it be that the child just has a common high fever?
