Abduct a general to farm

Xu Ke's expression was even more angry than Mo Ran's, his delicate face was tightened, and he stared at the two women fiercely.

When the county magistrate saw someone intruding in, he quickly slapped the gavel: "Hugh, you're being rude! The court is handling a case, and people who are not related to the court should not come in to disturb the order. Come, let me take them out."

Even if it was his precious son, he could only do business in public, and no one kept him. He signaled his subordinates to take him away immediately with his eyes.

It's just that Xu Ke was not afraid of his father's majesty at all. Seeing that someone wanted to arrest him, he frowned and said:

"Wait, let me see who dares! I'm going to stay here, because I'm not here to make trouble, but to be Miss Mo's witness, to prove that she and Jiutian Restaurant are innocent, because I know how he was poisoned !"

He flicked his wide sleeves and pointed his finger at the man who just woke up on the ground.

"Oh? You know? Then how did he get poisoned?" The county magistrate waved his hand to make his subordinates back down, curious.

"It's very simple. He hid the poison powder in the nail of his little finger, and he flicked the powder into his mouth when he was eating hot pot."

Xu Ke strolled over, tapped the man's left hand, which was tucked into his sleeve, where the powder was hidden, and someone immediately went up to check it.

"The whole family intentionally sat in the corner of the lobby from the moment they entered the door. This man sat in the innermost place, and others could easily overlook him, but,"

Xu Ke smiled slightly: "Unfortunately, I happened to be eating at the next table, and I could see what he did from that angle. I could clearly see the scene where he poisoned himself. They did this just to frame Give it to Jiutian Restaurant."

The inspectors really saw powder in Xu Kezhi's fingernails. When people checked it, it was indeed a drug that could create the illusion of food poisoning, but the amount of powder the man ate was small and did not endanger his life.

Perhaps it was also deliberately controlled by them.

The inspector shouted out his conclusion, and the common people outside the door all spurned those people.

Mo Ran smiled at Xu Ke, thanking him for his help, Xu Ke saw his beautiful face and bewitching smile, his ears turned slightly red, and he grinned back.

Ajiu's face immediately turned cold, his eyes were filled with thick ink, cloudy and sunny.

Such framing happened too many times, and the county magistrate was no stranger to it, but the two women dared to turn black and white in front of him, it was simply despising his majesty, the county magistrate angrily said:

"Now the evidence is all there. You thieves are shouting to catch the thief. What else can you say! The food made by Jiutian Restaurant is even praised by the emperor, but now you are going to be framed by you. Don't you think the emperor approves it?" Are the words of Jiutian Restaurant a lie? The emperor has no jokes!"

The lie was so easy to expose, and the emperor was even involved. The two women panicked and wailed, not knowing what to do. The man who woke up saw this and got up from the ground, kowtowed and confessed:

"My lord, my lord, my lord, my lord, my lord, my lord, my lord, I didn't do it on purpose. My lord was deceived by the lard. Seeing that the Nine Heavens Restaurant was making so much money every day, I felt malicious, so I wanted to extort some money to spend. Please also ask your lord Let the Xiaomin family be spared.

Xiaomin would do this because his family is too poor, and they can't get rid of the pot these days. If this continues, the family will starve to death, so... But Jiutian Restaurant is so rich these days, what's wrong with giving me some money, they are just a loss You paid a little money, but you saved our family's life, my lord. "

This kind of confusing speech made Mo Qiqi laugh, while pleading guilty, but at the same time he said that it is not the Nine Heavens Restaurant, what do you think?He said without hesitation:

"It's so funny. Your own poor family has nothing to do with our restaurant. You have hands and feet. You can always earn money to eat if you find some work. Besides, if you have no money to eat, why can you come to our restaurant to eat hot pot? Did you pay for it? If you say it like this, it’s our fault that the restaurant didn’t blackmail you or give you money. We didn’t lend a helping hand and let you starve to death?”

Xu Ke also felt speechless, how did he say such insane words, ignorant people are everywhere, all the time.

In the end, the three were imprisoned by the Yamen, and it was not known when they would be released. As for their children, because they were too young and ignorant, they didn't know what their adults were doing. They just cried along, as if they had done nothing wrong. It was inappropriate to be detained like an adult, the county magistrate thought about it, and let him go.

As for his whereabouts, it is not their concern.

The people at the door gradually dispersed after watching a good show. Mo Ran invited Xu Ke and said, "Mr. Xu, thank you for your help just now, so we can expose their lies so quickly. As a thank you, I invite you to have dinner together in the restaurant at night." ,how?"

After realizing that he approached Mo Ran at a close distance, Xu Ke blushed again, and he was about to respond coyly.

Ajiu felt dissatisfied, and pulled Mo Ran to his side, "Lady, didn't you say that you are going back to make cakes in a hurry? If you can't make it again, there will be no cakes for grandma's birthday, so let's go back and make cakes first." Cake, shopkeeper Zhang will thank him. If the lady wants someone to accompany her to eat, I can accompany the lady."

He secretly poked at him and didn't directly say that he didn't want Mo Ran and Xu Ke to have dinner together, but the jealousy in his words was about to overflow.

Xu Ke was keenly aware of the man's intention of saying this, and the title of "lady" that declared sovereignty, his eyes were dim, and he lowered his eyes.

Only Mo Ran couldn't hear anything, and said ignorantly: "It's just the effort of eating a meal, it won't take long, the cake will be made tomorrow, I have already gained some experience, and it will be made in two days. "

Foodie Xu Ke didn't miss the point, and asked curiously, "Miss Mo, what is cake...? Is the restaurant going to release new food again?"

"The cake is equivalent to a relatively fluffy bread, with a layer of cream on it. It is a sweet food. It is very delicious. I like it very much. Cakes are usually used to celebrate birthdays and full moon banquets. They have a good meaning. When I make them, It can also be rolled out in restaurants, if Mr. Xu wants to eat or celebrate, you can go to the restaurant to buy it."

"Coincidentally, I also like to eat sweets. The things made by Miss Mo are very delicious, and I like them very much." Xu Kexi said.

Xu Ke didn't know what to think, and blushed inexplicably: "Miss Mo, dare to ask, can I participate in your grandma's birthday?"

Ajiu made trouble out of no reason: "No, no, I don't agree, my wife doesn't know you at all, so you can't go."

Being rejected by Ajiu, Xu Ke looked a little embarrassed, he didn't know what to say, Mo Ran helplessly knocked Ajiu on the head, and warned: "Don't make trouble."

He apologized to Xu Ke again with an apologetic face: "I'm sorry, he always has a childish temper, and he doesn't count what he says. I welcome you if you are willing to participate. One more person will have more fun, and you can eat it right away." My cake. My grandma’s birthday is seven days later, on August [-]th, and I’ll be waiting for you in Langhe Village.”

Mo Ran complied with Xu Ke's words. After the two made an appointment, they had a meal in harmony. Only Ajiu seemed unhappy, and then they went back to their respective homes.

On the swaying carriage, Ajiu complained: "Lady, I don't like you and Xu Ke getting too close. He has bad intentions for you, and I'm the only one who treats you well. You have to stay away from him."

The tall man pouted his lips, looking a little funny.He grabbed Mo Ran's sleeves with his fingers and twisted them around, the silky fabric did not leave a single wrinkle.

Mo Ran laughed and said: "Xu Ke is a nice person, what's wrong? It's you, don't always be hostile to others, and they didn't do anything to you."

Ajiu put down the sleeve in his hand and held Mo Ran's hand instead. The wheat-colored complexion was in stark contrast to Mo Ran's fair and tender complexion. If it fell into the eyes of others, it would be somewhat ambiguous.

It's just because he has made a lot of little moves since he got acquainted with Mo Ran, and Mo Ran got used to it over time, and he didn't shake off his hand, even if he shook off the next second, the other party would still stick to him.

Ajiu frowned and said, "I can tell, he likes you, but I hate him!"

"Why didn't I see it? I'm not Xiangmomo. If I'm a person, I'll like me. I'm just a little village girl. She's the county magistrate's son. Can he like me?"

"Then what if a general likes you? What will happen to you?" Ajiu was originally leaning on Mo Ran's shoulder as if he had no bones in his body. When he said this, he straightened up and looked into Mo Ran's eyes and asked.

Inexplicably, Mo Ran felt that he was very serious and did not just ask casually.

He thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "Impossible, the general only stays in the capital, he won't come to such a small place, and he won't like me, so I won't do anything, your question is very strange."

Ajiu's shoulders slumped: "Don't you like the general?"

Mo Ran was puzzled: "I don't know him, why should I like him? I like money more."

"The general's family has a lot of money."

"I only like my own money, and the general's money is not mine."

"Does that lady like me?" Ajiu rubbed Mo Ran's shoulder, "Do you like me?"

He opened his moist eyes and looked at Mo Ran like a puppy, pitiful but looking forward to it.

Mo Ran knew that he would ask this question, so he smiled and said, "I like mature men."

By implication, you are a bit naive.

Ajiu: "..."

He is a cavalry general. In the past 22 years, only others have said that he is ruthless. No one has ever said or insinuated that he is childish and immature...

It would be great if he could stop the lady from speaking.

After thinking about it, Mo Ran felt that the reason why the cake failed was because the flour used was wrong, so he bought new low-gluten flour, and then bought a batch of free-range eggs from the villagers' house to continue making.

Before making the cake, the cake base should be prepared first. After preparing all the materials, he started to try again.

Ask Ajiu to help separate the egg white from the yolk. This is very simple for Ajiu. He finished it quickly. Then Mo Ran took the egg yolk in front of him, added milk and oil and stirred well, then added low-gluten flour to continue Stir well, put it aside, and then put the sugar into the egg white to beat.

Put the egg white into the egg yolk paste and stir evenly, put it into a cylindrical mold, and then steam it.After steaming, turn the mold upside down to cool down. During the period, add milk, oil, and sugar to the egg whites, and continue to add after it becomes thicker. After doing this for four times, use chopsticks to pick up the sticky matter. There is no dripping, and the cream is finished. .

After the cake embryo had cooled down, he took a knife and cut it into three evenly crosswise pieces, each layer was smeared with cream and put together.

"Ajiu, how about you try this cake?"

After the cake was ready, Mo Ran brought it in front of Ajiu, holding a pair of chopsticks in his hand, looking expectantly.

Ajiu looked at the cake that looked good, and praised it before he ate it, then took Mo Ran's chopsticks, poked a piece to taste it, and said with a smile in Mo Ran's expectant eyes: "Mrs. The cake is delicious."

"I love so much."

Mo Ran also tasted a piece himself, and it tasted really good. Ajiu didn't lie, the cake was successfully made, so he finally felt relieved.

So the first cake in the Yuan Xia Dynasty was born, but no one knew about it except the parties involved.
