Originally, Yang Xianrong wanted to go to the backyard to see the Shu embroidery and brocade ready-made clothes, but Xiao Ruobai said that it was already lunch time and everyone had to eat, so he was not in a hurry to see these things. And he said very sincerely: "Yesterday I just asked you to have a bowl of miscellaneous noodles. I am really worried. Today, I have to prepare a reception banquet for the Queen and the Prince."
"Actually, it's not necessary." Yang Xianrong grinned, because she had just eaten two buns and was not hungry at all.
Sima Ying glanced at her and understood the meaning of this sentence. She chuckled and said, "Magistrate Xiao, please don't be so polite. The Queen got up late today, so she naturally ate a little late."
After hearing this, Yang Xianrong couldn't help but want to push him.
"Oh oh oh, that can be done later. It just so happens that my mother wants to stew another local chicken." Xiao Ruobai also smiled, "Actually, the queen can also try other delicacies here. . My mother is in charge of cooking today, and her skills are also excellent. Oh, not only the miscellaneous sauce noodles, we also have braised rabbit heads and stir-fried lotus roots, which are all delicious. "
"Rabbit head?"
"Yes, there are a lot of rabbits here. Don't be afraid. They are very delicious. The rabbit legs are also good. They are all specialties of Qingyang County." Xiao Ruobai explained enthusiastically again.
"Okay, half an hour later." Yang Xianrong was finally tempted by the delicious food and nodded in agreement.
After casually strolling around in Huansha Suo, Xiao Ruobai said he wanted to see how his mother was cooking and returned to the county government office first. Yang Xianrong, Sima Ying and Liu Yao started strolling on the long street again.
The combination of these three people is also very strange. They have different identities and they don't seem to be able to walk together side by side. So, in the end, the three of them distanced themselves and went their separate ways.
Yang Xianrong didn't care about those two people, thinking that he still wanted to visit the Shu embroidery clothing store. Just looking at each house and touching the clothes with beautiful patterns made me smile a lot more. She originally wanted to buy a few pieces, but seeing that Sima Ying looked a little impatient, she had to hold back.
"Brother Liu, do you want to buy some dresses?"
"Why do you want to buy a dress?" Liu Yao followed Yang Xianrong without saying a word, just following suit.
"Then there are always some women in your family, right?" Yang Xianrong couldn't laugh or cry. "Of course it's good for you to buy those silks. In fact, it's more convenient to buy some ready-made clothes."
"Oh. Which one does third sister like? I'll buy it for you." Liu Yao's mind made Yang Xianrong unable to turn around.
"What? I don't want it." Yang Xianrong waved his hand quickly, "I have a lot of them at home."
"Then why are you wandering around here? Don't you want to buy clothes? Then why are you shopping?" Liu Yao really dared to ask.
Even Sima Ying looked at the two of them with suppressed laughter and nodded along.
"Hey, can't you go shopping? I've been rushing all the way, and now I'm finally here, can't I go shopping?" Yang Xianrong's eyes were full of displeasure, "I want to go to that clothing store again. go."
As a result, the two men had to follow her into another store. It just so happens that this is a store that only sells women's clothing, and men are not allowed in yet. The two men stood at the door, one on the left and the other on the right, frightening others so that they did not dare to enter.
The landlady asked Yang Xianrong in a low voice: "Sister, are these two men yours?"
"Oh, yes." Yang Xianrong was sitting in the shop, "Madam boss, are there any nice silk handkerchiefs or something like that? I'd like to buy them."
"Hey, these kind of things are given as gifts. If you like it, I'll give you a piece." The landlady was very discerning and could clearly see that Yang Xianrong had a different identity.
"That's not necessary. I just want to find a handkerchief that can smell good. Then, maybe, maybe, it can be put on the skin or hands, and then it can smell good all day long, but it can't be particularly fragrant... Hey , can you understand what I mean?"
"I understand, understand, it's just what you little girls think." The landlady smiled like a flower, "But the few pieces I have here are not enough. Go to Hongjin Village next door and ask, they have some. By the way, , their boss is the mother of Magistrate Xiao, and her craftsmanship is excellent. Last month, I saw her adding spices when dyeing silk, and then the handkerchief was really fragrant, and the smell lingered for a long time. However, I can’t control this ratio well and I won’t do it.”
"Oh, it doesn't need to be so fragrant." Yang Xianrong touched other clothing materials and saw a dress that was really beautiful. The colors and patterns were also her favorite. But after thinking about it and touching it again and again, I still didn’t buy it. After all, her status as a queen has too many restrictions.
Finally, Yang Xianrong, Sima Ying and Liu Yao returned to the county government office, went to the backyard, and sat at the dining table in the main room, ready to eat the delicious meal cooked by Xiao Ruobai's mother.
The braised rabbit head is really scary to look at. Yang Xianrong just looked at it and put down his chopsticks.
After drinking a large bowl of hot soup, he looked at Xiao Ruobai with a smile, "Actually, today is a family banquet. Please invite your mother to come and sit."
"Hey, it's against the rules. My mother doesn't have any official position and is not suitable to be here." Xiao Ruobai quickly stood up, "Actually, even lower officials are not qualified to sit with you."
"It doesn't matter. You see, Brother Liu is just my friend. What's more, at this time, there are not so many dogmatic etiquette. Please invite your mother to come and sit with us. She has worked really hard."
"Thank you, Queen." Xiao Ruobai almost knelt down, but Zhang Liangxue stood aside and gave him a hand. After quickly thanking him, he rushed to the kitchen to inform his mother.
At this time, Yang Xianrong suddenly asked Sima Ying, "My lord, how many of your followers are in the county government?"
"What?" Sima Ying was stunned when she heard such a question. "Fifty people, all here."
"You can keep thirty people, and the twenty of them can go out and scatter around the county government office." Yang Xianrong touched the edge of the bowl, "Let's put four in the room."
"What happened?" Sima Ying and Liu Yao both looked at her slightly nervously, "Is there a murderer? Is Xiao Ruobai's mother a murderer?"
"Aren't we here just to find the reason why the 'toilet paper' was contaminated? We should have found it now, but I don't know why they did this? It's really strange. So, if someone struggles for a while, Or if you refuse to admit it and make a fuss, it won't be good. Be prepared, let your personal entourage come in, hide your body, and stand behind the screen. Don't let anyone discover it. "
"Okay." Sima Ying stood up and went out, then brought four people in and stood behind the screen. At the same time, Yang Xianrong glanced at Cuixi and Lanxiang again, and they both nodded towards her.
