Lin Sui'an suppressed his laughter until his large and small intestines were knotted.
Mu Xia lowered her head and tied her hands, with a very guilty expression on her face, "Sanniang arrived at the house at Xu time today. At that time, Shiro and you all went to the government office to investigate the case. Sanniang said that you worked hard investigating the case and wanted to hold a banquet to reward you. Who would have thought - —”
"Who would have thought that she would be drunk first?" Hua Yitang pressed her fan against her forehead, as if trying to flatten the knots on her brow.
Ling Zhiyan: "Hey!"
Fang Ke hid far away, it was probably past the time to fall asleep, and his face was very ugly, "Does the third lady of the Hua family have some unknown strange disease? Why do you arrest whom and attack whom?"
Etta: "It's not a disease, it's just drunk or bad habits!"
Hua Yitang sighed, "Doctor Fang doesn't know something. As long as the third sister touches wine, she will pounce on people and stick to them. She won't come down no matter what. Therefore, she is still a bastard in the circle of Yangdu ladies." The number is: Drunk dog skin plaster."
Ling Zhiyan: "Hey!"
Lin Sui'an said with emotion: "Hua Sanniang is very good at attacking people. She is quick and accurate when attacking people. If it weren't for your quick reaction, Hua Yitang, I would have almost been hit."
Hua Yitang shook his head helplessly, "The third sister likes beautiful young ladies and handsome young men the most. I, Ita, the second sister, and Mu Xia were all attacked when we were young, and I still have lingering fears when I think about it."
Mu Xia: "Everyone in the Hua family knows Sanniang's habit. Every time Sanniang drinks, she always retreats to protect herself."
Eta: "Sanniang, it's time to stop drinking."
Ling Zhiyan: "Hua Yitang!!"
Hua Yitang's heavy and sad expression disappeared in an instant, replaced by gloating, waving his fan happily, "Hey, there you are! What are you doing, Ling Liulang?"
Everyone looked at him, all covering their cheeks and suppressing laughter.
Ling Zhiyan stood upright, her body as stiff as a sugar cane, her face as red as a peach, the sweat on her forehead like a pile of beans, and the veins on her neck were crunchy.
Hua Yimeng strangled his neck with her arms and wrapped her legs around his waist, like a koala hanging on a sugar cane, purring and seeming to be singing.
Logically speaking, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, sticking together in such a posture, should be somewhat charming, but the expressions of these two people are nothing but funny.
Lin Sui'an couldn't bear it anymore and laughed out loud.
Hua Yitang: "Hahahahaha!"
Fang Ke, Yita and Mu Xia lowered their heads one after another, their shoulders shaking wildly.
Ling Zhiyan was about to explode, "Hua Yitang, get your third sister away quickly!"
Hua Yitang circled Ling Zhiyan, laughing with tears, "Ling Liulang, it's not that I don't help you, it's that Hua is powerless. The third sister's nickname is not for nothing, as long as she sticks to it , Unless you sober up, you will never let go."
Fang Ke: "That's not good. Hua Sanniang drank all the Manbi in Mrs. Lin's room. She will be drunk for at least three or four hours."
Lin Sui'an: "Eh?! Is there a lot of bi in my room for Qian Jing?!"
Ita twisted her fingers and said, "The fifteen altars are all gone. Qianjing will be angry."
Although Manbi's jar is not big, its price is outrageous. One jar of hardware, fifteen jars is worth seventy-five gold. Lin Sui'an couldn't laugh anymore, and his heart hurt so much!
Ling Zhiyan's fists were loosened and tightened, her cheeks were tightened and loosened, "Hua Yitang, do you want your third sister to hang on to me all night?!"
Hua Yitang: "Liu Lang, don't be impatient. Let Hua think of a countermeasure."
Lin Sui'an couldn't stand it any longer and stepped forward to hold Hua Yimeng's arm to pull her away. Unexpectedly, Hua Yimeng suddenly turned her head and bit her. Lin Sui'an was startled and quickly dodged away. Hua Yimeng Meng was greatly dissatisfied and tightened his arms suddenly, making Ling Zhiyan's face turn pale.
"Ms. Lin, you must not do it. If you pull someone by force, Sanniang will bite them!" Mu Xia said hurriedly.
With Lin Sui'an's strength, it would not be difficult to force the two of them apart, but there was no guarantee that Hua Yimeng and Ling Zhiyan would not be injured. Lin Sui'an did not dare to move rashly and glared at Hua Yitang.
Hua Yitang tapped her fan on her forehead and circled around Ling Zhiyan again, "There is only one way now. The third sister is most afraid of the eldest brother. It might be useful if Hua imitates the eldest brother's tone and scares her."
Ling Zhiyan gritted her teeth: "Hurry up!"
Hua Yitang cleared his throat, stretched his arms, stretched his legs, and did warm-up exercises for a long time. He straightened his back, gripped the handle of the fan tightly, lost his breath in his Dantian, and shouted angrily, "Hua Yimeng, how can you become such a decent person? Quickly Come down quickly and go back to your room to rest!"
Hey, don't mention it, this shout is really effective. Hua Yimeng stopped singing, turned her head, her watery eyes turned around Hua Yitang, and smiled charmingly, "Xiao Silang, be good, go to bed quickly , only by sleeping can you grow taller."
After saying that, he tilted his head and placed it against Ling Zhiyan's shoulder.
Everyone: "..."
It's completely counter-productive!
Ling Zhiyan's face was now white with red, red with green, purple, black, and green. She became angry with embarrassment, and suddenly shouted: "How dignified are you, get out!"
Hua Yimeng raised his head in excitement and stared at Ling Zhiyan. Their eyes met and they were very close. Ling Zhiyan leaned back slowly, holding her neck. Her cervical vertebrae were about to break. Suddenly, Hua Yimeng's eyes turned red. It was Qi Qi. Then burst into tears.
Ling Zhiyan felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
"Why are you so cruel to me..." Hua Yimeng loosened her hands and feet and fell to the ground, with tears in her eyes and a sad look on her face, "You are so cruel -"
After saying that, he sighed after twists and turns, and walked out of Qiuyi Pavilion without lingering for a moment.
Ling Zhiyan was completely stunned, her expression was shocked, confused, angry, introspective, guilty, conscience pricking, and finally she stumbled away with blank features.
Everyone was stunned.
Lin Sui'an: "Did Ling Sizhi know Hua Sanniang before?"
Hua Yitang: "Never seen it before."
"But Hua Sanniang's tone of voice seems to be——"
It was as if she had had a sadomasochistic relationship with handsome Ling for three lifetimes.
Hua Yitang hit his forehead with the fan, making his smooth and fair forehead turn red, "Third sister, I beg you, don't make a mess of yourself every time you get drunk!"
Lin Sui'an didn't sleep peacefully that night. He couldn't let go of Lian Xiaoshuang's case, and he was thinking about watching the excitement of Ling Ling. He fell asleep half asleep at three quarters of the hour, got up in one fell swoop, and walked as fast as he could. Wash up quickly and go out.
Hua Yitang likes to eat the most. Three meals a day are the top priority in Huazhai's work, especially breakfast. The main theme is to have a clear theme and feel refreshed. The climate in Yidu is hot and humid, with few sunny days and foggy days. It was very uncomfortable to eat in the house. Mu Xia made different dining plans based on the climate of Yidu. The most important one was to choose a dining location based on the weather conditions on that day.
Hua's Ninety-nine Houses is the second largest among all Hua's houses in the country, second only to Hua's Mansion in Yangdu. There are ninety-nine rooms in the main hall plus side halls. Needless to say, the main hall is magnificent, with ninety-eight rooms. The side halls are densely scattered throughout the house, with picturesque scenery and different styles.
Today's breakfast is served at the Diaolan Pavilion by the Buchou Lake. As the name suggests, the pavilion has jade railings, white pillars and green tiles. Half of it is hidden in the Buchou Lake, and the other half is hidden among the exotic flowers and grasses. The mist surrounds it. It's like a fairy's mansion, like a dream.
Lin Sui'an came here for the first time, so he had to grab a servant to lead the way. When he got to the place, he took a closer look and found that a hundred steps away was the Qiu Yi Pavilion from last night.
Everyone was here, even Fang Ke was there, holding a tea bowl and sipping it with dark circles under his eyes. Doctor Fang has a tricky taste and dislikes flower tea, so every day Eta will cook a pot of strong-flavored tea soup for him. The color is red, orange, red, green, blue, purple, and the taste is bitter, spicy, sweet, sour, and astringent, with spices. The formula is Eta's exclusive top secret. A single sip by a mortal is comparable to Naiheqiao Mengpo soup - it can directly reincarnate.
Lin Sui'an took a look and saw that Doctor Fang's tea soup today was black, with a layer of white flowers floating on the surface, which looked like lard. He silently recited Amitabha in his heart, picked up the amber-clear flower tea in front of him, and took a sip. Feeling relaxed all over.
I thought that the handsome guy Ling was thin-skinned and must have fled to the government office early today. Unexpectedly, Ling Zhiyan was still there, frowning and eating one bite after another. However, his expression looked very tangled, as if he wanted to eat, but It seemed like he wanted to escape, but he couldn't bear to do so.
Taking a closer look at the meals on his desk, Lin Sui'an understood that what was prepared for Ling Zhiyan today were all his favorite foods but could not afford them on weekdays, such as Whispering Light Noodles (with cane sugar imported from India), Immortal Stewed pigeons in fresh milk, cold toad soup (clam soup), refreshing lotus purple jade pearl cake for dessert, and finally fresh sheep soup, full of carbohydrates, guaranteed to be full of energy today.
This special breakfast table costs at least two dollars. Xingyang Ling's stingy bloodline cannot be wasted on him. Fortunately, everyone tacitly didn't mention what happened last night and left three thin noodles for Lord Ling Sizhi.
Hua Yitang looked at Ling Zhiyan happily while eating, and kept mumbling, "Hua is true to her word. She said she would make you five pounds fatter, so she must not lose even one pound."
Lin Sui'an ate the meat happily: He was obviously apologizing for what happened to Hua Sanniang last night, but he refused to admit it. He insisted on finding such a boring excuse. It was really too honest to say so.
Fang Ke drank a large bowl of tea soup with a very satisfied expression. He put down the tea bowl and asked, "How is the progress of the case?"
Hua Yitang: "We found the first crime scene and the place where the body was dumped. There are two suspects. They both said they had alibi. Jin Ruo has already gone to verify it."
"Where is the first scene?"
"The embroidery room of Lian Xiaoshuang's house."
"The progress is too slow." Fang Ke looked disgusted, "How is Taohualan's investigation going?"
Ling Zhiyan: "Today Ling is going to check the Peach Blossom Demon's files——"
"Good morning, everyone -" Hua Yimengpingtingting walked into the Diaolan Pavilion, her shawl hanging behind her like gauze smoke, and the white jade peony sachet ball at her waist bloomed with a faint fragrance.
Ling Zhiyan's face suddenly turned white and then turned red. She grabbed a piece of purple jade pearl paste and ran away through the door without even daring to look at Hua Yimeng.
Hua Yimeng looked at Ling Zhiyan's leaving figure in surprise, "Who was that person with a face like a monkey's butt just now?!"
Lin Sui'an: "Pfft!"
Hua Yitang held up his forehead with a fan and said, "Sirius Lang of the Ling family."
Hua Yimeng said "Ah" and suddenly said, "The sixth son of the Ling family in Xingyang, I hugged him when he was a child. I remember when I was three years old, he was just born and still in swaddling clothes—— Hua Yimeng frowned, "That's not right, the Hua family and the Ling family had already turned against each other at that time. Why did I meet the infant Ling Liulang——"
Everyone was stunned.
Good guy, this isn't going to be a bloody marriage, is it? Lin Sui An said.
Hua Yitang beeped softly, "Liu Lang is too miserable. He was just a child. When he grew up, he didn't escape the clutches of the third sister -"
Hua Yimeng smiled brilliantly, and her voice was as melodious as fairy music, "Silang, what did you say?"
Hua Yitang coughed dryly and changed the subject, "Why is Third Sister here in Yidu?"
"Of course it's for your Lao Shizi Hundred Flowers Tea." Hua Yimeng took out a tea bag and threw it to Ita. Ita opened it, picked up a handful and smelled it, and then darkened her face, "This is fake!"
Hua Yitang's eyes shone, "Ah, a fake appears so soon!"
Hua Yimeng rolled her eyes, "Silang, your expression of fearing that the world will not be in chaos is exactly the same as that of my elder brother."
Lin Sui'an os: Hua Sanniang, your eye-rolling expression is exactly the same as Hua Yitang's.
Hua Yitang: "The source of the counterfeit goods is Yidu?"
Hua Yimeng: "Never leave ten."
Hua Yitang waved his small fan proudly, "I came just in time. Now that Hua has joined the army as a judicial officer in Yidu, it is his duty to search for counterfeit goods——"
"Go away! Don't make trouble! Every time you get involved, big shit will break out in the sky!" Hua Yimeng said disgustedly, "I heard that you just entered Yidu City yesterday for only a few hours. Got a case?"
Hua Yitang laughed dryly: "I'm lucky."
Hua Yimeng sighed heavily and looked at Lin Sui'an with a faint look, "We have all heard about Silang's cases in Dongdu, Guangdu and Qingzhou Chengxian County. Thanks to Mrs. Lin's care along the way, this brat has just saved a life." Life." He said, holding up the teacup, "The Hua clan is extremely grateful, so I would like to offer tea instead of wine and give Mrs. Lin a cup of thanks!"
Lin Sui'an was flattered and hurriedly served tea to receive the gift, "Sanniang is in serious trouble, and Hua Yitang has also helped me a lot."
Hua Yimeng smiled and nodded, poured another glass and turned to Fang Ke, "Dr. Fang, I'd like to toast you too. It's not easy for you to tolerate this ungrateful brat. Thank you for your hard work!"
Fang Ke hurriedly grabbed the tea bowl and said dryly, "He is indeed out of tune."
Hua Yimeng raised her eyebrows in surprise, obviously not expecting Fang Ke to speak in this style.
Hua Yitang's face turned dark, and Lin Sui'an couldn't help laughing.
Dr. Fang's poisonous tongue will never disappoint anyone.
"Fortunately, sometimes it's reliable." Fang Ke said the second half of the sentence firmly.
Hua Yitang opened her fan with a "pop" and began to play, like a flower that shines brightly when given a little sunshine.
Hua Yimeng nodded with a smile and looked around, "Is there another Mr. Jin Ruo?"
"Well, he went to investigate the case -" Lin Sui'an didn't finish his sentence. Jin Ruo ran in like a divine soldier from heaven, grabbed a teacup and touched Hua Yimeng boldly, "Sanniang, you're welcome, Hua Young Master Yitang is careless, I am two years older than him, so taking care of him is just a trivial matter."
After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp, grabbed two steamed cakes and stuffed them into his mouth.
Hua Yitang's face turned dark again. Lin Sui'an had a hard time holding back his laughter.
"Hmm!" Hua Yitang smoothed his sleeves and said, "How did the Wu brothers' alibi check go?"
"Wu Zhengli's alibi is true. He was indeed at Fang Shiyi's mother's house in Hongxiangfang on the night of the incident," Jin Ruo said, "but Fang Shiyi's mother's house was not an ordinary brothel, but an underground gambling house. That night , Wu Zhengli and his gang of gangsters gambled all night long, and there are at least five or six croupiers who can testify."
Lin Sui'an frowned: In other words, Wu Zhengli is a gambler.
Hua Yitang snorted: "I went to the casino and didn't recognize my parents. If Wu Zhengli is really a gambler, I can't believe a word he says."
Lin Sui'an: "How is Wu Zhengqing?"
"The people who can testify for Wu Zhengqing are all government officials. I can't check it." Jin Ruo stuffed another steamed cake, "I can only rely on flowers to join the army."
Hua Yitang smiled slightly, "Ling Sizhi has gone, we just need to wait for the news."
Lin Sui'an nodded, "Mu Xia, prepare a gift for me. I'm going to Yidu Jingmen's altar."
Mu Xia: "Yes, Mrs. Lin."
"Jin Ruo, let's go together."
"Okay, Master." Jin Ruo took a plate of steamed cakes and poured it into his arms.
Hua Yitang suddenly became anxious, "I'll go too."
"You can't go." Fang Ke stopped at Hua Yitang and said, "I want to go to Lian Xiaoshuang's embroidery studio. You are joining the army for justice, so you can take me there."
Hua Yitang: "Eh?"
"Let's go!"
"No, wait a minute, eh, eh, eh, Dr. Fang, please don't tug on my sleeves. What I'm wearing today is made of a material that Hua Shiyu remembered. It's expensive, thin and brittle. It'll break if I'm not careful!"
The group of people left in a hurry, and Hua Yimeng held up an empty tea cup, feeling a little lost.
"Ita, Shiro has grown up."
"Um."
"Shiro has so many friends."
"Um."
"Shiro looks very happy."
"Um."
"Only that Ling Liulang is not right. His eyes are flickering and his appearance is suspicious. There must be something wrong in his heart!"
"..."
"Brother is right. Even though the Ling clan looks like a good person with thick eyebrows and big eyes, in fact, they are full of evil. Oh, my Shiro is so innocent and innocent, but he must not be deceived by the bad people of the Xingyang Ling clan. !”
"..."
Ita held back thousands of words of complaint in her heart, but she couldn't speak Tang language properly, so she could only stir her depression into the sticky tea soup:
Ling Liulang with thick eyebrows and big eyes is really a good person!
small theater
Ling Zhiyan: Sneeze, sneeze, sneeze! Could it be that you caught a cold when you had a nightmare last night? :,,
