Chapter 325 Female Butcher
"Tang Shunzhi?"
Jiang Qingzhi was a little surprised when he received the news that Tang Shunzhi wanted to meet him.
Although the School of Mind is not condemned by everyone now, it is still outside of orthodox Confucianism. No, it should be said that it is close yet distant.
Strictly speaking, Xu Jie could also be considered a disciple of the School of Mind. However, if Mr. Yangming knew what he said and did in his afterlife, he would probably get up and slap him to death.
"Reply to him, tonight!"
"it is good."
Xu Wei went to communicate with Shen Lian, while Jiang Qingzhi continued to prepare his delicious food in the kitchen.
"Uncle, are you ready?"
Changle was drooling at the side with his eyes wide open.
"Don't be impatient."
Jiang Qingzhi is baking glutinous rice cakes.
An iron net was placed on the charcoal fire, and the white glutinous rice cake was baked on it until it turned slightly yellow. A crack appeared on the surface, and a burst of hot air rushed up.
He turned it over, and when this side also cracked, Jiang Qingzhi took the glutinous rice cake out.
"Here, be careful, it's hot."
Jiang Qingzhi also took a glutinous rice cake, took a bite, dipped the mouthful in a small bowl filled with powdered perilla seeds, and took a big bite.
Salt and powdered sugar were added to the perilla seeds, and the flavor came out immediately.
Jiang Qingzhi savored it carefully, swallowed it, and glanced at his niece.
Changle was chewing with his cheeks puffed up. When he saw his uncle looking at him, he nodded vigorously and said vaguely, "Delicious!"
The fried perilla seeds have their own fragrance, supplemented by a sweet and salty taste, plus the rich aroma of glutinous rice cakes...
The uncle and nephew sat there, roasting and eating. When Li Tian saw them, their stomachs were already full.
"This is glutinous food! It's hard to digest!" Li Tian had a headache and quickly asked the cook to boil hawthorn water to help digestion.
But in a flash, she sat down, picked up a roasted glutinous rice cake, peeled off the skin, and the glutinous rice cake was soft and sticky. After dipping it in perilla seeds, she took a bite, and her eyebrows were curved...
So later in the evening, the three of them lay down on the lounge chairs in the yard.
"Meow!"
Duoduo's voice was not right. Jiang Qingzhi opened his eyes and saw a piece of glutinous rice cake stuck on its paw, which was constantly shaking.
"I've never seen such a greedy cat!" Jiang Qingzhi laughed, "The glutinous rice cake was reserved for Xu Wei, but now it's gone."
Xu Wei is a delicious food, and meeting Jiang Qingzhi, the gourmet boss, is like a fish in water.
……
"How much does a bowl cost?"
Xu Wei is buying food at the moment.
This is a small market that was spontaneously organized, not far from the alley where the Jiang family lived. At first, it was just farmers carrying vegetables grown by themselves to sell, but later it gradually became a large-scale market, selling chickens, ducks, fish and meat.
There was someone selling pork nearby, but the butcher was actually a woman. Xu Wei couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.
The butcher held the butcher knife in her hand and chopped the ribs easily. She was surprisingly pretty. But her expression was cold. Perhaps she felt Xu Wei's gaze, and she glanced at him.
Xu Wei coughed dryly and took the cooling soup handed to him by the vendor.
"Take a sip of the sweet and sour taste, it will stimulate your appetite and nourish your spleen." The vendor raised his eyebrows at Xu Wei obscenely, "Sir, are you interested in the pork beauty?"
"Pork Xishi?"
"The most beautiful girl in our market is Yang Zhaodi," the vendor said, "but don't blame me for not reminding you. This woman is fierce and she said she wanted to find a son-in-law to take care of his parents. Sir, you..."
The vendor shook his head, thinking that Xu Wei was not Yang Zhaodi's type.
Xu Wei was about to speak when he saw the vendor looking behind him in horror.
In an instant, Xu Wei threw the bowl behind him and then rolled forward...
A man behind him was holding a knife and stabbing someone, his face was covered with the summer heat soup. He wiped his face and grinned, "Xu Wei, die!"
Damn it!
Xu Wei climbed up using his hands and feet, cursing: "You bastard, how dare you kill someone in broad daylight..."
He fled forward, but there were many people in front of him. Moreover, the people in the capital were very brave, and when they saw someone chasing Xu Wei, they did not run away, but gathered together to watch the excitement.
Xu Wei couldn't turn back, so he had to hide around the pork stall.
The so-called pork stall is just a chopping board with heart, liver, stomach, lungs and pork placed on it.
The butcher said as she chopped the ribs: "Get out of here!"
The man turned a deaf ear and chased after him.
The two of them kept running around the stall.
Soon Xu Wei was out of breath and his legs were weak. At this moment, he deeply regretted not learning martial arts from Sun Chonglou.
Seeing that the man was about to catch up, Xu Wei picked up a piece of pig lung and smashed it.
The man stopped and dodged, and Xu Wei successfully distanced himself from him.
The butcher girl looked up and said, "My pig lungs!"
"I'll pay!"
Xu Wei panted and said as he ran, "Help me report to the police."
At this moment, the man suddenly jumped onto the chopping board, grinning, "Grandpa, let's see where you can escape!"
Xu Wei looked around and found that there was no way to escape. He stopped and tried to grab the butcher knife from the butcher. He held the butcher's hand and...
Try harder!
The butcher knife didn't move at all.
Just as the man was overjoyed and ready to attack, the female butcher looked up and said, "You are stepping on my pig's heart."
The man cursed: "Bitch, get out of here!"
The sword flashed.
Pfft!
One man fell onto the chopping board.
Just like a pig.
Xu Wei stopped and stared at the man falling on the chopping board. "Bitch!" The man tried to get up, but as soon as he exerted force, the butcher knife passed over his wrist, and the man's hand softened for no reason and he fell down again.
The man cursed and tried to kick him, but found that his feet were weak.
He raised his hand and saw a cut on his wrist, with the tendons and tendons exposed.
The cut was neither too deep nor too shallow, just enough to cut the tendons in his hand, while the previous cut just cut the tendons in his foot.
"Save me!" the man shouted.
The knife flashed, and with a thud, the butcher knife brushed the man's neck and chopped heavily into the chopping board.
Yang Zhaodi turned around and held out her hand, "Give me the money."
Xu Wei shuddered, "How much? No, let me see how much."
He took out his purse and handed it all to Yang Zhaodi without even looking at it.
Yang Zhaodi opened her purse and said, "You two trampled on my pig's lungs and heart, so I had to sell them to people to feed the dogs. Is it okay for me to give you a 70% discount?"
"No, no problem!" Xu Wei shook his head like a rattle.
"Also, this person is holding my pork. One hundred dollars is not too much, right?"
"Not much. Too little."
"Let me see, it's actually silver coins." Yang Zhaodi shouted to the back: "Boss Ma, change the money."
A big man with his shirt open walked out of the crowd, "How much?"
"Weigh it yourself." Yang Zhaodi threw the silver coin over.
The big man took a look at the silver coins and turned into the crowd.
Xu Wei saw the man actually used his other hand to grab the butcher knife, so he pointed at him and said, "That thief is going to grab the knife."
Yang Zhaodi turned around, grabbed the man's collar, and lifted him up with a sudden force, turning him over. She pulled out the butcher knife with one hand and cut the tendons of the man's other hand with one stroke.
Do!
Yang Zhaodi put the butcher knife into the chopping board again, clapped her hands, and shouted: "Fresh pork! I ate a lot of pig food last night..."
The troops from the military arrived and after some questioning, the leader of the flag officers realized that something serious had happened and quickly sent someone to report the incident. He then walked towards Xu Wei and said, "Mr. Xu, I think you'd better go back as soon as possible."
"Hmm?" Xu Wei still had to go to Shen's house, and looked around after hearing that.
"If this kind of people act in the open, there must be someone watching this place in the dark." Xiaoqi whispered, "If you are worried, I am willing to send Mr. Xu back."
"Stay here." Yang Zhaodi slapped the table. "Five cents is enough to send a child to report the news and call for help."
Tsk!
Xiao Qi looked at Yang Zhaodi, "You are an ignorant person... that's all. It's useless to tell you this."
Xu Wei readily followed the advice and spent five cents to hire a half-grown child to go to the Bo's house to deliver the message.
"What are you doing in the uncle's house?" Yang Zhaodi had nothing to do at the moment, so she sat down and chatted with him.
"Just taking care of a bunch of things."
"So he's the steward." Yang Zhaodi asked, "Who does the Bo's Mansion buy pork from every day? Is it better than mine?"
This... Xu Wei wanted to say he didn't know, but he felt a little shameless. "I'll ask later. If it's possible, I'll let them buy from you."
"No problem. I will definitely be honest with you." Yang Zhaodi patted her chest. The experienced Xu Wei took a look and roughly estimated the range. He secretly praised her while trying to find a way to be happy.
"By the way, where is your husband?" Xu Wei felt that it was a bit outrageous for a woman to come out to sell pork.
"No man." Yang Zhaodi said lightly.
"Where are my brothers?" Xu Wei felt that this family was a little weird.
"No brothers."
It seems that the name Zhaodi is no longer used.
Sun Bu Tong rushed over with his men, and was relieved to see that Xu Wei was safe and sound.
"I'll come back to thank you later." Xu Wei bowed and thanked him solemnly.
"You're welcome. You bought my pig lungs and pig hearts, so it's my duty." Yang Zhaodi shouted to the people around her.
It was as if he had just swatted a fly.
When Tang Shunzhi saw Xu Wei, he was also frightened by his miserable appearance.
"Those people started to take action." Xu Wei briefly described the dangers encountered during this trip, and finally said, "Master said we will meet tonight."
"They actually took action." Tang Shunzhi said, "It seems those people can't hold back any longer."
Shen Lian said: "This is just the beginning."
"It also shows that those people are guilty." Tang Shunzhi laughed heartily and said, "Tell Chang Wei Bo that I will come tonight."
When Xu Wei returned, Sun Bu Tong had already reported his danger to him.
"Investigate!" Jiang Qingzhi seemed calm, but Hu Zongxian turned around and said to Xu Wei: "Someone is going to die!"
"It's time for several people to die." Xu Wei couldn't help but feel scared when he thought of the previous danger.
……
"It's a failure!"
There is a private school next to Lu Mi Cang, not far from Chaoyang Gate. The school is not big, but at this afternoon, the sound of reading is still loud.
Fang Zhuo, who is over 30 years old, is the owner of this private school.
"The man was confident, but a butcher intervened and ruined the plan halfway." Chen Zhan is a disciple of a great Confucian scholar with outstanding skills. This time he was arranged to work together with Fang Zhuo to plan something.
"Butcher?"
"Yes, the female butcher! In addition, Xu Wei went to Shen Lian's place, and someone saw Tang Shunzhi escort him out."
"When did Tang Shunzhi come to the capital?"
"Just arrived a few days ago."
"After Xu Wei was assassinated, he still went to Tang Shunzhi, which shows that it was Jiang Qingzhi... Could it be that the School of Mind wanted to merge with the Mohist School?"
The two looked at each other.
"Keep an eye on Tang Shunzhi!"
"That female butcher..."
