Shen Yao turned around and sat on the rattan chair, sighing softly.
The current Sun family had monstrous power. It was very difficult to overthrow the Sun family with just that ledger.
Shen Yao, who was deep in thought, frowned thoughtfully. His slender fingers landed on the table at the side, making a rhythmic sound.
He thought for a moment and briefly explained the origin of the ledger.
‘Miss Fengdie of the Wind and Moon Restaurant shouldn’t have died by accident.” Shen Yao thought for a moment and looked up at the silent Qin Minghong. He asked softly, “1 wonder if Young Master can help me again?
‘You want to find out the cause of the courtesan’s death?” Qin Minghong instantly understood what he was thinking.
‘Yes.” Shen Yao nodded and said, “It’s never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Moreover, I have plenty of time to search for evidence of the Sun family’s crimes. As the saying goes, things will be released after accumulation.
When the time is right, I’ll think of a way to list all the evidence of the Sun
family’s crimes. As the saying goes, things will be released after accumulation.
When the time is right, I’ll think of a way to list all the evidence of the Sun family’s crimes!”
Hearing this, Qin Minghong’s eyes were filled with admiration.
Shen Yao was patient enough.
‘Back then, GoujianO suffered a lot and finally succeeded in his revenge. He relied on the word ‘endure’.” Qin Minghong could not help but praise, “Shen Yao, you’re very powerful.”
‘Young Master, you flatter me.” Shen Yao sighed softly. “I’m not holding back. I just know my limits.’
With his current strength, going against the Sun family was no different from throwing an egg at a rock.
At the same time, in the Shen family’s kitchen.
After Ji Zhao prepared all the side dishes, she took out the small clay pots that she had ordered before the New Year.
‘Ah Tao? Why do you have so many clay pots?” Zhao Lanhua could not help but ask, “When you bought so many clay pots back, I wanted to ask. We have clay pots at home!”
‘Mother, the reason why I prepared so many clay pots is because I plan to make clay pot rice!” Ji Zhao explained with a smile. “Although this clay pot is a little small, it will be of great use later!”
‘Mother, help me wash the rice and soak it in water!” Ji Zhao said with a smile. Then, he rolled up her sleeves and began to work.
She quickly dealt with the wild rabbit. After removing the rabbit’s head, she began to deal with the rabbit meat and cut all the rabbit meat into pieces.
‘Ah Tao, you’re so lucky!” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen, who was helping to burn the firewood, couldn’t help but laugh. “Every time Ah Tao goes to the back mountains, you won’t return empty-handed!”
Ji Zhao smiled faintly, but she had already made up her mind. After the clay pot rice was ready, she would go to the Earth Temple to pay her respects to the Earth God.
After all, her good luck was brought about by the Earth God!
As a person, the most important thing was to repay kindness!
In addition to the clay pot rice, Ji Zhao also planned to make a few side dishes. The main event was the spicy rabbit!
She cut the rabbit meat into cubes, cut the dried peppers into segments, and washed the ginger and garlic.
When the oil in the pot was 50% hot, she fried the rabbit cubes until the surface was golden. She immediately fished them out and began to stir-fry the spices.
Soon, the kitchen was filled with a fragrant and spicy smell!
In order to make the color of this dish even better, Ji Zhao added half a spoonful of chili sauce personally made by Zhao Lanhua!
That fragrant and spicy smell drifted all the way into the Shen family’s central room.
The men who were playing leaf cards swallowed their saliva at the same time.
‘This is too fragrant!” Eldest Brother Shen could not help but take a deep breath. “Third Sister-in-law must have made delicious food again!’ ‘Third Brother said that he and Third Sister-in-law caught a wild rabbit in the back mountains. This fragrance… It must be spicy rabbit!” Second Brother Shen said confidently.
‘Smelling this fragrance, I actually feel a little hungry.” Second Manager You laughed self-deprecatingly. “I’m not afraid of being laughed at, but I ate a whole bowl of Egg-Fried Rice this morning!”
‘Hahaha, Second Manager You, you must be hungry from the smell!” Brother Shen teased with a smile. “It’s just that Third Sister-in-law’s cooking is extraordinary. I think not only are you hungry, but we’re also hungry!”
Shen Dashan and Second Brother Shen nodded silently.
In addition to the spicy rabbit, Ji Zhao made another pickled fish, century egg tofu, and fried peanuts!
In addition, she also made scallion oil chicken and vermicelli steamed pork ribs.
Halfway through the afternoon, six exquisite dishes were served on the red square table in the central room.
Shen Dashan even specially took a jar of rice wine that he had kept for five years!
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere became even more lively!
Qin Minghong and Second Manager You were talkative people to begin with. More importantly, they did not put on airs in front of the Shen family, so everyone chatted happily.
While everyone was happily eating, Ji Zhao returned to the kitchen.
To her relief, the claypot rice was a success!
She put a portion of sausage claypot rice into a food box and hurried out of the Shen family’s courtyard.
She taught quickly and arrived at the Earth Temple in a short while.
After respectfully serving an incense stick of incense, she placed the clay pot rice on the altar. ‘Earth God, this is clay pot rice made by your devotee herself. It tastes very good. Remember to try it when you’re free!”
‘Thank you for giving me the ability to foresee danger,” Ji Zhao, who was kneeling on the praying mat, said with heartfelt gratitude.
After kowtowing three times sincerely, Ji Zhao left with the food box.
However, she vaguely felt that someone was following behind her. However, when she suddenly turned around, there was no one behind her.
The more Ji Zhao thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. She immediately quickened her pace and rushed back to the Shen family’s courtyard.
At that moment, Shen Yao was about to go out to look for her. When he saw her flustered and anxious expression, he hurriedly came forward and asked with concern, “Ah Tao, what’s wrong?
‘I
l… I feel like someone is following me.” Ji Zhao frowned and grabbed Shen Yao’s sleeve nervously.
‘Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” Shen Yao held her hand and comforted her softly. “Father and Mother said that your claypot rice is very delicious. Second Brother You was about to ask you about your claypot rice. Why don’t you go back to the central room first?”
‘Okay.”
After being comforted by Shen Yao, Ji Zhao felt less nervous.
She forced a smile and nodded obediently. After adjusting her emotions, she returned to the central room.
At the same time, Shen Yao walked out of the Shen family’s courtyard.
He stood outside the door and looked around. In the end, he sneered and smiled.
He picked up a tree branch on the ground and rushed towards the southeast!
The man in black who was hiding on the roof of the house did not expect the other party to be so sharp. He subconsciously dodged, but his identity was immediately exposed!
“Why are you following my wife so sneakily?” In just two rounds, the branch in Shen Yao’s hand had already landed on the man in black’s throat.
