After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister Chapter 17

    Soon, the situation was under control.

    When I asked about the situation, it was actually a fight for a few steamed buns.

    In order to survive, what is courtesy and integrity?

    Master Zeng was lazy to break up the lawsuit for them, and everyone who did it took ten whips, and he said harshly, "If I see someone fighting again, I will be fined for two days without food."

    This is scarier than any punishment.

    The feeling of being hungry will drive people crazy, and after two days without food, they have to walk dozens of miles, and they will be disabled if they are not dead.

    Everyone was silent and obedient like sheep.

    Master Zeng returned to his original position. Looking at the smiling Mu Wanqing, he said, "Well, I can only give you one more place, otherwise I will not be able to convince the public."

    The sky is full of bids, and the price is on the ground.

    Mu Wanqing pondered for a while.

    "That's great, thank you sir, my father and brother are both honest and careless people who are always bullied. Please take care of me in the future."

    This has been seen long ago, otherwise Lord Zeng would not dare to remove their shackles.

    Tsk tsk tsk, the two people in the second room don't have as many people as Mu Wanqing.

    There is no girl more clever than her in the entire Mu family.

    "With you, who can bully them? It's a blessing for the Mu family to have you."

    Smart, capable, and short-sighted, I really want to have such a daughter, even a daughter-in-law.

    Unfortunately, his son is still young, and the two are not well-matched in age.

    Mu Wanqing suddenly said, "I have two more requests."

    "Qing'er." Second Master Mu was very worried, for fear that she would offend the official.

    Master Zeng looked at her fixedly, "Tell me, I may not agree."

    Mu Wanqing patted her father's arm, silently comforting, "First, our family of five will eat together, everyone will save trouble, of course, my family will not take advantage of yours, and give them to you every day. A tael of silver for food."

    One tael of silver is not a small amount, enough for an ordinary family of five to eat for several days, but it's not like that.

    Eating with the official clerk, you can eat hot meals and dishes without worrying about what to eat every day, and it also acts as a deterrent.

    If you want to bully their second room, you must first consider the officials behind you.

    This is called pulling the flag and making the tiger skin.

    Master Zeng pondered for a while, guessed her devious thoughts, and had to admit that there is a gap between people.

      "Row."

    It's not good to eat and drink, but as long as the money is reasonable, he has no reason to refuse.

    Mu Wanqing has no salary, so she has to fight for the interests of her employees. "Second, what do you live in, what do I live in, in the same way, I will pay for the cost."

    She doesn't want to squeeze a room with too many people, she wants to sleep on a clean bed every day, and occasionally take a hot bath.

    As for my father and brothers, they just sleep on the floor.

     Mr. Zeng was very cheerful, "Yes."

    The food and lodging have been settled, and Mu Wanqing has lost most of her worries and has more confidence in the future.

    As for who to choose, Mu Wanqing did not make her own decision, but let her family make the decision.

    The brothers of the Mu family were very pleasantly surprised. Is there such a good thing?

    However, they are very humble and give each other the opportunity.

    One is the eldest brother who wants to let the younger brother and sister, the other is the order of the elders, the elder brother's turn is the first.

    The husband and wife of Erye Mu are in a dilemma. The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat. This is a dilemma.

     Mu Wanqing was very satisfied when she saw that they were all humble to each other. "Actually, it only takes a few more days and I can get the other one out of the shackles too."

    This time everyone believed it, and the facts were right in front of you.

    Mu Zicheng is the eldest son of the second room, he is weaker, not as strong as mu Ziang, so he was chosen.

    This time, the convict is in a frying pan, one is enough, how can there be another? Why?

    Master Zeng looked light, "Just because Miss Mu San wants to cook for us, Mu Zicheng is her helper, and Mu Zhongping is to help us deal with trivial matters in our lives."

    Someone exclaimed unwillingly, "We can cook too, why don't you pick me?"

    The chef spit out coolly, "Who told you not to behave?"

    The reason is so strong that everyone is speechless.

    Old Mrs. Mu told herself not to carry it with Mu Wanqing, but, seeing the second room getting better and worse, the jealousy in her heart grew like weeds.

    Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows, did she remember to eat or not? Or is it because she can't beat the old lady?

    "Lord Zeng, Mrs. Mu doesn't like you very much, and scolded you for not being a good person."

    She's a little tired, so she won't start directly, and use her strength.

    Master Zeng looked over with a hesitant expression, Old Madam Mu poured it down from her head like a basin of cold water, her mind was clear, and she was also afraid, "I don't, you are talking nonsense."

    Mu Wanqing just smiled politely, "What kind of person does flattery describe? What kind of person is acceptable?"

    A traitor! They are all bad guys!

    The old lady Mu wanted to understand this, her face turned green, she didn't think too much.

    Master Zeng glanced at the sky, "It seems that you are too full, so let's walk to eliminate food."

    As soon as he beat the gong and drum, everyone got up and set off.

    Old Mrs. Mu's eyes darkened, she almost fainted and wanted to die!

    But she didn't dare not to listen, so she had to get out of the car and walk. After walking for a while, she was out of breath, sweating profusely, and kept begging for mercy.

    She had been in prison and thought it was the worst in the world, but now she found out that it was not.

    The officials didn't answer her, so she had to bribe the officials with money, and after a long time of begging, she asked Master Zeng to let go.

    "You can take the car tomorrow."

    Old Mrs. Mu was half worried and half happy, "Then today..."

    Uncle Mu gave her a wink, "Mother, stop talking, I'll help you go."

    She challenged the authority of others, and they were determined to teach her a lesson and make her stand up.

    Old Mrs. Mu had never walked so far, fainted several times, and was woken up by cold water.

    Wake up and keep walking, no negotiation unless you die on the road.

    Not letting her go because of her old age and frailty made all the exiles shudder.

    Don't offend the officials!

    This is the first time that Mr. Zeng has shown his cold side, scaring the exiles.

    The old lady Mu regrets so much, why can't she control her mouth? But as soon as she saw Mu Wanqing, she was furious and wanted to tear her face off.

    She realized once again that she was no longer an old lady of Jin Gui's official family, but an outcast who was destined to die.

    In the end, she was supported by her children and grandchildren to complete the journey. The old lady Mu walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and her whole body was floating, and the pain was numb.

    Seeing the gate of the inn from a distance, the old lady Mu finally fainted with confidence, which made the Mu family jump.

    Entering the station, the official asked for a few ordinary rooms, one for a few people.

    According to the negotiated conditions, Mu Wanqing can pay for a room by herself.

    She never wronged herself, how she felt comfortable.

    But you will also pay attention to the proportions, and will not exceed the standard of food and accommodation for officials, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

    Mu Wanqing was called to work in the kitchen before she could wash up.

    She washed her hands cleanly, twisted her hair, and her every move was solemn.

    It is a sense of ritual.

    The guy couldn't tell what it was, but he was shocked inside.

    The peanuts and sesame seeds are ready. Mu Wanqing first fiddles with the camellia noodles, while teaching Mu Erye and Mu Zicheng how to do it.

    The two listened very attentively, and Erye Mu was still repeating it, for fear that he would forget.

    Second Master Mu can do carpentry work, his hands are very dexterous, and he was a little clumsy at the beginning, but what Mu Wanqing ordered can always be done.

    However, this process is not very smooth.

    Mu Zicheng was far behind, his hands were not so flexible, and sometimes he would be a disservice, so Mu Wanqing simply drove him to start the fire.

    It takes twenty minutes to stir-fry the flour, and the hands cannot stop. It is a meticulous work.

    This has no technical content in the first place. To make it delicious, the key is the heat and proportion of frying.

    Mu Wanqing can control the whole process.

    And she started making dinner, with fresh pork belly and eggs, then made a braised pork stew with eggs.

    Wash the pork belly and put it in cold water, then add wild **** and green onion, but unfortunately there is no cooking wine.

    "Brother, let's make a fire."

    In fact, burning fire is also a technical task. It was the first time mu Zicheng came into contact with him, and the cook helped him to start the fire.

    The meat is cooked and picked up, cut into square pieces, each piece is about the same size.

    The eggs are also cooked and peeled for later use.

      After frying the fragrance, pour the water in, the water should cover the pork belly, and then put the round eggs in. Then she covered the pot, boiled it on high heat, and simmered it on a low heat, the meat fragrance came out a little bit.

    Taking advantage of this time, she stir-fried a pot of green vegetables, the braised pork was too greasy, and served with a vegetarian dish, the combination of meat and vegetables was the most reasonable.

    When the vegetables are out of the pot, the color is emerald green and looks very attractive.

    Deputy Team Li smelled the smell and came in. He was stunned when he saw the vegetables. He only liked meat and not vegetables, but when he saw this plate of vegetables, he couldn't help swallowing.

    "I'll try the dishes."

    He was shocked, this is green vegetables? If green vegetables taste like this, he likes it too.

    The chef quickly grabbed the chopsticks and was stunned.

    "Miss Mu San, how can I keep it from yellowing and still maintain the crispy taste?"

    Mu Wanqing patiently mentioned, "This is a test of the chef's mastery of the heat and requires practice. The most critical step is to cover the pot and simmer for a while when it is half cooked, so that the water can be drained. fully locked.”

    "Also, don't put the salt too early, add it before the pot, it will keep the taste more tender."

    The chef thinks she is the best girl in the world, so grateful, "Understood, thank you Miss San."

    From now on, this is his master, a teacher for one day and a father for a lifetime.

    Hey, there seems to be something wrong?

      "It's ready to serve."

    Before the pot came out, Vice Team Li was dazed by the fragrance, and took a chopstick and stuffed it into his mouth.

    Fat but not greasy, soft but not rotten, melts in your mouth, delicious flying.

    "Well, Miss San, you are this." He swallowed a mouthful of braised pork and gave a thumbs up, his eyes full of surprises.

    From today onwards, this is his own sister, half-sister!

    Mu Wanqing took her own portion and brought her father and brother back to the room to eat.

    At the moment of food, who still talks about the rules.

    Each bowl of rice has a spoonful of rich soup, a spoonful of braised pork, a spoonful of fried vegetables, and an egg.

    Braised eggs are golden in color and gorgeous in color, full of gravy, and salty and fragrant.

     "Everything is delicious. Miss Mu San's cooking skills are so amazing that she can open a store."

    "I see, she can enter the palace as a royal chef. It's really delicious. She boasts that she is a little fairy. I don't think there is anything wrong with her."

    "Head, let her be the cook, it's the best decision you made."

    After dinner, everyone was chatting.

    Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "Ah, my purse is gone! There are a dozen taels of silver in it."

    Everyone was startled, "Look again."

    Master Zeng held his shoulders, "Don't worry, first think about when you lost it? Maybe it will land at this inn, and we will find it separately."

    On the other side, the second housekeeper of the Mu family enjoyed a beautiful dinner, and after eating, Mu Zicheng volunteered to go out to wash the dishes.

    As soon as he walked out the door, he saw something on the ground, he squatted down to pick it up.

    Hey, it's a rough purse with nothing in it.

    Who dropped this?

    A burst of hurried footsteps sounded in his ear, and mu Zicheng raised his head subconsciously.

    It was a few officials, their stunned eyes fell on the purse in his... hands.
