I really don't want to read

"My master writes artistic calligraphy, you know what..."

Liu Wei snatched the note back:

"Brother Xian, shouldn't you ask who these two are?"

"Yes, who are these two?"

"Didn't you ask Li Chi and me to investigate Lin Ling's matter before? There are already some clues."

"Oh, what eyebrows?"

"That's eyebrows."

Liu Wei took out the note again, put it on the table and took another shot.

"After my inquiries, this Wu and Cao are the two people who are rumored to be secretly bullying the eldest sister..."

"Wait a minute..." Lin Xiaoxian smiled, "Elder Sister?"

"Why? Cailiu and CS are hard skills, so you have to obey!"

"Oh, you guys started playing cs too?"

Liu Wei rubbed his nose:

"Hey, brother Xian, do you want to get in the car too? I think you will be convinced by the strength of the eldest sister."

"Let's talk about this...Wu Na...Cao Li..."

Lin Xiaoxian wrote down the two names on the note, crumpled it up and threw it away.

Since it is a secret investigation, it is necessary to develop a good habit of destroying evidence.

"Besides this? Is there any other news?"

"It's gone for the time being. Manpower is limited. I asked Brother Chi to investigate with me yesterday, but...you know..."

After Liu Wei pouted, Lin Xiaoxian glanced in the direction, nodded understandingly, and then the two laughed together.

Li Chi, the object of their ridicule, was sitting upright at this moment, flipping through the physics textbook carefully, with a light called "knowledge" shining in his eyes.

This uncharacteristic situation has continued to this day since Li Chi was dragged to the office for execution that day.

Liu Wei went over cheaply and patted Li Chi on the shoulder:

"Brother Chi, what are you doing?"

Li Chi didn't lift his head:

"Don't make noise, I'm previewing the content of the next class."

"Wow~"

Liu Wei held his hands on his chin, showing "worshiping" eyes like a girl in Huaichun:

"Brother Chi, you look so handsome when you study hard."

"Can you be more reserved? Back off!"

Li Chi helped the air glasses that did not exist on the bridge of his nose, and then continued to indulge in the textbook.

"twitter..."

Liu Wei imitated the little eunuch in the palace drama of the Qing Dynasty and saluted, and was about to step back before returning:

"Brother Chi, there is something that I want to remind you."

"speak."

"The next lesson will talk about energy conservation. The circuit you previewed is the one we talked about in the last lesson..."

"Damn, don't tell me earlier!"

--------------------------------

After the physics class, Lin Xiaoxian did not rush home from school, but rushed to the junior high school.

With his speed, Lin Xiaoshu was stopped shortly after he came out of Class [-], Grade [-].

"My brother is here, let's take a step first, bye~"

After saying hello to his classmates, seeing his brother stretching out his arms consciously, Lin Xiaoshu smiled sweetly and put his arms together:

"Brother~ Pick me up again today, you won't want me to be a tool man again?"

"Since when did I use you as a tool..."

"Hmph, wasn't it the last time?"

Lin Xiaoshu remembered clearly that the whole school had a power outage that night, and Lin Xiaoxian also came to pick her up, but in the end he asked her to help carry things to the supermarket!

Having said that, Lin Xiaoxian is really a little embarrassed:

"Hey, little book, we don't go to the supermarket today...but..."

"but what..."

"But I have to go to the vegetable market... I also have to go to Hema Xiansheng..."

Sure enough, she was asked to carry something again!

Lin Xiaoshu was so angry that he clamped his brother's arm tightly.

"Be gentle, take it easy...Your arm is broken, you need to mention a few more things later..."

"Just mention it, I will kill you!"

Lin Xiaoshu's tone was harsh, but in fact not only could he not be pinched to death, but Lin Xiaoxian also pretended to be in pain.

Her slender arms were already weak, and her chest was even softer. After tossing for a long time, Lin Xiaoxian was fine, but her ribs were sore by Lin Xiaoxian's firm arms.

After some squabbling, Lin Xiaoshu panted, and squeezed Lin Xiaoxian's solid arm muscles in disbelief:

"Brother...you...when...so hard..."

"Are you scared? This is called hiding!"

Lin Xiaoxian rolled up his sleeves proudly, showing off his biceps.

Lin Xiaoshu felt strange.

The lines on my brother's arm don't seem to have changed much from before, they are still so well-proportioned and delicate, completely different from those strong men with burst veins on TV.

"Brother, let me touch it again."

"bring it on!"

As soon as Lin Xiaoxian exerted all his strength, his upper arm trembled slightly. Although it seemed that it was only a little bulging, Lin Xiaoshu was shocked as soon as he touched it.

"How about it?"

"Iron plate, so exaggerated..."

Lin Xiaoshu couldn't describe it. She suspected that if she stabbed her brother with a needle at this time, it would bend.

So Lin Xiaoshu sighed and was even more disappointed with his brother:

"You are so strong now, and you want me to help you lift things, it doesn't hurt me at all..."

"I have strength, but it's inconvenient to move too much, bumping everywhere."

"Tch, you have too many excuses..."

The destination of the two is the vegetable market first.

Lin Xiaoxian had already inquired from the market owner yesterday that a batch of particularly good fresh mutton would be delivered on the day of the winter solstice, so he stepped on the spot to buy it right now.

Generally until the winter solstice, dumplings are eaten in the north, while some southern cities have the habit of eating mutton.

It is said that this is because the weather will start to get cold after the winter solstice. If you eat mutton on this day, you will be warm all year round, which is also a good luck.

"Brother, why do we still eat mutton if we are not a southern city?"

"Although Rongcheng is not the south, the southwest is also the south."

"Then Chang'an City is in the northwest, so it's considered a northern city, right? Why do they eat mutton during the winter solstice?"

"According to local conditions, people not only eat mutton, but also dumplings, such as dumplings in sour soup, wrapped with fennel meat filling, maybe even more delicious than mutton."

"Then why did they..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Lin Xiaoshu kept asking some serious questions along the way, and Lin Xiaoxian patted her forehead:

"You, don't keep asking why, be careful to become Zhou Jia in the future."

"Zhou Jia?"

"Well, a friend... Hey look, here we are, that's the one."

There are many meat stalls in the market today that sell mutton.

The house Lin Xiaoxian chose was hidden in a corner. When he walked over and waved his hand, the boss with mustache smiled happily:

"Here comes the lad!"

"Well, let's talk about the price first."

"Oh, don't worry about the price. According to what I said yesterday, the hind legs are 45, and the ribs are 48..."

Next to the chopping board is an iron rack, on which several fresh mutton pieces are hung half by half. The boss is waving a butcher knife while gesturing for the parts and quoting prices.

After all, it is during the winter solstice, so it must be a little more expensive than usual, but it is still a dollar or two cheaper than other places.

And the most important thing is that the family that Lin Xiaoxian chose is indeed a good sheep.

Lin Xiaoshu didn't quite believe it, it was just mutton, and it didn't come from the far northern prairie, how high-quality could it be?

"Xiaoshu, you don't understand this. Beef and mutton are not only available in the grasslands. For example, what the owner sells today is the famous Hengshan mutton."

As the saying goes, the best mutton in Shaanxi is in northern Shaanxi, the best mutton in northern Shaanxi is in Yulin, and the best mutton in Yulin is in Hengshan.

How good the mutton is here is hard for Lin Xiaoxian to explain in a few words, so he told Lin Xiaoshu one thing anyway:

"The sheep in Hengshan grew up eating ground pepper. Do you know what ground pepper is?"

"do not know."

"The scientific name is thyme!"

Lin Xiaoshu blinked his eyes, gradually getting a little idea.

Growing up on spices, didn't the Hengshan sheep start to pickle themselves from the inside as soon as they were born?

It's really good enough.

It's no wonder such mutton tastes bad.

"Handsome guy, buy some stewed mutton soup?"

"It's mainly stewed, and another catty is left for frying, and another catty for braised."

"Have it."

Another advantage of vegetable markets over supermarkets is the existence of such "enthusiastic stall owners".

Lin Xiaoxian knows a thing or two about the parts of mutton required for different cooking methods, and the boss knows best.

Generally, you only need to tell him how to eat and report the required amount, and the boss will help you cut the most suitable parts.

Braised lamb shank and ribs, stir-fried tenderloin, braised neck...

While the boss was talking, he was skillfully cutting. After a while, the two cutting boards were full.

"Is the tenderloin cut?"

"cut."

"Sliced ​​or sliced?"

"Let's take a piece."

"Thicker and thinner?"
