The Taibaiju water leakage case started very suddenly and ended very suddenly.

The work of clearing the fire scene was not carried out quickly. Most of the people living in the restaurant were businessmen from all over the world. The disaster happened, and no one even knew the names of the wreckage in the ruins. Kaifeng Mansion was in charge of mediating the cleaning and burial. .The affected pharmacy and rice shop next to the restaurant also had their houses repaired. It is said that the reclusive shopkeeper in Taibaiju escaped unharmed. Neighbors share their worries.

Kaifeng Mansion seems to have little to say about the fire.And after the fire scene was cleaned up, a new restaurant was built on top of the ruins of the restaurant. It is said that a man named Bai from the south of the Yangtze River wanted to rebuild Taibai Residence in memory of his old friend, so he bought it with a lot of money. the land.It's just that this place was burned and many people died, it may be an ominous place, and everyone will inevitably talk about it.But since this Lord Bai is determined to build it, and he has no shortage of money in his pocket, no one will say no to money.

Kaifeng City is particularly easy to forget the old things, and it is also very easy to accept the new things.In time, Taibaiju must be located on the streets of Kaifeng again, just like before.This is not a big deal for the people of Kaifeng City.

The weather is getting cooler gradually, and the shadow left by the fire seems to gradually fade away in the cool breeze of August.

Except for a few people in Kaifeng Mansion, no one knew that there was another hidden story behind the fire.

It's just that what they know is very little.

In the ruins of the restaurant, apart from the scorched corpses scattered everywhere due to the explosion, the scorched broken wood, and the scorched and deformed furniture, there were no valuable clues left behind, as if the fire was so thorough that it destroyed Everything that should not be destroyed, and what should be destroyed.

As for the shopkeeper in the restaurant, apart from the wooden shopkeeper who was said to have escaped by going out, someone also mentioned that in the early morning of the second day after the fire, someone saw the shopkeeper in the restaurant, Dou Zi.

The Kaifeng government sent people to search the whole city, but no trace of Dou Zi was found.Some people said that the Kaifeng government released the news that Douzi, the guy in the restaurant, might have colluded with gangsters in the Jianghu to set fire to the murder.

The case of water leakage in the restaurant was concluded like this, it seemed to be very peaceful and complete.

Therefore, in such a calm and peaceful atmosphere, Kaifeng City ushered in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

*******************************************************************************

Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as Qiuxi, August Festival, and Girl's Day.Since the Tang Dynasty, the Mid-Autumn Festival has been a very grand festival of the year. From the princes and grandchildren to the poor in the back alleys, on August [-]th, everyone enjoys the moon and welcomes the festival. story.During Renzong's reign, Kaifeng, Tokyo was the capital, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was extremely prosperous.

Meng Yuanlao's "Tokyo Menghualu" said: "On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, your family decorates terraces and pavilions, and the folks compete to occupy restaurants and enjoy the moon."; Outside the cloud. The children in the room, the wedding drama all night long; the night market in Piantian, as for understanding."

Wu Zimu's "Meng Liang Lu" also said: "At this time, the golden wind is refreshing, the jade dew is cool, the sweet osmanthus is fragrant, and the silver toad is full. Wang Sungongzi, the rich and powerful families will climb dangerous buildings, play with the moon in Linxuan, or open Guangxie, A tortoise banquet is arranged, the harp is clanging, the wine is sung and sang, to predict the joy of the evening. As far as the house of spreading the mat, they also board the small platform, arrange family banquets, gather around the children, and repay the festival. Although the poor people in the back alleys , Jie Nong market wine, reluctant to welcome, refused to waste. This night, the sky street business, until the five drums, tourists playing with the moon, mother-in-law in the market, until the fire is endless."

During the Song Dynasty, the grand occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival can be seen.

In Kaifeng Mansion, everyone's Mid-Autumn Festival is also a special experience.

Zhao Hu, who came back from patrolling the streets early, was full of cakes and caramels from Aunt Wang on the East Street and Mama Zhang on the West Street. He also had a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine from the old restaurant Boss Yi hanging in his waist. , as if begging for a wife, was stopped by Zhang Long and joked for a while.It's just that Zhao Hu's excitement was not affected at all. He walked to the kitchen excitedly and said, "I'll let the cook cook the pastries and wine to warm them up in the evening, then tear up half a chicken, cut a plate of sausage, and beat a piece of meat." Tooth fight."

Zhang Long shook his head helplessly in the back: "Huzi, you really treat this place as a restaurant..."

It's just that Zhao Hu didn't see the cook in the kitchen. The two people standing in front of the stove with flour all over their faces, one is wheat peng and the other is wood quinoa.

The second monk Zhao Huzhang couldn't figure it out, but he still scratched his head and said, "Where is the cook? What are you two doing here?"

What responded to him was Mai Peng and Mu Chen in unison:

"Captain Zhao, judge the truth!"

As soon as Zhao Hu hummed, the scene fell into a certain chaos.Mai Peng and Mu Li spoke at the same time, their voices were not low.What Mai Peng said was: "Captain Zhao, the cook asked us to make some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. I said that to make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, of course it must be made with sweet-scented osmanthus fillings. Miss Mu must add some miscellaneous things to it. What do you say?" What's the reason for this?" What Mu Li said was: "Brother Zhao, tell me, where is there an osmanthus cake with only osmanthus flowers in it? What's the taste like? I've agreed that I will adjust the filling and he will mix the noodles. Look, he will catch it again. Such a big handful of sugar comes in..."

Immediately afterwards, the two completely ignored Zhao Hu and started a head-to-head confrontation. Mu Li put his hands on his hips and said aggressively, "What are miscellaneous things? Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. Sesame and honey are soft and nourishing things. They are delicious and nourishing." Stomach, why can’t it be added to the stuffing?” Mai Peng refused to give in: “Osmanthus cake is the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, how can you still have the original taste when you add these things in?” He was dismissed with a word of wood quinoa: “Honey is Why doesn’t the sweet-scented osmanthus taste like sweet-scented osmanthus? It tastes better than adding a pot of brown sugar to it, and you’re not afraid of getting angry. I’ve agreed that I’ll adjust the stuffing, can you not meddle in it?” Mai Peng followed the argument: “I’ve been doing it for so many years Osmanthus cake has never seen you do this."

…………

Seeing that the two were getting more and more noisy, Zhao Hu, one head and three big ones, just wanted to put down his things and turn around and run away, but just as soon as he put down the pastry and wine pot, the wood quinoa rushed to him with a sweet scent of sweet-scented osmanthus, and said loudly: "Brother Zhao, please comment." Behind Mai Peng, not to be outdone, shouted: "Brother Zhao, tell me."

Zhao Hu took three or four steps back, scratched his head and laughed, "Osmanthus cake is delicious, I like it any way..."

Muchen gritted his teeth, Mr. Gongsun had just left, and he ran into another one who was messy. Is there anyone else who can uphold justice?After thinking for a while, he said, "Where's Zhan Zhao? Let him judge!"

Mai Peng was almost annoyed: "You still dare to bother Brother Zhan, Brother Zhan won't take sides regardless of reason!"

Mu Li glared at him, "It's good that you know he won't take sides with you."

Seeing that a new round of quarrel was about to start, Zhao Hu quickly opened his mouth and ended their quarrel with one sentence, he said: "Stop arguing, Brother Zhan is in the palace, and he may not be able to come back tonight... ..."

Muqin and Maipeng were silent for a moment at the same time, and then said in unison again: "What is he doing in the palace?"

That aura was as if he was about to copy someone and beat someone up. It wasn't Zhao Hu's fault that Zhan Zhao didn't come back. Zhao Hu took another three or four steps back, and stepped out of the kitchen with one foot. Only then did he feel safer, and said: " Big Brother Zhan followed Lord Bao to the palace for a Mid-Autumn Moon Appreciation Party, it seemed to be a gimmick thought up by the Emperor’s father on a whim, hehe, I heard from the Dynasty that it was actually a blind date arranged by the Emperor’s father.”

We agreed to have a reunion together for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then go to some damn blind date meeting. Mu Li frowned, and suddenly lost interest, and stopped arguing with Mai Peng. However, the sesame and sweet-scented osmanthus honey were still available. Mai Peng watched from the side, but didn't say anything else, and went to make peace with his face.

Peace was suddenly restored in the kitchen, and Zhao Hu couldn't get used to it all of a sudden. After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't realize that his words just now made the two of them stop making peace. Let's go first. By the way, the boss of the old restaurant Yi gave a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus, I put it here, and I will greet the cook Wen Yiwen later... Oh, Wang Chao said, he wants to eat shredded chicken and sausages, hehe , he is just greedy for things, so what... I, I will go first."

After Zhao Hu left, the kitchen fell into an eerie silence. Mai Peng and the two of them sighed, and finally said sullenly: "Do you think Brother Zhan will bring a wife with him when he comes back?"

Muchen gritted his teeth and pounded the stuffing, as if he had some deep hatred for the sesame osmanthus in the bowl, and it took him a long time to reply: "It's better to bring it back, it's better to be a tigress..."

************************************************** *******

When eating in the evening, the Kaifeng Mansion set up a few tables of family banquets in the courtyard, one table for officers and policemen, one table for maids and servants, and Gongsun Ce, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others brought a table with wooden quinoa.Everyone watched the moon while eating, Gongsun Ce was skillful, and tied up a few lanterns and hung them in the courtyard. For a while, the moonlight melted in the courtyard, the wine and dishes were fragrant, and there were laughter and laughter. It was very lively.

With Bao Zheng not around, everyone felt much more at ease. Gongsun Ce was even more amiable than usual. He toasted and said a few words, and then let everyone eat and drink as they wished. The atmosphere at the table was quite relaxed.

Mu Li has traveled around with his master since he was a child. During the New Year and festivals, he just listens to the master explaining the origin of the festival, and then follows the master to have a good meal. I have never had such a big family sitting in a group. When Zhao talked about it, she looked forward to it very much. Although Zhan Zhao is not here now, which is a bit of a fly in the ointment, but Muli is still in a very happy mood. While chatting and eating with Gongsun Ce, the corners of her brows and eyes are also stained with smiles unconsciously.

The dishes on the table are rich, the cakes are fragrant, and the wood quinoa is very comfortable to eat, especially the pot of sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing is sweet and delicious, and the wood quinoa can't help but drink one cup after another.Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and the others don't like the thick and sweet sweet-scented osmanthus wine. After drinking two cups, they change to a larger bowl and start drinking Shaodao. Feeling slightly drunk.

Gongsun Ce drank a cup of sweet-scented osmanthus wine with a toast, and sighed: "I heard the guard Zhan say that the steamed fish in Taibaiju and the sweet-scented osmanthus brewed in the old restaurant are unique in the capital. "

Mu Li stared at the honey-colored wine in the cup, and murmured: "Does Zhan Zhao often go to the old restaurant? Does the old restaurant have a beautiful proprietress? There is also... there is someone else, I don't remember. "

Gongsun Ce laughed and said, "Mr. Yi and his wife are in charge of the old restaurant together. As for the craft of wine making, Mr. Yi is more proficient."

Muchen buried her head in her arms, and chuckled: "Does Zhan Zhao like to drink sweet-scented osmanthus wine? I can brew it too. It's definitely not worse than Yi... Mr. Yi."

After saying this, Muli lay on the table and remained silent. Gongsun Ce felt that Muli was drunk, so he stretched out his hand to call for a maid to come over and let her help Muli back to the room to rest.The maid was timid, helped Mu Li back to the room and lay down, thinking about the interesting things they were talking about in the yard, and left in a hurry without lighting the lamp and making tea.The aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus wine in the room was lingering, and only the shallow snorting of the tree plant, and the footsteps of the maid who left gradually went away.

In the darkness, Muchen slowly opened his eyes.

The author has something to say: O(∩_∩)O~ I can’t help but let the old restaurant make a fuss, but Beichuan and Chenatura are two stories, and there is no connection~

Zhu Zhu: Hello!Why don't you have a role for me?Just one sentence, Mr. Yi and his wife dismissed it, it's too unfair, bullying people!Also, I can also make sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing!
