Chapter 1268: Predecessor (Medium)

The little officials grinned helplessly, looking at the eggs in the basket, they still felt that they didn't know where to start, it was thousands of eggs, it was indeed tempting to look at in this era, but if you want to do an inspection, it will be too difficult.

They look at each other, you look at me, I look at you, even if Lord Ding of Yujinyuan spoke, but they were still confused, and checked the eggs according to the method of inspecting pork and mutton, how to check them?

Seeing that they still didn't do anything, Lord Ding glared at them with crooked eyes and mouths, and the little officials had no choice but to pretend that each of them picked up an egg and observed it as if they were admiring a work of art.

An experienced little official pondered, this is Lord Ding to find fault, the two men in front of him, a military general in civilian clothes, and a scholar dress, should look bigger than Lord Ding, and no matter who they are, there is always nothing wrong with praising the eggs they brought.

So he cleared his throat, pointed to the egg and said, "This egg, it's a big shell, it's fresh, it's a good egg, it's a good egg!" ”

Several other officials also seemed to have enlightened themselves under the reminder of this old brother, and they also praised him one after another, "Yes, such an egg, ten are definitely more than a catty, and the chickens that lay this egg must be very strong." ”

The other said, "Well, the eggs sold on the market today are about three cents a piece, and such a big fresh egg has to be sold for five cents a piece, right?" ”

In the end, it was the eldest official who concluded, "Report to Lord Ding, the two big officials, these eggs are of very good quality, whether they are boiled or fried with green onions, they are all excellent." ”

Lord Ding let out a sigh of relief, and said in his heart that these subordinates could still understand his intentions, and he said to Brother Hei Niu with a smile, "General Li, these are all experienced officials in the Jade Jin Garden, since they said that these eggs you brought are very good, it must be no problem." ”

Brother Hei Niu couldn't deal with what he said, and Hei Niu's sister-in-law stepped forward and questioned, "You guys...... Is this considered the end of the check? Isn't it too hasty? ”

Lord Ding looked embarrassed, "Mrs. Li, according to your meaning, how should I check it?" ”

Hei Niu's sister-in-law thought for a while, "What Lord Ding said just now, to check whether the eggs are new or not fresh, and whether there are any parasites, so just now a few officials just checked the appearance of the eggs, but whether there are any parasites in the eggs, it seems that they have not been tested yet, right?" ”

Lord Ding frowned, he didn't expect Xiao Butterfly to attack him again, but since they brought it up, what they said just now, and they couldn't help but continue to check according to their requirements.

He gave his subordinates another look and asked them to further inspect the eggs as Mrs. Li had requested.

The little officials are even more difficult now, and they said that this is not a joke, whether there are parasites in the pork and mutton is easy to check, make a knife on the pork, check the texture of the meat, and see if there are obvious parasite eggs.

After the pork is inspected, even if it is stabbed, it will not affect the butchers' sales of the pork that is fanned, and the pork will be re-divided anyway.

But eggs are completely different, how to check for parasites in eggs? And eggs and pork are not the same thing, who has ever seen worms in eggs? Haven't heard of it, have you?

But what he said just now was said by Lord Ding, and now people take this sentence as a requirement to check eggs, so these little officials have no idea where to start.

There are at least a few thousand eggs in front of you, so you can't check them one by one, right? Don't say that this workload can't be completed in a moment, let's just say that there is such a thing as eggs, and if you open the eggshell to check if there are any worms inside, then these eggs will all be destroyed.

Or the experienced little official, who finally came up with a solution, he opened his mouth and asked, "This big official, dare to ask you about these eggs, but you bought them from one place?" ”

Brother Hei Niu was defenseless, and subconsciously nodded and said, "Yes, I bought it from a Zhuangzi on the way here." ”

The little official nodded and smiled, "Since the eggs of the big officials are bought from one place, then we only need to do a sampling inspection of these eggs, if the sampling proves that there is nothing unclean in the eggs, then there is no problem with this whole car of eggs." ”

After saying this, he and several other servants took an egg from each basket, and then found a few bowls in which they usually drank water, and beat the eggs in the porcelain bowl.

The eggs were beaten, of course, there could be no insects, the little official pointed to the eggs in a few porcelain bowls, and smiled and signaled to Brother Hei Niu, "Official, please see, after the eggs we sampled were beaten, the yolks and egg whites were very clean, without any impurities or parasites, and there was no problem with your eggs." ”

Yang Huairen smiled on the side, and said in his heart that there must be no problem with eggs, the eggs produced by Yang's Zhuangzi, in terms of quality, are the best within dozens of miles of the capital, and there is no need to doubt this.

The problem is that Hei Niu's sister-in-law's approach seems to be very deliberate, because of Lord Ding's predecessor, because she listened to Ding's father's words, she reneged on the marriage contract of Ding Xiao's family in order to become an official as soon as possible, and ruthlessly abandoned her and resented her, and in a few years, she formed an inextricable knot.

Today's return to the door happened to pass by Yujin Garden, and Hei Niu's sister-in-law remembered that Lord Ding was here to work, so she came up with a reason to check the eggs, and deliberately brought Brother Hei Niu to give Lord Ding a horse.

From the perspective of ordinary normal people, the black cow's sister-in-law's approach seems a bit small-bellied and narrow-minded, and it is very naΓ―ve to do so.

But if you look at it from her point of view, it is not incomprehensible that in this era, a woman's reputation is the most important thing in their life, and it is a major event related to the happiness of a lifetime.

She and Lord Ding must have had a relationship when they were childhood sweethearts, but she was ruthlessly abandoned by such a man she originally liked and trusted, and because of this, she was burdened with too many white eyes and discussions in the next few years, and it was unacceptable to change any woman.

So she deliberately came to trouble her ex, thinking about embarrassing him, and at the same time recovering her own face, and thinking about it from her point of view, it is not difficult for her to do this.

But Yang Huairen also knows that although it is wrong for Lord Ding to do that, it is also human nature, a scholar has studied all his life, isn't it just to be an official, he abandoned love for his own future, that is his choice, morally he must be ashamed, but it is really hard to say anything to others other than the parties.

Therefore, Yang Huairen is not good at interfering in this matter, so he can only let Heiniu's sister-in-law make a fuss and let her vent the anger in her heart.
