Chapter 436: Labor (Third Watch)

But after Meng Weisheng cooked some on the side for everyone to try according to what Shen Xiangmiao said, everyone immediately changed their previous prejudices.

This glutinous rice ball is not only beautiful, but more importantly, delicious.

Although the price is slightly more expensive......

But so what, this time a year, on the fifteenth day of the first month, the Manchurian Federation will eat for two days on the fifteenth and sixteenth, how much can you eat, and go back to make your family happy and happy.

And this rare glutinous rice ball, I heard that it is difficult to make, and the amount that can be sold every day is also limited, if you go late, there will be no more, and no matter how much money you spare, you have to wait for the next day to buy again.

Therefore, in the past few days, since the sale of these colorful rice balls, everyone is happy to buy colorful rice balls, and every family is proud to eat colorful rice balls.

Even the guys in the full moon building were attracted by the colorful rice balls, and they all wanted to buy some rice balls, and waited for the fifteenth day to bring them back to their families to taste fresh, but every morning when the moon full building was busy, and when they were free to buy, Meng Ji was either in a long queue or had been sold out, which made the guys distressed.

Meng Ji pastry shop, on weekdays, is deeply taken care of by Fang Huairen and the people of the full moon building, and many businesses are also driven by them, after Meng Weisheng knew about this, he and Meng Lingjie stayed up all night to make a lot of rice balls, and specially sent some to the guys in the full moon building.

The moon is full of people upstairs and downstairs are naturally grateful to Meng Weisheng, and they have said several words of thanks in a row.

"It's all your own people, why do you need to say thank you? Besides, I also listened to the sister of the Shen family say that you want to eat this colorful rice ball......"

While speaking, he divided half of this favor to Shen Xiangmiao's head.

On weekdays, Shen Xiangmiao is very generous to everyone, and at this time, everyone feels more and more that Shen Xiangmiao even helps them remember these little things, and they are naturally grateful.

And as the colorful rice balls are selling better and better, Meng Ji pushed the rice balls that can be eaten at any time in a timely manner.

No need to cook, no need to wait, you can eat it directly after buying it, it can be cold or hot, it can be plated, it can be skewered, it is very convenient, the key is that it is delicious.

Soft and glutinous, sweet but not greasy, it immediately became a very popular snack at the moment, and children can often be seen holding this to eat in the streets and alleys.

The salty snacks choose Shen Ji, and the sweet snacks are none other than Meng Ji, which is in Qingshui Town, I don't know when such a rumor came out and was talked about.

The rice balls are selling well, and the promotion is successful, Shen Xiangmiao is naturally happy to see it, and she is overjoyed.

Tangyuan is famous in Qingshui Town, and Hexi Village at this time is also exploding.

Shen Yuantang, the patriarch who had been in the county seat for a long time, came back.

When I came back, I also brought out the news, saying that on the fourth day of the new year, at the door of Shen Xiangmiao's house, Shen Futian, Xu and Shen Jingqiu, a family of three, were asked about a felony and sentenced to ten years of hard labor.

The so-called hard labor, as the literal meaning, is all about doing coolies and labor.

The content of labor varies, such as digging mountains and roads, digging ditches and ditches, or logging deep forests...... But no matter what it is, the same thing is that they live hard, have little food, are poorly clothed, and the living conditions are poor, and often people die before they can finish their sentences.

After ten years of hard labor, the chances of surviving are actually not very large.

But compared with the death penalty of the autumn queen and the death penalty, such a sentence can be said to have been benevolent and righteous, and the net has been opened.

After all, such a bad act, the autumn queen asked to behead, exile...... It is not an exaggeration, in the end, he was only sentenced to ten years of hard labor, which is already considered mercy.

Everyone talked about it, but almost all of the words were the same, accusing Shen Futian's family of deserving it, and then singing the praises of Lord Lu's noble hand that day.

And with the questioning of Shen Futian's family, Shen Yuantang even summoned the people to open the ancestral hall, announcing that Shen Futian's family had been removed from the family tree, and in the future, this family and the Shen family would have nothing to do with it.

Shen Futian and the Xu family acted improperly on weekdays, and many people in the village had a grudge, as soon as this remark came out, naturally no one objected, and some people even applauded, thinking that such a person should not stay in the Shen family, otherwise, if he made a bigger mistake in the future, wouldn't he want to drag down the whole clan.

Looking at everyone's reactions, Shen Yuantang breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was saying to Shen Guangyao, and seemed to be muttering to himself: "This step is not wrong after all." ”

Shen Guangyao couldn't help but clench his fingers when he saw Shen Yuantang like this, remembering the distressed appearance of the county magistrate in the backyard of the county government a few days ago: "Old Shen, you are confused, you begged for mercy on that day Shen Wensong, this official can understand, after all, you are old, your heart is naturally soft, and you can't bear the disaster of the descendants surnamed Shen, but you have saved the family's backfall, why didn't you take the initiative to mention the expulsion of this family from the family tree?" ”

"If you don't take the initiative to ask, then Lord Lu may not be able to say in his heart that it will be easy to have a mustard, thinking that you rely on the old and sell the old and don't take him in your eyes, what if you cause disaster at that time?"

"This Lord Lu is young and is the Shaoqing of Sipin Dali Temple, the famous family of the Lu family, and there are no longer a few people who are officials, not to mention, then Lord Lu's aunt is the most favored concubine in front of the saint, it can be said that one person is above ten thousand people, Lord Lu has recently been praised for the case of asking for a sky-high ransom after the kidnapping of the ruling and opposition that alarmed the government and the opposition a few years ago, and the future can be said to be limitless!"

"Elder Shen can't do such an unclear thing because he is confused for a while, if he implicates Lord Shen at that time, it will be inappropriate......

After Shen Yuantang heard these words, he was dripping with cold sweat.

In this matter, he didn't deliberately want to protect Shen Futian's family, let alone go against Lu Shaoye, but because he was shocked and frightened by Lu Shaoye's appearance that day, and he was angry and ashamed of Shen Futian's family's misconduct, so he was angry for a while and forgot about it.

Shen Yuantang explained one or two, and the county magistrate's face looked a little better, and only told Shen Yuantang that after the first yamen was promoted to the court to hear the case, Shen Yuantang must hurry up after he goes back.

Shen Yuantang naturally responded.

I wanted to come back earlier and announce these things, but because of the rush and worrying about the matter, I got a cold when I was in the county seat, and I was delayed for a few days.

Now that everything has completely subsided, and inquiring about it, I learned that Shen Futian's son Shen Wensong has been picked up by Xu's second sister, Xiao Xu, and I finally breathe a sigh of relief.

But while relaxing, thinking about the whole thing, he let out a long sigh and said, "Guangyao, do you think I'm really old." ”

Shen Guangyao naturally knew that Shen Yuantang was worried about this matter in his heart, and said with a smile: "Where did the patriarch say, you are just past the year of the sixtieth year. ”
