Three-pot porridge and naan

More than ten years ago, the two most famous blacksmiths in the East City of Shangjing were the Yu family and the Xue family, but the Xue family gradually declined due to the lack of children, while the Yu family grew bigger and bigger.

Although the Xue family has fallen, the iron factory has not yet closed down, and it is still under the management of their young master Wan Dong. About ten years ago, they moved back to the Xue family village in the suburbs of Shangjing.

Zou Wu'an can think of Wandong because Wandong knows how to forge iron.

They met for the first time at that time, and it was in front of Xue's iron shop on the outskirts of the city.

Then why Zou Wu'an insisted on finding Wandong.

Little Wandong, although she is seventeen or eighteen years old, but she looks like she is about 14 years old. It is just right for someone who can't guess her age, and won't make people feel defensive.

It is also because Wandong was born in the Yaoxiangmei Mansion, and his family background was backward and he was in the market. He has good knowledge and cultivation, but he has also experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, and he has seen suffering and mediocrity.

What's more, Wandong is talented and interested in solving cases.

Wandong was the candidate Zou Wu'an had observed for half a year and thought about for a long time.A person he can arrange in the Jianghu market to help his subordinates solve the case.

Outsiders will not think of it, and the government will not easily guess it.

Under the lights, Wandong stared at the iron pestle that Zou Wu'an put on the table. He thought at first that Zou Wu'an had accepted all the money he had given. Anyway, he was going back to Xuejiazhuang tomorrow, so he took the iron pestle and went back to Zhuangzi to melt it. .

Thinking of Wandong, he picked up the iron pestle, and frowning for a moment.

As soon as I grasped it, I didn't know that it was as important as what my family had done before. It's just that Kong has such a big body. With the reputation of the Yu family in Dongcheng, it is impossible to say that it is fake. So it can only be the request of the Kang family?

Wandong suddenly took out his dagger, and slashed fiercely on the iron rod a few times.

At this time, his eyes became sharper.

It turned out to be the case.

On the 23rd day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, Wandong went out early in the morning. Lao Wan, who was next door, was moving the cloth outside. When he saw him coming out, he asked in surprise, "Is Wandong going out of the stall today?"

Wandong: "Some things, those who come back early will continue to work."

"Then Wandong should come back earlier, so I can earn more money." Lao Wan said with a smile.

Wandong pursed her lips and responded with a smile.

When he walked through the main street of the market, people there were talking about one thing, that is, the case that Zou Wu'an didn't tell Wan Dong last night had already spread.

Zou Wu'an's iron pestle was taken from the Kang family in Santaoyuan, and the murder case was also from the Kang family yesterday evening.

"Boss Kang is a nice person, and he has done a lot of good things. How can he die so badly in his life? Alas, good people don't live long."

"I heard that the head was smashed to pieces... It's terrible. The boy from the Kang family who found out that Boss Kang was dead is still unconscious. The twelve or thirteen-year-old child was terribly frightened. I'm afraid there will be shadows all his life." gone."

Hearing that he was crushed to death... Wandong's hand holding the cloth bag trembled.

Could it be that the thing in his bag was the murder weapon?Wandong's expression changed, what kind of idiot is Zou Wu'an...?

Wandong felt disgusted, but after thinking about it carefully, no matter how stupid Zou Wu'an was, he shouldn't have thought of melting the murder weapon.

Wandong was trembling with thoughts, and hurried to the Dubu Building on Chungui Road. Zou Wu'an said yesterday that if he wanted to find him, he would go there.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went there, he saw Zou Wu'an sitting in the side room of the Dubu building, drinking tea, he should have been here for a while.

Came here early in the morning for tea.Isn't he the servant of the Ministry of punishment?Why are you so free.

"Little Wandong, have you noticed something? Come and sit down." Zou Wu'an saw him coming in and waved to him.

Wandong put down the cloth bag in his hand, his off-white sleeves fluttered, "Look for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Zou Wu'an opened the cloth bag and saw a few scratches on the iron pestle, revealing...

Zou Wu'an was startled, but he didn't speak for a long time.

Wandong frowned slightly, and poured tea for himself: "Lord Zou, have you seen it?" He didn't believe that Zou Wu'an couldn't recognize what was under the scratch.

"I think this iron pestle is not as big as mine... Boss Kang is really stingy..." Zou Wu'an said to himself.

Wandong almost spit out a sip of tea, and raised his hand only to give him another headshot.

When Zou Wu'an raised his head to look at Wandong again, he smiled straight into his eyes: "The Kang family actually did such a thing."

"Your Excellency, you don't want me to go and see Boss Kang's body?"

"Xiao Wandong wants to see it, so I'll let you go. But don't reveal your identity, just say that you are Kang Boning's friend and went to mourn." Zou Wu'an gave him a jade card, "Take this and go, if you My subordinate named Mo asked, if you show him, he will understand that you are mine."

Wandong took the jade tablet and said in a calm voice, "I'm not yours."

"Then I'm from Xiao Wandong..."

Interrupted by Wandong's look, Zou Wu'an realized that he was talking too far away again.

Wandong probably knew that this person wasn't talking too much, he just didn't talk too much, so Wandong snorted and left.

Wandong visited Kang's Peach Garden a long time ago, and he also recognizes Boss Kang.

Kang Boning is the big boss of this side, and he is also a kind person.There are countless big businessmen in Beijing, and Kang Boning is just one of them.

Kang Boning started out by buying and selling, so the Kang family has no fixed business. They usually stock up on what is easy to sell, and sell what they stock up on. The Kang family has sold daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, and other pots and pans.

It is also because of this that the Kang family made a fortune. Later, the family property grew, and they built a scattered peach garden here more than ten years ago.

Kang Boning has business acumen, and after he became well-off, he earnestly helped his younger brother to study, hoping that Kang Shu'an could go on the official path, and Kang Shu'an would also strive for success. I heard that he was going to take the provincial examination soon.

When Wan Dong entered the Peach Garden, Kang Boning's personal servant, Wang Zi, brought him into the house, and three incense sticks were counted as mourning.

"Is that where Boss Kang's accident happened?"

A few policemen were still there, and the place where the accident happened in the garden has been fenced off.

"Yes... Dr. May."

A year ago, Wan Dong had seen Kang's concubine, Yao Shi, and it was Wang Zi who went to Dongcheng Market to call for him. That night, Kang Boning's concubine, Yao Shi, had a miscarriage.

Kang Boning didn't marry a wife, and for several years there was only Yao's concubine. The three aunts and six wives in the Dongcheng Market said they were going to raise her as a regular wife, but for some reason they never did.

"Is your Aunt Yao in good health?"

If other people asked about the aunt in the house, Wang Zi would feel a little wretched, but Dr. Mei is a doctor, and he looks like a teenager, with clear eyes and a clean face. People feel wretched, just feel that it is out of the doctor's concern for others.

"Aunt Yao just returned to her mother's house yesterday, and something happened to my master. I rushed here before dawn this morning. I have already cried a few times. I should have fallen asleep by now."

While talking, the two had already walked to the garden. Wandong looked at the garden from the corner of his eyes. There were many peach trees in the garden, and many peaches were produced at this time of year, but no one picked them, and the plump peaches were destroyed by insects. The child was mothed a lot.

The whole yard is densely packed with trees, and there is only one path leading to the main yard.Behind the main courtyard should be the kitchen and the back door of the Kang family.

"Brother Wang Zi, the young owner of the Yu family is here to mourn!"

At this time, the young servant of Kang Sanye outside Santaoyuan shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Wan Dong narrowed his eyes, Yu Mu, he came to Kang's house?Wandong immediately thought of the iron pestle.
