Three hundred and fortieth chapters slap in the face
"Hiss, so beautiful!"
"I thought Mrs. Liu was already astonished to the heavens, but now I realize what it means that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world!"
"No, Mrs. Liu pales in comparison to this lady."
"Ms. Liu is very beautiful but has no soul. This little lady has smart eyebrows and is more lively than her beauty."
"......."
The veil on Jiang Miao's face was suddenly opened by Liu Ruyan, and the eyes of the people around her suddenly lit up, and everyone was amazed by her.
After seeing Jiang Miao's true appearance, the pride on Liu Ruyan's face completely disappeared. Her eyes were full of disbelief, and she pointed at her and questioned.
"Aren't you disfigured? Why are there no marks on your face?"
Liu Ruyan wanted to touch her face. She wondered if Jiang Miao had used some magic to remove all the scars on her face.
Liu Ruyan never thought that Sun Hao had deceived her. At that time, Jiang Miao was splashed with hot oil and was only seen by a few people close to the county government. As for the disfigurement, it was entirely Sun Hao's imagination.
Liu Ruyan has been deceived until now. She originally thought that Shen Yanqing would dislike his disfigured wife and marry her, but now Jiang Miao is not disfigured. On the contrary, she is more beautiful and charming than before. Liu Ruyan's long-standing wish is about to come true. , how could she accept this?
"Mrs. Liu, who did you hear that I was disfigured? Why didn't I know? No wonder there are rumors outside that my husband has married an ugly wife. It turns out that the news came from you?"
Jiang Miao walked out from behind Shen Yanqing. One of them was crazy, the other was generous, forming a sharp contrast. Most of the people who were originally on Liu Ruyan's side were now shaken.
"It turns out that Mrs. Liu deliberately slandered Mrs. Shen. I didn't expect that she is such a person."
"Who says otherwise? If the real owner hadn't appeared and slapped her in the face, wouldn't we all have believed Mrs. Liu's words?"
The officials who originally resented Shen Yanqing and had contributed to the reputation of Jiang Miao's ugly wife have now changed their faces and blamed everything on Liu Ruyan. A group of people pointed at her, asking where Liu Ruyan had ever been treated like this. She Shaking with anger, my brain blurted out without thinking.
"You had hot oil poured on your face, how could you be fine..."
"Oh? It seems that Madam Liu is very clear about my affairs. She even knows about the fact that I was splashed with hot oil. I just don't know how this sealed news reached your ears? Could it be that the hot oil was poured on me? Did you bribe this person?"
Although Jiang Miao was smiling, there was no warmth in her eyes. Her guess was indeed correct. The murderer behind the oil spill was Liu Ruyan!
As soon as Jiang Miao's words came out, Shen Yanqing behind her was exuding murderous aura. Liu Ruyan was frightened and her brain finally came back to her senses. Only then did she realize that she had let something slip. She looked at Shen Yanqing with a stern expression. Qing, I was so flustered.
"Mr. Shen, listen to me. This is all a misunderstanding. I have heard this from others. How could I possibly harm her?"
Although Liu Ruyan was looking forward to Jiang Ru disappearing, this thought could only be hidden deep in her heart and could not be known to anyone, especially Shen Yanqing.
"I will find out about this matter, and Mia Ya will definitely repay her a hundredfold for the suffering she has suffered!"
The man shouted loudly, and the chill in his voice made Liu Ruyan shiver. Although Shen Yanqing didn't say it explicitly, Liu Ruyan knew that he was already doubting her. If he really found out, she and Shen Yanqing would never be together again. possible.
Liu Ruyan didn't know how she got back to her house. She was confused all the way. If Xiu'er hadn't supported her, she would have fallen to the ground.
Her devastated look frightened Xiu'er, but Xiu'er knew everything Liu Ruyan and Sun Hao did, and she always felt that this was retribution.
Liu Ruyan wanted to cure Jiang Miao to death, but God was wise, and Jiang Miao escaped crisis after crisis. However, her wife's affairs were exposed, and Shen Yanqing already hated her. It was just a dream for the two of them to get married. .
Without Liu Ruyan's interruption, Shen Yanqing took Jiang Miao into the household department. Other officials also received the meals sent from home one after another. The official office soon became lively. The room with the charcoal stove was warm, and each family had food. As soon as the box was opened, the whole house was filled with the smell of rice.
Shen Yanqing is the only emperor's faction in the household department. He was already marginalized by others. Last time, he joined these people and completely offended them. As a result, Shen Yanqing was ostracized in the household department, even his seat. In the corner, there isn't even a carbon stove next to it.
The environment in the capital city is not even as good as Zhenjiang Prefecture. Jiang Miao feels sorry for him, so she stews a nourishing soup every day to warm him up and nourish him.
"Today's braised pork trotters with soybeans, I could stew them for more than an hour. The pork trotters were stewed until they were soft and chewy. Moreover, the soybeans were soaked in the soup and were very fragrant..."
Jiang Miao first served Shen Yanqing a bowl of soup, and then put out all the other dishes. The Shen family's food box was double-layered, with a hollow charcoal basin underneath, so although she waited outside for a long time, this The food will still be hot for a while.
Soft and chewy braised pig's trotters, rich braised tofu, crisp and refreshing bean sprouts, and a bowl of sweet and sour tomato noodles.
Although they are the most ordinary home-cooked dishes, Jiang Miao's cooking makes them taste like gods. Especially now that the weather is cold, everyone wants to have a hot bite. As soon as Jiang Miao put the food on the table, there were several pairs of eyes next to her.
Shen Yanqing seemed to feel something. He raised his head and looked over. Several officials turned their heads in embarrassment and picked up the chopsticks to eat the food in front of them.
They are also gifts from family members. Why do they cook so delicious and full of flavor and color, but their cook only cooks meat dishes that are heavy in oil and salt? Once the greasy meat is cooled, a layer of fat will form on it. , I haven’t eaten yet and I feel full just looking at it.
Everyone came here like this before, so no one thought there was anything wrong, but Jiang Miao came to deliver the meal in person, and Shen Yanqing's lovely wife was by his side. The little lady even served him soup and vegetables with her own hands, which made everyone else blush. About to commit a crime.
"As scholars, we understand that when heaven assigns great responsibilities to people, they must first work their minds, their muscles and bones, and starve their bodies. Some people do not do much official work, but they do not fall behind in luxury and enjoyment. I wonder where all these books have gone?"
Who says that only women are small-minded? Compared with women, men are better at yin and yang, are extremely jealous, and will bully people who can't stand it. It's not that he has failed in the past, but this time he encountered a tough problem. Shen Yanqing was not someone who stood at attention and was beaten.
He put down the bowl and chopsticks, stared in the direction of the man and smiled.
"If Mr. Zhou feels that Shen is just enjoying himself and not busy with official duties, then Shen will check the backlog of cases in the Household Department after dinner. In addition to the embezzled 20,000 taels of silver, there are also a bunch of materials that are unaccounted for. Otherwise, I will Does it check everything?"
