59 Don’t Talk Nonsense!
Mrs. Jiang was clearly stunned.
She only knew that Jiang Ze and Yu Sheng were related to the anti-government poetry case, but she did not know the details.
When she heard Yu Niaoniao finish speaking, her first reaction was to deny it.
“That’s impossible! If it was Ah Ze who caused Sheng to be arrested and imprisoned, he would definitely tell me the truth. He’s so close to Sheng. He wouldn’t leave him alone.”
Yu Niaoniao nodded. “That’s right. Their relationship is so good. In order to protect him, Yu Sheng refused to say anything after being locked up in the Justice Department. Yu Sheng really treats him as a brother.”
At this point, she looked at Second Master Jiang.
Second Master Jiang’s face had already turned pale. His eyes kept flickering, and he felt very guilty.
He tried to deny it.
“It’s not what it sounds like. Don’t talk nonsense!”
Yu Niaoniao said, “The Justice Department has already investigated this matter. Jiang Ze is the one who was really involved in the anti-government poetry case. He knew that Yu Sheng was wronged, but he still pretended to be fine and came to my house as a guest.”
She paused, looking puzzled.
“The Eagle Guards have already intervened in the anti-government poetry case. Logically speaking, Jiang Ze should have tried his best to reduce his presence. Why did he still come to my house as a guest at that juncture? Could he have another purpose?”
Mrs. Jiang followed her train of thought and immediately remembered.
“Ah Ze said he left a book in Sheng’s study. He came to get it back, but when he left, I didn’t see him with it.”
Yu Niao Niao looked somewhere behind them and smiled. “I see you’ve guessed what the book is.”
Mrs. Jiang and Second Master Jiang immediately turned around.
They saw Yu Sheng standing nearby.
Yu Sheng had unknowingly walked to the entrance of the Green Jade Residence with a large bundle of firewood in his arms.
He stared blankly ahead, as if remembering. His expression gradually changed from confusion to disbelief.
“Could it be that travelogue?”
Before anyone could ask what the travelogue was, he abandoned the firewood, turned around, and ran away quickly.
“Sheng, where are you going?”
Mrs. Jiang shouted twice, but her son did not turn around.
Afraid that her son would do something stupid, she hurriedly lifted her skirt and chased after him.
As soon as Mrs. Jiang left, the others naturally left too.
In the blink of an eye, the Green Jade Residence returned to its usual peace.
Dang Gui walked over and picked up the firewood.
“Miss, do you still want this firewood?”
Yu Niaoniao said matter-of-factly, “Of course. When the earthen oven is done, we’ll make cookies to eat.”
Dang Gui asked curiously, “What are cookies? Are they delicious?”
Yu Niaoniao briefly described the deliciousness of the biscuits and immediately made Dang Gui drool.
They immediately started working.
Dang Gui was in charge of the fire and drying the earthen oven.
Yu Niaoniao was in charge of making cookies.
She added some brown sugar, oil, salt, and lye to the flour and mixed it evenly with her hands. Then she added black sesame and spiced powder. Finally, she poured in just enough milk and kneaded it into a smooth dough.
She put the dough in a basin and covered it with gauze.
She used the time to cut some beef.
Beef in this era was very expensive. The cost of such a palm-sized piece of beef was equivalent to three months of food for ordinary people.
Yu Niaoniao placed the sliced beef into a bowl and added seasoning to marinate it.
Then she rinsed the rice and put it on the pan to steam.
The rice cooked from this kind of method carried the fragrance of firewood. It was much more fragrant than the rice she used to cook with an electric rice cooker in modern society.
