Chapter 272: Salty and Sweet Laba Congee (1)
Many years have passed since that incident happened, but there are some features on the corpse that cannot be concealed no matter how many years have passed.
"Back then, your grandmother's father and brother suffered accidents one after another, and her only daughter had a fortune of tens of millions. Many people from the same clan began to covet her wealth. In order to cut off other people's covetousness, your grandmother and Ji later got married and had a son early." Lin
Fei said, "There are not a few women of this age who are married and have children, and there are also many who are not!"
The female corpse buried inside obviously belonged to the latter.
Perhaps, at that time, the other party never thought that the body buried under the loess would one day be exhumed and seen again.
It is unknown who the female corpse inside is, but this alone is enough to prove that the corpse is not Li Wei's grandmother.
Li Wei fell silent, and after a while, he asked Lin Fei: "Where is my grandmother's body?"
Lin Fei shook his head and said, "I don't know!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Wei immediately laughed bitterly. While smiling bitterly, he shook his head and said, "It's useless!"
It's useless? How is it useless? Liu Yuanzheng was about to speak when he heard Li Wei say: "I was the one who came out to contact those people. I was the one who ordered and arranged all this. Everything was done under my instructions. There are no witnesses."
Well, regardless of the physical evidence, I did it all! Besides, I also have a motive." At this point, Li Wei paused and said, "Those words just now are indeed from my heart. I have done a lot of things since I was a child in Datong.
People have complained, and if you do a random search, you can find many witnesses who have heard me say these things!”
"It means I come forward to testify..." Li Wei said this, looked at Lin Fei, and said with a wry smile, "Can the testimony of me, the biggest suspect in this case, really convict them?"
The faces of Liu Yuan, Bai Zhu and others became more and more ugly, and it was only then that they realized the difficulty of this situation.
Even if they knew that this matter was not done by Li Wei, there was someone behind Li Wei, but... where is the evidence?
The biggest witness is precisely the most direct "real culprit" on the surface. How much weight can the evidence of the "real culprit" carry?
"The same goes for those bandits who are looking for swords!" Li Wei laughed bitterly and shook his head in a depressed manner, "How can they prove it? I am the one who contacted them. As for their parents...not to mention that their parents are dead.
Even if he’s not dead, those people can’t let them leave any physical evidence, just like me!”
If there is no physical evidence, an extremely reliable witness is needed! But this person is so cunning that the most powerful witness is the "real murderer" on the surface. In this case... this witness is almost useless.
!
How could Lin Fei and others not know what Li Wei knew and understood?
When he walked out of the Dali Temple prison, Liu Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "These people are really...fortunate to be born rich, but they don't want to do anything! They just do nothing. It's just a 'rich idler'. These people
He is a good person, but he spends all his time on such evil ways, which is simply hateful!"
What's even more despicable is that the other party had already expected all this, and without definite physical evidence, these murderers cannot be brought to justice!
Seeing that the real culprit is at hand, but unable to bring him to justice because there is no evidence, it is really nerve-wracking, and the matter seems to have reached a complete deadlock!
The atmosphere in the entire Dali Temple suddenly became stagnant because the real murderer was at hand but could not be brought to justice.
What is even more hateful is the provocation of those thugs!
Early in the morning, Liu Yuan came to Dali Temple full of anger.
Seeing the limping Liu Yuan and the dust on his official robe, Bai Zhutong, Wei Fu, who was talking about the eucalyptus, was startled. He quickly turned around and asked Liu Yuan: "It's so early in the morning.
Why do you look like this?"
Liu Yuan shook his head with an ugly face. He didn't want to say anything more. He only glanced at the two bowls of porridge brought by the kitchen above him and sighed: "The days passed so fast, I almost forgot that today is Laba Festival."
!”
The bowl on the left is the most common Laba porridge: it is extremely rich in ingredients! The thick soup base is boiled into a dark red color. On top of the porridge, various ingredients "pee" out, including common peanuts and red beans.
, longan, lotus seeds, red dates and other items are naturally not lacking, but pear, wheat, walnut kernels, raisins, pumpkin seeds and other items can also be seen vaguely.
Seeing such rich ingredients, Liu Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Isn't Laba porridge eight kinds of ingredients? How many ingredients did Master Wen use for Laba porridge?"
Seeing Liu Yuan arrive at Dali Temple in a state of embarrassment, Bai Zhutong and Wei Fu were a little worried at first, but seeing that he could still pay attention to eating, he must have looked a bit more embarrassed, but not injured, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Said: "After asking, Master Wen used a total of eighteen kinds of ingredients for this sweet traditional Laba porridge. The rice alone only used five kinds of rice, millet, chicken head rice, glutinous rice, and sorghum rice, not to mention the others!"
The Laba porridge with such rich ingredients is really tempting to watch. Liu Yuan sat down in front of him, picked up a spoon, and poured a spoonful into the blue and white porcelain bowl containing the porridge.
I couldn't help but say "Eh" in surprise, looking at the brown chestnut meat scooped out from the spoon, I was surprised and said: "There are actually chestnut kernels?"
Bai Zhu on the side nodded and was about to speak when he saw Liu Yuan blowing on the spoon a little, then put the spoonful of Laba porridge filled with various ingredients into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and squinted in pleasure.
Squinting his eyes, he eagerly scooped up another spoonful.
Eating Laba porridge one bite after another... Bai Zhu and Wei Fu looked at each other and lowered their voices and said, "You can still eat it and pretend you haven't been hurt at all!"
"More than just being able to eat it?" Wei Fu squeaked slightly, shook his head and said, "You have a better appetite than me!"
The cooked Laba porridge is thick and sticky, with a sweet taste. Red beans, mung beans and other beans have been cooked until they "bloom". The rustling texture is integrated into the porridge base, adding a sticky "glutinous" feeling to the porridge base.
Each type of rice has a different texture, but they are all cooked until soft and can be crushed into pieces with just a sip. The chestnut meat powder is glutinous and sweet, and the lotus seeds taste slightly harder than most ingredients in the porridge...
When you take a bite, the texture is amazingly rich due to the "rich" ingredients!
One spoonful after another, after the last spoonful was in his stomach, Liu Yuan turned his head and couldn't wait to look at the bowl of Laba porridge that was completely different from the ordinary Laba porridge: brown bacon, plain white radish, orange carrot, brown...
The white and white dried tofu is cut into small square pieces and floats in the jade-white porridge base. The top is dotted with fresh chopped green onion. At a glance, the color is extremely bright!
