    This time Ruihe woke up to the fragrant aroma. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was in a kitchen with an ancient background. In front of him was a steaming pot of porridge. Several stoves nearby were also lit with fires, and steamer pottery was placed on them.  Jars, various fragrances are constantly overflowing, and the whole kitchen is filled with hot aroma.

    He subconsciously continued to stir the porridge in the earthen pot with the long-handled spoon in his hand. Shrimp, lean meat, scallops and other ingredients appeared in the stirring with the spoon. This was probably a pot of seafood porridge.  Is the possessed identity this time a chef?  Ruihe looked at his own attire, a simple and neat short shirt, and a cloth tied on his head to collect all his hair.

    "You're right, it's the chef."

    He was the only one in the kitchen, so Ruihe stirred the porridge while receiving memories.

    The name of this body is Zhou Yaozu, who was born in Daniu Village. He is the second among seven brothers in the family.  When other people give birth to seven daughters, they can be laughed at by outsiders and call them "seven fairies." When the Zhou family gives birth to seven sons, they are not all envious. With so many sons, how will they build a house in the future?  Where did so much land come from?  Besides, a half-grown boy is living off a poor father. What about the seven sons? Are they not allowed to squeeze out their parents in the future?

    Zhou Yaozu was born early and caught up with the "Guangzong Yaozu" journey, so he was named "Yaozu". The names of his younger brothers were not as particular as those of the first two sons. What a great success, great fortune, great wealth and wealth.  Zhou Yaozu did not waste such a good name. When he was eight or nine years old, he went to work as an apprentice in a restaurant in the county town. He studied for seven or eight years. He was very clever and coaxed the master of the restaurant to his satisfaction, and later accepted him as his apprentice.  Being a master's apprentice is both a blessing and a hardship. He is not afraid of hardship, but is afraid of not having enough food and clothing to keep him warm. He keeps his eyebrows down and learns honestly, and the master is becoming more and more satisfied with him.

    "Later, the only daughter of the restaurant owner wanted to find a son-in-law, but she went back and forth without finding a suitable one. The girl turned twenty-two in the blink of an eye. The master mentioned Zhou Yaozu to the owner and said, "Isn't this a ready-made candidate?"

    When the boss thought about it, it was really dark under the lamp!  In the early years when his daughter hired a son-in-law, Zhou Yaozu was only eleven or twelve years old, and he was still inconspicuous in the kitchen!  Zhou Yaozu is also seventeen this year. He has grown a lot in height and looks like a man.

    The Zhou family has many sons, so I don¡¯t think they would refuse to send one of them as a bride-in-law.  Zhou Yaozu was not very handsome, but he had square features and a tall and straight figure.  The most important thing is that he wants to find a son-in-law who can cook and inherit the restaurant in the future, so that he can continue to pass on the business to his ancestors.  Zhou Yaozu's cooking skills are good, and he is the apprentice of a master chef hired by his family with a lot of money. This year coincides with his apprenticeship, and he can learn some simple dishes in the restaurant. If he trains carefully for a few more years, he will definitely be able to take on a leading position.

    It doesn¡¯t matter if you are five years younger than your daughter, but it doesn¡¯t matter how much younger you are, or how old your daughter can be to control your husband.

    After a few weighings, the owner was moved and talked directly to Zhou Yaozu.

    Zhou Yaozu is scheming. Although the master thinks he is the matchmaker, it is actually the result of Zhou Yaozu's tactful hints. Otherwise, the master would not be able to notice that his apprentice is seventeen years old and there is no marriage yet.  The boss's girl is twenty-two years old. At first glance, she doesn't seem to be a good match for her apprentice. No one thought that way.

    "I have to go home and ask my parents." Facing his boss's inquiry, Zhou Yaozu scratched his head and acted shy and uneasy.  After returning home, they convinced their parents in a few words. Since the boss's daughter was already twenty-two years old, it was not easy to delay. They got engaged at the end of the month and got married the next month. After the Mid-Autumn Festival of the following year, his wife Li Yuanniang gave birth to a fat child for Zhou Yaozu.  Boy, I made my boss very happy.

    "It's a pity that Li Yuanniang was so injured when she was giving birth that she could no longer bear children, and her body became weak. Zhou Yaozu never neglected Li Yuanniang, and he never took any concubines.  The boss looked at him coldly for several years before he completely let go of his son-in-law.  Seeing that his son-in-law was capable and reliable, he entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. After he was not in good health and could not take charge, he handed over the restaurant to his son-in-law.  A few years later, his father-in-law died of illness, and Zhou Yaozu became the owner of the restaurant.

    From an ordinary farm boy to the owner of a restaurant in the county, it is truly a life changer and a winner in life.  Zhou Yaozu's life experience was talked about by the villagers and became a truly "promising" and "worth learning" life example.  The Zhou family has also become rich because of Zhou Yaozu. The two youngest brothers can even go to school. The youngest brother has the best talent in reading and has also passed the Jinshi. The Zhou family has completely changed its family and realized the true meaning of "Guangzong Yaozu".  ".

    "It's a pity that such good days did not last long. On Zhou Yaozu's thirty-fifth birthday, he died of drunkenness and drowned in his own vomit. When he was found the next day, he was completely erect.

    The wife cried so hard that the Zhou family hurriedly came from the village to see Zhou Yaozu.Now, I only go home occasionally.

    There was an old servant guarding the door of the Li family's house. He entered the house quietly. After washing, he quietly entered Li Yuanniang's room without lifting a lamp.  The little girl slept in the outside room, and Li Yuanniang was sleeping soundly on the bed. After Ruihe went in, he pressed the acupuncture points on the two of them in the dark to ensure that they would not wake up in the middle, and then lit the lamp and started to explore Li Yuanniang's room.

    Zhou Yaozu knew too little about Li Yuanniang. They said they were husband and wife, but in fact they were very unfamiliar with each other.  Li Yuanniang got married to Zhou Yaozu only after obeying her father's advice. The two were five years apart. There was not much difference in appearance, but their hearts were far apart.

    In the second month of their marriage, Li Yuanniang found out she was pregnant. After her son was born, Li Yuanniang refused Zhou Yaozu's intimacy because of her poor health.  After Zhou Yaozu got married, he received strong support from his father-in-law. Not only did he continue to learn cooking skills from the old chef, his father-in-law also slowly taught him family recipes and the principles of running a restaurant.  Zhou Yaozu, who is busy with his career and ambitious for his career, naturally does not care about his wife's indifference.

    This has been busy for more than ten years.  After experiencing more things and broadening his horizons, Zhou Yaozu could naturally see that his wife was alienated and disliked him.  There was nothing he could do about it. Fortunately, the two already had a son. Since he relied on the Li family to get ahead and became a respectable restaurant owner, he must take good care of the Li family's daughter.  He has a scheming mind and a conscience.

    In the original memory, he was indeed drunk, but he was definitely not drunk enough to lose consciousness.  Before he fainted, he felt pain in his heart, then a moment of paralysis, and then he knew nothing.  Thinking about it carefully, this time for his birthday, his wife actually made him longevity noodles for the first time. This is very strange.  He ate every last bit of the bowl of noodles. When he was about to die, the only thing left in his mind was the bowl of noodles.

    Ruihe went to see a doctor just now. The doctor said that he was in good health and had nothing wrong with him, especially no heart problems.

    Rui He reasonably suspected that the original person was poisoned.  It's the original person's birthday in three days. If Li Yuanniang is really the murderer, something should be found in the room now.

    With the lamp lit, Ruihe¡¯s first stop was the dressing table, and the second stop was the cage, but he didn¡¯t find anything strange.  Finally, he put the lamp in front of the bed, and the light shone on Li Yuanniang's beautiful face. Li Yuanniang seemed to be dreaming while sleeping, with a smile on her lips.  Ruihe picked it up and put it on the ground, and began to search the bed, including the quilt and pillows. He pinched something in the pillow and took out a jade pendant. It was an ordinary jade with bamboo and plum blossoms engraved on it.  It is used by men, or men who study.

    Continuing to search, Ruihe took the quilt away and found a hidden compartment under the bed board. He opened it and found a box.

    The box was locked. Ruihe came fully prepared. He took out a needle and fiddled with it to open the box.

    There was a thick stack of letters inside. Judging from the envelopes, they were old and new, but they were all unsigned.  He opened the envelopes one by one and checked the letters, probably because Li Yuanniang often read them. The letters were not arranged in chronological order, but after reading them all, he was able to sort out the context.

    The letters were written by a man named "Lang", and each letter was signed with the character "Lang".  The first letter came from twenty-three years ago, when Li Yuanniang was sixteen years old.  The letters lasted for four years. It was obvious that the two were in a relationship at that time. Lang was studying in the academy, and the two could only express their longing and friendship through letters sent by Hongyan.  There are more than thirty letters. The most recent letter is from eighteen years ago. There is a year between this letter and the previous one. It can be seen from the previous letter that Lang went to Beijing to take the exam, while Li Yuanniang waited for him for a year.  , in the end I only waited for this breakup letter.

    Lang said painfully in the letter that he had passed the Jinshi examination and would work in the Hanlin Academy in the future.  The Yuan family only has one son, and he is already famous, so it is impossible for him to marry into a merchant family.  He broke up with Li Yuanniang in the letter. The letter paper was old and there were several spots where the ink was blurred, probably caused by the tears Li Yuanniang had shed.

    Ruihe looked at the time of signing and found that it was two months before his original engagement and marriage to Li Yuanniang.
