Yipin Tang

Chapter 296 Tofu Xishi
After wandering around Luoyang for a long time, I looked at all the houses mentioned by Steward Wang, but they were not as satisfactory as Zhang's house.

It was already late when we returned to Cuiliu Lane. There are no street lights these days, and we can only see one or two lanterns hanging at the entrance of the alley from a distance.

Little Lolita was unwilling to follow, so Wang Xiang left Wen Shun and Little Lolita in Yuelai Inn. As for Zhang Sanfeng, he couldn't wait to enter Daxing Casino after receiving the ten taels of silver from Wang Xiang for his travel expenses.

Bringing Butler Wang, Tie Dan, and Li Zhi, who is more curious than anything else, the four of them came to Zhang's house again.

Butler Hu had just finished his meal and was a little surprised to see Wang Xiang and the others come back, so he opened the door and invited them into the house.

That night, Wang Xiang, Wang Steward, and Li Zhi stayed in the guest room in the front yard, while Tie Dan slept in the ancestral hall in the backyard for the night.

Woke up the next morning and nothing happened. Wang Xiang bought the house very simply. When he bought the house, he found out that the house was already under the name of the governor of Luozhou. Butler Hu was helping the governor to look after the house. After selling the house, he took the bank note and went back to the governor's mansion.

Before leaving, Butler Hu also said that the people who came to buy houses before were scared and regretted after staying for one night. Wang Xiang smiled and became more convinced that the so-called uncleanness was just someone pretending to be a ghost. There was no movement last night because Tie Dan slept in the ancestral hall. Tie Dan is not an ordinary citizen, anyone who dares to pretend to be a ghost can just find it out.

Not long after Butler Hu left, Little Lolita and Wu Shun came over. They were relieved to see that Wang Xiang was fine. They were all worried when Wang Xiang decided to stay here for one night yesterday. After all, Zhang Sanfeng and Hu Shun What the butler said was a little scary.

Wang Xiang smiled and said: "It's okay, don't you see that we are all fine."

Li Zhi nodded and said, "That's right, Tie Dan slept in the ancestral hall in the backyard last night, and there was no movement at all." Even so, seeing him staring at a pair of panda eyes, it is clear that he must have not slept last night it is good.

Wen Shun didn't see Butler Hu and asked, "Where's Butler Hu?"

"This house was originally hung under the name of the governor of Luozhou. I have already bought the house. Butler Hu has returned to the governor's mansion to return to his command."

"Ah, brother-in-law, you really bought this house..." Little Loli seemed a little unhappy.

Wang Xiang smiled and joked: "Usually you seem quite courageous, why are you so scared now just hearing a little rumor."

Little Loli blushed: "I'm a girl, besides, it's not just a rumor. We heard it from others when we went back to Yuelai Inn yesterday. They all said that Zhang's house is evil. People who wanted to buy a house before Scared away."

"That's probably because some people pretended to be ghosts because they didn't want the house to be sold. Didn't Tie Dan stay in the ancestral hall last night? It's fine. Well, don't worry." After Wang Xiang comforted the little Lolita, he said to the housekeeper: "You Go to Yuelai Inn and have our carriage brought over, and then buy some daily necessities, this house was previously only lived in by Housekeeper Hu, and there was nothing there."

"Don't worry, young master, I'll do it now."

"oops!"

Several people were talking in the front yard, when they suddenly heard a soft cry of surprise coming from the door, they all turned their heads to look, and there was a woman with a delicate face standing at the door, who looked only a little older than Little Lolita, with big and watery eyes .The woman was dressed plainly, with a white apron around her waist, and a light blue turban on her head, covering her hair with only her smooth forehead exposed.

The woman was still holding a bamboo basket, and when she saw everyone looking at her, she said nervously, "I...I'm here to find Grandpa Hu."

Grandpa Hu?It should be looking for Butler Hu, Wang Xiang smiled and said: "Butler Hu is gone."

"Going away?" The woman was obviously in a daze.

"Yes, this house has been bought by us, butler Hu is going back to the Governor's Mansion."

A look of disappointment flashed across the woman's face after hearing Xiao Lolita's words, and Wang Xiang asked, "What can you do with Butler Hu?"

"No...no." The woman lifted the bamboo basket in her hand and said, "I'm here to deliver tofu to Grandpa Hu. He used to buy two pieces of tofu every day. Grandpa Hu is not here, so I... I will go." Lah." After saying that, he turned and ran away.

After a while, when Wang Xiang was about to go out, he saw the woman pushing a small wooden cart out of the innermost house in Cui Liu Lane, and asked immediately, "Do you live here?"

The woman was locking the door with her back to Wang Xiang, and she was startled when she heard the voice. When she turned her head and saw that it was Wang Xiang, she was relieved and nodded with a blushing face. She still seemed a little cautious.

Wang Xiang looked at her small wooden cart, on which there were three layers of white and tender tofu neatly piled up, and said with a smile, "You know how to make tofu?"

The woman continued to nod. Seeing that she didn't like talking very much, Wang Xiang smiled and said, "We will be neighbors from now on, so we need to take care of each other."

The woman responded indiscriminately, lowering her head and pushing the small wooden cart and hurried past Wang Xiang. Wang Xiang was extremely depressed: What are you running? Do I look like a bad guy?

Taking a look at the house in the innermost part of Cui Liu Lane, Wang Xiang was a little puzzled. The house didn't seem like an ordinary house. Why did that woman sell tofu?

Walking to the entrance of Cuiliu Lane, the woman's small wooden cart was parked at the door of the Gourd Teahouse. The business seemed to be very good. Many people gathered there to buy tofu. Wang Xiang shook his head and was about to leave.

"Tofu Xishi, have you thought about it, as long as you follow me, you won't have to work so hard to sell tofu."

The content of the speech and the tone of the speech sound like those villains in the TV, Tofu Xishi... The name is quite good, Wang Xiang turned his head to look with interest.

As soon as the voice sounded, all the people who bought tofu around the small wooden cart dispersed, leaving only an arrogant dude standing in front of the wooden cart, his eyes were fixed on the woman, and his hand was still on the tofu in front of him. groping.

"It's really slippery, and it's still watery."

The woman shook her lips in embarrassment, and the people around her also looked sullen, but they dared not go forward due to their status as playboys.

"Young Master Qin is here, our teahouse has a new batch of good tea, Young Master Qin..."

"Old man Cao, you dare to take care of my affairs, I think your Gourd Teahouse doesn't want to continue!"

The owner of the teahouse trembled when he heard the words, and looked at the woman sympathetically, not daring to say more.

"Qin Shaoxian, aren't you afraid of Hu...Grandpa Hu!" The woman yelled sternly when she saw the dude getting closer and closer to her.

The dude snorted softly: "Isn't that old man a steward of the governor's mansion, I will be afraid of him? Hahaha!"

Everyone listened to the dandy's words with contempt in their hearts. If Steward Hu was here, he would not dare to say that. It was precisely because of Steward Hu's care that Qin Shaoxian never succeeded.

"Don't think I don't know, that old thing has gone back to the Governor's Mansion, if you don't agree to my request, I'll see who dares to buy your tofu!"

The woman panicked when she heard the words: he really knew about Grandpa Hu's departure.

Just when Qin Shaoxian was arrogant and arrogant, and the woman was at a loss, a voice sounded faintly.

"Give me two pieces of tofu."
