Tofu Xishi: General Mo ran

Chapter 338 The little widow next door ([-])

When Madam Shu heard this, she also smiled slightly.

"It turned out to be a neighbor, please come in quickly. I have cooked some edamame and soy milk at home, why not eat and chat for a while."

After hearing this, the aunts seemed rather embarrassed: "It seems like we are here to take advantage of it. I thought it would be warm this year, and I didn't know if the bamboo shoots had sprouted in the bamboo forest behind the mountain, so I decided to take advantage of it." I called my sister to go and have a look, but I caught up with your family to cook soybean milk."

Miao Douer waved his hand immediately: "It's okay, it's okay, we are neighbors, and I will rely on a few aunts to take care of me in the future."

As she spoke, she turned around and walked into the kitchen, and came out with a bucket of hot soybean milk. The lazy girl behind her became alert at this moment, and hurried to the kitchen to get several bowls.

Several people sat around a small table in the yard, and each of them drank a bowl of soy milk.

After only one sip, Aunt Li, who was the most bluffing, yelled out immediately: "Oh! It's the first time I've had such delicious soy milk! It's much better than the ones in town!" Aunt Li's eyes sparkled He raised his head and asked Xiang Miao Douer: "Sister Douer, will you sell this soy milk in the future? How much copper coins do you want for a bowl?"

Miao Douer smiled, and stretched out a finger: "They all belong to the folks in the village. Dou'er doesn't make money from the villagers. After a bowl of soy milk, you will receive a copper coin. What do you think, Aunt Li?"

Hearing this, the three aunts who were drinking happily were surprised again: "Ah, this thick and fragrant soybean milk is only a copper plate? Tsk tsk, it is much better than the soymilk in the town that is mixed with an unknown amount of water." That’s right, that’s worth three copper coins a bowl! It’s almost as good as Xiao Banliang’s tofu!”

Several aunts praised it, and then began to peel and eat the edamame under half-push.

While eating edamame, they started chatting with Miao Douer.

"Sister Douer, the yard you chose... Tsk tsk, it's not very good!"

When Miao Douer heard this, he was stunned: "Not good? What's wrong?"

The newly acquainted Aunt Huang looked mysterious, and even lowered her voice a lot.She looked up to the other side of the yard and curled her lips: "Your neighbor is a little widow with red silk tied at the door!"

Miao Douer blinked, but didn't quite understand: "What does the red silk tied at the door... mean?"

Aunt Huang patted her thigh, and her voice was even lower: "Tsk, it's a bride at first glance, I don't know what's going on! The little widow next door to your house was originally named Zhou, but she changed her surname with her husband's family and named Zhou Linghua. The man in her family was beaten to death in Shangjing for some reason three years ago, as if he offended a nobleman. Since then, this little widow has been alone in this yard. There is no one in her family. Elder, after that guy died, she sold all the land left by the family in one go."

When Aunt Huang talked about gossip, she seemed a little interested: "The money from selling the field is not enough for her to spend, so I tied red silk on the door a year ago, and started doing that kind of business!"

Miao Douer tilted his head, still looking puzzled.Aunt Huang had a rotten expression on her face, and she simply slapped her thigh and said, "Why don't you understand! She's engaged in flesh and blood business!"

Miao Douer suddenly raised his head, and unconsciously glanced at the courtyard next door.

"The red silk tied on the door is to lure clients to come to the door. If the silk on the door is taken off, it means that there are people in the house at this time, or people are not at home..."
