Chapter 183 Tofu Soup (Monthly Pass Plus, Three Months Pass Please)

After all the trouble at night, it was already late at night. Chu Jinzhou was a young child after all, so he was very sleepy. After tidying himself up and lying on the bed, he fell asleep soon.

After Chu Jinzhou fell asleep, Ning Feng hurried to Chu Jinnian's study.

Chu Jinnian hadn't rested yet. He took a sip of the strong tea in the cup beside him and looked up at Ning Feng who was coming over: "Are you asleep?"

"I went to bed." Ning Feng answered truthfully, "Before going to bed, he was thinking of telling me to persuade the eldest master and not to get angry about this matter."

"Should you not let me be angry with him because of this matter, or should you not be angry with Mr. Fan?" Chu Jinnian put the teacup in his hand heavily on the table without raising his eyelids.

With a "bang".

This action shows that Chu Jinnian is already very angry at Fan Wenxuan.

Obviously, Chu Jinnian was very angry that Fan Wenxuan took Chu Jinzhou to do such a dangerous thing.

"Young Master." Ning Feng broke out in a cold sweat and lowered his head and said, "This matter was also a small oversight. I didn't ask anyone to keep a close eye on it, so..."

"Mr. Fan seems to be capricious in his actions, but many things are flawless. He must have stayed quietly in the garden during this period of time, making you think that he has become accustomed to your nagging and restraint, so as to let you relax your vigilance."

Chu Jinnian raised his hand: "I know Mr. Fan's character very well, so I can't blame you entirely for this."

"Yes." Ning Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chu Jinnian didn't blame him entirely.

"You go down first." Chu Jinnian raised his hand.

"Yes, Master." Ning Feng agreed, but he was very worried: "Master, have you had dinner? Can I ask the kitchen to prepare some midnight snacks?"

He traveled all night and did not stop at all in the evening. He originally planned to have dinner at Qingzhu Garden, but when he encountered such a thing here, he forgot about it.

It was not until he talked about this midnight snack that Chu Jinnian suddenly felt his stomach was a little empty.

"I'm a little hungry, so..."

Chu Jinnian paused and said, "The last time I came back, the tofu soup made in the kitchen tasted good, so make a bowl of tofu soup."

"Yes." Ning Feng agreed and asked someone to go to the kitchen to make arrangements.

In addition to the tofu soup that Chu Jinnian ordered, he also asked the kitchen to prepare four delicious side dishes, including scallion pancakes, which were then brought into the room for Chu Jinnian.

The round tofu balls, fried until reddish brown, are served with fresh tofu slices and a spicy soup made from vegetables. Just looking at and smelling them is enough to make you salivate.

Chu Jinnian didn't bother to eat the cake, nor did he look at the side dishes that looked delicious. Instead, he picked up the soup bowl in front of him and scooped a spoonful of tofu meatball soup into his mouth.

After swallowing the soup in his mouth, Chu Jinnian put the spoon back into the bowl and shook his head slightly: "When did the cook in the kitchen change?"

"The cook has not been changed." Ning Feng replied.

"But this soup tastes different from before." Chu Jinnian frowned slightly: "It tastes different from the soup I drank with Jinzhou last time."

Today's soup is not bad in terms of taste, but compared to what I drank last time, it can only be described as unpalatable.

"The chef hasn't changed, and the cooking method is the same. If the food tastes different to you, it's probably because the tofu the kitchen bought this time is not made in the same shop as before."

Ning Feng rubbed his hands and said anxiously, "I don't know why the tofu shop I used to buy from has attracted ghosts and is unlucky. If I buy tofu from there, I will attract unclean things and affect my luck."

"I know that the eldest master doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, and I don't believe in them either. It's just that others said it was so serious. Many people saw the appearance of that little ghost, and some even said that they really encountered misfortune when buying things in that shop, which made me wonder."

"I am not afraid of anything else, but I am afraid that this matter will affect the Third Young Master, so I will not let anyone buy tofu from this shop anymore."

"I see."

Chu Jinnian lowered his eyelids slightly: "I remember that the tofu seller seemed to be a young girl?"

She was the girl who was nearly kidnapped by a kidnapper but managed to escape cleverly.

Chu Jinnian had met him by chance in an alley in the town before, and he was deeply impressed by this man who was able to adapt to changing circumstances, and was even quite impressed by him.

"That's right." Ning Feng nodded. "It was the girl who found Chunlan's purse earlier. Afterwards, the eldest master asked me to check the girl's background and found nothing unusual."

"Although the eldest master told me not to keep an eye on it, I still had people keep an eye on it for quite a while. Only after I was sure that everything was alright did I withdraw my people."

"Yeah." Chu Jinnian said, "How long have the rumors about this tofu shop causing trouble been circulating outside?"

"I don't know much about this matter, but it has been about four or five days since I heard about it. And this rumor is so fierce. I always feel that someone is targeting this shop."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Ning Feng said, "This shop has always had good business in the whole town. It's probably because others saw that the business was booming and tried to trip it up behind the scenes. This is a common thing in the business world and it's not surprising."

Chu Jinnian took a piece of scallion pancake and put a white and tender shrimp in it.

The cucumber and shrimp are delicious, with a refreshing flavor.

However, compared with the spicy tofu soup which has a rich flavor and makes you feel refreshed when drinking it, it is still a little inferior.

Chu Jinnian pursed his lips, but his brows were not completely relaxed.

The rumor had been going on for four or five days, or perhaps even longer. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it was spread intentionally. Could it be that the girl who was smart enough to adapt to the situation couldn't see it?

If she could see it, with her ability, she actually condoned the other party's recklessness? Or...

Chu Jinnian relaxed his brows, reached out to pick up a piece of fried fish fillet from the plate, and ate it with relish.

The slightly raised corners of his lips made Ning Feng feel relieved.

When you are hungry, you will always feel irritable. Now that he can eat a hot meal, Chu Jinnian's unhappiness will probably be reduced a little.

And judging from the look of it, it seems that he is quite satisfied with the dish?

Ning Feng took note of it, thinking that he could do more of it in the future.

Thinking of this, Ning Feng asked someone to take away the tofu soup that Chu Jinnian was not satisfied with, and asked the kitchen to make another dish of shiitake mushroom soup.

"The eldest master is really the eldest master. He eats alone here at night and doesn't care about others."

It floated into the room like a gust of wind, and Fan Wenxuan sat down on the stool next to Chu Jinnian, picked up the oil cake and put it into his mouth.
