Chapter 107 Tofu(1/2)

The next day.

After Lu Bai changed his appearance, he boarded the bridge with the token.

The upper and lower districts of Yancheng are separated by a river. The river is not big but very deep.

There is a stone bridge over the river.

The spring rain caused the river to swell, almost reaching the stone bridge.

At the end of the bridge is the city wall.

Shangcheng District is also known as the Old City. When the city was built, city walls were cast.

Hundreds of years ago, the Northern Barbarians invaded and the people fled south. Yancheng, as one of the border towns, had an influx of many people.

So the lower city was newly built on the basis of the old city.

The city gate is tall.

The city cave is deep and deep.

Standing at the city gate, comparing the two, the Lower City is dilapidated, overcrowded and dirty.

In Shangcheng District, there are beautiful buildings and tall buildings among the lush vegetation.

Many manors in the old town.

The air is also fresh.

"Waist card!"

The city guards stopped Lu Bai.

Lu Bai handed over the waist badge.

Lu Qinghuan didn't say much about the origin of the waist badge, and Lu Bai didn't know the origin of the waist badge either.

What is certain is that the waist card has been kept in the box for a long time.

"Oh, I'm from Third Master's house." The city guard respectfully returned the badge to Lu Bai and let him in.

Third Master?

Lu Bai didn't know him.

He almost got lost after entering the uptown area.

It's not that the roads are complicated, but that the terrain is complicated.

The terrain of Shangcheng District is high and there are many hills.

Many estates are built around the mountains.

Some manors even occupy one or two small hills. To have a meal and meet a guest, you have to go up and down the hill.

They surrounded the manor with high walls, just like a small kingdom.

Lu Bai accidentally glanced from outside the door.

In the park, there are lakes, ponds, small rivers, fruit-bearing orchards, forests of mulberry trees, rolling waves of wheat, and six animals foraging on the grass.

A pastoral scene.

Oh yes.

There are also groups of servants and villagers.

Grandma is a bear!

Lu Bai admitted that he was sour.

He is so proud of occupying an alley, look at the people in this uptown area.

So damn luxurious.

Lu Bai seemed to have returned to the manor period of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties recorded in the history books of his previous life.

Of course, the manor here is even more powerful.

Because they built in a city where land was scarce.

Lu Bai was extremely envious.

When he has money...

never mind.

You can't live in this place just by having money, you also need status.

After constantly asking for directions, Lu Bai finally found Xiangyang Lane, Pinganfang.

Xiangyang Lane is shabby.

There are only a few large houses lined up at both ends of the broad bluestone avenue.

In the courtyard on the left, there are two stone lions in front of the door, and the red wooden door is closed.

Lu Bai went up and knocked on the door.

The door opens.

A maid in green clothes stuck her head out and asked doubtfully: "Who are you?"

"My friend asked me to come."

Lu Bai handed over the waist badge.

The maid in blue took it.

She glanced at her badge, then at Lu Bai, and asked him to wait at the door.

She went to report it.

Behind the gate, footsteps soon came.

The door opens.

The maid in green took Lu Bai in.

A middle-aged woman is waiting.

She bowed and bowed in a very standard manner, like palace etiquette, graceful, and highlighted her hip line.

"I've met the young master."

Lu Bai didn't understand these red tapes.

He cupped his hands and took out a letter from his arms, "My aunt asked me to give this to you."

"Aunt?"

The middle-aged woman was startled.

She took it and saw the writing on the envelope, her eyes turned red instantly, "Little Miss..."

Miss?

Lu Bai was confused.

Is their family still a wealthy family?

The middle-aged woman suppressed her emotions and asked the maid to invite Lu Bai to the living room.

She read the letter outside and then returned to the living room.

The middle-aged woman motioned to Lu Bai not to get up, "Your aunt and I are good friends, and you can treat this place as your own home."

She asked Lu Bai to rest.

Later, the maid will take you around the streets to get your bearings.

Lu Bai nodded.

Liu Zhibai didn't want to touch anyone he could, and he couldn't break into the Jinyiwei Yamen to look for him.

The young maid is a lively girl.

Chatting endlessly on the street, while giving directions, he also told Lu Bai about the delicacies and strange people and strange things on each street.

Three days later.

Lu Bai took to the street alone, wandering outside the Jinyiwei Qianhu Residence.

There is a stall on the street of Qianhusuo in Jinyiwei. The stall owner is a pretty widow. She makes tofu, which is very moist, tender and white.

Also make fried tofu.

It tastes delicious with chopped green onion sauce.

When Lu Bai wandered around Jinyiwei, he often ate her tofu.

"The young master looks unfamiliar. He just moved to this street?" the pretty widow asked curiously when she took the money.

"No, I'm a regular customer."
