Liang Zan was about to roll up his sleeves and beat someone up, but Chen Ying grabbed Liang Zan.

Liang Zan said: "I will give them a long memory!"

"You!" Chen Ying persuaded in a low voice: "This kind of dirty talk is nothing to ordinary people. When you're not around, shopkeeper Xu must be in trouble..."

Liang Zan calmed down, but he heard the pockmarked diner continue: "This widow Xu is a daughter of a famous family. She is the niece of Xu Shanxinzhi, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, and Cao Shi of the Ze Department of the Yu Department. Daughter of Xu Shanyi, she first married Gao Chengzu, the son of Gao Ya, the son of Qianjin Sanqi's regular attendant Gao Ya, but this Gao Chengzu was actually a short-lived ghost, on the wedding night, she got drunk and fell into the lotus pond in the back garden of her house and drowned."

The diner with the sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks said: "Isn't this a coincidence? What could it be?"

"You heard that I'm done!" The diner with a pockmarked face continued, "After the death of Gao Chengzu, Gao Ya was involved in the Yang Xuangan Rebellion, and was listed as a thief. After another year, the widow married the youngest son who was promised to the Su's silk cloth shop in Xishi. I think Su's silk cloth shop was a rare wealthy family in Chang'an City. Over a hundred, and thousands of servants under the sect. I never thought that just after the widow Xu passed through the sect, Daxing City was flooded, the Su family’s silk cloth shop and the Su family’s compound were engulfed in a fire, and the whole family was killed in the sea of ​​flames..."

The diner with the sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks was frightened and sweated coldly: "Is this widow still a white tiger girl?"

"More than that!"

"Do you know that the former court Chang'an stayed behind?"

"Master Yin?"

"That's a ruthless person in the ranks!"

"At the beginning, Master Yin saw Widow Xu's beauty, but he didn't want to be evil, and wanted to take Widow Xu as his concubine. Before she could enter the house, Princess Pingyang rushed into Chang'an City and killed Master Yin completely..."

Hearing this, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.

Chen Yingchu didn't pay attention to it at the beginning, and he couldn't help being shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect that this widow Xu was really the fate of Ke Fu, it was simply that whoever marries whoever dies.

At this moment, the diner with a pockmarked face continued: "You said, this widow has married three times before and after, and she either got drunk and slipped and drowned, or her whole family was burned to death. The unlucky Master Yin didn't even have time to get her hands on her." Touch it... so widow Xu still hasn't lost her red pill?"

This man seemed to be deliberately teasing the shop owner, Widow Xu, and the whispering voice could be heard by half of the diners in the hall, and the others just laughed maliciously when they heard it.

Xu Widow's face was flushed, and there was some resentment in those bright and appreciative eyes, but she couldn't drive the guests out, and she added more seductive temperament.

Chen Ying, Ma Sanbao and the others were also listening and laughing, but they didn't have any extra sense of justice to stand up and fight against the injustice. They just verbally teased the little widow, which is really not a big deal for the people in the market.

"Hey, that makes a lot of sense!"

"What makes sense!"

Ma Sanbao looked at Chen Ying and joked, "Brother Chen also fell in love with the female shopkeeper? Shall I match you up?"

"This..." Chen Ying saw the female shopkeeper blushing, and immediately stopped talking.

Ma Sanbao said: "This female shopkeeper is pretty, but the key is that there is a large dowry. Marrying her is the so-called double talent, you, aren't you afraid?"

"Why would I be afraid?" Chen Ying wanted to say that he was not afraid, it was really a lie, but Widow Xu was really the legendary black widow.Such a person, if you can not provoke, try not to provoke.

"Ha ha……"

Ma Sanbao had an astonishing capacity for alcohol, and when he met Zhang Huaiwei and Liang Zan, two great people who drank like water, they also drank too much in the end.Chen Ying asked Xu Ji Inn to open an extra room, and arranged for Ma Sanbao to stay in the inn.

After a while, the sound of snoring came, Zhang Huaiwei and Ma Sanbao snored like thunder, one after another, even though there were two doors between them, Chen Ying couldn't sleep peacefully because of the noise.

Chen Ying was preoccupied at first, in the early autumn season, even though it was not too cold, he slept with the window open, and looked at the moonlight in front of the bed like frost, Chen Ying was thinking about the matter of refusing to be recruited by the prince earlier.

He knew that Prince Li Jiancheng would be disappointed if he refused, and even suppressed him.But there is no way, he doesn't want to be implicated by Li Jiancheng, but he wants to seek refuge in the Qin Palace, I am afraid it is not a good thing, in fact, Li Jiancheng basically suppressed Li Shimin during the Wude period, if he was not pushed to a desperate situation, Li Shimin would never He poisoned himself and nearly died.

Although I am humble and light-hearted, I am afraid that it will be difficult to stay out of the matter if I accidentally enter the field of vision of the three giants of the imperial court.

Really anxious by the snoring next door, Chen Ying put on his clothes and pushed open the door.When he came to the side of the well fence in the small courtyard, Chen Ying suddenly saw a horrifying scene, a woman in white clothes, the white clothes were more snowy, and the long hair was "floating" towards him.

Chapter 23 Xu Jingzong's embarrassment

"what!"

Chen Yingrao was quite courageous, and he almost screamed out in fright.Who would have thought that the woman in white Shengxue with long flowing hair would scream out before Chen Ying.

It turned out that some wicked ghost poured the footwashing water on the ground, and the woman in white might as well slide towards Chen Ying.

Fortunately, Chen Ying found out that the woman was screaming, and reached out to hold her in time, so that the woman stabilized her body.

It turned out that this woman was none other than the pretty shopkeeper of Xu Ji Inn.

"Thank you, sir, for your kindness!"

"you are welcome!"

Chen Ying suddenly noticed that shopkeeper Xu was wearing a gauze dress, and there was an indescribable fragrance exuding from his body. Chen Ying blushed and said, "Be careful, shopkeeper Xu, it's not good if you get hurt!"

Shopkeeper Xu smiled slightly, and said softly, "No slaves!"

For a moment, Chen Ying was slightly absent-minded.Usually a woman who can laugh will make people feel like a spring breeze, but Shopkeeper Xu is the best among them.

Chen Ying suddenly realized that in the dead of night, lonely men and widows, it was quite inappropriate to meet him here, so he cupped his hands towards Shopkeeper Xu and said, "It's getting late, Shopkeeper Xu, go to rest early! Good night, have a good dream!"

"Good night!" Shopkeeper Xu said with an unspeakable expression, "Mr. Chen, do you... want to buy a house in Chang'an?"

Chen Ying wanted to come, it must be while drinking, he discussed with Ma Sanbao about buying a house, and shopkeeper Xu heard about it.

Chen Ying nodded and said, "That's exactly what I mean. Why, shopkeeper Xu has a house to sell?"

Shopkeeper Xu said: "It's not my house, it's my cousin who wants to sell a house!"

Chen Yingdao: "Chen doesn't have much cash in hand, I don't know if he can buy a suitable one!"

"My cousin's house has 47 rooms in three stages, but it hasn't been repaired in three years! It's unavoidably dilapidated, but the asking price is not high, only a thousand pieces are needed!"

Originally, Chen Yingying had no concept of prices in this era, but the meal at night consisted of more than [-] dishes, and the beef and mutton alone weighed no more than [-] catties. With drinks included, it only cost seven renminbi.After conversion, it is only more than seven hundred Wen.Even if Chang'an is in turmoil at this time, the prices are not very high.

If this meal is placed in later generations, I am afraid that it will not be worth 5000 yuan.

Chen Ying sighed, whether it is now or later generations, the price of the house is still sky-high.

Chen Ying showed a look of hesitation and said: "I'm sorry, I really can't get out the Qianguan money."

Shopkeeper Xu said: "Mr. Chen, why don't you go and see the house tomorrow morning, maybe my cousin can give me some money!"

Chen Ying nodded and said, "That's fine too!"

……

Early the next morning, Chen Ying left Liang Zan, Chen Huairen, Zhao Yuanqiao and Li Chuqi to take care of the property, while Chen Ying, Zhang Huaiwei, You Ziying and Ma Sanbao followed shopkeeper Xu to see the house in a carriage.

Starting from Xuji Inn, it took about two quarters of an hour to walk through the streets and alleys. It is located in the second house in Yongchang Square. The house faces south from the north. In the middle of the gatehouse hangs a vigorous blue-bottomed gilt plaque, which reads "Xu's Mansion" , The vermilion gate is tightly closed, decorated with a large copper ring with the title of a beast.

Shopkeeper Xu walked to the door, knocked lightly on the copper ring, and after about a stick of incense, slowly opened the closed wooden door.

Showing the appearance of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl with combed temples: "You are looking for..."
