Chapter 583: The Meat Pie Shop is Haunted
Taoist Master Xuan Yue had someone push the wheelchair to Yang Fan's side. He then said thank you and asked the other person to go about their business. It was Duan Qinghua's bodyguard who pushed him to the toilet. Ma Bingliang and the others were not around during this time.
Duan Qinghua took the initiative to arrange a bodyguard to take care of the minor troubles in Taoist Xuanyue's daily life.
"There is a small matter that needs you to deal with," Taoist Master Xuan Yue and Yang Fan said: "There is a haunted house in the town."
In the past, Yan Qing and the others were handling these matters, but now that they are gone, Yang Fan has to deal with it.
Xiao Lin turned her head suddenly, her eyes shining brightly.
Yang Fan opened one of the bowls of instant noodles and stirred, "What's going on?"
Taoist priest Xuan Yue briefly told her that shortly after Yang Fan and the others left this morning, a middle-aged couple came looking for Yang Fan.
The man's name is Ou Heguang, and the woman's name is Zhong Xinmei. They opened a meat pie shop in the town, the same meat pie shop that Yang Fan and the others thought was delicious.
The whole building of the meat pie shop belongs to their family. The couple used to work outside, and the store was rented out by the elderly family members to other people for clothing business.
Not long ago, due to the bad environment, Ou and Guang lost their jobs one after another. The tenants who rented their shop also moved out due to some personal issues. In addition, the traffic in Uehara Village drove the town's economy.
The couple decided that instead of being involved in life and death in a big city, they would take advantage of the wave of traffic in Shangyuan Village to return to their hometown to develop.
So the couple returned to their hometown with their children and opened a meat pie shop. The skill of making meat pie was inherited from Zhong Xinmei's family. It tasted very good and the couple sold a lot of meat pie every day.
After all, the money I earn every day is much better than working as a cow or horse in a big city.
The couple was very happy. They rolled up their sleeves and worked hard. They couldn't waste such a good opportunity to make money.
Just when everything was going in a good direction, the house suddenly started to be haunted.
The reason was that a few days ago, when Ou Heguang and his wife got up in the morning to make preparations, they accidentally discovered that the noodles he had made the night before had turned into a basin of noodle soup.
The basin was filled with water, and the mixed noodles were soaked and diluted into a real noodle soup.
They thought it was the water that the elderly at home put into the basin last night, because Ou Heguang's grandmother, who is over 80 years old this year, suffers from Alzheimer's disease and often causes havoc at home like a child.
The couple couldn't care less about accountability and hurriedly made dough again to prepare to open the store.
That night, in order to prevent the old man from going to the kitchen to cause damage again, Ou Heguang locked the kitchen door. Because they had to re-knead the noodles that day, they opened the store later than usual.
Lock the kitchen door so this doesn't happen again.
But when they went to the kitchen early the next morning, they found that the door lock had been opened and the reconciled noodles had been soaked into noodle soup again.
Strange, they bought a padlock and only Ou Heguang had the key. How did they open the lock?
Could it be that someone was jealous of their good business and came to their house in the middle of the night to pick open the lock and soak their reconciled noodles in water?
With this conjecture, Ou Heguang bought a surveillance camera and placed it in the kitchen that day. This time he learned a lesson and only cooked a little bit of noodles, and then locked the door as usual.
The next day, the couple went to the kitchen more than an hour earlier than usual and found that the door lock was still unlocked.
This time, not only the noodles they made were soaked in water, but also the flour in the flour bag was soaked in water.
"Okay, I've lost so much flour, I want to see who did it!"
Ou Heguang angrily called up the surveillance video, but the surveillance video showed that his grandmother went to the kitchen late at night, opened the door, and ate the flour.
The particularly scary thing is that the old lady in the video did not touch the lock at all, and it opened automatically.
Moreover, the old lady is in her 80s and almost 90 years old. She usually walks with a shaky cane on crutches, but the old lady in the video walks very steadily and looks completely different from her usual self.
If the old lady's face hadn't been clearly captured in the surveillance video, he would have thought it was someone else.
Ou and Guang felt something was wrong and wondered if something dirty was attached to the old lady.
So the couple came to ask Yang Fan to catch ghosts today.
Yang Fan ate instant noodles and replied, "Okay, I'll go take a look later."
It's not a big deal.
"One more thing, your eldest grandson from Grandma Xu's family suddenly came back today with his girlfriend and child."
Taoist priest Xuan Yue said with a smile: "The old couple were very frightened."
The corner of Yang Fan's mouth raised. She had calculated that Grandma Xu and the others would have their great-grandson by the end of the year. This would come true.
"Huh?" Xiao Lin said in surprise, "Didn't Grandma Xu say that none of her grandchildren are married?" When she lived at Grandma Xu's house before, she always heard that she and Grandpa Li were worried about their grandchildren's life events, and she was anxious to think about it. Cherish your grandson.
How long has it been since then? I already have a grandson-in-law and a great-grandson.
"They got on the bus first and then paid for it, which caught us off guard."
Li Kangping's voice suddenly sounded behind Xiao Lin, and the former was so frightened that he screamed.
"...Brother, can you make some noise when you walk?" Xiao Lin rolled her eyes speechlessly.
Li Kang took two steps flatly and said, "There is sound when I walk, but there is no sound."
Xiao Lin: "..."
She wanted to hit someone.
Taoist priest Xuan Yue smiled as he watched their bickering and amusing remarks.
Yang Fan took away the finished bowl of instant noodles and took another box to eat.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
"Yang Fan, stop eating instant noodles and eat this."
Li Kangping walked in with a vegetable basket, "My grandma stewed pig's trotters. I thought you hadn't come back yet."
“Eat it while it’s hot.”
He came here specially to deliver food.
Yang Fan's eyes lit up. He picked up a piece of pig's trotters with a plastic fork and put it in his mouth. The pig's trotters were stewed so soft that they fell off the bone with just a sip. It was numb and spicy and especially delicious.
Yang Fan ate one piece and then the second.
Taoist priest Xuan Yue saw how delicious she was eating and swallowed unconsciously, "Yang Fan, give me a piece."
Yang Fan: "You reach out and take it yourself."
"My neck is inconvenient."
"Then watch me eat."
Taoist Master Xuan Yue: "..."
"Taoist Master Xuanyue, here are the chopsticks for you." When Xiao Lin heard Taoist Xuanyue asking for chopsticks, she ran to the kitchen and brought two pairs of chopsticks and a bowl.
Taoist priest Xuan Yue has one pair, and she has one pair.
She also wants to eat this pig's trotters.
Xiao Lin put two pieces of pig's trotters into a bowl for Taoist Xuanyue and handed them to him.
"Xiao Lin is still sensible." Taoist priest Xuan Yue snorted arrogantly while holding the bowl, "Much more sensible than Yang Fan."
Yang Fan looked up at him and said to Xiao Lin: "Don't pinch him. He is so fat. Eat less."
Xiao Lin: "Okay boss!"
Taoist Master Xuan Yue: "..."
Sue to the central government, he will sue to the central government!
Someone is abusing the elderly here!
Li Kangping listened to their bickering and couldn't help laughing.
"By the way, Yang Fan, are you free tonight? My grandma would like to invite you over for dinner."
Li Kangping said excitedly, "My grandma said thank you for the great-grandson you gave her."
Xiao Lin and Taoist Master Xuanxue: Why is this sentence so weird?
Yang Fan waved his hand and said, "Be more precise in your wording. I'm just helping her figure out what she can do to have a grandson."
She said this as if she had given birth to the child.
Li Kangping chuckled, "One principle after another."
