Chapter 155: The Old House

"Ahh

Hearing the door open, I subconsciously screamed.

"Girl, what's wrong with you!"

My mother heard me screaming and shouted anxiously outside.

"Huh......" Hearing my mother's familiar voice, I was originally covered in hair, and I instantly breathed a sigh of relief - after a while, I quickly said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's just a little burned in the bath......"

"Oh, you scared me to death," Mom sighed outside, "I thought you had poison in your head...... Alas, forget it, don't talk about it. I'll go cook first, and you'll come and eat after you take a shower. ”

Listening to my mother's words and stopping, I turned around and left, my heart was slightly sour, and immediately, I began to think in my heart: with my current mental state, if I go on like this, I will definitely not be able to hide it. If I had a nervous breakdown and slipped out, wouldn't that hurt my nearest and dearest?

Thinking of this, my heart trembled: No, I will find a way to hide myself first, and I will not come back until I solve my own problems...... This is the only way to achieve the best of both worlds.

But where am I going?......

The reality of the problem temporarily interrupted my train of thought, and I washed my head absentmindedly while carefully thinking about the places I could go to.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind -- yes! my grandmother's old house!

Suddenly grasping at this thought, I began to think about it carefully-

My grandmother's old house is a small courtyard house located in the suburbs, because the old couple moved upstairs to live a few years ago, this small courtyard is idle. However, because there is a small garden in the small courtyard, and the small house is not far from the new residence of the second elder, that is, the distance between the front and back of the house;

Grandma has always liked flowers and plants, so she has never sold this yard - so that if the second elder likes it, he can go back to live.

And now it just so happens that the second elder should not have returned to live in the courtyard - so that I can go there. Hiding for a while.

I made up my mind, so I hurriedly finished the shower, changed into clean clothes, and walked out.

"Mom. I'm going to discuss something with you......"

……

After some discussion between the two of us, I finally won the negotiation - after all, I am now sick, and I have something wrong in my head, so my mother did not stop me much, for fear of irritating my fragile nerves.

She just gave me a few words. I agreed to my request - of course, thanks to my "talent" as an actor and screenwriter.

However, although it has been approved by the superiors, the real "leadership" has not yet given instructions, so this negotiation can only be said to be a phased victory.

But I didn't want to wait any longer - in order to avoid long nights, I immediately packed up the clothes I needed for temporary accommodation and went straight to my grandmother's house.

Grandma's house is located in the suburbs, about 20 minutes by car.

As soon as I got in the car, I couldn't wait to call my grandmother's house:

"Toot-"

"Toot-"

"Hey?—"

Hearing my grandmother's familiar and old voice, my heart trembled slightly:

"Grandma. It's me, I'm back......"

"Hey, good granddaughter, are you home?"

Hearing my voice, my grandmother looked very happy over there, and without waiting for me to say anything, she hurriedly asked, "When will you go back to grandma's house?"

"I'm going back, I'm already in the car. "Listening to my grandmother's happy voice, my nose was very sore, but I knew in my heart that if they let the two elders know my virtue, they would be worried. I still have to think of another way, to ask my grandmother to borrow the old house.

I thought about it in my heart and used my "talent" as a screenwriter to come up with an excuse. After making up my mind, I hurriedly said, "Grandma, can you lend me that old house to live in for a few days?"

However, before I could finish speaking, my grandmother interrupted me directly:

"The old house? ”

"Huh?!" Hearing my grandmother answer me in a somewhat surprised tone, my head was confused at first. Immediately, I asked anxiously, "What......'s this?" Who's living there?

Hearing my anxious tone, my grandmother said with some confusion: "Your father and I rented out the house, otherwise it would be empty...... What's wrong granddaughter, are you going to live in an old house?"

"Uh...... Yes, I want to go to the old house for a few days," I said with a wry smile, "but since you rent it out, forget it...... I'll go back to see you and grandpa today, and come home tomorrow. ”

"Hey, okay, come back quickly, grandma will make you something to eat." Grandma laughed on the other end of the phone.

"Well, that's okay grandma, I'll go back now," in order not to worry the old man, I forcibly cheered up, pretended to be happy, and continued: "Then let's see you later~ Hang up." ”

With that, I hung up the phone in a hurry, and the smiling face of the strong pile collapsed in an instant - what should I do now?

I lamented in my heart: Why did all the bad things happen to me......? This house has never been rented out by the old couple!

- Besides, not to mention renting, even when I lived by myself, my grandmother had to take care of the flowers and plants in the yard very carefully, and even I didn't dare to mess around in that small yard easily...... And this time, how could the old couple be willing to rent out the house?

Thinking of this, I can't help but wonder a little - what kind of person can move the old couple and let them rent the house to him?

I sat in the car and thought about it, but I couldn't think of a reason. Anyway, I don't think about it anymore - I'll find out who this "great power" is when I go back and ask the second elder.

The car drove on the narrow road leading to the suburbs without incident.

The twenty-minute drive passed quickly - when I arrived at the station at my grandmother's house, I climbed off the train with the heavy backpack I had packed at the beginning.

It's okay not to get out of the car, but as soon as I got out of the car, I immediately felt the true weight of the backpack - I was miserable with the weight of a turtle shell, but there was nothing I could do about it—after all, the house had been rented out, and I couldn't force them out, right?

Alas...... Resign yourself to your fate.

I tightened my backpack, sighed, and walked in the direction of my grandmother's house.

As I walked, an evil fire rose in my heart: Damn! I don't know which bastard rented the house, so that Lao Tzu couldn't hide from people, and he was tired for nothing! But then again...... It is impossible for my grandmother to rent out the old house without a good reason: first, the old man himself likes the yard very much and does not want to be spoiled by others, and second, her old man is not short of this money.

Thinking of this, I stopped abruptly, and the curiosity in my heart began to drive me to sin again: either ...... Let's go to the old house first, but ...... What can I do after reading it?......

However, after a fierce battle of ideas, curiosity once again succeeded in taking over the high ground: I decided to go to the old house first.

After making up my mind, I immediately adjusted the direction of travel and walked towards the small courtyard house of my grandmother's house......

Fortunately, the station is not too far from the old house. After a few minutes of walking, I reached the small courtyard outside the old house—but to my surprise, the door, which had been unlocked for many years, was now locked tightly together—and because it was locked, I could not see what was inside.

Damn!

Looking at the locked courtyard gate in front of me, I couldn't help but shout silently in my heart: Do the people who live here want to toss and turn thirteen tricks, and the girl even locks the door......! Is it so unsightly?

Thinking of this, I pushed the locked door of the small courtyard in front of me with some puff - but as I expected, the lock of the small iron gate was very strong.

After some fruitless searching, I sighed:

It seems that I can only go back to my grandmother's house first...... (To be continued.) )
