Chapter 1649: Strange Guest
At dusk, it began to rain in a bewildering drizzle, and this place of Qianhu Island was different from the outside world, because it was too close to the lake, and it would rain when the weather was a little hot.
Therefore, it is often such a drizzly and confused weather, like an amorous poet.
The sky was slightly dark, Tang Qingxue went downstairs with Niannian in her arms, and walked into the restaurant, only to see that there were candlesticks on the table in the restaurant, although more than a dozen candles were lit, but the light still looked dim.
"Mike, why don't you turn on the lights!"
The lamp she was referring to was an electric light, and as she spoke, she pressed the switch on the wall, and after a snap, the chandelier did not come on as usual.
Mike said while cleaning up the dishes, "I forgot to tell you, the wire broke a few days ago, I found someone to repair it, I don't know what's going on, the repair and maintenance workers of the Electricity Bureau have not come, I will go to see it tomorrow." ”
"Isn't there a backup power supply?" Tang Qingxue sat down.
"The diesel has just run out, there is no way to generate electricity, but there is a high-power battery, but the young master said that it will be used at night when there is any emergency. ”
Tang Qingxue nodded, indeed, if emergency surgery is sometimes needed, it is naturally the battery that is more reliable.
Forget it, it's dinner anyway, and the candlelight looks very romantic.
So he hugged Niannian on the chair, tied a napkin for her, and brought the potato salad to her, "Niannian, today's potato salad was made by your Mike, you hurry up and eat it!"
Nian Nian took a bite and spit it out, "I don't want green onions, I don't want green onions......"
"Okay, okay, don't have green onions, I'll pick you out......"
On top of the potato salad, just a thin layer of green onions, the little girl didn't eat green onions, there was no way, she could only pick them out one by one.
"Miss, little girls will become smart when they eat green onions! You see Uncle Mac is so smart because he often eats green onions......
Nian Nian knocked the bowl with a fork, "Hmph, Uncle Mac is not smart, if he is smart, how can he not even get a wife!"
Just when Cynthia walked in, hearing the words, a little smile flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but look at Niannian a few more times, but when she met Niannian's eyes, Cynthia's face changed instantly.
Tang Qingxue just raised her head and watched these subtle changes in her eyes quietly.
"Nonsense, it's not that Uncle Mac can't get a wife, it's ...... This is called the Diamond King, do you understand?" Mike was a little embarrassed to be said by Niannian, and he, who had always been very thick-skinned, actually blushed a little.
"Niannian, don't say that, it's rude to talk to others like this, do you know?" Tang Qingxue reprimanded in a low voice, and didn't know how to do it, now Niannian is becoming more and more lively, and he dares to say anything in a mess.
Nian Nian stopped talking, but pulled the little face with his little hands, grimaced at Mike, and rolled his eyes......
Tang Qingxue sighed and shook her head.
"Come on, eat!"
"Mommy, my brother hasn't eaten yet! I'm going to pick up my brother for dinner......" Nian Nian walked under the chair.
Tang Qingxue grabbed her and forcibly hugged her to the chair, "Don't worry about this, you eat first, I'll go and see ......"
"Mike, where's Sister-in-law?"
"She's carrying the baby upstairs to bed!" said Mike, his gaze fixed on Cynthia's face, always trying to see something beneath the black veil.
Cynthia's eyes are very beautiful, the eyelashes are long and thick and upturned, and the eyes are long, especially when the eyes are down, giving people the feeling of a deer bumping......
"Upstairs, didn't she sleep on the first floor?"
"Yes, she used to sleep on the first floor, and she lived in the mercy room. Later, in the middle of the night, there was always a commotion, and she didn't dare to sleep, so she moved to the third floor. ”
"Well, you watch Niannian eat, I'll go up and have a look!"
Tang Qingxue handed Nian Nian to Mike, wiped her mouth and stood up, and went upstairs.
As soon as Mike saw Tang Qingxue leave, he immediately sat on Tang Qingxue's chair, just facing Cynthia, and he simply looked at her head-on......
"I think...... When you eat, it is better to remove the veil so that it does not get into the meal. ”
In fact, Cynthia's eating appearance is very gentle and quiet, she took a piece of bread, tore a small piece and put it in her mouth, chewing gently, in fact, the black veil covering her face seems to be only a thin layer, but it makes people's eyes impenetrable, and you can't see what kind of face is under this veil at all.
Cynthia glanced up at him, didn't seem interested in him, didn't talk to him, and continued to lower her head to eat......
"Uh, my name is Mike, don't mind making friends with me, right?"
As soon as Mike finished speaking, Nian Nian next to him smiled and said, "Auntie, don't pay attention to him, he actually wants to soak you!"
Mike immediately turned his head and glared at Nian Nian, "Nonsense!"
"Hee-hee, I'm not talking nonsense, Uncle Mack, I know everything you want!"
"What does the little girl know?"
"Me, I just ate a small green onion, so I'm a little smarter, I know what you think......" Nian Nian shook her head and said triumphantly.
"Ignore her, really, I just want to be friends with you...... Hey!"
Before Mike could finish his words, Cynthia had already walked up and walked outside.
"Uncle Mac is so embarrassed, so embarrassed!" Nian Nian smiled......
On the third floor, Tang Qingxue went upstairs with a flashlight. On the first floor, I didn't think it was too dark, but after going up to the third floor, I found that the lighting here was completely dead, once there was no light source outside, no natural light could penetrate inside. The sound of the rain gradually drowned out all the real sounds of nature, and she could only hear her own footsteps walking down the cramped corridor.
Long-term dampness, even the floor is damp, leaving a step in one step.
"Sister-in-law!!"
There are more than a dozen rooms on the third floor, and I don't know which room my sister-in-law is in, it is pitch black, Tang Qingxue doesn't want to look for it blindly, so she stood in the corridor and shouted, but after this sound, there was no response at all.
"Sister-in-law Ying, it's time to eat! That kid doesn't need to eat, you should eat too!" Tang Qingxue raised her voice and shouted again, but still no one answered her.
It's weird!
Tang Qingxue shook her flashlight in the corridor, saw some black shadow flashing, and then disappeared into a certain room.
She looked closely, and saw that the room at the end of the hallway didn't seem to be closed.
She still clearly remembers that during the period when Mercy died, she lived here, and she died in childbirth here.
Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little hairy in my heart, could it be that my sister-in-law is inside?
