The man who was called the uncle of the old Zhang family, heard the old Wu shopkeeper call him Yang Shijie, who used to be a scholar, and his family was so poor that he couldn't open the pot for a while.

Later, he married a wife, whose family conditions were much better than his, and his father-in-law couldn't get used to him as a poor boy, so he disliked him openly and secretly.

Fortunately, she went to do business in other places away from her hometown, and made a fortune over the years, so she was entrusted by her wife to visit her relatives on behalf of her and ask the second elder how he was doing.

It can also be seen that Yang Shijie's face was bitter, but now that he has money, he laughs heartily and smiles happily, so he can't see a little bitterness, but when he laughs, he is full of wealth.

There is no sense of shrinking when the poor see people, and it is very natural for him to chat with Lao Wu's shopkeeper.

I don't understand why we have to watch the two of them talk about the old folks here, Lin Suqing heard almost it, and then he reacted, and when he was about to propose - since there is really no vacant room, it is better to go around the neighborhood, and find a place to stay first, and then come to this extremely yin place later.

He opened his mouth and was about to call the old Wu shopkeeper, while listening to Yang Shijie ask the old Wu shopkeeper: "Old Wu, you can help me write a room, after I put down my luggage, I can go to the back to see my father-in-law and mother-in-law." ”

Just right, let's hear if there is a vacancy for this shopkeeper who is familiar with the old acquaintance. If Yang Shijie has a vacant room, then they have to have everything they say, otherwise they are not bullying.

"Hey, Boss Yang. Knowing that Yang Shijie is now doing business by himself, and the business has become bigger, and he lives in a house when he goes out, Lao Wu no longer calls him by his full name, but calls the boss instead.

"Your father-in-law has moved a long time ago, so he doesn't live here anymore. ”

"Oh, aren't you even living in the ancestral house here?" Yang Shijie was surprised and hurriedly asked, "Where did they move to?"

Lao Wu looked sorry, sighed again and again, and said: "Don't you know wow, not long after you moved out, your mother-in-law was beaten to death by your father-in-law because of the red apricot out of the wall and stealing people to raise men outside." ”

Yang Shijie was even more shocked, unable to come back to his senses for a long time, stunned for a long time, before he came back to his senses, and said in disbelief: "Impossible, my mother-in-law's person, who lives in the neighborhood does not know who does not know, what a virtuous and virtuous person! She is kind from the bottom of her heart, and she is also obedient to her father-in-law, how can she ...... How could it be, this is !!"

"Alas, if it weren't for that, how could your father-in-law be so ruthless as to beat her to death!" Lao Wu was also very emotional, thinking that in his heart, Yang Shijie's mother-in-law was not that kind of person.

"Where does my father-in-law live now? Old Wu, tell me that I must go to him early tomorrow morning to ask him for clarification. Yang Shijie was very angry, he should have been the favor of his mother-in-law in the past.

However, if he had not received the favor of his mother-in-law, how could he marry someone else's daughter as a wife with his poor and white family background.

Thinking of this, Lin Suqing, who listens to gossip, will also think that Yang Shijie's mother-in-law should be an enlightened person, not to mention how open-minded, probably not a person who hates the poor and loves the rich.

"Even I don't know where he's moved to. Lao Wu took off the hat on his head, wiped a handful of sweat on his head, now in addition to two outsiders in the hall, and the work in the store, there is only Yang Shijie left, all of them are familiar faces, he pulled Yang Shijie aside and sat down, and said: "Your father-in-law's family used to be rich, but later, not only did the business get worse and worse, but also contracted the problem of good gambling. ”

The more Yang Shijie listened, the more anxious he became, although his father-in-law once disliked him, but he never held a grudge, not to mention that he did not grow up at the beginning, he did not become a climate, and he only knew how to die and study all day long, if it wasn't for the father-in-law scolding him every day, where would he wake up and pick up the burden of supporting his family, and where would he have today's wealth, I am afraid that he would have been so poor that he could not eat, and the family would have starved to death.

"And then?"

"Later, when he couldn't pay me back up, he mortgaged the land to me, and I built a building here and started an inn business. Lao Wu said, afraid of misunderstanding something, and hurriedly took Yang Shijie's hand and added: "But I haven't demolished their old house, it's still to come, and your father-in-law's two houses are restored." ”

"Lao Wu, you have a heart, and I am grateful. ”

"It's not a secret, but it's not that I want to stay. Lao Wu was quite ashamed, and said truthfully, "Didn't you just say, your father-in-law beat your mother-in-law to death, so those two rooms are very evil." ”

"Evil Sect?"

Hearing this, not only Yang Shijie was stunned, but Lin Suqing was also surprised, sure enough, he didn't come to the wrong place, the evil door was right, and if they didn't have the evil door, wouldn't they just run away in vain.

"Yes, business here is good, there are many foot traders, I can't live in it a few times, and the rooms are full. Lao Wu 1510 said, "I'll think about writing out the two rooms of your father-in-law's house, anyway, it's empty and empty, it's better to clean up and live as a guest." As you know, a house has to be popular. I think it's better to have a guest than an empty one, and the popularity can continue to keep the house. ”

Lao Wu picked up the handkerchief again and wiped the top of his bare head, and said in shock and fear: "But those two rooms are haunted, and the people who lived in them are gone, and even if they come out the next day, they are all crazy, only shouting 'There are ghosts!'" ”

"Are there really ghosts...... Is it my mother-in-law......"

"I don't know, I've also been to see it, with ingots, incense candles and the like, but it should be lit or lit, and I haven't seen anything unusual. But it's not good for the guests, there are always accidents, I don't dare to write anymore, I can't afford this responsibility, if there are a few more things, who would dare to come to live in my store. ”

"There are such things...... Yang Shijie also sighed, the two of them were silent for a long time, Yang Shijie said: "Lao Wu, you help me write a room first, I will live tonight, and tomorrow I will inquire about my father-in-law's residence, and then I will ask if I understand." ”

"Boss Yang, it's not that my old Wu doesn't want to receive you, I'm full here, and there are no spare rooms. Saying that, he suddenly remembered Lin Suqing and the two of them, so he looked around, found the figures of the two of them in front of the table in the opposite corner, pointed to the two of them and said to Yang Shijie: "Look, those two foreign guests, I have to pay a lot of money to write the room, I can't do it." There are really no more vacancies. ”

"That's right. Yang Shijie thought about it again and again, and said after a while, "In that case, Lao Wu, you give me the key to my father-in-law's house, and I will stay at my father-in-law's house tonight." ”

Lao Wu was startled, his big eyes widened, "I heard you right, that house is haunted!"

"What kind of haunting can you do, my mother-in-law's ghost? She helped us a lot during her lifetime, and she can still harm me after she dies?"

Lao Wu thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he followed him and said: "That's the same, I can't hurt you, let my daughter be widowed, don't you?" You wait first, I'll go find the key." ”

While Lao Wu was looking for the key, Lin Suqing immediately came to the table and said to Yang Shijie: "This big brother, my wife and I have nowhere to stay in the middle of the night, we just heard that your family has two rooms behind this inn, I don't know if we can get a room for us to stay overnight? ”

That Yang Shijie is a person who has endured hardships, and when he heard this, he was also generous, and said directly: "Eh, what money is not rich, if you really have no place to live, just follow me, but ......"

He said sincerely, "You should have heard it too...... About my father-in-law's two rooms......"

"I hear you. But it doesn't matter, we don't believe that. As long as there is a place to live. ”

Yang Shijie agreed in one bite and chatted with Lin Suqing, the two of them chatted happily, but they were so angry that they gritted their teeth. She sat at a table diagonally opposite them, heard what Lin Suqing said clearly, and couldn't wait to whip him on the spot, and wanted to cut his tongue!

See if he dares to talk nonsense!
