Chapter Seventy-Four: The Left and Right Neighbors
The rat spirit pounced on the strong man who was laughing at him, and seeing that there was a murderous look in his eyes, I dodged behind him and said, "Don't mess around." ”
The rat spirit turned his head and said, "Why, you have to protect him, won't he be your benefactor again!" ”
"He has a grudge against you?" I asked rhetorically.
"Girl, let him eat me, I'd like to see how he eats." The unidentified strong man continued his taunt.
"Shut up, get out of here." It's really unbelievable.
"Why are you so fierce, just go!"
The strong man shuffled away. The rat spirit said: "I'm not afraid of eating him, why don't you leave him as soon as you open your mouth." Tsk, it's obviously a fox, how can it look like a tigress. ”
Startled by his words, I quickly looked around to make sure no one heard him, and pulled him away from the crowd.
"You dare to reveal my identity, see if I don't clean you up."
"You're still afraid of these mortals!" The rat spirit said disdainfully.
I looked at him and said word for word: "What's wrong with mortals, I look down on it and suggest that you leave the mortal world as soon as possible, so as not to obstruct your eyes." ”
"Alright, alright, let's not say they're okay, don't mention your identity again, so you won't drive me away, right?"
"Then can you stop following me?" I say.
"Why?"
"There is a rule in the mortal world, that is, men and women do not kiss, but I have become a kiss, so please don't appear by my side again." I dragged a reason.
"You didn't really marry him, and besides, what does it mean that men and women don't kiss?"
"You can't go......" I pointed to his nose.
"Let's go." The rat spirit disappeared almost immediately after saying that.
I lost the interest in going to the store and turned around and went back to my accommodation.
When I entered the courtyard gate, I saw a lot of people sitting in the lobby...... I've only been out for a while, what's going on?
Three steps and two steps into the lobby, a room full of people looked at me.
"It's Xiao Li, didn't you go to the store, why did you come back?" Xu, who was sitting in the upper seat, saw me and said.
"Oh, I forgot something. Who are they? ”
"Is this the young lady? We all live in this neighborhood, and when we heard that Zhuo Xie Yuan had moved here, we came to visit uninvited. A well-dressed woman said softly, and behind her sat a beautiful woman of seventeen or eighteen.
At first glance, it seemed that most of the people were followed by a young woman. It feels weird.
"Hello, I hope you will take care of it in the future." I nodded with a smile and said, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and it is natural to have a good relationship.
"Where, I hope the young lady will take more care of it in the future!" Another said.
"You talk, I'll go back to the house first." I laughed.
Walking through the middle of the lobby, under their gaze, I went to the back, and there was a sentence in my ear that I don't know who said, "Daughter-in-law Ling looks really bad." ”
"Second like, my daughter-in-law......" This is Xu's voice, because I went far, I didn't hear the following words.
When I passed by the door of a room, there were two maids who were wiping the table and sweeping the floor, but before I could go far, I heard the maid Jia say, "You say, will Gongzi Zhuo choose a concubine from among them?" ”
What the? I stopped, stuck to the wall, and said, "You be quiet, who said that Gongzi Zhuo wants to take a concubine?" ”
"Hey, you see those wives are here with their own daughters, you haven't understood what they think?" A said.
"Seriously, Gongzi Zhuo is quite good-looking and talented, but he feels too cold." B said.
"Young grandma is such a lively and active person, she follows Zhuo Gongzi, you say she doesn't feel bored." A said.
"The two of them rarely see them together during the day except at night!" B said.
These two people don't say a few words on weekdays, but they actually gossip so much in private, they really underestimate them.
"Hey, do you think our young grandmother is weird?"
B's voice reappeared, but it was deliberately suppressed, but it still entered my ears.
"What's weird?" A also lowered his voice.
"It was in the middle of the night, why did we all dream of mice, and we didn't hear her say that they dreamed. Also, it's just a woman, I heard that she still runs a shop on the other side of East Street! ”
"But...... Grandma doesn't look like a bad person, and besides, she's very nice to us. ”
"That's right!"
The two of them said this, and did not say any further, and after a while they heard their footsteps walking out. I hurried away and went to the back garden, and met a girl on the way, so I asked her to make me a cup of tea.
In the back garden, Zhuo Ran was standing in front of a moon flower.
I crossed over to him and said, "I said you're either reading all day long or in a daze all day." ”
"What else can I do! By the way, didn't you go to the store? Zhuo Ran said.
"Didn't go. By the way, do you want to take a concubine? I said.
"You're entertaining me again." Zhuo Ran said and walked into the pavilion.
"The weather is nice today, I'll go out for a walk with you." I said I don't even know where Yaxing came from.
"Let's go!"
I was stunned for a moment, he would have refused in the past, why is it so refreshing today?
"Let's go." I'm still immersed in his old image.
"Let's go through the back door, there are too many people in front." Zhuo Ran said again.
Coming out of the back door in the back garden, there was a remote alley, both of them were not very familiar with this area, and it took a while to walk around to the main street.
"Where are we going?" I asked him.
"Let's walk everywhere, wherever we go." Zhuo Ran said.
"You're in a bad mood, aren't you?" I say.
"Nope. Do you listen to books? Zhuo Ran asked me.
"Let's go!" I nodded.
If you want to listen to the story, the most classic place is naturally the teahouse. I ordered a pot of good tea (I don't know what tea) and a few plates of snacks, and the storyteller spoke eloquently on it.
Zhuo Ran listened with relish, and occasionally heard someone shouting "Good!" "I'm not interested in that, just tea and snacks.
After a long time, I drank and ate enough, and just at this moment, the storyteller also ended his wonderful speech, and only heard one sentence: "If you want to know what will happen next, please listen to the next breakdown!" ”
I got up and stretched, and said to Zhuo Ran: "Let's go, it's not too early, let's go to 'Wei'er Xiang'." ”
Although I was full, Zhuo Ran didn't.
Not far from the teahouse, a woman walked up to me and walked side by side with me. At first, she didn't pay attention until she whispered, "Where is this going?" ”
I looked at her suddenly, and she happened to be looking at me, a little familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere.
"This is ......," Zhuo Ran asked me.
I also asked the woman blankly: "...... are you?"
"Me!" The woman winked at me.
Yes! Who? Looking at her more closely, I suddenly remembered who this face was, and I couldn't hold back, and I laughed in the street.
