Chapter 61: Uncle Trickster
"Senior brother, don't you have a tool to prevent snakes?" Chen Xin asked curiously.
"I don't know." Chen Miaoji got up and patted the weeds and dirt on his body. "When I was looking for it, I didn't know why I couldn't find it. Odd! Chen Miaoji turned all the pockets over, and the insides were turned white, but he couldn't find the props to prevent snakes.
"Let's go back first." Uncle Shi looked around in fear.
"Yes." Everyone got up and went back.
Mao Feng secretly approached Chen Miaoji, and said in his ear, "Have you seen Xiao Man?" β
Chen Miaoji hurriedly covered Mao Feng's mouth, pulled him to the back of the team and said, "How do you know that I am looking for Xiaoman?" β
Mao Feng looked at Chen Miaoji in surprise: "Didn't see it?" β
Chen Miaoji shook his head.
"You took the turtle with you, how could you not find it?"
"This is the Guide Turtle!" After walking a few steps, Chen Miaoji turned back to Mao Feng and said, "Don't tell anyone that the Divine Turtle is in my hands!" After saying that, he continued to walk his way, and said as he walked: "Why didn't you see the one who pointed here?" Odd. Is this something inaccurate? Chen Miaoji tilted his head and reached out to touch the turtle in his pocket, and when he just touched the back of the turtle, his hand instinctively retracted, for fear that the turtle would bite him.
"It stands to reason that only the Divine Turtle knows where Xiao Man is, why would Liu Qiol know? Since Liu Qiol knew where Xiao Man was, why did he go to Chen Miaoji's side to track down where Xiao Man was? It doesn't make sense. Mao Feng couldn't figure it out. (Just now Mao Feng saw the whole process of Liu Qiol and Ai Xiaoman's quarrel)
"Don't say anything until you find out." Mao Feng secretly made up his mind.
Chen Xin hurriedly ran to Chen Miaoji's room and startled Mao Feng: "Why didn't you knock when you came in?" Didn't the senior brother tell you to knock on the door before you entered? β
"Where's Big Brother?" Chen Xin said anxiously.
"In the back room!"
Chen Xin rushed in, and Chen Miaoji was changing clothes. Chen Xin just rushed in and hurriedly closed the door and stood at the door. Chen Miaoji was stunned.
"Didn't I say knock before you enter?" Chen Miaoji shouted.
Mao Feng shrugged helplessly at Chen Xin.
"Senior brother, something big has happened." Chen Xin gasped as she spoke.
After a long time, Chen Miaoji got dressed and came out: "What's the matter?" β
"The sister of Chen Meiyan, an old neighbor next door, died, and it is said that the cause of sudden death is unknown. Chen Meiyan asked us to help. β
"The dead are looking for the yamen, what's the use of looking for us? We are catching ghosts, not solving cases. β
"Chen Meiyan means that she wants to ask us to help invite her sister's soul to see what is going on and who killed her."
"Didn't you say I wasn't available? There are so many ghosts in the world, I have three heads and six arms, right? "Chen Miaoji is not very happy to meddle with these things.
"But...... Uncle Shi just received their money. Chen Xin said cautiously.
"Collect money?" Chen Miaoji strode downstairs. "When did you take money from people without my permission? What if it doesn't work out? "Chen Miaoji stood in front of Uncle Shi." Are you still in the mood to eat? (It's really the same as Ai Xiaoman, he always collects other people's money first without saying hello, and then he cleans up the mess.) οΌ
Uncle Shi squinted at Chen Miaoji and smiled, and prepared to share the snacks in his hand with him.
"You're an elder, and I respect you. But you can't just take money from people without my permission...... This is a matter of principle. Chen Miaoji was exhausted: "How much money did you charge people?" Give me the money! β
Uncle Shi spread his hands: "No money!" β
"Where's the money?" Chen Miaoji's eyes were about to fall to the ground. Ai Xiaoman will at least give him the money and then take it from him.
Uncle Shi pointed to the snacks on the table. Chen Miaoji found that the snacks on the table were all opened. Ginger is worthy of being old and spicy, so you can eat it, and you can't return it.
Chen Miaoji was completely speechless: "How much money did you collect from others?" β
Uncle Shi held up yes.
"Two money?" Chen Miaoji asked.
Uncle Shi shook his head.
"Two taels?" Chen Miaoji opened his mouth wide and said in surprise.
"Twenty taels!" Uncle Shi said, and stuffed another snack into his mouth.
"How much did you spend? You calculate, I'll make it up to you, and return it to others quickly, we can't take this job. As soon as Chen Miaoji's words fell, a delivery man knocked on the door at the gate of the yard. Uncle Shi hurriedly went out to pick it up, and the delivery man sent a piece of goods to Uncle Shi. Everyone was watching, curious about what it was.
"Uncle Shi, what is this? Such a big piece. Chen Biao asked.
"Is it a pig?" Mao Feng thought about it beautifully, and his saliva was about to come out.
"It's a sandalwood bed! I just bought it! β
Chen Miaoji gave himself a big mouthful: "You can kill me with a sword." Where am I going to find so much money to make it up for you? β
When Liu Qiol saw Chen Miaoji slapping himself, he quietly said mischievously in Mao Feng's ear: "Let go of him and let me come!" I must have played better than his! β
"No need to make it up, no need to make it up." Uncle Shi said again: "You can't go and help." β
Chen Miaoji was angry and walked away without looking back. Uncle Shi didn't feel guilty at all, and he was crazy holding his sandalwood bed. (Hey~ The world of foodies)
"Are you embarrassed to do that?" Mao Feng saw that Chen Miaoji was really angry, so he went to his uncle to reason. "I said you're not too young, why are you so naΓ―ve? It's not your own, so why should you take it? β
Chen Xin tugged at the corner of Mao Feng's clothes and motioned him to stop talking.
"Don't let me say I'm going to say it. Do you look at the time he has been here, and he has caused us less trouble? I can't do things, but I am more active than anyone else. Who has ever seen such an elder? Mao Feng shook off Chen Xin's hand: "Senior brother is offering you delicious food and drink, you are quite happy, don't you have any shame?" Aren't you guilty? Do you know how much pressure the master brother is? Aren't you also a Heavenly Master? You'll catch it yourself. Know how to eat all day long! β
Uncle Shi looked at Mao Feng quietly for a while and said, "People must eat to live." β
For you to reason with him but it doesn't make sense, and that person doesn't listen to you seriously, Mao Feng is also going crazy. "Do you know what it means when you take money from someone? I don't know how your old man's head grows. Has your conscience been bitten by a dog? β
"Mao Feng!" Chen Miaoji stood at the top of the stairs and scolded.
"I'm going to say it." Mao Feng stood in front of Uncle Shi and snatched Uncle Shi's snacks: "Delicious and delicious drink arch you, we have no complaints, then please ...... Don't make a mess. β
Uncle Shi let a little kid count his own in front of so many people, and his self-esteem was very unhappy: "Aren't I doing this for everyone's good?" Look at you, you work day and night all day long, and you don't make money, so you can't live a good life without money. Look at Chen Xin, a girl in her early twenties, with heavier dark circles under her eyes than mine, she is almost the same as an aunt in her forties, so you just want to go? β
