028, grandpa's rocking chair
As soon as I entered the lawyer's office today, Xiao Wang stopped me, "Xiaoxue, the big boss asked you to come to his office." ”
"What's the matter?" I asked, raising my eyebrows.
"I don't know, I seem to be in a hurry." Xiao Wang shrugged his shoulders, and then flicked the hair on his shoulders behind him, looking very charming.
I chuckled and walked towards Yan Xucheng's office.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw that he was talking to a middle-aged man, and I immediately stuck out my tongue, "I'm sorry, I don't know if you have a guest, you talk first, I'll come back later." ”
"Alas, Xiaoxue, don't go, I'll just wait for you." Yan Xucheng stood up and stopped me.
I gave him a strange look, then slowly turned my gaze to the middle-aged man who was looking back at me, and after a moment of staring at him, I sighed and raised the corners of my mouth.
"Xiaoxue, this is my Chen Shibo, he really wants to ask you to help him." Yan Xucheng looked at me carefully.
I took a deep breath, graciously walked over to the couch in front of them and sat down, glancing at the two of them, "Tell me if I can help." ”
Chen Shibo's eyes immediately showed joy.
"Miss Xia, you are a well-informed person, and you have encountered such things, but it is really the first time I have encountered it, so I am at a loss, help me take a look." Chen Shiliang grabbed my hand through the coffee table, a little excited.
I looked at him with a wrinkled face, but his affection was very excited now and he didn't notice my embarrassment at all, but Yan Xucheng really saw it, and he immediately came over and pulled down Chen Shibo's hand, "Shibo, don't worry about this matter, you have to tell Xiaoxue what happened first, or Xiaoxue doesn't know what it is, how can you ask her to help you." ”
I smiled gratefully at Yan Xucheng, and then nodded to the "Chen Shibo".
"Oh, I'm sorry, I was so excited just now, I lost my temper." Chen Shibo patted his forehead.
I took a sip of the water that Yan Xucheng put on the table, stabilized my feelings, and also made this Chen Shibo steady and stable.
"Here's the thing, my father passed away last month, but since he died, the family has often noticed some strange things, and my grandson is even stranger, and the whole family is terrified." Chen Shibo said to himself, but I looked at Yan Xucheng with an embarrassed expression.
What is this, I didn't say anything serious, and my head hurts when I hear it.
"Chen Shibo, after your father died, what happened wrong in the family?" Yan Xucheng asked with a smile.
"It's the rocking chair in the room where he used to live, he can move, and my little grandson often runs to that room, and he doesn't want to come out as soon as he enters, and his laughter comes from that room, but when we go in and see, there is nothing, and I don't know what he is playing in the house, why he is so happy." Chen Shibo looked at Yan Xucheng, and the doubts in his eyes were obvious.
"Chen Shibo, did your father particularly like this grandson of yours before he died?" Yan Xucheng glanced at me and asked.
"Yes, after my grandson was born, my father didn't mention how happy he was, almost every day he would hug him, look at it, tease him or something, and my grandson was not very close to me and my son, so he kissed his great-grandfather, and the grandparents sometimes played with each other and didn't care about anything." Chen Shibo said while thinking.
I smiled understandingly, and nodded to Chen Shibo, who was still reminiscing, "Chen Shibo, I want to visit the house tomorrow night, and then please ask your family to take your little grandson away from the house, I don't want to scare the child." ”
"Okay, okay, then I'll go back and arrange it, and I'll wait for you tomorrow." Chen Shibo looked at me expectantly.
I just smiled and nodded, Chen Shibo didn't stay any longer, stood up and said a few words to Yan Xucheng and left.
When Yan Xucheng sent Chen Shibo back, I was sitting on the sofa pondering, Yan Xucheng came over and sat opposite me and looked at me, "Xiaoxue, don't do it if you are embarrassed, I don't want to force you." ”
"I'm not worried about this, I'm worried that I might be a famous person in the future." I looked at him with a smile.
"No, I also reminded Chen Shibo that this matter must not be publicized, otherwise I won't help him." Yan Xucheng patted my hand.
"Now I'm really going to become a ghost-catching wizard." I laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Xiaoxue, no one will look at you like this, everything you do is to help others, what kind of wizard, you also press such ugly words on yourself?" Yan Xucheng frowned disapprovingly.
"Senior Brother Yan, you think I want to, but now someone really sees me like this, and if this Chen Shibo's matter spreads, my identity will be confirmed, and I can't change it, and people are terrible." I smiled wryly.
"Don't worry, I'm here, if Chen Shibo really doesn't keep his promise and spreads your news, then we won't help those people anymore in the future, let them scare themselves to death." Yan Xucheng looked at me with a righteous and awe-inspiring face, and the guarantee of the ticket was hard, which made me feel that it was all true.
When I got home in the evening, I told Lin Haoran about today's incident, Lin Haoran looked at me noncommittally, I knew that he didn't agree with me to take this job, but now he couldn't object, because I had already promised someone.
"Come with me tomorrow, I'm afraid if he really doesn't want to leave or for some reason, I won't be able to deal with it." I carefully tugged at his sleeve.
"You, you really know how to work, of course I will go with you, do you think I will rest assured that you will go by yourself?" Lin Haoran looked at me helplessly.
I smirked "hehe", no matter what the reason is, anyway, I know that Lin Haoran will definitely stand with me, and that's enough.
The next night, I took Lin Haoran and Yan Xucheng to Chen Shibo's house, which was brightly lit, but it was not popular at all.
After Chen Shibo introduced us into his house, he left in a hurry in fear, threw me and Yan Xucheng at his house, stood in the living room and looked at the closed door, Yan Xucheng and I looked at each other and smiled bitterly, this is also too funny, although my father is dead, how can I be a relative, so I won't be afraid of being like this, right?
Just as I was about to sigh a little deeper about the indifference of human feelings in this world, we heard the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground from upstairs.
I first looked at Lin Haoran for a moment, and then immediately turned to Yan Xucheng and said, "Senior Brother Yan, you can go out now, just wait for me outside." ”
"Then what's the matter, you're here alone, I'm not at ease, no, absolutely not, I have to ensure your safety even if I say anything." Yan Xu resolutely rejected my request.
"But, I ......"
"Don't say it, I'll follow you, no matter how you say it, it's good to have one more person." Yan Xucheng interrupted me, it seems that he has really decided.
I looked at Lin Haoran helplessly, but Lin Haoran smiled, "Let him follow." ”
I exhaled and could only nod.
We walked upstairs together, and at the second door on the left side of the second floor, we stopped, this should be the room where Chen Shibo said his father lived before his death.
I gently pushed the door open, and the first thing that caught my eye was the rocking chair.
Yan Xucheng's eyes widened all at once, because he only saw a moving rocking chair and nothing else, but what I saw was an old man sitting on a rocking chair and rocking.
I politely saluted him, "Uncle, may I come in?" ”
Yan Xucheng immediately looked at me, he knew what I had seen, fortunately he reacted quickly enough, immediately adjusted his expression, and also saluted the rocking chair, "Grandpa Chen, I am Xucheng, Yan Xucheng." ”
"Stinky boy, what are you doing here? You still bring a girl, what are you doing, do you want to drive me away? Grandpa Chen, who was sitting in the rocking chair, looked at Yan Xucheng with an unhappy expression, but I really wanted to laugh at this time.
Lin Haoran hugged me in time and reminded me not to do stupid things, otherwise the grandfather in front of me would really be angry.
Of course, Grandpa Chen, who was sitting in the rocking chair, also saw Lin Haoran's actions towards me, he raised his eyes and looked at Lin Haoran and me seriously for a while, and gently raised the corners of his mouth, "Isn't this a kid from the Lin family?" Why are you coming? Is this girl the one you can't forget? ”
"Yes, grandpa, I said I was going to bring her to you, but you don't keep your promises, why are you leaving so soon? It's not interesting enough. Lin Haoran chuckled and said to Grandpa Chen.
His words made me petrify instantly, isn't it, Lin Haoran and this Grandpa Chen are acquaintances, and they are very familiar with each other.
"Alas, I want to wait for you too, but I'm getting older, I really can't help it. But I didn't leave, didn't you come here today to see me? Is there something else? Grandpa Chen sighed, but his words were very kind.
"Grandpa, we are here today to let you leave, your storage zài has already made your children and grandchildren feel uneasy, and they are very scared." Lin Haoran also sighed, it is not easy for anyone to say this kind of thing.
"These little calves usually don't seem to be afraid of anything, but now they are afraid of me, and they should really cut them." Grandpa Chen pursed his lips, but I saw all the sadness in his eyes.
"Grandpa, is there something you can't let go?" I looked at this old man with a smile and felt as if he was also my relative.
"Girl, can you help me?" Grandpa Chen looked at me, and the temperature in his eyes was so kind.
"Grandpa, I can't say it's going to be done, I can try." I modestly replied that I would not dare to boast in front of this old man.
"Well, you are a rare good boy, no wonder this Lin family kid is so determined to you." Grandpa Chen suddenly changed the topic, which made me very uncomfortable, and I stood there at a loss and couldn't answer at all.
"Grandpa, can you not do this? She's good, I already knew, do you still need to say it? Lin Haoran smiled unceremoniously at Grandpa Chen.
"Okay, you kid is blessed, if I have a good grandson, and I'm not married, I'll let him try it with you, as long as you kid can, such a good girl will let you go, and she'll show off here." Grandpa Chen pouted again, and I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Really, do you think people can snatch my Xue'er away? If that person is really better than me, better than me to her, and can give her happiness better than me, then let this person try, but my Xue'er really can't really take a fancy to him, because my Xue'er only has me in her eyes. Lin Haoran raised his eyebrows at Grandpa Chen as he spoke, but I looked at him with my mouth wide open, and I couldn't say a word.
"Haha, you're still the same as before, you're still so confident, but I like it, young people have to be crazy, otherwise they won't be crazy when they're old." Grandpa Chen looked at Lin Haoran happily, his eyes full of appreciation.
Yan Xucheng naturally looked at us, he felt like an outsider now, because he couldn't see anything, he could only hear me talking there alone, and my expression made him no longer know what the situation was now.
"Grandpa, can I do anything for you?" I'm going to end the time of the old and young couple right away, or I'm going to figure out something amazing in a while.
"Girl, I just want to stay in this house for a while longer, play with my great-grandson for a while, I really like this child, and he must be a material to be made when he grows up, I can't see it, but I really want to spend more time with him." Grandpa Chen looked at me seriously, I smiled, what he said was true, this was his wish.
"But, Grandpa, your son and grandson are a little scared, because your great-grandson will come to you often, and he will be very happy every time, and they know that he is not normal now, so your son will find me through Senior Brother Guò Yan and want you to ...... Well...... "I was embarrassed to tell me what happened, I really didn't want this old man to misunderstand me."
"I understand that my existence is not normal to them, and when a person dies, he should leave this world of living people, hmph, I understand." Grandpa Chen laughed coldly.
"Grandpa, I'm not here to force you to leave, I don't have the ability, I'm just here to see what the situation is, if you still want to spend some more time with your great-grandson, I have no opinion, but I just want to tell you that you shouldn't spend too long with him, it's not good for him." I was careful to say my advice, and I think that's all I could do.
While I was watching Grandpa Chen's reaction in embarrassment, the door to Grandpa Chen's room was suddenly pushed open, and a 17 or 8-year-old boy stood there, looking at us angrily and shouting, "Who are you? Why is it here? Who let you in? ”
Yan Xucheng was the first to recognize him, and immediately walked over to pat the boy's shoulder, but he blocked it with one hand, Yan Xucheng smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Xiaopeng, I am your Uncle Yan, we came here to see at the request of your grandfather." ”
"Grandpa? What right does he have to let you come and disturb my great-grandfather? The boy glanced at Yan Xucheng coldly, then turned his gaze to me and asked coldly, "You are the female Taoist priest who can catch ghosts?" ”
"What?" I asked him in surprise, the disdain in his eyes was real, I was so angry.
Lin Haoran also frowned, he didn't expect the boy to say such disrespectful things to me.
"Who sued you, I'm a 'female Taoist' who can catch ghosts? I can only see the Yin Spirit, and as for the 'Taoist' you mentioned, I don't have that skill yet. I looked at him coldly, and the temperature in my tone dropped.
"Xiaopeng, don't talk to your sister like this, it's too rude." At this time, Grandpa Chen spoke.
"Great-grandfather, why are you still talking for them, they are here to catch you." Xiaopeng was unconvinced and reasoned with Grandpa Chen.
This surprised me and Lin Haoran, isn't it, this kid can communicate with Grandpa Chen, and Yan Xucheng opened his mouth in surprise.
"This sister and brother standing in front of you, they are not 'Taoists', they are soul fate masters, this profession is very noble, it is for us Yin spirits to solve difficulties, you can't be so rude." Grandpa Chen patiently explained to Xiaopeng.
This time I was even more speechless, Grandpa Chen's knowledge was too wide, how did he know that we were soul crossing masters? And not only know that I am, but also know that Lin Haoran is too.
"Didn't they come to get you? So what are they doing here? Xiaopeng looked at us seriously again, and asked Grandpa Chen with a look of disbelieving.
"Your grandfather found it, thinking that I still have some unfulfilled wishes, so let them help me." Grandpa Chen sneered.
"Great-grandfather, are you leaving soon? I don't want you to go, there's so much you haven't taught me. Xiaopeng said and walked up to Grandpa Chen, squatted in front of the rocking chair, and looked up at Grandpa Chen.
"Xiaopeng, great-grandpa didn't want to go, but it's a matter of time before I go, I will teach you some things, but the real practice is in reality, it is not enough to talk on paper, you have to practice more, practice more, watch more, listen more, speak less, let yourself have correct judgment, give yourself enough space to play, so that you can succeed." Grandpa Chen touched Xiaopeng's head lovingly and said softly.
"Great-grandfather, I understand what you said, but I really don't want to lose you, I haven't really learned it yet, you won't rest assured of me, right, stay with me for a while, okay?" Xiaopeng looked up at Grandpa Chen expectantly, his eyes full of sadness and reluctance.
"Grandpa, I can see that Xiaopeng is a studious child, so you can stay and teach him more, just like when you taught me." Lin Haoran looked at Grandpa Chen and grandchildren with a smile.
"Yes, grandpa, stay with him for a while, Xiaopeng will definitely understand." I also spoke out to persuade Grandpa Chen.
Originally, I came today to see the situation, and I can't do anything about this situation now, seeing Xiaopeng so attached to Grandpa Chen, I am also very envious.
"Really? Isn't Xpeng dangerous? As soon as Yan Xucheng saw me say this, he immediately leaned over and whispered in my ear.
"Well, I don't think Grandpa Chen wants anything to happen to Xiaopeng, as long as he masters the distance and time, Xiaopeng will not be in danger." I replied softly.
Of course Yan Xucheng didn't know about this kind of thing, thinking about her ex-girlfriend who had been by his side for so long, and he was fine, as well as Mr. Kong's first wife, there were too many such examples, so I wasn't worried at all.
"Girl, if I want to stay with Xiaopeng for a few years or more than ten years, you won't care, right?" Grandpa Chen looked at me and asked.
"What? Grandpa, you don't think of me as a 'Taoist priest', do you? I looked at him amusedly.
"Hehe, of course, how could I treat you as that kind of useless thing, it's just that I want to stay for a few more years, first, to accompany Xiaopeng more, and second, I want to see you two achieve good things." Saying that, Grandpa Chen stretched out his finger and pointed at me and Lin Haoran.
I was immediately stunned there, and I couldn't pick up a word, Lin Haoran lowered his head and laughed, Grandpa Chen immediately laughed heartily when he saw the two of us, and Xiaopeng, who was squatting in front of him, looked at us in surprise, thinking, "The two of them? Isn't it, the ghost is not over? ”
"Silly boy, you will have to ask your brother more in the mall in the future, he is a wizard in the business world." Grandpa Chen stretched out his hand and nodded on Xiaopeng's head, smiling lovingly.
"Really?" After Xiao Peng finished speaking, the corners of his mouth were raised, but his psychology fluctuated very much.
"Little master, don't think about those useless things, learn from grandpa, when you can stand alone, you will definitely meet him there, and then you will know that your great-grandfather's words are true." I looked at Xiaopeng funny, a guy with a big ghost, it's really not easy to get it.
"You, how do you know......" Xiaopeng stretched out his hand and pointed at me, looking incredulous.
"Because sister, I know what you're thinking, didn't you guess right?" I teased him, but it was also to cover up, and I didn't want to scare him.
"Grandpa, let's go first, you and Xiaopeng can discuss a better way, don't worry your family anymore, if you need to, you can let Xiaopeng come to us, you should know our whereabouts, right?" Lin Haoran smiled faintly.
"Well, you guys should go back first." Grandpa Chen nodded to me.
In this way, we left Chen's house, and outside the door, we saw Chen Shibo and his son sitting in the car with their necks stretched and waiting for the result.
But as soon as I saw that they were so afraid of their father's yin spirit, I didn't feel very comfortable in my heart, how could I say that they were also relatives, how could I be afraid of being like that, I couldn't understand it, but I was quite happy for Xiaopeng, because he should be the one who benefited the most, that is, he gained family affection, and also gained the knowledge of the shopping mall, because there is a shopping mall veteran who is teaching him.
Before leaving, Lin Haoran and I looked at the window of Chen's house together, Grandpa Chen and Xiaopeng were standing there waving to us, Lin Haoran and I also raised our hands and waved to them, it seems that we will have the opportunity to meet in the future.
