As the evening wore on, the two young men walked happily to their grandmother's house in the afterglow of half the sky.

"Xiaowen, why is the door of that family always closed, is there no one inside?" Passing by the soybean next to the big locust tree again, his curiosity became stronger and stronger, and he asked about the small article next to him.

"I don't know, I haven't been back for a long time, I'll find out when I go back and ask grandma." Saying that, Huang Dou and Xiaowen quickened their pace.

Turning along the stone-paved road, and then around a large pond, I came to my grandmother's house. Before I entered the house, I smelled the smell of rice.

"Grandma, we're back!" Xiaowen who entered the door called grandma loudly.

"Ouch! You're back, I'm waiting for you all to be in a hurry, hurry over and wash your hands and get ready to eat! As she spoke, Grandma beckoned the two young men into the room to sit down.

Because it was too hot in summer, the roofs of the bungalows here were very high, and the two people who walked into the room suddenly felt much cooler. An electric fan on the beam of the house is still working in his head.

"It's so cool!" Soybean said as he sat down at the dining table.

While bringing scrambled tomatoes and scrambled eggs to the table, the grandmother instructed the two young men to eat first, and then quickly stew the fish she caught.

Looking at the delicious meals on the table, the soybeans on the side couldn't help but swallow their saliva. Hurriedly said to Xiaowen with fish-flavored shredded pork in the soybean bowl: "Hungry, hurry up and eat, Brother Yimao!" ”

"Hmmm! This fish-flavored shredded pork is so delicious, and the taste is much better than that in the restaurant. Soybeans said as he gulped the rice into his mouth.

"Xiaowen, let's come to grandma's house more often when we have time in the future!" Soybean said as he stuffed his mouth to the brim.

"Okay, grandma is nearly seventy years old, and she must be lonely in this big house alone." Xiaowen also said while eating.

"The spicy fish is ready!" Accompanied by her grandmother's long tone, her grandmother, who was carrying a steaming dish, entered the house with a smile.

"Hurry up and try it, how does it taste?" Grandma asked happily as she sandwiched the fish between the two young men.

"Hmmm! It's delicious! The two young men eating the fish said in unison.

"Haha! Eat more if it's delicious! ”

Grandma also sat down to eat with the two young men. It's been a long time since the family has been so lively, and today's grandma is really happy. The mouth is always happy to let the two young people eat more.

"Grandma, is there still anyone living in the old Li family with a big locust tree at the back of the village?" Xiaowen asked while eating.

"He's here! It's always been occupied! It's just that the situation of other people's homes is getting better and better, but his family is getting more and more dilapidated, and even the house is still an old house more than ten years ago. Grandma said as she ate.

"Why doesn't his house be renovated?" The soybean on the side also asked curiously.

"Hey! Since Lao Li's daughter-in-law hanged himself on the locust tree in his house, the situation of his family has been getting worse day by day, Lao Li later married a daughter-in-law, but it also provoked the father and daughter to turn against each other, his daughter has never returned home, and his daughter-in-law has also suffered from the mental illness of his previous wife. Some people say that his family is too resentful, so everything will not go well. Lao Li is a primary school teacher, but not long ago, he broke his leg while riding a bicycle, and now he can only lie at home every day, let his mentally ill wife take care of him. Grandma said with regret.

"Then his family is really miserable!" Xiaowen also regretted it.

"Does his locust tree still bloom three seasons a year?" Huang Dou frowned and asked his grandmother curiously.

"Oh, you ask the big locust tree in his yard, yes, that tree does only bloom three seasons a year, and I haven't seen it grow leaves for so many years. Someone told Lao Li that it was a ghost tree, and the reason why his family was so unlucky was because of that tree, so Lao Li quickly cut it down. But some people say that the big locust tree in his house is a sacred tree, and that tree is shaking the demons and ghosts! Grandma said mysteriously.

"That tree is so amazing, I really want to see it!" Soybean, who finished the last bite of rice, said excitedly.

"You two must not go near his house, every time the people here pass by his door, they walk around for fear of sticking to the bad luck." As she spoke, the grandmother on the side widened her eyes and asked.

"Got it, Grandma! You see, we have eaten up this large plate of fish, it is so delicious! Xiaowen picked up the little fish meat left in the fish bones, and replied to his grandmother's words with a grin.

"It's delicious, I like to eat fish, there are a few left in the kitchen, I'll make them for you two tomorrow!" Seeing that the two young people had finished eating, grandma got up and was about to put away the dishes, and Xiaowen next to him saw that grandma was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and he hurriedly followed to help.

After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, it was completely dark, the moonlight was shining tonight, the starry sky was thousands of miles, and it was rare to see soybeans and Xiaowen in the courtyard on such a beautiful night in the city.

"Brother Yimao, do you think there are really ghosts in the old Li family?" Xiaowen on the side asked curiously to the soybeans who were lying on the mat with his eyes staring at the stars.

"I don't know, maybe there is!" Huang Dou said, his eyes narrowed.

Xiaowen, who thought that Soybeans was sleepy and was about to fall asleep, got up and went to the room to get a blanket for Soybeans, and he yawned and went to his grandmother's room to sleep.

The only remaining soybean opened his eyes to look at the sky from time to time, and suddenly, just as the soybean opened his eyes carelessly again, a white shadow floated in front of him.

"Who?" Soybean sat up vigilantly and looked around, the soybean's eyesight at night was surprisingly good, and the soybeans with yellow eyes easily crossed to the roof and looked around to check the entire courtyard.

After looking around, I didn't see a figure, I thought I was wrong, and I was about to go back to sleep, but I didn't expect that in the south where I raised my head, the white shadow appeared again.
