Chapter 7: The Mystery of the Seven Sisters
At dinner in the evening, the younger sisters looked at the rabbit meat and happily asked where it came from, and she smiled and explained that it was given by Uncle Gao.
The second sister has a lot of contact with people outside, and she can often hear some news, and when she hears that it was given by Gao Dahan's family, she is a little worried.
"Eldest sister, I heard that the tall Han family is an orion, and he is unreasonable, you have to be careful." The second sister ate the meat and stared at Han Xiao with a worried face.
Han Xiao flicked the second sister's forehead with her fingers, "What's the matter, Uncle Gao's family is very good, you ask the eighth sister." ”
The eighth sister nodded while eating: "Uncle Gao and Aunt Xiu, they are very good, and they invited me and my sister to dinner today." ”
After dinner, Han Xiao called the second sister to his room.
The second sister thought that Han Xiao was going to teach her a lesson, but she was a little afraid to go, and kept wandering at the door.
Han Xiao looked at the hesitant second sister outside the door, and pursed her lips and smiled: "Second sister, come in quickly, I have something to ask you." ”
The second sister refused to go in for a long time, Han Xiao got up and went out to pull the second sister into the room, "How many cloth tickets do you still have." ”
The second sister took out the remaining cloth tickets and counted them on the table, "There are 5 more." ”
Han Xiao scratched his head, "Five, five is definitely not enough." ”
Han Xiao thought for a while and asked, "Second sister, can you think of another way to find a few more cloth tickets." ”
The second sister looked at Han Xiao with the eyes of a fool, "Eldest sister, you know, this ticket is fixed, and I have been saving it for a few months." ”
Han Xiao sighed in her heart, knowing that this matter could not be rushed, so she asked the second sister to use all the cloth tickets tomorrow.
The second sister was so surprised that she asked, "All of them were used?" Eldest sister, this has been used, what will we use in the future? ”
Han Xiao knew that if she didn't explain things clearly, the second sister would not agree, so she told the second sister what happened today, and the second sister was a little incredulous after listening to it.
The second sister is still a little worried: "Eldest sister, can this really work, in case you make it and people don't want it, then it's all for nothing." ”
Han smiled and said: "Second sister, don't worry, you must be able to, they go to the city very rarely, where do you know if it's from the city, besides, as long as we do a good job, even if it's not from the city, someone will still buy it." ”
The second sister was a lot relieved when she heard Han Xiao say this, "Eldest sister, then I will take the eighth sister with me tomorrow, so that the eighth sister can also go for a long time." ”
The second sister opened her mouth a little hesitantly before leaving, and finally didn't say anything.
The next day, Han Xiao got up early, went to the kitchen to cook breakfast, and called his sisters up one by one to wash up and eat.
At the dinner table, Han Xiao asked as if she suddenly remembered something: "Seventh sister, where did she go." ”
As soon as Han Xiao's voice fell, the somewhat cheerful atmosphere on the table became silent.
Han Xiao was a little confused, so she looked at her younger sisters, "What's wrong?" ”
Second Sister Han's expression was a little sad, and she said with some worry: "Eldest sister, you won't forget, Seventh Sister she disappeared last year." ”
Han Xiao then remembered that there was a plot in that movie, which said that a sister fell into a pool and drowned, but it was only vaguely mentioned in the movie, and it was not specified which sister died.
Han Xiao was stunned and was silent for a while, "Let's eat." ”
After eating, Han Xiao wanted to go out for a walk under the pretext of eating, and took the eighth sister with him by the way.
Han Xiao took the eighth sister's hand and asked the eighth sister to take her to see the place where the seventh sister's body was found, less than a hundred meters away from home, there was a shallow pond.
The pond here is used to raise fish in the village, and the number is not much, but until the Chinese New Year, each family can get a little fish, and for so many years, I have never heard of any child's accident here.
Han Xiao walked around the pond, she picked up a branch from the pond and stuck it into the water, estimating that the water depth was about 30 centimeters.
Han Xiao looked at the surrounding environment again, there were some trees, next to the crop field, there was a wooden house next to the tree, there were some tables and chairs in the house, and a simple bed, this house was used by the villagers to shelter from the rain, and sometimes they would come to rest after doing farm work.
Han Xiao thought for a while and pulled the eighth sister and asked, "How tall is the seventh sister?" ”
The eighth sister was a little confused, and she didn't know why Han Xiao asked this, she said truthfully: "As tall as me." ”
A trace of something flashed in Han Xiao's mind, and she disappeared before she could catch it, and when she heard that the seventh sister was not there, she was a little suspicious in her heart.
Han Xiao wasn't sure if her suspicions were correct, so she took the eighth sister to the place where the seventh sister died.
Now Han Xiao is almost sure that the death of the seventh sister is definitely not accidental, although she can't find out who it is now, but she must find out in the future.
Han Xiao lowered her eyes, pondered silently for a while, and then took the eighth sister back with her.
Before Han Xiao got home, he saw a woman in a black cotton jacket standing at the door of Han's house, reaching out several times to knock on the door, and finally put it down.
Han Xiao stepped forward quickly and pushed open the door of the house sideways, Xiulian was startled and took a few steps back.
The eighth sister walked over from behind Xiulian, glanced at it and said hello: "Aunt Xiulian." ”
Han Xiao also called out with the eighth sister, and then pulled Xiulian into the house.
Han Ermei was waiting for the eighth sister to come back at home, she was going to take the eighth sister to change the cloth, and she saw the guests at home coldly, she was curious to lie on the crack of the door and look out.
It was a woman in a black cotton jacket, and her eyes were very raw.
Xiulian looked at the four tiled houses that were obviously much better than her own, and there was a look of envy in her eyes.
The second sister came out of the room, shouted to her aunt to say hello, turned around and pulled Han to her side with a smile, and talked about the cloth.
Aunt Xiulian heard that they were going to change the cloth, and hurriedly took out the cloth ticket in her pocket and handed it to Han Xiao neatly: "Big sister, this is what our family saved, I will discuss it with your uncle again when I go back, I can't use your cloth all the time." ”
Han Xiao had a trace of warmth in his heart, these people were hot-hearted, and they didn't have to pick what they did, if it weren't for the shameless things that Han Xiao did in the past, he wouldn't have ended up like that.
Han Xiao took the two cloth tickets handed over by Xiulian, smiled and said: "Auntie, it's really troublesome for you, I didn't make any money here, not to mention, and gave me the cloth tickets, I don't do a roll call, I'm really sorry for my aunt's trust in me." ”
The second sister's mind turned, "Eldest sister, let's go get it together, she can't take much of the eighth sister." ”
After a few people discussed, they all felt that it was better to take it all at once, so they set off to the tailor shop together.
A total of twenty feet of cloth were exchanged for seven cloth tickets, and after the change, the three of them returned to Han's house together.
On the way home, I happened to meet Juanzi, who was an apprentice with Han Ermei, and I didn't bother to say hello when I had a big bag in my hand, and when I arrived at the tailor shop to start helping, Juanzi asked in a low voice: "Second sister, that was your eldest sister just now." ”
