No. 211: Grandma's Strange Things 1

I poured a cup of tea with my teacup, and the woman stood in the yard with her mobile phone and made a call!

I listened with my ears pricked up, but the woman's voice was so low that I couldn't hear clearly. ziyouge.|

Shu An, who was on the other side, saw me stretching my head out, and shook his head helplessly: "Guan Xiaoxian, how low is your IQ, do you need to listen to this kind of phone call to know what it is?" ”

I pursed my lips disappreciatively and said, "It's easy to say, but you can tell me, what is she calling for?" ”

"It must be to report to the hostess of her house, our intention!"

It seems to be true.

I went to the bottom of the eaves, and there was a bluestone tank with small fish in it, and I took fish feed to feed it.

But I faintly heard a voice coming from the side room.

It seemed that someone was crying, so I went back to Shu An and asked him, "Did you hear anything?" ”

Shu An didn't answer me, so I pushed him hard.

He took off the stuff from his ear, looked up at me suspiciously, and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

It turns out that he was listening to the song, is there any mistake, I came back to my grandmother's house after 20 years, and he didn't help me see what was wrong here, but he actually listened to music here!

I asked, a little angrily, "Did you hear anything else?" ”

He shook his head. "Nope!"

After answering, I continued to listen to the song.

I was so angry that I continued to listen with my ears pricked up, and the sound was intermittent, as if it were coming from the house on the west side.

The woman didn't say that there were other people in the house, so what was the sound over there?

I stood up and walked over there, and when I came to the door, it was one of those antique carved doors, and when I got closer, I realized that something was wrong with this door, and its color was obviously out of tune with the overall color of the house.

The other doors and windows, the color should have been old for a long time, and they had an old smell, but this door, vermilion, was as good as new.

At this moment, the 'woo' sound came from inside the door again, and I walked over lightly and reached out to push the door.

"Miss, what are you doing?" The woman's voice came from behind.

I hurriedly withdrew my hand, and turned my head to see the woman's displeasure on her face.

"I heard something strange inside, so I ......"

"Where is there any strange noise, our wife will be back soon, Miss should go over there and sit and drink tea and wait!" The woman gave me a way.

After all, it was someone else's house, and I couldn't force my way in to see it, so I had to go back to Shu'an, and he was still listening to music.

I gave him a blank look, and went to bring the teacup with my hand, and as soon as my hand was stretched out, I immediately reached back again, just because I saw that I had something on my hand, red, sticky, this ...... It can't be blood, right?

I just entered the door with this hand, how could I come back with a hand of blood?

I quickly pushed Shuan with my clean hands, and he took off his headphones and asked me, "What's wrong?" ”

"There's something wrong with this house!"

"What's wrong?" He asked, with the same expression, as if the question I was talking about was not worth mentioning.

I showed him the blood on my hand. "Look, there's blood all over that door!"

He swept his gaze to the door to the west, and then glanced at the color on my hand, and immediately held up my palm to smell it, and after smelling it, he said with disdain: "Guan Xiaoxian, what do you have in your head?" It wasn't blood, it was paint, and that door was just painted! ”

"Paint?" I couldn't believe it, I picked it up and smelled it, it was indeed a pungent smell of paint.

Embarrassed, I put down my cane and said stupidly, "I...... I thought I got blood! Hehehe. ”

Just let go of a heart, Shu An frowned suddenly, and picked up my palm again to smell.

I hurriedly asked him, "What's wrong?" ”

He replied suspiciously: "There is really a smell of blood in this smell of paint!" ”

I was shocked, didn't he just say that it was paint, why did he ask the smell of blood from the strong smell of paint in a blink of an eye?

At this time, Shu An said again: "Guan Xiaoxian, you are right, there must be something strange about that door, if it is not weird, there is no need for the Qiao family to paint only that one door, if you want to repaint, you should paint it all." ”

"I'll just say, there are people locked up in that room, and that woman must be afraid that we will find out, so she won't let me in, and she will be a thief." I speculated, and then thought of another possibility.

I hurriedly pulled Shu An aside and asked, "You say, is there something wrong with that woman just now?" Is she a domestic helper or nanny at my grandmother's house? ”

"What do you want to say?" Shu An put his hand in his trouser pocket, his eyes fixed on my suspicious cheek.

"You forgot, when Qiao Ruyun sent a letter to my father, he said that something big had happened and he wanted to ask my grandmother for help, and it has been a while, and now none of us from the Qiao family have seen such a middle-aged woman, who knows who she is?"

Shu An listened to my guess and nodded. "Yo, I can't see it, Xiao Nizi has become smarter, and she has even started to think deeply!"

With his approval, I was about to raise my head. "That's a must, it's not like I didn't know anything when I first came out of Baishan Town!" I patted my chest proudly. "I'm a true wizard now!"

"Give you some sunshine and you'll be brilliant!" He struck: "It's a pity that that woman is the maid of this Qiao family!" ”

"How do you know?" I looked at his unquestionable handsome face.

"Look at the cold clothes in the yard over there, they are still dripping, and the eldest sister must have been washing clothes before we came just now. If you look at those clothes again, some are worn by little boys, and some are worn by middle-aged women, the texture is good, it must be the hostess of this house, and the others are general, it should be the eldest sister's own! ”

After Shu An speculated, I still found that I had overlooked one thing. "What about my grandmother? The family's clothes are all there, why is there no one for my grandmother's clothes? ”

When I asked the woman if the old lady was not there, she replied unhappily that I was not there!

At this time, Shu An's eyes looked at the west door just now and narrowed slightly.

Half a ring, he told me, "Your old grandmother Qiao should be locked up in that house!" ”

I almost jumped out of breath. "You mean, my grandmother was imprisoned by this family?"

"Be quiet!" He covered my mouth and said anxiously, "Can you not be surprised?" ”

"Oh!"

At this time, there was a sound from the other side of the gate, and Shu An and I immediately looked over.

Then the woman walked in with another middle-aged woman in a long silk dress.

The woman in the long skirt is not short in height, although she is old, but her charm is still there.

Presumably this is Qiao Ruyun, my aunt.

At this moment, they approached, first glanced at Shu An beside them, and then their eyes fell on my face, stunned for a moment.

"This girl, she looks a little familiar, I don't know where I've seen it?"

I have an unforgettable feeling in my heart, I must have looked a little similar to my mother, that's why the other party said that.

Qiao Ruyun looked at Shu An again, and said in surprise: "Looking at your dress, it doesn't look like you're in the medicinal herb business at all!" ”

Shu An replied without changing his face: "Our ancestors were in the medicinal herb business, and we just took over. ”

After speaking, he also seriously asked the other party some professional questions about medicinal materials, and said it in a decent way, after the other party heard it, he didn't doubt it anymore, and invited us to sit in the house.

When we passed by the wing room on the west side, the room where we had suspected that my grandmother was being used suddenly opened!
