Li Shi's house is in Lijiagou, next to Liushu Village, and he didn't want it for a quarter of an hour from Dafeng Village.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the situation in each village is similar, mainly to pay New Year's greetings and visit the door, and you can see people gathering together in twos and threes everywhere to chat.

A horse-drawn carriage and a mule cart are still quite eye-catching in the countryside, and since they entered Lijiagou, they have attracted many people's scrutiny, and they are all speculating about whose decent relatives this is.

Until Ji Yu lifted the curtain and asked Li Shi's name.

The person who was asked looked confused, and the people around him also looked at each other.

At first, he suspected that he had heard it wrong, but after confirming that he had heard it correctly, he began to guess Ji Yu's motives - either to ask for debts or to settle accounts.

Ji Yu denied them one by one.

"We are friends of Li Shi, and we are here to pay him a New Year's greeting."

Friend? That coffin boy actually has a friend?! That's a big surprise!

The villagers who were standing in the distance and quietly observing, hearing this, also gathered around this side.

"You're not making fun of us, are you? What friends can he have! ”

A middle-aged woman with a full face swept them one by one with a look of "I'm very shrewd, you don't want to lie to me".

"If you want to settle accounts with him, just say it, don't worry, we will shield him and not show you the way."

Her words attracted many people to echo her.

"I'll just say, the coffin suddenly returned to the village a year ago, bought a lot of things, and made up the house, it must have been obtained by cheating......"

"No, it can't be a meal!"

"The blind mother-in-law also said that he found a good job in Yeyang, earning innocent money, and he laughed at his big teeth, who dares to ask him?"

"He went to the brick kiln last year, begging for life, and the kiln head left him behind, but he was driven away within a few days, do you know why?"

"What else? My man was on the kiln at the time, and he said that since he went to the coffin and gave birth to a child, he had never been on the kiln, and there were always accidents...... It's also to blame the kiln head, any kind of person dares to use it, and bad luck is also self-inflicted! ”

Everyone was talking about it, and the topic slowly drifted away.

Ji Yu and Zhang Cuicui were still smiling, but at this moment, one or two of them all sank their faces.

There are also sober people, seeing that Ji Yu's face has changed, and they feel that something is wrong, so they think they are kind to ask and remind.

"Oops! You can't really be the friend of the coffin child, right? He's been dressed like a dog lately, but don't be fooled by him, he's not from a good background......"

Speaking of this, he deliberately lowered his voice, his eyes glanced left and right, and he looked like he was going to say something secret.

But obviously, the secret he was going to say was known to everyone present.

Ji Yu also knows.

So she directly interrupted the man.

"I know what you're going to say, it's nothing more than him who was born after his mother's death, he crawled out of the belly of a dead man, he was born unknown, who suffers and who is unlucky, right?"

The man was taken aback, and the energetic mothers-in-law who were talking about it also quieted down.

"You, you know, and you're still friends with him?"

Ji Yu frowned and suppressed her anger, knowing that it was just a waste of time to break with these people. Concepts that have been ingrained for many years cannot be reversed in a few words.

"Who we make friends with is our own business. I only know that since he came to our store, the business of our store has been booming, and we have not been unlucky, but all of us have been lucky. ”

"That's it! We're good! ”

Zhang Cuicui couldn't look past it and answered angrily.

"Li Shi is down-to-earth, he can also write and calculate, much better than those who can only chew the root of his tongue behind his back, if he doesn't be friends, it will be difficult to ...... with you"

Xu Laifu tugged at her.

The eyes signaled to her, even if she didn't look down on these people, she shouldn't make a provocation, in case of a conflict, they are nothing, they can leave with a pat on their buttocks, but Li Shi still has to live in this village.

Zhang Cuicui understood, and closed her mouth reluctantly.

Xu Laifu said with a smile: "Folks, we just want to ask you for directions, if it's convenient, please let me know." ”

Someone pointed in a stunned direction.

After Xu Laifu thanked him, several people got into the car and went directly in that direction.

The crowd was silent for a few moments, and then exploded with a bang.

What was being discussed behind them, Ji Yu didn't care anymore.

All the way through, all I encountered were such eyes and discussions, until I came to a low and dilapidated fence courtyard, and my ears were quieter.

The house in front of him is made of mud and the thatched hut is the roof, and there are traces of repair everywhere, whether it is the wall or the roof.

Zhang Cuicui looked at Ji Yu with a complicated mood: "This is almost catching up with the broken shack you lived in at the beginning." ”

The Xu brothers were a little surprised.

They have only seen Ji Yu's current home, such a good house, not to mention the top-notch in Dafeng Village, it is also one of the best, how can it ......

"That's now, when she first broke up, she lived in a broken shack, leaking everywhere, the walls of the house were crooked, I heard that it was still haunted, and no one in our village went over there, what do you think about the desolation?"

In a short period of time, he started from scratch, with a house and a house, and the Xu brothers were full of admiration after hearing it.

However, when these words fall on the ears of some people, they have a completely different mood.

Guan Shan lowered his eyes and looked at Ji Yu, his eyes were difficult to distinguish.

Ji Yu didn't take it to heart.

"Alright, let's call the door."

Xu Laifu shouted Li Shi, and no one came out after shouting several times.

"It won't be absent, will it? Where can I go for this big New Year......"

As he spoke, he saw a rickety figure groping out of the house.

"Who?"

Ji Yu knew at a glance that this gray-haired, thin, and small grandmother was most likely the blind mother-in-law who raised Li Shi.

The blind mother-in-law was on crutches, groping towards the gate of the courtyard little by little, and the snow in the yard was very clean, but the surface was frozen, and it was easy to slip.

Afraid that the old man would fall, they were no longer formal, and pushed the door directly into the yard.

"Mother-in-law, we are here to find Li Shi, is Li Shi at home?"

When the blind mother-in-law heard that she was looking for Li Shi, she was a little nervous to the naked eye, and probably thought that they were looking for trouble.

Li Shi is not a troublemaker, which shows how much he has been bullied before.

"Mother-in-law, don't be nervous, we are Li Shi's friends, we just want to come to visit the New Year, there is no other meaning......"

"You—Are you really a friend of Little Persimmon?" The blind mother-in-law suddenly became excited, "Quick, quick, please come in." ”

Ji Yu and Zhang Cuicui entered the house with their blind mother-in-law on the left and right.

The house is really cramped, and there is no hall, only a curtain is set up in the middle, and one is barely divided into two.

When the mother-in-law entered the house, she poured water for them, and brought them cakes and fruits.

These are all bought by Li Shi for her, and she is reluctant to eat them, but she is willing to take them out to entertain Li Shi's friends.

"Little Persimmon has no friends since he was a child, and the children in the village don't play with him, scold him all day long, and hit him with bricks...... In fact, the little persimmon is a good boy, very benevolent and righteous, don't dislike him......"

Ji Yu grabbed her busy hand.

"Mother-in-law, don't be busy, we all just came here after eating, and we're not hungry."

After a pause, he said: "Li Shi is really good, we all like him very much." ”

Hearing someone praise the Li style, a flower smiled on the blind mother-in-law's wrinkled face.
