Chapter 108: Night Rain
"That's it, I know all these things. I've already asked someone to set up a car, and you'll go to Punpu with me later! I'll let you investigate the matter of the Gu family's girl, it's rotten in the stomach, no one is allowed to mention it, do you understand?" Tao had already suppressed the tears that were about to overflow his eyes, and commanded the mother-in-law next to him.
The mother-in-law has been by Dow's side for many years, and has been helping her find out the shady news, and of course she knows the importance of this matter. If these news are exposed, she is the only one who can help Tao take the blame. So for the sake of her own life, she won't reveal half a sentence.
……
Jiang Zhiming just woke up, only to see that Gu Yutang had already changed his clothes, took off his clothes that were wet with water on the ground, supported them with wooden sticks, and put them on the fire to bake. Then he touched his clothes and found that most of them had been dried, could it be that Gu Yutang helped him dry them with fire?
He wanted to get closer to Gu Yutang, but Gu Yutang's clothes were a little thin at this time, like a weak willow supporting the wind.
He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control it, so he pounced all of a sudden, and did those unsightly things with Gu Yutang, then his life would be bad. In order to prevent the heat in his body, Jiang Zhiming specially picked up the rainwater in the depression next to him and drank a few big sips in a row, which suppressed the heat in his heart.
Gu Yutang sat by the fire with a sluggish face drying clothes, Jiang Zhiming intended to tease her, picked up a dead branch next to her, and smashed it towards Gu Yutang's forehead.
Gu Yutang also saw Jiang Zhiming's actions on the other side, turned around, and avoided the dead branches smashed by Jiang Zhiming, "Jiang Zhiming, are you full and have nothing to do?" What are you throwing this thing at me? If we have nothing to do, we will go out and call someone, and call someone to come in and help us out! ”
Listening to the sound of rain outside, Jiang Zhiming didn't want to go out and become a soup chicken, so he immediately said: "My wife, I won't go, it's raining so heavily outside, you have to go by yourself." My wife will not be next to me, and she will try to murder her husband in a different way. ”
"Jiang Zhiming, even if the knife is being fired outside, you have to go out and call someone for me. I don't want to stay in this broken bamboo house any longer, there are water leaks everywhere, how can people live in this?" Gu Yutang said, and then stood up, wanting to drive Jiang Zhiming out to call someone.
When Jiang Zhiming heard this, he didn't get up, but continued to sit, "My wife, it's stormy outside, who would brave the rain and come out to look for us in the middle of the night?" Even if I shouted hoarse outside, I wouldn't call anyone. Let's just sit honestly and wait for someone else to come to us! ”
Gu Yutang opened the window and glanced out the window. Because the sky was not yet dawn, there was no light in the bamboo forest, it was still pitch black, and the only sounds that could be heard were the sound of the rain outside and the cries of rats in the house from time to time. Gu Yutang didn't want to sit still, picked up the candlestick beside him, stood up, and walked around to the small hall in the bamboo house.
There were several big holes in the roof of the small hall, which caused the small hall to be filled with deep water, deep enough to be used to raise fish and shrimp, Gu Yutang stood on the threshold, and did not get down to enter for a long time.
Although the door of the bamboo house was locked, it couldn't stop the wind blowing in through the crack in the door, and gusts of breeze blew, making the candlelight in Gu Yutang's hand flicker, as if it was going to be extinguished in the next moment.
Gu Yutang hurriedly protected the candle with his hand, blocking the gusts of wind, just as Gu Yutang was about to get off the threshold and go in to find Jiang Zhiming. Suddenly, he saw a pair of red embroidered shoes floating towards him, because there was no light in the room, relying on the candlelight in his hand, Gu Yutang vaguely saw the embroidered shoes embroidered with the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water.
The red embroidered shoes soon floated to Gu Yutang's side, and were blocked by the threshold at Gu Yutang's feet, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, and it was raining heavily outside, a pair of red embroidered shoes suddenly floated over, although it was very mad, but Gu Yutang himself was already a person who had died once.
I'm not afraid of death, but I'm still afraid of her lonely ghost?
Gu Yutang picked up the pair of red embroidered shoes from the water, the embroidered shoes were very exquisite, the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water on the top was embroidered with double-sided embroidery, and the surrounding area was also inlaid with jade, but after being blistered, a lot of jade had sunk into the stagnant water.
Gu Yutang's hand stroked the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and a picture suddenly flashed in his mind, which was a picture of a woman hanging herself.
A woman dressed in red gold, with a red hijab covering her weeping face, committed suicide in this room, and the red embroidered shoes on her feet were exactly the same as the ones in her hands.
The picture flashed, Gu Yutang was already scared, what was going on? Could it be that I really hit a ghost this time?
didn't have time to think about it, Gu Yutang lit it with a candlestick, and glanced at the scratched beam on the beam, which was the one in the picture in her mind, this was really the place where the woman hanged herself.
At this time, there were bursts of crying in the room, and there were ripples on the water surface one after another, Gu Yutang's eyes were dark, and he fainted without grabbing the embroidered shoes in his hand.
After a long time, Gu Yutang realized that he had returned to the room just now, Jiang Zhiming found a pot out of nowhere, and planned to boil some rainwater for Gu Yutang to drink, seeing that Gu Yutang woke up, Jiang Zhiming said: "Finally woke up, what are you going to do, madam?" I saw that you hadn't come in for most of the day, and I thought something had happened to you, so I went out to look for you, and who knew that you were already lying at the door of the house, and no matter how much I called you to call you, you didn't wake up. ”
"Jiang Zhiming, if I say that I just saw a ghost, do you believe it?" Gu Yutang drank the hot water handed over by Jiang Zhiming, and said word by word.
Hearing the words 'ghost', Jiang Zhiming was stunned for a long time, and finally turned his head to Gu Yutang and made a smirk, "My wife, are you telling a joke just now?" Your joke is not funny at all, I would like to believe that others hit ghosts, but my wife will never believe it. A person with sharp teeth like Madame, the ghost will bypass you. ”
"If you don't believe it, forget it, I'll tell you straight anyway! There used to be a woman hanging herself in this room, still wearing red clothes and red shoes, maybe she had become a ghost, trying to scare us. Seeing Jiang Zhiming's look of disbelief, Gu Yutang smiled and told what he had just experienced.
Jiang Zhiming listened to Gu Yutang's words, and was stunned for a long time, and finally said: "I remember, the lotus pond in Gu's mansion is connected to the Li family bamboo forest in Cuizhu Lane next door, and there is a fork in the road behind the lotus pond that is the road to the cuizhu forest." I heard the second grandmother say that Cuizhulin originally lived in the third aunt and wife of the Li family, and later the third aunt and wife of the Li family hanged themselves in it, and the bamboo house became a haunted house. The master of the Li family was worried that someone would trespass here, so he made this place a forbidden place, and there was no one in his spare time, and there were still people who recited the Sutra of the Past Here. ”
Seeing that Gu Yutang was unmoved, but still a little indifferent, Jiang Zhiming asked curiously, "Madam, aren't you afraid of ghosts?" How can you be so calm? ”
"Afraid! Of course I'm afraid! Who isn't afraid of ghosts? But if you are afraid that it will solve the problem, you will continue to be afraid! The people of this world are more frightening than the demons. Gu Yutang said this, but his body was already unconsciously moving closer to Jiang Zhiming.
The words she had just said were just for her courage, and her body was already trembling and telling her that her life mattered! The next one saved his life first.
Seeing that Gu Yutang deliberately approached him, Jiang Zhiming shook his head helplessly, his wife is really a dead duck with a hard mouth, obviously he is already so afraid in his heart, and he dares to say that he is not afraid.
